A former University of Iowa wrestler signs a deal with WWE? Two of our favorite passions colliding in one story? You'd better believe that your friends at BHGP are all over that story, folks. Of course, the Iowa wrestler in question is probably not one that most folks remember -- heavyweight Terrance Jean-Jacques.
If you're scratching your head, don't fret -- Jean-Jacques' time at Iowa was brief. Jean-Jacques, a two-time state champion in Pennsylvania (who went 62-0 (!) in 2011), originally signed to attend Rutgers, but found it to be a bad fit and transferred to Iowa. As a redshirt freshman, Jean-Jacques went 22-6 at Iowa in 2013-14.
