Tiger Jeet Singh Jr., President
Birthplace: Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
Height: 6’5” Weight: 275 lbs.
Tiger Jeet Singh Junior, or as he is more commonly known, Tiger Jr., has been an exceptional athlete and entrepreneur from the beginning. He has participated in many sports, but his true passion was basketball. It was his desire and commitment that earned him a starting position on Ontario’s provincial basketball team. He also attracted the attention of top ranked colleges in the United States. After sustaining an injury at the age of 18, which would sideline him for one year, Tiger accompanied his father to Japan as a method to help cope with his season ending injury.
Upon returning back from his first trip to Japan at the age of 18 years old, where he witnessed his father’s iconic stature in the country of the rising sun, Tiger Jr. decided to follow in his father’s wrestling footsteps. Putting aside any personal ambitions of his own, Tiger made it his goal to carry on his father’s legacy both inside and outside the confines of the wrestling business with the hope that his father’s sacrifices and achievements would be remembered by future generations.
Tiger was recruited to the WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment) in 1997 when WWE Chairman Vince McMahon visited Tiger’s home and presented him with a 10 year multi-million dollar contract. He applied his hard work, creativity and innovative thinking to the task of creating a very popular wrestling sketch “How Low Will An American Go?”, that in short order garnered the highest TV ratings in WWE programming at the time. Tiger was blessed with and accepted the honour of having the stage name ‘Tiger Ali Singh’ as a show of respect for his two heroes, his father, Tiger Jeet Singh and boxing legend Mohammad Ali. Five years into his contract, Tiger’s in-ring career was prematurely cut short after suffering his third concussion within a nine-month period.
Tiger Jr. is the President of the Tiger Jeet Singh Foundation, where the objective is the assist the less fortunate. The foundation’s core mandate is to promote inclusion and to date has raised over twenty five million dollars in combined donations and sponsorships in support of charities, women shelters, hospitals and funding public school initiatives for mental health, nutrition programs, inclusive classrooms and literacy. Tiger Jr. has also been part of building his family’s growing hospitality and real estate development businesses and has successfully branched out on his own into several other industries.
Today, Tiger applies the same ‘values’ he witnessed from his family – respect, trust and loyalty – in developing the reputation, and building the success, of the Tiger Jeet Singh Corporation. These values have been recognized in strategic partnerships with organizations such as Deloitte, Accenture and KPMG.
