YouTube is a much easier source, if not as thorough, for shoot interviews than tape traders who drive to Kentucky to get busted by Chris Hansen and Dateline NBC. Here's some cool shit I found:
Scott Hall Shoot Interview Part One
Part Two
Part Three
Part Four
Th Scott Hall interview is recent, as the last part of the fourth video is about Benoit's murder-suicide. The total runtime of the these clips is just over 30 minutes, so I don't know if this is the full interview. There are some great stories about his nWo days on this and that's mainly what it focuses on. Considering the substance abuse issues that Hall went through which were probably a result of working in the wrestling business, he is very well-adjusted and not bitter or resentful in the least.
Trailer forKevin Nash's RF interview. Interesting bits, but just pieces of stories. Longer audio interview with Nash about payoffs and leaving the WWF in 96. If you're interested, the full audio clip can be found here. This covers the nWo formation and the stuff after.
Ahmed Johnson speaks english! Apparently Road Warrior Animal accused Ahmed of stealing a set of the spiked shoulder pads. Ahmed denies it and calls Animal a bitch. Ahmed Johnson speaks more english! He talks about abuse he suffered from his father, comparing one beating to that of the Passion of the Christ. (Notice the odd assortment of tags for this video.) I expected "YUH GUN DUN"-type speaking, but when having a casual conversation, Johnson is shockingly understandable.
The Honky Tonk Man is bitter. It's audio only and I didn't finish this one. He's washed up, old and stupid. Why would Randy Savage have to get Viagra from Hulk Hogan? It's a legal drug, available by prescription. Savage lives in Florida, you can get a prescription for anything in that state.
RVD loves weed. Audio only. Even when I was a stoner, I hated phrases like "the truth about marijuana" in reference to how marijuana is a safe alternative to alcohol and less deadly than cigarettes.
One of the things I hate about most shoot interviews is the shitty, shitty quality of the video. Fortunately, all of these videos are good quality. Most of the related videos in the side bar are other clips, but they're the shitty, shitty quality kind.
