Miami Herald interview

Interview0 Comments

Cena talks to The Miami Herald about his personal relationship airing on television.

  I really wanted the show to be a success. I truly love Nicole, and I believe in her. It was a conscience decision for me to do it. I think our viewers will enjoy the second half of the first season that’s coming back in mid-November on the E! network. As the show grows, it gets better and more interesting to watch, and I think fans will enjoy it this time around

Between the Ropes interview

Interview0 Comments

Big Show talks to Between the Ropes about crying on television and John Cena.

 Everybody was real supportive and I did the scene and the director said it was good and what he wanted. Then I went to my trailer and then for about 45 minutes in my trailer I could stop balling. And I called my buddy was like dude was is wrong with me? Did I break something? I’m blowing snot bubbles, crying, hyperventilating. What is wrong with me? He said that’s what actors do. When they create a channel to that emotion, then they can tap into it and use it at any time. The weird thing is I’m a seven foot, 430 pound killer monster giant but to show an emotional side is actually a different dynamic for my character

Steve Austin Show interview

Interview0 Comments

Prichard is a guest on the Steve Austin Show to discuss his early days in wrestling and the world of professional wrestling and not being recognized in public.

I had real long hair and I’d slick it back and wear the make up and when I went out, my hair was down and lighter and most people wouldn’t know who the hell I was.

The Art of Wrestling interview

Interview0 Comments

South is a guest on The Art of Wrestling to discuss wrestling in the 80’s and almost quitting wrestling training early on.

I was bleeding from my nose, I ripped my blue jeans, I threw up. The old guys got a hold of me and they tied me up and left me in a corner. they were laughing. They didn’t want you in the business. Back then the older guys thought, “If I let this kid in… he’s gonna take my spot.” I crawled out, jumped in my old trans am and left. I said I’d never go back and I hate professional wrestling. The next day I got off work and I went straight back.

James talks to Temple-News about being done with professional wrestling and her singing career.

It’s certainly not the last time you’ll see me on television in a wrestling ring. I’m far from done. When I retire, I want to retire the right way. That’s what we all hope for, right?

Forbes interview

Interview0 Comments

Luger talks to Forbes about steroids in professional wrestling and alcoholism.

I thought the drinking and the pills were more of a social thing that I did with the rest of the guys. Back then, it was a work hard, play hard mentality, Dan. So none of us felt we really had a problem.

Busted Open interview

Interview0 Comments

Mangus talks to Busted Open Radio about TNA using social media and focus.

People think because that they watch a few DVD’s that document one part of history and how the business went and they are able to predict what’s going to happen in a completely new set of circumstance and I tend to ignore it and I don’t really give it much thought. These are basically the people that throw something out there with no filter because they are nobodies and I’m not trying to knock anyone.

MLW.com interview

Interview0 Comments

Konnan talks to MLW.com to talk about Michael Hayes’ heat in WWE.

I was a huge Michael Hayes fan, Freebirds fan, when I was growing up, when I used to watch him in Atlanta. Every time I’ve seen Michael, he’s always been very cool with me backstage. But having said that, I will say this, he does have a ton of heat with people. I do know a couple people that told me that if they got fired they would kick his ass before they left the company. And I just found out today that he did get mega heat I guess for having drinks with Rosa [Mendes]. So much so, that he might be replaced. Boom.

Michaels talks to WWE.com about Daniel Bryan and his first impression of him.

Heck, I knew at first glance what a talented young man he was. He came in good, for heaven’s sakes. His work ethic, his integrity, his dedication, all of that stuff was all phenomenal from the get-go. And honestly, he had an understanding that it was going to be tough. He knew it was going to be a long road for him, and none of those things bothered him. He had a fantastic attitude absolutely every day, day in and day out.

Ziggler talks to NOLA.com about Wrestlemania.

Shawn Michaels vs. the Undertaker at WrestleMania XXV (won by the Undertaker). They could have just had a good match, and we would all still be talking about it. But they went out and had one of the best storytelling matches of all-time. I went into the crowd and just watched it

Daily Star interview

Interview0 Comments

Guerrero talks to The Daily Star about what Eddie would think of the current WWE product.

I don’t think he’d like it too much the way it is now, because it is hard for a young wrestler to get that seasoned experience. You can disguise it all you want with explosions and pyro and entrances, but when it comes down to it in the ring, it’s you and that other person. That’s it.

Rhodes talks to WWE.com about his sons and their tag team success in WWE making him proud.

Dustin is better than he’s ever been. Cody now gets to mirror and travel with Dustin. To get an education from a great in-ring performer who is also a cult character is rare. To have that teacher happen to be your brother is an amazing learning process.

Mysterio talks  to WWE.com about changing his style and recovering from injury.

With this new procedure, it’s been floating around in the air. There’s not that much time left before the end of the year. I’m hoping that either Thanksgiving comes a little early or Christmas comes a little early

Wrestling101.com interview

Marella talks about winning the WWE Intercontinental Title:

Out of the blue one day I got the call up and they said I was going to debut as this Italian guy and my name would be Santino. This was an idea from top brass management, Vince (McMahon) himself actually so of course it was an honour and a privilege and I went with it. All of a sudden they flew me out to Italy, put me in the audience and the rest is history. I was so fixated with not making a mistake that I almost didn’t enjoy the moment as it was happening. Now when I look back I can actually watch it and remember what it was like, it was pretty nerve racking and very surreal.
