Preparing is essential to executing a stand-out interview.
Hello and welcome back to Public Kayfabe!
Your one-stop shop on how to land and execute top interviews with wrestling’s elite.
To recap our last time together, you nailed your research, story pitch and the wrestler you contacted has agreed to meet with you for an ON-RECORD interview!
Cue the fan freak out in three…two…one!
OK, let’s settle down!
This next part is simple, but VITAL; the interview preparation.
This installment will focus on various questions you can ask in order to gain a deep and insightful connection and conversation.
Since you have a narrowed down talking point that your subject agreed to be interviewed on, that’s what you’ll focus on.
The next thing to do is ensure your questions are open-ended.
Be sure to cover all your bases by steering clear of known taboo topics with your subject, but also give them the space to open-up.
Remember, despite the boisterous, over the top nature of the wrestling industry and the characters they portray – these are human beings, no different than you and I.
You’re probably wondering how you’re going to stay focused on that, right? Well, fear not because next week’s installment will guide you through etiquette ground rules to remember just that!
