Eric Young Talks Keeping His Beard & More

During a recent interview with Examiner.com, TNA Champion Eric Young had the following to say:

Keeping his beard for TNA & his Off The Hook reality show:

"I think if I shaved my beard I might lose both of my jobs. The beard is one of my things now and has been since 2009. I had a beard when it was considered weird. If I shave now people would not recognize me."

Reaction to him being champ:

"The beard makes me completely recognizable. There is no hiding from it – and I don't want to hide from it. People I meet love seeing the title. They tell me congrats Champ – and it is a thrill. It will never get old."

WWE Diva Gets a New Finisher

WWE Diva Rosa Mendes has posted the following on Instagram:

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.
