“When WWE came through the area, Chief Jay Strongbow would get a hold of Sonny and say he needed a crew of guys.”

During the WWF days, Pearce would go on to face The Nation of Domination and the Truth Commission. With only a little over a year in professional wrestling, the opportunity offered Pearce an experience many wrestlers weren't offered.

“It was a hugely important part of my life and development. To get that experience and see how the machine worked at the time, at 18 years old, is incredible. I think back now on how lucky I was.”

Pearce would move on to pursue opportunities on the independent wrestling scene in 2000.
