About Otis
A former amateur standout at Colorado State University–Pueblo and Greco-Roman Pan-American Games medalist, Otis made his WWE main roster debut in 2019 as one-half of Heavy Machinery alongside Tucker Knight before breaking out as a singles performer. He captured the 2020 Men’s Money in the Bank ladder match and later teamed with Chad Gable in Alpha Academy, winning the Raw Tag Team Championship in January 2022. Known for his powerhouse style, infectious crowd connection, and the Caterpillar finishing elbow, he became one of Raw’s most reliable fan favorites across multiple character runs.
Following a babyface turn that saw him physically confront and walk out on Gable in 2024, Otis stepped away from WWE television in mid-2025 due to injury, undergoing arthroscopic elbow surgery. He is now back in action, with WWE announcing his appearance at NXT house shows the weekend of June 18–20, 2026, in Kentucky and Indiana — signaling a return to in-ring competition alongside Akira Tozawa and Grayson Waller.
