“Hollywood” Joe Williamson
Owner/Lead Writer

“Hollywood” Joe Williamson is considered a miracle. He was only given less than a week to live before he was born. He was born with Congenital Heart Disease, his liver outside of his body, and club feet. Through all his health struggles and surgeries, he found a love and passion for sports and professional wrestling. He competed in bowling growing up and presently competes in cornhole. Joe found his love for writing during his time at Wayland Union High School. He took three years of journalism in high school where he had his own column and ran the newspaper website. He then attended Kalamazoo Valley Community College for three years where he took many classes in Communications and Writing.

Joe founded Hollywood’s World of Sports in 2004 and began writing regularly in 2005. His first love, which is professional wrestling, was the focus for the first couple of years. He then expanded into other sports, where he wanted to cover different topics and offer a different perspective that you won’t find anywhere. Hollywood’s World of Sports is a place for the people to talk about sports and pro wrestling without politics and other drama non-related to what goes on during the sporting events. This is a safe space where bullying, harassment and hate speech is not tolerated. Joe has always been devoted to free speech and allowing people to express themselves. We hope you enjoy the content and discussions that take place on Hollywood’s World of Sports and its social media platforms.
