want to thank Akasha for her time and for breaking the new and longest interview time on 3 hours and 11 minutes O_O sure took a while but enjoy guys! and as always if you're interested in being interviewed hit me up on SL or Facebook // Tyress Serevi
give us a small introduction about yourself
I'm Akasha Faulkes, a.k.a "The Uncanny Enigma" and one half of the Queens of Anarchy .
IF you have a Stage/nickname: How did you get it?
The Uncanny Enigma ... *sighs and smiles* It is actually the reflection of my personality ... I'm an enigma, a mystery to people and even to myself must I admit ... People never really know how to react towards me because one day I can be with them, and the other against them ... I kind of have this uncanny ability to always have a plan in advance and to unsettle people ... *smirks* I'm a living Uncanny Enigma ...
How did you Find Second Life and what made you join?
Actually I was a student when i joined Second Life, I wanted to know people from all over the world and practice my English everyday, I thought this would be a great idea to give it a try !
How did you get into SL wrestling?
*grins* wow ... this was a long time ago ... I was looking for something fun to do and I discovered that people opened wrestling federations, I went there to have a look and watch some shows ... And there, somebody contacted me for VCW. They were looking for new wrestlers and they were interested in me, so I had an interview and they hired me as a wrestler. Best day of my SL *chuckles*
What Made you decide to get into SL Wrestling?
For once people believed in me and in what i was capable of doing ... It felt like home ... I knew I had to become a wrestler ... When I met Seth Cameron at VCW, I was literaly in awe and I was busting my ass off and promised myself to reach the top, because I wanted to be like him ...
do you have a Dream achievement to accomplish in SL wrestling?
I've had the most insane career i've ever imagined, I've been in the epic Scaffold Match, I've been fighting in an electrified cage, I've gone totally crazy on hardcore things, flew from incredible heights, won awards and I have the best tag team partner one could ever dream of ... I've never been running after titles so much but I guess the only thing I haven't had yet is the VWE Women's Championship ...
Why did you decide to use a Raven as your Pet?
Ahhh Nevemore ... *grins* I am fascinated by crows and ravens ... I am a huge fan of "The Crow", Eric Draven being one of my mentors in life , and I always had a kind of bond with crows ... I also love Edgar Allan Poe and one of the most beautiful poem he wrote "The Raven", that is why I called my Raven 'Nevermore' ...
What do you think makes Your Character Special?
" I am the Uncanny Enigma and I have no limit " ... This sentence could almost answer to that question ... I'm not afraid of pushing myself to the extreme, I'm not afraid to bleed, to jump from insane places and I always find something crazy to do wherever i wrestle ... I think what makes my character special is that constant creativity and insanity in the ring, I want the crowd to react, may they scream, cheer, boo, have their breath taken, I'm a performer and I'm here for them and I give everything I have to come up with the craziest sh*t.
why did you decide to go with the Uncanny Gimmick?
It's a way for me to express myself and to release in the ring everything that is buried within me, to release that rage from the difficulties of life and use it as a strength ... I have evolved a lot in my career, I used to be that kind of mysterious freak, appearing at anytime, twisting people's mind and playing mind games with them ... I'm still that kind of character nowadays but in a more um ... let's say realistic way ... the crowd has loved me and now hates me so bad ... *smirks* that is such a thrilling feeling to have people reacting whenever you enter the ring ... I wanted to be uncanny to constantly surprise people and not have them staying in a kind of "routine" with me ...
what is the name of your finishers and what are they?
I have two finishers : the "Enigmalicious Swirl" which is a front flip DDT, and the "Mystery in Motion" which is um ... *rubs the back of her neck* a weird move, i don't really know how to describe it, it's a bit like an Inverted 360 Shooting Star Press *winces and laughs* not sure it's understandable !
how long have you been in SL wrestling?
Hm ... In total it has been about 3 years and a half but I've had a break due to VCW closing so I was unemployed for let's say 4 months.
do you have any Dream Matches?
I do ... Actually there is one girl that i've never faced ... Well i did face her a long time ago in a 3-way TLC, but I mean like a real face to face ... She happens to be my only ally right now but this is "The Hardcore Freak" Jennf Parkin ! Just me and her in this ring, giving everything we have in one of the most hardcore matches ever would make history ! *laughs*
if you could pick 5 Matches in any Federation which has been your favorites?
