June 9, 2014

sting video As we noted earlier today, WWE sent out two casting notices today seeking a Sting body double and actors/musicians to play the role of the "orchestra" in some type of promo video for Sting being shot on June 16th.

PWInsider.com then provided an update on the developing story, noting the film shoot was taking place for an upcoming Sting documentary project, and so WWE could collect B-roll footage of Sting for future use.

F4WOnline.com is now reporting the planned Sting project is NOT being filmed for WWE programming, and is actually a project from another agency that frequently works with WWE.

Once news of the Sting casting notice broke, speculation obviously began that Sting has signed a deal with WWE, but as of this writing, Sting has NOT signed any type of deal with WWE and there are no plans to bring him to TV anytime soon.

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.
