Will you ever sign a JAKKS LEGEND Contract?
I hope so. I would hate to think I missed my window to have an action figure.
What do you say about Maven getting fired?
I guess that's the business. I wouldn't be surprised to see him back. He's talented.
Will you ever make a shoot Interview on RF Video Like Maven?
I don't know if I'll ever do a shoot interview. I didn't know Maven did one. Did he say anything about
me? I'm not much for airing dirty laundry unless some serious good can come of it...
What do you say about Christian(Cage) winning World Title?
I never flip the channel when Christian is on, so I'm all for him winning anything and everything.
Any plans for a Tough Enough Reunion?
Yes, at my house next week. No, seriously, I doubt it. There aren't many of us left that roll around Stamford anymore as anything but tourists.
Are you married at the current time or plan to be someday?
I'm not married now. I'm not against it, but I'm not in any rush. And no one's pressuring me (and they better not).
Do you plan to have children?
I think I'll have a couple kids some day. Not too many, though. Just enough to repopulate. If I want more than that, there are plenty of kids already out
there that need a home.
Do you have a My Space account?
Yes. http://www.myspace.com/chrisnowinski
Was that you on the TV Game Show Cash Cab?
No. What the hell is Cash Cab?

what is your opinion on tna wrestling?
To be perfectly honest, I haven't seen a lot of TNA. Right now I'm juggling three careers, and it's spreading me a bit thin. But I hear good things, and
hope my old friends from the WWE are having success there.
i hope to one day be a member of the wwe family and i actually want to get ribbed'my question is this'did you ever get
ribbed and if you did what was the worst one?
Good luck getting in the family. Due to my lack of memories for the period of 2002-2003, I can't think of a good 'getting ribbed' story. However, I once ribbed
myself good.
As you may know, my nose was demolished in the 2003 Royal Rumble. If you've seen the hit, it looked like I should've died. When I went backstage after the match, people sought me out to see if I was ok, including the McMahon's. The outpouring of sympathy was incredible. The injury was strange, however. I didn't break my nose, but I tore the cartilage in 2 places. Therefore, I didn't bleed, and it didn't hurt. I thought I was fine. The next day I woke up and my nose was only a tiny bit swollen. But people had expectations, and I had to deliver. So to have a little fun with people, I decided to show up to Monday Night RAW a little early. I made sure no one saw me on my way in, and went straight to make-up, where I asked Jan to make it look like I broke my nose. I planned on wearing the make-up for an hour or so and then wiping it off and having a laugh. The problem I didn't expect was that when wrestlers and management started streaming in, they were so impressed that I was not selling the injury and willing to wrestle that night that I could tell they were earning a new found respect for me.
Vince McMahon gave me the simultaneous hand shake back pat. Pat Patterson pulled me aside to complement me.
Victoria ran down the hallway to hug me. Even Shane McMahon was treating me more like one of the boys. At
this point, I realized that if they found out I was ribbing them, I would lose every point I'd earned. I confided in Al Snow, and he said, "That make-up comes
off, and they'll run you out of here on a rail."
So I ended up getting the makeup secretly touched up before my match on Heat. I was scared to death I'd sweat it off. Jim Ross, thinking it was real, couldn't
stop gushing on the air about how tough I was to wrestle that night. After my match, I ran back to make-up to get it touched up again. I ended up fake
showering (not the face) and making a run for it as soon as I could.
I don't think anyone found out about it. The irony is that the injury I mocked was far worse than I thought and I ended up needing reconstructive surgery. Such is
life.
So becuase of the nature of you injury, does that mean like DROZ, that you are on WWE payroll for life? (that's weird,
ignore it if you want!)
I don't know Droz's situation, but I am certainly not on the payroll for life. I think I am still there because I perform my current role well.
would you enjoy working with William Regal again?
Absolutely. He was a great partner, a great teacher, and a ton of fun.
What are the odds that you become General Manager of Raw? That'd make me extremely happy. I've been a fan of yours since
Tough Enough! Chris Harvard = RATINGS!
Thanks. I'd say the odds are strong to quite strong. Actually, I have no idea. But yes, I think I could do a lot with that role, and people would tune in.
You said you tore your septum at the 2003 Royal Rumble the worst one? When Rey and
Edge did their high spots off the turnbuckle, I noticed that when Edge landed he slid across your face. Was that what did it? My
friends and I consider that to be in our top ten "Holy S---!" moments. You sure made ALOT of memorable moments during your TV career. We miss the hell
outta ya!
Please see #2. Had Edge not adjusted in mid-air, he could have killed me. Don't try that spot at home.
Do you still watch WWE today?
Yes. Always. I have Tivo.
Do you like HBK as a heel or a face?
I like HBK as a face, because the crowd reacts to him so strongly. He's earned that respect, and he still
brings an energy that few have ever had that makes you want to see him win.
Which WM match was your favourite?
I'm terrible at these, because I have the memory of a goldfish for such things. That being said, in terms of
seeing it live, I'll never forget Rock-Hogan in Toronto. I could call it a "favorite" because I had a physical reaction, with my adrenaline running the
whole time due to the energy of those 70,000 fans.
If you could have a manager who would it be?
Christopher Nowinski. He'd be the best.
Who did you get along with in the WWE Locker Room?
Most everybody. I rode with Christian and Lance Storm at the end, but they'd probably deny it.
