Ryan 's Bio

I'm a full-time television news reporter and I also host a pro wrestling radio show called "The Beatdown". Check out our website at wbgnbeatdown.com for the best in pro wrestling. I was a huge Chicago Bulls fan (back when Jordan was in town), a member of the "Raider Nation" (Commitment to Excellence), and a giant wrestling fan. So check out my articles and give me feedback.

My final connections piece is out - I have solved two big questions within the world of wrestling through mathematics: Why landing in the middle of the ring is the safest place, and whether the draft has limitations.
I hope you will find time to read this, as this article is one I am really proud of…
