Achievements/Awards:
2014 TAG TEAM OF THE YEAR AWARD!
Other: Trained by the Harley Race Wrestling Academy in Eldon Missouri, the brothers known as Southern Comfort have been working small time indie shows in the southern United States for the past 4 years. Never seeming to be able to take that next step to the next level, Austyn and Jackson have been languishing in obscurity. While it hasn't helped their wallets any it has helped them hone their in ring skills, to the point that they were voted in 2011 as the Best Unsigned Tag Team on the Indie Scene. Now with opportunity knocking, the brothers are ready to step up and take what they have been hungering for their entire careers.
Arriving in EWS, it took little time for Austyn and Jackson to make it big. Quickly winning the PWR Tag Team Championships, they would also with the St. Louis Rage Tag Team Championships only two days later. Three months after that, they would capture their first WORLD Tag Team Championship and win their second set of WORLD Tag Team Championships a year later. Currently signed to the RSPW Brand, Austyn and Jackson still have a ton to prove and want to take their craft all around the world.
Austyn is outspoken and quick to speak his mind while Jackson is even quicker to anger and rush to fight without thinking of the consequences. Jackson doesn't say a whole lot, prefers to do his talking in the ring.
