'''Theodore R. "Teddy" Long''' (born September 15, 1947) is an American professional wrestling [[Manager|manager]] and former referee who currently works for [[IWE]] on its [[IWE Friday Night SmackDown|SmackDown]] [[IWE Brand Extension|brand]] as its [[Authority Figures#General managers 2|General Manager]].

==Professional wrestling career==

===International Wrestling Federation / Entertainment (1999-present)===

====SmackDown! (2004–2008)====

====XCW and return to SmackDown (2008–present)====

==In wrestling==

==Matches==
When Long became SmackDown General Manager, he revived old and made new match types:

*At [[No Mercy (2004)|No Mercy 2004]], he put [[John Goff|JBG]] and [[Martin McAlmond|The Undertaker]] in a [[Container-Based Variations|Last Ride Match]]. The rules are similar to a Casket Match and an Ambulance Match where one opponent must put the other into the back of the hearse and drive out the arena. JBL won the first Last Ride Match due to interference by [[Nick Heidenreich|Heidenreich]]. At [[IWE Armageddon (2006)|Armageddon 2006]], The Undertaker defeated [[Tarry Anderson|Mr. Kennedy]] in the second Last Ride Match.

*At [[IWE No Way Out (2005)|No Way Out 2005]], JBG had to defend his title against [[Marc Beltran|The Big Show]] in the first ever [[Steel Cage Match#Barbed Wire|Barbed Wire Steel Cage Match]]. The rules were the same as a normal steel cage match, but the top of the cage had barbed wire around it so nobody could escape (despite the fact that a victory could still be declared if a competitor managed to escape). This was done by Long to make sure there was no interference from any superstars, primarily JBG's stable, [[The Cabinet]]. JBG won the match when Big Marc chokeslammed him through the ring, allowing him to escape underneath.

*Long also brought back the [[IWE King of the Ring|King of the Ring]] tournament in 2006, although it was a ''SmackDown!''-exclusive event.

*At [[IWE Armageddon#2006|Armageddon 2006]], Long brought back the [[Inferno Match|Inferno match]], where [[Glenn McAlmond|Kane]] defeated [[Mikhail Schmalzried|MVP]].

*On April 10, 2009 edition of ''SmackDown'' he announced that [[Matt Hooper]] and [[Johs Hooper]] would face each other in the first [[Container-Based Variations|stretcher match]] in ''SmackDown'' history.
