EWA Prez
From your time running the EWA, what was the standout moment of it's tenure?
I'm not sure about the best moment, I mean, there are some big candidates, like Davie trashing the IWA Title live on EWA TV, Tormentor and Davie J on PPV, Brock winning the title, Angle, Icon and SFJ all jumping ship, and even Fuba throwing apples at Davie J! It's hard to decide on just one.
What was your best PPV?
Well, it would have to be 'For Glory And Honour'. Tormentor versus Davie J, what a night that was!
Do any of the wrestlers you have worked with actually think they are the wrestler or are they level headed?
Hmm, if you have ever spoken to Hogan, you'll know there's a screw loose somewhere! And Kurt Angle certainly has a life-like ego to match the real guy! But seriously, most of the wrestlers have a part of their controllers in them, so you can usually see some similarities.
Now factions. Rate the following in order of how good you think they have been. Corporation(EWA), nWo(EIWF), DOD(EIWF), CREW(EIWF/ICW), NMWO(EIWF), DOD(IWA), Corporation(IWA).
CREW, Corporation(EWA), Corporation(IWA), NMWO, nWo, DOD(IWA), DOD(EIWF).
Who do you think has been the best tag teams around and why?
Probably Davie & Eddie, where haven't they won tag titles?
(funny enough, we never won the EWA tag titles ha ha)
*Was there anyone who you found was not a team player in the EWA and was only interested in themselves?
A while back a guy called Christian Jakk was like that, but look how far he went in the EWA. Suicide was also a bad apple, hence him going back to the EIWF when he didn't get his way! Apart from that, there hasn't been anyone like that at all; I was quite lucky with the EWA! Well, Jarrett was a bit like that, but he wasn't too bad!
(Not about the CREW but we do like any put down about Suicide.)

SFJ
The EWA has been described as a place for EIWF has beens to go too (Hogan, Davie and Kurt) and for EIWF mid carders (icon), what do you say to that?
A place for has beens? Hell, the EIWF is a place for nobodys nowadays. Yeah, why watch has beens like Hogan and Davie when you can watch Darklight and Suicide. What a joke! The current EIWF completely renovates the piss break, it's like watching route canal work, only more painful and agonizing. Guys like Hogan and Davie made the EIWF and hell if it weren't for them,
guys like Dynamite Darren might not even have a career in the EIWF.
Talking of retirering, Davie J has announced his retirement, do you have any comments on that?
Well with all due respect, the man couldn't have chosen a better time to retire. Davie J has lived the career that very few get to live. He has left an unforgettable legacy on this business as well as the EIWF, something that SFJ hopes he can do.
Who is the best wrestler you have worked with?
Probably Davie J or Hogan
And who would you like to work with?
If he gets the chance, probably Hogan or Davie once more, just to relive the historical moments. And for newer tastes, Icon and Tormentor.

Tormenter/EWF Prez interview
Dark Rider was a hard working individual, he was insulted by Davie J and then you told him where to go if he didnt like it. Surely this is not the way to act when you are trying to attract new wrestlers.
Tormentor: You know... you're starting to sound red, and by that I don't mean you like Ketchup on your
burger. This is a game of business, and business is everything. Davie J is a mean bastard if you let him get to you... and he will get to you, unless you have the eye of the tiger like me. Davie intimidates his opponents, he belittles them until they litrally
start to show weakness and then actually believe themselves that they're gonna lose... Take a look at
Dark Riders promo's, he let Davie's words get to him... he let himself get caught in the whirlwind. The daft ass let Davie get to him and ended up losing, and then he has the nerve to say the Man, the Myth and Legend screwed him, well Dark Rider can screw himself on my middle finger, cause Rider, it's in the air and I'm letting it linger in the air. People read the contract, saw the rules and still signed away... If they couldn't live up to the good standards the EWF runs itself on, the standards that
I set in wrestling, then they can take a hike... cause I hear the WMW's looking for worthless talent, if you can't cut it in the EWF, you don't belong here. Aside from Dark Rider, Scott Steiner and and HBK joined, the Man, the Myth and the Legend doesn't have a problem with them, they're new just like Rider was... they're doing well. It just goes to show, Dark Rider tried jumping into the big league thinking he'd start at the top, well it ain't like that when you're in my business bucco. What I offer is good ol' fashioned wrestling, that takes everything you got to win... If you wanna go walking around like a pansy
racing on bike's and cars thinking you belong in the Fast and the Furious, get outta my sight.
I normally ask for people to rate the current champions in the fed. As there are no champions in
your fed I would like you to tell us about each of your employees, there strengths and weaknesses.
Now many people hate the fact that he's Hollywood, but lets face it... Hulkmania is a pile of trash.
Hollywood is the man, the next EWF Champion as far as I'm concerned, Hollywood has the experience, has the power and is the next MAN after myself.
Davie J, what can I say, the biggest sad sac in the EWF, but the biggest superstar we're seeing at the
moment, a great opponent and a big name, trully at his prime at the moment.
If you could work with anyone who would it be?
In the EWF... just by looking once, Davie J, Hollywood Hogan, Icon and HBK.
Who is the best that you have come across in wrestling?
Tormentor: There have been many in my wrestling career, the Pyromaniacs would be the first, Lawrnz, The Brock and Davie J are the main ones though

