Man Acquitted in Wrestling Death of 18 Month Old Child

According to The Associated Press, Brandon Hoffman, 21, has been acquitted in the death of 18-month-old Bryson Shoemaker by an all-female Lycoming County, Pennsylvania jury.

You might recall in May 2015, Hoffman performed The Undertaker’s ‘Last Ride’ powerbomb on Shoemaker, who was the child of Hoffman’s girlfriend. Instead of landing safely on a bed Shoemaker landed hard on the floor, causing fatal head injuries.

The jury in the case deliberated for less than two hours before finding Hoffman to be not criminally responsible for Shoemaker’s passing. Hoffman was acquitted of aggravated assault and involuntary manslaughter, among other related counts.

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.
