Matt is a two-time former TNA World Champion. He played baseball and football while growing up and attended Union Pines High School in North Carolina.
KC NAVARRO
The 25-year-old Navarro, a Miami native who now lives in New Jersey, made his pro wrestling debut as a sophomore in high school at age 15. He has been a champion for multiple independent wrestling promotions before signing with TNA. Navarro was bullied in school for being a fan of professional wrestling. He got into wrestling because his father was in the U.S. Army. “Wrestling made me feel like he was home,” he said. Navarro was an aide for children with special needs at Bright Beginnings Learning Center. He graduated from Metuchen High School in 2017 in Metuchen, New Jersey.
