Chris Jericho on WWE talent management:

"I don't see it that way. Wrestling is all about new talent and new turnaround of the stars. I could be the main event guy there for 20 years, but there's going to have to be other guys that come into that picture or else it's pretty boring and business will go really bad. There's only so much Jericho or so much HHH or so much Rock people can take. So you try different guys - some of them are bigger and don't really have the talent, they have more of the look. Some guys are small and go against the traditional WWE superstar, but yet are so damn good they make it to the top - I'm talking about guys like Eddie Guerrero, or even Shawn Michaels or Daniel Bryan right now. You have guys who would never be the typical WWE superstar, but because they were so damn good, they would rise to the top of the mountain. You have to realize that if you have 60 guys on the roster, the WWE is going to try and get every one of those 60 guys to world championship level. Some of them will make it, the majority won't, but until you try, you just never know. Everyone's got to get a full chance, if not, why are they even there on the payroll?" 

Ric Flair:

* He says he bought Cena his first beer.

* Then accused Cena of being afraid of him.

* Complained about never getting to wrestle Austin, (They were booked to wrestle at King Of The Ring in 2002, but Austin's walk out meant Eddie Guerrero got the spot).

* Mick Foley said he would have loved to have wrestled Flair, to which Flair jumped over him saying they wrestled at a SummerSlam and for TNA.

*** This is the one they are hottest about***

* When Daniel Bryan was asked about his favourite WrestleMania match, he joked he didn't feel like he belonged on the panel alongside the great names he was in company with, Flair was cutting in his response, saying...

''41 years of wrestling, you can imagine how I feel. Good lord, what would Harley (Race) say?''

*** WWE were furious that Flair diminished the guy they had booked to win (Although briefly) their top title, the next night***

* He mocked Mr. Perfect, talking like a child whilst impersonating him.

* He revealed a personal story about getting drunk with Jim Ross and his wife, and made somewhat disparaging comments about Mrs. Ross.

* He called Mick Foley a ''Human Jellyfish''

* He said he would be at Mania 30 with Austin, maybe spoiling Austin's return?.
