ONE: You wake up to find your nightmare a reality
Now that I know if I'm coming or going. I figured it was time to get an update done. I would have done it yesterday, but with it being Easter and my birthday, I was slightly busy. I honestly need to get to working on being social and shit. One day maybe.

So how to start this damn thing, huh? I don’t really know. Like I said the name is Travis or Tomko and currently you see me on your TV either making fun of AJ, hitting him or beating someone else’s ass. You also used to see me saving Jay’s ass on occasion. Those day’s for now at least are long over. I am also one half of the TNA TAG Champions with AJ Styles.

So how did I get my start? I started several years ago when I got a WWE developmental contract and then went to OVW where I replaced Leviathan in some stable that I forget the name of.. No actually I kid. It just don’t matter. See when one moves on to bigger and better things much like Leviathan, aka Dave Bautista did, they get replaced with meaner, bigger and uglier people. Like.. Well me. Except hey, I’m not that bad looking, alright? I came in to WWE as Christian’s “Problem Solver” where I basically covered his ass and at some point Trish’s too. But like with all good things, that too ended eventually when he moved to SD then eventually left all together.

I went on to a singles career then eventually teaming with Snitsky which was actually a lot of fun. But well it just wasn’t enough for me. I was in the mindset that I wanted to get better. I had something to prove, so I asked for my release in 2006. I went to Japan and I have to admit, I actually did get better though I am not sure many people would agree with that. I did have all intentions of going back to the WWE at one point. But well that dream was seeming to get farther and farther away. So when I got the call to join TNA, I jumped for it. I went back, once more became Jay’s savior.

You know when I went to the TNA, I can admit I had mixed feelings about it. It was nothing against Jay but I felt like I was always in someone else’s shadow and I never got to show who I really was. What I can do. But at the same time I owe Jay a lot for being one of the very few who believed in me then and always had my back. My story is no where near as bad as you have heard Jay say many of times. But one thing that is true, is Jay always showed faith in me and trust. And that meant a lot. But I will get more into him later. Because he’s a valuable person in that ring and in this business but the man is one hell of an amazing and valuable friend outside of the ring and that is more important. For a long time in TNA I was sure that I would just be used as the muscle, as the man who looked out for Jay. I never thought I would have a true chance to showcase my talent.

I am supposed to now only be out for me. But I am also aligned with Angle and I get to abuse AJ. And it seems me and Jay just might get a feud. Lock Down should be fun right, man? But I never forget the ones who got me to where I am. Mainly Jay. So back to him. I was lucky enough to work with him in WWE and now in TNA and the man is honestly one of the best friends I could ask for. He really went to bat for me with TNA and really put himself out there to get me on. And honestly? It’s nice having a friend like that.

Up until recently, I also held one half of the NJPW Tag belts. Unfortunately, that ended due to them not having the money to support my contract. I am actually going to miss being a part of that,but not the traveling.

My personal life is nothing great. I am single and a father to a beautiful little girl who is my world. Her mother walked away leaving just us. I have help from friends and my parents but I love being able to spend as much time with her as I can. I don’t have to fight with her mother to see her. In between working and being a father I don’t have much free time.
