TNA Wrestling star Josh Alexander recently spoke with Fightful on a number of topics including how he believes the promotionโ€™s current roster will do the TNA name justice.

Alexander said, โ€œOh, I wasnโ€™t supposed to be there for that video package and all that stuff. My VISA was supposed to be at a Japanese embassy, waiting to go to my first New Japan booking. Which, to me, the most important thing in the world. I got pulled aside, they made me sign an NDA and then the second I took my pen off that piece of paper that, they went, โ€˜Okay, you need to not go to the Japanese embassy. We need you to fly after Memphis to Nashville to film this. This is what it is.โ€™ I was like, โ€˜Oh, yeah. 100%. Iโ€™ll drive four hours to a different embassy or something to get a different appointment because I have to do it at this point.โ€™ Just goose bumps, man. IMPACT can be IMPACT and everything, and I was very proud of everything I was able to do and be apart of that company. That was a dream for me. But, at the end of the day, those three iconic letters, TNA, hearing crowds chant TNA throughout your match, to give you that adulation? Thatโ€™s something that 15 year old fan in me that tuned in for the first Wednesday night pay-per-view, thatโ€™s something Iโ€™ve dreamt of since I was 15 years old. To be able to have that transpire and to be where we are now with the full rebrand, I think itโ€™s not just me. I think a lot of people in this locker room and a lot of fans around the world, that just puts this thing on a different plane of existence. I think weโ€™re gonna do it justice โ€˜cause I think our locker roomโ€™s up to the task.โ€
