Terkay’s extraordinary collegiate record speaks for itself. With 71 victories and only a single loss at North Carolina State University, Terkay is a three-time All-American and the 1993 NCAA Division I National Heavyweight Champion. The formidable Terkay also took second place in the 1992 NCAA championship to one of his biggest rivals: future Olympic Gold Medalist, Kurt Angle. Terkay is a hybrid wrestler whose highly physical technique relies on punishing body blows and palm strikes, as well as a wealth of painful submission holds that weaken his opponents. A decorated amateur wrestler and lethal kickboxer, Terkay is also proficient in Mixed Martial Arts. The international grappler has wrestled in Japan and Southeast Asia where he became adept in the Muay Thai fighting style. Terkay brought his undefeated record into ECW in November. He clearly has the potential to be unstoppable in the Land of the Extreme. |
