Christopher Daniels is a man who had an idea, an idea that became the Kardinal Sinners. The former World and Intercontinental Champion speaks on some Kardinal Sinner related topics in this special interview.
The Kardinal Sinners are a very tight group of competitors, who have truly become a family. Why is it that you chose the three men that you did? Matt Hardy, Gregory Helms, and The Big Show..
Simple, my friend. Matt Hardy was an underdog, over shadowed by those around him, even his own family. Why? Was it because he didn't have the talent to compete with them? No.. it was because he was bullied in to a position. The Big Show was a monster.. turned in to a large jolly comedian. A man who's mere size should be able to make an opponent lay flat on his back so he can pin them to show them mercy. Hurricane Helms was a laughing stock of professional wrestling. I took those at the bottom, and gave them wings. They have rose from the grave and have broke every stigma put on them.
Many people wonder about what it really means to be a Kardinal Sinner.. can you enlighten us?
A Kardinal Sinner is a person who strives to be the best, through any means. He believes in unity and competition among friends and enemies. A Kardinal Sinner believes in himself, and he believes that those who negatively impact your life should be destroyed. Blood is medicine, my friend.
You say that you are trying to infect Full Force Wrestling. What is your opinion on this place that you are trying to cleanse through infection?
When I showed up in Full Force Wrestling, it was already on the downward spiral. Now it is starting to build up again. I believe that with the help of my great friends, and the Forsaken, that Full Force Wrestling will reach a pinnacle of success no man could ever imagine. Right now though, it wallows in a sea of feces and vomit, scarring the wrestling world.. but that will change.
You recently switched brands, what is the difference in both brands?
There is no difference. Both brands are filled with capable talent if set loose. I switched because I already conquered Revolution, and I needed a new sanctuary.
The four of you have been here for a long time now, will there ever be more members of the Kardinal Sinners?
As long as their is blood flowing through the cracks on the sidewalks of this polluted planet, there will be a Sinner to cleanse it. FFW will see a new infection yet, it will break free.. it will be a pandemic, that no one can stop.
Once a Sinner, always a Sinner. The Fallen Angel and his family will continue on their path to create the perfect FFW Legacy.

Earlier today, a FFW Colleague met with World Heavyweight Champion, Matt Hardy to ask him a variety of questions.
What are your thoughts on your match at Summer Showtime?
Me and The Big Shows match was a long awaited spectacle. Our second match with gold on the line and I am VERY proud of how that turned out. Big props to The Big Show upon his performance and I am more than happy to say that me and The Big Show had done it again.. We had blew the roof off of the building.. Great job, Show.. Live and fight strong, my brother.
Are you honestly where you want to be?
I've always been considered to be the bottom of the barrel when it came to wrestlers. I was so far down, so tossed into the dark that it was impossible to see the light from the outside world where other wrestlers live in glamor and glitz. A man reached his hand down and I grabbed it. As the smoke cleared I saw his calm, welcoming eyes.. Christopher Daniels. He slowly helped me up, rising me to the top of that very barrel to see that light. If I'm anywhere right now, I owe it to my dear friend, Christopher Daniels. But to answer your question.. Yes.. I am. I am proud.. With gold over my shoulder, being surrounded by my friends and my family 24/7? I absolutely love it. I wouldn't change a thing.
Who would you like to wrestle the most out of all FFW?
Honestly, there is two on my list. I would like to wrestle my brother, Jeff Hardy, to see how much he had grown since his return to FFW. I would seriously like to do battle with him again to truly see who is the better brother. The second wrestler on my list is "The Heartbreak Kid" Shawn Michaels. I idolized the man as a young child and I really want to square off with him in the squared circle.
What in your mind has been your best match in FFW?
Definitely the ladder match at WrestleFest II. I may have lost, but to say that I was there and I was a part of that match is more than an accomplishment.
Out of all the Kardinal Sinners members, who are you most impressed with?
