Nicholas "Nick" Dinsmore (born December 17, 1975), also known by his World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) ring name Eugene, is an American professional wrestler and promoter. He is a former World Tag Team Champion, with William Regal. Under his real name, he is best known for his time in Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW), as a wrestler and trainer. He is a ten-time OVW Heavyweight Champion and an eleven-time (and first, with Flash Flanagan) OVW Southern Tag Team Champion.
Dinsmore debuted in 1996, and soon began wrestling in the United States Wrestling Association (USWA).
In Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW), he formed a successful tag team with Rob Conway, called The Lords of The Ring. The team had a record ten reigns as Southern Tag Team Champions. Dinsmore also held the OVW Heavyweight Championship a record ten times. While still in OVW, Dinsmore also made some appearances as a jobber in the World Wrestling Federation, first on an episode of Shotgun Saturday Night in 1999. He wrestled in the WWF as Doink the Clown on two later occasions, and as one half of Los Conquistadores (with Rob Conway).
