Professional wrestling career

Total Nonstop Action Wrestling

Red Shirt Security

Wilson joined Total Nonstop Action Wrestling in September 2003 as one-half of a heel tag team, Redshirt Security, with Kevin Northcutt. Northcutt and Wilson were corrupt, physically imposing security guards (who wore red t-shirts) loyal to Don Callis and Jeff Jarrett, and regularly butted heads with the diminutive face "Blackshirt Security" (Chris Vaughn and Rick Santel). After Redshirt Security was expanded to three members with the addition of Legend in November 2003, the trio began feuding with the rebels who opposed the administration of Jarrett and Callis, namely Erik Watts, The Sandman and Raven. This lead to a six man Clockwork Orange House of Fun match on November 19, in which Wilson suffered a broken arm. He left TNA to allow his arm to heal and was replaced by Legend.

Titus

Wilson returned to TNA one year later as Titus, the bodyguard of Johnny Fairplay. The character was never televised, although Wilson made several dark appearances, including a victory over Dallas on November 19. Fairplay was not employed by TNA on a regular basis, and the Titus character was eventually discarded.

Trytan

In early 2005, video packages were aired hyping the debut of Wilson's latest incarnation, Trytan. Wilson began stalking Monty Brown, and would disrupt his matches, extending a hand towards Brown from the entranceway. This culminated in a match at Destination X 2005 on March 13. Brown eventually gained the upper hand over his much larger opponent, but as he prepared to hit his signature Pounce finishing maneuver, the arena lights went out. When the lighting was restored, a masked man was in the ring in place of Wilson. Brown Pounced and pinned the masked man and was awarded a victory, although he had been unable to gain a victory over Wilson. The masked man was later identified as Mideon, but was never properly included in the storyline.

Wilson's push was virtually halted following what many had perceived to be a disappointing match with Brown. He wrestled sporadically for TNA until May 2005, when he was placed in a tag team with Simon Diamond. Diamond and Wilson appeared at Slammiversary on June 19, defeating Apolo and Sonny Siaki in a tag match. However, Wilson left TNA the following month when his contract expired and was not renewed.

World Wrestling Entertainment

On November 14, 2005 Wilson signed a contract with World Wrestling Entertainment. He was assigned to the WWE developmental territory Ohio Valley Wrestling. He currently wrestles in Ohio Valley Wrestling as Tytus, making his debut at the January 18, 2006 OVW TV show, coming out alongside Da Beast.
