On 23 February 2011, Haste made his debut in Pro Wrestling Noah as he had a tryout match against his teammate Mikey Nicholls.[11] A month after the try-out match, both men started to work full-time with the Japanese promotion. On 7 July, Haste and Nicholls, known together as The Mighty Don't Kneel (TMDK), won the GHC Tag Team Championship after they defeated Toru Yano and Takashi Iizuka.[12][13][14] At the end of 2013, the Tokyo Sports magazine named Haste and Nicholls the tag team of the year, making them the first foreign team to win the award since Stan Hansen and Vader in 1998.[15] They lost the title to Maybach Taniguchi and Takeshi Morishima on 25 January 2014.[16][17][18]

They regained the title from Dangan Yankies (Masato Tanaka and Takashi Sugiura) on 10 January 2015.[19] They lost the title to K.E.S.

edit

In June 2015, Haste and Nicholls took part in a WWE tryout camp.[33] In February 2016, it was reported that Haste and Nicholls were scheduled to join WWE's NXT brand following their Noah farewell tour.[34] On 25 March 2016, WWE confirmed the signings of both Haste and Nicholls, and they began training at the WWE Performance Center, while working for the promotion's developmental branch NXT.[1] On 19 May, Haste and Nicholls were renamed Shane Thorne and Nick Miller, respectively, while TMDK was renamed TM-61.[35] They debuted on 25 May episode of NXT, losing to Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa.[36] In October, TM-61 entered the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic tournament,[37] in which they defeated Riddick Moss and Tino Sabbatelli in the first round,[38] Austin Aries and Roderick Strong (Thorne defeated Strong in a singles match, due to Aries being unable to wrestle through injury) in the quarterfinals,[39][40] and SAnitY in the semifinals.[41] At NXT TakeOver: Toronto, TM-61 lost in the finals to The Authors of Pain.[42][43] Thorne then had knee surgery in January 2017, which was expected to sideline him for seven to nine months.[44] Thorne returned from injury on 14 September.[45][46] TM-61 returned to television on 31 January 2018 episode of NXT, defeating The Ealy Brothers.[47] TM-61 then entered the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic tournament, being eliminated by The Authors of Pain in the first round.[48] On 2 May episode of NXT, TM-61 defeated The Street Profits with a dirty pin, thus turning heel in the process.[49][50] On 6 June episode of NXT, the team was renamed The Mighty.[51] On 28 November episode of NXT, The Mighty lost to Oney Lorcan and Danny Burch in what would be their final match as a tag team.[52] On 14 December, Miller was released from his WWE contract, disbanding the team.[53]

On 22 January 2019, WWE announced that Thorne would be replacing Otis Dozovic in the Worlds Collide tournament.[54] Thorne was eliminated in the first round by Adam Cole.[55] Following this, Thorne would mainly wrestle at NXT live events for the next several months. Thorne would then return to television on 7 August episode of NXT, defeating Joaquin Wilde. On 11 September episode of NXT, Thorne would interrupt Johnny Gargano as he was cutting a promo to the crowd which resulted in Thorne getting super kicked by Gargano. The two faced off on 2 October episode with Gargano defeating Thorne.

Main roster (2020–2021)

edit
Main article: Retribution (professional wrestling)

In March 2020, Thorne began appearing on Raw alongside his former TMDK stablemate Brendan Vink.[56][57] On 27 April episode of Raw, Thorne and Vink became MVP's newest associates, as he challenged Cedric Alexander and Ricochet to a match the next week on their behalf.[58] On 4 May episode of Raw, Thorne and Vink defeated Alexander and Ricochet, earning their first victory.[59] However, their alliance with MVP ended after they were both traded back to NXT and Thorne and Vink would quietly disband as a team soon after.[60]

