I'd like to Thank Curt for taking his time to make this interview I'm sure you'll find it very interesting! so enjoy guys! also still looking for people to interview specially from UHW,OEW,HAWX
Tyress: give us a small introduction about yourself
Curt: Oh jeez where Do i begin?
Well The Name is Curt Bombastic, Obviously. Been Around SL for almost 3 years now, Been involved in RL wrestling For over 15 years ... Ummmm Yea, Known as The "Irresistible One" and I currently Wrestle at United Honour wrestling ... oh, and I'm an asshole -lol-
Tyress: He totally forgot Curt F'n Bombastic
Tyress: IF you have a Stage/nickname: How did you get it?
Curt: LOL ... I do have several names that people call me .. all to which I'm used to but I'm known as "The Irresistible One" ... Funny story on that as it traces back to my RL training days ... the man who originally trained me was Sweet Daddy Siki .. His moniker was "Mr. Irresistible" ... so I use the name "Irresistible One" in tribute to him, plus he gave it to me after a year in RL wrestling, saying I earned it
Tyress: How did you Find Second Life and what made you join?
Curt: Well I can thank my rl best friend for that, Ruff Zepp, owner of Red Dog Gear .. for a year he kept on telling me about SL, at How AMAZING and cool it was ... so finally, to shut him up, I told him I'll try it ... I created my Avatar and well .. the rest is history .... He got me hooked
Tyress: interesting way to join Second Life
Tyress: How did you get into SL wrestling?
Curt:once again, Blame Ruff ... It was 4 months into SL, I was helping him at his old Race track., He KNEW I used to wrestle and was a Huge fan of wrestling and he went out and Gathered a TON of wrestling Landmarks for me to check out like Alpin's old Arena, Loody's old GCW, the old DCWF, HKWF, XWA and a few Others ... I looked at them all, and found I liked what I saw from the XWA, so I applied .. and That's where I started .. I had a blast there ... Today its the VWE and although I'm no longer there (haven't been for 2 years now) I STILL love the place
Tyress: ....I am starting to feel old...
Tyress: What Made you decide to get into SL Wrestling?
Curt: Well At first I wasn't sure about It ... I had no One train me, all I knew was I could buy alipn's moves ... but no one showed me ... But when i applied at XWA, people like Jenn here, and Loody, Kim and a few others were nice enough to teach me the basics ... so really, what I loved about it was the fact that People in this Community were willing to give some one new a chance ... I decided then and there that I wanted to do this. After all, I ALWAYS loved it in RL .. and was Always a fan, even though I did it in RL so why not do it on SL too?
Tyress: do you have a Dream achievement to accomplish in SL wrestling?
Curt: Personally ... Yes and No ... EVERYONE wants to be "The Champion" ... lets Face it ... and I admit, when I first started doing this, that WAS my Goal .. but My goals have changed alot since then. I think I've accomplished what i set out to do. My Goal is to put on quality Matches that people can walk away from and say "Wow, what a GREAT match!!" .. I don't care if I'm winning or losing. If I put on a good match, then I'm happy. I've trained quite a few people as well. From Vicki Vain, to Maxine and More and I can proudly say "Yea, I trained them" .... I've helped establish the uHw as well ... so in a way, I've happy with what I've achieved in SL Wrestling. I'm not interested in winning titles, I'm interested in making anyone i can look good, if not BETTER than me at times.
Tyress: What do you think makes Your Character Special?
Curt: What sets him apart is He's .. well .. The asshole. Yes, There has been plenty of Heels .. and Really good ones too .. From Jenn, to Seth Cameron, to Shinja, to Alpin, To Numbers Rossini and BigEvil, to Horses ... But i like to think I bring the unusual swagger, the cocky arrogance with my Heel character. one like Kurt Angle, the late Great Curt Hennig (gee, I'm seeing a Pattern here) and even Randy Orton in his Heel days .... plus, I like to Bring a Big Fight atmosphere to my Matches. Incorporate Mix Martial arts like Muay Thai. People like me and Shinja and Andrea Fawcett, we Brought a unique Style of Wrestling to SL called Strong Style, made popular in Japan .. Hell, even Derrick Cult uses that style too ...
Tyress: what is the name of your finishers and what are they?
