MTV2 and MTVU are currently airing a news brief piece on video game references in pro wrestling. It mentions ROH star Jimmy Jacobs (who uses the Contra Code as a finisher), Michigan indy wrestler "GameBoy" Max Morrison (who teams with "The HYPE" Jimmy Shalwin in Michigan's Hybrid Pro Wrestling as a video game loving duo, Popular Electronics) as well as CHIKARA's Player Uno and Create-A-Wrestler (now competing as Moscow).
A longer, online article version of the piece can be found at https://multiplayerblog.mtv.com/2007/08/29/filed-at-mtv-news-pro-wrestlers-who-use-the-contra-code-and-the-power-glove-in-the-ring-really/ .
