[edit] Wrestling Career

Trained by Johnny Rodz, Puccio began his wrestling career in 1989 and worked for various northeast U.S. independent promotions for virtually his entire career.[1] He frequently teamed with his brother, Tony. They originally called themselves The Undertakers before changing their team name in the early 1990s to Double Trouble, ostensibly to avoid any confusion with the more prolific WWF star The Undertaker.

Puccio worked briefly for Extreme Championship Wrestling in 1995, losing matches to Mikey Whipwreck and Hack Meyers[2].

Occasionally, Puccio wrestles under his real name.