I would say Gregory Helms. The Big Show definitely deserves everything he has accomplished in this business, but I'm quite impressed with Gregory Helms and how much he had grown with The Sinners. We all remember Helms being nothing more than a crowd-pandering joke.. But now you look at Helms and in his eyes you see a burning desire for blood and retribution. Helms and I have been acquaintances for YEARS now but I never seen him as focused nor as dedicated as I've seen him since his alignment with us, The Kardinal Sinners.
Matt Hardy seemed very open as far as this interview. Once the interview was concluded, he left with a smile on his face, carrying his title over his shoulder.

AN ORIGINAL SIN
the story of
the story of
Those that don't believe,
fall victim to themselves.
Many factions have came and vanished in professional wrestling history, especially in Full Force Wrestling. Due to whatever reason, from Revolution Evolution to Day and Night, and even years before this, FFW stables just didn't seem to work. That's why when the idea of the Kardinal Sinners rose from the ashes, no one thought it would ever reach a high level..
A true story,
always has a beginning.
Matt Hardy, Samoa Joe, and Christian Cage started out in HIW together, preaching 'the word' of Poetic Justice. A young, brash, up and coming stable, they were quickly signed to Revolution. Christian was forced to leave, and that left Matt Hardy and Samoa Joe to fend for themselves. Two weeks later, Joe seemed different, almost possessed. That night changed everything.. that night marked the coming of Christopher Daniels. Together with Matt Hardy, they destroyed the Samoan Submission Machine. This marked the beginning of an new era.
April 28th, 2009.
A true judgment day.
Christopher Daniels announces to the world that a different time in Full Force Wrestling is now upon us. He not only aligns himself with the then undefeated newcomer Matt Hardy, but also unleashes Gregory Helms and the Big Show from their previously "comedic-relief" only selves. No more Hurricane, no more Show-Prah, just bloodshed and destruction.
The biggest night of a life.
A memory and aftermath.[/b]
WrestleFest II, Christopher Daniels wins the first Championship for the Kardinal Sinners, being the Intercontinental Championship, also showing that he was under the advisement of evil wrestling mind Vince Russo before his pay per view match up. The next night, he wins the second.. capturing the World Championship. Matt Hardy takes the Intercontinental Championship, and soon after Gregory Helms captures the Hardcore Championship. The Big Show and Matt Hardy are to face off at the next Pay Per View, due to conflict in the group at the time, Daniels puts a spot in the Sinners faction up for grabs as well, the loser leaving with nothing..
A brother gone,
but not lost forever.
Matt Hardy, forced to leave the Kardinal Sinners, went on his own path. The other three reined supreme as the Championships wrapped tightly around their waists, a death grip never loosened.
Tragedy.
In the form of Satan's tool.
Christopher Daniels is beaten, bloodied, and destroyed after a match with Raven, by Vince McMahon's new hired gun, Brock Lesnar. Lesnar pins Daniels in a non-sanctioned match-up, taking his championship, and Vince McMahon then fires the Fallen Angel..
A brother lost.
A bond broken.
With Daniels gone, and Matt Hardy still searching for his true self, the Sinners started to crumble. Gregory Helms fell to the words of Matt Morgan, who lied his way in to getting Helms to aid him in attacking his own brethren, the Big Show. But Helms soon found the truth, as Austin Aries showed up with Matt Morgan, to defeat Helms for the Hardcore Championship. Big Show would then get his revenge. With Big Shows revenge, the truth sat in that a Sinner is all Matt Hardy needed in his career, as he joined back up with the angry Big Show. Three major things happened for the Kardinal Sinners at this point. Matt Hardy became the Heavyweight Champion. The Big Show went on to fight for the Lord of the Ring Crown. Then.. there was the return of Christopher Daniels, this time alongside Paul Heyman.
A new Lord is crowned.
A cord is cut on a comeback.
The Big Show wins the Lord of the Ring crown, becoming the new Lord of Full Force Wrestling, in the process guaranteeing himself another match with Matt Hardy, his partner. Christopher Daniels wins his comeback match, but is later injured once more, this time at the hands of the Phenom.
