"I think that there were big plans for me going forward and part of me thinks it's a shame that we didn't get to go that route but the decision was a mutual thing and was strictly a business decision," D.O.C. said. "I really enjoyed the year I had with TNA. I got to work with some of my best friends doing the Aces and Eights thing and there's some really fine people there."
"But at the end of the day business is business. I had to weigh up my options in the business and opportunities I have, and I guess TNA were looking at where they were business wise," D.O.C. said. "We couldn't mutually agree on something that was good for both of us. The door isn't closed though and the parting wasn't bad or animosity on either side."
D.O.C. also talked about what's next for his wrestling career.
"There's some other thing I wanna do in wrestling and now I can go and explore that," D.O.C. said. He tweeted on the same day as the interview that he has a big announcement coming up.
