What’s NOT Bothering Me?: Rock Returns, Santino, Best Ever

February 26, 2012

Some positives in pro wrestling this week…

#3. Steve Austin Praises HBK

Austin said about HBK in a recent interview, “He is the greatest in ring performer I have ever seen.”

There were better talkers. There were better technicians. But from a pure entertainment standpoint from bell one to bell two, Shawn Michaels was truly one of the best, if not THE best.

My personal opinion? I think the idea of “Shawn Michaels is the best in ring performer of all time” is no longer an opinion. Too many people that matter have attested to just that. And no, I’m not including myself in that list.

I do know one guy, however, that “might” not agree with Austin on this one. I won’t give it away, but here’s a hint: his name begins with “B” and ends with “ret Hart.”

Nick was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, and lived there until the age of 18, when he decided to pack his flack jacket and move to New York City.

Nick attended New York University and graduated in 2001 with a degree in Drama.

Nick first entered the internet wrestling community back in 2004 when he became the co-host of The Voice of Wrestling Radio Show. From there, Nick made the transition from radio personality to editor when he began working with WrestleZone in 2008.

Nick is a member of two Off-Broadway theatre companies, Another Urban Riff, and the Drama Desk Award winning Godlight Theatre Company. Nick has appeared in over a dozen Off-Broadway plays since he moved to New York City, and has shot several short and feature length films. In 2010, he completed principle photography on a film titled "How to Score Your Life," which also features TNA Knockout ODB.

Inspiration in his life has come from many people including his family, Woody Allen, Steven Spielberg, Jack Nicholson, The Beatles, and of course, Lassie.
