Jason Reso started his wrestlng career by training with Ron Hutchison at Sully's Gym in Toronto in 1994. From there he wrestled in many different indy federations with long time friend, Adam Copeland (Edge).Reso and Copeland wrestled as a tage team many times, under the names of High Impact and the Suicide Blondes. After Copeland got his big break with the WWF, he recommended Mr. Reso to WWF officials. Reso entered WWF training camp in mid 1998, and was signed to a contract in August of 1998. He was first seen on WWF television at Breakdown in September of 1998, when he appeared at ringside during a match between Edge and Owen Hart. His ring debut came a month later, at October's Judgement Day,where he was accompanied by Gangrel. He managed to upset Taka Michinoku, thus capturing the Light Heavyweight Title. Soon after, the Brood was formed...comprising of Christian, Gangrel, and Edge. A month later, he lost the Light Heavyweight Title to Duane Gill (with the help of the JOB Squad). To this day, he continues to be the little silent guy in the Brood. But he never fails to impress with his aerial assaults and high flying action.
