Interview with C-NOTE MAC (C-LO MAC" of BROOKLYN'S MOST FAMOUS)




Mr Main Event BDUB had the pleasure of catching up with C-Note Mac, you may know him as C-LO Mac of Brooklyn’s Most Famous. Check out this interview as he discusses how he became a professional wrestler, who inspired him and why he feel he can change the perception of black wrestlers.
MEBD How long have you been a wrestling fan, and when did you first decide to become apart of the business?
C Note I’ve been a fan of professional wrestling my entire life NO LIE! & I decided to make a career of it in the fall of 2006.
MEBD: Who is your favorite WWE Superstar of all time and why?
C-Note: This is a tough one I swear but…I would have to say Bret ‘The Hitman’ Hart. I was drawn to the Hart Foundation from the first time I saw them on television. As I got older & was able to comprehend the aspects of pro wrestling Bret Hart stood out even more & not because of his pink tights or catch phrases but because of his in-ring workmanship.
MEBD: What was your favorite match of all time and why?
C-Note: WRESTLEMANIA XX… Benoit v HHH v HBK for the World Heavyweight Championship,I love this match & always will because it told three different stories involving three “STUDENTS of THE GAME” on the biggest stage at an historic venue & in my personal opinion it elevated all three athletes for the better.
MEBD: Who were you trained by?
C-Note WWE Hall of Famer “The Unpredictable” Johnny Rodz.
MEBD: What do you think of the business today as compared to the way it was growing up?
C-Note: Today everybody is GREEN everyone thinks because their a FAN or a “MARK” that they know it all. No one wants to pay their dues & work hard anymore. In terms of the business of back in the day I feel those guys worked the hardest & respected their fellow wrestler in this great brother/sister hood known as PROFESSIONAL WRESTLING.
MEBD: Which professional wrestlers have you met, and how did they influence your career?
C-Note: I’ve met several legends along the way but meeting PAT PATTERSON & “SUPER FLY” JIMMY SNUKA still stands out & compares to no other encounter to this day. Patterson told me to always hit the ring with the same passion I had as a kid watching wrestling,and that always sticks out everytime my music hits & its time to go to work. SNUKA said to remember to always entertain “CUZ BROTHA IF YOU CAN’T DRAW THE PROMOTER WON’T CALL YOU NO MAW (more)”.
MEBD: Can you describe the feeling of walking inside the squared circle and hear fans cheering or booing?
C-Note: I honestly very humbling yet exciting experience I think a person can ever feel.
MEBD: Do you prefer to be cheered or booed?
C-Note: They can CHEER or BOO me,either way they paid to see me,I didn’t pay to see them sit there & watch my every move.
MEBD: Which promotions do you wrestle for?
C-Note: I wrestle for TRU WRESTLING and ULIMITED CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING.
MEBD: How can fans find footage of you?
C-Note: Right now fans can look for me & my tag team of Youtube search: Brooklyn’s Most Famous
MEBD: On Monday Nights you participate in the Wrestling Wrealm conversation on facebook, how often do you become apart of debates about professional wrestling being “real”
C-Note:I try to join the debates as much as possible not only are they entertaining they actually open up your eyes to others views.
MEBD: Most people look at the business from a different aspect once they become a professional wrestler, how did it change for you?
C-Note: HELL YEAH!…I didn’t know so many wrestlers were & are so insecure and how much politics really does play a major part behind the scenes.
MEBD: How do you think that the internet has changed professional wrestling?
C-Note: The internet has changed pro wrestling for the better for a true fan as for a fan that lives in “kayfabe” the internet is the worst invention ever. Internet allows you to know things ahead of time and gives u results of taped programming & I personally appreciate that.
MEBD:What is your ultimate goal in this business?
C-Note: My ultimate goal is to change PROFESSIAL WRESTLING’S outlook on the “BLACK WRESTLER”.
MEBD: A lot of people feel that black wrestlers are not marketable, what would you do different that could change that statement?
C-Note: I believe in being the rage against the machine. I will do all I can to change that preception. Unfortunately when bookers & creative writing teams control the wrestler’s direction there’s nothing much else one can do.
MEBD: Do you have anything that you would like to say to the fans?
C-Note: To each & every fan out there its because of you that I entertain. I once was a fan of wrestling & now I am a wrestler who is a fan of all u guys/gals who come to shows & support pro wrestling. I tell everyone this quote so it applys… “IF YOU STOP DREAMING THEN YOU’VE STOPPED BELIEVING.”
MEBD: How can they reach you, and how can promoters reach you to be booked?
C-Note: I’m social network addict, Follow me on twitter @its_SPOTFACE I also have facebook search Chris Spotface McClain. Promoters can either reach me on twitter & facebook or they can email me at SPOTFACEmixtape@gmail.com

