Interview concerning the Booting of Mike Paciga from HOH...From both sides here's what they both had to say about it... Here's Harry Maitlands side of things... V Squad7: All right then. Let's start the interview...:-) FthrHorror: Ok:) V Squad7: First question...what do you say to Mike Paciga's claim that he is a better all-around manager in the IWA? FthrHorror: My view is this. I don't sign tag or six. I don't even have 3 guys in any 1 league to sign six. I sign usually 1 regional per guy per league, and see how it goes. He can claim that if he chooses, I don't sign those because I never felt the need to impress anybody with being the greatest "all-around" manager. But, with my new angles I have started to sign a couple tags, so we'll see how that goes and Paciga can see if he can claim the same a few months down the line. That is, if he's still around. V Squad7: Yeah...kind of funny he claims to be better at six-man when you don't even have any six-man matches usually...LOL V Squad7: Why do you think he really backed out of the series with you? FthrHorror: He's seen what I'm capable of, and will never admit it. I beat Steve Beckwith, a manager with more accomplishments than Mike P., in 4 out of 5 feds and into retirement. I am currnetly beating Zach Mercier, another manager with more talent than Paciga, in his best fed by a 3-0 margin. Paciga knows that he wouldn't stand a chance. Of course, he'll tell you different because he won't admit it. After all, that would reveal the b*tch in the Infamous One. V Squad7: So why do you think Paciga actually talked about tag and six-man when he knows he signs a shitload more of those kind of matches than you? And do you think he would really have the series if you had tag teams or six-mans or do you think he would come up with another excuse? :-) FthrHorror: I was never very good at tag, I'd pull good cycles, same with six, but I never had the patience to order the holds. He'd probably take it, but I'd take more time with it, and he may be surprised at the outcome. FthrHorror: Take it as in accept, not win. V Squad7: Yeah...it does take more time with Tag...Yeah, "Take it in as accept, not win"...:-) V Squad7: Now while we're on the subject of Tag I don't really seem to remember Paciga winning any Tag belts in the Leagues I was in...which ones was he talking about (for his tag scores)? FthrHorror: I've seen him with TV tag in a couple leagues. V Squad7: which ones? FthrHorror: Not sure. I don't follow his "career" much:) V Squad7: Understandable...what about this INSIDER guy he talked about? I for one think it is a gimmick...what do you think on that? :-) FthrHorror: Insider? I don't know. Gimmick or not, I'm not concerned with it. I haven't given it much thought. V Squad7: Well in discussing this with Billy we thought it was just a ploy to try and cause dissention among HOH...which obviously didn't work because we're such a cohesive unit...what do you think makes HOH better than the average stable in terms of teamwork and communication? FthrHorror: Well, since alot of the members are new, the teamwork and communication is still jelling, but with the others who have been in for a while, we all keep pretty much updated. HOH is home to me in the IWA, and I think it rubs off on the others:) V Squad7: About the HOH performance in the OEL...do you think this is the start of us coming together and taking more belts than before? :-) FthrHorror: The HOH's performance in the OEL was the last hurrah for Pat Brooks as an HOH'er. Either he sent that before he left HOH, or the IWA didn't change the initials. Our performance there will go in an upswing once we all get organized in the new roster. V Squad7: Yup...I'm predicting a better cycle in Gold this cycle :-) By the way, what do you think HOH's best Fed is or do you think there is a "best one"? FthrHorror: I don't really think there is a best one. FthrHorror: Gold should be interesting:) V Squad7: Yup...:-) So what do you think about this new Paciga group...the OUTSIDERS? Why do you think he's hiding their identities? Do you think he's making it up...or do you think they're embarrassed to be in his group? LOL FthrHorror: Some are from outside the IWA, coming in from other PBM's, I don't think he's making it up, I just don't think he has anything more than the other decent stables out there, if even that. V Squad7: Yeah...I know it was hard for me to switch from the PWA-game style to the IWA-game style...Do you beleive Paciga about the "More titles than HOH in the IWA report thing"? It doesn't sound possible if they're from other games :-)... FthrHorror: With Paciga, you never know what to believe. Its best just to not care:) V Squad7: Sounds