[edit] Career
Growing up, Oren's favorite wrestlers were "Ravishing" Rick Rude and Mr. Perfect. Oren regularly attended indy shows during his teenage years and one day he met "Vicious" Vic Grimes. Eventually Oren received his pro wrestling training from him.
Luke made his pro wrestling debut in Pensacola, Florida against Lightning Kid. Luke toured the United States independent scene before getting picked up by Xtreme Pro Wrestling. Altar Boy Luke (Oren) made his XPW debut by teaming with Altar Boy Matthew to form "The Altar Boys". Altar Boy Luke was abandoned when Matthew left XPW due to "personal reasons" so he became a singles wrestler.
He became a singles wrestler and took part in the King of the Deathmatch Tournament. He won his first round match by beating Vinnie Massaro, but lost to Supreme the next round. He again competed in the King of the Deathmatch and this time won the title by pinning Supreme at October 2002's "Fallout" event. Supreme defeated Altar Boy Luke to regain the King of the Deathmatch Championship in a House of Horrors Match in December, though.
When XPW folded in early 2003, Luke began to work for Total Nonstop Action Wrestling, Ring of Honor, Combat Zone Wrestling and (more frequently) NWA Wildside.
On the September 1, 2003 WWE SmackDown! Altar Boy Luke and Mortis beat Big Bad John and Travis Tomko in a dark match, but World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) did not sign him into a contract.
In 2007, Luke signed a contract with MTV for Wrestling Society X but MTV only ran one series of the show. He currently wrestles all around the country on the independents such as Pro Wrestling Unplugged and All Premier and has just filmed a movie called "The Dead Sleep Easy".
On July 10, 2007, Luke received another WWE tryout match, against Chuck Palumbo at the WWE Friday Night SmackDown! taping in his hometown of New Orleans, for the show airing on July 13. Unfortunaltly for Luke, he would go on to lose that match to Chuck Palumbo after Palumbo delivered a Full Throttle.
Luke appeared on SmackDown! in a 3-on-1 handicap match along with Chase Stevens and Andy Douglas against the Big Show.[2]
Luke is also featured in the Oscar award winning rappers Three 6 Mafia music video "Lolli Lolli"(Pop That Body)
