willingness to learn how to work. This segues into Jerry talking about his work as
a TNA agent. He felt that working as an agent put him in a bad position.
Jerry was at TNA since the beginning and he talk about how the company changed.
He brought up Vince Russo as a man who changed what they were doing when he

We ask Jerry about the state of the Indy world. Jerry thinks there are plenty of Indies

promoting their own shows enough. He goes off on people and message boards
and how it hurts the business on the Indy level.
Jerry is gong to Germany next month. This leads into a story about Lance Storm and

soon with more details but he said it was based on him earning money. He talks about

We mention everyone who gets cut from WWE gets signed by TNA and Jerry thinks
a majority of wrestling fans still don't know that TNA exists.
