BIOGRAPHY

Debuting in Perth, Australia in 2001, Nicholls broke onto the worldwide scene after going to the original NJPW LA Dojo, studying alongside Rocky Romero and Shinsuke Nakamura. Nicholls would wrestle briefly in NJPW in 2006, but wrestled more extensively for Pro Wrestling NOAH in Japan, teaming with countryman Shane Haste.

The two would head to WWE in 2016. After some time in America, Nicholls would leave to pursue an opportunity to join CHAOS and represent the group in the 2019 New Japan Cup, where he reached the second round. He challenged for the IWGP Tag Team Championship in his home country of Australia, but was ultimately unsuccessful.

There was a lot of business left undone in Japan though, and in NJPW specifically; after their own respective WWE spells, Haste was quick to join JONAH in TMDK on NJPW STRONG, and Nicholls soon followed. Arguably the best duo not to have held IWGP Tag Team Championships, haste and Nicholls set out to rectify that point in 2023.
