Adam's Bio

Adam Testa is a 25-year-old journalist from Southern Illinois. He's in the process of updating this bio and will finish it later. Did he mention he's a procrastinator?

"Vega shouldn't have been canned tho from what i've heard
he was pretty good in the back"

But what trumps the two AOTD victories, by far, was being mentioned and having an article linked in the Oct. 8 official Ring of Honor newswire. For those of you who missed it, here's what it said:
"October 8th: Tyler Black is primed and ready to return to action this weekend in Collinsville and Indianapolis, and recently did an interview with Adam Testa of the Wrestling Daily. In the piece, Black talks about a variety of subjects, most notably his neck injury and subsequent surgery, as well as being in a position to make a mark in a main event role. Check out the piece at http://thewrestlingdaily.com/?p=2611. Can Tyler take that next step, get his hands on Austin Aries, and solidify his place at the forefront of ROH?"

What, did you expect me to say something like, "Oh I hate you and your site!" or something? No, its a big milestone in your life and journalism career to get to talk to wrestlers, especially a guy like Black. I am a big fan of the guy, and any interview to learn more about him is good to see.

Never been a fan of Hero's in ring work, but he can work a mic though. Should be an "interesting" interview.

Lol, congrats on getting the interview with Black, Adam. I also read the article, which was well done.

I'm not very active on here, just every now and then, to talk with Shane, Justin, and a few others, I just don't care anymore, I go straight to profiles to check for new articles, cause the wrestling front page is normally filled with garbage. It's pathetic really.

I am pretty sure that I have told you this before, but here it goes again, I like you, and respect you, and therefore have no reason to shoot you in the face. As hard as i've tried, however, to keep him at bay, violent Dub keeps getting out of his cage, a lot of these morons around here are really goddammed lucky they don't know me in real life, they wouldn't be living very long. Glad TWD is doing well, you guys just keep doing what you do.

Hi Adam, how are you?

I decided to enter the "Greatest Impact" series, so I hope you have time to weigh in.

In the history of professional wrestling, there have been dozens of shining stars. Though Jerry Lawler’s might not shine the brightest, his unselfishness gives him the largest impact of any wrestler in history:

Take a look and see what you think!

Well, you still have another 6 or 7 hours until its due. But, if you can't get it done, then that cool. But dude, Pacman? I don't even think he wrestled while in TNA, Killings did most of the work. I believe it was because the Titans said he could get hurt or something. Weird time. But, I can't say he made the biggest in the history of pro-wrestling. I hope to God it was going to be a comedic piece.
