The Masked Maniac & Friends Shoot Interview (2007)

This is the Masked Maniac & Jac Sabboth dual shoot interview, where they talk all about NY indy wrestling and everything that goes along in it. However, at around the 90 minute mark, The Masked Maniac really takes over the shoot, answering a barrage of questions.

What makes this shoot interview like nothing seen before is that people from The Masked Maniac's (aka Frank Goodman) past come to confront him and ask him several questions about business. Make cameos and discussing stories with Frank are Grim Reefer, Ref Hanson, Rocksha 337 (MUST SEE, as these two haven't seen each other in 5 years and Frank & Rocksha get in a screaming match), Mitch, and others!

The shoot starts with Frank & Jac discussing all the old USA Pro & UCW days. Everything is discussed from the 1999-2003 time period. Frank admits to giving Jac a wrestling education, while both finally tell the truth about their business dealings.

Aside from the above, here are more questions we asked Frank:
