THE RAVEN is the nom de ring of Scott Anthony Levy.

The Raven was born September 8, 1964 and  is an American-born professional wrestler, wrestling producer, and writer. He is also five-time World Champion with the ECW world Heavy Weight title twice, the NWA equivalent once, the VCW title once along with the the 3PW also on one occasion. For one day only he also held the WCW US Championship. His achievements are many including a record number of WWF/E Hardcore Championships. He is an innovator in the wrestling world and has brought pleasure to untold numbers of the grappling, slamming sport’s aficionados. He came up with Raven’s Rules, Clockwork Orange House of Fun, and Hangman’s Horror, much to the delight of thousands if not millions.

The Raven is a college graduate with I believe a degree in Criminal Justice from the University of Delaware, but after graduation decided on a career in professional wrestling under the ring-name Scotty The Body with the Continental Wrestling Association in Memphis. He played the toy-boy (or is it boy-toy?) of one Missy Hyatt. He then competed in his home sate of Florida.

After a number of short stints with the programs of other regional organizer’s of pro-wrestling which frequently ended with disagreements, Mr. Levy got his first taste national media attention while with the Dallas, TexasGlobal Wrestling Federation. His name by then was the “Palm Beach Heart Throb” Scott Anthony. He was a player in The Cartel, which was supposedly wrangled by a mysterious and never named “Boss.” The  GWF  aired on ESPN and so Mr. Levy was seen all over the country.

Mr. Levy is of undoubted Jewish ancestry with some Italian blood. And married Selina Kyle in January 2007.  And should we be surprised that this successful business man possesses an IQ of 143 and is a member of MENSA and the Theta Chi Frat. His professional wrestling demeanor belies his other attributes and achievements; as they say you can’t judge a book by it’s cover.
