A caller asks Traci Brooks what was is like to break into the business with Gail Kim and now be in the same promotion. Traci says it was tough splitting up after their first few years in the business together, now they are back together in TNA and are best of friends.
Jason also asks about Traci’s first appearance in TNA with Lolli Pop. Traci says dancing in the cage was the most horrifying thing to do. She still has the Catholic School girl outfit.
Traci talks about having a crush on Ricky Steamboat, and was amazed to work with him in ROH. He and Shane Douglas gave her a lot of good advice. Shane really taught her a lot about being a valet. Traci credits Shane for being where she is now. She learned when to shine and when to help cover things up, and when to stay low.
Traci talks about Elizabeth being the reason she got into wrestling. She hated her as a kid, and wanted to get into wrestling to kick her ass for not helping her man. Later on Traci realized how much Elizabeth really did, and wishes she got a chance to meet her. Traci compares Elizabeth and Socal Val, how they can get across such emotion in their faces. Traci tells a story about being knocked out by Jeff Jarrett’s guitar shot, and Socal Val crying backstage.
Jack asks if Traci is in the TNA Video Game. Traci says the knockouts taped a match for it, but only Christy Hemme will be a character in it. Next year she hopes they will be.
Traci says she is so happy to see how the Knockout division has been accepted. Traci has been with TNA since the beginning and had faith in the company, to see the Knockout Division do so well is so special to her and all the workers in TNA.
Jack asks if Traci feels proud to be in TNA, and about long time internet rumors TNA was going to close down. Traci says she loves reading negative TNA comments, it proves people are watching it. She says when people bash TNA it just fuels them to succeed.
A caller asks if the Eric Young and Robert Roode feud went on too long. Traci says no, both are great performers and it was perfect good guy vs. bad guy.
A caller asks about Curry Man. Traci says Christopher Daniels was great and she misses him, but Curry Man is very fun and makes her happy.
A caller ask who Traci’s favorite Knockout is to wrestle. Traci says she can’t answer that, she has a lot of history with Gail. ODB is her best friend and so charismatic. Awesome Kong is so strong. Jackie Moore is the toughest she has ever wrestled. Traci trained with Angelina Love.
Jack asks if it was a proud feeling seeing Kong vs. Gail Kim main event TNA Impact. Traci said she was in tears. Traci tells a story about watching the first Gail Kong match with Jim Cornette and Jim saying, “that’s girls doing that” in response to the fan reaction.
A caller asks if Traci prefers being a heel or babyface. Traci says both. She enjoys the babyface now quite a lot, and the turn was really good. Traci says it is hard being a face today because people want to cheer the heels. She did have fun being a heel and being booed, but she really enjoys fan interaction.
