Kassius Ohno is such a rare and interesting story. Most fans will always see this guy as Chris Hero, the indie darling. However, he has been given something that not very many people get....a second chance. From released for being overweight and the original member of the Shield to being given another chance; things have come full circle.
Ohno isn't built like the cookie-cutter “sports entertainer,” BUT, he is definitely a great wrestler. Ohno has been accused in the past of lacking discipline, which is possibly why he has a typical “dad bod.” But, make no mistake about it, this veteran of nearly 20 years is more than capable of not only being a valuable asset but actually carrying the Yellow Brand if need be.

About the author
J. Carpenter
Jonathan Carpenter is a pro wrestling journalist at Sportskeeda. After obtaining a degree in political science from the University of Arkansas at Little Rock, he started writing WWE articles in 2016. Jonathan believes integrity is vital in journalism and ensures his work is high on accuracy. He conducts in-depth research and verifies information from various sources before curating a feature.
Jonathan has engaged in many meaningful conversations with prominent pro wrestling personalities like Drew McIntyre and DDP. He grew up in Memphis, admiring Hall of Famer Hulk Hogan during WWE’s Golden Era in the ‘80s. He has attended many pro wrestling events and credits The Hulkster for making his childhood memorable.
Jonathan, a big fan of Bray Wyatt, would like to see the latter's brother, Bo Dallas, continue his legacy as Uncle Howdy. If he were to work on the storyline, Jonathan would book the return of Erick Rowan as Howdy’s muscle. He thinks it would be a great way to honor the former Universal Champion.
When not writing pro wrestling features, Jonathan likes to collect sports memorabilia and has amassed a large collection of event-used and autographed relics over the years.