A brotherhood that can not die.
The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse Ride once more.
During the next while, Matt Hardy and The Big Show destroyed all in their way. Lord of the Ring, Heavyweight Champion, standing strong by each others side. Gregory Helms returns, saying he has seen the light, and rejoins. The attack by the Big Show, the stay in the hospital bed, it opens his eyes. The same week marks the return of Christopher Daniels, this time on Altitude.
The end of alliance.
The end of a Sinner..
Christopher Daniels returns to win the battle royal alongside John Cena at Summer Showtime, but announces his need to leave.. for personal reasons. Big Show and Matt Hardy fought hard at Showtime, with Hardy coming out on top.. the next night they work as a well oiled machine, destroying Paul Heyman.. who had something to do with the previous Brock attack on Daniels.
A future so bright.
No leader.. just ghouls in the night.
A hand raised, a true winner.
A Kardinal Sinner..

A FFW colleague met with Kardinal Sinners member, Gregory Helms earlier today to ask him some questions regarding his alignment with The Kardinal Sinners.
You and Matt Hardy have known each other prior to The Kardinal Sinners, has your relationship changed?
Drastically. Before we became members of the Kardinal Brotherhood, we were great friends, ever since my days back in WCW. We had plenty of matches and rivalries back in the WWE but that never seemed to change much, we toughed it out, and we knew like we know now, no matter who wins in the ring against each other, it doesn't come between friendship. Well, after I was approached by Christopher Daniels and convinced to join the Kardinal sinners, I learned that Matt was also a brotherhood follower, which was pretty coincidental I suppose, however we didn't get involved in the Sinners because of our friendship, we got involved because it seemed right. It still does, Matt Hardy is a good man, he does things that in his eyes are right, he carries out justice the way he sees fit.
Where do you see yourself and The Kardinal Sinners another 6 months from now?
Personally, I see the Sinners in total domination of Full force Wrestling, we already took control of Revolution at one time, and we will soon be again, while as for Altitude, we all know it's only a matter of time before it's overrun.
What was the driving force for you to return to The Kardinal Sinners?
Well, after I was taken out by Austin Aries, I was in the hospital for a while and a very large man came to visit me, repented me for my sins against the Sinners, but I had not wanted to come back to FFW, however, after I took up another job, a man came to visit me, the same man that brought me into the Sinners. He was just as persuasive as he was back then, convinced me to leave a job I hated to go do something I loved to do and always will, I came back feeding off of the fear of Austin Aries, toyed with his mind until ultimately he shattered. It was then i realized that I was home again.
You and The Big Show weren't on the same page for a short period of time.. How did that turn out?
Well it was my fault, I had doubts about the Kardinal Sinners when both Matt Hardy and Christopher Daniels left, I let someone fill my head with doubts, and lies and I betrayed my own brother. Before I came back into FFW, I refused to even enter the building until everything was forgiven between Paul and I.
Do you have your eyes set on Matt Hardy's title belt?
Well, at the moment, no, honestly I don't, I being the determined person I am, I start off at the bottom and work my way up, I've held the Hardcore championship, and next in line is the Intercontinental Championship, once I've achieved that, yes, I will be aiming for the World Heavyweight Championship, and I believe that Matt Hardy will still be champion when it happens, so best of luck my brother.. And I look forward to that night.
Helms has come a long way since he has joined The Kardinal Sinners, and from his answers, it seems that he sees himself going quite a bit further.

A giant man, the 2009 Lord of the Ring speaks on being a member of the Elite brotherhood, the Kardinal Sinners.
A Kardinal Sinner is a name known through out Full Force Wrestling. How does it feel to be a Kardinal Sinner?
It feels, above all else, RIGHTEOUS to be a Kardinal Sinner, as we continue or glorious crusade against the corrupted. Like being a soldier in a divine army, an army that will inevitably conquer all.
