Hello everybody and welcome to a new Superstar Interview! Since the last time, the original writer of this interview – “The Word” Rudy Wynne – has become the General Manager of the BWP. As a result, he does not have the time to do these interviews anymore. Instead, he has put it into the capable hands of myself – Ben Fordyce – to conduct the interviews. And what an interview this week. At the last show this man became the first ever BWP catchweight champion. Welcome to the superstar interview Seb Winterz!
Seb: Great to be here.
Ben: So, obviously this last few months in the BWP for you have been incredible, but for those of you who haven’t been there since the beginning and followed your career, what have you done and where have you came from? Talk about your history please.
Seb: Well Fordy, before I was signed up by The Sax Man I use to wrestle in a small promotion based in my local area. However after I was taught the basics by a local grappler by the name of Reinheart, I fast grew too big for that place and I was lucky enough to be signed to the BWP.
Ben: Yes, about your entry into the BWP. You originally joined up with Night Stalker, and formed a tag team called the Transiberian Express. Tell me, he is a bit of a reclusive Russian, how did that tag team form? And how did you go your separate ways?
Seb: Ha ha, The Night Stalker isn’t so reclusive once he’s had a few drinks. I was training in Russian, learning the art of Sambo wrestling. One night in a bar I noticed this sulky figure getting started on by some KGB rejects. I helped out and saved Night Stalker that night, the rest is history. Despite being dominant in the tag team devision I fast realised we didn’t have tag team chemistry. I carried the team and realised that I could get wins against 1 person, instead of wrestling a team of 2 by myself. It just worked out easier for me.
Ben: You made the transfer into the singles arena well, with a strong showing at a show in Stoke and at Rhuddlan, you won the Wrestlefest Rumble. You also obtained at this show something you hadn’t heard during your time in the BWP, fans cheering. Why did you think fans warmed to you, and why did you warm to the fans?
Seb: Well at the Unholy Union match at Rhuddlan, this was the first match when I wasnt alligned with Night Stalker. I faced the G-Man that night and I think I earnt alot of respect by going toe to toe with one of the top single wrestlers at the time. Although the win was stolen from me by El Destello, I won something more then that, I won me some fans. And their the loudest and greatest fans in the world.
Ben: That they certainly are. And they were in fine voice at the show last month, and you faced G-Man again, along with Lord Graham Thomas and Angelos in the four way eliminator for the BWP Catchweight Championship. In what is probably the finest moment in your career – you became the first ever BWP Catchweight Champion. Describe how it felt when you became champion.
Seb: Incredible, after being nearly beaten earlier that night by Derek Evans in a hard faught contest I didn’t think I would even stand a chance in the final. Derek Evans exposed a weakness in my armour and I knew someone as experienced as LGT would pick that apart even more. Some would call it luck and some would say that the best man won. All I know is that now I am the champ, I will not lose this belt without a fight.
Ben: Yes you most certainly won’t! But that has shown a great side to you, you are is a fighting champion, already saying that you’d like to face your good friends G-Man and Metal one on one with the belt on the line. Who else on the roster would you like to face?
Seb: I wouldn’t mind facing anyone on the roster, none of these guys would be on the roster if they werent good enough. But this warning goes to friend and foe alike, once that belt has rung I am a single minded competitor untill the end.
Ben: Finally, we will do One Word Answers! Tell me the first word that comes into your head for these members of the locker room, as well as the 3 final questions (you can use more than one word for this).

Ben: Final 3 questions. In the BWP locker room, who is the one person you would like to face in a match that you haven’t yet?
Seb: El Destello.
Ben: Who is your least favourite member of the BWP locker room?
Seb: El Destello.
Ben: And who is the longest in the showers?
Seb: The G-Man.
Ben: Finally, anything you wish to say to your adoring fans?
Seb: Of course. keep being awesome and I will do my best to delight your senses.
Ben: Thanks for that Seb! Best of luck in your next championship defence!
