Talent Reaction to No Tribute Show, Angle Now on Facebook

October 2, 2010

We reported yesterday that there will be no overseas WWE "Tribute to the Troops" special this year, as scheduling conflicts have made the trip impossible for the company to book.

In an update to the story, PWInsider.com is reporting that there was a general sigh of relief amongst talent in the locker room when they heard the news of the trip not taking place. The feeling is that while the talent doesn’t mind the actual show and the work they do over seas, the flight itself on the cargo plane, which also carries all the equipment including the ring, is one of the most dreaded trips of the year. Talent is said to be much more pleased about doing a domestic Tribute show.

According to his official Twitter account, TNA star Kurt Angle has in fact opened a legitimate Facebook page which can be viewed if you click here.

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.
