* WhatCouldHaveBeen: He could have been hired by WWE, as he was liked by both Vince [=McMahon=] and the rest of the locker room, but Vince was worried New Jack would hurt someone. In fact, New Jack was intended to be revealed as the assailant for Cena in an angle in 2004, but management decided against it for Cena's safety. He was also asked to be part of Wrestling/TheNationOfDomination, but he refused as he believed he would have overshadowed Wrestling/RonSimmons with his mic work.

* FriendshipOnTheSet: He had nothing but good things to say about Wrestling/DawnMarie, Wrestling/MollyHolly and a few other people he shared rides or hotel rooms with.



* HostilityOnTheSet: Too many for all of them to be named but notable examples are Tazz, Miss Hyatt, Wrestling/JimCornette, Jasmine St. Claire and a lot of other people. He has said the reason he didn't like Tazz was because he was pretending to be tough and that when he tried to step to him, Tazz turned and ran from him backstage during an altercation. He also apparently didn't get along with Wrestling/TheDudleyBoyz, claiming they ripped off his attire and the intro to his theme song.
