WWE Daily

I have been watching wrestling for 20 years, and it’s pretty easy to spot which wrestlers have the stuff to make it, and which are only on the mat thanks to gimmicks. Chris Masters is one of those wrestlers who has the talent and the build to be in wrestling for a long, long time. I recently had the chance to ask Chris a few questions. Chris was recently let go from the WWE due to violations in the Wellness policy. He was gracious enough to take a few minutes out of his extremely busy schedule in order to let his fans know how he’s doing, and what his immediate plans are!

So Chris, how’s married life treating you so far?

Not legally married, but its great haha

Lots of wrestling fans want to see behind the scenes. Can you give the fans a little insight as to how much you’re on the road when you’re a professional wrestler?

Man, we travel/wrestle 4days out of the week w/ 3 days off..gets a bit hard…overseas tours can be up to 2 weeks

I’ve read that your wrestling heroes were Shawn Michaels and Ric Flair – what was it like being able to get in the ring with them?

Definitely one of my best accomplishments!! Dreams do come true I got to wrestle my childhood heroes and not many get to do that…its great!

Your in-ring character, Chris Masters, was very serious, and yet other pictures I’ve seen of you show a guy who likes to goof off – which is the real Chris Mordetzky?

Definately a bit of both, but I don’t like taking myself too seriously….I do like to make an ass out of myself for a laugh

Do you believe that it would benefit the wrestling world if there were more large corporations out there televising wrestling?

I definitely think it would benefit the wrestlers!

Do you see yourself in wrestling in ten years?

Not sure what the future hold, but I still have passion for it and it’s not something I’m going to give up on but at the same time I’m keeping an open mind!!

How’s your new kitty BoBo doing?

Haha she’s putting on a pound /day…I put her on my diet ;)..nah she’s great!!

Do you feel that policies, like the Wellness Policy, are helpful to athletes, or do you feel that it’s not a perfect system yet?

It’s definitely helpful for long-term health of athletes, but there could be tweaks made to make it better

Can you let your fans know what your plans for the immediate future are?

Ah, just working on getting my elbow better, indy bookings are def in the works…some autograph signings and the rest is top secret for now ;)haha

I notice that you’ve been doing a lot of interviews lately – is there any question that you haven’t been asked that you wish you would have? What would the answer to that question be?

That’s a hard one…I’m not really sure there has been SO SO many questions from everyone…from goofy to real and I think most have been covered for now

I’d like to thank you very much for taking the time for this interview, Chris. Is there anything else that you’d like your fans to know?

Just appreciate all the support and that “IT”S ALL GOOD”!!!

Chris
