Shelley and Moose meet in street clothes with Tom Hannifan. Shelley is now the 3rd longest champion in the promotions history. Moose says he is no longer a character, he is now just himself, Moose. Both are asked by media if the there is pressure since this is the return of TNA. Both are not intimidated. Sean Ross Sapp asked what the rebirth of TNA means to them. Moose says Impact made TNA better. Not TNA will return and become even better. Shelley says he is a true original TNA member. He says he is the top of the mountain now, and won’t lose the title at this ppv. Shelley ask what his goals are. He says he wants to be dominate. He wants to prove he belongs to be the man. He will defend the title more and better. Moose was asked what it would be like to be the new champion, in this new version of the promotion. He says he will be a monster and bring it to an even higher place. Moose then says he will be the face of the company. Shelley takes issue with that.
