JOHNSON: I've been asked by some readers why ROH hasn't come out and derided Rob for the incident or apologized to their fans. Obviously you've been under a ton of stress the last few days, but do you think ROH as a company owes the fans an explanation or is it a personal issue that Feinstein needs to resolve? Do you think its fair for some of your fans to want that from ROH?
SAPOLSKY: You've said it right- it is a "personal issue" with him. It has nothing to do with ROH and RF Video or the people that work for both companies. I'm not sure what the people want to hear from us. We are so overwhelmed with everything. Rob is not with us and he doesn't benefit from either ROH or RF Video. That is what is the important point. That is what we are stressing. We have known Rob for years and years. I've known Rob since 1993. This has been difficult for us personally and professionally and I'm not about to start throwing insults around now. I'm focusing on pulling through this and moving on and making sure no one gets even more hurt.
JOHNSON: How do you feel about people making this an ROH issue then? The website that was involved in the situation has made it clear that they intend to target ROH and RF Video as long as they believe he is profiting off the companies.
SAPOLSKY: It's really disheartening people would make this a ROH issue. I understand why they are. They don't want any of their money to go to him and it won't. There are a lot of good people that depend on ROH for money, for exposure, for a good place to work. There are a lot of good people that take pride in what they've built here at ROH. It makes me sick that all these people have to suffer due to something that has nothing to do with ROH or RF Video. It was a personal thing. I understand their concerns, but you have to realize when you support ROH you support all the good people that have given so much of themselves to build this place. If Rob was involved our locker room would leave. It's that simple. He's gone. This is not an issue that should affect ROH. We have all worked too hard and sacrificed too much.
JOHNSON: Other than Bobby Heenan, have there been any other issues with talent over the situation>?
SAPOLSKY: None. Everyone is committed to making ROH work. We have all given too much to just lose it over something that has nothing to do with any of us. We all take a lot of pride in what we've done. I'll take our 35 shows and put them up against any 35 consecutive shows any promotion has ever produced and we all take pride in that and feel we have accomplished and built something and we are determined not to throw it away for nothing.
JOHNSON: There were rumors of issues with the Rexplex as well. Was that true and if so, have those been resolved?
SAPOLSKY: Everything is a go for next week and we will put on the most emotionally charged show you'll ever see on March 13th at the RexPlex in Elizabeth, NJ. This is going to be a night no one will forget. We all have a lot of emotions we need to get out and you'll see that in the ring.
