Joey Ryan, who is known in wrestling circles as the master of the “Penis Plex,” has bought a house with his wife, fellow independent wrestler Laura James.

“Five years ago, this wouldn’t have been possible,” said Ryan. “The wrestling business has changed.”

The purchase is especially noteworthy because the money spent purchasing the $525,000 house in Los Angeles–complete with two bedrooms, one bathroom, and a pool–was earned through pro wrestling.

This is the first foray into home ownership for the couple, who are currently renting a home in LA.

“This is possible because of the support from the fans of independent wrestling,” said Ryan. “Without those fans, the whole independent wrestling scene wouldn’t be as prominent as it is.”
