Real Name: Jason Reso
Height: 6'1"
Weight: 227 lbs
Birthday: November 30, 1973
Hometown: Kitchener, Ontario
Aliases:The Canadian Rage, Christian Cage, The Suicide Blonde
Former Tag Team Partners: Adam Copeland--High Impact and The Suicide Blondes
He started training with Ron Hutchinson at Sully's Gym in Toronto in the fall of 1994. Hutchinson states: "Cage was a good student and a fast learner. After 9 months of training I felt that this young man from Orangeville was competent enough to make his ring debut. Now, unlike a lot of schools you must understand that I have two criteria for deeming my students competent enough to work. One...they don't embarrass themselves out there and...TWO (and more importantly!)* they don't embarrass me!!"
Cage made his debut against fellow trainee Zakk Wylde in June 1995. The match went to a draw. From there, he has spent time wrestling in southern Ontario, the Maritimes, Michigan, Pennsylvania and southern States.
Cage grew up with Copeland in Orangeville, and often went to see his friend's matches, as Copeland started training in 1992. It made sense for the two to tag up, and as the Suicide Blondes -- Christian Cage and Copeland as Sexton Hardcastle -- they made young hearts flutter. In the summer of 1997, they wrestled in the Maritimes for Emile Dupre's Atlantic Grand Prix promotion, and feuded with The Super Models (Rick Martel and Don Casablancas -- better known now as The Jackyl)*. But the two have also competed against each other, including a match at Hamilton's Copps Coliseum on May 3, 1998 where Copeland, under his real name beat Cage.
In mid-1998, Cage got his break and went to the WWF training camp. He impressed enough that in August 1998, he was signed to a contract.
It looks like the WWF is setting him up in the Gangrel-Edge feud, maybe
even making him an old friend of Edge (actually brother) who is now a
vampire under Gangrel's control.