Curt: Oh Boy .. Lets Get Comfy, shall we? I use All sorts cuz I like to put my opponents away in many different ways. First off, there's the "Canadian Clutch", which is known in Japan as the Gorilla Clutch. Its a Reverse, Inverted Texas Cloverleaf/Ankle lock Submission Hold .. a move NO ONE has ever escaped from ... I also have the Northern Lights Driver, My Tribute to the Late Misawa who Used that move himself, which is basically a Scoop Piledriver ... For Quick Surprise Ending I have three Versions of The Irresistible Ending, which is a RKO/Diamond Cutter, but I use variations of it like the front Leaping STO and a Reverse Leaping STO as well ... Plus I'm working on a New one that I plan on debuting soon .. a little something I like to call the Mainlining Murder .... but that will be revealed in due time -grins-
Tyress: how long have you been in SL wrestling?
Curt: Thinks here ... Jeez, I think We're going on 2 1/2 years, Maybe 3 Now .... Yea That's about right ... almost 3 years now .. wow, Time Flies, I guess, huh?
Tyress: do you have any Dream Matches?
Curt: Who Doesn't? There are Re-matches I would LOVE to have, Me vs. Seth Cameron again, Me vs. Benja Nirvana and beat the "daddy thing outta him -lol- .. Ummm I would have LOVED to face Alpin Criss ... Hell, even Jenn here, I would have LOVED to have a match with Her .. it be bloody, It be violent .. it be FUN ... even I admit, I'd love to face YOU one day as I LOVE wrestling High Fliers with my style of wrestling. Me vs. Brakman Wylder again would be another Fun match .. I ALWAYS loved facing Derrick Zane as well ....
Tyress: I'd totally make him tap to the black hole...or try to see how flexible he is to the breaking stars..
Curt: Another Match I'd love would be against Bazza Windlow ... One day I'll face that rat Bastard -lol-
Tyress: if you could pick 5 Matches in any Federation which has been your favorites?
Curt: Oh Boy .. Lets see ..... Jerico vs Bazza or Mythil were an AMAZING Matches .. LOVED watching those three go at it .... Vendetta vs. Akasha Faulkes .. One HELL of a Feud ... even the HAWx feud involving Jenn Parkin vs. Vendetta ... man, That was Violent and I LOVED it .....I Never got to See Alpin Criss face Shinja's "cousin" .. But Heard their I Quit match was not only LONG but set the Standard .. wish I could have seen it .... Plus, the Last VWE Elimination Chamber Match ... I watched it and I had to give EVERYONE a round of applause .. It was REALLY good
Tyress: How long have you been in your current Fed?
Curt :I've Been in uHw since its Beginning .. and We're Coming up to I believe a year now .... so Yea, About a year, if not a little longer
Tyress: what have you accomplished in SL wrestling?
Curt: I can proudly say I was there for the Early days of the XWA which became, as we all know, the VWE ... and helped establish it with allot of Talented people .. I was one half of the first XWA/VWE Tag team champions .... I've Trained People like Vicki Vain, Benja Nirvana, Maxine Endrizzi and more, and also Helped Establish the uHw as one of its Founders ...Plus I like to think I've put on some of the best matches that the fans have seen. Matches like me vs. Derrick Zane, vs. Brakman, vs. Seth Cameron, vs. Dewski Hoxley and Mythil Worseck (Knows I just spelled his last name wrong .. Sorry Myth!! lol) and more ... I don't ever take full credit for those matches cuz it Takes TWO to make a great match .. but I'm proud of those matches
Tyress: do you have a Dream Tag team Partner/Stable members?
Curt: I'd LOVE to Bring back the Original Impac Mafia again ... Sam "The Man", Derrick Cult and Myself .. That be a blast ... Hell, I'd even love to team up with Derrick Zane one day .. if any arena can withstand our Combined Ego's ... I'd say I[d love to Team up with Benja & Drewski too but I'd be the Canadian with Two Texans and .. yea, that don't mix well .. but it WOULD be fun -lol-
Tyress: 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 Main event?
Curt: Loaded Question ... Hmmmm? ..... I'd LOVE to see Numbers Rossini vs. Seth Cameron ... guest Referee, Eric Stuart .. is it asking for trouble, yea .. but I think those Two would ACTUALLY put on a HELL of a match .. a good fight and one i KNOW everyone would love to see ...
Tyress: who trained you?
