Wrestling Respect #6 – Paul Richard Interview Part 1
Photo: Nikolai Volkov, Paul Richard, Cowboy Bob Orton
This is a big interview for me. Paul Richard worked as ECW’s New England representative, booking and promoting all the shows that ECW ran in New England from 1996 until 2000, when problems arose and he ended the arrangement. Paul opens up and talks about his own career, from being trained by Killer Kowalski in Salem, MA at age 15, working the New England independent scene as a referee, and then graduating to the WWF. But perhaps most interesting stories come from his experience with ECW. Part 1 of the interview is 55 minutes and you’ll hear about everything I mentioned, plus all the details and memories that accompany the facts.

Paul and I were best friends in high school and have lost contact in the past 26 years. I remember going with him to Killer Kowalski’s school, Walter wanted me to go into the ring but after he smashed someone over the head with a board I said, “NO thanks”. If you talk to Paul again could you pass him my email address or look me up on Facebook?
thanks
