Tommy Cairo is one of the most popular and richest Wrestler who was born on February 19, 1958 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States. Thomas “Tommy” Cairo (born on 19 February 1958) is an American professional wrestler who retired. Perhaps his most well-known is for his fight in the 1994 feud with The Sandman in Extreme Championship Wrestling. He was previously owner of New Jersey’s Force One Pro Wrestling promotion and the school.

In the late spring of 1994 The Sandman had to be “blinded” after a lit smoking cigarette was thrust into his eye in the “I Quit” match with Tommy Dreamer. The Sandman later claimed his retirement was inevitable due to this, and Dreamer reacting by dedicating the rest of his life in support of The Sandman. Cairo began to mock The Sandman and resulted in Dreamer severely beating him during the match of the 5th of November 1994 during the November To Remember 1994. In The Sandman’s retirement celebration, The Sandman reconciled with Peaches (Woman was a stranger to him following his blinding) prior to revealing that he wasn’t actually blind and was instead battling Dreamer. The Sandman then revealed how the “blinding” had been an elaborate trick devised to trick Dreamer into causing harm to Cairo in his name.

Cairo left ECW in the mid-1990s. On June 24, 1995 in Williamstown, New Jersey, Cairo defeated Devon Storm in the finals of a tournament for the vacant NWA North American Heavyweight Championship. He was stripped of the title in 1996 after no-showing a defense, due to the birth of his first child. Between 1996 and 1997 Cairo held the Ultimate Championship Wrestling North American Heavyweight Championship, he wrestled in various matches with the likes of Chris Chavis aka “Tatanka”, Bruce Hart, Jim Neidhart, Falcon Coperis. Between 1998 and 2000, Cairo operated the Outlaws of Wrestling promotion in Atlantic City, New Jersey. In the same time period, he appeared with USA Pro Wrestling, winning both the Heavyweight and North American championships.

In September 2001, Cairo retired from professional wrestling and began working as an electrician. In 2007, Cairo returned to wrestling when he, former wrestling radio host Phil Varlese, and wrestlers The White Lotus (Pat Di Giacomo), and Diego DeMarco (James Pilman) opened a professional wrestling school and promotion in the Northeastern United States known as Force One Pro Wrestling. Force One Pro Wrestling held its inaugural event, “Pledge of Allegiance”, on May 19, 2007, in Egg Harbor City, New Jersey, with Cairo, (in his capacity as commissioner) crowning Heavyweight Champion Breaker Morant and Junior Heavyweight Champion White Lotus. In late 2009, Cairo resigned from Force One Pro Wrestling as well, turning the promotion over to Diego DeMarco (James Pilman) & former student turned wrestler Johnny Calzone (John Short), who took the promotion in a different direction, renaming the promotion Force 1 Pro, who ran shows in the same venues as the old Force One. Cairo returned to the business in 2011 with Coastal Pro Wrestling (again with former partner Phil Varlese, and with former NWA official Fred “Richards” Rubenstein). Coastal signed on as a National Wrestling Allince affiliate, and eventually a licensee, but broke away a year later due to differences with the ownership of the NWA. Cairo eventually split from Coastal after a 2-year run, and ran several shows under the Global 1 Pro Wrestling banner, before leaving the wrestling business again in 2013.

The year 1993 was the time Cairo took part in several wrestling matches together with The Japanese UWF International promotional.
