A year later, Mike made his debut on World Championship Wrestling (WCW) where he was affectionately known as "Above Average" Mike Sanders. He went on to become a one time cruiser-weight champion, WCW commissioner and leader of The Natural Born Thrillers. After his pro wrestling days, he pursued his love of being a stand-up comedian headlining comedy clubs throughout the US. Michael's passion to entertain did not stop there.
