He began wrestling in 1998 and was a successful WWE tag team champion back in 2002. Chuck potrayed a mechanic and after splitting from the F.B.I. in 2004, the Rhode Island native played a "greaser" character called Custom Chucky P. He'd go back and forth with the WWE and the independent circuit until retiring from wrestling in 2012. Shortly after, Palumbo began a business called CP Kustoms, a body shop where he built his own motorcyles and also repaired and customized cars. The wrestling legend then decided to star in the show Extreme Car Hoarders which was shown on the Discovery Channel. Along with business partner Rick Dore, Palumbo searched for car hoarders who owned numerous vehicles and picked up the neglected cars to buy and sell for a profit. The show would later be renamed to Rusted Development. Palumbo also has a new series on YouTube titled Chuck Off All Trades. Chuck has taken a liking to his automotive craft while also helping others "I like to work with my hands, I grew up with trades, and I have a lot of irons in the fire," Palumbo told WrestleZone in 2021. "So we're just showing people what we do day-to-day. "If I can inspire a few people to do some of these things or if people just want to check it out, I'm just very fortunate that people are interested in it." Palumbo currently resides in San Diego, California and has a daughter named Charli.){kind=link}
