NiniaPimp Magazine

Jim Bucko, NinjaPimp Reporter at Large
In an industry that only has a couple hundred professionals, it is upsetting to see that dozens of its young performers die every year from a single sickness.

“You can see it in the eyes…It was a void stare of no emotion whatsoever, no highs, no lows, no feeling…just a question, with no answer… ” says professional wrestler Roddy Piper.

Its victims include the entire Von Erich family, ?British Bulldog? Davey Boy Smith, Rick Rude, Curt Hennig, Dick Dudley, Road Warrior Hawk, Pit Bull #2, the Wall, Rocco Rock, and dozens more. What is this sickness? There is no specific name for it, but it most certainly exists. Professional wrestlers abuse their bodies to make it to the top of the industry, that abuse is part of the sickness.

?To wake up, I use uppers. Then I do some steroids to stay in shape. To kill the pain from the last match, I resort to alcohol, painkillers, and pot. A little cocaine before the show takes the edge off, and sleeping pills put me back to sleep at night.? Says one unnamed wrestler.

In the industry today, none of the major companies enforce anti-drug policies. The WWE and NWA-TNA overlook drug use as long as it doesn?t keep the wrestlers from performing. Some wrestlers even insist that the WWE encourages drug use. ?Although they don?t say how, they expect you to have a bodybuilder?s physique when you are on the road 300 days a year. It?s not possible without chemical assistance.? Says another anonymous source.

Although nothing will ever cure it, the first step towards recovery is understanding that there is a sickness. Once major wrestling promotions understand that there is a problem, then they can start to recover.

Lizzy Valentine (b. August 10, 1983) is a professional wrestler, valet, model, and actor. Originally from New York City, Valentine was trained by Homicide and began her career under the ringname Miss Led. She managed Dixie in Jersey All Pro Wrestling and it is here where she also had her first professional match against April Hunter. She also had a career long feud with the WWE’s Mickie James, aka Alexis Laree.

She has recently ventured out into acting and has had small parts in Nip Tuck and Vegas. She is performing in the new MTV wrestling series Wrestling Society X under the ring name Lizzy Valentine as a valet and girlfriend for Matt Sydal. (Source, Wikipedia)

Lizzy, how are you doing today? I am doing fantastic, thanx!

Can you tell us a little about yourself and your accomplishments? Well, I started in the biz when I was 17. I always wanted to be a part of the wrestling industry. I started training at the LIWF Doghouse under the guidance of Homicide (TNA wrestler). I’ve worked for over 40 wrestling promotions across the US, and traveled to the Middle East and Alaska to wrestle for the troops. I am a former Kapow! and UPW women’s champ.

Didn’t you work in TNA? How was that? I only worked there for about a month. It was okay, but the angle I was in didn’t go anywhere. I moved all the way down to Nashville just for the chance to work there so when it didn’t work out, it was a major bummer!!

Where are you wrestling now-a-days? I am currently just working for WSX. It’s the new wrestling promotion on MTV Tuesday nights at 10:30pm. I plan to start working indy shows again in the near future.

Do you have any ambition to wrestle with the WWE? Well, my dream was always to work for WWE, but I am happy with being a part of WSX at the moment.

What do you think of the “divas” in WWE? I think all the girls are great. They work hard to stay in shape and get better each week. I just wish that the management would let them wear more clothing. Don’t hate the playa, hate the game!!

What do you do during the week to stay in shape? I work out a lot. I usually start off the day doing cardio for 40-45 minutes on an empty stomach. Then later on I go to the gym and do yoga and weights. When I am training hard I will do another 45 minutes of cardio at night as well.

What is your diet like? I follow the Eat 4 Your Blood Type diet. I basically eat eggs, chicken or steak, nuts, fruit and veggies on a daily basis. I only drink water, but sometimes I drink organic kombucha teas.

Who is “Matt?” Can you tell us about him? Matt Sydal is my “boyfriend” in WSX. He is one of the top wrestlers in the country.

