The J-Transfer - Interview with the Champion

March 14th 2011



Hello everyone and welcome to another edition of the J-Transfer. I was pleased to be given the opportunity to interview the new NRWL Champion, Rex Anarchy. In our interview, we discussed winning the championship tournament, the caliber of talent on this season’s roster, and the challenge extended from Sons of Darkness manager, Nick Belhor.




Rex met with me at my desk in the NRWL Arena offices. He strolled in without the championship belt, looking casual in jeans and a plain black t-shirt. He didn’t appear to be interested being there. During our interview, he would look with distain at my fellow employees wearing suits and sitting in cubicles. Clearly, he didn’t like being in that environment.







Jay Phillips: Rex Anarchy, congratulations on becoming the first NRWL Champion of season four. How does it feel?




Rex Anarchy: Jay, winning the tournament was incredible. I’m not sure if you will ever know the feeling of true accomplishment but know that it is a great feeling. Although, in truth, I knew I had this in the bag from the start.




JP: Really? That sounds awfully confident. What made you think that you would win the whole tournament?




RA: Not think, Jay. I knew. I looked at the rest of the competition between my own matches and you know what I saw? Poor technique. Amateur skill. It looked too easy. Judging by how the night ended, I think you can agree I was right.




JP: Umm.. Well, you did come out with the belt but there’s a whole roster full of talent!




RA: There is. This season’s roster is impressive but it doesn’t mean that I am in the same league as them.




JP: Speaking of the roster, there’s two men you haven’t seen perform yet. Abbadon and Apollyon, the Sons of Darkness. In fact, their manager, Nick Belhor, has issued a challenge to you. Did you see it?




RA: Oh, the guys with the carny that speaks for them, right? Yeah, I saw that. It’s a shame they don’t speak for themselves because that Belhor guy is comical to even look at. How are you supposed to feel threatened by a little runt like that? Anyway, despite that, I have to admit, I like the guy.




JP: You like him?




RA: Yeah, he’s got the right idea. See, here’s how the NRWL would want things to go. They’d want to see me go up against guys like Quasar, or Ash, Slam Jackson, you know, the guys who have earned it in their eyes. But Nick Belhor? He kept his men out of the tournament entirely, a cowardly move, I admit. However, here’s where the great part comes in! He completely avoids following the format and decides to do it his own way. I love it! That’s chaos, my friend. He’s got the right idea.




JP: I never thought of it like that. How do you feel about his criticism of your status as champion? Do you feel you are part of the system?




RA: Huh? Oh, no, I don’t care. There’s a very big difference between social anarchy and being recognized as better than everyone else. He’s just trying to get under my skin but I would like to acknowledge his challenge. Belhor, yes, I accept your challenge against one of your brutes. Send whichever one you want. It’ll be more fun that way and I like surprises! I hope you do too because you might be surprised to see a big man cry through his mask.







At this point in the interview, Mr. Anarchy proceeded to stand up, reach across the table to my lunch bag, take out the sandwich I had, and walked away. That was it for the interview. As he was walking out I saw him take a bite and then throw the rest in a nearby wastebasket. What a shame. It was tuna. I love tuna.
