Chris Mordetsky

Chris Mordetsky, with the stage name of Chris Masters, and nicknamed The Masterpiece was born on January 8, 1983 in Santa Monica, California. He is a professional wrestler who performs for World Wrestling Entertainment on its RAW brand.

Career

Modetsky was Mr. California Bodybuilding Champion.

Mordetsky began his wrestling training in Ultimate Pro Wrestling (UPW) before being given a WWE developement contract to train in the WWE's farm territory Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW).

When Modetsky was finally called up to the main roster the WWE showed promo style introductory videos outlining him as The Masterpiece — tauting him as having a body so perfect, it would appear he was sculpted out of stone.

"The Masterpiece" Chris Masters (as he was now known) made his RAW debut against WWE's star Jobber, Steven Richards. During the match, Masters hit an attack that broke Richards' nose (orbital bone). Richards was out of action after having facial reconstructive surgury. Masters since has been put in the ring against unknown jobbers, mainly on RAW's sister show Sunday Night Heat, until the WWE believe him safe enough to face current stars.

Masters' next main show appearance saw him claim that his Master-Lock hold is unbreakable, and he even went as far as to put up $1,000 of his own money for the person who can break out of the hold. So far only jobbers (and plants in the audience) have taken up the challenge; all have failed. Masters has since increased the reward to $4,000, as well as a signed American football and shirt.
