This is a post from SpikeTV's TUF forum, by a member called Heetseaker (could be the same guy who posts here as Heatseeker):

The Ultimate Fighter Forum

He points out that Weems' MMA record on Sherdog includes at least one, and possibly two pro wrestling matches.

St. Louis Wrestling Discussion - Sorry Crimey, but I need to say this...

It appears one of his MMA victories was in a professional wrestling show. Keep in mind, Wayne is a professional wrestler in Illinois, under the name of Nathan Ironside.

"IWAI Granite City 10/21/2006

IWAI – Independent Wrestling Alliance of Illinois

Granite City, IL 10/21/2006

-- "The Natural" Nathan Ironside came out, ranked in Mixed Martial Arts. Nat's got a rather crappy T-shirt, so I declined to purchase one. Sorry. Accompanied by Vixen, who is both pretty and nice [okay, she's a heel, but no worry] {– did I mention punk/Goth?}, Nate took on Tripp Strychnine for the IWAI Television Title. No TV in sight….[sigh]

Anyway, Tripp did well, but shook his booty at Vixen, who swore to get revenge. Nat did some decent stuff and yelled at hecklers to take notes. Since I actually DO take notes, I held up my Daytimer. [I showed Vixen where my notes read "Cheat to Win", and she smiled]. This was a Falls Count Anywhere Match [which includes submissions, BTW]. Brutal match, spilled into the crowd. Nate locked on an armbar and got Tripp to submit [not before Vixen whacked him!!] outside the ring at 9" 33". Nathan Ironside is thus the new IWAI TV Champ."

But... for some reason, this is listed on Sherdog as a legitimate fight.

This isn't a slight towards Wayne, I just wonder if he's aware that they've got a wrestling match listed on his fight finder.

Fight Finder - Wayne Weems's Mixed Martial Arts Statistics

Also, another discovery... Weems's fight the next week against Johnny Wisdom was ALSO in professional wrestling.. Buit it's listed on fight finder as being a legit MMA fight..

Anyone know anything else about this?