Easy E Interview after the ICW had closed down
JC: Back then the EIWF was the number 1 place around and many who tried to compete with the fed had failed, but the ICW was the real first fed to actually give the EIWF some real competition.
PE: Thats right, the ICW was the first real competition that the EIWF got. Everyone else it had crashed, but the ICW posed a threat. It was simple, i took the EIWF's biggest star Davie J. By doing that i attracted other EIWF stars. I mean people in the EIWF took notice, if Davie J was in the ICW then it must of been good so they would join. By signing Davie it led to me signing Badd Dogg, L double E, Eddie D, Hollywood Hogan, Revolution, Undertaker, Slash and some others.
JC: Who was the best wrestler you had?
PE: (laughs) your putting me on the spot now, hmmmmmmm........its gotta be a tie between Slash and Davie J. Everyone already knew Davie was a superstar and what he was capable of. But Slash was almost an unknown and was given the ball, and boy did he run with it. he just got better and better.
JC: Best ICW PPV?
PE: Let me think, There was Flames in Hell, Battlezone, Justification, St Valetines Massacre but i didnt write that one, and there was Final Countdown. Its a hard one. Flames in Hell will always be special because it was the first one. But Justification has to stick out because it was when i had a cross over with the EIWF and the CREW turned up. Eddie, Davie and Hogan were all on hand and Davie won the title back from Slash. We had the Good Guys in action, so that PPV sticks out the most, also the poster that went with that PPV i got a lot of heat for. But as they say, any publicity is good publicity

Suicide the Davie J wannabe
Who would you like to work with if you could choose anyone?
Probably Davie J, the Icon. I would have chosen Wishmaster but I already teamed with him. Davie J is a EIWF legend. I would love to accomplish here what he has.

Scott Douglass
At FOF you was involved in one of the greatest matches the Eiwf has ever seen. Has that match made you respect Jeff Jarrett more for the champion he is?
Jeff is a great champion. He is one of the best ever. After Fortress of Fear I learned just how good he really is. Jeff I learned alot about your wrestling ability at FOF. I think that match was the best I have ever been apart of. And I hope everyone enjoyed it as well.
Who do you think are the top wrestlers in the Eiwf(best roleplayers)
I would have to say..... Super Fire Jr. and Davie J. They are the best at what they do. I have battled with Davie and admired SFJ for a long time. I also think that I am becoming a major player here as well.
What do you think of the other current champions?
Jeff Jarrett- Great U.S. Champion. After FOF he is the best ever
Good Guys- The best tag team ever. They are the best in the ranks of the tag teams everywhere