Hm ... There are a lot of incredible matches that have happened in the wrestling community ... I love that crazy match at HKWF for the Hardcore title, Jenn ran into Loody Graves with the ambulancy truck, EPIC ! Another one was Benbe Kirax VS Seth Cameron at Elimination Royale, simply amazing ! Oh and definitely the BWA match between Jenn and Elisa !!! *scratches her head* Ahh so many matches, how many have i said so far 3? Wow ... Hard to choose ...
Nah, I really can't choose *shakes her head
How long have you been in your current Fed?
Forever ! I am actually one of the founders of VWE.
what have you accomplished in SL wrestling?
Oh boy ... Well as i said earlier I'm one of the founders of VWE, I created and was the first GM of VWE Primetime ... In terms of titles I've been the last HKWF Women's Champion, the first VWE Xtreme Women's Champion and the HAWX Hellkatz Champion ... I've been awarded 3 times, I've received the award of the VWE General Manager of the Year 2010, VWE Feud of the Year 2010 and the VWE Bombshell Match of the Year 2011 ... When it comes to performances I've been winning the 1st Scaffold Match as well as the 1st Electrified Fence Match, both for titles, and on a lighter note i've been the cover of the 1st VWE Bombshell Magazine, special Lingerie.
do you have a Dream Tag team Partner/Stable members?
*grins* Well ... I think i have fulfilled one of my dreams when it comes to Tag Teams as i'm currently teaming up with Jennf Parkin, but there is one person I would've dreamt of teaming up with if I ever had the chance to, and that is "The Eliminator" Seth Cameron ... *nods* Yeah ... That would definitely be my perfect tag team partner ...
if you could be the booker for 1 day and you could pick Any wrestler male or female from any fed who would you pick for the Mainevent?
Tough one ... I would make a mixed tag team match i think ... Shinja Ugajin, Jennf Parkin & MadMax Vaher VS Tyress Serevi, Benbe Kirax & Seth Cameron
who trained you?
I was not really familiar with the ACPWS HUD when i arrived in HKWF, so the friend i made there and a very talented wrestler, Kimberly Soulstar, took some of her time to show me how to kick some ass. *grins*
if you have a top 1 moment since the beginning of your Career to now can you tell us about that and why?
Without any doubt, the end of the Feud with Vendetta, the hardcore Scaffold Match at VWE Over Drive 2010 for the GM Rights of Primetime and the VWE Xtreme Women's Championship. We've been feuding for 6 months, the heat was so intense and what was on the line was so important .... I fought for my rights, I wanted Primetime back, I wanted my show back and I was ready to do anything to get it back even if i had to die for it. I was the current Xtreme Women's Champion and it was a "Winner gets all" match ... Getting out of this mess, this pile of steel, filled with weapon, even that freaking chainsaw ... I've been crawling backstage, but victorious ... That ... Was the top 1 moment of my entire career, and will probably forever be ...
is there anyone you'd like to thank for being there since you began your adventure in SL wrestling?
*takes a deep breath and joins her hands nervously*
I have known one person in here since the first day of my career ... All this time this person is my idol, my model ... Times goes by and he became my inspiration, my mentor, the big brother i've never had and the most precious friend i have in here ... Thanking this person is just so weak compared to all the thing he did for me, he's always been there whenever i needed too, he always gave me that hand to get back on my feet whenever i had fallen, he was also there to bop me on the head when i was seeing things clearly ... I never thought such support could come from only one person ... Without him I would've never been where I am now and I would've given up so many times ... He's to me the best wrestler and performer our community had and will ever have ... I wanna thank from the bottom of my heart ... *pauses* Seth Cameron ...
I would also like to thank my family in here and all those that i love to death and came on my path throughout my SL ... Benbe
, Bryce, Tyress, Jenn ... The list is long and i would spend hours talking about them all ... So please don't think ill of me if your name is not mentionned in this interview, you all know who you are and i love you ...
And last but not least, I want to thank all my fans who supported me ... My Enigma-G-Nation, you're the best fans a performer could ever dream of having, you're my force, you're the reason why i wake up every morning and work hard on being the best .... Thank you all
If you have been in more then One Federation how many have you been in and what was the names?
