First Questions

What got you into Pro Wrestling in the first place?

Just was channel flicking some Saturday morning when I was young and came across SmackDown on Sky1 and got hooked on it. Just the presentation alone was enough to hook me.

What keeps you interested in it?

I really don't know, it's just gotten into a routine form me now that I'd check what happened on Raw/SD and any PPV I don't get to see. It's like something that when you get hooked to it, it'll stay with you.

How did you come across the PW forum on Boards?

I saw a link to a thread on boards (think it was the draft) from some other website. Liked what I saw, signed up and I've been here pretty much since

What keeps you coming back to the forum?

I'm doing a course in college so I don't get to see as much wrestling as I'd like to so the forum generally keeps me informed of what's going on. That and the Draft and the PW Diva's thread are on here as well

What other big interest do you have outside of Pro Wrestling?

I'm into a lot of American Sports (NHL, NBA, NFL) but I'm really into basketball. I'm a gamer as well (level 10 on trophies on PlayStation)

What wrestler/story/moment do you feel had the greatest impact on you
as a fan?

Tough one but I'd say Eddie Guerrero's death. I didn't know he had died so when I went to watch Raw on Thursday night, I was shocked. Still get a bit emotional watching that show back now, especially the tribute with the Johnny Cash song:(

Where did your username come from?

I have no idea where it came from tbh. I just put together some random words and it's just stuck.

D2D

and some more

Whos your fav wrestler?

It's a toss up between Chris Jericho and CM Punk. Y2J was my favourite growing up but I love watching Punk's matches. Both are awesome at delivering promos as well.

What made you a fan of Pro Wrestling?

Just the general presentation of it and the fact I got into it during the Attitude era. The theme music that'd be stuck in your head for days, the iconic stage and pyro, oh and Rock and Stone Cold every week.

WCW or WWF?

WWF. I remember the Friday night wars (WCW on TNT and Raw on Sky Sports) but I'd always watch WWF given the choice.


If vince Mc called you to be a superstar what would your gimmick be and who would you feud against first?

Tough one, I'd probably go along the CM Punk, not give a sh*t what anyone thinks of me guy. I'd definitely suit the heel role better. First feud? I'd probably go against Rey Mysterio

What is your favourite finisher ?

SWEET........CHIN.......MUSIC!!!

What WWE star do you think doesn't deserve the push they're getting and who do you think has a poor gimmick?

Poor gimmick: Wade "Bad News" Barrett - He should be in the main event picture by now tbh.

Doesn't deserve the push: I'd probably say Bray Wyatt. The character is awesome, in ring not so

Who that has left WWE would you like to see back ?

Honestly, I'd go with M.V.P. He had an awesome gimmick but was left to flourish in the mid-card. I seriously think that given a push, he'd be a star

Who from another promotion that you're aware of would you like to see in WWE?

There's dozens but I'd really like to see Prince Devitt in WWE

Who's your favourite Simpson?

Ralph, without a doubt

Gimmick you hated at first but it really grew on you?

Matt Hardy Version 1.0. I'm an MF'er!

Best repackaging of a WWE Superstar?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRU5opfQ4vc

Best gig you ever went to?

A Live and Gigging night from college. Pretty good music for the whole night and a great atmosphere.

Favourite football team?

Can't choose between Liverpool and Cork City

Favourite ever sitcom/comedy?

Friends

You can invite one wrestling personality for dinner, who do you choose and why?

Jim Ross, he'd have a ton of stories to tell

Top 3 entrance themes?

Never drank but I'm prone to singing a bit of Lionel Richie on a night out. All Night Long or Dancing on the Ceiling being the personal favorites

Any superstar from WWE or TNA currently you would repackage and push and why?

Wade Barrett. He has the look, the skill set and the mic work and should be kicking ass in the main event picture.

Nani, just have a hatred towards him

If you could live anywhere, where would you live?

Unlimited money - Dubai; Everything else - New York.

any opinions on the draft rosters? BWA in particular

A ton of varied rosters this year and there's a ton I'm keeping an eye on. On BWA, it's up there with your strongest rosters that you've done. Nice variety in it and a ton of potential

Favourite Diva atm / of all time?

I'd probably have to say Melina

favourite non PW board on boards?

I'm on the Basketball forum a lot, I'd also check out the Soccer forum as well
