Fan of the Squared Circle Returns, Smells of Wet Fritos

Wrestleboy back in the day

Readers of Happening in the kinda-sorta-distant-past may remember reports made by young wrestling expert Wrestleboy. Though short of stature, WB had the knack of discovering interesting tidbits in the wrestling world. Unfortunately, a misunderstanding with the authorities placed the youth on a ban from wrestling activities in HTG.

Wrestleboy is back, however. He's older and larger. And he's still a lover of the sport.

"Yeah, they tried to kick me out of the arenas for life" Wrestleboy declared at a recent fan meeting. "But I got that overturned. It's not my fault that sometimes people didn't see me and say things that they shouldn't. But now I'm taller and larger. They'll see me now, so they have nothing to worry about."

WB smiled when he added "Maybe."

The young athlete's love for wrestling has prompted him to join the local Grab My Tights Club, run by club president Edwin Knifefingers.

"He's a real go-getter" stated the club head at the mini convention, hosted by the club. "He's eager to get into the sport on a professional level. If he keeps it up, I think he'll be able to accomplish his goal.

"As for wrestling rumors, the only thing that I heard lately is that the reason TCW's new event got postponed is because they weren't sure they'd have enough Hardy Boys T-shirts printed to sell. That's a joke, right? That's not a reason to delay anything. When in doubt, I say, blame The Rock."

The star-studded World of Wrestling: Mania opens this Friday. TCW Hotter Than Hell Part II will show starting May 8.