Who do you like to wrestle? Malia Hosaka and Morgan. I feel like we click the best.

Who would you like to wrestle in the future? Hmmm. Not sure! I always wanted to wrestle Trish, but she’s retired now.

Can you tell us something unusual about yourself? Ummm, I am a really picky eater, and will only eat organic foods that are hormone and antibiotic free.

Do you tan? I don’t tan at all. If anything, I use a spray tan.

What do you do to prepare for a match? I usually like to practice for a little bit with my opponent to feel them out. Then I warm up and stretch.

Is there anything you’d like to say to our 20,000 readers a month? Thanx for all the love and support. I appreciate it so much. Please add me @ www.myspace.com/lizzyvalentine. Oh and don’t forget to put me in your top friends :-)

Thanks for your time. Thanks for having me!!

Exclusive Shark Boy Interview:
by Johnny B. Molestar

From the depths of the ocean and appearing in professional wrestling rings across the land, we are here to interview Shark Boy ?.

So how did you come up with the Shark Boy gimmick?  Are there any plans to tag with John ?Shark? Tenta or the Lobsterman?

The whole thing was originally inspired by a song and promoter Ian Rotten helped put the finishing touch on the name.  My brother and I designed the look of the character.  With regard to the second question, I’ve had plenty of unusual partners in the past, so nothing would surprise me.

How about a Shark Girl?  Are there any plans for the wife or girlfriend to accompany you to the ring?

No, not right now.  There was a “Shark Girl” character briefly, but nothing long-term.  I think it would be fun to do that angle at some point when the time is right.

When I see you on TNA, they sometimes announce your schools of fans.  Who came up with that?  It?s great.

I’m not sure, but I think maybe Scott Hudson came up with that when I was in WCW.  I agree with you, it’s great.

It sounds like Hudson.  You?ve wrestled in a lot of organizations, which one have you liked the most?

I’m having so much fun with TNA right now, so I would have to say them.  I also really enjoy performing in front of friends and family at Buckeye Pro Wrestling events in Ohio.

How would you compare XPW and ECW?

I never worked for ECW, but the fans in XPW were great to me.  They got with my character right away in both Philadelphia and Los Angleles.  I’m not really an “extreme” wrestler, but the character is so unique that the fans were really able to connect with it.

In my last few wrestling interviews, nobody commented on Rob Black because they were all suing him.  How was it to work with him?

He was always very professional to me and I have nothing bad to say about him personally.

And how would you compare Rob Black and Paul Heyman?

Both had a vision and ideas about taking the wrestling product to “the next level”.  I think the biggest difference is that Heyman has a much stronger concept of “wrestling” while Black’s specialty seemed to be shocking people.

Speaking of shocking, what do you think of hardcore wrestling?

I’m not a huge fan of it personally, but I understand its place in the industry.

Were you a backyard wrestler as a youngster?

Yeah, I guess you could say that.  We never did anything “extreme” or “hardcore”.  We just had fun.

Have you ever played the game titled Backyard Wrestling?  I am sure many fans would like to see your character on there.

I haven’t had the chance to yet, but I know I will at some point.  It will be great to finally see my character on a video game someday.

You?ve worked with WCW and XPW? all of those companies were ill-fated.  Do you see that sort of future for TNA?

I think big things are still to come for TNA.

You don?t think you jinxed those other companies, do you?

Lol, I hope not.

I?ve seen some photos with you and Shane Helms.  Are you two friends?  I would love to see a big push for a ?Super Friends? group in the WWE.

Yes, we are good friends, and I too would love to see he and Rosey get a great big push.

Bruce Santee is known by many as the best wrestler in the state of Florida.  He’s a no-brainer future TNA or WWE star.  Personally, Bruce is one of my favorite indy workers.  He possesses the athletic ability and the personality that makes him stand head and shoulders above his peers.  Let’s see what he has to say in this interview.

Thanks for doing this interview with www.MarcusPitt.com. How are you doing today?

Fan- freakin – tastick there SnowMan.

