Why do so many workers hate Roland Alexander? He's the hefty promoter of APW who you might remember from "Beyond the Mat". Apparently a lot of people who worked with him now have heat with him, why?

I only know him from beyond the mat. But Roland saying 'yeah they get paid' and the guy who's name I forgot saying 'at times we don't get paid' gives me an idea why people don't like him.

'Shooter' Tony Jones was the guy saying that, he has/had a website mentioning the issue in an interview, only a brief mention but i'm sure he said he didn't have problems with Roland.

Was he ever a wrestler? I have no clue why this guy would be head of a wrestling school if he wasn't a wrestler

He was ugly as sin, & the editing with the contradiction always made me laugh.
Why doesnt the guy with the mullet & cocknose ever get mentioned here? "The only guy who hasn't heard of Jack is The Snake is probably Santa Claus."

Can someone explain another thing that was brought up in the movie. If one of his guys got a contract he received part of it. Why? I never understood this and I think it is common in wrestling. Why? You pay to be trained, you wrestle matches for free (or even have to pay for them in some cases), so why do you have to pay these guys again if you make it to the big time?

"The only guy who hasn't heard of Jack is The Snake is probably Santa Claus." That guy was mentioned before. They called him 'the guy with a nose on his nose'. I don't remember his name, but I did find some stuff on him. He was a motorcross and monstertruck promoter and did that stuff himself too. It seemed he was pretty good motorcross star.

Ed Beckley was big nose. Another reason people don't like Roland is falsely advertising Lance Storm recently.
