Fred: I’m here for TheSportsCourier.com with my knight in shining armor, or I guess blue armor, the Blue Meanie, who ran off the Headbangers and saved me from all but certain demise. Blue Meanie, how you doing?
The Blue Meanie: I’m doing good. I’m glad I could be of service against those rascally, skirt-wearing rascals. Me and the Headbangers go back a ways, and I know they’re mischievous. I’m mischievous too, but don’t worry, my friend. You’re safe with me.
Fred: I certainly feel safe. What brings you here tonight at PWS?
The Blue Meanie: PWS is one of the premier independent wrestling organizations in the Northeast, maybe even the country. You see some of the best action and the best wrestlers, the known stars and the future stars, because they bring them up through the wrestling gym, put them on the shows and then put them in the ring with the Blue Meanie. Hopefully tonight I can come out victorious.
Fred: Hopefully you will, sir. I’m just wondering, how do you get that epic beard? How long did it take you to grow that thing?
The Blue Meanie: Just a little love and care. You’ve got to keep it trimmed. You’ve got to nurture it. You’ve got conditioner. You’ve got to take care of the ‘do.
Fred: We were talking off the air, and you’ve got some projects outside of the ring. Can you reveal any of them?
The Blue Meanie: I just had a movie released called “Miss December.” It was released through Kevin Smith’s Movie Club. I’ve been acting like a wrestler all these years, so I might as well be an actor. I also just did a documentary with Mick Foley, a good friend of mine from the WWF. He’s producing a documentary about real-bearded Santas and what they do the rest of the year after Christmas. Mick loves Christmas, and I used to travel up and down the roads with him in the WWF, so he wanted me to come in and tell people about his love for Christmas. He just started a Kickstarter for the project, “I Am Santa Claus.” I’m doing independent acting and independent wrestling, just trying to keep my hands in a little bit of everything and stay out there in front of you fine folks who have supported me for the last 19 years. I would be nothing without the fine folks at home.
Fred: One of the fine folks at home had a very obscure question for you, but obscure and the Blue Meanie kind of go hand in hand. Could we see a Bluedust reunion?
The Blue Meanie: Me getting back together with myself? You mean me and Goldust? Anything’s possible. Pro Wrestling Syndicate would be the perfect place to do it. They have all these great matchups. Tonight I’m going to be watching Disco Inferno against Colt Cabana, two of my favorite guys, and that’s going to be an entertaining match. Pro Wrestling Syndicate gives fans unique matches, whether it’s Tito Santana against El Matador or whatever. They always have that creative thing to make the fans go “Ah.” Only in Pro Wrestling Syndicate could you have Jushin Thunder Liger here in New Jersey. It’s a great promotion, and great people run it. They care about the fans, and from their school to the shows, it’s top-notch.
Fred: Disco Inferno’s dancing is also top-notch. Would you say you’re a better dancer than Mr. Glenn Gilberti?
The Blue Meanie: We’d have to get the officials of Pro Wrestling Syndicate to sanction an official dance-off. I think I have a little more cushion, a lot more shake and a lot more bounce. He could be good, but time will tell when we get the two of us in this ring.
Fred: Where can fans find you online?
The Blue Meanie: When I’m not on “America’s Most Wanted,” you can find me on Twitter as the Blue Meanie, and you can find my alter ego, my real self, Brian Heffron, on Facebook. Click subscribe, and hopefully I’ll entertain you online as well.
Fred: Thank you so much for the time, Mr. Meanie. Definitely a pleasure.
The Blue Meanie: Thank you, and thank you to Pro Wrestling Syndicate, too.