Can you tell us a little about yourself? What is your name? Where do you wrestle? What basic height and weight or other stats would you like to share?

Well if you don’t know by now, I am “The Marquee” Bruce Santee. I am 6’4”, and currently weighing in at 255 lbs..

How can a promoter book you, and in what areas do you primarily wrestle?

I primarily try to stay local, Central Florida area. I work a very mentally draining job during the week, so I like to enjoy my weekends, and not have to travel. I may venture back out this upcoming year, if the price is right. I can be contacted for bookings via Facebook , or bruce.santee@yahoo.com

How did you break into wrestling? Who trained you, and what was your first year like?  Maybe tell us a bit about Dudley Dudley.

I originally began training with the Bushwhackers back in 1999. I learned the basics from them, however, stopped training to become an officer of the law. I eventually got over that retarded a$$ cop kick, and resumed training in 2000. At that time I trained with LeRoy Howard (Navy Seal/ Rastaman) and Jeff Bradley (Original Dudley Dudley) , among others. Training was brutal… very old school. Drills, Hindu Squats, Pushups, more drills… I was pushed beyond my limits..

We would learn certain “moves”, what situations to apply them in, and how to tell a story with the said move. Jeff and Leroy were great at that.

LeRoy also took the time to show me and several others many “legit” submissions, striking, etc. When people hear you are a “wrestler”, they always want to “try you”. LeRoy always said if someone tries you, and then subsequently works you over, it will be embarrassing not only to yourself, but to the business as well. Never go out and look for trouble, but if the trouble finds you, you need to be able to take care of business. Having 7 years of Amateur wrestling experience, the “shooting” was my favorite part of training.

Most importantly, they taught us to RESPECT and PROTECT the business. When you are green, you should be the first one to arrive to the venue, and the last one to leave. You should help with set-up and tear down, even if you are not on the show. If you are in the locker room, and all the seats are taken, and a VET shows up, you should be the first one to give up your chair for them. They paved the way for you! That is how you get booked… You must earn your way in.

Unfortunately a lot of the young kids coming up never learned that. There isn’t much respect in this area anymore.

Who do you enjoy wrestling the most?

Guys that always bring the best out of me, in no particular order: Vordell Walker, Erick Stevens, Jon Davis, Kory Chavis, Francisco Ciatso, Eddie Taurus, Sedrick Strong, Sam Shaw, and I am sure there are a few more. All the aforementioned guys can take it and dish it right back. I would get in the ring with any of them on any given day.

What are the biggest names that you have wrestled?

It depends on what you consider a “name”? I guess if you want to go “Mainstream”, then Jerry Lawler, CM Punk, MVP, 75 percent of the current TNA Locker room, and Frankie Capone.

So can you tell us about any injuries you have had that are wrestling related?

Torn Rotator Cuff in both shoulders, meniscus tears in both knees, several concussions, bruised ribs, sprained MCL, herniated disks, tendonitis in every joint, and a broken pinky toe.

What wrestlers did you enjoy watching as a kid? Did you use them as role models in your career?

I know most guys in this business had a wrestler they looked up to as a kid, I honestly didn’t really. I guess I used to like Hercules Hernandez because he was a friend of my uncle’s.. Other than that, I just watched for the entertainment. Once I became older, I started becoming a fan of guys.

I would have to say one of my all time favorites is Booker T. He always looks like he is having fun in the ring, playing heel or face. That is what I try to radiate to the crowd. I am in the ring, sweating, in my underwear, beating up another sweaty man, in his underwear, in a totally HeteroSexual way, and having a good time doing it.

I like to compare my in-ring style to JBL, with a bit more athleticism. I like to brutalize people… Beat them down! When you see a Bruce Santee match, you KNOW you are watching a fight!

My current favorite (and I am probably the only male over the age of 12 to say this) is Cena. People can $hit on his “in ring” ability all they want, but the way he connects with the crowd is unreal. Love him or hate him, people want to watch him. I believe he is the ONLY ONE left that brings that “true emotion” back to the sport, which has been missing for way too long. He knows how to draw money, and I think, at this point, the WWE would be in a LOT OF TROUBLE without him.

