Wrestling Clothesline:
Taylor Nicole
1. What influenced you into getting involved in
professional wrestling?
TN: I have always loved watching wrestling on TV
growing up. But, like my father, I am a very
hands-on person. I like to take any of my
interests and try to actually perform it. So
after searching months and months for an
affordable wrestling school, I finally found the
SAW school in New Brunswick. I went down for the
free try-out that they were offering and did
really well. And the rest, is just history!
2. You've done a little bit of wrestling and you've
accompanied some wrestlers to the ring. Which do
you prefer, wrestling or the valet work? Which do
you plan on pursuing?
TN: I love doing everything when it comes to working
a show. I've done a lot of managing and
wrestling, but I also got to do some ring
announcing. I would love to pursue the wrestling
more then anything else though. But as long as I
can make people happy and entertain them, I'm
happy doing on a show!
3. What promotions have you worked for thus far?
Which have been your favorites? (and why)
TN: I've gotten to work for JWA, RCW, Soul Asylum
Wrestling, CCW, GWF, NWL, HoPWF. It's hard to
pick favorites, but I would have to say JWA, RCW,
and Soul Asylum Wrestling are my favorites.
JWA and RCW has a great group of people, and it's
always a pleasure to work with everyone that
comes out to work. Soul Asylum Wrestling is where
I first debuted as a wrestler. Jack and Elvin
Soul were my trainers when I first started, so
S.A.W will always hold that special place of
favoritism. But, then I also loved working NWL
and HoPWF shows as well because their locker room
is like one big family- and it's so nice to
feel welcomed when you walk into a locker room.
So, yeah. Like I said. It's hard to pick
favorites! HAHA!
4. Who are some of your favorite people to work with?
TN: I love working with Della Morte, the Diva Killaz,
and of course, Joe Rules. Della Morte was
the first person I wrestled outside of the Soul
Asylum group, and her and I have had some really
good matches. The Diva Killaz, Miss Deville and
Kayla Sparks, brought out the babyface side of me
when I manage them for RCW. And Joe Rules, my
manger, my trainer, and the love of my life-
enough said.
5. What wrestlers are you a fan of and do you enjoy
watching in the ring?
TN: As far as being a fan of the WWE, I like Chris
Jericho, Lita, Edge, Stacy Keibler, Batista, Hulk
Hogan, and Jimmy Snuka. For Indy wrestling,
(besides Joe Rules of course!) I love watching Rick
Silver, Della Morte, The Diva Killaz, Spade,
Handsome Hanson Johns, HollyHood, CJ Summers, Amy
Lee, Corvis Fear... and of course, I gotta mark
out of Ian Walsh! Haha!
6. As a female, in a predominatly male sport, are you
ever treated differently by other wrestlers or
promoters? Do you ever find it difficult to stick
with it?
TN: Women are always treated differently when it
comes to a predominatly male sport. Luckily, the
fact that I trained with mostly all guys over at
Soul Asylum helped hold my spot in the "wrestling
food chain". Promoters and other wrestlers have
given me the equal opportunity to do what I do
because I'm a strong girl. And a bigger one for
that matter! At one point wrestling did because
difficult for me to stick with. Since I trained
with guys, I had to be tough. And there was one
point in training where I thought my best wasn't
good enough, and I thought that I should give up.
But with the support of my peers got me
through.
7. Even though you've been in the business a fairly
short amount of time, is there anything you would
change about your career and involvement in the
sport thus far?
TN: I don't think I would change a thing- I like the
way the Soul Brothers trained me, I've enjoyed
the people I've gotten to work with, and I love
the way my new trainer, Joe Rules is training me.
I may have only been involved in this business
for just about a year now- but I've come a long
way. As far as involvement goes, I would love to
start working for more federations to get my name
out there.
8. What do you enjoy doing outside of the wrestling
world?
TN: I just moved into a house with Joe Rules. So
basically all of my outside enjoyment is based in
getting unpacked and settled in the new place. I
love to just hang out with my friends, have a few
beers, play some video games and cut it lose. I'm
a huge CSI freak and Joe has recently gotten me
into Survivor, so you would probably find me
watching those. And my newly found addiction,
tattoos!
9. What advice would you give to a girl who wants to
get involved in professional wrestling?
TN: Don't give up. Things are tough in this business,
but you have to just hold your head up high, and
strive for what you want. You can do anything, if
you put your mind to it, be strong and show the
world what you got!
10. Where do you see yourself in 5 years?
TN: In 5 years... I see myself still wrestling as
hard as I can, managing the best of the best, and
inspiring girls to become wrestlers.

| Welcome to Behind Closed Doors with Brietta.
Come with me now and meet Soul Asylum Wrestling's
Women's Champion, Taylor Nicole.
Brietta: Taylor Nicole, welcome to the Squared
Circle News. Thank you for agreeing to do this
interview. It's nice to meet you.
Taylor Nicole: The pleasure is all yours.
Brietta: Let's first get a few basics on you, such
as height, age (optional), hometown, and hobbies
away from the ring.
Taylor Nicole: I'm 22, 5' 7" and my weight is none of
your business. Joe Rules is my hobby away from
the ring. Take that any way you want! Oh, and
shining my Women's Championship belt that no one
else is ever going to hold. That's a hobby.
