Stephanie Vaquer

In this interview Stephanie Vaquer talks about potentially becoming Stephanie Two Belts at Roadblock tonight: “Maybe it’s weird, but for me, it’s different. I don’t think in championships and titles, where it’s more bigger or no. I just want to be the best. If to be the best, title, more title, more big title, it’s okay. But I want to be the best. For me, my focus, yeah, title means really big thing for me. But it’s not in my focus. My focus is being the best. I know that Giulia’s title is so important. My title, too. But I try to focus on match with Giulia and win. Not just about the title. It’s about who is the best.”

The latest episode of TNA Xplosion is here.

Chelsea Green talks about Nikki Bella: “I’ve shared some words with Nikki Bella. I feel likeā€¦ look. We’ve had a friendship for years, now maybe it is time to step in the ring and square off, face off. I don’t know! Vegas and WrestleMania in Las Vegas is just so special because I think anything could happen. We really don’t know right now, we’re on the Road to WrestleMania. We don’t know where this is going to go, what storylines are going to be put into place. I feel like the people want it. So, should we give them what they want?” (Do people actually want that? I definitely don’t. Put Green with anyone else.)

D-Von Dudley calls Hulk Hogan one of the biggest liars in wrestling (though I might argue he’s the biggest period): “Every story that he tells, I’m seeing on YouTube, you know. Hogan lied. Hogan lied. Social media is not helping either with this. So, it could be a combination of all of that. I just feel that Hogan did so much for the business, and it’s sad to see that everything he’s accomplished is now being tarnished. And again people say, ‘Well, it’s nobody else’s fault but his,’ and I get that. I understand that. But the same token, it’s just sad.”