Curt: Initially, Loody Graves ... He gave me one day of Training though .... But Jenn Parkin here taught me allot, as did Kim Soulstar, Nanny Gothly and especially Vendetta who taught me to REALLY think outside the box
Tyress: if you have a top 1 moment since the beginning of your Career to now can you tell us about that and why?
Curt: I think That's a Tie .... One going two years back and one only recently .... the first one is a Match I had with Loody Graves. Say what you will about him but he and I had a FUN feud in its day ... which Ended with a Gauntlet Match. We involved Brandon Karsin (I believe), Brakman Wylder and MadMax ... It was GREAT ... We established Each of them as Future Stars and I did my Best to help them look good .. which was easy cuz Brakman and Max were already good ... They looked like a Million Bucks ... and Brandon eventually went on to Learn from that match too ... then the End had Me and loody .. I went through Hell, was a beaten and bloody match and Loody came in and EVERYONE thought I was done. a EASY pin .. Nope .. I fought back until the VERY end .. he pulled out EVERYTHING to beat me, and He still couldn't do it until he had Louve help him ... It was a GREAT match and I LOVED how it came out ... the other was my return to SL wrestling a month ago after taking time away ... I had EVERYONE cheering my name, welcoming me back and everything .. even those who I haven't always seen eye to eye, EVERYONE welcomed me back warmly .. it was truly touching and something I'll never forget
Tyress: is there anyone you'd like to thank for being there since you began your adventure in SL wrestling?
Curt: Some may be surprised by this cuz our History but Seth Cameron. Seriously, if it wasn't for him letting me be Me, I wouldn't be here today. He gave me the platform to become the type of wrestler I wanted to be and said "Go for it .. heres the ball, run with it" .. he took that chance on me and I can never thank him enough for that.
Tyress: If you have been in more then One Federation how many have you been in and what was the names?
Curt: Lets See ... I was in the XWA/VWE .. I've wrestled in DCWF, OEW, and the uWs which is now uHw
Tyress: do you have anyone that inspires you in SL wrestling? and why?
Curt: This may seem Odd but Derrick Zane. His character is a bastard like myself But behind the scenes, He's pretty unselfish. He only cares about Promoting The Other wrestlers, pushing THEM to be better and to improve. He has never cared for titles or wins and Losses. The same goes for Shinja .. I have so much respect for Him. Another would be Alpin. The reason is simple. Here's a Man who help CREATE the ACPWS system ... He could win ANY match he ever wanted. But has he? Nope. In his career he only won, what was it? 7 matches. SEVEN ... cuz he ALWAYS wanted to put his opponent over no matter what. I can respect that.
Tyress: Do you have anyone that inspires you in RL wrestling and why?
Curt: Sweet Daddy Siki is STILL a Mentor of mine. Plus I'm a HUGE Roddy Piper and Nick Bockwinkel fan .... currently, I LOVE watching Ring Of Honor .. guys like Davey Richards and even Kevin Steen ...
Tyress: If you have a custom Attire what is the colors?
Curt: currently its Black Red and Silver but I'm getting some New Gear made for me that are gonna be White, red and black ....
Tyress: as we know theres alot of rumors in SL wrestling some are bad some are good what do you think causes these rumors?
Curt: not knowing the facts, and I've been just as guilty about this as anyone. People hear one thing and spread it around with the "did you know .." or "I heard this .." BS ... if theres a rumor going around, try to get your facts, I say. Go to the source, ask politely .. if they refuse to answer, respect that and drop it. It's really that simple
Tyress: if you could name top 3 Feds which would they be and why?
Curt: Easy ... #1 - DCWF for Its Wrestling, #2 - HAWx for not only its wrestling and Story lines, but their uniqueness and creativity ... #3 is still the VWE for its Presentation Package, cuz they Make It LOOK good. That's not to say there isn't Great wrestling there, but man, VWE has always known how to take its product, wrap it in a great looking bow and present it as something HUGE in my opinion
Tyress: what is your opinion on the "SL Wrestling Community"
Curt: Its GETTING Better. ALOT better. In the past, the Dividing lines were deep, and their still deep to this day. It was the "You're with us or against us" mentality ... there WAS no community, but in the past 6 months to a year, those dividing lines has REALLY begun to heal. We're seeing wrestling promotions (Not companies, sorry, personal opinion there) now starting to work together for the greater good, and that's to Promote and Showcase SL Wrestling as a whole. And That's what I LOVE to see ...
