1. What made you decide to become a professional wrestler?

I decided to become a professional wrestler because I was looking for something to do. I was always into sports, but I hated the structure of team sports, so I found something that I could do as an individual and not as a number.

2. What has been your most memorable moment in wrestling thus far?

That's tough, it would either have to be my recent dark match versus Gene Snisky or WXW's South Pacific tour. The WWE match was great but it was only one night, the tour lasted one month and had crowds that were nearly as big.

3. Of all the promotions you have worked for, which have been your favorites and why?

WXW without a doubt. It is a family environment and has a terrific setup for indy shows. It is also great because several wrestlers who are big elsewhere have passed through WXW including: Low Ki, Homicide, Slyk Wagner Brown and Sinn

4. Who are some of your favorite wrestlers to watch in action?

Rey Mysterio Jr, Chris Benoit, and Eddie Guerrero especially.

5. What is the best and worst thing about being a professional wrestler?

The best thing about being a professional wrestler is the freedom to do as you choose from night to night. Unlike other sports, I call all of the plays and wrestle the way I choose. The worst part is people really still don't understand what we go through. I've had countless injuries and am still paying a few medical bills and then I have to go to the gym and listen to some moron tell me what I'm doing is fake and dumb. God I hate people.

6. What has been your most embarrassing moment in the sport?

I really don't have one......Lord knows I've had some real barn burner matches with a few guys.....but nothing to get embarrassed over.

7. What advice would you give a youngster interested in getting into professional wrestling?

Get the proper training. I know that it gets expensive to go to wrestling school but having someone with inside knowledge of what it takes to make it in the business is priceless. How is someone going to tell you what you need to do to make it if they've never made it themselves?

8. What do you think of the current state of professional wrestling?

Most people think with the WWE as the only major company the quality of wrestling has declined but I disagree. With only one company, and only so many spots, independent wrestlers have to try harder to impress. This puts a certain degree of competition at the indy level, which makes its wrestling that much better. If a guy at the indy level "takes a night off", it could be an opportunity missed.

9. When you are not wrestling, what do you enjoy doing?

Lifting, sleeping, watching TV and sleeping some more.

10. Where do you see yourself in 5 years?

With luck and hard work, hopefully in the WWE. If not I will still be wrestling because I love it.
