**Rycklon Edward Stephens** (born April 22, 1978)[4] is a Guyanese-American [professional wrestler](/source/Professional_wrestling). He is best known for his tenure in [WWE](/source/WWE) from 2007 to 2014 where he performed under the [ring name](/source/Ring_name) **Ezekiel Jackson**, where he was the final [ECW Champion](/source/ECW_World_Heavyweight_Championship) under WWE's [ECW](/source/ECW_(WWE_brand)) [brand](/source/WWE_brand_extension), as well as a former [WWE Intercontinental Champion](/source/WWE_Intercontinental_Championship).[5][6]

Stephens made his professional wrestling debut for the California-based promotion [Ultimate Pro Wrestling](/source/Ultimate_Pro_Wrestling) in 2007 under the ring name Big Ryck Hytz. He was then signed by WWE in 2007 and sent to their then-[developmental territory](/source/Farm_team), [Florida Championship Wrestling](/source/Florida_Championship_Wrestling), under the new ring name Rycklon, which was later changed to Ezekiel Jackson after his main-roster debut in 2008. During his time in WWE, Jackson was the final man to win the ECW Championship, his only professional wrestling world championship, making him the third African American to hold the ECW championship, the sixth [black](/source/Black_people) [world champion](/source/World_Heavyweight_Championship_(professional_wrestling)) (after [The Rock](/source/Dwayne_Johnson), [Booker T](/source/Booker_T_(wrestler)), [Bobby Lashley](/source/Bobby_Lashley), [Ron Simmons](/source/Ron_Simmons), and [Mark Henry](/source/Mark_Henry)), and the first South American -born champion in WWE history. He later joined [The Corre](/source/The_Corre) but was kicked out, thus starting a feud with the stable's leader [Wade Barrett](/source/Wade_Barrett) and he would go on to win the WWE Intercontinental Championship once.

Jackson would leave WWE in 2014 and briefly wrestle for [Total Nonstop Action Wrestling](/source/Total_Nonstop_Action_Wrestling) (TNA) later that year. He also competed in one season of [Lucha Underground](/source/Lucha_Underground) from 2014 to 2015 as Big Ryck. He retired from fulltime wrestling in 2015 and is the owner of the [Redwood City, California](/source/Redwood_City%2C_California)-based [professional wrestling promotion](/source/Professional_wrestling_promotion) and [school](/source/Professional_wrestling_school) Bryckhouse Pro Wrestling.

## Professional wrestling career

### World Wrestling Entertainment/WWE (2007–2014)

#### Florida Championship Wrestling (2007–2008)

Stephens signed a developmental contract with World Wrestling Entertainment in March 2007 and debuted in [Florida Championship Wrestling](/source/Florida_Championship_Wrestling) (FCW) in late June.[4] In his debut match on June 27, he teamed with [Keith Walker](/source/Keith_Walker_(wrestler)) to defeat [Kofi Kingston](/source/Kofi_Kingston) and [Eric Pérez](/source/Eric_P%C3%A9rez).[4] He continued to compete in the [promotion](/source/Professional_wrestling_promotion) in both tag team and singles matches. On February 8, 2008, he competed in a match with tag partner [Bryan Kelly](/source/Byron_Saxton) in a losing effort against [Steve Lewington](/source/Steven_Lewington) and [Heath Miller](/source/Heath_Slater) in a mini-tournament to face the [WWE Tag Team Champions](/source/WWE_Raw_Tag_Team_Championship) [John Morrison and The Miz](/source/John_Morrison_and_The_Miz).[4] On May 6, 2008, Stephens wrestled his final match in FCW before being called up to WWE's main roster.[4]

