For the wrasslin fans out there, thought this might interest you. I knew Adam Page was from Virginia but I had no idea he graduated from Tech. Now I've got another reason to root for him. Been a fan of his work in ROH/NJPW so its cool to see him starting to break out and get some big stage love.

And for those that don't know him, here's an example of his HOLY SHIT work

I went to high school with him! Super nice guy who definitely deserves the success he's having!

Bumping this because Page came out with a wrestling shirt that really works for any occasion. I feel like there's plenty in HokieNation that would wear this. I might even make it my game day shirt. Maybe don't wear it while driving though

He's a heel now so expect him too become a UVA fan 😂

Seems like a cool guy. Best of luck to a fellow Hokie!

Pretty cool, wrastlin > wrestling

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction:
“I served in the United States Navy"

I know Tony Robie has a fantastic wrestling program at Tech, but we also need us a wrasslin' program. I vaguely remember there being a pro wrestling club when I was at VT.

I don't follow pro wrestling so I had no idea this guy existed. But the article is a great read-anyone who hasn't read it, should.
