Here at Smashwrestling.com we
recently had the chance to interview none other than the
ECW's Angry Amishman Roadkill!.
Angelo: Hi Roadkill,
thank you for taking the time to do this interview with
us. Let's begin with how did you start out in wrestling?
Roadkill: I was trained
at ECW's House of Hardcore.
A:
How long have you been wrestling for and who trained
you?
Roadkill: I have been
wrestling for four years now, my first match was in October
1996. Taz and Perry Saturn were my teachers.
A: You're extrememly
agile for a wrestler of your size, is that something that
comes naturally or was it something you had to work on?
Roadkill: It comes naturally.
A: Let's talk a bit
about your Amish angle, is it true Al Snow is responsible
for it, and if it is, what inspired him?
Roadkill: I guess that
my appearance inspired him.
A: Would you take the gimmick with you if went
to the WWF or WCW? How far do you see the Amishman gimmick
going?
Roadkill: That is for
either the WWF of WCW to decide.
A: I have to ask this.... why "Chickens"?
Roadkill: You will have
to ask Paul E. about that, it was his idea.
A: In your expert Amish opinion which came first,
the chicken or the egg?
Roadkill: CHICKENZ!!!!!FFFFFFF!!!!!!!!
A: Does it frustrate you being limited to a one
word vocabulary, and having to rely on Danny Doring to
cut the promos for the team?
Roadkill: To a certain
extent. I would love to become a more verbal character.
A: Do you keep in character when you meet the fans?
Do they expect you to?
Roadkill: When people
meet me, I am myself. I make jokes about the character,
usually to a positive response.
A: We've recently been shocked by the leg break
of Sid Vicious at WCW sin, a reminder of the risk involved
in wrestling, as a wrestler what goes through your mind
when you see something like that?
Roadkill:
Shock. It was unbelievable. The look on his face said
it all. Such a simple movement, with such a tragic ending.
I wish Sid the best for a speedy recovery.
A: ECW demands more from it's wrestlers than any
other fed, how do you prepare yourself mentally for the
night ahead?
Roadkill: I really don't.
I enjoy performing for people, and any time that I get
the opportunity to, I am ready.
A: Where else have you wrestled apart from ECW?
Roadkill: I have wrestled
for a few independents. Maryland Championship Wrestling
in Maryland, Yankee Pro Wrestling in Massachusetts. I
am interested in working for other independent wrestling
companies in the future.
A: How did you wind up in Terry Funk's Wrestlefest?
Roadkill: Paul E. thought
that I was ready for it. Why was I chosen to go? I have
no idea. But it was a great experience.
A: The FBI cut your beard off recently... is this
the beginning of the end for the Angry Amish Warrior?
Does it signal a change of direction for your character,
much like Kane's sudden lessons in talking?
Roadkill: You guys are
looking further into this than you need to. The beard
is growing back at a rapid rate.
A: Who comes up with the names of your double team-moves?
They're among the most unique I've heard...
Roadkill: Danny and I
come up with them. "Buggy Bang" is the collaboration of
Amish (Buggy-as in horse and), and Dastardly (Bang-as
in Danny brags that he does a lot of). The credit for
"Lancaster Lariat of Lust" goes to ECW commentator Joey
Styles, along with the credit for the names of several
other single's moves.
A: ECW fans are named
the best in the world by Tommy Dreamer, do you agree with
that and how are they different from the WWF or WCW fans?
Roadkill: I don't know
the difference between ECW fans and the fans of the WWF
and WCW because I have never wrestled in front of their
fans. But as far as ECW fans go, I love performing in
front of them. They treat me well.
A: Any closing words/word for your fans?
Roadkill: CHICKENZ!!!!!!!FFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!
A: From all our readers
and everyone at smashwrestling.com a big thank you for
your time Roadkill and we look forward to seeing more
from you on our screens!
Roadkill: CHICKENZ!!!!!!!FFFFFFFFF!!!!!!!
