known as PG-13 with Wolfie D
and dominated the USWA tag team division throughout the mid-1990s, winning the USWA Tag Team Championship
on fifteen occasions. After losing to Bill Dundee, PG-13 were obliged to leave the USWA. They returned shortly thereafter under masks
as The Cyberpunks, with Dundee known as "Ice" and Wolfie D known as "Fire". After some time, The Cyberpunks unmasked and reverted to being PG-13.
In 1995, PG-13 entered the World Wrestling Federation and feuded with the Smoking Gunns but were gone shortly thereafter. In 1997, they re-appeared with the World Wrestling Federation
as members of the Nation of Domination
. Along with Jim Johnston
and Wolfie D
, he helped create their theme song. The next year, PG-13 appeared with Extreme Championship Wrestling
, where they became known for goading the audience and their opponents. They wrestled The Eliminators
, Spike Dudley
, and Mikey Whipwreck
.
PG-13 appeared briefly for World Championship Wrestling
in the early 2000s, where at times they teamed with Frog. They frequently had matches with the Jung Dragons

On Friday, 5 August, 2011 Dundee won the XCW Heavyweight Championship from, then champion, "Marvelous" Mitch Ryder, the co-owner of XCW Mid-West.
In December 2010, Joey Styles
called Jamie out and challenged him to a fight on WWE's 24/7 programming. Among other things, Styles would refer to Dundee as a "classless act" - alleging that he’s coasted off of his father’s reputation, and that googling his name would bring up results which, "attest to his low moral character."
Jamie soon responded publicly on Brady Hicks
' In the Room podcast, saying, "I’m not gonna attest that I’m a saint. I’m not even here to say the things he said aren’t true. I’m just here to say that it’s not his place to say that. When a clown like that calls me out in my name, I am the one to answer. I feel like I have to step up and say I accept your challenge. He’s got all those billion dollar cameras there but nobody knows who Joey Styles is, I guess he needs fifteen minutes to ride on Jamie Dundee’s shoulders. That’s just what I have to say about this whole issue."
at the Kappa Alpha Order
fraternity house in Martin, Tennessee
. Dundee arrived at the event visibly drunk and proceeded to shout obscenities at fans, until his microphone was cut off midway through the tirade. Angered by the microphone being turned off, he proceeded to continue his yelling and "sucker punched" a member of the audience. He then proceeded to receive what one onlooker termed "the beating of a lifetime" by twenty to thirty angry fans in which he received broken ribs and teeth.
In 2000 Dundee appeared twice on Jerry Springer
.
Recently, Dundee did a shoot interview with Highspots that tackled a variety of subjects, including admitting that Tommy Rich
and his father got him drunk and pierced his ears at the age of four, challenging Ken Shamrock
to a shootfight, and talking about the inner workings of The Jerry Springer Show, for whom he claims to have booked performers such as Steve Day and the Iron Sheik.
As of March,2011, Dundee is running a wrestling school in Henderson, Kentucky
