 One
of the most controvercial superstars in wrestling today, both for his straight
shooting style, and for his revelations against his time in WWE, Ron 'The
Truth' Killings certainally lives up to his name.
The first ever black NWA Champ, Ron has been missing from TNA broadcasts
recently, and now we know why. Now debuting an album
RON KILLINGS
-- Ron was a wrestling fan back in the days of Dusty
Rhodes and Magnum TA but he "grew out of it."
-- He grew out of it because he got more into music and started to meet rappers
and started dancing for concerts and such.
-- He was 25. Jack Crocket took a liking to him and helped him get in. He
wanted him to mix music and wrestling so he tried it and loved it.
-- Many Fernandez trained him.
-- He worked a lot of indies throughout New Jersey as well as North and South
Carolina before he ended up in NWA Wildside.
-- He was the NWA Wildside TV champion and Rick Michaels, who now does a
lot of the costume designs for wrestlers, persuaded him to send a tape in
to the WWE. The Road Dog saw him work and persuaded them to bring him in.
-- He owns the name K-Krush. The WWE found that out and instantly decided
they didn't want him to have ownership of his gimmick so they made him pick
a new name. Road Dogg suggested K-Kwick and Ron immediately thought of Eddie
Murphy from Harlem Knights and he said it was cool and went with it.
-- He says that the Hardcore title run is in the books but he doesn't even
count it as a real title because it was so quick and no build.
-- He lost respect for WWE creative after Road Dogg got fired because they
couldn't find something for him to do.
-- He pitched ideas to creative. He was going to work with Scotty Too Hotty
but that never came about. Guys like Chris Jericho and Matt Hardy went to
bat for him by pitching ideas but they didn't go for any of them. He was
put on the sidelines and then released.
-- He left the WWE on good terms with no heat.
-- Everything at WWE was great. He said it was a great experience. He would
have liked to have wrestled Austin and The Rock.
-- Jeff Jarrett called him to come to TNA. He liked the idea because Vince
had monopolized the business.
-- Jeff Jarrett came up with "The Truth." He didn't mind the name change
because he feels that no matter if they call him K-Kwick, The Truth, or whatever
else they come up with, he still falls back upon K-Krush.
-- A lot of the racial claims he made about the WWE during his initial "Truth"
was the truth.
-- He feels a little unsure about all the newly released WWE guys coming
to TNA and being put in the main event slot. He says that when TNA started,
the guys that had immediate photo or name recognition would obviously be
the ones to sell the show. He feels that he was built up in TNA along with
a lot of other guys and when they are taken off the show for guys that are
fresh from the WWE.
-- Vince Russo kayfabes the workers so much that they don't get told who
they are working with until the night of the show.
-- He doesn't know what to say about losing the belt to Jarrett because he
was under the impression that they would feud for longer than they did. He
said they did have two great matches, though.
-- Back to the "surprises" with former WWE superstars. "You dance with who
you came to the show with," he said. He says that the guys that worked hard
from the start that just get faded out of the picture is like, in his words,
"f*ck that."
-- He is very happy with TNA but he is trying to find a place to fit in the
picture.
-- He wants to bring Nelson "Mabel" Knight back.
-- If the WWE came to his door, he'd consider it. He says it depends on money.
-- Music is a big part of his life. Invincible is his album and it's under
the artist name K-Krush.
Finally, we have Word Associations:
-- Hear Ron's views on people like Vince McMahon, B. G. "Road Dog" James,
D'Lo Brown, Trinity, Jerry Jarrett, and a funny response to Jim Ross!
