27/07/04 - Interview : Psychofett


Psychofett, thanks so much for taking the time to speak with us today. As most people know already, you underwent emergency surgery last month. The big question has to be, how are you feeling?

I've got a big scar. Chicks dig scars right? Ha Ha Ha. No seriously though I'm feeling pretty good considering that I could barely move or sleep for two weeks. Its been just over seven weeks now and although the pain catches me off guard every now and then I feel I'm making good progress. The plus side of being sidelined by injury is you get to lay around the house all day. The minus is that I've put on a bit of "holiday weight". All in all, the aching in my gut is not as bad as the aching I have to get back into the squared circle!

How soon do you anticipate that you will be ready to rejoin the active EPW roster?

Well my doctors have told me not to do any real activity for the next eight weeks. Nuts to that. I've been back running and lifting some light weights to try and get back into my normal fine physical form. So I'd like to say sooner than later, but later than sooner it could soon be. Later. What? Man does anyone else think I'm funny? I do. But to guestimate I'd have to say... RE-AWAKENING!

Last year you had Brock Freeman turn on you in tag match. This year it was Devlin Reeves. What do you think makes you a target for these deceitful types?

Apparently I'm some kind of Evolution tag-match chump. I of course know that I should be a champ. In any case I think I'm such a bullseye target because I'm such an easy scapegoat. I mean why should they take responsibility for their losses and shortcomings when they can blame the happy, laughy, chubby man? That's the problem with those jerks, they refuse to believe anything they do is wrong. To succeed you must first be willing to fail. Houlier-than-thou kind of stuff from these saps will only take them to the bottom. Next year there there will be NONE of that! No dice!

What will your main goals be when you return to EPW?

Well as you all know I'm a pretty funny guy. And don't get me wrong I'll always be that guy. But I know there's a time to joke around and time to be serious. With prospects like NWA just starting up I think its time for me to step up to the proverbial plate (this isn't baseball), and show the rest of Australia that I'm a serious wrestling contender. I've trained with the best in EPW and the best from other states and I know that I have what it takes. I'm a 2001 state freestyle wrestling gold medal champion for pete's sake. I'm proud of that fact, and its a hidden talent that not many know; I'm actually a pretty good scientific and technical wrestler. So its hard training and dedication to become the best around. I might need a movie montage though...

With Re-Awakening coming up I have to ask. What does Re-Awakening mean to Psychofett?

Re-Awakening is a magical time. Its not something I would miss. There's that special buzz in the air and everyone in the locker room feels it, and when the wrestlers feel it, the fans feel it too. I've competed at all three and been in two of the tournaments, and I plan on making an impact at RA '04. What that is right now I don't know, but I'm sure it will become clearer as I get closer to the event. RA is the time to show who you are to Perth, and even to the rest of the world. It's to show that I can come back from such a crippling injury and still give it all my heart and all my passion.

Do you have any last words for the fans of EPW?

Thanks to all the fans for being so wonderful in their support since my operation and in the past years as I begin my journey in pro wrestling. Its been a fantastic trip, and I hope that I've inspired people to live their dreams, to do whatever it is they love, and to never ever compromise who they are to anyone else. If I can do it, anyone can. And I hope they all do, because I'm not sure if they know it, but being there for me gives me one of the greatest feelings ever. I thank you deeply for that. Thank you!

Psychofett thank you once again for taking the time to speak to us.