like the right attitude...He usually mixes the BS in with the real stuff anyways... V Squad7: So I asked Paciga this earlier and he gave me a questionable answer...But why was Paciga kicked out of the group...you guys know better than me because I'm not online as much :-) What kind of stuff was he doing in other words? V Squad7: I do know it was something to do with him leaking information that shouldn't have been leaked, but were there other reasons as well? :-) FthrHorror: Well, he was recruiting managers heavily and at length, yet never told me about any of them. He leaked some info, but nothing too damaging. He says we accused him of leaking that Lysoby was voted down. What went down was he told others of the vote before it was even completed. Not that it matters much. Also, he was referring to HOH as "his" stable, and when reminded of me by others, he seemed to play me off. I confronted him on the phone about accusations he was looking for "the next big thing" FthrHorror: while in HOH, and he blew it off, as he did other questions I asked him. He too wanted to get John Kruse out of HOH, don't let him lie to you. he wanted to get John to retire. V Squad7: When I talked to him before he sounded like he wasreally upset about Kruse getting kicked out...What's your opinion of people who "make up stuff" to make them selves look good? :-) FthrHorror: It was just his actions were shady, and we knew he was up to something. FthrHorror: Mike is a PRO at that. FthrHorror: :) V Squad7: I've heard a few people say that Mike was trying to break HOH apart from the inside...Do you think he was trying to do that or exactly what do you think he leaked stuff for? FthrHorror: I wouldn't doubt it. Mike is still trying to stir trouble within HOH. FthrHorror: It won't work, and if it does, to those that leave, don't let the front door hit you on the a$$ on the way out the House!:) FthrHorror: lol V Squad7: My opinion exactly!!! HOH4EVER!!! FthrHorror: HOH!!! V Squad7: Well I guess that's all I had...anything else you wanted to add? FthrHorror: :) FthrHorror: Well, in closing... FthrHorror: Don't believe the HYPE, and trust me, that's all The Infamous One Mike Paciga is... FthrHorror: And watch out for HOH in 98!!! V Squad7: HELL YEAH!!! HOH!!! FthrHorror: HOH!!! Here's Mike Paciga's side of things... > > V Squad7: So how would you like to do an > interview for my article on D'IWA Page? > V Squad7: No strings attached...:-) > InfamousMP: Sure thing. > V Squad7: Then let's start it... > V Squad7: So Mike...we all know you were in > HOH before... > V Squad7: What do you feel towards the other > members? > V Squad7: Do you hate them all or just some of > them? > InfamousMP: Outside of the game I am fine > with them.

I thought he would accepted because he > hates looking like a bitch. He cares about what > people think of him too much . > V Squad7: Yeah...but he wasn't in some of the > Leagues...did you think he would make all those > wrestlers just for a series? :-) > InfamousMP: If he really had something to > prove, he would. Like I said, he hates to look > like the bitch, he would do anything to prove that > opinon wrong. > V Squad7: So if I challenged you to a > series...and you had to create like 5 or 6 > wrestlers to do it...would you accept? > InfamousMP: Would I? If you challenged me? > No, because I have nothing to prove. I have won > more and done more. But if something big > enough was put on the table, then I would. > V Squad7: Same here... > V Squad7: What is your record in series so far? > InfamousMP: And I think my offer was definatly > big enough. > V Squad7: What was that offer to refresh my > memory? > InfamousMP: I have only lost one series. That > being to Russ Borris. I have deafeated people > like Jerome Arroyo, Fritz Capp, Gene Boyer, > Mike Gasperoni, etc. > InfamousMP: Best of 7. All 5 feds. Singles > Tag and one 6-man. 11 series. When I won, he > would have to do what I say. If I said leave > HOH, he would have to do it. If I said join SA, > he would have to do that. His stipulation, if he > won, was up to him. > V Squad7: I've only had 3. I won them all with > only one loss ( I won 4-1-1)...being to Kosta... > V Squad7: Wow...that's a pretty big challenge. > V Squad7: What about the challenge from Harry > Maitland? Apparently you didn't accept that > one...why was that? :-) > V Squad7: Was it the stipulations? :-) Or did you > feel you had nothing to prove? What was it? > InfamousMP: It was only singles. Harry has > shortcomings in this game (tag and 6) and what I > want is to prove who the COMPLETE manager > is, not just in one area. I gave him the same > series as I did to Cardella, he also backed down. > V Squad7: