Wrestlezone Interview

Final Form Snyper.

GOAT Human Being
Impactplayer: How are you going Morris Dewey and The Times, I thought I'd take this time to interview you and sort of get see the way you think and your general views on life, wrestling and Wrestlezone.

Impactplayer: So I'll start off with a simple question to get us started.

Impactplayer: What made you join WrestleZone? Was it the then Bar Room.......... Was it the General layout of the forums, was it the level of quality the members that are here?

Morris Dewey and the Times: Well if you dig through my history you'll notice that yes I did post more in what was the Bar Room, but nearly 98 % of my post count is from the music section. Shit, my first post was in the music section. What attracted me was that the forums had everything covered.

Impactplayer: Great answer by the way Dewey. When you joined here who were the posters that you would agree or enjoy reading the most?

Morris Dewey and the Times: Easy NSL and I hit it off right off the bat, just our mutual love of Kittie was instant. From there it grew into a true BroMance...

Impactplayer: Hey in the modern days there is room for bromance. Do you think that there is a place for The Cage?

Morrie Dewey and the Times: Absolutely it gives us a place to be generic assholes and we all need that.

Impactplayer: Last question about Wrestlezone, Does your time in the Cage change your perspective of a poster?

Morris Dewey and the Times: Absolutely not. 'Tis all in good fun, until Game Rage makes an alt. I doubt ninety percent of what's said is serious.

Impactplayer: Lets get into the Wrestling side of things.

Impactplayer: What year did you start watching wrestling and what made you a fan of this great sport?

Morris Dewey and the Times: 84. I was one year old and captured by the spectacle, from what my Daddy has told me. Instant love.

Impactplayer: Wow you've been a wrestling fan for 26 years and counting that's impressive. Do you have a single wrestler that is your favorite?

Morris Dewey and the Times: Brian Pillman. No question. Won't even explain myself for that one.

Impactplayer: Ahhh the Loose Cannon, he always had me on the edge of my seat. Do you think the modern day fan of wrestling's opinion of what makes a great wrestler is different to what a fan would think made a great wrestler say throughout the 70's and 80's?

Morris Dewey and the Times: Yes. Not even a question in my mind. Just as fans in the eighties wouldn't appreciate a Frank Gotch match like the turn of the century spectators. Most fans today are enamored with Rock and Austin.

Impactplayer: The likes of Dean Malenko never had a chance, such great wrestling talent but fans seem more accepting to the entertainers. Most people would have Ric Flair in their Top 5 greatest wrestlers of all time, would you agree on this if not why?

Morris Dewey and the Times: No doubt. He'd never be in my favorites list........ but GREATEST? Yeah he deserves it.

Impactplayer: It's great to see the respect shown for the Nature Boy, he has always been high on my list. Hulk Hogan has been known to be the man of wrestling in the 80's to what Bret Hart was in the 90's to what Stone Cold and The Rock were from 1997 to 2002, Who do you think will be the Icon onwards from now....... do we already have him in John Cena or is this person yet to make their stake?

Morris Dewey and the Times: Absolutely it's John Cena. Nobody has proven otherwise. I'll give a VERY close second to a tie of AJ Styles and Randy Orton.

Impactplayer: It doesn't look good to only rest faith on a handful to push us forward. Last wrestling question for you.......... What promotion do you follow and what would their main strengths be?

Morris Dewey and the Times: Honestly, I'll follow any solid product. From CHIKARA to WWE. That's the only requirement. Entertain me one way or another.

Impactplayer: Thanks for your time Morris Dewey and the Times and I hope this was as good for you as it has been for me.

This is my debut interview, I have never done one before. I hope it does good and I thank Morris Dewey and the Times for participating in this.

Please don't hesitate to leave comments and pointers to better the format of an interview for the future.
 
Obviously it's your first interview but here is a tip for the next ones, Try and not ask the same questions. every interview. Because most of the answers will almost be the same.
 
True, I've just made a general interview sheet and sent it to the people who said they wanted to do it. I think I might need to resend a better interview sheet, with some unique questions.
 
Thanks for taking the time Theo, I really appreciate this.

Impactplayer: I thought I'd take this time to interview you and sort of get see the way you think and your general views on life, wrestling and Wrestlezone.

Impactplayer: So I'll start off with a simple question to get us started.

Impactplayer: What made you join WrestleZone? Was it the then Bar Room.......... Was it the General layout of the forums, was it the level of quality the members that are here?

