March 18, 2016

UFC fighter CM Punk is currently doing a Q&A at today’s Chicago Comic and Entertainment Expo, and WZ’s Nick Hausman is live at the event capturing exclusive video from the Q&A which will be posted in full later tonight. Below are some highlights:

Punk noted that due to his recent back surgery, he’s never had so much down time. He added his training is limited to about an hour of weights each night.

He is going to the movies a lot in his spare time, and is religiously watching “Better Call Saul” and “The Walking Dead”.

When asked if he still watches wrestling, Punk said no. He added he currently does not watch any pro wrestling, and that includes promotions like Ring of Honor and NJPW.

WZ will be providing more updates as the expo progresses, with updates on Ken Anderson, Mick and Noelle Foley and more.

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.
