On Austin Aries showing up with the Impact Championship at ROH’s 16th Anniversary Show:

JI: Austin Aries is full of surprises because that surprised me as well! I would probably add to that, excited. In my opinion the more crossover there is between brands like Impact, Ring of Honor, Lucha Underground and New Japan the better it is for Johnny Impact. It creates a whole lot of opportunity for wrestlers and more demand for wrestlers that perform at the highest caliber, which I believe I do. I hope Aries takes the ROH TV Championship because I think he’s good enough to do it and if he does I hope he knows in the back of his vegan mind that Johnny Impact is going to show up there soon enough and take that roster to Slamtown.

On whose side he will be on when Impact Wrestling takes on Lucha Underground at WrestleCon:

JI: That’s a tough question, could it be Johnny Impact vs Johnny Mundo? The winner of that would be the fans. That would be an interesting match!

On if his fiance Taya will join him on whichever side he wrestles for, Impact or Lucha Underground:

JI: I like to look at Lucha Underground and Impact as the Marvel and DC Universes. In the Lucha Underground Universe Johnny Mundo and Taya are a thing but in the Impact Universe Johnny Impact and Taya Valkyrie have yet to become acquainted. Are we going to stay unified or not? At the wedding on June 1st in Los Angeles and elsewhere we are always together but in the place of business we are both going to do what is best for business. Wrestling is sometimes an individual sport and by that I mean I am going to do what’s best for me. I wouldn’t expect, or want, her to do what’s not best for her.