So you would have accepted if it > included Tag and 6-man you're saying? Are you > also saying Harry is better in singles or no? :-) > InfamousMP: Am I better in singles? Yes. But > I would also like to show that I am better in ALL > parts of the game. If it was singles, I would win > 4-1 or 3-2, if you put tag in, it ain't even close. > Harry is a one area manager, while I can do it all. > V Squad7: Well this is a little off track but what > do you think about the other members of HOH > besides Harry and Mike C...including myself? > InfamousMP: I could really care less. Everyone > knows my opinion on Boyer. Adkins is ok, > turned on me. You are a decent manager, could > talk trash. I got you into HOH, you decided to > stay. Same with Nace and Akers, except they > can't write comments. Day was outnumberd in > everything, he is still cool with me. Am I > forgetting people? > V Squad7: A few but that's cool...I just wanted a > general opinion anyways...What do you think > about my GAME in the IWA strategy wise? > Singles, Tag, and Six-Man...What about > comments? Why do you think I'm a good > manager? > V Squad7: Tell the truth now...I don't care either > way really :-) > InfamousMP: You do good strats and write a > decent comment. You are better in 6 then in tag. > I haven't seen you do much in tag. You have > your own style, I thought you were more of your > own thinking then I do now, but that is all. > V Squad7: Yeah...I am better in Six-man...but > that's because I don't sign much Tag matches > also... > V Squad7: What did you mean when you said "I > thought you did more of your own thinking..."? > InfamousMP: Well, when the HOH thing went > down, I expected, as my friend and the man who > got you in the group, you would stick up for me. > You didn't. > V Squad7: Isn't staying in HOH doing my own > thinking? :-) > InfamousMP: You seem to occupied with > making sure your stablemates are happy with > your opinion. > V Squad7: So you thought I would stick up for > you...but let's get into the reason why you were > kicked out of HOH. What did you feel the > reason was? > V Squad7: Just to compare...:-) > InfamousMP: Jealousy. They were mad that I > made the group a hit. They "thought" I was > leaking, but I never did. It goes deeper. > Cardella was jealous of being called my shadow > and Harry was made I got all the credit. > InfamousMP: And I did deserve that credit. > V Squad7: So you say you never leaked any > information...:-) What exactly would you classify > as Information that could be leaked? > V Squad7: Do you mean > Recruits...addresses...what were you accused of > leaking at that time? :-) > InfamousMP: That James Lysoby got voted > down for HOH membership. The DF, which I > have showed time and time again was > Brunk/Cooper. > InfamousMP: And saying that someone got > voted down is NOT leaking anything. > InfamousMP: It was a poor excuse to start with. > V Squad7: Deciding Factor? Why Brunk and > Cooper? > V Squad7: So was there anything else to add to > the reason? > InfamousMP: Brunk was supposed to be the > DF, when he decided not to go with it, he told > Coop. Nope, nothing else to add. > InfamousMP: Except that The OUTSIDERS > won more titles in the IWA Report this month > then HOH did. > V Squad7: So let's get into what you're doing > Stable-wise now...who's in the OUTSIDERS? > V Squad7: If you want to say :-) > V Squad7: And what did you win this cycle? > InfamousMP: I can't say, although the person > we kicked out, Acer S.C. (Shaun Cochrane) told > a few of the members, he didn't even get the tip > of the iceberg, because we didn't tell him the > whole thing. If I told you what we won, you > would know the members : ) > V Squad7: OK...So let's get into what you said > before...that you think HOH won't allow my > brother in...what would be different with the > OUTSIDERS...would you have let him in? :-) > InfamousMP: Yes, we would have. And if he > doesn't get into HOH, maybe we will take him. > V Squad7: Even though you don't know him? :-) > V Squad7: So you're saying you would trust my > opinion... > InfamousMP: See, we care about our members > opinons.

No. If we talked > and set something up? Maybe. But I would > need complete cooperation from you. > InfamousMP: Would I recruit them? Sure, I > would look into it. > V Squad7: Cool... > V Squad7: What's your opinion on Huge stables > like SA that recruit anyone and everyone? > V Squad7: I've seen it first hand in the RVL :-) > V Squad7: They recruited one guy and he's now > 2-7 and got like a 477... > InfamousMP: If they can control it, then good > for them. I have been saying that The > OUTSIDERS are 10 people big. You already > saw that we lost one.
