Carter on how often Corgan will work with TNA: “This won’t be a side job. I talk to him more and we correspond more than most of my employees here.”

Corgan on if he’ll be an on-air character: “I don’t need fame. I have plenty of fame. It’s really about the talent.”

Corgan on how TNA can be different: “We need stars that are wholly identified with TNA only and maybe telling the types of stories that maybe have a different edge to them so that people will identify them as TNA-type stories.”
