Welcome to Gaia! ::

By: Paul Poison

We here at PAW.com always bring the fans just what they look for: action, attitude, & info. In the past few months an in-ring force has been bringing the first two of these things in spades. Rather new to the major leagues of sports entertainment, he has already managed to gather a decent fan following (despite his nefarious actions & ill will), & has captured the title of first ever Crimson Champion. At the recent pay-per-view, Christmas Chaos, PAW.com caught up with this force, for an all inclusive, up close and personal look at man underneath the paint - Krymzon Ghost.

Paul Poison: To begin, seeing as how this is your first interview with PAW.com, welcome.

Krymzon Ghost: Thanks. Its a true honor to be here.

PP: If you don't mind, I'd like to get right down into the flesh of this interview. Many people... fans & talent alike... seem to not only question your in-ring abilities, but the longevity of the Krymzon Ghost character itself. How does this effect you?

KG: It doesn't. I knew coming here, that I'd have something to prove. As far as pro wrestling goes, I'm a relatively new face, & with that comes doubt. No question. But, when a prestigous, invitation only federation like PAW takes a youngblood like me under their wings... expectations to be taken seriously would be foolish. This is after all Professional Alumni Wrestling.

I actually had a bit of problem over this when I first got the invite. I went to Chris [Jericho] about it. I couldn't grasp how a rookie such as myself could make it into a place reserved for living legends & multiple crown champions. He put it in perspective for me... & gave me a bit of an ego boost as well. He, as well as the rest of the people here, made me feel welcome. That's when I knew I'd found a home.

PP: I've been confronted with a few people who share the puzzlement in this next question... back here, in the real world, you seem to be a rather decent... & sometimes reserved, if not outright shy... person. How does the shift to a character like Krymzon go?

KG: Business is as business goes. Its just that, a character. What I do out there defines Krymzon Ghost. What I do everywhere else, defines me. I got used to that attitude in the indies, just because I did alot of jobbing. You get really fed up with constantly losing & being the b***h if you retain the kind of headspace that lets you believe what you do out there defines your actual worth. Thats part of why I adopted the make-up, it helps with the seperation. Infact, I don't think I've wrestled without make-up or mask since my second or third match... way back in my backyard days.

PP: What about this heated DOA/Forsaken/Unholy Alliance thing going on?

KG: *sly grin from the champ* I'm keeping my lips sealed on this one. Its going to be interesting... & we're going to blow alot of non-believers out of the water with it.

As far as the others wrestlers involved go... awesome people, exceptional talent. None like them in the world. Thats why it was such an honor to come here.

PP: How has it been working with Jinx?

KG: Have you seen us in the ring? Its like a well oiled machine. The dynamics between us are great. I hope to be able to ride DOA until the wheels fall off.

PP: One last question... Goals? Aspirations? Dream matches? Where are you taking this? Where do you see yourself going next?

KG: As anybody in this business will tell you, I'd love to get some heavy metal around my waste. I mean... *looks down at the Crimson Championship belt* ...I love this title. It means the world to me, & its exactly where I wanted to go with my career... but, nobody gets into the books without somesort of world or heavyweight belt around their waist.

As far as where I'm going next? The annals of history, my friend. The annals of history.
