You might’ve already answered this, but with Mercedes going after the Women’s championship, what do you think are the tentative plans with the TBS Title?

I think that after All In, Mercedes Mone's character will have a "fall from grace." I do not think she is winning at All In, and I think the natural progression is her losing her titles one my one. I don't know exactly how or to who, but I think that's the way it goes.

What's one funny thing/angle in wrestling that always gets a pop from you?

I love verbal selling. I went to watch a little indie show in Morehead, Kentucky, and Ron Mathis was the star of the show. A great in-ring performer, but verbally, the dude was hilarious. I always implemented that into my work, and love it when a heel if verbally self depricating while selling. Carmella was so good at it in NXT, as well.

Do you think John Cena will turn face before the end of his run this year, and when?

I do. I don't think there's any real possibility that John Cena ends his career as a heel. Considering the quality of the heel run in general, I think that would be doing the wrestling world a disservice. Granted, a lot of what was planned likely changed as a result of the Rock's lack of involvement.
