John Zhilone

John Zhilone is a former WCSF wrestler and General Manager. He had runs as both a heel and a face, but is primarily remembered for his upset of Chris Cameron to capture the WCSF World Championship and his subsequent heel turn.

Career
John Zhilone started his WCSF career as a lowly jobber on Mayhem, losing his first ever match to The Executioner in less than one minute. However, he soon began working his way up the ranks, coming extremely close to beating Chris Cameron for the WCSF World Championship on one occasion and finally defeating him on another.

Along his way to the top of the company, Zhilone had become a fan favorite because of his "underdog" status. Upon his capture of the championship, though, Zhilone became brash and arrogant and soured his reputation in the WCSF locker room. One of the men he rubbed the wrong way was Mitchell Tiday, who began feuding with Zhilone for the title. Zhilone successfully retained his title twice, but was unable to do so upon meeting Jason Williams.

After losing his championship, Zhilone disappeared from WCSF programming until late 2006, when he returned as the General Manager for WCSF Unleashed (which later became known as WCSF Rampage) after the brand split. He played a heel role as GM all the way through his dismissal from the company in 2009 after the WCSF Steroid Scandal.

Zhilone has not been seen on WCSF programming since his dismissal, but with the recent return The Executioner, who was also fired due to the scandal, it appears that the WCSF may be willing to make amends with those that were faulted. Zhilone is currently eligible for the WCSF Hall of Fame, but has not yet received the necessary amount of votes for induction.
