Lance Cade a.k.a. Garrison Cade is an American professional wrestler, performing for World Wrestling Entertainment on its RAW Brand.
Career
Lance Cade was once a student of The Heart-Break Kid Shawn Michaels in "The Shawn Michaels Wrestling Academy" at San Antonio, Texas.
His main pro wrestling run came in 2004, as one half of a tag team with Mark Jindrak. The pinnacle event of their partnership was a spot in the Fatal 4 Way match for the World Tag Team Championships at Wrestlemania XX. Other than that, the team found little success and disbanded when Jindrak was drafted onto the Smackdown Brand.
After Jindrak was drafted to SmackDown!, Cade next associated himself with Jonathan Coachman, and the two teamed up in numerous storylines, including one where they tried and to take Eric Bischoff's "simple-minded" nephew Eugene out of the company. This angle came to a head at Bad Blood when Eugene faced Coachman in one-on-one action, and saw Cade try to distract Eugene with cookies, only for Dinsmore to fight it off and defeat Coach. Cade later teamed up with "Coach" at Vengeance 2004 to take on the debuting team of Rhyno and Tajiri. Cade and Coachman lost the match, and Cade was taken off WWE TV after an injury in September 2004.
Recently, Garrison is wrestling in OVW and is expected to come back to WWE TV soon. A proposed storyline had him repackaged under a "HB Cade" gimmick, mocking superstar Shawn Michaels for his return.
