TNA announcer Jeremy Borash was on Jim Ross' podcast "The Ross Report". Here are some highlights:

- Jeremy had high praise for Bob Ryder who gave him big break by pitching him for the WCW Live hosting duties. JB says he owes everything to Bob.

- Recounts Tank Abbott knocking him out legit with what was supposed to be a worked punch.

- Is friends with Mark Madden. He and JR put Mark over.

- Talks of being a long time Howard Stern fan and how it turned into him being featured on the show. A dream come true, he says.

- Jeremy details working in the UK on behalf of Impact.

- Ross tells JB, "I'm available, just so you know Jeremy", after JB says he'd like to work with him some day (Ross hinted the same, earlier).

- Jim kind of knocks Destination America and pumps up the move to POP. JB talks extensively about the move being a huge deal and then gets into internet critics.

- JB hints at a "new look and feel for the show" and indicates they have been hard at work in preparation.

- Jeremy gets excited and says it's a whole new beginning come Tuesday.

- Says the company does not get nearly the credit they should and proclaims that no one else has come close to the position they are in today, aside from WWE.

- Both men go on and on over EC3, Spud and the big angle where JB and Spud lost their hair. Ross was a big fan of the angle.

- Ross says "Dixie is smart to have you on the ground in the UK, Jeremy" and suggests the company expand further across the pond.

- McMahon and death of the territories is discussed, the AWA in particular.

- Jim brings up Robert Irvine and talks of hiring his wife Gail Kim in WWE to segue-way into JB's work with Robert. JB and Irvine own a production company together.

- Ross and JB again joke of calling a show together and how one must put in hard work and long hours to have longevity and success in the business.

- 1.5.16 will open hot and make a statement out of the gate, says JB, Expect fireworks, he promises. Borash says "everyone is bringing their A Game, believe me". Ross talks of it being a great opportunity for the company while Borash describes it as "fresh paint on a brand new canvas". The show will leave a lasting impression, proclaims Jeremy.

- Keith Mitchell is praised for his WCW work being so innovative.

- Jim says he wants the company to do so well and is eager to see the show on Tuesday. Ross wishes JB and the company "a hell of a show and all the success in the world" as they wrap the interview.

Jim Ross MLW interview yesterday contradicts a lot of things. JR doesn't want to return to commentating.

The stench of TNA is Gaburick,Borash,Ryder,Banks,Conway and Lagana. Once those guys are GONE, TNA can go on to greater things.
You forgot Corgan, some of those interview points was so lulzy.

And people will tune in, only to see the same horrible lighting, bad production and Josh Mathews commentary.

I'd believe what Borash promised if John "push her under a train" Gaburick wasn't around in the company. Letting a producer book your shows, no wonder people stopped watching...

I don't think you realise how very well liked and respected Borash is not just in TNA (please stop listening to Konnan). Gaburick isn't on creative but he decides what goes out on TV, agreed on the others though.
