It was a strange sight, even for the "sport" of professional wrestling.

A wrestler holding a microphone faced an Appalachian crowd before a match and began unleashing a torrent of insults, the nature of which seemed out of place at a pro wrestling tournament.

"I understand now why you all identify with country music. It's slow and it's simple and it's boring, just like each and every one of you."

As the crowd grew increasing hostile, the wrestler's remarks became more politically-tinged.

"You know what, I think Bernie Sanders would make a great secretary of state."

"I want to exchange your bullets for bullet points. Bullet points of knowledge."

He even called Donald Trump a "con man." The crowd exploded in jeers. "Shut up," someone yelled.

Strange, indeed. But then, the muscular man's shirt read, "Not My President."

Meet the wrestler who goes by the name "Progressive Liberal" Dan Richards, the most hated character in Kentucky's Appalachian Mountain Wrestling (AMW) program, a small professional wrestling circuit.
