John Williams is a American professional wrestler better known as Ian Rotten. He has wrestled in GWF, ECW, and his own IWA: Mid-South.

Contents

Ian Rotten wrestled in the GWF and on various small Indy groups in the US, usually teaming with his kayfabe "brother", Axl Rotten. They entered Extreme Championship Wrestling in 1994, and in 1995 they lost a tag match against The Pitbulls, where the losing team could never team up again. For the first six months of 1995, Ian and Axl Rotten engaged in what was probably ECW's bloodiest ever feud, which culminated in a Taipei Death Match, which saw both men tape their fists, and then glue broken glass onto their taped fists.

Ian left ECW in late 1995, and in late 1996 he formed his own promotion, Independent Wrestling Association Mid-South.

Rotten wrestled his retirement match at IWA Mid-South's 499th event, against "his best trainee" Mickie Knuckles, in Plainfield, Indiana on December 7, 2007.
