The MiC: How did you get into pro wrestling?

Harry Acropolis: I went to all the indy shows and i said to myself thats what i want to do. i found out i could go to school to be a wrestler. I trained at the iwf center in west paterson, nj

The MiC: What was your training like?

Harry Acropolis: training wasn't easy. i learned fast but it was hard to keep your spot. i constantly put pressure on myself to be in the top of my class. the pressure i put on myself was harder than the actual training. i learned a lot from simon diamond, dawn marie, steve corino,

The MiC: What promotions do you work for , and which are your favorites?

Harry Acropolis: UWA, NWA JERSEY/ NWS, WSW, AAWF, GWF, NECW, WWW, WWWA, powerhouse wrestling, HPW in hawaii there all great to work for. there all unique places. each promotion is different but there all the same.

The MiC: What is up with your ring gear, do you think that you expose alot of your body in your matches?

Harry Acropolis: I don't see why exposing my body should be a concern. when you have a body like mine it shouldn't be hidden. i have always tried to change my look. a lot of big guys on the indies wear black singlets and t-shirts. i just want to be different. it feels good to wear the trunks

The MiC: You are a tag team champion right now. What does it feel like to be a champion, and that a promoter has enough faith in you to hold it's title?

Harry Acropolis: it means a great deal to me that the gwf front office decided that and i could represent the company. i have only been wrestling for a little while and to be champion it is great. no matter where i wrestle and who its for i'm grateful to be wrestling

The MiC: Who are your favorite opponents to wrestle?

Harry Acropolis: I genuinely and honestly like all the people i wrestled against. but i always have a great time with hubie volk and kasey coresh. Kasey coresh is truly under rated. He can do all the hot spots, he's technical, he has lots of character and he can sell like a m*thafugga. Hubie volk is incredibly funny he is the most entertaining he say something in the ring and i cant help but to laugh. the kitchen utensil match we had was one of my favorites

The MiC: Who would your dream match be?

Harry Acropolis:.i would really like to have a dog collar match. it could be with anyone. i would like to wrestle some of the guys who helped train me. simon diamond, steve corino, danny doring

The MiC: What are your feelings on the past JWA joint show from Saturday August 23?

Harry Acropolis: Joe rules and rick sliver are professional and anytime they hook up with the gwf its a good time.

The MiC: Is there any truth to the rumor that you are related to Bastion Booger, Miguel Perez or George The Animal Steele?

Harry Acropolis: definitely not related to bastion booger or george stelee or miguel perez. all those guys went bald. i hope that doesn't happen to me

The MiC: What are your career goals in wrestling?

Harry Acropolis: my goals are the same as everybody else i just hope i can do this for a real long time.

The MiC: What do you think about the art of kayfabe being broken, with the advent of the internet and hotlines?

Harry Acropolis: it makes it real hard on the workers. a lot of the magic has been killed.

The MiC: Where do you see yourself in the future?

Harry Acropolis: if i hadn't made it to the promise land, i would like to continue working on the Indies. the Indies provide a more inmate setting for the fans. in a lot of the places i wrestle we are the live entertainment in town for the weekend. people spend there money with us. they could go to the movies or the blockbuster, but they chose to come here to be entertained. a lot of the guys aren't aware that the fans are what's important.

The MiC: What do you want to say to anyone reading this?

Harry Acropolis: i would like to say hi to all who read this and thanks for taking time out of your busy day to read this interview. to all the fans please support the Indies. keep coming to the shows and keep the Indies alive. and to all MY fans from sea to shining sea "its not about the best abs its about the most abs!"

The MiC: Thanks for doing this interview.