EIWF Owner/Prez
MOSS- Firstly Who do you think are the Best & Worst Workers in the EIWF, Today?
PREZ- well that is a tough question, but the guys, who in my eyes put in the time and effort are Davie J, Hollywood Hogan, Super Fire Jr, Kurt Angle, and alot of the new guys are working hard, like Devilchild, Hunty Boy to name a Few!
But I feel there are alot of establised names that are quite lazy in their approach to the EIWF, like Metyl, Slash, Big Poppa, Eddie D & the Rock, to name a Few, but all these guys are brand names, and the EIWF needs them, but the EIWF also needs them to put in the time to keep the EIWF upthere in the top lot of Federations! We have seen what can happen when Wrestlers dont put in the Time, look what happened to the EIWO, The ICW, you need commitment from everyone involved!
MOSS- Right, lets get back to the EIWF, and your opinion of each Current Title Holder in the EIWF?
PREZ- Ok, World Champ, we have Davie J, the EIWF's Franchise, A guy, who I have worked side by side with to make the EIWF what it is, you could say, I Made Davie J, or that Davie J made the EIWF, but whatever you say, the EIWF needs Davie J, and Davie J needs the EIWF!, and Does he deserve to be a 5 Time World Champ!, simply, Yes He does!, I dont know anyone in the EIWF, who put in as much Time & Commitment into making the EIWF a Top Company that Davie J did in those early days, and he works with the Angles, the Storys, he makes my life easy, and he's a Top Draw Peformer!, so in my eyes, he is a Great World Champ!
The Tag Champs, are Davie J & Eddie D, do they deserve the Title, who know's, The Tag team division in the EIWF barely exists, so they are not fighting champions, so we'll leave that there!
MOSS- ok, thats answered that!, Ok, we know you Fired Davie J back at Hotter than Hell, last August, but he returned at Hell on Earth in October, what was all that about, and do you think the EIWF would be better without Davie J?
PREZ- why did I fire Davie, well I didnt, Me and Davie sat down, and he wanted some time out, I mean he had been working solid as a Main Eventer for nearly a year, and he wanted a Break, I mean Hogan had a break, and so did Eddie, and we had been pushing the CREW down everyones throats for along time, so Davie decided he wanted a Break as well!..so we decided the best way to do that, was to give the image that I fired Davie J, the Angle being, that he was holding the EIWF, and New Talent Back, the New Talent being at the time, Super Fire Jr!..
But after a while, Davie started working independantly for the ICW!, I saw this, and called Davie, and asked him about a return to the EIWF, he was ready to comeback, and so he did,..so in asking would the EIWF be a better place without Davie, I dont know, cos I think the EIWF will never lose Davie J, he may leave, but he would probably want to comeback again, As Davie has been apart of the EIWF for so long, I dont think he can ever really Leave!!!,so Basicly, the EIWF would not be better off without Davie, it would just be alot more boring!
MOSS- since being incharge, what has been your most memorable Moment in the EIWF's History!!!
PREZ- now your really asking me something, I dont know if I can pinpoint one moment, but I'd say I will never forget Evil Intentions from February last year, when Davie J, the world Champ at the time, Layed down for Hollywood Hogan, and the CREW was back again!
MOSS- Now you have mentioned Davie J alot, but what about Hollywood Hogan?
PREZ- I dont think I need to say anything about Hollywood Hogan, I dont think anyone who has had a match with him, or fueded with him, can deny he is the Man!, if you talk to anyone, it dosent get any better than Main Eventing against Hollywood Hogan at a PPV!!, he is a True Legend!!!

Easy E now in charge of the EIWF
(obviously has a chip on his shoulder too)
MOSS-When you was in charge of the ICW you was accused of making the mistake of pushing the old stars. You have already cleared out Eddie Dand Ric Flair, is there more 'older' generation stars set to leave or can we expect to see Davie J, Hogan or Metyl again?
EAZY- firstly i hate the phrase 'old stars', i like to call them established talent, and i can look back at my time incharge of the ICW, and say signing Davie J was a good move, cos back then Davie J was the most bankable star in the Biz, so no it wasnt a mistake, however if you ask me today would i sign Davie J, i would say No..Davie J has had his day, signing him now would be a huge mistake, he is a dangerous force in the locker room, and i believe the EIWF is heading back to the top without him, the days of the bullyboy tactics of the CREW are gone, the EIWF has moved on, thats why I got rid of Eddie D as soon as i could, im looking to the future unlike the EWA & the IWA, the EIWF has a good pool of talent, and were building for a brighter CREW free future...
MOSS- so lets get back to positives, what have been some of your most memorable moments in wrestling so far?
EAZY- good question, and a tough one..now firstly I hate saying that some of my favorite moments are EIWF Moments, now I know back in 2000 I was running neck and neck with the EIWF, but the EIWF has given the wrestling world some great moments, and I remember the night at Evil intentions back in 2000, when the CREW got back together, and Davie J layed down for Hollywood Hogan, What a Moment that was!!, and I have to say on a personal note I really enjoyed ICW's Justification PPV, where Hollywood Hogan helped Davie J win the World Title from Slash, I hold that moment very dear to my heart...but Moss, I could talk about great moments all night....but I want to say, between now and the end of the year, I aim to give all the fans more memorable moments than they can handle..
MOSS- Ok, lets talk about Workers, who has been the best person who you have worked with in your time?
EAZY- tough one again Moss, but I have to say, when I was running ICW, Davie J was a joy to work with, he brought so much to the table, he made my job easy!, but let me say this, there are 2 Davie J's, the one who worked for me in the ICW, was a hungry Athlete, with lots of energy and idea's, but the Davie J who is parading around now, is an Title driven egomaniac, someone I would not wish to work with at all!...but so far here in the EIWF I have enjoyed working with everyone so far, creating new fueds and hopefully delivering exicting matches, and I hope that we continue to create interesting stories for the fans in the future, there are some great workers here in the EIWF, and at the moment all of them seem very keen to help me, get the EIWF back to Number 1..
MOSS- so true..well were running out of time, so finally what do you think of the IWA & EWA'a product?
EAZY- OH, dont get me started on this one......The IWA I have watched briefly, I get sent tapes all the time, so i can keep up with the competition, but to be honest if Davie J leaves the IWA, I dont see the IWA lasting, there is no depth of talent there at all.....as for the EWA, there is more structure there, but they dont have Eazy E, what more can I say..
(yep he was right on that one, I dumped the belt on an EWA show and the IWA went down the pan)
