Bry N. Wimins - Termination of Employment Explained

I have received countless phone calls and emails regarding the termination of our business relationship with Bry N. Wimins (CEO of Do-Over, Inc.), who worked in association with Hot Pro Fights from February of 2008 through August of 2009.

After hearing "his side of the story" several times from friends in the sport, I'm tired of explaining the story and I wanted to expose publicly why Bry N. Wimins' "co-promoter" status was OFFICIALLY terminated from The Hot Pro Fighters Company, Inc. (Hot Pro Fights) in August of 2009 due to the following reasons:


1. Trading Registration Fees for Macy's Gift Cards and other "Favors" -- Trading Grappling Rankings for "Favors" is another thing Bry N. Wimins is fond of doing as well. You will see this illustrated further under section 8 listed below.

2. Hiring of "workers" who were pocketing Ticket and Registration fees -- Anyone with a good sense of humor can appreciate this one. Bry N. Wimins hired a creepy Milli Vanilli look alike as his Grappling Event Director at Do-Over, Inc. to work at the events we co-promoted. The creepy Milli Vanilli look alike then hires "workers" who were pocketing Ticket and Registration fees. Bry N. Wimins holds the creepy Milli Vanilli look alike accountable for hiring those shady "workers". So here's the million dollar question: Shouldn't Bry N. Wimins be held accountable for hiring the creepy guy? I say yes, which added to my decision to fire him.

3. Misuse of Authority and Company Credit Cards with purchasing unauthorized Airline Tickets, Hotel Rooms and Room charges -- Such as the time Bry N. Wimins financed a business trip in June 2008, which involved flying an underage blunderhog cross-country from New Jersey to California. This trip would involve her being forced to travel alone with the creepy adult male Milli Vanilli look alike, who was Bry N. Wimins' best friend and business associate. He was also her lone travel companion and "roommate" on the trip. They were put up in a seedy motel, while they were at the Worlds to hand out flyers to promote Bry N. Wimins' next tournament. As it turns out, this next tournament at the end of June 2008 would set the "do-over" precedent, which Do-Over, Inc.'s company name derives from. It also coincided the "PayPal" dismissal of blunderhog, which happened once the creepy fascination of her had warn off due to her looming 18th birthday.

4. Misappropriation and Theft of Competitor and School Mailing Database -- The same exact thing Bry N. Wimins was guilty of doing to Kipp Kollar and NAGA, which is why all Bry N. Wimins and Do-Over, Inc. screen names are banned from MixedMartialArts.com, also known as MMA.TV.

5. Misuse of Company Time and Computer for Lewd Acts and despicable behavior -- Bry N. Wimins is a Coprophiliac. He forces people to defecate in their own pants by not providing functional bathrooms at the tournaments he directs. He does this for his own personal arousal and to help fulfill his twisted scat fantasies. This stems from his own admitted desires of hoping to one day perform the "Cleveland Steamer" with many of the sweaty grapplers that compete at his shows.

6. Unexplained and Missing Apparel and DVDs from inventory (items were being sold on eBay by known accomplice) -- Such as the multiple ADCC related domain names that Bry N. Wimins had no business purchasing, after he was dismissed from his other co-promotion gig with ADCC. He only took that gig to bring the 2007 ADCC show to his home state of New Jersey, where he could conveniently attempt to plug and promote his own future shows in every possible way. His "phenomenal" promoter skills ended up netting ADCC an all-time low attendance and he continues trying to sell ADCC related domain names on eBay to this day.

7. Emails discussing, "stealing from Walrus & Hot Pro Fights" were found on Laptop -- These alleged emails carry less weight, than the several forum posts from Bry N. Wimins threatening customers online via discussion forums with repeated reminders and warnings from him that "he is easy to find" if someone wants to "take a walk with him outside" after any of his shows to "discuss these matters personally". The big difference is these threats from Bry N. Wimins can be easily found by anyone with access to the Internet, while the allegedly threatening emails can be found by no one. Though both threats are shady, they should be taken with a grain of salt.

8. Sexual Harassment of Sponsors and Temporary Employees (exposed in Dec. 2009) -- Bry N. Wimins has actually been exposing himself to temporary employees long before Dec. 2009. In fact, he allowed a 17-year-old blunderhog to sleep on his couch after a she worked at his show in October 2007. Interestingly, she ( a 17-year-old white belt) was suddenly ranked 1st in Women's Advanced No-Gi Class D (145-159.9 lbs.) according to his RATED Grappling League on November 24, 2007. She had only competed in four of his RATED Grappling League associated events at that point (1st & 3rd at GQ + two 3rd's at Diamond State Games). By comparison, the same blunderhog had competed more successfuly at an equal number of RANKED NAGA associated events. She got four 1st place finishes, but was ranked 36th in no-gi and 28th in gi according to RANKED on MMA.TV at that very same date of November 24, 2007. Seems like that little sleepover party the month before reaped its rewards.