Do you have any websites or upcoming events you would like to promote?

Check me out on Facebook at www.facebook.com/brucesantee.

I can be found locally (Tampa Bay Area) wrestling several times a month for FU Wrestling at Gasoline Alley Tuesday nights in Largo, Florida. In the Central Florida Area, Vintage Wrestling’s show of the year, WrestleBrawl II, January 15, 2011 at the Sanford Salvation Army in Sanford Florida. . I may be popping up again in South Florida and several other places here in the next few months…

We also run a website called www.Wrestling911.com. Have you been there? If so, what do you think about it?

Yes, I am sure I speak for most of the other workers in saying we appreciate what you do with the website in promoting Florida Wrestling.

Is there anything else you would like to talk about?

I would like to talk about all the naughty things I wanna do to that bitch KE$HA…….

Well, who wouldn’t.  Thank you for your time.

AfroSquad Exclusive Interview:
CZW’s Chrissy Rivera, Manager of Champions

Chrissy, can you give us a basic bio on yourself?
Well my name is Christina but most people know me as Chrissy. I’m 25 years old.  I am originally from Staten Island New York, but I currently living in South Jersey. I am half Puerto Rican and half Italian, so I possess master skill in both tire slashing and cement shoe making! I have a full time job during the day, college student by night, and pro wrestler/manager on the weekends.

Who trained you as a wrestler?
I was originally trained by Neeno Capone then was taken under the wing of Jon Dahmer.

What have been your biggest moments in wrestling?
Some of my biggest moments would have to be joining BLK OUT in 2006. Ruckus, Sabian, Robbie, Joker and Eddie have all taught me so much about wrestling and I owe a lot to them. Another moment would be managing the Genius Lanny Poffo who is my ALL TIME FAVORITE. It was great working with him. Working in Canada was also a great moment in my career. The fans are absolutely wonderful and I hope to go back soon!

Have you taken any nasty bumps?
Being in the business and working for CZW!  It is basically a given that you will take some nasty bumps. I will do whatever it takes for my boys to win, even if it means having to go through a table or taking a kendo stick to the behind every now and then.  (I’d like to thank Noel Harlow for the kendo stick marks across my behind!)

You seem to have a lot of marijuana references on your page. What do you think about Mary Jane?
HAHA! Well asking about my thoughts on Mary Jane is like asking a girl her weight! You just don’t do that! If you wanna know more, Google BLK OUT and that should speak for itself.

For the folks who don’t know, what is Blackout?
BLK OUT is the most successful & talented stable in indy wrestling today. The group consists of Ruckus, Sabian, Joker, Robbie, Eddie Kingston & myself. BLK OUT is very well known and each member bring something special to the group.

Do you date any wrestlers?
I have dated wrestlers in the past. I don’t have a preference, or that I date ONLY wrestlers. I try to date people who make me happy and are not PSYCHO!  Why, is the Mulletmaster single?

Do you have any desire to work for the WWE?
No. Now don’t get me wrong, if the WWE came knocking on my door, offering a contract, I would accept. It would be a great opportunity.  However, I am not trying to work for the WWE. I do have tons of respect for the company and roster.  They all work very hard day in and day out.

The WWE management seems to like female wrestlers with breast implants. What do you think about breast implants?
I have nothing negative to say about implants. If it makes you happy, why not? I have no desire to get them, but some people feel they need to get them to feel better about themselves. I say if it makes you happy then do it.

Where can fans see you?
Come check out Combat Zone Wrestling at the old ECW arena. They usually run on the second Saturday of every month. Also come check out Maryland Championship Wrestling, ACW in Denver, pa and DCW in Delaware. You can check out my myspace page (www. myspace. com/chrissy_rivera) for my wrestling schedule and calender for dates and times.

What is your current theme song?
It varies, usually whatever BLK OUT comes out to. When I wrestle alone I usually come out to “Boom Boom Boom” by the Vengaboys.

