Melissa From Nova Scotia:
Faarooq, I was just wondering why you hate Ahmed Johnson so much?
Faarooq:
That's a deep-rooted question. It has to do with heritage. He sold out.
Lord Ullter:
I was really surprised that you lost your match Sunday night,what went wrong?
Faarooq:
I was surprised I lost to him! The reason I lost is because of dissension among the Nation. That's why I fired them all.
Peter Ransom :
What did you think of ECW while you were up there and also how it has grown over the last two years?
Faarooq:
It was different. And by different, I mean they try hard, but it's not the WWF, where the Big Boys play.
Big Baybee:
For a long time we heard that the wrestling business was a racist one.Why would you agree to involve yourself in such a stereotypical angle that overshadows all of your great past achievements?
Faarooq:
Well, what part of the world doesn't have racism? When you find that place please let me know because I'd like to go there!
Peter:
What's your take on the Shawn Michaels/Bret Hart incident on Monday?
Faarooq:
You mean the catfight? I think they should've had a Dog in it, like me, to show them what a fight is really like.
Steve:
Do you know when Mark Henry is going to return?? Will he join the nation?
Faarooq:
Don't know and don't care!
Chris in Ottawa:
Faarooq, what's your relationship like with the other
wrestlers back stage?
Faarooq:
The same as it is in the ring, except I don't get paid to beat 'em up behind the scenes!
ken:
WHO WOULD YOU WANT TO WRESTLE OUTSIDE OF THE WWF?
Faarooq:
My ex-wife! (howls of laughter)
Chris in Ottawa:
Faarooq, for what do you attribute the constant rating
loss of RAW IS WAR to WCW Nitro? If RAW has the better
product, why do most fans tune into Nitro?
Faarooq:
It's simple. Turner owns his own company. When you run wrestling a million times a week, you can't lose!
Robert:
Do you enjoy wrestling as a "bad guy"? Or would you prefer to wrestle as a "good guy'?
Faarooq:
Oh, god, BAD! Even when I was good, I was bad, so BAD is the best!
jt prez.:
besides yourself, who is the best wrestler in the wwf?
Faarooq:
If I had to break it up into three people, I'd say me, myself and I!
Stephen Dame:
what is your opinion of the wwf working with, ECW, UFC, and
possibly even the FMW from Japan
Faarooq:
I don't get into the business aspect of it. My job is to beat up people whether they're black, Japanese, white or other!
Richard Millan NANAIMO B.C. CANADA:
Did Wolfie D and the other guys get fired by you or did they just quit?
Faarooq:
I fire them. I threw them to the wolves! Nobody quits The Nation!
Eric Hunter From Rialto, California:
What is your opinion on Crush?
Faarooq:
Very good athlete. Very good wrestler. It's a shame I had to fire him.
Eric Hunter:
Why Do you feel that Vince McMahon is holding the WWF title
from you?
Faarooq:
He's afraid of me being in the front running for the title. He's not holding the title from me! That's left up to the wrestler to determine.
Carmelo T.:
Hi, I was just wondering how you became interested in wrestling. I know your brother, John, is a bodybuilder, and I also know that you were a football player. Thanks.
Faarooq:
Glad he keeps up with my family! I was actually recruited by a Japanese trainer 13 years ago after football and I haven't turned back since.
jtprez:
if steve austin wanted to wrestle you in a steel cage match,would you take him on?
Faarooq:
And beat him! And that's the bottom line!
birdman:
How many new members will there be?
Faarooq:
Right now, I have no number in mind, but much larger than before.
jtprez:
at what age did you first break into wrestling?
Faarooq:
I was 25.
billy:
Will you get another shot at the WWF championship?
Faarooq:
I'm sure of it.
Chris:
How do you feel about the revoking about the Ottawa football
franchise?
Faarooq:
I was very upset. And I still want to know the reason behind it.
LISA:
Y ARE U SO SEXY
Faarooq:
Thanks a lot!
Wildone:
Will Rocky Maivia join the Nation?? We havn't heard from him in a while?? A surprise entrance maybe??
Faarooq:
Absolutely not!
canoereader:
Faarooq, in the first few months of your WWF tenure, your workrate
simply was outstanding. More recently, however, you seem to be
struggling in the ring. You're getting a lot of 3-move victories.
Might this be the result of injuries that you've sustained during your
WWF tour of duty?
Faarooq:
No. It's just that my opponents aren't worthy. It doesn't take long to beat them.
jtprez:
what do you think about bret hart's comments about the american wrestling fans?
Faarooq:
Bret has his opinion. As I do. I even bashed him that time!
Faarooq:
Greg Oliver:
Two more questions and Faarooq has to run!!
Mike:
Would you like to see Harlem Heat leave WCW and join WWF and the Nation?
Greg Oliver:
Faarooq:
That could be a possibility.
Herschel Walker:
What do you think of Ahmed Johnson saving your butt from the Undertaker at the KOTR??
Faarooq:
Ahmed interfered where he had no business. I didn't his help! And how's Wrightfield, Ga if you're Herschel Walker??
Faarooq:
Greg Oliver:
Thanks from Moderator Greg Oliver and SLAM! Sports
Faarooq:
NOD Rules!
