Exclusive Interview
In February of 2001 I had a chance to get a interview with ECW Diva, Jasmin St. Claire.
How did you get involved with ECW
I 1st got involved with ECW @ the 1999 Living Dangerously pay per view. Then, I decided that I really
wanted to do this full time since I have been a fan at the age of 8 years old. I love wrestling. I am currnetly being trained by Mando Guerrero.
What was it like in the ECW Locker-room
It is great! It ois very close knitted & like a big family. I love EVERYONE there.
Would you ever go to the WWF or WCW if they offered you a contract
Of course I would. Who would'nt?
Which wrestlers were the most fun to work with
I like working with Rhino, Balls Mahoney, Francine, Jazz & Prodigette.
How did you like your time in the company
I love it at ECW. It is a great place to start. Paul Heyman has a very creative mind for the business.
Did you enjoy being a valet
I see myself more as a manager since I get involved in the matches. I would love to wrestle eventually.
Right now, I am a manager who takes great big bumps (I took a piledriver off the 2nd rope from Rhino) and gets involved in the matches.
How are the other women of ECW to work with
Fabulous! I have learned alot from Francine.
What were your thoughts when many ECW Stars began leaving the company ie Tazz, Raven and Lance Storm
My thoughts were that they were taking opportunities that were offered to them. I wish them all the best.
What was it like entering a arena with thousands of fans shouting and looking at you
I love the rush & the energy. It is an unexplainable aura .It love a loud audience!
Did you enjoy doing all the ECW Media appearances
Of course I did. I am a team player & love to do whatever helps the company.
What are your thoughts on the recent WCW Sale and do you think WCW will turn around now that you have new owners and management
Hopefully it will. I don't really follow it as much as I used to.
What are your thought's on ECW's current situation and do you think ECW will return one day down the road
I know it will do well. We have an excellent product.
Who did you hang around with most backstage
The Blue Boy, Francine and everyone else I guess.

1wrestling.com & Smash Wrestling.com
If you could wrestle anyone who would it be and why
I wanted to say Sheri Martel, but I worked with her last July, (I loved working with her), so I guess I
would have to say Madusa. She is incredibly talented & she would be a great person to learn from. i wish she was on tv more often.
If you could be any wrestlers valet who would it be and why
Anyone. I will manage whomever I am told to.
Where do you see yourself in 15 years time
That is hard to say. If I could figure out that one, I would buy I lottery ticket today.
Have you ever made any worth mentioning mistakes when performing Live
I am not sure. I have to look at some of the wrestling tapes I have & see.
What has to be your greatest wrestling moment
Working at ECW and being trained by Mando Guerrero. I really appreciate the fact that ECW gave me a chance to be a part of this business. Mando has inspired & given me courage in so many ways.
How did you get into the wrestling business
I knew Bubba Dudley & he asked if i wanted to do a spot on the Living Dangerously PPV with Francine. I said ok . Then I worked some indies and then returned to ECW.
What would you call your best physical feature
I can't say since I never really judge myself. I leave that to the fans.
How has your wrestling career effected your life as a whole