Can you tell us something cool about yourself?
Hmmm. I don’t know anything “cool” but i used to play a lot of sports. Soccer, field hockey and cheerleading. I also used to be on the drill team in school.

What would be your dream match?
I would have loved to wrestle Sherri Martel. I have so much respect for that woman, she was TOUGH and didn’t take crap from anyone!

Where do you see yourself in five years?
Hopefully happy and healthy. I want to have a good job, eventually move from my apartment into a house. Who knows where five years and wrestling will take me? I may still be wrestling or I may not.  I just hope to be successful.

Is there anything else you’d like to talk about?
Check out www. czwrestling. com, www. marylandwrestling. com and Youtube for BLK OUT clips and matches!!!

Brad “Lodi” Cain Interview
NinjaPimp’s Exclusive Interview!

Lodi, WCW’s West Hollywood Blonde!

Did you see the WWE recently removed Muhammad Hassan for political reasons. Same happened to Chuck and Billy. Do you have any thoughts on those characters? Chuck and Billy? What a blatant rip-off of the WHB. They were terrible. I don’t think they were removed for political reasons, but maybe from a lack of talent? They just could not get that gimmick over. Billy Gunn has had his run with other characters that I enjoyed, but with Chuck, let’s just say DUD. Hassan’s storyline was good, but the casual fan doesn’t watch enough to follow or understand that he wasn’t trying to be a terrorist, but was displaying discrimination against Arab-Americans. I didn’t like them adding the terrorist overtones at the end, I thought it was unnecessary and went against the original direction of the angle.

I thought the Flock stole the show in WCW. What did you think of the crew? Do you have any comments on Raven, Reese, Kidman, or any of the others? I owe Raven so much. He helped me in ways I could never describe in a written interview. He has a great mind for the business and is talented. The Flock angle was good/ great. It was ended way too soon. Take all of the Flock members and tell me a time any of them were more over than when the Flock was together in 97-98.

So what was your favorite sign, and who came up with the sign idea? I liked “If it is raining, bring your La Parka.” Signs, signs, everywhere a sign. Raven stole the idea from Lou E., formerly sign guy Dudley. Brilliant idea Raven. My favorite sign? Too many to narrow it down to one.

Did you come up with all your own signs? No, some of the boys would give me ideas, though probably 90% of the ideas were mine.

You’ve wrestled some huge names. Who are some of the biggest? My first Nitro match was against Chris Benoit. I wrestled Bill Goldberg, Eddie Guerrero, Booker T, Kevin Nash, DDP… at one time or another almost all of the names from WCW.

I remember you facing Goldberg. Is he as stiff in the ring as everyone says? One time I saw him spear Chavo Guerrero Jr. I thought Chavo might have died. I had no problems with Bill, we were friends from the Power Plant at WCW. he was a class act.

More recently you had some hard times. Your apartment burned, you spent time in a wheel chair… can you tell us a little about that? Hey, why bring up old stuff? Yes, in 2002 I broke my neck for the second time and was in a collar for 5 long months. My apartment totally burned last year and I lost everything I owned. God has blessed me with some wonderfully high peaks in my life, I cannot complain when he throws in a valley or two. On to bigger and better things, I have my first book coming out in 8-10 weeks. It is a fictional novel about a contest bodybuilder, and it will be available at both my web sites, my store, and Amazon.com, just to name a few places!

Can you tell people about your gym and supplement store? www.yourflexappeal.com is the web address. (www.lodirulz.com is the wrestling site) I owned a pt studio before wrestling and it is my other true passion in life. I am glad to be back in the fitness industry! I train about 20 clients a week now…

So do you think that it is ironic that you own a nutrition store that is located on “Carmel Road?” No comment…

At least it isn’t located on the Hershey Highway. Uh, no comment.

Do you have any closing comments? To all the fans out there, please know I appreciate everything you guys have given me. The boos and the cheers, I will always appreciate. Without you there would be no LODI!