#### The Brian Kendrick's bodyguard (2008–2009)

After being trained in FCW, Stephens debuted on the July 18, 2008, episode of *[SmackDown](/source/WWE_SmackDown)* under the name Ezekiel, as [The Brian Kendrick](/source/Brian_Kendrick)'s [bodyguard](/source/Enforcer_(professional_wrestling)).[8] On the August 8, 2008, edition of *SmackDown*, his ring name was tweaked to Ezekiel Jackson, and he was revealed as being Kendrick's "advisor". He then began interfering in Kendrick's matches against [Jeff Hardy](/source/Jeff_Hardy), [Finlay](/source/Dave_Finlay), and [WWE Champion](/source/WWE_Championship) [Triple H](/source/Triple_H). On the October 17 episode of *SmackDown*, Jackson made his official in-ring debut by [quickly defeating](/source/Squash_(professional_wrestling)) [Super Crazy](/source/Super_Crazy), after replacing a supposedly sick Kendrick.[9] In late 2008, Jackson began [teaming](/source/Tag_team) with Kendrick and both began [feuding](/source/Feud_(professional_wrestling)) with the [WWE Tag Team Champions](/source/WWE_Raw_Tag_Team_Championship) [The Colóns](/source/The_Col%C3%B3ns_(2002%E2%80%932010)) ([Carlito](/source/Carlito_(wrestler)) and [Primo](/source/Primo_Col%C3%B3n)), although Kendrick and Jackson failed to win the championship.[10][11][12] He suffered his first defeat on the February 13, 2009, episode of *SmackDown*, when he lost a singles match to [R-Truth](/source/Ron_Killings).[13] Jackson made his final appearance on the SmackDown brand in a losing effort against [Jeff Hardy](/source/Jeff_Hardy) on the April 3, 2009, episode.[14]

#### The Ruthless Roundtable and ECW Champion (2009–2010)

On April 15, 2009, Jackson was drafted to the [ECW](/source/ECW_(WWE)) brand as part of the [2009 Supplemental Draft](/source/2009_WWE_Draft#Supplemental_Draft), therefore breaking up the team of himself and Kendrick.[15] He made his ECW debut defeating Jack Meridol on the July 9, 2009, episode.[16] Jackson then began an angle with [Vladimir Kozlov](/source/Vladimir_Kozlov) in which, week after week, after one of them had squashed a local competitor, the other would come out and hit their finishing move on the fallen opponent in a game of [one-upmanship](/source/One-upmanship).[17][18][19][20] On the August 18 episode of *ECW*, Jackson formed an [alliance](/source/Glossary_of_professional_wrestling_terms#Stable) with Kozlov and [William Regal](/source/William_Regal) after [betraying](/source/Glossary_of_professional_wrestling_terms#Turn) the [ECW Champion](/source/ECW_World_Heavyweight_Championship), [Christian](/source/Christian_(wrestler)), during a tag team match to side with them, and attacking Christian at Regal's request.[21] Kozlov and Jackson aided Regal in his feud with Christian over the ECW Championship, but Regal was unable to capture the title.[22][23]

Jackson at the 2010 *[Tribute to the Troops](/source/WWE_Tribute_to_the_Troops)* show

On the November 24 episode of *ECW*, Jackson attacked both Regal and Kozlov after Kozlov accused Jackson of costing Regal a match.[24] The following week, Jackson once again betrayed Kozlov and Regal by walking out on Kozlov during a tag team match against Christian and [Shelton Benjamin](/source/Shelton_Benjamin).[25] Jackson, however, realigned himself with Regal, when he was aided by Regal in defeating Kozlov on an episode of *ECW*. On the January 12, 2010, episode of *ECW*, Jackson won the ECW Homecoming battle royal to earn a match for the ECW Championship.[26] He faced Christian for the ECW championship at the [Royal Rumble](/source/Royal_Rumble_(2010)) pay-per-view but was unsuccessful.[27] On the final episode of *ECW* on February 16, Jackson defeated Christian to win the ECW Championship in an [Extreme Rules match](/source/Professional_wrestling_match_types#No_Disqualification_match/No_Holds_Barred_match).[5][28] Upon winning the title, WWE credits Jackson as the final ECW Champion.[5]

#### The Corre and Intercontinental Champion (2010–2011)

Main article: [The Corre](/source/The_Corre)

