Former WCC student realizes dream, becomes pro wrestler By BRAD JORDAN Dennis Cain, 23, former WCC college transfer student and "Campus Voice" reporter, is trying to realize a childhood dream of becoming a professional wrestler. Cain attended WCC in 1990 and 1991; then the high school wrestling champ and 4-year body builder decided it was time to pursue his dream. He went to Charlotte, NC, where he graduated from the professional wrestling school, Indian Trails Wrestling Academy. 1993 - WCC CAMPUS VOICE 7 Dennis Cain PHOTQ Brad Jordan There he met Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat without whose advice' and confidence he would have never gone on to- wrestle professionally, he said. On December 2, Cain organized a benefit wrestling match to raise money for a friend's child that had recently undergone a bone marrow procedure for leukemia. The Eric Outlaw Wrestling Benefit, or "Mount Olive Mayhem" as Cain called it, was held in the Mount Olive Armory. The event, which started at 8:00 p.m., featured Ivan and Vladimir Koloff, Wahoo McDaniels, and several other wrestlers including two females. In their match against Ivan and Vladimir Koloff, Cain and his partner Wahoo McDaniels defeated the Russian tag team. Cain, who expected 200 people to attend, was disappointed that only half that number showed. Proceeds also did not cover the costs of renting the armory, leaving Cain personally responsible for the losses. Cain, a graduate of Southern Wayne High School, said he will return to college one day, but for now he has other things on his mind as he continues to dream of a future in the world of profes sional wrestling.
