Nathan Everhart (born September 28, 1988) is an American retired professional wrestler, better known by the ring name Jason Jordan.
[2][3] Jordan signed a contract with WWE in 2011 and was sent to its developmental territory Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW), before debuting in NXT the following year.
He attended Indiana University, taking part in wrestling, competed in the Big Ten Conference and became a three-time national qualifier for NCAA at the Division I level.
His first professional wrestling match was at an FCW live event on September 30, where he teamed with Abraham Washington in a losing effort against Big E Langston and Calvin Raines.
He made his televised debut on the November 13 episode of FCW TV, teaming with Colin Cassady and Mike Dalton in a losing effort against The Ascension.
[13] On the July 15 episode of NXT, after nearly three months of coaxing, Jordan finally agreed to a match with Gable as his tag team partner, where they defeated Elias Samson and Steve Cutler.
[14] On the September 2 episode of NXT, Jordan and Gable competed in the first round of the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic tournament, defeating Neville and Solomon Crowe.
[15] On September 26 at a live event, they defeated The Hype Bros in the second round before falling to Baron Corbin and Rhyno in the semi-finals at NXT TakeOver: Respect.
[16] Originally villains, Jordan and Gable turned into fan favorites during this match by showing fighting spirit and resiliency against Corbin and Rhyno.
[18] On the January 27, 2016, episode of NXT, Jordan and Gable began using the name American Alpha and defeated Blake and Murphy.
[33] American Alpha then seemed to quietly split up, as Gable began wrestling by himself, including getting a championship match with Kevin Owens on the June 20 episode of SmackDown Live.
[38] This would lead to a six-man tag team match at SummerSlam, where Jordan and The Hardy Boyz were defeated by The Miz and The Miztourage.
[39] On the September 18 episode of Raw, Jordan would win a Six-Pack Challenge match to become number one contender for the Intercontinental Championship against The Miz.
Due to his leg injury, he was out of the Survivor Series match and was replaced by the returning Triple H, who gave Jordan a pedigree.
Later that night, Jordan cost Rollins and Reigns a match for the Raw Tag Team Championship, before Kurt Angle sent him home.
[3] Jordan made his first television appearance in over two years on the May 29, 2020, episode of SmackDown, walking alongside police officers who were arresting Jeff Hardy.
[57] On the December 9, 2022, episode of SmackDown, Jordan made an appearance during the birthday celebration of his storyline father Kurt Angle.
