MLB Team Uses Signed WWE Belt As Game Winning Reward

June 6, 2010

MLB.com is reporting that the Toronto Blue Jays have been using a John Cena autographed WWE Championship belt as a reward to the player of the game in game winning situations. The article notes, "Brett Cecil stood in front of his locker, shaking his head and smiling as a few teammates laughed on their way out of the Blue Jays’ clubhouse. Slung over the pitcher’s right shoulder was a large black and gold wrestling belt.

It was the real thing, too. A WWE title belt signed by wrestling superstar John Cena. Hoisting the elaborate prize up for an entire question and answer session with reporters was Cecil’s well-earned reward for overpowering the Yankees in a 6-1 win on Friday night at Rogers Centre."

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.
