Update on Beth Phoenix’s WWE Status, Kingston Talks SSlam

August 21, 2009

The Wrestling Observer is reporting that several officials within WWE have begun to sour on Beth Phoenix. There were rumors circulating of this nature awhile back when Phoenix was not seen on TV in over a month, however, things seemed to look more positive for the diva once she returned. However, it’s now being reported that WWE is unsure how to use Phoenix at the moment, so they decided to split Rosa Mendes away from her and have her work with Carlito.

In an interview with Slam! Wrestling, WWE US Champion had the following to say about being left off this year’s SummerSlam card: "It’s bittersweet. I would definitely love to be on the card and be involved, but as of now, I’m not."

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.
