Here are some of the highlights from the interview conducted by The Big Mosh & Blade:

Cary's thoughts on WWE Hall Of Famer, "Mr. Wonderful" Paul Orndorff & him possibly coming to ROH: "We never really had any communication with him. We love having the legends -- even this past year we had Jim Cornette, we had JJ Dillon, we had 'Cowboy' Bill Watts, and then as far as legends go, having Bruno Sammartino in New York City. We'd love to have Paul Orndorff come sometime, and that's a good suggestion."

His thoughts on how they will work with the TNA talent through '07: "We have a good relationship currently, and we have Homicide as well as the other guys that are booked through them now like Samoa Joe & Austin Aries. We have no problem, and they will be featured on our shows through 2007."

His takes on the Bryan Danielson/Homicide title match at the last show in 2006 in NYC ("Final Battle"): "The match itself was a phenomenal contest -- it was a long match, 35 minutes. These are two of the best workers in the world. The atmosphere in the building was electric, and being the last match of the night the fans have seen a long night of wrestling. It was a hot crowd throughout, and you really have to see the match." He then compared Homicide's victory to the Yankees winning the World Series, being in front of his hometown crowd.

On when Danielson will be back in 2007: "He's not going be with us for the next few months. He's going to Japan in April, and he will be returning as far as we know in May."

On whether Ring Of Honor will ever do shows in Canada: "There's a chance. We are on The Fight Network in Canada. It's been talked about, although there's nothing solid at all. We were assisted with the UK deal by Alex Shane. He had the buildings ready, he had the publicity ready, he had things like visas, & these other technicalities ready so it made the whole thing a lot easier business wise. I don't really know how difficult it will be to run a show in Canada. Our plate right now is full -- we have 44 shows or so scheduled for 2007, although all the dates & all the cities are not fully confirmed. But as I mentioned earlier, the first half is set up. But if anyone knows someone who could help us in Canada & Toronto, and if it makes sense for us to go there/where we could draw a decent crowd, we'd be happy to go."

What are the factors in determining where to go for the company: "We can see where the sales are coming from. We cannot fly everybody to every city, so you need certain guys that are near it that can drive, and then have a number of fly-ins, as well as you have to fly in the office staff -- all of these things are factored in. Obviously, what kind of building there is, can we draw, so on and so forth. A lot of times we just roll the dice and hope for the best. In all due respect, we've tried Buffalo, we've tried Cleveland -- sometimes they work out sometimes they don't."

The Mayhem & Cary then promote the ROH 5th Anniversary shows in NYC/Philadelphia in February, the WrestleMania weekend shows in Detroit in April, and Cary then ends the interview with a story about the former member of The Bushwhackers, Luke Williams, that has to be heard to believe!

More goodness is included in this 30+ minute interview with Cary including: how he feels returning to the United Kingdom for another tour, the WrestleMania weekend shows in Detroit, MI, & much more! For more information on Ring Of Honor log onto www.ROHWrestling.com.
