Finlay debuted in 2021 wrestling on the independent circuit. On September 26, 2021, he made his NJPW Strong debut, where he teamed with his brother David Finlay.[1] On August 20, 2022, he made his Game Changer Wrestling debut at GCW Hope To Die pay-per-view.[4]
WWE (2023–present)
Debut; Chase University (2023–2025)
In December 2023, it was reported that Finlay had signed to WWE.[5][6][7] On March 5, 2024 at NXT: Roadblock, Finlay made his WWE debut under the name Uriah Connors against Shawn Spears, which he lost.[2] In 2024, Connors formed a tag team with Kale Dixon and in early 2025, the pair started a storyline with Andre Chase in a bid to reform the Chase University stable. On the April 22, 2025 episode of NXT, Chase reformed Chase U with Connors and Dixon.[8] On the May 20 episode of NXT, Dixon and Conners wrestled their first match as a tag team in Chase U's first match since its reformation but lost to the returning OTM (Bronco Nima and Lucien Price).[9] On the June 3 episode of NXT, Chase, Dixon and Conners teamed for the first time, where they lost to DarkState (Cutler James, Dion Lennox, and Osiris Griffin) in a six-man tag team match.[10]
The Birthright (2026–present)
On the February 3, 2026 episode of NXT, following a loss to Lexis King and Channing "Stacks" Lorenzo in a tag team match with Dixon, Connors walked out on Chase U and joined King, Stacks and Arianna Grace, turning heel in the process. The group was later known as The Birthright, which consists of second generation WWE wrestlers–King is the son of Brian Pillman; Lorenzo is the fiancé of Grace, who is the daughter of Santino Marrella; and Charlie Dempsey, who joined later and is the son of William Regal.[11][12][13]