Theo Maysock: The reason I joined was to discuss the WZ tournament. I was pulling for Bret Hart and I decided this would be a good time to get my posting going. I believe though backing Hitman I had a campaign for Ted Dibiase. Later on, once I was comfortable with myself I decided to venture out and get myself recognized.

Impactplayer: When you joined here who were the posters that you would agree or enjoy reading the most?

Theo Maysock: Great question. Early one my favorite poster had to be X. I enjoyed everything he posted, as he was entertaining and tended to agree with most he said. Lately I've enjoyed the likes of all the graphics guys. Whether it rangers from Shocky or Doc to Stinger or Riaku. I enjoy them all.


Impactplayer: Do you think that there is a place for The Cage?

Theo Maysock: Of course. It allows everyone to cross the line and be a different kind of person. No holds barred. Everyone could use a bit of that in their lifestyle nowadays.


Impactplayer: Last question about Wrestlezone, Does your time in the Cage change your perspective of a poster?

Theo Maysock: Sort of. It allows us to see a different side of everyone. It won't make me hate someone because of it, because that would be silly. But it totally makes you see a new side of some guys, which is cool and all, since you are use to seeing either their non spam side or spam side of things.


Impactplayer: Lets get into the Wrestling side of things.

Impactplayer: What year did you start watching wrestling and what made you a fan of this great sport?

Theo Maysock: My dad use to tell me that I was watching wrestling for as long as he can remember. Was born in 89 and I'd have to say come 92 I was fully involved in the aspect of things. That and sports was all I cared about as a little kid. Pretty much the same as now haha.

Impactplayer: Do you have a single wrestler that is your favourite?

Theo Maysock: Most definitely Bret Hart. My dad use to tell me that I'd cry when Bret lost and he knew that Bret was my favorite. This has pretty much stuck with me. I enjoy Bret matches all the time and I seek them out whenever I'm in a wrestling mood.

Impactplayer: Do you think the modern day fan of wrestling's opinion of what makes a great wrestler is different to what a fan would think made a great wrestler say throughout the 70's and 80's?

Theo Maysock: I definitely think it has a different view. I'm no wrestling historian, but wrestling back in the 70/80's had to do with wrestling instead of building a storyline through the ring or the mic. Back then relied on in ring skill compared to overall skill. Of course there are the greats that could fit in any area, but they are first come first serve.

Impactplayer: Most people would have Ric Flair in their Top 5 greatest wrestlers of all time, would you agree on this if not why?

Theo Maysock: There is no doubt Flair deserves a top 5 mention. While he may not be in my personal top 5, he definitely is one of the 5 greatest wrestlers to lace up the boots. He is one of the rare breeds that could step into any era and can succeed.


Impactplayer: Hulk Hogan has been known to be the man of wrestling in the 80's to what Bret Hart was in the 90's to what Stone Cold and The Rock were from 1997 to 2002, Who do you think will be the Icon onwards from now....... do we already have him in John Cena or is this person yet to make their stake?

Theo Maysock: No doubt it is John Cena. Closest guy would be Triple H and he hasn't made the impact of Cena as of late. Hogan was an actor and was built strong during his time and Cena is just the same. Love both of the guys and respect them like no other. Cena is to what Hogan was back then.


Impactplayer: Most people will say John Cena, so you definitely wouldn't be only person saying Cena. Last wrestling question for you.......... What promotion do you follow and what would their main strengths be?

Theo Maysock: I follow both the WWE and TNA, but if I had to choose it would be the E. I've been a fanboy since I started watching and I don't think I could ever leave. Right now the strength of the E would be that of building future stars. Morrison, Miz, Bryan, Del Rio, Sheamus, etc.. have been the focus and it seems like all are on the rise and that is definitely a plus.


Impactplayer: Thanks for your time and I hope this was as good for you as it has been for me.

Theo Maysock: It has been a blast for me as well. Always enjoy shooting the shit about wrestling and anything else and I wish you the best of success in future interviews and you know that I'll be reading.

: This is WrestleZone........... where The Cage exists.
 
Nice job man, well done, my few suggestions would be what has already been said. I'd used quote tags to break up the interview, ya know put the person you are interviewing in quote tags. It's be more work, but I think it would read better that way, than just color coding. And I would also make a few general interview sheets or write up a pool of questions, to use to change things up, but again good job and it's been fun reading these two.
 
Dewey is rad. I would welcome and interview if you're asking the hard hitting questions.

What does Armbar think of Hungry Man frozen dinners?

Who is Armbar's favorite lounge singer?

And so on.
