James then hypes the return of next week's Raw Insanity.  The night after "Night of Champions" is "Night of Insanity."  Fresh roster – fresh Raw Insanity.  While it might not be back on a weekly basis, it will be back on the 30th.

 

With that, we listen to clips from Dawn's 44 Minute ClubWWI.com shoot.

 

James Guttman welcomes Dawn Marie to the show and asks how life is by her.  She says she's adjusting to being a real person again and enjoying time with her family.  After so long on the road, it's hard to get back to being at home, but she's making the transition well.  She misses the fans, but she's really enjoying the time with her son.

James asks about TNA.  It seems odd that Dawn isn't with them.  Is there a chance she might pop up?  Dawn Marie answers:

 

"I have no idea.  It's been so back and forth and back and forth.  I'm hoping.  I'm crossing my fingers, but to tell you honestly at this point – I don't think so.  I don't think it's going to happen.  If it were going to happen, it would have happened already.  Maybe there's something going on there that I don't know.  Maybe I pissed somebody off.  Maybe someone doesn't want me there.  I don’t know.  I honestly – and I'm not trying to stir trouble – I don't know why I'm not there.  I was told they were going to bring me.  It never came to fruition."

 

Dawn notes that the company is hiring female wrestlers.  She specifies that she's not putting herself over, but feels that a girl "from the Indies is not as qualified for the job as I am."  She wishes she had an answer for James because then it would make sense in her own head, but there isn't one.

"In my eyes, I just feel like if I'm not there yet, it ain't gonna happen because the window of opportunity has opened and shut many times."

 

Guttman says that many past guests have a similar situation where they've spoken a bit to TNA, but never arrived.  Dawn explains that her situation is even more in-depth than that.  She spoke to them for "years" and hopes that they give her a call to join. 

 

"It took me a while to get to the point where I could talk about it without getting upset, but reality is reality."

In the final clip from the shoot, Dawn speaks about the work she's doing to battle RDS – an illness her sister-in-law is fighting.  It creates a feeling of burning all over her skin.  In an effort to raise $50,000 for her to have an operation in Mexico, Dawn has a link to donation information on her Myspace Page, DawnMarieOnline.com, or you can go directly to http://carriedeussingrsd.webs.com
