OIB asks if the rumors of Paul Heyman trying to get Gabe into TNA with him were true. Gabe admits their were some talks but says he wasn’t going to do anything to leave his post in DGUSA. Gabe believes that Dixie Carter dropped the ball by not giving Heyman the same role Dana White has for UFC.

OIB asks what Gabe thinks of Vince Russo’s booking. Gabe doesn’t really know what kind of restrictions of politics that Russo has to deal with.

Barbie asks who does Gabe believe will have a breakout 2011. Jon Moxley, Riccohet, Chuck Taylor and Brodie Lee are mentioned as guys who Gabe sees to have a huge year in 2011. Gabe says that it taked 6-12 months for guys to get over and several DGUSA wrestlers are in that timeframe.

OIB asks if Gabe would ever return to ROH. “Na.. that would take a lot of changes. That boat has sailed.”

James calls in and says that he believes that wrestling needs more characters. Gabe plugs CHIKARA as being a good company for characters.

Riren asks if Delirious ever had a big role in the ROH booking process. Gabe says he didn’t but that he took advice from all the wrestlers as he believes that is important.

Gabe plugs the iPPV and goes over a few matches that will be apart of the DGUSA show. Gabe believes the show will be very entertaining and that the show has a little bit of everything for the fans. Gabe also plugs the Rahway, New Jersey show on Saturday which is the final show for DGUSA for 2010.
