Alexander Bedranowsky (born July 21, 1985), better known by his ring name Thumbtack Jack and its abbreviation TJ, is a German retired professional wrestler, he is also best known for his work in westside Xtreme wrestling, Combat Zone Wrestling and IWA East Coast. He is well known for his hardcore style of wrestling. Jack is known for using raw syringe as his signature weapon. In 2007, Jack faced Drake Younger in a death match in westside Xtreme wrestling (wXw) in Germany titled "TJ's Ultraviolent Underground" where the elements included barbed wires, broken glass, razor blades, and a saw. Towards the end of the match, Jack brought a pile of syringes to the ringside and after being slammed into it by Younger, he scattered it on the ring. He also used it in CZW at Tournament of Death 8 against D.J. Hyde., and Tournament of Death 8.5 : Rewind against MASADA. His career was ended on October 2, 2010, when he fractured his 7th thoracic vertebrae in a match against MASADA. Bedranowsky now works for WWE as the content manager for their German YouTube channel.

Thumbtack Jack made his professional wrestling debut on August 4, 2001. Since then he has wrestled for numerous European-based promotions, including German-based westside Xtreme wrestling and German Stampede Wrestling, and in Switzerland, France, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom.

Jack made his long awaited debut against Danny Havoc in March 2009 at the CZW's Total Havoc. Jack vied for Havoc's Ultraviolent Underground Title, but ultimately, came out on the losing end.
