  1. I converted to Zoroastrianism explicitly because of what Aaron Brooks said.
  2. But Safe sport ignores other more serious things.
  3. Very presumptuous of you to think that. Either way Wesley is not a good guy.
  4. I have an undergrad degree in geography. So I have some ideas about these things.
  5. The name was officially changed.
  6. Being indigenous just means you have a family lineage that can be documented and enough of your parentage is indigenous or native or whatever. A coach I know one of his parents is half native of some tribe, so because of that he's an enrolled tribal member who gets certain benefits. As far as I know he's never lived on a reservation or really done anything with the tribal community besides become an enrolled member. So I assume that Wesley is in a similar boat, he has some familial connections and claims that. Then again the hall of fame does say "self identity" so maybe they've never asked him to prove it or the records that prove it got lost or the building they were in burned down.
  7. I don't think he's claiming to be from Cabo Verde, not Cape Verde. He got citizenship by descent. Just like how Myles Amine isn't from San Marino, or Gennady Tulbea isn't from Monaco.
  8. That's what narcissists do.
  9. 2 sock puppets from August Wesley today? It sounds like he's learning from Eve Berrington after all.
  10. I wasn't surprised. Overseas a lot of people do things they wouldn't normally do because there's nobody around to watch or see. Nobody is immune, because at some point everyone is going to do something. Whether that's buy a good time, get drunk, or do something else.
  11. Yeah I mean the story that several people said was that UWW gave him a bunch of money to grow wrestling and establish a club system but he just used it on himself and his son.
  12. A few different people have told me similar things. There are a few different "official" federations, and he's in charge of the one that used to be the main one, but the Olympic committee for Cabo Verde or something found that the money he was given to fund clubs was used to jet him and his son around first class for a few years so they could act like big shots. I know that Leigh Jaynes is in charge of or working with a rival organization to his, or something to that effect. She was apparently supposed to rep Cabo Verde at one point but Wesley actually got them to hold up her credentials because he thought it would jeopardize him getting an Olympic quota if she was around because it would likely have gone to her since she has better wrestling credentials. I've heard from a few different people he's being investigated for various frauds, and that Cabo Verde might prosecute him for stealing money from the federation. Either way he's not a good guy.
  13. I know of several people who have kept their overseas exploits fairly quiet.
  14. Before he discovered he was eligible to wrestle for Cabo Verde he was named coach here. https://victorysportsnetwork.com/2021/10/15/wesley-named-head-wrestling-coach-at-health-sciences-pharmacy/ It lasted about 2 weeks before they fired him because of his shady past. He never coached there officially other than the press release.
