Larry Tact grew up in a relatively good part of Long Island. The biggest worry he had was being criticized for his tendency to speak out about things he found wrong with his school or community, which he did with great fervor. However, once he got into college, Tact became a bouncer, making some extra money. He eventually took up training at a wrestling academy, and learned how to integrate his strength with the technical style his intructors taught him.

Upon completing college, Tact took up an entrepeneurship and invested in stocks, making a great deal of wealth. He lived comfortably in New York City, being in good connection with influential people. Tact continued to be the outspoken person from before, and became an excellent conversationalist and influential in his own right.

Once he had attained this great wealth, Tact relaxed his focus on business dealings, focusing more on hobbies and the good life. However, he always had the urge to go back to doing wrestling, and so Tact took up lessons at the wrestling academy again, while continuing to frequent the local gyms as he always had done. The business world, Tact found, was not his true passion, despite the success he had achieved. Wrestling was what he wanted to do, and so after training diligently in the academy, Tact broke into the indies with the NYWA. He eventually made it to more mainstream promotions, such as the IWF, RMWF, and WWL.

However, Tact's true calling of wrestling would also be his financial downfall. Tact's outspoken nature led him into trouble when he stepped on the toes of an IWF legend. Among other things, he was kidnapped by the mafia and framed for credit card fraud. In the end, Tact lost almost all of the fortune he had accumulated prior to entering wrestling, leaving him in shambles and dealing a great blow to his spirit and will. Tact went through a period of apathy, but finally managed to pull himself out of it. The ordeal ended up helping to toughen his will and make him mentally stronger, but also more apathetic towards wrestling and the people in its world.

Tact would continue on to other promotions and further successes, but also hit additional difficult times, and suffer some setbacks due to injury. During his recovery from injuries sustained, Tact always managed to improve himself and his technique. His will and spirit are both very strong, and added to his sharpened and refined in-ring technique, it makes Tact a formidable opponent.
