Sean Waltman has gone by many names, most notably X-Pac in the WWE as a member of DX. His auspicious career includes numerous titles, and he broke the mold for guys under certain “size restrictions” to have a notable career in the world of professional wrestling. Knowing the hardships of several injuries in his career, Waltman is very well acquainted with the lingering effects the squared circle can have on the body, and has decided to help the future of wrestling create funds for healthcare awareness, and chose Wrestlers Rescue (http://www.wrestlersrescue.org) as the recipient.

Through all the chaos, M-Dogg also remains one of the elite stars of Pro Wrestling Ohio, airing Sunday nights at 10:00 on Sports Time Ohio (official television network of MLB’s Cleveland Indians) throughout much of the Unites States, where he became the first-ever PWO Champion in the summer of 2008, and has waged wars with the region’s best ever since.

6 Years on: Remembering Mike ‘Hawk’ Hegstrand
——————————————————–
As the only team to win the AWA, NWA, WWF and All Japan tag titles, the Road Warriors- Animal & Hawk, were the highest drawing and biggest earning tandem in wrestling history. Along with Hulk Hogan, the Warriors helped to popularise the juiced up muscleman look that 75% of big name wrestlers had by the late 1980s. During their peak years from 1984-89, the Road Warriors were an awesome duo, destroying opponents with power moves, and had a huge following in the US & Japan who loved their no-selling, kick-ass ring styles and unique image. But for Hawk, his success and excessive lifestyle caught up with him in the end. The years of steroid and drug use (especially Cocaine) ended his ride for good on October 18th 2003 suffering a massive heart attack.