On the February 19 episode of *SmackDown*, a video package aired, promoting Jackson's return to the brand.[29][30] He made his return on the March 5 episode of *SmackDown* without Regal, who instead joined *[Raw](/source/WWE_Raw)*, and defeated [Jimmy Wang Yang](/source/James_Yun).[31] On April 10, 2010, at a house show in Glasgow, Scotland, Jackson suffered a tear in his right [quadriceps muscle](/source/Quadriceps_femoris_muscle) during a match against [Kane](/source/Kane_(wrestler)), and was expected to be inactive for approximately six months.[32] During his injury, Jackson was drafted to the Raw brand as part of the [2010 WWE Supplemental Draft](/source/2010_WWE_Draft#Supplemental_Draft).[33]

Jackson made his return to the ring on September 14, 2010, defeating [Zack Ryder](/source/Zack_Ryder) in a [dark match](/source/Glossary_of_professional_wrestling_terms#Dark) prior to the *Raw* tapings.[34] He returned to television on the October 18 episode of *Raw*, where he was revealed as a member of Team Raw for the [Bragging Rights](/source/Bragging_Rights_(2010)) pay-per-view.[35] At Bragging Rights, Jackson was one of the final two remaining members of Team Raw, but they lost to Team SmackDown.[36] On the November 22 episode of *Raw*, Jackson qualified for the [2010 edition](/source/King_of_the_Ring_(2010)) of the [King of the Ring](/source/King_of_the_Ring) tournament by defeating [Alex Riley](/source/Kevin_Kiley_(wrestler)), who replaced Jackson's original opponent [The Miz](/source/Mike_Mizanin).[37] He faced [Drew McIntyre](/source/Drew_McIntyre) in the quarter-finals, but the match ended in a double countout, so neither advanced.[38]

In December 2010, Jackson was traded back to the SmackDown brand.[2][39] On the January 11, 2011, taping of the January 14 edition of *SmackDown*, Jackson joined [Wade Barrett](/source/Wade_Barrett), [Justin Gabriel](/source/Justin_Gabriel) and [Heath Slater](/source/Heath_Slater) in assaulting The [Big Show](/source/Big_Show), appearing to form an alliance with the three.[40][41] The following week the group was named [The Corre](/source/The_Corre).[42] On the May 6 episode of *SmackDown*, Jackson defeated Big Show in a singles match, but refused to celebrate with the other members of The Corre afterward. Backstage, the other members of The Corre attacked him in retaliation, turning Jackson face.[43] Jackson went on to face Barrett for the [Intercontinental Championship](/source/WWE_Intercontinental_Championship) at [Over the Limit](/source/Over_the_Limit_(2011)), and won by disqualification, which meant that Barrett retained the championship.[44] Jackson continued to feud with the other members of The Corre, winning against Barrett by disqualification and countout respectively.[45][46]

On June 19, at the [Capitol Punishment](/source/WWE_Capitol_Punishment) pay-per-view, Jackson defeated Barrett to win the Intercontinental Championship for the first time.[6] Jackson successfully retained the championship in a rematch against Barrett on the following episode of *SmackDown* and also successfully defended it against [Ted DiBiase](/source/Ted_DiBiase%2C_Jr.) on the July 15 episode.[47][48] On August 12 episode of *SmackDown*, Jackson lost the Intercontinental Championship to [Cody Rhodes](/source/Cody_Rhodes), ending his Intercontinental Championship reign at 51 days.[49] He went on to feud with both Rhodes and DiBiase. On the August 19 episode of *SmackDown*, he lost a rematch for the championship to Rhodes.[50] Jackson was part of a ten-man battle royal for the Intercontinental Championship, but was eliminated by Rhodes.[51]

#### Final feuds and departure (2012–2014)

On January 29, 2012, at the [Royal Rumble](/source/Royal_Rumble_(2012)) pay-per-view, Jackson entered the Royal Rumble match as the thirteenth entrant, but he was eliminated by the returning [Great Khali](/source/The_Great_Khali).[52] Jackson started a losing streak losing to the likes of [Jinder Mahal](/source/Jinder_Mahal), [Drew McIntyre](/source/Drew_McIntyre), and [David Otunga](/source/David_Otunga). Jackson finally ended his losing streak by teaming with The Great Khali to defeat the team of Curt Hawkins and Tyler Reks on the May 16 episode of *[NXT](/source/WWE_NXT_(TV_series))*. However, he lost to the Big Show on the May 26 episode and May 27 episode of Smackdown.

