Zade McClurg

Zade McClurg (born December 27, 1985, in Billings, Montana) is a former professional WWE wrestler and is currently working on a new contract with TNA Wrestling.

A 6'1" 220 lb. wrestler, Zade wrestled as a child but not in high school or college. It wasn't until being spotted in Hollywood, California, where he was asked about the business by agent Anjela Ivanova, that he thought he would give the sport another shot, but in the "entertainment" aspect.

McClurg appeared on several Monday Night Raw events from 2006-2007 and wrestled in the opening match of Wrestlemania 20, where he was defeated by Triple H.

Along with wrestling Zade has tried his hand in the performing arts specific to ballet. McClurg is a well known dancer in the Seattle Ballet Company, where he is currently the lead dancer. McClurg's interest in ballet has stemmed from childhood prompting him to enroll in Julliard School of Dance, where he graduated in May 2008 with a degree in Interpretive Dance.

When asked why he lost interest in wrestling after his formative years, he replied "hey, dude, I wanted to just be left alone...I kinda needed to learn the alphabet and stuff..."

Rumor has it Zade is running for govenor of Mt. on the Libertarian ticket