Vance Archer / Lance Hoyt interview

Kid Kash recently made the jump to WWE. What do you think of him? I think Kash is awesome, and I hope only the best for him. He helped me out a lot and it would be great to work with him again.

Why did you stop using the name Dallas? Dusty Rhodes is the one that made the decision for me to change my name.

What do you think of TNA’s current product? Is the company going in the right direction? I think TNA has all the chance in the World to be something great.

Where do you see yourself in five years? Who knows I could be World champ or Mr. Hoyt English teacher.

What inspired you to become a wrestler. I love the athleticism and theatrics of the business.

By the way, how tall are you? Did you play college basketball? I’m about 6ft 8in tall. Only in high school. I played mostly football.

You’ve really gotten in good shape over the past few years. What does your average day’s diet look like? I eat about six times a day and try and keep it as clean as possible. But I have a horrible sweet tooth and have to fight with myself not to eat candy and stuff of that nature.

What supplements do you use, and what are your primary sources of protein? I use a lot of Meso Tech products and Met Trx supplements. Food and Bars are my main sources.

What’s your favorite lift in the gym? Is there an exercise that you swear by? I love working back. The bent over row and hanging Pull ups. Can’t beat it.

What are your thoughts on steroids? Some people feel it’s the only way to get ahead in athletics. Everyone has to make their own choice and suffer the consequences if they are caught.

Is there anything you would like to advertise, talk about, or tell your fans? Yea everyone check out Hoythoythoyt.com when they get a chance. Let The world know Hoyt is the real Deal. Preorder your very own Lance Hoyt action figure at ToyWiz.com.

Who are your role models? In Wrestling Sting, In Life Jesus Christ.

Thanks for your time. Thank you.

Wrestling Star – Mr. Fantasy

Mr. Fantasy and Sexy Samantha

Mr. Fantasy, how are you doing today?
I’m doing well. Thanks for asking.

Let’s start with your early career. Who trained you?
I was trained by the Armstrongs. Mainly Steve but Scott and Bob had a hand in it also.

What moves did you learn first?
Just he basic stuff. How to lock up, an arm bar, a hammer lock, a head lock. Like I said just the basic stuff.

What advice have you taken from other wrestlers?
When I 1st started I was given the best advice a young wrestler could be given. I was told to just keep my mouth shut and always listen to what you are told.

What are the biggest names you have wrestled?
I have been lucky enough to be in the ring with some big names. Just to name a few. All the Armstrongs (Bob, Scott, Steve, Brad and Brian-Road Dog), Buff Bagwell, Tommy Rich, I tagged with Dr. Tom Prichard. A few more but that is enough for now.

Who do you enjoy wrestling in the ring?
Heck yeah beats wrestling on the floor. Just kidding. Yeah I enjoy getting in there and mixing it up.

A lot of our fans saw your match with Dan Delicious and Uncle Vinnie. What do you think of that match? We thought your interactions with Dan were quite entertaining.
Thanks, I appreciate that. Dan and I have worked each other a lot and usually have good matches. It is so easy to work with him. He does his thing and you just react. As far as the match goes. I thought it was ok. I mean there is always something that could have been done better but over all it was ok.

Who is Sexy Samantha?
She is my wife. I meet her right after I stared training. For the 1st year I wrestled she just rode with me. I was a good guy and really didn’t need a valet. Ever since then I have been a bad guy and she has been with me.

If you had a televised WWE match, what would you want J.R. to say about you?
I would hope he would say I was entertaining. That I gave my all every time I was out there. Heck, to have JR say anything about you would be an honor.

Do you have any signature moves? If so, can you explain them?
I usually drop an elbow off the top rope to finish my matches. Nothing to special. I do have one move I guess. I place my opponent in a razor edge and then drop them into a diamond cutter.

Are there any wrestlers that you compare yourself to?
Not really. Now I do look up to a couple of wrestlers. Bob Armstrong and Ric Flair. They have had some influance on my career.

