RENE SHOOTS .....


Some of the best interviews that RFVIDEO conducts are those with professional wrestlers that have nothing to lose.  This past November, RF VIDEO was lucky enough to sit down with former WWE wrestler Rene Dupree for his first ever shoot interview that will be sure to turn some heads.  You don't have to be a fan of his to love this interview as Rene held nothing back talking about some of the darker subjects that have to do with our business. Wether it was talking about his own personal demons that he has battled with over the years with drugs, or the deaths that hit him the hardest with Eddy Guerrero and Lance Cade, Rene opens up big time.

Rene has his own theory on what happened the night that Chris Benoit went over the edge, and to be honest this one sounds to be the best theory that I have heard yet. You will hear how JBL treated him backstage and in the ring. What really went down between Rene and Bob Holly over the car ticket incident and the beating that Bob gave Rene during one of their house show matches that got Bob fined. You all heard Bob's version of this story and now Rene has his chance to speak on the issue. Rene has also worked with all of the top names in the WWE and shared the locker room with the Undertaker, John Cena, Steve Austin, Randy Orton and everyone else. Rene has tons of never told before stories on all of the current talent in the WWE that you guys will love to listen too. I highly recommend this DVD just for his stories alone.

The interview starts out looking at the early career of Rene Dupree and how he grew up in a wrestling family as his father is a very famous Canadian promoter.  Rene talks about the path he took to break into the WWE at a very young age. We talk all about his time in OVW and how he got called up to the main roster.  Once Rene got there he had to face many obstacles and a few bullies along the way. The stories of his time in the WWE locker room are worth the price of this DVD alone.  They are very interesting and never before shared until his shoot interview.

We also take a look on what lead Rene to leave the company and start a career in All Japan. Rene has also worked for many indy companies over the last few years and plans on starting up another company in Canada with his father once again.  This interview is a eye opener on what goes on behind the scenes in the locker room and what the life is like on the road of a full time WWE wrestler.   One of the better interviews of 2012!!!
