"The Innovator of Violence" is the heart and soul of Extreme Championship Wrestling, set to defend it against all outsiders.
With the incredible ability to turn anything into an offensive weapon, Dreamer is at one with the ECW fan base, putting himself and his body on the line for his fans.
This life has not been easy for Dreamer however, as he has been placed in situations that would conquer a normal man, but has always somehow prevailed in the end, running the likes of Jerry "The King" Lawler out of ECW despite insurmountable odds.
The one-time protégé of Terry Funk, Dreamer may look like a matinee idol, but he's more likely to pick up a chair than throw a hiptoss. In the dark world that encompasses Extreme Championship Wrestling, Tommy Dreamer is the heart. Even more so, he is the light.
That light never shined brighter than at Cyberslam 2000, when Dreamer not only realized the culmination of a lifelong dream by defeating Tazz to become the ECW World Heavyweight champion, but also buried the hatchet in his lifelong feud with childhood friend Raven. After years of hard work for ECW, Tommy Dreamer was reaping the reward.
That reward was ripped from his clutches when The Impact Player, Justin Credible immediately challenged Dreamer and won the World Heavyweight championship after the interference of Francine. Credible, a man who once spit on the memory of Dreamer's deceased grandfather, now held the belt Tommy had rightfully earned with years of his blood, sweat, and tears.
Throughout his career, Tommy Dreamer was always fighting for a goal. Whether it be for ECW or the honor of Beulah McGuillicuty, Dreamer was always fighting for something. Now, Extreme Championship Wrestling's "Innovator of Violence." is fighting for himself, to regain the championship he rightfully earned.
