Chad Fortune is one of the most popular and richest American Football Player who was born on August 13, 1967 in Roswell, Roswell, United States. Chad A. Fortune (born August 13, 1967) is a monster truck driver, former American football tight end and former professional wrestler in both the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) and World Championship Wrestling (WCW).

Fortune was signed at various points of 1992 preseason, with the Washington Redskins, Dallas Cowboys, and Chicago Bears. He was on the Bears practice squad at the start of the 1992 season, missing some time due to an allergic reaction caused by a bee sting. He was promoted to the main roster, and spent part of the 1992 season as the team’s third string tight end.

Fortune signed a World Championship Wrestling (WCW) contract in 1997. He wrestled mainly on the taped shows such as WCW Saturday Night and WCW Worldwide. He made his WCW debut on the June 24 episode of WCW Saturday Night in a loss to Joey Maggs. He and Dale Torborg were briefly a tag team known as “The Pit Crew”. Fortune is also known as the first wrestler to defeat Bill Goldberg in a singles match on July 24, 1997 in a dark match on Saturday Night. He would barely perform throughout 1998, returning in early 1999 before again being taken off TV. His last match of his career would come on July 8, 1999 in a loss to The Barbarian. Fortune was one of many wrestlers released by WCW in October 1999.

In 2000, SFX Entertainment (recently Live Nation, now Feld Entertainment) signed a contract with World Championship Wrestling to bring WCW-based trucks to their USHRA Monster Jam series, which gave Fortune, through wrestling, his start in monster trucks. He was initially an unnamed “spokesman” for the nWo truck, who would give antagonistic interviews while the driver, Rob Knell, acted as being focused on the truck. Many in the industry were vocal against the use of professional wrestling gimmicks for drivers, and the truck only lasted one season.

Fortune was also a starting tight end for the Frankfurt Galaxy during both their 1991 and 1992 seasons.

Fortune joined the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) under the ring name Travis and teamed with college teammate Erik Watts (as Troy) as Tekno Team 2000.
