Powell's POV: Younger, who will turn 30 in September, started as a backyard wrestler and eventually made his way to the indy scene. He has worked for a number of promotions including Combat Zone Wrestling and Pro Wrestling Guerilla. He recently announced that he had a tryout at the WWE Performance Center, and obviously it appears that resulted in a developmental deal.
