Alex Wright Career

Professional wrestling career

Alex was coached by his father, Steve Wright, a British professional wrestler. When he was sixteen years old, he wrestled in Germany for the first time in 1991. During his youth, he wrestled in his hometown and later worked in Japan.

When WCW toured through Germany in mid-1994, Wright was discovered by World Championship Wrestling (WCW). He signed a WCW time Warner, the company's parent company, and went through additional training at the WCW Power Plant. On the September 3rd edition of Saturday Night, Wright made his WCW debut by defeating Brady Boone on his first appearance. Alex Wright, who was born as a babyface, competed as "Das Wunderkind" Alex Wright. Dominic Glynn's entrance song ("Warped Mind") was of the techno style, and he performed regularly in several American and German dance clubs at the time, and he's often danced as he walked to the ring or later joined the ring. Jean-Paul Levesque, who fought at Starrcade in December in both men's pay-per-view debuts, was his first rivalry. Wright went undefeated in matches against many WCW legends, including Bobby Eaton in January 1995 at Clash of the Champions XXX and Paul Roma at SuperBrawl V in February '95. Roma's deal was later ended by WCW as a result of his unbridled appearance and refusal to order Wright to be called off during the match. Wright and Disco Inferno, another wrestler who performed or appeared in the ring, and Disco Inferno, another wrestler from or on his way to the ring, represented modern dance and song, and Disco Inferno depicting older styles. In this series, Wright will dominate all of the games.

On an episode of WCW Saturday Night, Wright wrestled Arn Anderson for the WCW World Television Championship, defeating Anderson by DQ. A rematch was scheduled for Slamboree, the next pay-per-view tournament, where Wright suffered his first defeat.

Wright competed in NJPW's Best of the Super Juniors and finished third in the tournament thanks to WCW's collaboration with New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW). He began wrestling against fellow cruiserweight and babyface Brian Pillman, whom he defeated in the first round at The Great American Bash. Wright and Marcus Bagwell joined Dick Slater and Bunkhouse Buck in a losing effort on the July 16 edition of the Main Event before Bash at the Beach. In August at Battle of the Champions XXI, he had interactions with other up-and-coming WCW stars, including Diamond Dallas Page. Wright fought Sabu on September 1995. Sabu won the match but went on to assault Wright, even throwing him across a table. Referee Nick Patrick reversed his decision, disqualifying Sabu for his violence and allowing Wright the victory. Wright had several matches against Eddie Guerrero, including one on The Main Event, which culminated in a draw. Wright also played against Dean Malenko in '95 and '96.' Malenko defeated Wright by pinfall in January 1996 at Battle of the Champions XXIII.

Wright competed in the first-ever three-man match royal for the vacant World Heavyweight Championship, which was won by Randy Savage. In a World Cup of Wrestling, the WCW wrestlers met NJPW wrestlers at Starrcade. Wright fought against Koji Kanemoto of NJPW (for the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship, though WCW never announced it as such), but Kanemoto lost the match to Kanemoto. Wright then began a feud with Dick Slater, who lost in a singles dark match at Uncensored. Wright was coerced by WCW to be teamed with his wrestling and dancing nemesis Disco Inferno in a tag team match against Slater and Eaton at Slamboree. Disco was pinned to Wright and Disco when Disco was blocked. Antonio Inoki, a well-known Japanese wrestler, helped put together the World Wrestling Peace Festival, which was held in Los Angeles in June. On that day, Wright wrestled and lost to Chris Benoit. Wright defeated Bobby Eaton in a rematch on the August 10 version of Saturday Night that aired immediately before Hog Wild.

Wright competed in a three-ring, 60-man tournament royal, with the winner getting a shot at the World Heavyweight Championship. The Giant won the royal battle. Wright lost to Masa Chono in January 97 on Clash of the Champions XXIV, who had recently returned to the United States and joined the nWo.

