10 months ago, the promotion once known as Radical Wrestling Cartel folded under pressure with the greater competition kicking in and the economy causing RWC to drop in profit. Now, today, the RWC is back under new management in Jackie Williams. And to get answers on how, RWC.com caught up with Jackie Williams for questions and answers.

"First off, let's start this interview by saying welcome back, Mr. Williams."

"Thank you, and please call me Jackie... Mr. Williams is either my father or my cousin, Alex."

"Ok, well, Jackie the first question is simple... just how exactly did you get the rights to the RWC?"

"It's simple, really. My cousin, Alex, used to be a Co-Owner of the RWC. In fact, he was the biggest share holder in the company. And when it began to fold, he gave just a bit of that stock to Dan Sullivan, but the majority of the stock he kept. And after my run as DXX Mayhem General Manager, I got enough money to buy out his stock in RWC. And with me also being a share holder of RWC in the past, that left me with a big cookie. So after taking it up with Washington, I have been granted the right to use RWC history with my new RWC."

"When will RWC kick off officially?"
Jackie Williams
"Local house show events will be scheduled sometime soon, however, RWC Mayhem does not go back on the air until January of 2010."

"What day of the week will RWC Mayhem be on, and what will its station be?"
Jackie Williams
"In the past, RWC went head to head with some of the top promotions in the land with Monday Night Mayhem being on HBO. With it on HBO, we had a very explicit content. However, in this day in age, explicit is not accepted. So, with negotiations of major networks, RWC Mayhem will now air every Wednesday Night on ESPN2 at 9pm EST-USA. Check your local listings for more details."

"What changes have been made to the RWC this go around?"
Jackie Williams
"Well first off, RWC will be cutting back on its explicit content. No longer will there be nudity on our programming. No longer will there be an obscene amount of swearing on our programming. And, with the help of Williams Family Pictures, RWC will be generating more feature films starring some in-ring performers.
Also, the wrestling in this business will not be forgotten. Coming up, in 2010, the return of Cruiser-X Cup and the Gwen Memorial Tournament with minor tweaks to both.
Starting with the Cruiser-X Cup, this point based tournament is now named the "Wrestling Grand Pre" and will be a 2 month tournament that will begin at the beginning of May 2010 and end at the conclusion of June 2010. This tournament, unlike previous years, will be open to ALL wrestlers around the world and not just the select few.
The Gwen Memorial tournament will also be open to all wrestlers around the world. However, upon request from Gwen Araujo's family, the winner of this tournament will now receive a $250,000 grand prize!"

"Wow, well it looks like RWC's in for some great changes... well that's all for now, good luck with the resurrection of RWC."
