SD- Your thoughts on Matt’s talk with Rashad regarding his shoulder and how that continued over the course of the show?

RN- I really didn't notice the talk with Rashad. However the whole team was always busting on Matt and his injuries.

SD- Your thoughts on Wes Sims’ unfortunate slippage in the shower?

RN- Wes Sims is a character, he needs some type of attention, so he could have made it all up or they were little Wes's going down the drain.

SD- What were your thoughts of Zak at that point?  Did he socialize much in the house?

RN- I really didn't talk much to Zak because he was on the other team up to this point because if you haven't fought yet you were the enemy.

SD- What were your thoughts when Rashad picked Justin Wren vs. Wes Sims?

RN- I thought it was great match up. I have seen Wes fight before and I told Justin how to beat him.

SD- Talk about Wren, he seemed like a real humble guy until the weigh-in anyway.

RN- Justin Wren is fighter that has a lot of potential, he has trained at the Olympic training center and trains with Season 4 winner Travis Lutter for jiu- jitsu. We saw what he did to Wes.

SD- Was there talk in the house about Rampage and his coaches?  Specifically not coming into the cage again after their fighter lost?

RN- Not really, we really didn't care about Rampage and his team except how they were all taken back by his antics.

SD- A very comical ending to the show, do you want to see Rampage vs. Rashad?  Do you think that fight will ever happen?

RN- I think it will happen, but Rashad and Rampage talking trash isn't really funny, when you see it every day in the house. It just gets old.
