If the name Thomas Kingdon doesn't ring a bell, it's probably because the former competitive bodybuilder had a very brief and unmemorable stint with WWE's NXT. The 6'3", 300 lb. native of Michigan USA who also went b the name Big T Kingdon, had his first NXT match on September 26, 2015 and he was released several months later on July 28, 2016. In that time, he wrestled in only five matches (including a Battle Royale and a six-man tag team match) and won only one match with his tag team partner King Konstantine (aka Radomir Petkovic). No word what Kingdon is up to these days (his Twitter account has been inactive since 2017). Here are some pics from his posts here on
Beefcakes of Wrestling.

I think this guy did some muscle worship vids at some point. Not sure if it was before or after his wrestling stint. He was/is certainly impressive.
ReplyDeleteMuscle worship has always been the equivalent of a high school clothes-on rubdown, but I'll take whatever I can get now 😭
DeleteWow. NXT is where the muscle is at.
ReplyDeleteI think I posted this back when he was active in NXT, but for those who missed it, the NXT tag match mentioned above. He was very green and awkward, perhaps why he was cut. Anon.

I remember this. Makes me so sad. I was really hoping he'd get better
DeleteCan you find some Hugo Knox match?
ReplyDeleteCause i found nothing.
I've only ever managed to find one match from NXT.
DeleteHe got cut from WWE because the fat gross head coach Matt Bloom didn’t like bodybuilders without history in wrestling. All the other coaches loved him and didn’t agree with his cut. The problem was Matt Bloom never gave him opportunities to practice and get better. Also, he went back into Bodybuilding and won the overall and heavyweight division at the 2019 Europa in Orlando.
