Jem was recently interviewed by Wrestling Website Diva Dirt:

Diva Dirt: Now us Brits know you as Inferno from Gladiators, but you are in fact a trained wrestler. How did you get into wrestling and can you give us some insight into your wrestling career?

Jem: I was always into wrestling as a child and grew up watching HHH, Chyna and Shawn Michaels. I did submission wrestling as this was about the closest thing I could do to pro wrestling as well as trampolining for the arial moves, as there wasn’t anywhere else to train. I then was asked to do some modelling work at a local wrestling show and after that did valleting for FWA and Doug Williams, who was on TNA the other day, before getting a scholarship in the USA where I am still in training.

Diva Dirt: Here at Diva Dirt, we reported that you had a tryout with WWE in 2005 in Manchester. How was the experience?

Jem: The experience was great, I got to meet Kurt Angle, Shelton Benjamin, Ricky Steamboat and Finlay. At the time I didn’t have any pro wrestling training under my belt, I got to show them I was willing to take bumps and had a passion for the business and they said liked my look and promo skills too. Overall it was very positive and encouraged me to get into the industry.

Jem: I have so many inspirations in the industry that have achieved so much; the list could go on forever to name a few: Triple H, Undertaker, Shawn Micheals, Big Show/The Giant, Rick Rude, Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan, Mick Foley and Jeff Hardy. I love seeing Vince in the ring too as well as Shane with his coast to coast trash can drop kick!
