CMT has ordered eight episodes of "Runnin’ Wild …From Ted Nugent," a reality-competition series that will feature the right-wing rock star and hunting advocate teaching contestants how to survive in the wild, then chasing after them along with his 18-year-old son, Rocco.

Series will begin running on the MTV Networks channel in August.

Bischoff Hervey Entertainment ("Scott Baio is 46…and Pregnant") and Insomnia Media are the production companies behind the project, with Eric Bischoff, Jason Hervey, Steve Bowler, Bret Saxon and Jeff Bowler serving as exec producers. Bob Kusbit, John Hamlin and Claire McCabe handle executive producing tasks for CMT.

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.
