Tiny Iron, also known as Andrew Harrison, is an English professional wrestler. A Londoner of African descent, he was the youngest member of a large family and grew up on an infamous council estate in Tottenham where the London riots were. Harrison is considerably taller than 6 feet and weighs between 270 and 300 pounds, contrary to his professional wrestling ring name Tiny Iron. Jay-Z, 50 Cent, and Rihanna are just a handful of celebrities who Harrison has provided personal security for, with Rihanna describing him as a ‘sweet guy’. However, it is not only security and wrestling that Tiny Iron has embarked on.
Acting Career
Many people are often shocked when they discover that Tiny Iron had an acting career, before pursuing anything else. In 2002’s Jeffrey Archer: The Truth, a television movie, Harrison made his debut appearance in a supporting role. Then, The Number One Girl, a 2005 direct-to-video film starring Vinnies Jones, was his next film appearance. The following year, he appeared in the movie Rulers and Dealers.
Two years later, in 2008, he had a recurring part on the television shows Trexx and Flipside. He then made an appearance in the 2009 movie Dead Man Running, which also starred the rapper 50 Cent. This then led onto Tiny Iron forming a relationship with 50 cent, and asking him to provide personal security for him. 50 cent was one of the first high profile celebrities that Tiny Iron provided security for.
Professional Wrestling Career
When his acting career came to an end, Harrison began training under Charlie Rage, who is a former professional wrestler – Harrison made his debut in wrestling in 2007. After several years of preparation, Tiny Iron repeatedly won the title of Heavyweight Champion, establishing his reputation.
Aesthetic wise, Tiny took inspiration from fictional superheroes such as He-Man, Superman, Incredible Hulk, and Mr T. He even plastered his walls with their posters! In fact, it was his admiration of superheroes that led him to become fascinated with the wrestling world and set out to build his superhero like physique – at only 13 years old! His physique is what made him perfect for personal security, leading him onto working for the likes of Justin Timberlake, Akon, and the Black Eyed Peas.
