Sean Morley, better known as Val Venis or The Big Valbowski (born on March 6, 1971 in Oakville, Ontario) is a Canadian professional wrestler currently performing for World Wrestling Entertainment on the RAW brand.
He debuted in the then-WWF as a face to start with in 1998 and has enjoyed moderate success since then. He is also a self described libertarian, and the former brother-in-law of fellow WWE superstar Edge. Morley's on-screen character Val Venis was created from political conservative Sean Morley's sense of humor as a porn star whose most outrageous angle involved being nearly "castrated" by Kaientai (TAKA Michinoku, Funaki, Dick Togo, Men's Teioh, and Wally Yamaguchi). Morley later turned heel by joining forces with Trish Stratus. Later he joined Right to Censor. He was gone when the WCW/ECW Alliance were around and then after the Alliance broke up he came back to Smackdown! and turned face again by joining forces with then babyface and then Smackdown! star, Edge. He was then known as the Big Valbowski. Later he drafted to Raw and was known as Chief Morley. He turned heel again by joining forces with Raw's G.M. Eric Bishoff. Bishoff "fired" him but he was hired back by then Raw's co G.M. Stone Cold Steve Austin and he turned face for the third time by siding with the fans. He even changed his name back to Val Venis.
