Okay so the title of this post is a little misleading. The person that I am talking about was my best friend during high school, but I was not lying about him being a pro wrestler.
For the sake of this story we will call my friend Graham. Graham moved in next door to me when I was a freshman in high school. He was in Junior High at the time but as there really weren't any other kids in the area we became friends. In Junior High he started wrestling and when he got into High School he was on the Varsity Football team and Varsity wrestling team.
Now during High-school Graham was about 5'7'' but weighed in aroun a buck-seventy. The boy was muscle. When he graduated from HS he had a chance to go to a college in Colorado on a football scholarship. He turned this down to marry his HS sweetheart and to move to Texas to become, yes no joke, a professional wrestler.
But wait. Theres more...
In high school Graham was known for having a new girlfriend jsut about every week, until his last one that he married that is. But before her like I said he had girls just hanging off of him. What was really funny though was how extremely homophobic he was. I mean if you even joked that he could have gay tendencies he would clock you.
So we have this homophopic married wannabe WWE pro wrestler who moves to Texas which for the most part fits his personality as homosexuality in the South is not a largely smiled upon preference if you know what I mean. So somehow Graham hooks up with what I have found out is a large wrestling organization in Texas, meaning that he now travels across the entire state and wrestles in front of tens of thousands of fans.
But the best part is that his whole wrestling persona is that of a GAY wrestler. Yes that is correct folks the biggest homophobe that I have known is now pretending to be gay in front of thousands of people each Saturday night.
God bless America, that's all I can say. God bless America.