Wright and other midcarders participated in several tag team matches, mainly on the losing team. Wright partnered with Ice Train against Konan and Hugh Morrus of the Dungeon of Doom in a match in which Wright openly predicted the return of his dance routine that he had temporarily shelved as a babyface and clashing with Train's boss Teddy Long during the match. Wright said he would be unable to recover after suffering a sudden unexplainable knee injury, argued adamantly, and then pulled Long and then dropped the Ice Train, causing him to miss the game by submission. Wright was then pushed to victory in the Cruiserweight Championship for the remainder of 1997, which culminated in his first championship gold. After a successful title defense against Jericho at Road Wild, Wright and Jericho fought together, the pair fell in the title to Jericho on Saturday Night, before he lost the title to Jericho. However, five days later, he defeated ltimo Dragón in the Clash of the Champions XXV to win the World Television Championship, beating him on August 21. On an episode on Nitro, Wright was able to successfully defend the TV show against Lord Steven Regal.

In a title rematch against ltimo Dragón that was a rematch before losing the title to Disco Inferno on September 22. Wright made a good title defense at Fall Brawl. After McMichael's valet Debra left him and became Wright's valet, Wright feuded with Steve McMichael. Wright ordered the war to erupt, and in the enmity, she beat McMichael at Halloween Havoc, with the help of Goldberg, who slashed Wright at the Wright postmatch. McMichael defeated Goldberg prior to their match, and Wright was practically pulled to the ring by Debra to face McMichael next month, but this time they lost.

Wright will continue to be handled by Debra for a short time. Debra will often try to illegally intervene in matches to help him win, but the scheme would usually backfire, causing Wright to lose. After a string of losses that Wright attributed to, Wright called him to Debra, he cut ties with the organization.

Wright would then begin to patch up with former Disco Inferno as they started collaborating in 1998 to form the Dancing Fools, which also featured Japanese wrestler Tokyo Magnum in the role of a tag team that attempted to imitate their dancing styles. During The Public Enemy (Johnny Grunge and Rocco Rock), Wright and Inferno fought, resulting in a loss to Grunge and Rocco at Road Wild. Wright continued on to argue that he was the best WCW wrestler to come out of Europe. On the other hand, the British Bulldog disputed Wright's proclamation, resulting in a feud between Wright and Inferno against Bulldog and Jim Neidhart. The feud came to an end at Fall Brawl, where the Dancing Fools lost to Bulldog and Neidhart. Wright and Inferno broke apart and started as singles again after suffering with losses.

Because Finlay was blamed for ending his father's career, Wright feuded with another European wrestler, Fit Finlay. Wright beat Finlay at Halloween Havoc, Finlay's revenge from Finlay.

Wright participated in the 60-man World War III version of World War III, with Kevin Nash winning the battle royal this year.

Wright was kept off WCW television for a lengthy period of time until May, when Wright came up with his own idea for a gimmick. Wright's first commercial spots on WCW television introduced him as a surprising new Rivethead-style character named Berlyn (an intentional misspelling of Berlin, Wright's home country Germany), with a black Mohawk and goatee replacing his blond hair. He was entirely black with a long trench coat and a stumbling refusal to speak English. He spoke through an interpreter, Uta Ludendorff, and was led into the ring by a large wrestler named The Wall. The advertisements fell into the aftermath of the Columbine school shooting, which put WCW's efforts into jeopardy. Sensing Berlyn's accidental appearances of clothing, the teenage killers were postponed, WCW delayed the debut of Berlyn for many months. During his debut on Nitro on August 30, he quickly mocked Americans, de naming the role as a heel.

