Zach Gowen Talks Using Wrestling To Escape From Life

Former WWE Superstar Zach Gowen is now writing at PWMania.com. Gowen posted his debut column talking about his unique story on how he broke into pro wrestling and WWE. He also writes on how pro wrestling helped him escape from life when he couldn't cope. Here is an excerpt from his first entry:

"Pro wrestling helped me escape from life when I couldn’t cope. Pro wrestling provided me with common ground from which I could build foundations for lifelong relationships. Pro wrestling gave me a career and sense of direction when I needed it. My involvement with pro wrestling (more specifically WWE) saved my life when I was at a turning point. My subsequent recovery gave me my career back as well as the courage to pursue new career opportunities. To say I’m grateful for what this industry has done for me would be an understatement."

Dolph Ziggler's Brother Talks On His WWE Journey

Former WWE NXT Superstar “Briley Pierce” and Dolph Ziggler’s brother, Ryan Nemeth has published a new column at PWMania.com. Nemeth talks about about his professional wrestling journey, including photos of his journal entries while in OVW and more. Here is an excerpt from his article:

"A person doesn’t simply decide to “become” a professional wrestler. It’s not an instantaneous transformation that occurs overnight. One does not wish really hard and wake-up the next morning a wrestler. No, in fact, depending on the person, the transition from layman to wrestler can be a tediously long, drawn-out process with many starts and stops, ups and downs, smiles and tears, backward moves and forward moves, and so on and so forth."
