Lance Storm

Lance was born in Sarnia on April 3rd 1969. He grew up in North Bay, Ontario and most of his family still lives in that area. He played volleyball during his early school days and never showed an interest in Wrestling until he entered Wilfrid Laurier University in Waterloo, Ontario. During his time at Wilfrid Laurier, Lance finally found what he wanted in life was to be a pro wrestler. So he packed his bags and moved to the home of Wrestling legends in Canada - Calgary, Alberta. In 1990 he enrolled at the famous Hart Dungeon, which had produced legends such as Stu Hart, Bret "The Hitman" Hart,The King of Harts Owen Hart, The Loose Cannon Brian Pillman and Jim The Anvil Neidhart. Lance began his training with two other superstars in the making - Chris Benoit and Chris Jerico. A year after he enrolled at the Hart dungeon, Lance was ready to tour Japan where his tag team partner was his mate from the Hart Dungeon - Chris Jerico. After numerous Independent Wrestling Tours and trips to Japan, Lance was signed by EcW in 1996. 5 years of hard work, wrestling all over the world, paid off. In Ecw he won the tag team titles on 3 occasions and finally got his break in the big time when he was signed by WCW in 2000. In less than a year after joining WCW, Lance won the WCW US Championship 2 times as well as the WCW Hardcore Title. He also recorded the proudest moment of his career in August 2000, when his idol Bret "The Hitman" Hart made a symbolic passing of the torch to Lance Storm at a PPV event in their home country of Canada.
