Gimmick/Background:
Tommy Bedlam (real name Tommy Bennett) was a cowboy long before he was a professional wrestler. Raised by a single mother in Sweetwater, Texas, Tommy didn't even know that he was the son of wrestling royalty until much later in life. At 16, he found out that his father was Sammy Bedlam, a Southeastern Wrestling Federation Hall of Famer. Sammy's two sons whom he raised (Jimmy and Jason) have been staples in the SEWF for years where they're managed by their sister, Amanda. This revelation about his true identity came around the same time that Tommy's mother was forced to sell the family ranch that Tommy had been raised on by his mom and her two brothers. Tommy decided to reach out to his biological father, who shunned him. He decided to get into professional wrestling to try to get his father's attention, and along the way, he found his true purpose. After quickly moving up the ranks of Longhorn Championship Wrestling, a regional promotion based in Sweetwater, Tommy caugh the eye of Rocco Sullivan, a higher-up within the FWA, who offered him a contract and continues to serve as Tommy's manager. After a single meeting with Rocco, Tommy forfeited the LCW World Heavyweight Championship that he had held for over 400 days and became a full-time competitor with the FWA.

Tommy first met Randi at the same rodeo in which we were introduced to the late Uncle Jimmy. Her mother (Suzy, who still appears in some promos) was dating Jimmy, and Tommy was immediately drawn to Randi (for obvious reasons). The two quickly hit it off. Randi recently gave birth to the couple's first son, Walker, and they are engaged to be married.

Rocco Sullivan is a wrestling lifer. His career started in the Midwest in the 1970s. While he was initially an in-ring talent, a severe knee injury cut that career short. Driven by his love for the business and his innate ability to work the crowds on the mic, Rocco transitioned in a managerial role for the better part of the next 30-plus years.
Rocco was working as a regional director for talent scouting and acquisition in the FWA when he stumbled across a video of Tommy Bedlam from Longhorn Championship Wrestling. He was immediately interested in Bedlam and brought him to New York to talk about joining the company.
After Tommy's debut in the Atomic Battle Royal on Meltdown 1, Rocco informed Tommy that the newcomer could use a manager and decided that he was the only logical option. Now the fast-talking, high-energy, business-minded manager is lending his years of experience and expertise to Tommy on his quest for greatness in the FWA.
