Scorch's first professional wrestling gimmick was a timid rabbi type guy named "Yasha Stein." During his career, he went by the name "Vito Carlucci," as his heel manager gimmick. He was trained by Killer Kowalski and worked with the likes of King Kong Bundy, Triple H, The Road Dogg, and many more. Shortly after getting signed by the WWF, he shattered his kneecap, losing his contract two weeks before his debut on television.
Over the years, Scorch has run into controversies surrounding his talk show, believed by many to be a scam for advertisers by lying about its popularity and numbers. His co-hosts, including the likes of Michael Boris and Sib Hashian, a famous drummer and father of Dwayne Johnson's wife, was reportedly denied the money and weekly paychecks Scorch promised them.
As of 2019, Scorch has taken a break from acting and other career paths, but publicly says he has interest in pursuing it once more in the future. To date, he still does different iterations of Scorch's PFG-TV and morning podcasts to his website and Facebook.
