Master Blogger: Welcome to the very first edition of the Columnist's Corner and I am your host with the most, The Master Blogger. My very first guest, is a man who needs no introduction, a man who is greater than great. Some of you refer to this man as The Weasel but I refer to him as the Manager Of Champions, he is the Vice President of New Brand Wrestling, Louis Hendrickson. Welcome to the Columnist's Corner, Manager of Champions.
Louis Hendrickson: No problem.
Master Blogger: My first question is can you tell some of the readers just how you broke into the business.
Louis Hendrickson: I broke in back in 1999 at Chalmer's as the clean-up crew and tear down crew security thanks to Caveman Broda the legend, and he set up a meeting with Mr. R.C.W.
Master Blogger: How would you compare New Brand Wrestling to other promotions?
Louis Hendrickson: New Brand Wrestling is okay with guys like Diamond and Bobby Collins, Mike Mission, Buddy Wiser and other guys. Veterans work the shows. The difference is CWE is way more serious and the set up is very good and professional looking not like N.B.W. I'm waiting for R.C.W. to make their return to the business. They will show New Brand Wrestling how to do it and completely embarrass them without even trying. The new R.C.W. will be #1 in no time at all. The strobe lights and set up will be awesome and the crew will too. I have a surprise for everyone very soon. PCW is okay they have some awesome guys too like The Outlaw Adam Knight. WFX is Jeff Dyck's baby and Mike Davidson's.
Master Blogger: I was at the last show, and I along with many fans could not believe the then-GM Cory Diamond was stripped of his General Manager duties. Talk about how he was removed as GM.
Louis Hendrickson: It was a conflict of intrest. He was wrestling and held back General Manager duties. We worked that angle together. He is better as a wrestler.
Master Blogger: On March 5th, River City Wrestling is going to make its big comeback at the Salvation Army Centre on Logan Avenue. What are your thoughts of RCW re-opening its doors?
Louis Hendrickson: They are going to kick some butt and become #1 in no time. River City Wrestling really is the heart and soul of local wrestling. We used to have so much fun with our shows and Wayne Stanton is the greatest promoter in town and I'm not saying this to kiss his butt but it is true. The first show on March 5th is giving back to the neighborhood. Then on March 19th they will embarass New Brand Wrestling and Canadian Classic Wrestling. Next question.
Master Blogger: When people think of great managers in wrestling, they think of Bobby Collins, they think of Dave Levinsky, they think of Lynn Adams, Shalamar Santana, The Baroness and many others, but most of all they think of you because you provided that entertainment that brought the fans to you so my question is when someone comes up to you and says you are the greatest manager of all time, what does that mean to you looking back on your career?
Louis Hendrickson: I feel very honored and respected to be in the same calibre as the others. I have a suprise very soon so stay tuned. Lynn Adams is a very good friend and I am asking to get her back but with R.C.W.
Master Blogger: I will definitly stay tuned. Now for my next question, if I could take a look at the list of people you have managed in your time and I am not going to name all of them but just a few from the likes of Madman Muir who by the way has signed with R.C.W., Silverstreak 2000, Plumber Lou Dooley who would later become Carver Gleason, Ox Anderson who became DOOM in SPW, Paul Arcidi, Dirty Doug Irwin and Jay Lanza just to name a few so my question is who were you the proudest to say I managed this person out of all the guys you managed in your time in RCW, who was the guy or guys you can look back and say I did the best stuff with him we had some great times together?
Louis Hendrickson: All of them but truthfully, Ox and Madman Muir were the greatest times of all and Carver Gleason. I would manage the crappiest guys and make them shine. Next question.
Master Blogger: Any final comments to all the great wrestling fans?
Louis Hendrickson: Stay tuned for a special serious announcement from me soon. Stay tuned to the old N.B.W. hotline soon. Number is 786-5000 ext. #1667. I love the wrestling fans and go out and support R.C.W. at all their shows. I will be there March 5th in the audience.
Master Blogger: Louis, it has been a pleasure talking to you for blogspot.com. Thank you for your time.
Louis Hendrickson: Anytime.
That is it for this edition of the Columnist's Corner . In my next edition, I will be talking to River City Wrestling star and current N.B.W. tag team champion, The Great Pepito.
