The Drop Zone was the site of a rough and tumble encounter with professional wrestlers during the Ringside Salute II. Members of the 386th Air Expeditionary Wing had the pleasure of meeting five professional wrestlers last week for a question and answer session followed by an autograph meet and greet. The Ringside Salute II event featured professional wrestlers Chris Melendez, Shane “Hurricane” Helms, Melina Nava, Mr. Anderson, and Scotty 2 Hotty.
