ODB says OVW was one of her best experiences ever. Danny Davis and Al Snow let her work with the contracted wrestlers, and they were all together. Jack asks if ODB was surprised if WWE never brought her up form OVW. ODB said they always told her she didn’t look like a diva, and she is proud to be in TNA and WWE never gave her a shot. ODB said when WWE would tell her she didn’t look right it lit a fire under her. ODB talks about WWE not being affiliated with OVW anymore.

ODB says someone just asked her last night in the bar after a TNA taping. ODB is looking forward to getting in the ring with Gail Kim, and maybe teaming against Kong. ODB says her brother used to call her a dirty b*tch, and that is how she got the nickname. Her character developed more in OVW under Danny Davis. ODB talks about Ken Kennedy and Daivari teaching her a lot in her early years on the road traveling. Then Al Snow, Robert Gibson and Danny Davis taught her a lot in OVW. She tries to grab something from all the wrestlers she meets. ODB says she only did an MMA match because the money was good and she wanted gas money for her Raw try out. She wouldn’t mind doing it good, she thinks she would do good if she set her mind to it. A caller asks if ODB ever plans to get involved in the Eric Young and James Storm drinking feud.