As a wrestler, what do you do best?
I would say entertain. When I am out in front of the crowd I do my best to keep them into the match. Wheather I have to tell someone to shut up or tell someone I am going to whip their ass next. Just try to entertain.

What do you think you could improve on to take your game up one step?
There are a couple of things I could improve on. I mean everyone can improve on something. I would say my body and my actual wrestling ability. I never said I was a good technical wrestler.

Is there anything else you would like to talk about today?
I would just like to say thank you to the Armstrongs. They took me in like I was family and that means a lot to me. I would also like to say I am a very blessed man to be able to do this for the last 7 years and say I have given my all every time I was out there.

What do you think of Ultimate Wrestling?
I think it was ok for the 1st show. There are some things I would have done differently but it’s not my show so I just show up do my thing get paid and leave.

What do you think of other wrestling companies in the South?
There are some good ones and some not so good ones. Over all though the good ones out way the bad. I guess here are to many in the Gulf Coast area. Sometimes its seems like some guy run across some many so he goes out and buys a ring and tries to put on a show. Most of the time they have no idea what they are doing and that looks bad on the other organizations that are out there trying to do it the right way.

Thanks for your time.
No problem. Thanks for having me. Take care. Until next time just remember.

I’m not the whole show,
I’m not the big show, but
I am the best damn part of the show.

An Interview with Miss DeVille
by the Red Ninja of Afro-Squad.com

Alright Miss DeVille, how are you doing today? Pretty better. Getting over a nasty cold!

I am sorry to hear that you were sick.  When you are not sick, where can people see you perform?  Anywhere over the North-east! I wrestle pretty much in all New England, and New York.

I have heard that you sometimes break dance in the ring.  What fly dance moves to you perform for the crowd?   I am a fan of the pop & lock and just doing the robot. The worm is also a favorite.

What are some of your favorite in-ring moves? I have two moves that I do regularly.  One is a Swanton from the top rope which is my finisher. Then I have a submission which is a form of an STF, but I do a bridge over the person, locking their legs and put them in a chinlock.

Haven’t you used a gimmick where you are a lady pimp?  Can you tell us about that?  While doing my rap/ghetto gimmick I’d do some shows that would want me to soften up my gimmick a bit. Some feds it was too gimmicky for, so I’d do the lady pimp gimmick which is basically boas, shades, i can still break dance and come out to rap and I was all set.

Have you ever considered wearing an afro wig to the ring?  Don’t you think it would fall off?

I’ve never had any problems with mine.  Anyway, what do you do outside of wrestling?  I work two jobs! Waitress on nights, and work at Old Navy during the days. I love to work out and hang out with friends other than that.

A lot of divas now-a-days are models and not wrestlers.  What do you think that is doing to the industry?  I personally think it is kind of hurting the industry for the women specifically that want to actually get out there and wrestle. I don’t even see that many girls on TV that can actually take a hip-toss or an arm drag, which is sad because there are so many talented girls on the INDY scene that deserve a chance.

It also seems that very few women can make it to the WWE without breast implants.  Do you think that is healthy for the industry?  I don’t feel every girl should feel obligated to get breast implants when getting a WWE contract. If they want to get breast implants, that is a different story. I know they love there women beautiful and busty though, it does make ratings.

What are your thoughts on steroid abuse in the industry?  Do you think a tough drug policy in the major companies would save lives? This basically ties into the breast implant question. Many guys have to be big and muscular, and a lot of them depend on steroids to get them there. It’s unfortunate though, because it does ruin health in the long run.

Don’t you have a website?  Will you tell us about it? Yeah, my website www.missdeville.cjb.net has been up for a few years. Good friend and tag team partner of mine Kayla Sparks runs it. She is amazing with website/graphics.

Do you have anything to ask us? How did you think of the name of your site Ninja pimp? It’s frickin’ awesome!

Well, my editor Mervin came up with it. He pointed out that Ninja and Pimps are totally sweet.  I agreed and Afro-Squad was born.  Good question.  Thanks for your time.
