Thomas James Laughlin[3] (born February 14, 1971)[2][3] is an American professional wrestler better known by his ring name, Tommy Dreamer. He is currently under contract to World Wrestling Entertainment and wrestling on the ECW brand, where he is the reigning ECW Champion. While with the WWE, Laughlin has also been a 14 time Hardcore Champion.[1]
In addition to his current role, Dreamer is best known for the time he spent in the Philadelphia based Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) promotion, of which he has been called the "heart and soul".[5] Though he only held the ECW World Heavyweight Championship once in his time with the company – for a grand total of about 30 minutes[6] – he was regularly embroiled in the company's most visible angles on screen and involved in the booking, some of the business decisions, and, like a number of other ECW wrestlers, was part of the day to day operations of the company off screen.[7][8] Today, he is remembered for his legitimate passion for the old ECW, and constantly participates in angles where he longs with all his heart to be ECW Champion at least one more time, something he achieved at the 2009 WWE Extreme Rules event.
