28 years old, wrestling fan since 13 and more passionate every day. Love following independent promotions as well as WWE, NJPW and Impact. I enjoy an undercard match for AAW Pro as much as an NJPW main event match, so i can be objective and have always wanted to write articles about wrestling. I live an hour from Toronto, Ontario and work full-time so i don't get to attend shows much but i watch every day. Can contribute any article on pro wrestling. Studied Journalism at Durham College in Oshawa, Ontario.
