Mr. Anderson was interviewed recently by Slam Wrestling about his upcoming participation in TNA Sacrifice 2012, and his time in the company.
On his match with Jeff Hardy:
Quote
"I think every encounter I have with Jeff is significant, I'm dealing with a guy who is, in my opinion, a living legend and is probably one of the youngest living legends we have in our business. He's somebody I completely looked up to when I was coming up through the ranks and I still do. We're all still fans of the wrestling business, we're the biggest fans out there. I'm a fan of Jeff Hardy. We're very competitive. We like each other, so that's always a challenge to wrestle each other when you're getting along, but I always enjoy getting in the ring with Jeff."
On changing back and forth from heel to face:
Quote
"There are things I wish could've been done a little bit differently, I probably wouldn't have chosen to make the switch so many times. I think last year I turned four or five times, maybe. It was a little hard for me to wrap my head around, but things have changed."
On wether he has any regrets from his TNA run:
Quote
"It's the wrestling business, you never know what to expect, you never expect anything and I came to learn that pretty early on in my career. They say believe half of what you see and none of what you hear in the wrestling business and I think that's pretty true. I've been pretty happy with the way things have gone in TNA. There's always room for improvement and I always look back at every single match and I don't recall a single one in the history of my career where I've sat back and said, 'That match was great, I love that match.' There's always something I'm critical of and I think you'll find that with most actors, athletes and most people who are just competitive in nature."
On his involvement with creative:
Quote
"...I don't take part in any of the creative, I don't want to be a part of that. I don't want to be one of those guys that sits in on the meetings and then books himself to do certain things. I try to just do what I'm told to the best of my ability. I'm a performer. I take what they give me and try to make the most out of it. I can always be better."
On improving:
Quote
"I just try to go out there and give them the best show possible and the best performance, hopefully they see, through my work and my work ethic, that I'm somebody they can put their faith in and put the company behind."