Around mid–2012, Jackson suffered an upper body injury and was inactive for many months. After almost a year of inactivity due to his injury, Jackson returned at a live event for [WrestleMania Axxess](/source/WrestleMania_Axxess) on April 4, 2013, by teaming up with [Yoshi Tatsu](/source/Yoshi_Tatsu) to defeat the team of [Hunico](/source/Hunico) and [Camacho](/source/Tevita_Fifita).[53] On January 4, 2014, Jackson announced he was undergoing another surgery.[54] As a result of this, on April 6, 2014, Jackson reported that he had officially parted ways with the WWE.[55][56]

### Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (2014)

He made his debut, along with [Gene Snitsky](/source/Gene_Snitsky), in [Total Nonstop Action Wrestling](/source/Total_Nonstop_Action_Wrestling) (TNA) on the June 25 taping of *Impact Wrestling* (which aired on July 24) using the ringname **Rycklon** as a [heel](/source/Heel_(professional_wrestling)); attacking [Tommy Dreamer](/source/Tommy_Dreamer), [Bully Ray](/source/Bubba_Ray_Dudley) and [Devon](/source/D-Von_Dudley), and aligning himself with [Dixie Carter](/source/Dixie_Carter_(wrestling)). It also marked the very first time that the final champion of the original and the new ECW were in the ring at exactly the same time (Rhino and Rycklon)[57][58][59] Rycklon and Snitsky were fired by Dixie Carter on the August 7 edition of *Impact Wrestling*. Earlier on the show they had competed in an Eight-Man Hardcore War between Team EC3 ([EC3](/source/Ethan_Carter_III), [Rhino](/source/Rhyno), Rycklon and Snitsky) in a losing effort against Team Bully (Bully Ray, Devon, [Tommy Dreamer](/source/Tommy_Dreamer) and [Al Snow](/source/Al_Snow)).[60][61]

### Lucha Underground (2014–2015)

In September 2014, Stephens worked at [Lucha Underground](/source/Lucha_Underground) under the ring name Big Ryck, where he was forming a heel trio named The Crenshaw Crew with Cisco, [Bael](/source/B-Boy_(wrestler)) and [Cortez Castro](/source/Ricky_Reyes).[1][62] Ryck feuded with Johnny Mundo and Prince Puma. Their feud concluded in a three-way ladder match, which was won by Mundo. On the October 5, 2014, taping, Ryck participated in an Aztec Warfare Battle Royal to crown the first Lucha Underground Champion but was eliminated. On January 21, 2015, Cisco, Castro and Bael attacked Ryck and burned his eye with a cigar, turning face in the process. Ryck returned to action on February 25, 2015, distracting The Crew in a match against Sexy Star, Mascarita Sagrada, and Pimpinela Escarlata. On March 4, 2015, Ryck defeated Star to earn a match against The Crew. Ryck defeated The Crew in a one-on-three handicap match. On February 8, 2015, Ryck, along with [Killshot](/source/Shane_Strickland) and [Willie Mack](/source/Willie_Mack) participated in a tournament for the Lucha Underground Trios Championship, but they were defeated in the finals by the eventual winners Angélico, Son of Havoc and Ivelisse.[63] After their loss, Ryck left Mack and Killshot and was hired by [DelAvar Daivari](/source/DelAvar_Daivari), attacking Texano on May 20, 2015, turning heel in the process. At Ultima Lucha, Daivari ran out and distracted Ryck by firing him, hinting at a face turn. However, nothing came of this due to Stephens departing Lucha Underground in 2015 due to traveling conflicts.[*[citation needed](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citation_needed)*] It was revealed that Big Ryck was one of five missing people on the April 20 episode of Lucha Underground. In the four-issue miniseries following that, it explaining what had happened after Ultima Lucha and before season two. It was revealed that Ryck was "killed" by The Disciples of Death, officially writing his character off the show.

### International promotions (2015–present)

Stephens would make his in-ring return in March 2025, nearly 10 years after his last match.[69][70] He competed in a triple threat match at FWE Full Throttle against Psycho Boy Fodder and [Sylvain](/source/Sylvain_Grenier) for the FWE Heavyweight Championship, and was unsuccessful in winning the championship.[71]
