El Lindaman Wins G-REX Championship
Lindaman’s Rise
El Lindaman had quite the rise to the top of the wrestling world. From the very beginning, Lindaman had to work his hardest to stand out. He had uncontrollable charisma from the very beginning but had to put in the work between the ropes. He is 5’3”, so he is often the smallest man in nearly all of his matches. However, that didn’t matter; over the years, he has worked and worked to become one of the best wrestlers in the world.
Not only that, but Lindaman has gathered a lot of fanfare with his big personality. He was often labeled a talented junior heavyweight wrestler and nothing else. Now, in GLEAT, he has a battlefield that’s best suited for him. In GREAT it doesn’t matter how big or small you are; you have the same chance to succeed as everyone else.
The Hard Work Pays Off
GLEAT has taken the world by storm and all the eyes were on this championship tournament. In said tournament, Lindaman may have been the unsung MVP. As stated, at 5’3”, Lindaman wasn’t assumed to be a future world champion. However, that hard work paid off and he won the tournament being presented the belt by Kenta Kobashi. Certainly, this was a dream that came true.
There has been no challenge made for the belt quite yet, but surely that will change. El Lindaman is the perfect catalyst to lead the company into a GLEAT future.
