Missouri Wrestling Revival

By Scott Brown

Welcome to “Ten Pounds of Gold”, where I, your host, Scott Brown, give you a chance to get to know the best wrestlers in the National Wrestling Alliance, personally. On February 7, 2015 Santana Garrett defeated Barbi Hayden for the NWA Women’s Championship. Since then she has consistently been one of the best wrestlers, man or woman, in the world, week in and week out. I recently had the pleasure to have a discussion with her about her career, her life and the future.

Scott Brown: What is the best memory you have of growing up with a pro wrestler for a father?

Santana Garrett: My dad didn’t start wrestling until I was in middle school but that was always our bonding experience. Coming from a big family, finding a niche like that with my dad was something I always treasured. It brought us together. He’s one of my biggest supporters!

Scott Brown: What is the best thing about your roommate, Larry Zbyszko?

Santana Garrett: Everyone knows about Larry. From his feud with Bruno Sammartino and Shea Stadium to saving Nitro from the New World World, he’s a wealth of knowledge. But the best thing about having Larry as a roommate, he’s the best puppy sitter for our dog, Charlie!
