Navigation Results Results Davegoheel: So,
Kiandra, you and Ferrah Lee are breaking in as two of the first divas
in IPW
for a long time. How has it been so far? Kiandra: It's
been really great. I think it's great for the fans also to see
something
different. We're showing that girls really can make it in this male
dominated
sport. I hope we are inspiring all those female fans out there as well. Davegoheel: I'm
sure that you are. You've been managing Sparow a lot lately. Is there
any
specific reason you've decided to duo up with him instead of somebody
else? Kiandra:
He's just an amazing talent. One of the best up and coming stars in IPW
today I believe. I've actually learned a lot from him since I came to
IPW. Davegoheel: He
certaintly is, seeing as he has already won the Extreme and is a top
contender
for the Heavyweight title. But even though your valeting for somebody
so
successful, at some point you might want to step in the squared circle
for
youself, don't you? I'm sure somebody with your athletism could teach
some of
those guys a thing or two. Kiandra:
The
guys
better watch out for me, because you'll definitely see me in the
squared circle
one day. I've worked really hard just to get to IPW and I'm not
stopping just
being a valet. Davegoheel: When
you get in, who's butt are you going to kick first? Kiandra:
After
this past week, I'm definitely looking for revenge on Tony Sly. He
blatantly
attacked me and I'm definitely not going to take that lightly. Davegoheel: Of
course not! You also have one thing that Tony doesn't have anymore: fan
support. The vociferous IPW fans can certaintly affect the outcome of a
match,
but we've seen them turn their backs on people in a heart beat. Why
don't you
just ditch them now before they ditch you? Kiandra:
I appreciate the support of the fans. Ditching them is
not an option. Davegoheel:
That's definitely reassuring to hear. If you ever get the chance, what
title
would you like to take a shot at? Kiandra:
It would certainly be an honor to go down in history as
the first women to hold any of the titles. I think being the Extreme
champion
would be amazing. Who knows? Maybe there will be a Women's Championship
in the
future. Davegoheel:
I think it'd be super cool if there was a Women's Championship in the
future. I
mean, you and Ferrah Lee could both have some pretty long runs as
champion. But
a champion has to have something that nobody else has. What do you
think really
sets you out in front of the pack? Kiandra:
Attitude. I've got a big attitude and I'm pretty tough. I might be
tougher than
some of the guys. I'm not afraid or intimidated by anyone. I work just
as hard
as everyone else. I definitely don't want to be seen as just another
pretty
face. As you can tell, I'm not the biggest person in the ring and I'm
sure I'll
be underestimated on my size alone. I plan on putting some truth behind
that
line "It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the
fight in the dog." Davegoheel: That's for sure. Attitude is one of the biggest
keys to success, especially
in Impact Pro Wrestling. So I've got to ask: what got you interested in
wrestling? Kiandra:
I've been a huge fan of wrestling as long as I remember.
It has always been something I was very passionate about it. Some women
have
come along in wrestling as well, and I would love to be another woman
who makes
an impact. Davegoheel: Of
course women have made an impact on the sport. From Moolah to Mickie
James, who
has really inspired you to become a better wrestler? Kiandra:
Of course Moolah has paved the way for all female wrestlers
out there, so of course she is a huge inspiration. I respect ladies
such as
Chyna, Ivory, Jacqueline, Gail Kim, Beth Phoenix and Molly Holly too.
My
biggest inspiration is definitely Mickie James though. She is one of
the
greatest female wrestlers today in my opinion. She was doubted all the
way
through her career mainly because of her size, but she didn't let that
stop
her. She made it her mission to prove all of them wrong. Now she's a 4
time WWE
Women's Champion and a 1 time Divas Champion. She worked her butt off
to get to
where she is. She's been in the ring with some of the best and has
pretty much
beaten them all. That is very inspiring to me considering her and I are
about
the same size. It proves that it really can happen. I was also inspired
by Lita
because she could wrestle in a way no other woman could wrestle. I
would love
to be able to do some of the things she did in the ring. Davegoheel:
So here in Impact Pro Wrestling, you're basically known as the Goddess
of IPW.
Is that name just based off of your dashingly good looks or are is
there a
deeper story to it? Kiandra:
I definitely think my looks have something to do with it. I've been
told plenty
of times I'm a pretty girl, but like I said earlier, I'm more than just
a
pretty face. A goddess is a powerful female being. If you've seen me at
the
shows, you know that I'm a very powerful woman. I haven't backed down
from a
challenge yet, and I don't intend to anytime soon. I think that has
definitely
been realized amongst the IPW superstars. I'm pretty sure some of the
guys are
actually scared of me. So they can call me a goddess, a diva or
whatever. Just
know that I'm not the girl to mess with. Davegoheel:
What do you think about the current state of Impact Pro Wrestling?
Where do you
see it going in the next five, ten years? Kiandra:
The
current state is pretty awesome I think. There's some amazing talent in
the
locker room and the fan base is growing. I don't see IPW going anywhere
but up.
So in five or ten years, I just see IPW being bigger and better. Davegoheel: What
about your own career? Where do you want to be in the future? Kiandra:
Right now, I'm just working hard and focusing on getting
in the ring. I just want to be the best I can be, then work even harder
to
become better than that. In the future, of course I'd love to be a
champion of
any kind someday. It's a long stretch, but anything is possible. Davegoheel:
One final question: what would you recommend to somebody looking to get
into
professional wrestling? Kiandra:
I suggest being prepared to work hard because if you don't, you won't
be
successful. Expect the unexpected. Take great care of yourself and your
body.
Getting hurt comes along with the territory. It's a long hard road.
It's a lot
of hard work and you need passion and dedication otherwise you won't
make it.
If you don't got the heart, don't waste your time. I support anyone who
wants
to break into this business though and wish them all the best of luck. Davegoheel: Well
thanks for taking the time for this interview. Hopefully we get to see
your in
ring debut soon! Kiandra:
No, thank you! And you'll see me soon, don't worry.

In the first
ever interview with an Impact Pro Wrestling Diva, Kiandra tells us all
about how she is breaking into a man's business, her future plans for
revenge, and why she is known as the Goddess of IPW.
