While the likes of Zach Gowen, Chris Melendez, and Steve Chamberland have been aided by the fact that they at least have one of their legs, the same can’t be said for Dustin Thomas.
Nicknamed “No Legs” for the simple fact he has no legs, Thomas was born with a spinal issue and had to have both of his legs amputated by the time he was three years old. This would be devastating to most people, but due to the fact that the double amputation came at such a young age, life without any legs is all Thomas has ever known, so he’s never let his disability get in his way.
Thomas grew up as a wrestling fan and even has an amateur wrestling background, with the fact that he has no lower body making him eligible for much lighter weight classes. He even joined the wrestling program that former UFC Heavyweight Champion Jon Jones was a part of, meaning that he is no slouch when it comes to his ground game, but he can also navigate the ropes as good as anyone with all four limbs, even adopting Rey Mysterio’s 619 as his finishing move.
In recent years, it has been Game Changer Wrestling that Thomas has called home, routinely showing up during their WrestleMania weekend shows to take part in their “Clusterf**k” battle royal matches, while also having standout matches with the likes of Joey Janela and Tony Deppen. Thomas can also make the claim of being part of AEW history as he was one of the 21 men to take part in the Casino Battle Royale at the company’s Double or Nothing pay-per-view back in 2019, meaning that Thomas wrestled in the first-ever AEW match.
