Perkins (or simply TJP) currently signed to New Japan Pro-Wrestling where he is a member of the United Empire stable. He also makes occasional appearances for Major League Wrestling. He is best known for his tenures in WWE and Impact Wrestling.
Perkins began his professional wrestling career in 1998. In 2001, he went to New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) Dojo, where he became the youngest wrestler to perform in a NJPW ring. Since then, Perkins worked in various U.S. promotions, such as Ring of Honor (ROH), Impact Wrestling, and WWE, as well as Japanese promotions, like NJPW and Dragon Gate. In 2013, Perkins signed a contract with Impact Wrestling (then known as Total Nonstop Action Wrestling) and worked as Manik, a masked character originally based on the Suicide gimmick. During his time in TNA, he would win the TNA X Division Championship. He also joined The Revolution stable. In 2016, he left TNA and participated in the Cruiserweight Classic tournament produced by WWE, which he won and was crowned the inaugural WWE Cruiserweight Champion. Perkins would work for WWE until his release in February 2019. He then returned to Impact Wrestling, as well as working in other companies on the side. In 2020, he won the Impact X Division Championship for a second time.
