Nick’s 1/4 Raw Review: The Good, The Bad & The Wrestling

January 4, 2010

The Wrestling

Maryse vs Brie Bella: The concept of WWE running a Divas tournament on Raw is hilarious to me, when you consider there are all of 3 Divas on the brand that can actually wrestle, and one of them is now out with an injury. This match was as one would expect it to be, mostly bland with little flow. The Bellas are not wrestlers. They are guest host escorts.

Fatal Four Way Match: Jack Swagger vs Carlito vs MVP vs Mark Henry: This was a fun match. Although pretty predictable, as WWE has all but given up on Carlito and Swagger, it was still nice to see the four of them mix it up. I hesitate getting too excited about the MVP win, as he’ll most likely end up losing next week to The Miz and end up falling off the proverbial ladder once again, but I am hoping WWE decides to at least draw out a feud between MVP and The Miz.

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.
