Nigel Vanderbilt, also known by his former ring name Cash Flo or nickname The Icon, is an American professional wrestler who wrestled for Lords of Pain Wrestling (LPW), performing on its Insanity brand, where he is a former LPW Television Champion.
Early life
Nigel Vanderbilt was born into one of the most powerful families in the world. Nothing was denied to Nigel as he grew up going to the best schools, endless traveling, and a life full of endless luxury.
No matter where he went, Nigel followed professional wrestling passionately. Though his parents didn’t understand his interest in the sport, they supported it. When he was ten, he told his father that he wanted to become a professional wrestler. His father didn’t agree, but told a young Nigel that he would support his wish if he managed to keep his grades up and would one day attend Boston University. Nigel agreed.
Nigel started training in Japan when he was 15 and spent the next three years learning from the best of the best of the Asian world. When he turned 18, he returned to the United States to study at Boston University, where he graduated top of the class. While attending classes, he spent his weekends in and out of the ring training and wrestling on the independent scene. He garnished a terrible reputation for being difficult to work with, a show-off, and a bad sport, but nobody could deny his incredible mic skills and high flying performances.
At graduation Nigel spent a year in AAA down in Mexico getting trained by some that promotion had to offer—of course all on his father’s behalf.
Under the moniker of Cash Flo, Nigel has returned to the United States to wrestle for Lords of Pain Wrestling (LPW) and to leave his mark as the best in the business. Hungry for gold and armed with unlimited financial support, Cash Flo has arrived.

- Entrance
- The entrance ramp fills with smoke as the rocking guitars of the song kick into full throttle. Golden pyro rains down from the rafters as Nigel appears in the smoke.

After that, Nigel heads to the ring ignoring fans-except to give the occasional middle finger.