Brietta: How long have you been a wrestling fan?
Taylor Nicole: A few years.
Brietta: What, or who, inspired you to get into wrestling?
Taylor Nicole: The Ayatollah of Rock N Rolla, The
King Of The World, The One Sexy Beast, Chris
Friggen Jericho! Oh, yeah. And Lita too.
Brietta: Is this something you've always wanted to do?
Taylor Nicole: I'm the type of person that sees what
she wants and gets it. The Soul Asylum Wrestling
Women's Championship?? Mine. Joe Rules?? MINE! So
yes, I always wanted to wrestle, and let me
tell you, buddy, this business was nothing until
I came into it.
Brietta: I understand you are a Glory Girl? What do
you think Glory has done for your career?
Taylor Nicole: G.L.O.R.Y has created a profile that
people can look at so that they have a reason to
fear me.
Brietta: What was your first time stepping into the
ring like? Was it everything you had thought it
would be?
Taylor Nicole: Yes, it is everything I thought it
would be. The first time I stepped through those
ropes, I knew that it was only a matter of
minutes before I became one of the BEST women's
wrestler this world has ever seen.
Brietta: Who did you wrestle the first time, and what was the outcome?
Taylor Nicole: Alexa Thatcher..... my most hated
enemy. She was out there dancing with those
stupid Soul Brothers.... *growl* The match ended
after I hit her with the trash can. For some
reason, that damn ref thought I was cheating!!!
ME?! Taylor Nicole?!?! CHEATING?!!! I THINK NOT!
Brietta: Joe Rules is your fiance. Is he also your
manager? How is he guiding your career?
Taylor Nicole: Yes, he is my manager. What is he
doing for my career?! He is teaching me how to
heel out on these interviews that I have to do.
Oh yeah, and he's good in bed too! Gotta get my
cardio in daily.
Brietta: Are you heel or baby, or does it matter?
Taylor Nicole: See above. You tell me. I dare ya!
Brietta: Who trained you to wrestle, and what was training like for you?
Taylor Nicole: Those damn Soul Brothers with their
little stupid hats and there stupid little shiny
sunglasses, doing their stupid little flips and
splits and stuff. So I stopped training with
them, and now I am trained by the one, the only,
the diabolical one, JOE FRIGGEN RULES!
MUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
Brietta: Who are your biggest allies in wrestling?
Taylor Nicole: Joe Rules, Brian Mitchell Foster, and
Liz Savage. And when the four of us are together,
expect mass chaos, PAL.
Brietta: Who are your biggest enemies in wrestling?
Taylor Nicole: Oh, where do I begin.... How about
Alexa Thatcher! *growl* or maybe Melissa
Stripes?! And her little "tag team" ways with
Alexa! Trying to knock me out to try and take MY
TITLE!! OH, AND HOW ABOUT THOSE DAMN SOUL
BROTHERS?! OR MAYBE THE DIVA KILLAZ! WITH THEIR
LITTLE "GIRL POWER" AND FEATHER BOAS!! OR HOW
ABOUT THAT CRAZY FROG DANCING FOOL- SECTION 8 AND
HIS HAIR PULLING WENCH MAJOR BURNS?! HOW ABOUT
JOHN JUSTICE?! HOW ABOUT TRINITY H. CAMPBELL?!
ALLISON DANGER?! FERRARI?! *takes a deep breath*
I don't have enemies.....
Brietta: If you could wrestle anyone in the WWE or
TNA, who would it be and why?
Taylor Nicole: Friggen Maria. Because she's a ditz and
she irrotates me. And probably Jericho and
Lita too. They created me, now I'll destroy them.
Brietta: Where can fans find you on the web?
Taylor Nicole: Just type in "The BEST Female
Wrestler" on Google.... or if you're stupid and
can't find me there, just go to
http://www.taylornicole org
Brietta: Just for fun, what has been the funniest
thing to happen to you while managing or training?
Taylor Nicole: The funniest thing was when I was
training-- one of the wrestlers turned to me
after receiving a body slam to inform me that he
just peed his pants. It was amusing. Or how about
the time that I was wrestling one of the Divas
and she told me that she was about to crap her
pants? Yes, bathroom references are the best!
Brietta: How about the scariest?
Taylor Nicole: I am the scariest thing. I cut a promo
on myself in the mirror once... pretty damn scary!
Brietta: What do you like the best about your career?
Taylor Nicole: After only training for 2 months, I
had my first match. And only after working for 2
more months, I captured the Soul Asylum Wrestling
Women's Championship. Damn, I look so
good in gold..... And I met my fiance' through my
career... so thats good.
Brietta: How about the least?
Taylor Nicole: I was pissed off that they closed Soul Asylum.
Brietta: Taylor, we give the stars we interview a
chance to say whatever they want about the
wrestling business. This is your time. Shoot...
Taylor Nicole: Listen closely... What ever you do...
do NOT leave your wallet in the locker room.
Enough said.
Brietta: Taylor Nicole, thanks again for agreeing to
this interview. Good luck in your career.
Taylor Nicole: I don't need luck! But thanks.