What does it mean to you, being a member of this 'divine army'?
You want to know how much it means to me? Look at what I do in the ring. I give my all, I sacrifice everything I have, and I do it all for The Kardinal Sinners. Being part of this brotherhood is like having your family by your side every time you do battle with the enemy.
How has your career changed since becoming a member of this new family, the Kardinal Sinners?
I think it's fair to say that everyone has noticed how my career has changed since joining the Kardinal Sinners. When I first joined FFW, I was stuck in the mid-card, constantly banging my head against the glass ceiling of the main event. But now, everyone takes me a lot more seriously, as they see me for the dark monster that I truly am. The Definition of Destruction.
Many people have fallen by the hand of the 2009 Lord of the Ring. Your list of destruction continues to grow. Who else in FFW, is going to be added to this list soon?
Anybody and everybody who doth not bow down in the presence of the Sinners.
In closing, I want your honest opinion. What is the biggest strength within the Kardinal Sinners?
The biggest strength in the Sinners? Loyalty to one another, and loyalty to the cause
Great things are in the future of the Big Show. His path of rage will elongate, until no man is safe.. which is just the reason he is in the 'divine army' known as the Kardinal Sinners.[/center]

on the Kardinal Sinners
Vince McMahon
Revolution GM
When FFW was in a time that needed something big to happen, the Sinners came along, and they certainly shook things up. They've prooven to be a very dominant force so far, and I'm sure they will be for some time.
Eric Bischoff
Altitude GM
"The Kardinal Sinners are a stable unlike any other in the history of FFW, they do what they can to win, which is what makes all of them former champions...right now, the Sinners are FFW."
Shawn Michaels
Altitude
"Personally. I don't have a problem with them, but I see them as a problem in FFW. Many would say I'm right. I'm sure of it."
Kane
Revolution
"The Kardinal Sinners...hahaha! Made of pretty men like Matt Hardy and Big Show...dirt pathetic if you ask me. It's pathetic excuses for human beings like them that make others want to hide in their closet and burn their homes down...HAHAHAHA!"
Bret Hart
Altitude
"The Sinners have been a force on Revolution. The have established themselves and have built quite the legacy, but from an Altitude point of view this was all done without any real competition. I would like to see them preform under real heat to see if they are the cohesive unit they claim to be, or if the cracks would seep through."
Santino Marella
Revolution
"The Cardigan-a Sinners? Well, first of all I believe that all of-a the hype around them is empty. Each member spouts a lot of the hot air. The Bigger Show, the number 1 contender and Lord of the Ring is a fatty man in a leotard. Matt Harday is-a the champion, but doesn't deserve any of the praise he receives. Harday isn't as bad though as the weakest-a member Helms. What does he a-do actually? I bet he-a stands in the corner, crying, looking like an emo. But then there is the Fallen Angel, Chris Danielle. The only member who deserves-a the praise and even then he doesn't compare to me, Santino Marella, the Italian Stallion! They are all-a push overs. FFW will find that out soon."
Jeff Hardy
Altitude
"My opinion? They seem like a pretty cool stable. If I'd have known about them before I came, I would have gone to Revolution and asked to join them. Imagine. Me and my brother in the most dominate stable in history. That'd be epic."
Sting
Revolution
"I think they are a glorified nWo. They are bunch of punks with no respect for the business. They wanna try to take over FFW, and use it as their personal playground. They wont get away with it, just like the nWo didn't. They will be stopped, its just a matter of time, trust me..."
JBL
Altitude
"I'd be honored to be associated with them, and enjoy watching them win. They're some of the best; they can rival the best that this business has ever seen... even the greats like me."
Kaz
Revolution
"Kardinal Sinners, probably the biggest stable of all time in FFW. Amazing line up with every member being once a champion or now a champion. With the World Heavyweight title being current around the waist of Matt and the two other members were the Intercontinental and Hardcore champion respectively, there's no stopping them. Maybe, 'cause you can never say when the stable would just be another squad of has-beens."
