Random Question 13: Brooke Hogan: Head of the Knockouts Division. Thoughts? ODB: Yeah I thought that was kind of fun when she came in. I thought she was going to wrestle, I thought that was going to happen down the road. I think she could have handled her own in the ring. Shes a big girl, so I was kind of disappointed. I thought there was going to be a payoff and I thought she was going to get in the ring.
AS: Was that ever the plan? It seemed that her and Madison Rayne had a thing going on for awhile. ODB: Im not sure there was ever talks about it. Thats what happens. Stuff happens and youre like Umtheres no payoff and then it just goes away.
Random Question 14: What was worse: Daffney as Sarah Palin or Angelina Love as a zombie? ODB: Angelina Love as a zombie. I dont even think I was around actually. I think that was a time I left for a little bit, and was gone for the whole zombie thing. But I thought that brutal. I dont know where the hell that came from.
Random Question 15: Why were you brought back as a referee in 2013? Was there any reasoning behind that? Were you injured? ODB: No. It was one of those things where they didnt know what to do with you. But to me, I hate that line. Its just a BS line to me, when you say that to me you have nothing for me, that just doesnt sense. You can figure out something to do with my ass. So I was like Okay, you got nothing for me. You know, nobody likes to go to TV and sit on their ass. You want to work. Ask any wrestler. You dont just want to sit there and eat catering all day. I was getting frustrated and then they called and said Hey would you want to referee? And I was like You know what? Yeah. Because Im going to make sure I get involved in a storyline and I was thinking Well Im going to be at TV and every pay-per-view, so yeah, lets do this. And thats when I actually came about and made my own t-shirt. TNA made that T-shirt with my hand prints finally. So I got a shirt out of it. Yeah, Im kind of glad I got to ref, because I have so much more respect for the referees and what they go through, because those frickin ear pieces I wanted to rip out of my ear. You got like three people talking to you. I got yelled at a few times.
AS: Who was on the headset then? Was it Bischoff? ODB: No, Bruce Prichard was in my headset a lot. He got mad at me (laughs). At first they would announce me, but then I would run in, in between matches or commercial breaks, and theyd announce Heres your referee ODB so Im going through during a commercial break, and get in the ring. I remember Chavo Guerrero was heading up the ramp and I smacked his ass and Bruce is like Stop fing around Jess!
AS: But thats your gimmick! ODB: I know, but I had to tone it down a bit on ODB while I was reffing.
