-Who influenced you to follow professional wrestling?
My father was a Pro-Wrestler, so I was around wrestlers all my life.
If you could re-create the "Shakira" character, what would you have
done differently?
I would have had her break away from just being a Valet. Her true
talent lies with the fans. She should have been an interviewer.
In your opinion, what traites does a female character in professional
wrestling need to have in order to get heard?
Very thick skin and these days ... fake boobs baby!!
-If you were not involved in modeling, (which I would never wish
for), what else could you see yourself doing?
I always wanted to be an orthodontist. If not that then anything
that has to do with helping people look and feel better about themselves.
What do think about the current monopoly that has taken place in
professional wrestling?
I'm sure your referring to the WWF's purchase of the WCW. I think
it's a good thing. After all the WCW ratings were so bad. This will
bring back the excitement of competition again. More family feuds
and great pay per views.
-Do you think wrestling is missing something today, that it may
have had when your father competed?
Yes, I think there's to much hoochie girl stuff going on. There
are plenty of women out there that are truly athletic and have the
ability to wrestle with the big boys.
-Where do see professional wrestling headed?
I don't really see it getting much bigger then it already is. The
true fans will always be there even if the ratings drop, which I
think they will sooner or later.
-Where can fans next see Kim Kanner in action?
I still have at least a toe in the door at the WWF and WCW. So I
guess that's up to the fans to write in, that's if they want me
back?
-If fans wanted to get in contact with you, what is the best way
them to do so?

-Is there any wrestler in WCW you would have liked the opportunity
to work with?
Sure, the one and only "Rock"
-Did you ever work the independent circuit or consider it?
Nope never worked never considered it.
-Do you think working independent shows, would help expose your
character more?
Yes, I do think independent shows help with any kind of exposure.
That's if your a wrestler. The more people see you the more of a
fan base you'll have.
Not to mention all the practice in the ring and on the mic when
possible.
