Thomas Erwin "Tom" Zenk (born November 30, 1958) is an American retired professional wrestler and bodybuilder. he is best known for his appearances with professional wrestling promotions the World Wrestling Federation and World Championship Wrestling in the late 1980s and early 1990s.
Zenk started wrestling in 1984 for the AWA, before moving to the NWA's Pacific Northwest territory. Here he feuded with Bobby Jaggers. At Rick Martel's request, Zenk moved to Montreal to work for the International Wrestling Association (IWA). Here, the two formed The Can-Am Connection, which later appeared in the WWF.
Zenk joined the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) with Martel in late 1986, as The Can-Am Connection. They defeated the tag team of Don Muraco and Bob Orton, Jr. in the opening bout of WrestleMania III, on March 29, 1987. The popular team pushed as the possible successors to The Hart Foundation as the World Tag Team Champions, but this push ended abruptly when Zenk left the promotion.
Between 1987 and 1989, Zenk made multiple tours of Japan with All Japan Pro Wrestling.
