In March of 2007, an on the job back injury left him without employment. Once recovered, he spent the following six months on the road, wrestling across nine different states five days a week, trying to kick-start a full time wrestling career. In April, he caught a freelance gig covering the Virginia Tech Massacre in Blacksburg, Va for his old station, WCHS. After suffering a serious head injury in September of that year, Jeff spent three months recovering and contemplating his future. He then got a job at WDBJ's Blacksburg bureau, shooting news, while applying to grad schools.

He covered the Sago mine disaster on January 2, 2006, with some of his early, on-the-scene footage picked up by national news. Later that year, he moved to Radford, Virginia to work at WFXR in Roanoke, where he produced three "doctor on call" segments and the "Out and About with Natalie Faunce" series every week.

Jeff graduated in 2000 from Teays Valley Christian School, and spent the next five years studying English and Communications at West Virginia State University. Out of school, Jeff got a job working as a television news photojournalist at WCHS in Charleston. He also started his professional wrestling career at this time.

In 1996, he earned a role in The Real Stories of the Highway Patrol in a reenactment.

Jeffrey David Thomas was born in 1982 in Charleston, West Virginia, and moved to the small town of Hurricane, WV in 1986.
