| There are many rumors about Real Action Wrestling going around and why they stopped running so early this year. Could you let the fans know what happened this past summer? -Well, I feel like a skipping cd here when I say the company ran in to money problems. Isn't that what happens to all wrestling promotions? It's pretty simple if there is no money, there's no wrestling. All the promotions that run all the time or they run at lease a few shows every once in a while, they usually don't pay their wrestlers but when you have a company like RAW that had Canada's top talents, you need money! It just won't work without it Why didn't RAW succeed? -Needless to say it wasn't talent. I mean look at the guy's on the roster, Bobby Rude, Eddie Watts, Chi Chi Cruz to mention a few, these are all top talented guys and they made what RAW was. The demise of RAW was lack of money. Do you think Brian and Warren have what it takes to get the boys what they need? -The boys need money! That's what it takes. Do you think RAW will be back in 2003? -No chance, unless Warren or Brian wins a lottery! If Real Action Wrestling did come back would you work for them again? -I would if I was paid what is owed to me and money would have to be upfront RAW brought in a few young faces this past summer, Sweet Daddy and Aaron Idol, they were said to have some major heat in the RAW locker room. Why do you think that was there? -Well, I think it was just a clash of personalities not so much Aaron but Sweet Daddy had a really hard time getting along with the boys, myself I didn't have a problem with them, Duke and I actually got along with them but I guess it's just personality differences? There is a new promotion that started in the Maritimes called Ultimate Championship Wrestling, do you think we could see the Wildman in a UCW ring sometime? -Yes I've been in talks with them and if everything goes well I will be possibly a part of the roster but it's still too soon to tell. After RAW stopped running shows you went to work for ACW. What made you do that? and did you like working for them? -I was scheduled to stay in the Maritimes till September and when RAW shut down I was obviously pressed for money so I thought it would only make sense for me to work for these guy's till September. But believe it or not I ran into a little money problem there too. "No Cash" Bobby Bass screwed me out of about $360.00 (It's that skipping cd again) But as far as the boys go? There was a great bunch of guy's there. All in all I got to meet and work with them so at lease something good come out of it. Why do you think that ACW stopped running shows such a short time after RAW stopped? -Money, money, money... What was your favourite road trip story from this past summer? -Ah man, there was alot... One day going to Yarmouth was a blast cuz Cathy and I were in the back seat while Bobby Rude and Kowboy were in the front. Cathy and I were in the back video taping them singing and dancing to these old time country songs that were playing on the radio. It was fuckin great! (had to be there) at this time Duke was in the very back passed out cuz he was hung over! The night in Digby when Cathy and Rachel were doing the jig outside the hotel room was a good one too. There are just too many to list... Who do you think was the best all-around wrestler in the Maritimes this past summer? -No contest: Bobby Rude What will you be up too this winter out west? -Working and wrestling. Living a more normal life than the road life. Any plans on getting your self into a developmental camp? -Right now, no, but you never know maybe something will come up? If you could work anybody past or present, who would you pick? -Chris Benoit or Kurt Angle |

| How do you think your ladder cage match with Chi Chi Cruz went? -I liked it, there wasn't too many crazy stunts but at the time we just wanted to get out of there alive. From all the talent in the Maritimes who do you feel has what it takes, to take that next step? -Is Bobby Rude considered a Maritimer? hehehe... "Kowboy" Mike Hughes What's better Eastlink TV or New Scott Video? -New Scott Video's Kick ass... Where can we see Gary Williams in action? -One chance left this year In Edmonton, Alberta on Dec. 20th. Then the next show that I am booked on is Jan. 18th in Calgary with Hybrid Wrestling Coalition. Any Closing message for your fans? -Yeah, I'm even fatter now. Name Association Vance Nevada: Great on the stick! Cinder: lots of dedication, super nice guy.
