Wagner, real name Cal Bloom, got his start after he played college football while being recruited by WWE in 2019. He started training at the Performance Center, and when WWE started using younger stars as part of NXT 2.0 in late 2021, he received a push on television.
Most recently, he had been in a feud with Bron Breakker and Lexis King. He hasn’t wrestled since April 2, where he put over King.
