Melissa has finally gotten back to us with the answers for our interview with us, and it’s a really awesome read, so be sure to check it out! Huge thanks goes out to all the fans who sent in their questions, and an even bigger thanks to Melissa herself for taking time out of her busy schedule to answer these!
#1 Who was your inspiration to become a womens wrestler? (and a brilliant one at that!).
My Dad (Doug Anderson) was my first inspriation. I grew up watching him and my uncle (Bill Anderson) wrestle and attending live events together. I always enjoyed the challenge and athleticism of the in ring work. However, growing up I also loved the showman ship and glamor of Sherry Martel. Very addicting!
#2 Is there any wrestlers that you would like to work with that you haven’t yet?
Actually, I’ve been wanting to work with Ayumi for a while now. I wrestled on the same shows with her in Japan a while back and was secretly hoping that I would finally get a match with her. Hopefully one day!
#3 As far as training goes, what does it consist of for someone that’s completely fresh? I feel you’re the best person to ask, being that you have extensive training from both Japan and the United States. From what I gathered (which is not much), dojos in Japan are strict and efficient, but I’m searching for the details—the nitty-gritty, so to speak. I’m doing research for one of my stories and any information will be greatly appreciated.
When I was there months at a time, we lived in a dorm room on the second floor of the dojo. When your new, part of the duties are maintenance of the ring and facility inside and out. It also included taking care of the talent during shows like transporting their
lugguage, errands, and even cooking for them after training. That’s just a little bit right there.
