Kofi Interview

Rapper Wale recently spoke with WWE Tag Team Champion Kofi Kingston for Complex Magazine, and during the interview Kingston had the following to say when asked why he wears sneakers in the ring:

“I’ve always worn sneakers in the ring. I feel too constricted wearing wrestling boots. I started off wearing amateur wrestling shoes, but they’re so thin, I’d spike my heel if I didn’t bump flat, and it would extremely painful. So I switched to sneakers.”

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.
