Professional wrestling career[]

All Elite Wrestling (2020–present)[]

See also: Team Taz

On the December 16, 2020 episode of AEW Dynamite, Senerchia, under the ring name Hook, made his first appearance in All Elite Wrestling, aligning himself with Team Taz (Taz, Brian Cage, Ricky Starks and Powerhouse Hobbs).[3] On December 8, 2021, Hook made his professional wrestling debut against Fuego Del Sol for an episode of AEW Rampage which aired two days later. Hook won the match by submission with a half nelson choke called Redrum.[4] Shortly after the match aired, Tony Khan announced that Hook had signed a contract with the company.[5] Hook's debut, which had become an internet meme prior to the match,[6][7] garnered praise from critics, with several praising his presence being atypical of a rookie.[8][9][10][11] After several weeks squashing various wrestlers, Hook entered into a feud with QT Marshall.[12] On March 6, 2022 at the Revolution buy-in show, Hook defeated Marshall.[13]

Professional wrestling style and persona[]

Hook's finisher, named Redrum, is a half nelson choke (also known as a kata ha jime), the same as his father's finisher, the Tazmission.[5]

Hook uses the Action Bronson song "The Chairman's Intent" from the album Blue Chips 7000 as his entrance theme.[14]

Personal life[]

Senerchia is the son of professional wrestler Peter Senerchia, known professionally as Taz.

Senerchia played lacrosse at Plainedge High School, garnering all-state honors and being ranked 74th in the nation by Inside Lacrosse.[1] In 2018, Senerchia served as a long-stick midfielder for the Bucknell Bison men's lacrosse team.[2]
