How did you come to being a
backyard wrestler:// Of all of the VCW locker room I probably have the most
experience when it comes to Backyard Wrestling. I've been doing it for about 6
years now. My friends and I used to plan out entire matches in character (ie WWF
workers) and do short 5 min matches because we couldn't remember that many
spots. It escaladed where around 5 years ago we had a Shoot Backyard League that
I always wanted to turn "worked." Then about 3 years ago I started up BTW
(Backyard Trampoline Wrestling) with a few pals and it was more gimmick based
than I prefer my wrestling to be but there were a few workers (alright, only 3)
who had a good base when it came to ringwork. Around 6 monthes ago I met Scott
Henson and tried out for VCW, and it's one of the best things i've done in a
long while... Little did he know that I'd be EVIL and would take over his
company and steal his belt... MUAHAHAHAHA
Why:// I've been watching
wrestling for 13 years, I've always loved it. Backyard Wrestling is just
something I love to do. And as Rukkus would say "It's something I do alot better
than alot of people" (joke, don't bitch)
Do you plan to go pro ://
Fuck No... I plan on not being on welfare as well... There's no money in
professional wrestling until you make it to the big time and my style doesn't
suit the "big time..." and I aint no conformist.
Tell me something about your
appearance :// May be the only world champion to wear glasses (so i'm told).
Seattle Mariners Hat, ICP T-shirt, Torn Blue Coveralls, My lovely Airwalk shoes
and of course the KICKPADS (not like you can actually see em' underneath my
coveralls but trust me, they're THERE)... I need to get me some Kneepads.
Your style of wrestling ://
I like to think that i'm pretty damn versatile in all my matches. My
favourite style is definitely technical or shoot. People out there who claim
their technical couldn't lick my airwalks... They don't fucking know what
technical wrestling is. Nothing's more fun that kicking and kneeing guys and
locking on the SWEET, SWEET Jujis... When it comes to working little guys I love
to do Lucha... I'm not exactly the fastest guy but I'm probably the most agile
Heavyweight in VCW (Diving Senton anyone?). Like Scott, I also like to whip out
the highspots on the little guys although I rarely do.
Are there any wrestlers in the
league you don't like :// Not really... There are some who I have my
differences with but none that I really don't like.
Toughest opponent ://
That's a real tough one... I think my most hard hitting match was against the
Man-Beast before he left and that was probably my favourite match I've been in
to date... However Getting a non-negative star match out of Scotty is a task in
itself, so I suppose he's the toughest (HA!)
Best Partner :// I've been
involved in 2 teams in VCW... Team Strongstyle & DARKSIDE BS-X... Strongstyle
last for one or two shows and I really enjoyed it but there wasn't enough
longevity in it for me to choose it. BSX is a great Team in VCW and me and Lenny
D work well together
Most spectacular match ://
Spectacular eh? Well that's a toughie... For stiffness it would be vs.
Man-beast, for technicality (if that makes any sense) it would be vs. Scott
Henson, my 2nd week in. For Dropping people on their heads? I dunno, I had a few
matches with Chris Mason and Bromine which I've really enjoyed and have led to
some awesome new spots occuring in VCW... Although it wasn't the best match, Me
vs. Chris Mason from the Event where it Rained a Whole Bunch was pretty cool for
the simple fact that I whipped out a Spanish Fly (WOO!)
Have you won any Titles ://
Current VCW Triple Crown Champion, I've held that Title for about 2 monthes
now and I beat Scott Henson for it at the old VCW Arena.
Is there anyone in the fed you
haven't rivaled with, and want to :// Well Rivaled is a tricky word... I
like to look at a Rivalry as a series of matches that our built to a big blow
off (usually with a gimmick)... I don't think I've faced anyone that much except
maybe Scott Henson. I wouldn't mind working a "rivalry" with Shane
*cough*Sweeney*cough* as well as Bromine, Both guys that I've helped train a
bit.
Any Last Comments? ://
Yeah, Backyard Wrestling is one of the more fun things that I do and I suggest
anyone who's thinking about it, try it out, make a ring, buy a trampoline
whatever... But be safe about it so we don't get a bad name (I hate mindless
garbage wrestling without a purpose other than senseless bloodshed, that's
what's wrong with Backyard Wrestling, that's the cliche). VCW is the best
Backyard Fed I've ever worked with really diverse talent and I look forward to
more and more expansion in the year 2002. Until then... Welcome... to... the...
DARKSIDE! |
