Alex Shelley told Kevin Eck of the Baltimore Sun that he approaches the veteran wrestlers in TNA for advice and ideas. "The veterans I always go to are Sting, [Kevin] Nash – Nash has taught me the most out of all of them," Shelley said. Kurt Angle is someone who’s always willing to help out. And Jim Cornette helps out [Chris] Sabin and me quite a bit, too, him being a tag team specialist and all. Those are the guys I always go to and I respect their opinion a lot. And they’re always very open-minded and give very constructive criticism as well.

"...Actually, I feel really bad that I didn’t mention Mick Foley when you asked about which veterans we should go to for advice and what not. Mick’s definitely one of them as well and he’s helped us out a ton, even though he’s only been with the company about eight months or so. He’s been awesome to work with. He’s a legend, he’s made a ton of money and he appreciates every kind of wrestling that’s out there, whether it’s Mexican or Japanese or American. And it’s just nice to see that from someone who’s been on top. He’s been nothing but great to work with." To read the full interview, visit Baltimore Sun's Ring Posts .com.

Powell's POV: Shelley also noted that he's in a band with Sabin and Petey Williams and a pair of non-wrestlers. You can check out the band's Myspace Page by clicking here. He also noted that he and Sabin had nothing to do with that hideous (my word, not his) entrance music that TNA uses for the Motor City Machine Guns.
