Career
Palumbo began his career in 1998 in smaller, independent wrestling promotions. In October he made his debut for World Championship Wrestling . After he formed a tag team in 2000 that consisted of himself and Shawn Stasiak , he and his partner were allowed to win the WCW World Tag Team Championship . Palumbo and Stasiak won the WCW Tag Team titles two more times before disbanding in January 2001. In the team with Sean O'Haire , Palumbo won the title one more time.
In 2001 he and O'Haire went to WWF and were active there in the SmackDown roster. After O'Haire was sent to the Ohio Valley Wrestling Development League , Palumbo found a new partner in Billy Gunn . On February 21, 2002 he and Gunn were allowed to win the World Tag Team Championship , which they later won again.
In February 2003, Palumbo formed the Full Blooded Italians (FBI) in the WWE, a team that previously existed in Extreme Championship Wrestling . In March 2004 he was sent to the Raw brand, but was used almost exclusively as a jobber in the B-Show Heat . On November 3, 2004, he was released from the WWE.
After being fired, Palumbo went to All Japan Pro Wrestling . After his time there he was also active for the Italian Nu-Wrestling Evolution and World Wrestling Council , before he returned to the WWE in March 2006, but rarely had matches. As of May 2007, Palumbo was then used more and more and was then in a feud program with CM Punk . On June 25, 2008, Palumbo switched to the Monday show RAW. After he was only used sporadically again, the WWE announced his release on November 7th of that year.
Since 2014, Palumbo has co-hosted the television show Lords of the Car Hoards on the US Discovery Channel (broadcast in Germany as Die Auto-Messies by DMAX ).
