2 lovely people, Chris you are a gentleman and your interviews are just right for me, and Lisa (Victoria) is such a lovely lady that i hope is recognised more from a certain company in the near and safe future.
@@pedro55845 Molly validated this Roderick Strong statement as well in another interview. Molly knew of Strong when he was 14 in the indie scene and “borrowed” it from one of his wrestling tape (she admitted to “borrow” moves from indie tapes) Later Molly met him at an autograph signing and the rest is history.
I actually met Lisa at Comicpalooza here in Houston, she came by my artist table took a pic, signed a blank comic book cover and i drew her as Wonder Woman. She is the sweetest person to talk to, and exceptionally beautiful
WWE needs to induct her into the Hall of Fame. I’d also like Chyna to get a solo HoF spot. Lastly, even though this has nothing to do with Victoria, let’s get justice for DEBRA.
Since the corona had to get a new job as a handyman in some apartments . Ur podcast is so great and keeps me laughing and entertained. While I'm alone fixing some electrical work or installing a toilet. Thank u for keeping me distracted and making time go by so fast ur the best
Crazy how many interviews Chris has done and I choose to watch Victoria's. I'm not particularly a woman's match guy altogether , I just think she's one hell of a super woman. Good peeps right there.
It’s a shame Chris is too scared of Stone Cold to give us a Debra interview. One of the only people alive today to have went on to do big successful things post wrestling career. All she gave to the business and they cut her out of every attitude era highlight reel to avoid reminding viewers that their top talent beat the fuck out of her. It’s WRONG. I need to find a wrestling podcast with the balls to address the Debra situation. I personably IG’d Chris and emailed him he’s clearly afraid of Austin and the ramifications of the interview, but it needs to happeb
@@SnowWhiteTheU2 I dunno , maybe it's years removed from my younger day but I'm so glad I don't have that hardcore opinion on fact or fiction in the wrestling biz anymore. Everyone's got a shoot , I just come for the good stuff.
Ok hell yeah!! Although Chyna was the xena to me haha man speaking of, xena had this natural badass killer instinct feel to her man I loved her back in the day! AJ Lee and Taryn Terrell having that unhinged deranged sexy aggressive nature of Callisto
Victoria actually rules. Seems like such a cool girl, she is one of the best of her time and one of the least appreciated. Trish and lita were great, but Victoria deserves some credit too.
That's because Chris is charismatic and personable!!! Dude is awesome! I think it's because he puts more spotlight on the wrestlers than himself. He is a humble dude!
10 mins in and i am loving this. 24 years old and Victoria seriously got me into women's wrestling. Just felt like she was the most legit women's wrestler of my childhood
@@jmsantillan7794 some people age like a fine bottle of wine or in other cases good bottle of whiskey bourbon or rye or scotch. To me she is the black widow queen, and her finisher look so brutal the first time she did it. The name was befitting for the way I look when it was done.
@@seanclark9258 oh yea man Vic came back for royal rumble I was my 14 year self again I was like " 😍😍😍😍😍 and shes still beautiful . im glad Vic is known as the black widow
I was a fan of hers during her WWE run. Gorgeous, incredibly athletic, could actually wrestle and sold like only a few can. Way ahead of her time and criminally underappreciated. It was great seeing her at the Rumble!
I’ve watched countless interviews with WWF/E talent and I’ve gotta say, Lisa is by far the absolute kindest, warmest, appreciative talent. I just absolutely adore her and love her.
People need to stop putting so much stock into a fake Hall of Fame that only exists in one man’s head. Victoria is a legend, she doesn’t need validation from an 80 year old to know it.
@@arnoldeli4720 Good point, there needs to be a pro wrestling HOF thats non promotion owned. WWE should never have the responsibility to say who is HOF or not look at the company as a whole and if u blindly defend it your logic is lost with Fandom