Wright was scheduled to face Buff Bagwell at Fall Brawl right after his debut, but the match did not take place. Although WCW claimed that Bagwell had missed his flight, Bagwell was in the arena but not keen to lose. As Duggan no-sold all of Wright's charges and did not cooperate in the ring, WCW replaced Bagwell with Hacksaw Jim Duggan, and Wright's problems remained. On the next night's Nitro, Berlyn wrestled and defeated Bagwell. Berlyn retaliated against Scott Armstrong and began a feud with Brad Armstrong shortly after. Brad Armstrong (as Berlyn) and Alex (as Berlyn) clashed at Halloween Havoc, which Berlyn lost. Berlyn and The Wall attacked Armstrong after the match. Despite Berlyn's revival after the fiasco involving Duggan and Bagwell, his gimmick was unpopular. WCW brought The Wall a singles push, leaving Wright to flounder in the mid-card.

On the October 25 edition of Nitro, it was announced that a tournament would be held for the vacant World Heavyweight Championship, and that the finals would be held in Mayhem. Berlyn participated in the tournament but lost his first round match to Vampiro on the following edition of Nitro. Berlyn began a small feud with Vampiro, costing him his second round match against Buff Bagwell. After the Wall turned on Berlyn, Vampiro defeated Berlyn in a Dog Collar match at Mayhem. Berlyn then feuded with the Wall before being banned from WCW television once more.

Wright returned to wrestling under his real name on the September 27, 2000, edition of Thunder, which was a pun on then-famous R&B singer Sisqó) and Konnan. Wright aided Disqo in gaining victory, and the Boogie Knights reunited as the Boogie Knights. Wright had gone completely bald, but he had returned to his old dancing mannerisms. When the Boogie Knights began a feud with The Filthy Animals, they also feuded with two members of The Natural Born Thrillers (Sean O'Hargaire and Mark Jindrak), who were the World Tag Team Champions at the time. The three teams competed in a triangle match at Halloween Havoc, but O'Haire and Jindrak won the match. On November 16, Disqo and Wright would then proceed to win the World Tag Team Championship from O'Haire and Jindrak at Millennium Germany. However, four days later, Nitro's Disqo was out due to an accident, Wright and replacement Elix Skipper lost the titles to Chuck Palumbo and Shawn Stasiak, two other Natural Born Thrillers.

Wright then took on BroniK (Brian Adams and Bryan Clark) as his bodyguards to depose other cruiserweights. In a 3-on-2 handicap match at Mayhem, Wright, and KroniK faced Billy Kidman and Rey Misterio, Jr. However, KroniK stalled Wright after the 15 minutes they were paid for expired, resulting in his being pinned. Disqo recovered from his injury, and the Boogie Knights' gimmick didn't survive until the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) acquired WCW in March 2001. Wright was still under AOL Time Warner as his deal was not bought out by the WWF.

Wright was kicked out of the spotlight after WCW's folding, and he hasn't appeared on American television since then. In an interview, Wright said that WWE would not sign him because he was one of the few people working with AOL Time Warner at the time. He also stated that he took a break from wrestling because he was not happy with the backstage dramas in WCW at the time. Wright has stayed away from regular active competition in the years after, only wrestling on rare occasions for German wrestling promotions NAWA and GWP. In Nuremberg, Germany, he began "The Wright Stuff" as a banker and fitness instructor.

In 2009, he began his own wrestling company, New European Championship Wrestling (NEW).

Even though Wright predicts that the UK economy will quickly fall into recession, he does not believe that this will necessarily drag down the UK stock market. Indeed, he claims that in the case of instability, fund managers and investors have a slew of opportunities to select bargain stocks that might be long-term investments. His argument is that the UK stock market, where the trust is heavily invested, is undervalued both historically and in comparison to other markets.

A word that denotes derring-dooes particular situations. The message seems to be that investors in such funds should be prepared for excitement, not just for setbacks, but also for victories as the managers uncover hidden treasures. However, those looking for such opportunities should be aware that special situations are more of a brand rather than a mission statement. There is no licence to thrill. This may have come as a surprise to thousands of current buyers in such funds, some of whom may have assumed that they were simply supporting unloved and anonymous smaller and medium-sized businesses.
