In addition, O\u2019Neil is an Ambassador for WWE helping thousands of individuals through various nonprofits and WWE partners including Susan G. Komen, Boys &amp; Girls Clubs of America and Special Olympics.

O\u2019Neil is a Tampa Bay native and graduated from the University of Florida where he was a standout football player for the Gators.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTitus is a dedicated father, humanitarian and WWE Global Ambassador.