I loved Lisa so much! No matter if she was Victoria or Tara, she gave so much to both, so very talented and skilled. Will say I hate how they did most of the women back in the day in WWE, but they made her character crazy and wild. Wish we had more matches with her and Nattie as tag partners.
Wow I'm enjoying watching former WWE Victoria & TNA Impact Tara, she's so awesome and she's so down to earth chick she's so cool, I wish that WWE contact her for that first ever Women's Royal Rumble...
This truly is an inspiring interview Chris I absolutely have loved Lisa her whole career shes simply the best human being on this earth I love her sooo soo much!! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼👏🏼👏🏼 and I'm just so so proud of wheres shes come...😍😍🥰🥰❤❤❤🔥🔥
I remember watching wrestling with my stepdad who wasn't really a wrestling fan. Victoria comes out for a match, he didn't even talk during it! He was paying complete attention to Victoria. Afterwards he told me she was his favourite because in his words "She was the only one who actually *LOOKS* like a wrestler!
I will always sing the praises of Victoria. She used to have a restaurant in Chicago called the Squared Circle and it felt like she was there every day watching wrestling and hanging out with the patrons. I watched a lot of shows with her! She used to rent party buses to get to different shows in the area and would bring her wrestling friends to the restaurant for pictures/autographs. I've met Bad Influence, Tommy Dreamer, The Young Bucks, Roderick Strong and even Paige and Emma shortly after they debuted. She would also have watch parties during Wrestlemania time and I got to sit with her at her table for WM30! She was honestly the best wrestler I've met in person and an even beter human being!
When you have an LP, you're most favourite one..... and after all the years, you take in your hand, turn it around....and you suddenly realize, you love this side even more. Thanks Lisa, thanks Chris!
Victoria is one of my favorite wrestlers of all time! I have met her well over 10 times and she is always a humble, funny, and gracious woman. She even sat with me at her restaurant in Chicago and watched a smackdown episode with me. She is such a pleasure!
Wow, Chris what a great conversation!!! Really enjoyed!!! Lisa is awesome!! What a truly cool person!! Oh Lisa, We share Feb 10 as a birthday!! I'll be doing my 60th!!
I'm a normal person I'm not that scary she is a total sweetheart even though she was a heel most of her wrestling career I thought sleeping was meditating 😂🤣😂🤣
Truly one of the coolest and most badass faces of The Women's Division during the Ruthless Aggression era. I always felt she hit her peak so well through her psycho "All The Things She Said" phase, especially with Stevie at ringside during certain matches. Superbly pleasant that I'll get to meet Lisa for the very first time this weekend at RCWC! : D
Dude I’m so glad you did this one. I’ve always loved Victoria!!! Probably my Favorite Women’s Wrestler from her WWE days definitely deserves a HOF spot and Tara was great at TNA
Awesome, I LOVE Victoria! She’s one of my favourite female wrestlers ever - she had tons of charisma, she was a fantastic worker but at a time of stick models, she also looked super strong 💪 She had it all and her TNA run was just as good as WWE
This woman being made to job to the bellas in her last year, and still not being in HoF is a disgrace. She is absolute saint, you can tell that just from any interview she’s in.
Lisa Marie Varon... Es perfecta, se esforzó tanto para ser una luchadora. Tiene su legado establecido en el mundo del pro-wrestling. no me importaba contra quien luchaba siempre esperaba que ella ganara (excepto contra Molly) Gracias por la maravillosa entrevista
It hurts to hear she can't wrestle again! I hope to still see her one day, re appear as a manager, something. She has so much worth in the industry still.
Great interview! Really wished you had asked about her pizza store company that is now closed down and especially her having perhaps the best Diva heel turn moment in 2004 when she beat up the Diva Search girls in a swimsuit contest and kicked Jerry Lawler hard in the groin.
Great interview Chris! I always though Victoria was cool. Great to hear her story about Chyna. I knew Chyna and despite her problems she was a kind person. I would have loved to see an interview with you and Chyna. Also, looking jacked Chris! 💪

