SCOTT FISHMAN Biography Scott Fishman, born
July 29, 1984 in Miami, began watching wrestling on his
grandfathers knee in the late 1980s. However, the real intrigue
or obsession began like most: the Monday night wars. It was a
time when Scott ventured to many video stores in search of pro
wrestling tapes to add to his collection. He loved Nitro more
than anything, including the international stars. While the need
for more additions to his vault have subsided to a certain
degree for financial and sanity reasons, his love for the
business remains. He attended a number of Nitro, pay-per-view
and Raw events in the area over the years. In 2003, Scott began
interning and free lancing for the Miami Herald under the
guidance of pro wrestling editor Jim Varsallone. It was at
this point he began attending independent shows in the locally
including IPW-Hardcore, Maximum Pro Wrestling and Major League
Wrestling. Early interviews and stories included Norman Smiley,
CM Punk, the late Mike Awesome and Antonio Banks (currently MVP
in WWE). His most uncomfortable and stupidest question happened
in the fall of that year when in a crowded Wal-Mart break lounge
he asked the Macho Man Randy Savage if Hulk Hogan died tomorrow
would he be sad. His first major WWE
interview, aside from Sgt. Slaughter at a Florida Marlins game,
was in January 2004 at a K-Mart signing. It was there he had the
honor of talking to the late great Eddy Guerrero. The
interview/article ran as the cover story in the final issue of
Total Wrestling magazine. From there he went on to interview top
WWE stars Triple H, Shawn Michaels, John Cena, Edge, King
Booker, Kane, Torrie Wilson, Ashley Massaro, Matt Hardy,
Mick Foley, Vince McMahon, Linda McMahon, Mark Henry, Carlito,
Batista, MVP, Jimmy Wang Yang, and others. In March 2004 Scott
took a road trip to Nashville to witness a TNA event at Asylum
live firsthand. There he did his first TNA interviews with Jeff
Jarrett, Johnny Fairplay, Americas Most Wanted, AJ Styles,
Vince Russo and Raven. A highlight came when Scott was able to interview the legendary Bret Hart on the WWE release of his DVD. During the summer of
2006, Scott did interviews with former Miami Heat dancer and
current ECW diva Layla before and after she won the Diva Search
competition. Also, that year controversy loomed on comments made
by the head of the ECW brand during its early days, Paul Heyman,
as it related to TNA. It was one a few times where his work was
cited in a breaking news story. Scott continues to
contribute to the Miami Herald and other print outlets while he
finishes up school at Florida International University. In the summer of 2007, Scott joined the Main Event Wrestling team to bring insight from the good old U.S.A with his weekly Flyin High audio segment. |
