"SBK" Shawn Stryker has kept a low-profile since his interview on Entertainment Tonight on October 11th where he discussed with Nancy O'Dell
Exclusively his unceremonious departure from WorldPro Wrestling Federation. O'Dell got the rare interview because of a friendship dating back several years to when she was a co-host on the MDA Labor Day Telethon which SBK was a featured contributing donor up until Jerry Lewis firing last year. In that ET exclusive interview on 10/11/12 the Hall of Fame wrestler teased a pending investment deal where he would head up an upstart wrestling company in 2013.

Shawn Stryker was one such celeb and he broke some news confirming indeed he was in New York City securing the final greenlight investment for a much anticipated wrestling venture set to begin in 2013. No details were provided but the wrestling veteran was in good spirits even playfully headlocking one of the musical performers.
