Interview!
NWA-TNA Wrestler, nWo Valet &
Playboy Model You are into modeling,
fitness, wrestling, and a host of other professions. What career
do you think brings you the most attention? I would say modeling. But it's funny how things
work...you're more of a novelty in wrestling if you're a model and
you're more of a novelty in fitness if you wrestle. The grass is always
greener... What is your ultimate goal in
modeling? I never really had one. The modeling I did was pretty
"unconventional" -- let's just say it wasn't high fashion. My goals were
just to have fun, try not to get f'ked over, try lots of different looks
and make it profitable. Oh, I did always wanted to be in Penthouse and
never got there. That's my one regret. But I did Playboy. What are some of the more
well known publications that you have modeled in? The aforementioned Playboy, Hustler, MuscleMag, Max,
Ironman, Iron Horse, Pro Wrestling Illustrated, and a garden variety of
nudie, men's, fitness and wrestling magazines. What are some publications
that you won't work with? None. There are photographers I won't work with, like
Rob Sims because he's a one of the ones who will f'k you over while
smiling to your face, but that's about it. Do you have anything for sale
on your site that you would like to talk about? Lots and lots of sexy, cool DVD's and videos. Oh, and
my site. www.AprilHunter.com
To travel the world on someone else's dime and to be
the best female wrestling What would you consider your
favorite match? Probably my match in What is your relationship
with Slyck Wagner Brown? Slyck is very a cool, very laid back Jamaican who is
good at his one and only true love: wrestling. He's my tag team and
travel partner. He also trained me (at Killer Kowalski's) and is one of
my closest friends. Compared to other female
wrestlers, how do you rate yourself? That's a hard question. I think I have a little extra
going for me because I already had a name coming into wrestling and am
lucky in that I have the height, a look and was trained by a very good
school. But as far as my actual talent and matches...you'd have to ask
the fans. What do you think of other
female wrestlers? Maybe you can tell us your thoughts on Chyna,
Trish Stratus, and Tracy Brooks. I actually think pretty highly of the girls who work
in and at wrestling. It can be a difficult business to stick to some
days. Chyna is da' woman...she became one of the only female "household
names" in wrestling. Trish is awesome and works very hard; hurt, tired,
she gets out there and does it well. How was your time at Killer
Kowalski's school? Chyna's book portrays him as a slave driver. I know. That surprised me. I guess everyone has their
own opinions about him, but Killer was always great to me. Warm, funny,
perverted...a typical old wrestler! He was always willing to jump up,
tell you how stupid you were being and show you how to get it right. I
like him. Where do you see yourself in
five years? I really don't have a clue. I'm just going to run
with the ball and hope it takes me far. Thanks for your time, is
there anything you would like to say to your fans? Thanks for reading! If you want to know and see lots

Bert is Good
![]()
Indiana Jonestown -
Foreign Ministry Pimp Over the past few years Muppet Bert has gotten a horrible reputation as a pimp, professional wrestler, Nazi sympathizer, and boyfriend of Pamela Lee. This is all due to a website titled ?Bert is Evil.? "I remember when we first formed the Muppet World Order," said Animal, the original mWo member. ?I came out first, the next week we brought out Bert, then at Bash at the Beach 1996 we unveiled Hollywood Kirmet as our mystery partner.? "Bert got a lot of heat for the whole mWo ordeal, but that was only the beginning of the bad publicity for Bert," said Hollywood Kirmet the Frog, mWo leader and Muppet spokesperson. ?Afro-Squad?s Pimp O? Rama" then listed him as one of the all time greatest pimps.? From there Bert had a much publicized video featuring himself and Pamela Lee. Then there were the altered pictures of Bert and Hitler. True Bert fans knew those were nothing more than a hoax. ?Over the past few years, I have done a lot to improve my image,? said Bert, the Muppet, the myth, the legend. ?I started off by working with the Cookie Monster. He had become addicted to cookies, and was a diabetic by the time I started working with him.? From there Bert started assisting other fallen child superstars. He got Punky Brewster and Tootie their much needed reductions. Then we went on to get Ricky Schroeder his job with NYPD Blue. "Everybody started talking trash about Bert and I,? said former roommate Ernie. ?People need to remember that we were kids when we shared a room. It?s not like we were sharing a room with Michael Jackson.? Afro-Squad would like to let readers know that we totally support Bert. Despite some satire in this article, we love Bert. Muppets rule. If anyone at Jim Henson studios finds this offensive, we will remove it immediately. |

Shark Boy Interview: From the depths of the ocean and appearing in professional wrestling rings across the land, we are here to interview Shark Boy ?. So how did you come up with the Shark Boy gimmick? Are there any plans to tag with John ?Shark? Tenta or the Lobsterman? The whole thing was originally inspired by a song and promoter Ian Rotten helped put the finishing touch on the name. My brother and I designed the look of the character. With regard to the second question, I've had plenty of unusual partners in the past, so nothing would surprise me. How about a Shark Girl? Are there any plans for the wife or girlfriend to accompany you to the ring? No, not right now. There was a "Shark Girl" character briefly, but nothing long-term. I think it would be fun to do that angle at some point when the time is right. When I see you on TNA, they sometimes announce your schools of fans. Who came up with that? It?s great. I'm not sure, but I think maybe Scott Hudson came up with that when I was in WCW. I agree with you, it's great. It sounds like Hudson. You?ve wrestled in a lot of organizations, which one have you liked the most? I'm having so much fun with TNA right now, so I would have to say them. I also really enjoy performing in front of friends and family at Buckeye Pro Wrestling events in Ohio. How would you compare XPW and ECW? I never worked for ECW, but the fans in XPW were great to me. They got with my character right away in both Philadelphia and Los Angleles. I'm not really an "extreme" wrestler, but the character is so unique that the fans were really able to connect with it. In my last few wrestling interviews, nobody commented on Rob Black because they were all suing him. How was it to work with him? He was always very professional to me and I have nothing bad to say about him personally. And how would you compare Rob Black and Paul Heyman? Both had a vision and ideas about taking the wrestling product to "the next level". I think the biggest difference is that Heyman has a much stronger concept of "wrestling" while Black's specialty seemed to be shocking people. Speaking of shocking, what do you think of hardcore wrestling? I'm not a huge fan of it personally, but I understand its place in the industry. Were you a backyard wrestler as a youngster? Yeah, I guess you could say that. We never did anything "extreme" or "hardcore". We just had fun. Have you ever played the game titled Backyard Wrestling? I am sure many fans would like to see your character on there. I haven't had the chance to yet, but I know I will at some point. It will be great to finally see my character on a video game someday. You?ve worked with WCW and XPW? all of those companies were ill-fated. Do you see that sort of future for TNA? I think big things are still to come for TNA. You don?t think you jinxed those other companies, do you? Lol, I hope not. I?ve seen some photos with you and Shane Helms. Are you two friends? I would love to see a big push for a ?Super Friends? group in the WWE. Yes, we are good friends, and I too would love to see he and Rosey get a great big push. What has been your biggest match to date, and what is the largest crowd you performed for? I once performed on a WCW Nitro in Cleveland with more than 10,000 people in the crowd. I'd say that was one of the bigger houses. As for my biggest match, that depends on the criteria. I've been on plenty of the TNA pay-per-view events as well as the WWA events in Las Vegas and Glasgow, Scotland. Are you currently selling any t-shirts or videos that you can tell us about? All of the above are available at www.SharkBoy.net. Check it out... and thanks for following the fin! Well thanks for the interview. Hopefully we'll hear back from you on occasion. Good luck with your career. Women's
