Michael Iorio is a retired Italian American professional wrestler best known under the ring name of Big Guido. Iorio wrestled as an enforcer for The Full Blooded Italians in Extreme Championship Wrestling in the late 1990s. He was also a part of the team's reunion in World Wrestling Entertainment in 2005 and 2006. In addition, he has worked for Puerto Rico's International Wrestling Association and Empire State Wrestling.
In 1991 and 1992, Iorio made a few appearances for the World Wrestling Federation as a jobber under the ring name Mike Fury. He lost to such stars at The British Bulldog, The Warlord, Tito Santana and Bret Hart.
Michael Iorio first joined the Full Blooded Italians in the original ECW at Heatwave 1996, introduced as Little Guido's "little" brother, Big Guido. He accompanied the stable members to the ring, and sporadically fought actual matches.
Iorio reappeared on World Wrestling Entertainment's ECW brand's One Night Stand on June 12, 2005 accompanying the Full Blooded Italians to the ring. Santoni then reappeared on ECW on June 11, 2006 during ECW One Night Stand alongside Tony Mamaluke and Little Guido. On the June 13 edition of ECW, Big Guido took part in the hardcore battle royal and was eliminated by The Big Show, but helped Sabu eliminate Big Show.
