Johnny Candido (born June 11, 1982) is an American professional wrestler, and is the younger brother of Chris Candido.

Career

Candido trained under his brother and debuted in 2000. He did not reach a prominent position on the independent circuit until the death of his brother in April 2005, at which point he competed in several tribute matches.

He appeared on TNA Unbreakable on September 11, 2005, with the rest of Chris Candido's family, to watch the four-way elimination match for the NWA World Tag Team Championships. The winners of the TNA 2005 Chris Candido Memorial Tag Team Tournament, Alex Shelley and Sean Waltman, were scheduled to face incumbent champions The Naturals, Team Canada, and America's Most Wanted. When Waltman no-showed the event, Johnny left the audience, climbed on to the ring apron and assumed the role of Shelley's tag team partner. Candido and Shelley were eliminated soon after when Candido was pinned by Eric Young, who used a small package.

Candido later wrestled in a World Wrestling Entertainment dark match against Balls Mahoney and Axl Rotten. He also won the NWA Midwest Heavyweight Championship which had been vacated upon Chris Candido's death.

Candido is currently working with the independent promotion National Wrestling Superstars. He also wrestles for the independent federations Force One Pro Wrestling, Pro Wrestling Unplugged and USA Xtreme Wrestling.
