"Beast Mode"

There are few in TNA with the size, strength and power of "The Beast" Rob Terry. The man from Wales has been in TNA since 2009 and he has been carving a path of destruction.

Terry had a dominant singles run in 2010 by winning the Television Championship (then the Global Title). He plowed through his opposition in record time and held the title for nearly half a year before losing it to the "Phenomenal" AJ Styles in dubious fashion.

In 2011, "The Beast" was recruited by Ric Flair to become the muscle of Immortal. Terry was in a losing rivalry against Big Poppa Pump, Scott Steiner. Terry would later be ejected from the group after failing to impress.

Robbie E came to Terry later that year and hired him as his official bouncer. Terry would go by the name Robbie T and would aid Robbie E in becoming Television Champion. The two Robbies would become a cult hit with "The List" and their interesting relationship. Robbie E was semi-successful due to Bigger Rob with spectacular wins in 2012 including a count-out victory over Jeff Hardy.

However, this all changed in 2013. Following a bro-off between Robbie E and Jessie Godderz, Robbie T decided he wanted to be in on the fun. With his athletic dance moves, Terry won the bro-off and was cheered out of the building. Over the next few weeks, Robbie E would become jealous of his partner as he showed him up constantly. This all came to a boil at Lockdown where Terry plowed through Robbie E in quick fashion.

Terry is now once again on his own and there are no signs of slowing. He has remained undefeated in singles action since the split and has been growing his arsenal of moves. Using a high-impact spinebuster which he calls "The Beast Bomb," Terry has been able to demolish his opposition. There is nowhere for this Welshman to go but up.