WWE Extreme Rules Post Thoughts.


Extreme Rules was the best Pay-Per-View I have seen by the WWE in years. I missed the Orton and Punk match, but from what everyone is telling me it was great. Kingston and Sheamus put on a very good match. When Sheamus first arrived, I thought he was pushed too fast, and I was not impressed. However, I saw that he had great matches with Kingston in the past, and Morrison. Kingston even looked aggressive in this match which really helps him a lot. This truly seemed like an extreme rules night and this in my opinion help set the night up for what we were about to see. When he leaped onto Sheamus to secure his victory, I was happy that I was treated to a great match.
Cody Rhodes and Rey Mysterio had a great match also. I thought that they had a potential show stealer at WrestleMania. This matched followed up very well. To see them go backstage seem like Vince McMahon meant what he said when he stated, "in order to move forward, we must go back a little" I had a feeling Rey would win this match, but I must say, he did not bore me with it.
Michael Cole and Jack Swagger vs JR and the King is not even worth writing about. For Cole to win again makes no sense at all.
Michelle McCool and Layla had a great match. Even with all the buzz around that McCool was leaving the WWE, she left giving the fans something to remember. Her and Layla actually went out and pull out everything. In the end, it was Layla winning and McCool leaving the WWE. As she got up, she was great by none other than Kharma. Formerly known as Awesome Kong in TNA, she came out and made a huge impact on the Divas division immediately. As if, being defeated by her former best friend Layla was not enough, Being driven straight to hell by a 200 pound behemoth put Michelle McCool in worse shape than she has ever been in her career. What was even better, a gang of WWE divas were in the locker room staring in awe as if they were all disturbed. Kharma in less than three minutes put the entire diva locker room on notice
Kane and Big Show defeating the Corre, being represented by Wade Barrett and Ezekiel Jackson was no surprise. The fact that this was a lumberjack match was stupid. I understand that this was a filler match, just to give you a chance to catch your breath, but a lumber jack match?
John Cena vs John Morrison vs The Miz ended up being better than I thought. This is the fourth time this year that the Miz has been asked to live up to great matches that came before him. At the Royal Rumble it was the Ziggler-Edge match, Elimination Chamber, the Smackdown Chamber match, and WrestleMania it was The Undertaker-Triple H match. The Miz is one of my favorite superstars, therefore it was a big shock to me to see him lose the title. I really liked R-Truth coming out and interfering in this match. I think he and Morrison can put on some great matches. Perhaps they will be bouts for the number one contender?
Christian and Alberto Del Rios match in my opinion should have been the main event going in. The belt was vacated for goodness sakes. These two put all they had into this one. Del Rio really made up for his cold feet at WrestleMania. I thought the Step Ladder was really funny. When Del Rio was at the top of the ladder, I just knew he was going become champion, but the big surprise was seeing Edge come out in a Jeep, of all vehicles, and blow the horn to distract Del Rio which gave Christian time to rise above the occasion, knock Del Rio off and climb up to the top of the ladder, much as he did before, but unlike the rest, this time he would become for the first time in his career, World Heavyweight Champion. Seeing Edge out there and congratulating Christian on his big moment was like none other. I cannot wait to see how this will elevate Christian and his career in the WWE.
