SD- How was it working with Phil Nurse?

RN- Working with Phil Nurse was bit different, he has a lot of different tricks than most striking coaches. His movements were very athletic movements so only a few of us had the coordination to do them.

SD- Did you partake in any of Darrill’s whiskey sessions?

RN- Darrill is one of those guys who can drink by himself. So no I did not partake in drinking fun.

SD- Your thoughts on Darrill stating he will drop to 205lbs and kick Rampage’s ass?

RN- Most of Darrill's fights were at 205 so he could get down there and fight Rampage.

SD- What were your initial thoughts on Schoonover vs. Zak Jensen?

RN- I thought it was good match up, because everyone in the house wanted Zak or Linderman.

SD- What did your team say about Rampage’s comments towards Schoonover during the fight selections?

RN- That he should have walked up on him again.

SD- How about Kimbo’s Shrek comments towards Zak?

RN- That was the funniest and stupidest thing I have ever heard. Zak’s name from now on is Linderman.

SD- Your thoughts on the Team Cocky painting and you holding the beer?

RN- I thought I looked the best but they had me drinking which I really don't do.

SD- How about Kimbo celebrating his teammate getting hurt in the open?

RN- This probably the best way to sum up Team Rampage's teamwork.

SD- What were your thoughts on Rampage messing with Schoonover’s dressing room door?

RN- Rampage trying to mess with Darrill was pitiful since it he did not know how to coach.

SD- How about Darrill’s performance?

RN- Darril performance was watching Rock-em Sock-em Robots until one of their heads exploded. It was good he won.

SD- What was the mood amongst your team after another victory?

RN- We were happy after rattling off another win - trying to get to the 8-0 spot.

SD- Your thoughts on Rampage continuing to talk trash even though his team is getting dominated?

RN- When Rampage talks crap he believes he can back it up for the most part, so when he doesn't he still keeps talking trash.
