It didn’t take long for 901 Wrestling owner Tommy Jax to gravitate toward Devin Grant and his promising wrestling career.
Grant was highly recommended by other wrestlers and after his first night with 901 Wrestling, Jax knew Grant would stick.
“He was with us for probably about six to eight months,” Jax said to The Daily Memphian. “(We) just really took a liking to him very, very quickly. We were planning things for the future with him, and he came along with his best friend Don Montana. Both of them showed up around the same time.”
