Fortune spent time on the practice squad of both the Miami Dolphins and Colts during the 1990 season.

1991

He competed in the Philadelphia Eagles 1991 training camp, but the team released him to clear a roster spot for Kenny Jackson.

Fortune was also a starting tight end for the Frankfurt Galaxy during both their 1991 and 1992 seasons.

1992

Fortune was signed at various points of 1992 preseason, with the Washington Redskins, Dallas Cowboys, and Chicago Bears.

He was on the Bears practice squad at the start of the 1992 season, missing some time due to an allergic reaction caused by a bee sting.

He was promoted to the main roster, and spent part of the 1992 season as the team's third string tight end.

1995

Their tag team made its debut on the May 27, 1995 episode of Superstars in a victorious effort against Brooklyn Brawler and Barry Horowitz.

They wrestled two more matches on television the following month before disappearing from television until July 1995 for the In Your House pay-per-view acting as lumberjacks for the main event.

1996

After the pay-per-view they disappeared off of television for a year being sent to United States Wrestling Association (USWA), only to resurface back on WWF television in 1996.

They got a WWF Tag Team title shot against The Bodydonnas.

1997

Fortune signed a World Championship Wrestling (WCW) contract in 1997.

He wrestled mainly on the taped shows such as WCW Saturday Night and WCW Worldwide.

He made his WCW debut on the June 24 episode of WCW Saturday Night in a loss to Joey Maggs.

Fortune is also known as the first wrestler to defeat Bill Goldberg in a singles match on July 24, 1997, albeit in a dark match on Saturday Night before Goldberg's television debut.

He and Dale Torborg were briefly a tag team known as "The Pit Crew".

1998

He would barely perform throughout 1998, returning in early 1999 before again being taken off TV.

1999

His last WCW match would come on July 8, 1999, in a loss to The Barbarian.

Fortune was one of many wrestlers released by WCW in October 1999.

2000

Fortune joined the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) under the ring name Travis and teamed with college teammate Erik Watts (as Troy) as Tekno Team 2000.

Wearing silver smocks and tight zubaz, their gimmick was that they represented the cutting edge of cyberculture.

In 2000, SFX Entertainment (recently Live Nation, now Feld Entertainment) signed a contract with World Championship Wrestling to bring WCW-based trucks to their USHRA Monster Jam series, which gave Fortune, through wrestling, his start in monster trucks.

He was initially an unnamed "spokesman" for the nWo truck, who would give antagonistic interviews while the driver, Rob Knell, acted as being focused on the truck.

Many in the industry were vocal against the use of professional wrestling gimmicks for drivers, and the truck only lasted one season.

The following year, Fortune began driving the WCW Nitro Machine truck in the winter season, then bounced around trucks during the summer.

He gave Karl Malone a ride in the WCW Nitro truck and the two became friends.

2002

In 2002, Malone signed a deal with SFX/Clear Channel to create a truck called Power Forward.

Fortune was chosen as the driver and drove the truck for three years, reaching the World Finals in 2002 and 2003.

2005

In 2005, Fortune brought to the table the idea of the Superman truck.

The company created the new truck.

Based on his professional wrestling background, he decided to dye his hair black and alter his look to match the character of Superman.

He was successful in the Superman truck, and made the final rounds of several stadium events.

He was then given the "Most Improved Driver" award for 2005.

2012

In 2012, 2013 and 2014 Monster Jam Seasons, Fortune drove the new Captain America truck, one of the two Marvel Comics themed trucks coming back onto the circuit along with Alex Blackwell who was to drive Wolverine.

2015

In the 2015 season, Fortune initiated the idea of the "Soldier Fortune" truck honoring the United States Armed Forces.
