He signed a contract with WWE's developmental system in July 2011, and found moderate success as one-half of the penultimate [[http://www.wrestling-titles.com/us/fl/nxt/fcw-fl-t.html FCW Florida Tag Team Champions]] with CJ Parker before the titles were deactivated upon the switch from FCW to NXT. However, he struggled to gain any momentum under the revamped system for several years. In July 2015, fortunes changed when formed the tag team Wrestling/AmericanAlpha with Chad Gable, with the duo capturing the NXT Tag Team Championships before being drafted to ''[[Wrestling/WWESmackDown SmackDown]]'' and winning the [=SmackDown=] Tag Team Championship. In 2017, American Alpha disbanded after Jordan debuted on the ''[[Wrestling/WWERaw Raw]]'' brand as the ({{kayfabe}}) son of Raw General Manager Wrestling/KurtAngle. On the 2017 Christmas edition of ''Raw'', he teamed up with Wrestling/SethRollins to become the WWE Raw Tag Team Champions. They lost the titles a month later at ''Wrestling/RoyalRumble 2018'', and since then Jordan not wrestled due to suffering a neck injury that required surgery, and currently works backstage as a producer.

* GameBreakingInjury: Had to undergo surgery for a neck injury suffered during a January 2018 live event. It was serious enough that not only has Jordan been off TV ever since. Jordan was transferred over to a Producer role not long after and became the lead producer for both Raw and SmackDown in 2021, all but confirming that his in-ring career in over.

* RealityEnsues: After Tye Dillinger refused to tag him in not once, but three times during a match, Jordan got pissed off [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere and left Dillinger to get hammered]] by the Lucha Dragons. This led to a story line where he teamed with various WWE Superstars in an attempt to find a better tag partner. He eventually found one in Gable, who before long turned out to be more than a mere ReplacementGoldfish, creating the avenue for opportunity Jordan had been waiting on for ''years''.

* AbortedArc: At the beginning of 2018, Jordan was being booked with an increasingly arrogant and whiny attitude to draw heat from the crowd, which seemed to be blatantly leading up to a FaceHeelTurn and a feud with Wrestling/SethRollins (with whom he was teaming at the time) and, perhaps down the road, Wrestling/KurtAngle, but Jordan's neck injury and subsequent surgery derailed the storyline.



* SmallNameBigEgo: He's utterly convinced he's not just a suitable replacement for the sidelined Dean Ambrose as Seth Rollins' partner, he's ''superior''.

* TheFriendNobodyLikes: To Wrestling/TheShield, to the point that even calling him a 'friend' would be a misnomer. After Wrestling/DeanAmbrose got put on the shelf for nine months, Jordan won the tag titles with Wrestling/SethRollins in his place and tried to take his place in the Shield as a result. This failed ''miserably'', as Rollins can barely tolerate him, and only does so for the sake of the titles. To say nothing of Wrestling/RomanReigns, who borderline ''hates'' Jordan and took Ambrose's injury really badly.

To finally find themselves crowned as champions on a major stage with every fan in the arena supporting them, you can imagine why they were overwhelmed.

You can read an extensive article on his career on [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jason_Jordan his page]] over at [[Wiki/{{Wikipedia}} That Other Wiki]].
----
!!Tropes associated with Jason Jordan:
* AlliterativeName: '''J'''ason '''J'''ordan.
* CaptainErsatz: American Alpha appeared to be a two-man love letter to Wrestling/KurtAngle, and Jordan represented the matured Angle of the Wrestling/RuthlessAggressionEra—the intense badass wrestling machine who's come to own just how good he is and is capable of going on nigh-unstoppable tears. Bonus points for American Alpha also carrying similarities to [[Wrestling/TheWorldsGreatestTagTeam a certain team of former Angle protégés]], covered below.
* CharlesAtlasSuperpower: A former amateur wrestler, Jordan can throw full grown men around like paperweights.
* CompositeCharacter:
** American Alpha were seemingly composites of Kurt Angle and one of his former understudies, and in Jordan's case, as a black athletic prototypical wrestler, he hearkens back to Wrestling/SheltonBenjamin, but his moveset and intensity is more reminiscent of Ruthless Aggression Era Angle. He also has the legitimate amateur wrestling background to match both men as well. And in kayfabe, Jordan is revealed to be Angle's illegitimate son, making all this similarities even more striking. These similarities were {{Lampshade|Hanging}}d in one promo where Jordan almost called himself and Gable "The World's Greatest Tag Team" before Gable cut him off and asked him to stop, presumably out of respect for the original team.
** Outside the Angle-related comparisons, Jordan's strength, intensity, athletic prowess, and suplexing aptitude can evoke memories of Wrestling/ScottSteiner during his time in The Steiner Brothers before he became Big Poppa Pump. American Alpha even did their own version of the Steinerizer (an elevated diving bulldog) for a while, called Tech Fall.
* HeelFaceTurn: Yes, Jordan worked alongside Gable as {{heel}}s early on. However, fans loved them too much to boo them, and so they became cemented as {{face}}s through their gutsy performance in defeat against Baron Corbin and Rhyno in the semi-finals of the ''Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic'' tournament.
* LightningBruiser: The 245-pound (in billed weight) Jordan has a beautiful dropkick and incredible quickness in the ring.
* LovableJock: Essentially his gimmick in American Alpha as faces, particularly during their NXT run (characterization for tag teams tends to be more well-formed on NXT). They're very athletic and very confident in their athletic ability, but they also wrestle a skilled, clean match and come off as all-around nice guys.
* ManlyTears: The emotional resonance of the moment Jordan became NXT Tag Team Champions with Gable in Dallas was palpable, as both (especially Jordan) found themselves on the verge of breaking down. Their amateur wrestling careers had ended in disappointment (Everhart never managed to win the NCAA national championship ); and Jordan, despite his athletic raw talent, had spent years toiling away in WWE's farm system with only two weeks as a Florida tag team champion to show for it prior to his team with Gable. To finally find themselves crowned as champions on a major stage with every fan in the arena supporting them, you can imagine why they were overwhelmed.
* ReplacementGoldfish: Having ditched former tag partner Tye Dillinger, Jordan began a story line where he teamed with various WWE Superstars in an attempt to find a better tag partner. He eventually found one in Gable.
* SaltAndPepper: As part of American Alpha, Jordan has a more hot-headed personality, while Gable is more efficient, joyful, and relaxed.
* TookALevelInBadass: Teaming with Gable turned out to be the breakthrough Jordan needed, as they instantly started winning and dominating opponents, with Jordan breaking out more of his amateur wrestling background. Completed at [=TakeOver=]: Dallas, where they beat The Revival for the NXT Tag Team Championship.
