Reaction to MVP’s Release, New Cage Match Idea Discussed

December 3, 2010

PWInsider.com is reporting that few people backstage in WWE were surprised to see MVP leave the company as the former Smackdown star had been openly frustrated with his position in the company for awhile and has been speaking about leaving for quite sometime.

The Wrestling Observer is reporting that prior to WWE’s Hell in a Cell PPV, the creative team was told to come up with a new type of gimmick cage concept as officials feel the Hell in a Cell concept has run its course and something new and unique is needed to help bring in more PPV buys and spike interest.

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.
