Shark History
Started out as a tadpole called El Piranha, learning the ropes at the HWA in Ohio. Became a big fish in the Midwest and soon took a bite out of the IWA, OVW, MRW, and other regional promotions.

Wrestled for WCW numerous times between 1999 and 2000, and performed at major events including two Brian Pillman Memorials, the Brian Hildebrand benefit, and the ECWA Super 8 tournament. Toured Europe with ASW and WWA promotions in 2002.

Debuted with TNA in 2002 and quickly became a fan favorite. Wrestled for WWE several times in 2003, but always returned to TNA where he has since become a cult figure. Made Ohio's Buckeye Pro Wrestling his home base in late 2003, where he has held the BPW Heavyweight title twice.

Currently appears regularly on TNA television and Pay-per-View events, and continues to wow audiences at independent events worldwide.
