WWE Raw Ladder (9/15): Who Moved Up & Down This Week?

September 15, 2009

UP A STEP – RANDY ORTON

After suffering back-to-back losses in 24 hours, you might be scratching your head over my decision to move Orton up a step, but the fact of the matter is that this guy played his part so well over the past two nights that he has to be looked at as nothing short of on a roll right now. A great heel is what makes a great face, and Randy Orton is arguably the best heel in pro wrestling right now. His work at Breaking Point in the “I Quit” match and his promo/bout on last night’s Raw broadcast made John Cena and Batista come out shining. Randy Orton was the perfect foil in both of those baby face momentum boosts.

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.
