LordsofPain.net writer Daniel Pena reports that Chuck Palumbo recalls his career in an interview with Josh Modaberi of Wrestling101.com as he discusses WCW, the final episode of WCW Monday Nitro, egos in the WWE dressing room and more.
The multi-time champion admits that he was not a wrestling fan growing up. He tried his hand at the industry after watching a television commercial.
“I actually saw an advert on television when I was watching WCW Nitro, they had an ad for the Power Plant. At the time I was in college and I was on a full basketball scholarship, but I decided to leave school early and go for it, it was just one of those things where I made the decision pretty much based on instinct,” he said. “I never really watched WWE on television and to be honest with you I only really watched WCW for a few months before actually getting into the business.”
