Tek is an American backyard wrestler who competes in 2KW and Elite Wrestling Association. He began wrestling around 2001 in a small federation known as UCW. However, he is best viewed for his days in becoming a member of upscale backyard wrestling federation United Wrestling Alliance (UWA). Tek is observed as one of the best lightweight wrestlers in the practice, wrestling in high profile bouts with any size competitors, even pursuing pro championship belts and is innovative with his catchphrase, "who wants to go swimming", a preceding to his patented Cannonball signature move. In 2009, Tek was inducted into the GBYWN Hall of Fame.

Backyard wrestling tenure/history

UCW (2001-2002)

On April 28, 2001 in Clark, New Jersey, Tek debuted in the backyard wrestling world taking on Savior as his inaugural opponent during what was the birth of a small New Jersey federation, UCW, which held matches on a mattress. Soon Shawn "Damage" McNelis and Enigma aligned with the diminitive roster that be. Futhermroe, UCW had gradually discovered a federation in Cramford called CXW, merging with it under an agreement which made CXW completely adopt into UCW.

Up to 2002, the federation succeeded well and Tek most highlighted time was competing in a Buried Alive and Casket Match with Vincent Valentine. That same year, a bitter strife between Tek and Savior held up construction that required of the ring and ultimately placed UCW into extinction.

United Wrestling Alliance (2002-2005)

Debut and New Reality (2003)

Almost conclusive his backyard tenure was over, Tek later stumbled across 1uwa.com in the midst of research online and after contacting the federation United Wrestling Alliance (UWA), him along with Vincent Valentine and Enigma were offered "contracts" by owner Vince Regal into the organization. In October 2002, Tek wrestled his debut match against Enigma for a successful victory. An invasion angle quickly developed briefly pushing Tek into semi-main event status by the end of the year.

Around the beginning of the 2003 season while not quite received by UWA fans, Tek then formed a team with Enigma known as The New Reality. At Brawl for it All in March, they defeated The Winants to become the UWA Tag Team Champions. The duo moved through the tag team ranks for awhile for the first half of the year. At UWA's flagship event, Armageddon IV, just as New Reality were within reach of retaining the championships in a TLC match, Enigma turned on Tek resulting in them losing the championships. The feud brewed and entered the Crossroads of Destiny supercard, where they competed in round one of the 4th annual Owen Hart Memorial Tournament which Tek won.

Ultra Violent Movement (2003)

Tek was accosted by Acejack about their match against Arkum and Enigma on a Meltdown episode, who sought to explain to him the meaning of ultraviolent brutality since he was his partner. Although Tek was comedic with gruesome intentions as well as a jocular individual, Acejack invested his impression and both became known as the Ultra Violent Movement. The Movement defeated Arkum and Enigma in a tag team contest after a controversial double pinfall.

Acejack, the psychologically twisted mouthpiece of UVM, envisioned a frivolous and comedic upstarter in Tek as a younger brother to coach, and challenged him to an Ultraviolent Movement "Initiation" match. After Tek took Acejack to the limit, Acejack demanded Tek lay down for the pinfall which went abided and officially earned Tek his spot in their alliance. UVM tiraded the roster and UWA Owner, Vince Regal for weeks at hand. With Tek's all-or-nothing risk taking coupled with his bastardized role in the UVM compelled him to break away from the stable pressing on to become a heavy fan favorite. He ended the year with a Last Breath match against Archadia. Also throughout the year, Tek had acquired pro training and competed in matches for pro wrestling championships.

Alliance and Feud with Dr.John Bowes and other quests (2004)

Tek wrestled Archadia, Syrius, and Acejack into the 2004 season. Mid-season, he formed a team with Dr. John Bowes and came up short in pursuits of the UWA Tag Team Championship which ultimately turned Bowes against Tek as a result of frustration following a match at UWA Hotter Than Hell. Bowes, for the remainder of the season, persisted in his assaults and defeated Tek in a match at UWA Aggression, however, Tek was triumph a month later at the season finale, UWA Last Breath in a Wheelchair match. On the offseason, he travelled with groups to various backyard wrestling supershows, most notably Pennsylvania's XWA performing against names like Dave Maynard, Fantastic Max and Tommy Flambeau, and also embroiled in further training with Mike Quest, Arkum, Dave Winant and Jay Lethal.

2KW (2008-present)

In July 2008, Tek made his debut in 2KW in an unavailing effort against Scorpion and later lost in a 6-Way Challenge for the 2KW Junior Heavyweight Championship. However, in his matches, his lightweight ability exhibited he could hang on par with many double his size.
