The Kasper Brothers are a professional wrestling tag team, consisting of brothers Jacob Kasper (born October 3, 1994) and Drew Kasper (born May 13, 1996). They are signed to All Elite Wrestling (AEW), where they perform under their real names. They are best known for their time in WWE as the Creed Brothers, where they performed under the ring names Julius Creed and Brutus Creed, respectively. Throughout their tenure in WWE, they were members of the Diamond Mine stable from 2021 to 2024, as well as the American Made stable from 2024 to 2026.
Jacob Kasper was born on October 3, 1994, and Drew Kasper was born on May 13, 1996, in Lexington, Ohio. They attended Lexington High School, where they both competed in amateur wrestling.
Jacob attended Duke University in Durham, North Carolina, where he studied sociology, graduating in 2018. During his time at Duke University, he participated in collegiate wrestling for the Duke Blue Devils and was diagnosed with Crohn's disease. He was a two-time National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) All-American and a three-time NCAA Academic All-American, and won the 2018 Atlantic Coast Conference heavyweight championship. He set a Blue Devils record for the most wins in a single season and ranked second for overall career wins. He participated in the 2016 Olympic trials in the Greco-Roman wrestling and freestyle wrestling categories, placing fifth. In 2017, he trained with mixed martial artist Daniel Cormier to help Cormier prepare for his bout with Jon Jones at UFC 214. In 2018, he began working for Duke University as an assistant wrestling coach.
Drew attended Otterbein University in Westerville, Ohio, where he majored in exercise science, graduating in 2020. During his time at Otterbein University he competed in collegiate wrestling for the Otterbein Cardinals, with an overall record of 108–13. He was a two-time NCAA Division III All-American. In his final year, he had a perfect 30–0 record and was ranked number one in the United States, but did not compete in the 2020 NCAA championships due to their cancellation as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.
In October 2020, Jacob Kasper signed a contract with WWE after being scouted by Gerald Brisco at the 2018 NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships and attending a try-out that June. In February 2021, Drew Kasper signed a contract with WWE after attending a try-out at his brother's urging. Both men were assigned to the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida for training.
In June 2021, Jacob and Drew were respectively renamed Julius Creed and Brutus Creed. In August 2021, the Creed Brothers appeared on NXT as members of the Diamond Mine stable. They made their in-ring debut at the August 24, 2021 NXT tapings (with their match airing on September 7, 2021), defeating local competitors Chuckie Viola and Paxton Averill in a squash. On February 15, 2022, at NXT Vengeance Day, the Creed Brothers defeated MSK (Nash Carter and Wes Lee) to win the Men's Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic. On June 4, 2022 at NXT In Your House they defeated Pretty Deadly to win the NXT Tag Team Championship. At Worlds Collide on September 4, 2022, the Creed Brothers lost the NXT Tag Team Championship to Pretty Deadly after Damon Kemp, a fellow member of the Diamond Mine stable, turned on the Creed Brothers, costing them the match.
In July 2023, the Creed Brothers lost to The Dyad in a "Loser Leaves NXT" match; they were reinstated the following month after defeating the Dyad in a cage match. At Halloween Havoc the following day, they defeated Angel Garza and Humberto Carrillo in a "Tables, Ladders, and Scares match" in their final match for NXT.
The Creed Brothers, along with fellow Diamond Mine member Ivy Nile, made their main roster debut on the October 30, 2023 episode of Raw, defeating Alpha Academy (Otis and Chad Gable). On the November 6 episode of Raw, the Creed Brothers (and Ivy Nile) formally joined the Raw brand. On the November 27 episode of Raw, the Creed Brothers won a tag team turmoil match for an Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship title shot; however, they failed to defeat The Judgment Day (Finn Bálor and Damian Priest) for the titles on the December 18 episode of Raw. In July 2024, the Creed Brothers aligned themselves with Chad Gable by assisting Gable to attack Bo Dallas. The stable of the Creed Brothers and Gable was subsequently dubbed American Made with Nile joining the stable later.
They appeared on the May 2, 2026 episode of AAA, where they attacked El Grande Americano and aligned themselves with "The Original" El Grande Americano. On the May 4 episode of Raw, the masked-up Creed Brothers were introduced as Los Americanos Hermanos (Bruto Credo and Julio Credo), joining "The Original" El Grande Americano in a trios match to defeat Los Americanos (El Grande Americano, Bravo Americano, and Rayo Americano). American Made was silently disbanded when Gable revealed himself to be "The Original" El Grande Americano after losing the Lucha de Apuestas Máscara contra Máscara No Disqualification match against El Grande Americano at Noche de Los Grandes on May 30 and turned face.
On the September 1, 2026 episode of NXT, the Creed Brothers returned to NXT and attacked Noam Dar, Romeo Moreno, Sean Legacy, and Dorian Van Dux. They wrestled their final match for WWE on the October 20 episode of NXT, where they lost to Hank and Tank (Hank Walker and Tank Ledger) in the quarterfinals of the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic. On November 6, it was reported that their WWE contracts had expired and they elected not to renew, ending their six-year tenure with the promotion.
On November 14, 2026 at Full Gear, Jacob and Drew made their All Elite Wrestling (AEW) debut under their real names, where they aligned themselves with FTR to attack Motor City Machine Guns and the reigning AEW World Tag Team Champions The Young Bucks.
The Creed Brothers wrestle in a power-based style incorporating "slams, suplexes and collisions". Their finishing moves include a clothesline/sliding lariat. Their style has drawn comparisons to both the Road Warriors and the Steiner Brothers. Reflecting their amateur wrestling backgrounds, the Creed Brothers perform wearing wrestling singlets and wrestling shoes. Brutus Creed was described by WWE in 2021 as possessing "unbridled strength and a ruthless nature", while Julius Creed was described by WWE as possessing "uncontrollable aggression and an absolute sadistic nature".
They made their video game debut as playable characters in WWE 2K23 and also appeared in WWE 2K24, WWE 2K25, and WWE 2K26.
