| What would you do if you met OJ Simpson in a dark alley? | Shake his hand. It's not that often you met a football legend.
Maybe buy him a drink at the Slim's Chance, the FIRM's tavern. |
| Who/what has been your biggest influence? | It would have to be a tie between Vic and Cynthia. Cynthia got me through all the times, good and bad. And Vic has helped me so much with my wrestling career. I would take a bullet for either of them! |
| What is the worst thing that happened to you in your youth? | I was a troubled youngster...in and out of trouble. Had many jail time experiences. This all came from my parents. I was an abused child. I had rich foster parents that didn't really care too much about me. I lived my life with everything...and just so I would stay, my family would buy me everything. So, as a child I felt that no one loved me. At the age of 15, I got a call from my mom. She told me they had changed, and recieved counceling. They just wanted to see me again, since it had been 11 years. On the way to my house, they were killed in a car accident. That really hurts me. Even though I was abused, I still loved my parents! |
| What is the worst pain you ever felt in your life? (physical/emotional) | Probally when my biological parents died...I wished that I could take their places, and die and let them live. It took me more than a year to fully get over it. |
| If you could meet one person, at any point in history, who would it be? What would you say to them? | I would love to have met William Wallace, the scottish rebel.
That man is what the word courage is all about, and I would love to give him my praise! |
| Boxers or briefs? | none at all... |

later. If it was a long term wish...I wish I could forget my past! |
| Where do you see yourself in 10/20/50 years? | 10- AICW Champion...married to Cyn with a couple of kids!

| If you went to McDonalds and found a rat in your burger, what would you do? | Climb over the counter, go to the man that stuck it in my burger, and shove it down his throat. |
| What would you do if someone broke into your home? | Beat the hell out of them, call the cops, and tell them it was
self-defense! |
| If you weren't wrestling in the AICW, what would you be doing? | If not for Cyn, I'd still be in jail. Other than that, I'd
probally be on the streets, making money whatever way I can, since my history won't let me do anything else! |
| Worst job you ever had? | First stint as a pro wrestler...I know I am not supposed to use
this word, but everyone knows it. I was a jobber |
