At the age of ten, Hardie first saw professional wrestling, when he was invited to a friend's house, where World Championship Wrestling (WCW) was on the television.

After high school, he decided to pursue a career in professional wrestling.

Hardie was trained by Jerry Reyes and Scot Summers and made his professional wrestling debut in February 2007.
