As a kid, Jordan’s interest in wrestling was inspired by World Wrestling Federation wrestlers like Ultimate Warrior and Macho Man Randy Savage. He went on to compete at the University of Nebraska, where he was undefeated in both his Junior and Senior seasons, and was a two-time National Champion and the Hodge Trophy winner (wrestling’s Heisman trophy). Jordan won his first World Championship in 2011 and became an Olympic gold medalist in 2012.

Jordan and his wife, Lauren, are the proud parents of five children. They live in Philadelphia.
