The Rock Lands Another Movie Role, ROH Breaks iPPV Record

June 27, 2011

Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson has noted on WhoSay.com that he has landed the role of RoadBlock in the sequel to the "G.I. Joe" movie. Johnson has posted a photo of himself along with the G.I. Joe logo and a caption that reads "It’s official. Call the Pentagon, get me my big ass gun. Rock’s a Joe."

PWInsider.com is reporting that Ring of Honor shattered iPPV buyrate records with yesterday’s "Best in the World 2011" event and also had to turn away an additional 100 fans from the Hammerstein Ballroom in NYC. This isn’t the first time ROH has had to turn fans away from NYC events, as I witnessed fans being turned away from last year’s "Final Battle" event, which also had a very good crowd turn out.

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.
