A few months back, we requested an exclusive Q&A with Amazing Red, and he was kind enough to let us send him some questions. Below you can check out all of the questions, and his answers.
How would you feel if your children considered or pursued a career in professional wrestling?
I’ll be cool with it
How do you feel about the way TNA debuted Crimson – aka Tommy Mercer – as your younger brother?
I think it was awesome!! just didnt like what happened after =[
Do you feel that the storyline could have gone in a more interesting direction that involved you two interacting more?
Hell yea, we had so many cool ideas, funny ones too
Would you have liked to do a storyline with your real-life cousin Rosita – aka Thea Trinidad?
also, f yea… i thought eventually it was gonna happen, would of been awesome
Who would you say is hotter, you or Crimson?
lol, um…
What made you want to start up HOG?
I always wanted to give back to the ppl, like what Mikey Whipwreck did for me and my cousins, being my size i never wouldve dream making it to where i made it to, i owe Mikey & my fam Eddie (Chris Divine) alot
How did you start HOG? Could you give us more information on it so we could dedicate a section to the website to it?
well, it was alot of thinking and frustration but we finally did it, we just wanted a place to show ppl that u dont have to be 6’4 or 300 pounds to become a professional wrestler.. it matters on your heart and passion for this business, if u want to do it and think like a champion, it’ll happen and come true
How do you feel about being one half of the ICW tag team champions with Danny Demanto, a man that you’ve literally been to Hell and back with?
I dont care about that place anymore or the whole story, sorry… ICW is no more!!!
Do you design your own ring gear?
sometimes, i like doing drawings in all my books and stuff, some r bizarre though lol
Do you think being 5’4 is too short to be a pro wrestler?
no, Rey Misterio is 5’3 i think
What do you think about the littler guys – the guys that are about 150lbs and are about 5’6 and under – in wrestling?
i think we’re under rated in the fact that we’re small doesnt mean that we should be ignored, thats y i love Misterio, Eddie Guerrero, Shawn, & Bret Hart for changing the landscape of thins in pro wrestling, anything is possible now
Do you think putting school on hold to pursue a career in pro wrestling is a good move?
eh… not really, i mean i did it, but then i had to come back and finish school & i did but i wish i wouldve finish school 1st… Everybody remember, School 1st ok…
