The following are highlights from TNA World Heavyweight Champion Chris Sabin’s appearance on the Busted Open radio show on SIRIUS\/XM satelitte radio:<\/p>\n
On winning the TNA World Heavyweight Championship: “Yeah I mean I put in a lot of hard work over the years. I\u2019ve been with the company for over a decade. So it\u2019s been a long road and put a lot of miles on my body but honestly it\u2019s all been worth it. Just for that one moment, for that one moment in the ring, it was all worth it.”<\/p>\n
On if he expected for it to happen so fast after returning to TNA: “It did happen very fast and no I did not expect that. I came in\u2014I was coming back after two years being on the sidelines. So one of the things I tried to have was no expectations. And just try to do the best that I could, no matter what I was getting in. Whatever I had to do, just try to do the best I could because that\u2019s all I really could do. You never know how things are going to turn out when coming back from an injury like that. People haven\u2019t seen you in a while, it\u2019s kind of like you\u2019re starting over. So tried to go in there with no expectations man but it looks like some hard work paid off.”<\/p>\n
On how it felt to be in the main event of a highly rated Destination X edition of Impact: “It feels good but you have to keep that trend going. For it just to happen one time isn\u2019t enough, you need to keep that, do that consistently. So it\u2019s like it was cool that I was a part of the show that did a good rating but I would really like to be a part of the wave that continues and we consistently get that rating. And it wasn\u2019t just me you know what I mean? I think that it was an X division themed show, I think that had a lot to do with it too. And especially promoting the show as Destination X: free Pay-Per-View. I think that we just gave the fans lots of reasons to turn in. And hopefully that continues.”<\/p>\n
On all the issues going on right now in TNA and if he’s ever gone through something like this before: “Yeah, many times. Many times. I\u2019ve seen the company change, management actually, many times. Just throughout the years but that\u2019s just how it\u2019s always been. Writers change, people\u2019s jobs change, people come and go but it is weird every time because you get used to working with someone and use to seeing someone and then they\u2019re not there anymore. So it\u2019s like ahhh well what\u2019s it gonna be like when the next group of guys that are coming in? So you got to pick it up and start over with that too but I\u2019ve seen it happen many times and luckily I have seemed to stuck around the entire time so hopefully I can continue to stick around.”<\/p>\n
On what he would say to fans who are worried about the future of TNA: “Well. How bout this? I am the TNA World Heavyweight Champion and I\u2019m not worried. People have been saying they\u2019ve been worried about the company honestly since I started. There has always been that little whisper in the background like oh no how much longer is it gonna last? That\u2019s been going on since the beginning and you know what it is still here today. So even though I think this is maybe just another wave of little chatter and that\u2019s all it\u2019s gonna be. I think the company will continue to thrive.”<\/p>\n
