BOB EVANS
"Brutal" Bob was born on September 3rd, 1972 in
Swansea, Massachusetts. Evans is one of the best on the mic in
NECW. A match between the Indians and Japanese is
what got him hooked on wrestling, "I saw Jay and Jules
Strongbow beat Mr. Fuji and Mr. Saito for the tag team
titles. I saw the people go nuts and I started
watching."
Like most NECW stars, a Wrestlemania memory is among his
favorite. In this instance it was all the hype leading up
to Wrestlemania 3 and the 93,000 fans at the Pontiac Silverdome.
Gino Caruso started tutoring Evans in New Bedford, MA from
1992-1993. Jeff "Bruiser" Costa took over from
there. He ended up on the losing end of his first pro match
in an old factory building in New Bedford on April 4th,
1992. His opponent was Bobby Moran.
Evans got the thrill of his career when he wrestled at he
Providence Civic Center for the WWF, a building he watched the
federation in as a kid. Bob feels indy promoters should
take a closer look on who they book on shows, "Seems
like anybody can get on an independent wrestling show these
days."
Thoughts on NECW: "I think NECW could be a force in
the industry as long as they stay the course they're on
now."