Love you Victoria! Thank you for the interview Chris. 🙏
2 lovely people, Chris you are a gentleman and your interviews are just right for me, and Lisa (Victoria) is such a lovely lady that i hope is recognised more from a certain company in the near and safe future.
Lisa has to be in WWE Hall of Fame
MJ
Damn, hearing Victoria saying that she's an anime fan and naming dropping Attack on Titan, and Sailor Moon is just absolutely awesome
Man, Victoria’s history is crazy, she became a wrestler because of Chyna, she got her finisher from Roderick Strong... 😂
And nicki minaj did one of her themes
Old head wrestler always lie and try to connect with today wrestler's
TATU did her theme too
She's a goer apparently

Can we see a copy of the artwork?

Artist goals right there! :D
@@aztecwrrior1997 i need a way to get the pic to you guys
@@MrBrianSalinas send it to my FB my name is the same as it is here
She hasn’t aged in 20 years. Hell of a competitor. What a woman!
@sneksnekitsasnek I’ve been graying since 17 and balding since 20 and I’m 30.
Victoria still looks as good as she did and I had a crush on her at 12.
u forget to relize. she has tons of make up on. also hard to say how she looks n person
@sneksnekitsasnek That’s because she is human.
@Death Adder nope not really she has not
@Death Adder no Sir.
Victoria was really good. She had success in both TNA and WWE so she's definitely deserving of more recognition
I forgot she was in TNA. Her run in WWE was as good as the Trish and Mickey storyline.
My 2002-2006 crush and she still looks divine!
Always loved Lisa no matter what promotion she was on! She's a great ball of energy and positivity!
“Lisa, please.... your energy.” -Torrie Wilson 😂
WWE needs to induct her into the Hall of Fame. I’d also like Chyna to get a solo HoF spot. Lastly, even though this has nothing to do with Victoria, let’s get justice for DEBRA.
Chyna is in the Hall of Fame
@@kevin084life Not as a solo entry.
Actually no Chyna and Victoria both have porn I don't think wwe wants that
@@kevin084life ya, I said solo spot !
@@pedro55845 Well, that’s a lie. Victoria never did porn, and WWE already inducted Chyna with DX. So, you’re wrong.
Victoria was such a great character, I remember her cage match with Trish and really took the Womens division to the next level
lita (cage match) trish ( hardcore match)
Exactly!
One of the best.
Easily one of the most underappreciated wrestlers of all time. Great and very natural mind for the business.
Can confirm Lisa's(Victoria's) nerdyness. You can find her wandering round both Chicago Comic Con and C2E2 and is very kind.
Great interview with great stories!
Since the corona had to get a new job as a handyman in some apartments . Ur podcast is so great and keeps me laughing and entertained. While I'm alone fixing some electrical work or installing a toilet. Thank u for keeping me distracted and making time go by so fast ur the best

I agree, along with Jazz the two most under appreciated female wrestlers
@@jonmarrie8093 I knew there was someone else from that time I was forgetting. Jazz was sick too.
@@blacktytrix he does an interview with her as well
@@jonmarrie8093 just looked for it, im going to need to watch that after this one.
This guy never has a bad interview.
and he is the never the one that makes it trash ha
The first matt sydal interview😂 ..not his fault though so you're right
That's because Chris is charismatic and personable!!! Dude is awesome! I think it's because he puts more spotlight on the wrestlers than himself. He is a humble dude!
Victoria is so awesome and so real in all of her interviews! She’s a great human being all around.
This was one of the best interviews. Lisa is so humble and had a lot to share!! Thank you for this!!!
10 mins in and i am loving this. 24 years old and Victoria seriously got me into women's wrestling. Just felt like she was the most legit women's wrestler of my childhood
I love Victoria. She's so cool! She's got my favorite finisher EVER and she's so likable IRL.
you forget cuz she had such a psycho character but lisas such a sweetheart, miss seeing her
One of the best
Man I used to have a huge crush on this woman in my late teenage years lol
You're not the only one man and she still beautiful at her age
Vic in her prime 😍😍😍😍😍 damn and still at her age wow
@@jmsantillan7794 some people age like a fine bottle of wine or in other cases good bottle of whiskey bourbon or rye or scotch. To me she is the black widow queen, and her finisher look so brutal the first time she did it. The name was befitting for the way I look when it was done.

@@seanclark9258 she had one awesome finisher the widow's peak now Peyton Royce is doing her version but its not as brutal as Victoria's
Her best entrance song was All the things she said by T.a.t.u. , wish she had it her whole WWE run!
"I want to talk more about tna"
*grabs drink*
Lmao!

Amazing interview!! LOVE Lisa Marie! WWE failed to realize what an amazing talent they had!
Here after Victoria FINALLY returned to WWE since 2009 battle royal and cameo appearance from 2014 during Lita's Hall of Fame! 💛☀️
Victoria should be in the WWE Hall Of Fame

One of the true and very underrated pioneers of women’s wrestling! Thank you for this, Chris!!!
I've learned that in life if you see someone wearing a fanny pack they're either a wrestler, or a bodybuilder lol.
Or hipster/ over 55
Or most likely both
@@OfficialPesoNeto Or all four if you're Johnny Swinger.
Zubaz pants
Or it could be they are famous and dont want their ID and money stolen.
Underrated talent. A shame that the WWE won't recognize her. I wonder if it's to do with Cena.
Victoria was my childhood crush lol I was super excited for this interview! Thank you, and good job as always Chris! :)
Wow I'm enjoying watching former WWE Victoria & TNA Impact Tara, she's so awesome and she's so down to earth chick she's so cool, I wish that WWE contact her for that first ever Women's Royal Rumble...

SHE SAID "INCONCEIVABLE" AND HE DIDN'T KNOW WHO SHE WAS TALKING ABOUT!!!! INCONCEIVABLE!
I think Victoria/Tara was such a huge star in wrestling during her time. Definitely one of the best ever. HOF FOREVER!
A wrestling friend of mine got put over huge by Victoria a few years back and was just so cool to see! A great person for sure!
I love Varon's energy. If she could have gone another hour she would have. Van Vliet's interview skillis are great. He is so giving.
Victoria is one of my favorite wrestlers of all time! I have met her well over 10 times and she is always a humble, funny, and gracious woman. She even sat with me at her restaurant in Chicago and watched a smackdown episode with me. She is such a pleasure!

