Bradley Cain (born September 8, 1970) is an American author, personal trainer and professional wrestler, better known by his ring name, Lodi. Cain is best known for his appearances with World Championship Wrestling between 1997 and 2000, where he was a member of Raven's Flock stable and the tag team The West Hollywood Blondes. Early life After graduating from Eastern Randolph High School, Cain attended East Carolina University in 1988, and graduated with a degree in political science in 1993. During his time in college, Cain was both a member of the United States Army Reserve, serving as an operating room specialist, and a bodybuilder.

Another proposed ring name, Skank, was also turned down due to an independent wrestler having used it for two years. At World War 3 on November 23, 1997, Cain debuted under the ring name Lodi ("Idol" spelled backwards, which came about due to his perceived resemblance to rock musician Billy Idol). Lodi was introduced as a member of Raven's Flock as an injury replacement for Stevie Richards. He accompanied his fellow Flock members to ringside carrying a variety of signs, which he displayed to the audience at intervals (a gimmick borrowed from ECW's Sign Guy Dudley).
