Vince Verhei
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Vince Verhei (born October 10, 1975 in Seattle, Washington) is a former professional wrestler and a contributor to Figure Four Weekly, a newsletter that has covered the world of professional wrestling since 1995. Figure Four Weekly (commonly abbreviated F4W or F4W~!) is widely regarded as the funniest of the major wrestling newsletters.
Verhei is known best for his Bryan's Friend Vince's Tape Reviews which appears in the Figure Four Weekly newsletter, where he reviews video tapes and DVDs of wrestling matches. In June 2005, Verhei started contributing in audio updates on Figure Four Weekly Online, a subscription website for the F4W newsletter. Two or three times a week, Verhei, alongside editor Bryan Alvarez, produce an internet audio show, The Bryan and Vinny show, where the pair review professional wrestling and MMA programming, in an observational comedic style similar to that found in the newsletter, often interspersed with the awkward silences that have become Verhei's trademark.
Prior to writing tape reviews, Verhei wrestled independently in the Pacific North West, under the names Vinny V and Shoulders Torelli.
In September of 2006, Verhei made his return to the ring against his co-host, Bryan Alvarez.