Love love love her..for almost 20yrs. Her personality is golden!💐💐💗

Oh Lisa, We share Feb 10 as a birthday!! I'll be doing my 60th!!
Damn she’s still as gorgeous as ever
Crazy how I tweeted The other day that I wished this interview would happen and bam this pops up. Way to put a smile on all of our faces!!!
Let's Gooo 💪🏾💪🏾🔥🔥
Lisa by far is my favorite woman wrestler that I've met she is such a sweetheart very kind and humble person she is awesome
I'm a normal person I'm not that scary she is a total sweetheart even though she was a heel most of her wrestling career
I thought sleeping was meditating 😂🤣😂🤣
She will always be Tara to me as i know her from TNA/Impact.
She is turning 50!! She looks incredible. I thought she was younger than me and I’m 44!
Truly one of the coolest and most badass faces of The Women's Division during the Ruthless Aggression era. I always felt she hit her peak so well through her psycho "All The Things She Said" phase, especially with Stevie at ringside during certain matches. Superbly pleasant that I'll get to meet Lisa for the very first time this weekend at RCWC! : D
I miss seeing her week to week. Even if she doesn't wrestle I'd still like to see her on commentary. Great interview!
I met her at The Pasadena Comic Con in Jan 2024. Sooo nice. What a sweetheart.
Literally one of my favorite ChrisVanVilet interviews
Dude I’m so glad you did this one. I’ve always loved Victoria!!! Probably my Favorite Women’s Wrestler from her WWE days definitely deserves a HOF spot and Tara was great at TNA
Chris youre on to something with youre positivity its refreshing
Let’s all just give a thumbs up for Victoria/Tara. cause she’s legit a great lady and wrestler Thankyou
What a cool woman she is. Absolutely not shocked that she made it when you hear her speak and her attitude towards everything.
Awesome, I LOVE Victoria! She’s one of my favourite female wrestlers ever - she had tons of charisma, she was a fantastic worker but at a time of stick models, she also looked super strong 💪 She had it all and her TNA run was just as good as WWE
Victoria is awesome and such a nice lady. WWE has to invite her back for a Rumble spot and eventually a HOF spot.
Victoria is hands down one of the best wrestler of all time
He's such a great interviewer and listener I love it
This woman being made to job to the bellas in her last year, and still not being in HoF is a disgrace. She is absolute saint, you can tell that just from any interview she’s in.
She's so good at what she does
Love you Lisa so much!
Just watched your Gaw interview and came to find this video! ^_^
Welcome!!
I love both Victoria and Chyna.
Damn I can’t stop staring at that print
Met her at comic con SD a few years ago. She was great. So friendly.
Victoria is so underrated and underappreciated

7:20 EXCUSE ME, but Donatello was always my favorite!!! I’m used to that reaction 😂💜
This was a really great interview, I didn't want it to end. Lisa Marie... the best wrestler I've ever got to see.
Thank you Chris van Vliet for being awesome interviewer
It hurts to hear she can't wrestle again!
I hope to still see her one day, re appear as a manager, something.
She has so much worth in the industry still.
Your reaction to Donatello....ouch, Chris! Haha! Thanks always for the great content, your interviews are always a pleasure to watch!
In person CVV interviews are always a must watch.
Hopefully we can have some more in 2021!

Amazing interview!! Congrats to you both!
Had a super "crush" on Victoria in her hey days when she was the "crazy" character thing! Loved her so much!!
Literally spat my drink out to Melina and the eyeliner part 🤣🤣
Ugh, I love Lisa even more now knowing she loves Sailor moon and TMNT ❤️😍
Legit watched this last night and hours ago she returned in the Rumble! I knew it!👏🏼
Chris Van Vluhh! You have legends driving to you now. You’re a legend yourself.
I freaking love Victoria/Tara/Lisa... Class Act all the way 👐
I have a ton more respect for Victoria after this interview... have always like her and her work in the ring, but a lot more now.
I always thought Victoria was so hot. I saw her and Micky James in a club at City Walk (Universal studios) probably like 10 years ago.
Wow didn’t know she was such a nerd. Another great interview. Thank you.
Victoria: I don't like my name
Sting: What's the name?
Victoria: Tara
Sting: That's sexy
Victoria: Tara it is
Lol love it
Great interview!
Really wished you had asked about her pizza store company that is now closed down and especially her having perhaps the best Diva heel turn moment in 2004 when she beat up the Diva Search girls in a swimsuit contest and kicked Jerry Lawler hard in the groin.
Victoria still is gorgeous
Great interview Chris! I always though Victoria was cool. Great to hear her story about Chyna. I knew Chyna and despite her problems she was a kind person. I would have loved to see an interview with you and Chyna. Also, looking jacked Chris! 💪
