Just came across this. From article:

Big E Langston winning the NXT title: “Big E Langston had a huge night as the powerhouse has something, likely ‘it,’ that connects with the audience at least the audience @FullSail. E has a legit 575 pound bench press and was a former Florida high school amateur wrestling champion while going to Iowa to play defensive tackle for the Hawkeyes before an injury derailed his gridiron career. I’ve been a supporter of Big E’s for quite some time and feel that if he keeps evolving, working tirelessly to improve all phases of his game and avoids self destructive incidents that he’s another NXT talent who is main roster bound. When? That’s anyone’s guess. Look in the mirror, Big E because there’s the answer.”

Here's the Iowa profile:

A little off-topic, but, for WWE fans, Seth Rollins (of the new group The Shield) is from Davenport, Iowa. He was known on the independent wrestling scene as Tyler Black. Good to see some Iowa-based guys making it big in WWE.