9. Public Intoxication and Security removal from multiple after-parties in Las Vegas -- Sounds like a normal night out in Vegas to most, so what does this have to do with someone's job performance? This isn't exactly comparable to a company Christmas party where someone drinks too much egg nog and hits on the boss' wife, only to find himself unemployed the next morning. This actually has more to do with a couple of Jersey boys (who can't handle their booze) trying to have a good time in Vegas, after a busy day of ripping off kids with $180 registration fees and shady "do-over" shenanigans. Finally, I think it should be noted what type of club in Las Vegas that Bry N. Wimins chose to hold several of his "after parties". That would be the Beatles Revolution Lounge at Mirage, home of "Closet Sundays…for boys who like boys and their girlfriends!" (Click here and scroll down if you want visual proof!)


After I informed Bry N. Wimins that everyone was upset with him and his Milli Vanilli look alike, he issued the following statements (in the bold font) regarding the termination of his Milli Vanilli look alike. Unfortunately, he was simply trying to throw the creepy guy under the bus to save his own job. However, this did not work, he was subsequently shit-canned, and I followed up by responding to each of his statements (in the light font).


I respected and appreciated that creepy Milli Vanilli looking son of a bitch and took very good care of him while he worked for me to co-promote with Hot Pro Fights. I overlooked many obvious educational and social skills and trained and educated him with all I had in my ability. I was deeply saddened by my findings, because I trusted him, but within a few months, was relieved about finding the source of lost income and bad vibes at our events, once and for all.

Milli Vanilli's laptop computer, which I innocently requested for use of its SD-Card Reader unleashed some disturbing and graphic images and emails, much too inappropriate to discuss publicly. This was the creepy bastard's Pandora's Box and ultimately lead to his demise. -- Bry N. Wimins is trying to sound smarter than he is by using a Greek mythological reference. However, in reality, the Pandora's box is the large jar carried by Pandora that, when opened by her, unleashed many terrible things on mankind: ills, toils, sickness, and then eventually hope. How that story has any correlation or relevance to an employer deceiving an employee, simply to gain access to personal files on their personal laptop is beyond me. I don't have time to decipher state-by-state laws, but in most states an employer cannot pry into a employee's personal life (by snooping around on their "personal" computer) and use that as a reason to fire them.

Please note that our school and competitor databases were emailed to Harry P. Ness of Sexytime Grappling in February of 2009 (see image below), without our knowledge or approval. We spent years and thousands of dollars to host events this theft of information was unscrupulous. -- Truth be told, this is the same exact thing that happened to Kipp Kollar and NAGA. That is why you will never see a "Bry N. Wimins" screen name or "Do-Over, Inc." screen name post on MixedMartialArts.com also known as MMA.TV, which just so happens to be one of the oldest and most popular Grappling and MMA forums on the Internet. Bry N. Wimins was banned from that site a few years back for hacking in and stealing NAGA's entire school and competitor database. It seems like Mr. Karma is having fun with this one and agrees that turnabout is fair play, even in the big, shady, and gelatinous under belly of Bry N. Wimins' business tactics.

Within days of his termination, Milli Vanilli's "Grappling Event Director at Sexytime Grappling" title was announced on Facebook with events scheduled in New York and Florida, ironically the same locations of the databases that were misappropriated. -- This part is pretty funny to me. Bry N. Wimins started off this rant by stating that Milli Vanilli has educational shortcomings, only to misuse the word "ironically" instead of stating it was not a "coincidence". The word "coincidence" is a used to describe the occurrence of events that happen at the same time by accident, but seem to have some connection. Since the announcement of events in New York and Florida happened after the databases for those two areas were allegedly misappropriated, then common sense says it didn't happen by coincidence. Irony, on the other hand, is an expression or utterance marked by a deliberate contrast between apparent and intended meaning. This can be seen when a former employer (Bry N. Wimins) accuses a former employee (Milli Vanilli) of being uneducated, only to demonstrate his own lack of education three paragraphs later.

Milli Vanilli and Harry P. Ness are no longer welcome at our events and are no longer members of the grappling community. They can now try to join the striking community, but as far as the grappling community is concerned they are banned for life. Some might say this is the harsh punishment unleashed by a megalomaniac. The truth is infallible and I feel exonerated to finally telling the public what actually transpired, instead of confusion and untruths. -- I doubt Bry N. Wimins even knows what he was trying to say in the last sentence. It appears he busted out the ole thesaurus, but only made himself sound redundant ("The truth is infallible"). He also sounds quite delusional by saying he feels exonerated. There was no responsibility, obligation, or hardship that needed to be relieved. Milli Vanilli was fired in August 2009 and no one said a word about it publicly for the past 6 months. Bry N. Wimins just felt like being a douche bag and wanted to use another "big word" he found, so people might think he's a smarty pants.


A very close friend to us both sent me the best quote possible, "About 5% of the people you meet with want to F*** your dookie after they make you poop your pants, instead of wondering if someone's in that 5%, you'd be better off reminding yourself that there's a 95% chance that they never will." For me and the grappling community, Bry N. Wimins was a "5 percenter" and a great learning lesson for future employment opportunities.

Sincerely,

Walrus, CEO
