Peyton Prussin (born June 15, 2001) is an American professional wrestler currently signed to WWE, where she performs under the ring name Kendal Grey on the NXT brand.
Prussin was born in Las Vegas, Nevada and attended Arbor View High School before graduating from Life University with a Bachelor of Science in Biology degree. At a young age, she played many sports such as soccer, gymnastics, and jiu-jitsu before ultimately settling on amateur wrestling which she pursued in high school and college. Prussin became the first female to qualify for boy’s 4A state in Nevada during her sophomore year as well as a 10 time High School All-American, 2018 Fargo Runner-Up, 2018 Folkstyle Runner-Up, and 2018 Cadet World Team Trial Runner-Up. She also placed third at the 2018 Yoshida Saori Cup in Japan, became a 2019 Folkstyle National Champion, 2018 USA High School Wrestler of the Year Finalist, and a 2018 USA National Team member.[9] [10]
On January 26, 2023, it was announced that Prussin had signed with WWE as part of their NIL (name, image and likeness) program.[11] On the March 29, 2024 episode of NXT Level Up, Prussin made her in-ring debut under the ring name Kendal Grey teaming with Carlee Bright in a losing effort to Jakara Jackson and Lash Legend of The Meta-Four. On the June 14 episode of Level Up, Grey defeated Izzi Dame to earn her first singles win.[12] [13] On the June 18 episode of WWE NXT, Grey managed Bright in her match against Fallon Henley where she was attacked at ringside by Wendy Choo. On the July 23 episode of NXT, Myles Borne of No Quarter Catch Crew tried to interfere on Wren Sinclair's behalf against Carlee Bright which led to Grey confronting Borne and suplexing him on the outside. At NXT: The Great American Bash Week One, Grey made her televised in-ring debut against Jaida Parker where she was defeated after a distraction by Borne who Grey once again suplexed on the outside.[14] [15] [16] On the August 20 edition of NXT, Grey took part in a six-woman gauntlet match to determine the number one contender for Roxanne Perez's NXT Women's Championship at No Mercy, where she eliminated Brinley Reece but was then eliminated by the eventual winner Jaida Parker.[17]
