Paglino: Jericho will be finishing his current WWE run on Sunday at Night of Champions, and he is certainly going out with a bang.

I have been critical of how Jericho has been booked creatively during his recent WWE run, which on the whole has been disappointing, but he’s certainly been firing on all cylinders in the ring the past couple weeks.

He had a hard hitting bout against Bray Wyatt at SummerSlam, another supremely physical outing against Wyatt on Raw last week, and now 5 stitches during a bout with Kane on Raw tonight. Kudos to the 43 year old.

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.
