My Take

I have a soft spot for wrestlers like Daniel Hollie. At 191 cm he worked WWE rings from 2003 to 2007 as Danny Basham, then turned up in TNA as Damaja. He was never the marquee name, and that is exactly why he matters to me: the midcard and tag-team grinders are the connective tissue that makes the headline stories land. I picture him as the steady hand who made flashier opponents look good. Now that he is retired, the understated craft of a guy who took bumps for years reads even better. These are the workers I genuinely want to champion.
