Brutus Creed Bio
Brutus Creed (born Drew Kasper on May 13, 1996, in Lexington, Ohio) is an American professional wrestler signed to WWE. He performs on the Raw brand as one half of the Creed Brothers and is a member of the stable American Made.
Trained at the WWE Performance Center, Brutus Creed emerged as a power-based tag-team specialist alongside his brother Julius Creed. The pair rose through WWE’s NXT brand before moving to the main roster, where they remain active competitors in the tag division.
Early Life and Background
Drew Kasper was born and raised in Lexington, Ohio, and wrestled at Lexington High School. He comes from a wrestling family: his younger and older brother Jacob Kasper also pursued collegiate wrestling and later joined WWE as Julius Creed.
Kasper attended Otterbein University in Westerville, Ohio, where he majored in exercise science and competed for the Otterbein Cardinals. He compiled a collegiate record of 108–13, became a two-time NCAA Division III All-American and finished his final season with a perfect 30–0 record before the 2020 NCAA championships were canceled.
Path to WWE
Brutus Creed’s path to WWE followed a strong amateur-wrestling foundation and a tryout at the WWE Performance Center. His brother Jacob drew early WWE attention after being scouted at collegiate events; Jacob signed with WWE in October 2020 and Drew followed with a three-year contract in February 2021.
Both brothers completed training at the WWE Performance Center and received new ring names in mid-2021. They debuted on taped NXT programming in August 2021, beginning their professional in-ring careers under the Creed Brothers banner.
Brutus Creed Career
Early Career (2020–2021)
Jacob Kasper signed with WWE in October 2020 after being scouted at the NCAA championships, and Drew Kasper signed in February 2021. The brothers reported to the WWE Performance Center for formal training and development.
In June 2021 the Kasper brothers were given the ring names Brutus Creed and Julius Creed. They made their in-ring debut at the August 24, 2021 NXT tapings, appearing as members of the Diamond Mine stable and establishing themselves as a powerful, heel tag team.
NXT Breakthrough (2021–2023)
The Creed Brothers made rapid progress through NXT tag-team competition. On February 15, 2022, they won the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic by defeating MSK at NXT Vengeance Day, marking their first major tournament victory on the brand.
At NXT In Your House on June 4, 2022, the Creed Brothers defeated Pretty Deadly to capture the NXT Tag Team Championship. Their reign ended on September 4, 2022, at Worlds Collide when Pretty Deadly regained the titles following interference in a match that also involved a turn by a Diamond Mine associate.
In mid-2023 the team was briefly written off NXT after a losing stipulation, but they returned later that summer and continued competing at a high level, building toward a main roster call-up.
WWE Raw Era (2023–Present)
The Creed Brothers, accompanied by fellow Diamond Mine member Ivy Nile, made their main roster debut on the October 30, 2023 episode of Raw. They officially joined the Raw roster on November 6, 2023, and immediately challenged established teams for tag gold.
On November 27, 2023, the Creed Brothers won a tag-team turmoil match to earn an Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship opportunity, but they fell short in a title match later that month. In July 2024 they aligned with Chad Gable and the group adopted the name American Made, shifting their role within Raw’s tag division and forming a multi-man stable around Gable’s leadership.
Driving Style and Strengths
