The Wrestling Observer is reporting that Terry Funk had to pull out of his match in Robersonville, North Carolina this past Saturday night. Funk, 64, cited a knee injury and was replaced in the match by Jake Roberts. Ryan Sawyer, Kevin Payne and Jake Roberts then defeated Steve Corino, CW Anderson and Ricky Landell in a steel cage match.

The Miami Herald has a story on former WWE star Romeo of the Heart Throbs, who is now going under the name Giovanni Roselli. He has a role in the upcoming Darren Aronofsky film The Wrestler. Since his release from WWE in 2006, Roselli has worked as a personal trainer, independent wrestler, and actor in films such as College Road Trip and Baby Mama.

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.