On 21 September 2020 episode of Raw, Thorne was revealed as one of the main members of the Retribution faction, under the new ring name Slapjack.[61] At the Hell in a Cell event, Slapjack challenged Bobby Lashley for the United States Championship, but lost.[62] Retribution disbanded at the Fastlane Kickoff Show, where Reckoning and Slapjack walked out on leader Mustafa Ali, then T-Bar and Mace performed a double chokeslam on Ali after he lost a match for the WWE United States Championship to Riddle.[63] On 9 April episode of SmackDown, Slapjack took part in the André the Giant Memorial Battle Royal but failed to win the match.[64] Following this, Slapjack would be taken off television for several months. Following the split of Retribution, Veryzer would be quietly moved to SmackDown in April. He wrestled in a dark match after the 16 July episode of SmackDown under his original Shane Thorne name. He would wrestle two more dark matches in September with a loss to Keith Lee and a win over Austin Theory respectively. On 18 November 2021, Thorne was released from his WWE contract without ever reappearing on television.[65]

New Japan Pro-Wrestling (2022–present)

edit

On 6 March 2022 episode of NJPW Strong, Haste interfered in the tag team match between FinJuice (David Finlay and Juice Robinson) and the pairing of Jonah and Bad Dude Tito. He attacked Robinson while the referee was distracted, allowing Tito to hit a frog splash on Robinson for the win.[66] This saw the reformation of TMDK, with Haste and Jonah tagging together (as Jonah was a member of the stable on the Australian independent scene). On 3 April episode of NJPW Strong, Haste caused a disqualification loss to FinJuice after he struck Robinson with a steel chair. Robinson challenged TMDK and Tito to a Chicago Street Fight at Windy City Riot, alongside a mystery partner.[67] At the event, TMDK and Tito were defeated by FinJuice and their partner, revealed to be Brody King.[68] On 14 May, at Capital Collision, Haste reunited with Mikey Nicholls, as TMDK defeated the United Empire.[69] Haste and Nicholls then entered a tournament to become the inaugural Strong Openweight Tag Team Champions, but were defeated in the semi-final to the pairing of Christopher Daniels and Yuya Uemura.[70]

In September, Haste made his debut in Japan for NJPW, working tag matches alongside Jonah and Bade Dude Tito. The following month, Haste and Tito teamed at NJPW Strong: New Japan Showdown, competing in a four-way tag-team match to become the number one contenders for the Strong Openweight Tag Team titles, but the match was won by Stray Dog Army (Barrett Brown and Misterioso).[71] In November, Haste reunited with Mikey Nicholls, where the duo teamed together in the World Tag League.[72] The duo finished with a total of 12 points, narrowly failing to advance to the finals.[73] On 4 January 2023 at Wrestle Kingdom 17, Haste competed in the New Japan Rambo, but failed to last till the final 4.[74] Later in the show, Nicholls and Haste approached Zack Sabre Jr., who had just won the NJPW World Television Championship, and offered him a TMDK shirt, which he accepted, officially joining the stable.[75] The following day at New Year Dash!!, Sabre Jr teamed with Nicholls and Haste to defeat Chaos (Hirooki Goto, Tomohiro Ishii and Yoshi-Hashi). At the event, the trio also added young lion, Kosei Fujita as a new member.[76]

The victory at New Years Dash caused Haste and Nicholls to be in contention for Bishamon's (Goto and Yoshi-Hashi's) IWGP Tag Team Championships. Haste and Nicholls received their title shot on 5 February at The New Beginning in Sapporo, but were unsuccessful in defeating Bishamon.[77] In April, the duo faced new champions Aussie Open (Mark Davis and Kyle Fletcher) for the titles, but again failed to capture the titles.[78]

In July, Haste was announced to be a part of the 2023 G1 Climax tournament, his first NJPW singles tournament.[79] Haste competed in the D Block, finishing with 5 points, thus failing to advance to the quarterfinals.[80]

Pro Wrestling Guerrilla (2022–present)

edit

On 1 May 2022, at Delivering the Goods, Haste was defeated by Jack Cartwheel; it was his first match in Pro Wrestling Guerrilla since 2009.[81] On 3 July, at Nineteen, Haste defeated Titus Alexander.[82]
