About Vito LoGrasso
Born 1964. Vito LoGrasso is an American professional wrestler.
World Championship Wrestling (1999β2001) In 1999 Vito left ECW for World Championship Wrestling (WCW) where he teamed with Johnny the Bull as The Mamalukes. Managed by Tony Marinara The Mamalukes captured the WCW World Tag Team Championship twice, and were, in storyline, jointly awarded the WCW Hardcore Championship. His only feud was with "Irish" Pat Kenney, in which they exchanged victories.
Return to WWE (2005β2007)
The Full Blooded Italians and singles competition (2005β2007) In early 2005, Vito worked in various dark matches with Val Venis before signing a contract with WWE in June.
On the August 6, 2005 episode of Velocity, Vito made his WWE debut, where he helped Nunzio win the WWE Cruiserweight Championship from Paul London. Vito and Nunzio would then reform as The Full Blooded Italians, wrestling in various tag team matches. On the June 2, 2006, episode of SmackDown!, after Nunzio was defeated by Matt Hardy, Vito, wearing a dress, came out to help Nunzio backstage. The following week on SmackDown!, after arguing about Vito's clothing choices, the two had a match against each other, where Vito defeated Nunzio. Shortly after, Nunzio joined the ECW brand, leaving Vito on SmackDown!, officially disbanding the team.
Despite him cross dressing, Vito would continue to explain that he was a straight man; as on the June 23 episode of SmackDown!, Vito asked Ashley Massaro out on a date, which she agreed to. Vito would then begin to "have more fun" during his matches, running around and waving his dresses and otherwise interacting with the fans, turning him once again face. During this time, Montel Vontavious Porter and William Regal, as well as SmackDown! color commentator John "Bradshaw" Layfield, began to voice their problems with a man wrestling in a dress. Both MVP and Regal threatened SmackDown! General Manager Theodore Long with a sexual harassment lawsuit to get out of a match with Vito. At the same time, WWE began to "censor" any incidents of Vito's dress raising and exposing his (bethonged) buttocks. Vito then began an undefeated streak, which would last over four months until the October 20 episode of SmackDown!, when Vito was defeated by Elijah Burke after interference from his partner Sylvester Terkay. On the November 3 episode of SmackDown!, Vito teamed with Layla in a losing effort against The Miz and Kristal.
On May 15, 2007, Vito was released from his WWE contract.
Deep South Wrestling and Ohio Valley Wrestling (2007) On January 25, 2007, Vito won the Deep South Heavyweight Championship after defeating former champion Bradley Jay and Ryan O'Reilly in a three-way round robin match.

February 24, 2011, He returned to defeat the Himalayan Tiger in Kathmandu, Nepal for the Golden Cine Professional Wrestling Show held at the Dasharath Stadium in front of 20,000 people, to become the first ever Profession Wrestling Champion of Nepal. On March 1, 2011, Vito presence was requested by the US Embassy of Nepal. He was greeted and congratulated by the councilor of public affairs of US embassy to Nepal, Terry J. White and staff.

Juggalo Championship Wrestling (2025βpresent) On the November 7, 2025 episode of JCW Lunacy, Vito made his Juggalo Championship Wrestling debut after arriving in a limousine to the venue as an investor in the promotion. At the end of the episode, he would reveal himself and would fire a wrestler named CoKane after a confrontation with commissioner and JCW owner Violent J. On the following episode, he would force Steven Flowe and CoKane to fight each other in the main event. After the match, the St. Claire Monster Corporation (Kongo Kong and Mr. Happy) led by Jasmin St. Claire would attack both of the wrestlers. On the November 28, 2025 episode of Lunacy, Vito threatened Steven Flowe to bring CoKane to him otherwise he would punish them both. Flowe refused and Vito would attack him before Vince Russo stormed out to the ring to stop Vito.

Lograsso (alongside former WWE NXT wrestler Adam Mercer) filed a concussion lawsuit against WWE in January 2015, claiming "serious neurological damage, including severe headaches, memory loss, depression and anxiety, as well as deafness" as a result of their WWE run. The suit was litigated by attorney Konstantine Kyros, who also represented wrestler Billy Jack Haynes in a similar lawsuit and went on to represent dozens of other wrestlers. The lawsuit was dismissed in April 2018 by District of Connecticut judge Vanessa Lynne Bryant.
