Early lives[edit]

  • Albert's parents were divorced ever since he was young which might have led him to a great depression which might have led him to wrestling.[5]
  • TaDarius grew up in poverty and was always bullied growing up so he found sports and activities such as boxing, mma and other things to get out of poverty which might have led him to professional wrestling.[6][7]
  • Athena (Associate) grew up watching Trish Stratus, Victoria, Lita and Rikishi which may have inspired her to become a female professional wrestler and she was also maliciously bullied by her peers in school growing up which also might have led her to professional wrestling.[8][9]

History[edit]

Ring of Honor (2011; 2012; 2013–2016)[edit]

Adrenaline Rush formed at the wrestling company Ring of Honor (ROH). The group primarily consisted of ACH and TaDarius Thomas. ACH and TaDarius Thomas wrestled in many matches together and in a lot of tag team matches together, even though the two never captured any singles or tag team ROH gold they still were an outstanding tag team.[10][11][12][13]

TaDarius wrestled in ROH ever since 2011[14] as a solo competitor, ACH joined in 2012[15] as a solo competitor as well and was apart of a ROH stable by the name of Team Rnb alongside Athena.[16][17] Afterwards Team Rnb split-up and ACH and TaDarius ran into each other forming the tag team Adrenaline Rush.[18][14][2]

The two also teamed in ROH in excellent ROH matches and at ROH Pay-per-views such as Supercard of Honor VII, Border Wars (2013), Best in the World 2013 and more, all the way until sometime during year 2014. ACH & TaDarius even teamed for the ROH World Tag Team Championship against ReDRagon (Bobby Fish & Kyle O'Reilly) twice but we're not successful.[18][14]

Athena Reese mostly wrestled in matches against Leah Von Dutch, Jenny Rose, Barbi Hayden, MsChif, Cherry Bomb, & Scarlett Bordeaux in her time at Ring of Honor Wrestling (ROH), Due to ROH not having a Women's Championship back then like the company does now of days such as the ROH Women's World Championship and the now retired ROH Women of Honor World Championship Athena just like the rest of the back in the day ROH Women during that period of time when it came to gold never was successful even thought the Shimmer Championship was defended at ROH probably one or more times for their women's division at Ring of Honor Wrestling (ROH) throughout the time period of 2013 to 2015.[19][20][21]

ACH, TaDarius Thomas, and Athena Reese also had a phenomenal match against Michael Elgin, BJ Whitmer and MsChif on an episode of Ring of Honor Wrestling (ROH), but were not successful.[3][4]

Lack of capturing gold in ROH (reasoning)_ (2011, 2012, 2013–2015)[edit]

The ROH Pure Championship was retired and during that time period there was no such thing as the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championship during that time period as well, plus there was no ROH Women's Championship either during that time period, which might have been the main reason why Adrenaline Rush was never successful at winning any ROH championship gold. The only titles ROH had during that time period were the ROH World Championship, the ROH World Television Championship, and The ROH World Tag Team Championship.[13]

Disbandment in 2014; 2015; 2016[edit]

After a while Adrenaline Rush were disbanded somewhere in 2014 when ACH and TaDarius Thomas had a one on one feud match with each other after that TaDarius had joined a heel ROH professional wrestling stable called The Decade[22] and somewhere around that time Athena Reese was released from Ring of Honor Wrestling (ROH) and approximately 2 years later slowly after Athena's release TaDarius & ACH were released from ROH Wrestling as well at separate times. TaDarius Thomases release was in 2015 and ACH's release was somewhere in 2016 afterwards Lio Rush replaced him in the inaugural Ring of Honor Wrestling (ROH) ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championship Tournament Finals which for some reason ACH could not finish competing in the inaugural ROH 6-Man tournament, his departure from the company might have been the reason why which his former teammates Jay White, Kushida and his replacer Lio Rush in the finals for the Ring of Honor inaugural 6-Man World Tag Team title tournament were not successful at winning the inaugural ROH 6-Man championships against The Kingdom at Final Battle of year 2016.[23]

Personal lives[edit]

  • ACH joined WWE NXT as Jordan Myles but was later released due to a clothing merchandise incident of his that happen design in which he thought was racist.[24][25][26] It is also rumors that he is in a relationship with WWE interviewer Kayla Braxton.[27]
  • TaDarius is happy and married to his wife and is a proud father to their son together.[28]
  • Athena is happily married to her spouse Matthew Palmer.[29][30][31]
