Travis Tomko, better known by his stage name, Tyson Tomko, is an American professional wrestler, performing for World Wrestling Entertainment on the RAW brand.
Career
Tomko was dubbed "The Problem Solver," soon after his debut on RAW, reflecting his gimmick; that of a hired enforcer. Although Tomko occasionally wrestled matches, his primary purpose was to ensure victory for his client, Christian, a goal he usually accomplished by interfering in Christian's matches. His gimmick eventually evolved into that of a straight man to Christian's over the top character with delusions of grandeur, and Tomko could often be seen on camera shaking his head in disbelief at the situations Christian put himself and Tomko in. The duo also occasionally teamed together.
In June 2005, Christian and Tomko allied themselves with Eric Bischoff and his crusade against Extreme Championship Wrestling. They were separated on June 30 when Christian was drafted to SmackDown!.
