More on RVD’s TNA Status, Carlito Now Free From WWE

August 26, 2010

The Wrestling Observer is reporting that Rob Van Dam’s current TNA deal calls for him to work 75 dates. If TNA books him to go over 75 appearances, the company must pay him upwards of $10,000 per date. It is believed that RVD has already worked 60 dates, which is why TNA has taken him off TV, so that they don’t over-use him in 2010.

Former WWE star Carlito’s no-compete clause with the company expired over this past weekend. He is now free to work with any wrestling promotion that wants to hire him.

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.
