From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia
Glenn Gilberti is an American professional wrestler who has worked for WCW and Total Nonstop Action Wrestling.
Career
Gilberti started wrestling in 1991 on the Georgia independent circuit.
Gilberti made his name in World Championship Wrestling as Disco Inferno. He annoyed fans with his dancing routine and rose to mid-card status as a heel. His stay in WCW included a feud with Jacqueline, which caused him to briefly leave WCW in a dispute over being pinned by a woman. He was in a tag team with Alex Wright called the "Dancing Fools" and "Boogie Nights" at various times. He was also a hanger on to the nWo Wolf Pac and a member of the Filthy Animals near WCW's last days.
Gilberti then went on to join Total Nonstop Action Wrestling, changing his alias to his real name. He was a member of S.E.X. and even became their leader near the end of that angle. He was also a member of the New York Connection (also known as the "N-Y-C") with Big Vito, Johnny Swinger and Trinity.
In 2005, he went back to working the independent circuit in Georgia.
