Here at Smashwrestling.com we
recently had the chance to interview the world famous
Jasmin St Claire about her new career in Wrestling.
Angelo: Hi Jasmin, thank
you for taking the time to do this interview with us.
It's a big jump from your previous career to the wrestling
business, what inspired you to make the change?
Jasmin St Claire: Yes
it is! But, for the first time in my life I love the people
that I work with, we all respect one another and I love
my job. I have always been a wrestling fan since the age
of 7. Besides, I got sick of dealing with ignorant, uneducated
irresponsible fools in my previous career and decided
it was time to change. So, I quit whilst being at the
top.
A: Were you a wrestling
fan to begin with or is it a newfound interest?
Jasmin:
I was watching wrestling long before my 2nd love - IronMaiden!
A: How did you meet
up and become involved with Blue Boy?
Jasmin: I met him at
some indy shows that we worked on together and finally
started getting to know him in March of 2000. Our friend
Dave introduced us.
A: Where do you see your career going? Do you want
to get involved more in the ring?
Jasmin: Sue Sexton first
trained me and I am now training with Mando Guerrero,
I intend to use those skills in the ring. I intend on
being a very popular female in wrestling.
A: Whilst on Jerry (the King) Lawlers site I spotted
a photograph taken at Jerry's own federation Memphis Championship
Wrestling with you in the ring with Kat, how did this
come about and are you a regular at MCW?
Jasmin: I started working
there back in April until June and then went on to ECW(
Extreme Championship Wrestling). I went down to Tennessee
to visit the Blue Boy since he invited me there and then
I was asked to work there. I loved it there (MCW) as a
start for my career. I enjoyed training with Steve "William"
Regal and working for Jerry Lawler.
*Reader note MCW is a WWF development
ground many wrestlers such as K-Kwik, William Regal, Joe
Abs, Kat have wrestled here.
A: What was it like working along side the Kat?
Jasmin: I loved working
with her. She was a pleasure to work with and very professional.
A: Have you been taking wrestling lessons and if
so who has been training you?
Jasmin: Sue Sexton trained
me & now Mando Guerrero is training me. Sue gave me plenty
of encouragement & great technical moves. Mando is taking
me to the next level & has given me plenty of courage.
He is teaching me how to do the moonsault.
A: Given the opportunity who would you most like
to work an angle with out of all three main federations?
Jasmin: I think that
it is best to stay at one federation at a time. Eventually,
I would like to work for each federation at one point
in my career.
A: Here at SmashWrestling we occasionally like
to have a little word play, I'll mention some names and
you tell us the first thing that comes into your mind
for each, there is no specific reason for the list it
just lets fans know some of your thoughts!
Jasmin's answers are in green
text:
Paul Heyman - I thank him for giving me a chance & helping
me out. he is very talented & creative.
Ivory - talented and pretty.
New Jack - Extreme!!!!!!!!!!
Steve Corino - Talented and a wonderful person.
Amy Dumas - Great!
Blue Boy - My sweetie!
Hulk Hogan - I loved watching him back when he with the
WWF.
Tommy Dreamer - A phenomenal worker.
A: Did / Have any of
the Big 2 contacted you yet about working for them?
Jasmin: Yes, one of them
did.

A: What do you think the future holds for you, The
Blue Boy & ECW?
Jasmin: I think my future
in pro wrestling will be very bright and the same with
ECW. Blue Boy lost 150lbs and deserves another break!
He did what he was told to do by the WWF and they never
should have let him go.
A: What's it like working with federations like
ECW?
Jasmin: I love it. Everyone
there is so helpful & they have a great operation.
A: Do you get on with the ECW locker room?
Jasmin: Of course I do.
These are all talented people with brains and a sense
of reality. They are like a 2nd family to me, not a bunch
of moronic unarticulated psychos.
A: Many of our female readers often ask how they
can start off in the wrestling industry, do you have any
words of advice you could offer them?
Jasmin: I am better at
giving advice on financial planning , traveling, hair
salons, relationships & foreign languages - not getting
started in wrestling - sorry!
A: Is there any other feds that fans should keep
an eye out for you appearing at?
Jasmin: Just ECW now.
A: To end on, is there anything else you would
like to say to your newly found fans?
Jasmin:I love all of
you! For all of my fans in the UK - I love the UK, it
was my home for 2 years! Check out my site at www.jasminsasylum.com
A: From all our readers and everyone at smashwrestling.com
a big thank you for your time Jasmin and we wish you all
the best with your newfound career!
Jasmin: Thanks everyone!
