1). How long have you watched wrestling? (If it's "off and on," include only the total of "on" years)
Since the mid-late 80's

2). What is your first memory of professional wrestling?
WWF Superstars coming on after the Saturday morning cartoons

3). Who was your first favorite wrestler?
Bret Hart

4). Who is your favorite wrestler now?
Bret Hart

5). If your favorite wrestler is not currently working, who's your favorite active wrestler today?
Chris Jericho if he counts. If not, then either member of Beer Money or Sting or Ric Flair.

6). What is your favorite match?
Probably Bret Hart vs. Chris Benoit for the WCW Title at Mayhem 99

7). What is your favorite moment in wrestling history?
Tough to remember since there have been so many moments I've loved, the most recent moment that stands out is Bret Hart returning to Raw.

8). Have you ever stopped watching? If so, what made you stop? What made you start back up?
Sometime between Wrestlemania XII and XIII for a few months.

9). On a scale of 1 to 10, how much of a mark are you? (10 = Little Jimmy, 1 = Vince McMahon)
4 or 5.

10). Describe some of your markish tendencies from when you were younger, and/or some that still manifest from time to time.
I seldom got that excited one way or the other about it, but I remember that something about Bret Hart losing the title to Sid on Raw made me extremely angry at the time.

11). Did you start off as a mark? If so, how long didn't you know about the nature of the business? If you started watching with the knowledge that it's fixed, what drew you to it?
No, it was always just another tv show to me when I was little. I never understood why people got so upset or smug when they found out you watched and told you it was fake. Although their satisfaction quickly went away when I told them of course it was it was just a tv show.

12). How many live events have you attended? Which ones? What are some of the differences you experience when watching on television, as opposed to in the arena?
1. TNA house show a couple months ago. I've never cared to be crammed into an arena with a whole bunch of people in seats where you probably can't see all of the action for such an outrageous price. I just prefer to watch it on tv from a comfortable seat.

13). Who is your least favorite wrestler, and why? (Any time period)
Salvatore Sincere or Batista

14). What was, in your opinion, the stupidest/worst moment in wrestling?
Rosie vs Trump

15). Who is the WORST wrestler? (If other than your least favorite)
Batista

16). Who is the BEST wrestler? (If other than your favorite)
Bret Hart

17). Choose 5 adjectives to describe the qualities of a successful wrestler.
Charisma
Listening
Attention to detail
Good look
Canadian

18). What key factors make the difference between being bored with a match and blown away by it?
Who is involved, intensity of the match, match quality

19). If you had the power to start your own wrestling company, and the power to hire any five wrestlers to spearhead your roster, who would they be? (Feel free to include past wrestlers in their primes)
Bret Hart
Steve Austin
Chris Jericho
Undertaker
Randy Savage

20). (This is stolen from another thread) Finally, if Vince McMahon and/or Dixie Carter (or any other authority in wrestling) asked you for one minute of advice, what feedback would you deliver with the highest priority?
Don't try to please everyone, just pick a direction and stick with it.
