Big Update on Future WWE Live Events in Canada

April 24, 2011

Thanks to Devon Platana for sending in the following:

Hey, my name is Devon Platana from Ottawa, Ontario! I just read on canoe.ca that WWE Monday Night Raw will be coming to Ottawa, Ontario on September 12th and Smackdown will be recorded in Toronto, Ontario the next night. Here’s the complete article:

While it had already been announced that Edmonton would get an Aug. 22 RAW and Calgary would host the Smackdown! taping on Aug. 23, SLAM! Wrestling has learned that Ottawa will get a Sept. 12 RAW TV show and Toronto will host the Smackdown! taping the next night.

While Ottawa hosted Smackdown! last year, it has been several years since a RAW TV show was held in Canada’s capital city.

Upcoming non_TV WWE shows in Canada: Winnipeg (May 27, RAW live event), Regina (Aug. 19, RAW live event), Saskatoon (Aug. 20, RAW live event), Medicine Hat (Aug. 21, RAW live event), Barrie (Sept. 9, RAW live event), London, Ont. (Sept. 10 RAW live event), Halifax (Sept. 10, Smackdown live event), Kingston (Sept. 11 RAW live event), Moncton (Sept. 11, 1 p.m., Smackdown live event) and Fredericton (Sept. 11, 6 p.m., Smackdown live event).

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.