I have started with VCW, then went to HKWF, co-founded VWE (which had so many different names at the beginning) and i've also been working at HAWX.
do you have anyone that inspires you in SL wrestling? and why?
I think i have mentionned his name like a thousand times already *laughs* but Seth is my main inspiration when it comes to wrestling, that guy never sleeps and gives so much to the community ... He's an amazing performer and has a lot of charisma ... I also admire people like Jenn who works like crazy and had achieved so much ... Dude! She's been an effing World Heavyweight Champion !!! I must also admit that Vendetta has inspired me a lot during our feud ... She's so creative and has a lot of very interesting ideas ...
Do you have anyone that inspires you in RL wrestling and why?
I do ... I think it's kind of obvious that Lita is one of my main influences when it comes RL wrestling ... That chick is just crazy, she's tough and sexy, she can kick ass and make guys and girls completely melt ... She has a hell lot of talent and potential ... And I dare anybody to prove me wrong, she's been the best diva ever ...
If you have a custom Attire what is the colors? if not what do you normally wear?
I've had lots of different styles, but i've almost always been wearing baggy pants, and i'm mostly wearing grunge/urban edgy clothes ... I used to change my hair color all the time but lately i've stuck with red , it's a color that fits very well with what i am.
what is your Ring Style?
I'd say ... I'm an Extreme Highflyer ... Taking a lot of risks and flying from everywhere, even if you take off the ropes i always find a way to fly ... And extreme for the hardcore side as well as the crazy sh*t i can put on at times *grins* gosh I miss my barbwire table, don't you? *smirks*
what is your favorite Move?
I gotta admit i have a soft spot for the Moonsault, you can use that move in so many ways and come up with insane settings, I simply LOVE it !
name top 5 Finishers in SL wrestling Custom and Non-custom that you have seen in a match:
I can't really make a top 5 but my favorite finishers would be your Hyper Nova, Misaki's Black Widow Choke, Shinja's Nuclear Anarchy , Bryce's Perfect Effect , and maybe Vendetta's Awesome Sauce
can you name your top 5 Feuds in any Fed of SL wrestling?
Vendetta VS Cinthia Falmer at the decay of JHG - Elisa Riddler VS Nanny Gothly at HAWX - Brakman Wylder VS Alexius Gant - I like the big storyline with Impac Mafia and Seth betraying Ben was some really heavy and the feud Seth had with Loody when he
once again, not a top 5 , just picking some of my favorites
Any Special Match you'd like to see? if so between who?
I think a buried alive match between Draconia and Lilith would be quite badass !
as we know theres alot of rumors in SL wrestling some are bad some are good what do you think causes these rumors?
That's always a very burning issue in here ... I'm trying to ignore it as much as i can because this whole situation is just free cruelty and useless drama ... I think that here, like everywhere there are people with bad intentions ready to do absolutely everything to ruin their competitors and gain more power ... Rumors are the best weapons and ignorance the best defense ... And I think that people are taking those rumors too seriously and this is how the heat grows and grows and BAM it explodes ... People forget a lot that this is a game, that we're here to entertain people and to do our best to do it ... This is because of people like those who spread rumors and crap that it deteriorates our job and make people lose interest.
if you could name top 3 Feds which would they be and why?
I'll admit i'm totally biased on that one *laughs* but I will say VWE because we've grown up so incredibly in a couple of months and we've gone further than we've ever thought ... Then, because they're the oldest federation to still be 'alive' and that i admire how long they've been in action despite some issues they've gone through, i have to give credits to the DCWF ... And the last fed I really like is HAWX, i really love this idea of having an exclusively female federation, it gives the opportuniy to women to show up what they're worth and to prove that we can do amazing performances... And even be better than guys *winks*
what is your opinion on the "SL Wrestling Community"
It's a community in constant evolution, with its ups and downs, currently going through a lot of changes and sadly drama ... I wish people were more united, we're all here for the same thing, wrestling ... So why do we have to constantly spread rumors, spy on each other, be in war with this or that federation, i really don't get it ... I'm not gonna play the "we should be a big family and love each other like brothers and sisters" but FOR F*CK SAKE people grow up and stop making this a pain to everybody ...
any last words?
nah it's not my last word xD
