BIOGRAPHY

Jay White made his pro debut in September 2013, before attending the December 2014 NJPW tryout, and joining the Dojo in January 2015. On his return from learning excursion to the US in November 2017, he had reinvented himself as the devious scheming Switchblade, and by 2018 had betrayed CHAOS and poached the services of Gedo, before joining BULLET CLUB.

As skilled in the ring as he is in Machiavellian schemes, White had won the IWGP United States, Intercontinental and IWGP Heavyweight Championships all within two years of his return. May 2021 saw the NEVER Openweight Championship added to complete an unprecedented singles championship grand slam, before he captured the IWGP World Heavyweight Championship in June of 2022.  

Now labelling himself the ‘Catalyst of Professional Wrestling’, White broadened his reach into IMPACT, AEW and NJPW STRONG, while orchestrating the expulsion of Tama Tonga and Tanga Loa, as well as Jado. Yet White would be blindsided by Hikuleo turning on him to join his brothers, and he would blame Hikuleo’s betrayal for costing him the world heavyweight gold at Wrestle Kingdom 17, demanding a loser leaves Japan match on February 11 2023.
