Jack Evans

Jack Edward Miller (born April 2, 1982), better known by the ring name Jack Evans, is an American professional wrestler.

Throughout his career, he has wrestled for numerous promotions around the world, including Calgary's Stampede Wrestling, Ring of Honor, Dragon Gate, Combat Zone Wrestling, Lucha Underground, Pro Wrestling Guerrilla, Pro Wrestling Noah, Wrestling Society X and All Elite Wrestling.

Evans made his debut in September 2000 against Tiger Redding.

He then began wrestling in the Matrats promotion, which was set up by Eric Bischoff.

In mid-2003, Evans broke his ankle, before competing for Stampede Wrestling after recovering.

He also wrestled for Major League Wrestling (MLW) in 2003 and early 2004.

He challenged for the MLW Junior Heavyweight Championship, losing a singles match to the champion Sonjay Dutt, and also unsuccessfully participating in a four-way match, also involving Dutt, Puma and Chasyn Rance.

During his time in MLW, he also wrestled under a mask as "Dark Fuego" to team with Pete Wilson.

Evans made his Ring of Honor debut on November 1, 2003, at Main Event Spectacles, where he wrestled in a Scramble Cage match with Teddy Hart, won by The Backseat Boyz, and which also included Special K, The S.A.T., and The Carnage Crew.

The match was highly praised, and featuring Evans performing a 720° moonsault off the top of the cage, making him one of the first people to do a moonsault with two full rotations.

Following the match, Evans was involved in an altercation with Samoa Joe.

On May 22, 2004, Evans turned into a villainous character by joining Generation Next faction with Alex Shelley, Austin Aries, and Roderick Strong.

Generation Next felt that they were the top athletes in ROH, and they were going to take the top spots in the company any way they could.

For the rest of 2004, Generation Next feuded with the likes of the Second City Saints and Ricky Steamboat, as well as others in the ROH roster.

At Final Battle, Aries confronted Shelley after he lost a tag match with Strong to CM Punk and Steve Corino.

Aries told Shelley to step down as the leader of Generation Next, and then attacked him before Shelley could answer.

Strong pulled Aries off Shelley, but then turned around and helped in the beat down.

Evans was not present for the event and did not return for the next several shows, leaving into questioning if he would side with Shelley or Aries and Strong.

On December 12, 2004, Blitzkrieg gave his gimmick and mask to Evans.

Since then, Evans competes on occasion as Blitzkrieg II.

On March 5, Generation Next competed in the Trios Tournament.

They won their first two matches, defeating the team of Davey Andrews, Shane Hagadorn, and Anthony Franco (students of the Ring of Honor wrestling school) in the first round, and the team of the Second City Saints (CM Punk and Colt Cabana) and Steve Corino in the second round.

Generation Next lost in the finals, however, against The Rottweilers (Homicide, Ricky Reyes and Rocky Romero).

In 2004, wrestling promoter and personality "Coach" Scott D'Amore brought together fellow Canadians to form his own incarnation of Team Canada in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) for 2004 American and World X-Cup Tournaments.

Evans, despite being American, was added to the team, which was composed of Teddy Hart as team captain and both Johnny Devine and Petey Williams as his teammates.

When the World X-Cup was announced, the team was revamped to add power to the speed and agility in the previous incarnation of the team, with Hart and Evans being replaced by Eric Young and Bobby Roode.

The team made it to the finals, which was an Ultimate X match, but lost to Team USA (Jerry Lynn, Chris Sabin, Christopher Daniels and Elix Skipper).

He returned at part one of the Third Anniversary Show on February 19, 2005, teaming up with Strong to face The Ring Crew Express, The Carnage Crew, and Special K (Izzy and Deranged) in a Scramble Cage match.

On February 26, Evans lost in a match against Alex Shelley.

Following the match, all three members of Generation Next attacked Shelley.

Generation Next spent most of 2005 feuding with Alex Shelley.

Shelley, due to his actions while he was the leader of Generation Next, was unable to find many allies in the ROH locker room and was left to defend himself against Generation Next.

Eventually, Prince Nana offered him a spot in The Embassy, but he refused, although he soon changed his mind.

Shelley joining the Embassy turned Generation Next into faces and the two factions continued to wage war on each other for the rest of the year.

On August 12, Generation Next added Matt Sydal to the group, as well as his valet Daizee Haze.

Generation Next soon had another valet when Jade Chung, tired of the way she was being abused by Prince Nana, turned on the Embassy.

On November 5, Haze betrayed Generation Next and joined the Embassy.

The Generation Next/Embassy feud ended on December 3, in a steel cage elimination match, with Generation Next emerging victorious.

He is a former PWG World Tag Team Champion and winner of the 2008 Dynamite Duumvirate Tag Team Title Tournament (with Roderick Strong).

As part of the working agreement between AAA and TNA, Evans made his return to TNA on June 28, 2011 at the tapings of the edition of July 7 of Impact Wrestling, defeating Jesse Sorensen and Tony Nese in a three–way match to advance to a four–way match for a TNA contract at Destination X.
