Author Information

The late Jerome “New Jack” Young started his career in wrestling on a whim. He then plunged into sports entertainment for over a quarter century, winning multiple titles in a career that took him all over the country, his greatest success coming in both singles and tag team action in Extreme Championship Wrestling for much of the 1990s. He lived in Greensboro, North Carolina. An award-winning journalist and lifelong wrestling fan, Jason Norman teaches college English in southeastern Virginia.
