Name: John Thomas
Nickname: Jay T
Hometown: New York City, New York.
Alignment: Real.
Biography: Thomas graduated with highest degrees in media and journalism in New York in the 80's where he then went on to become the youngest play by play radio announcer for the New York Mets, and New Jersey Nets for over a decade.
Thomas moved on to ESPN Radio for 4 years before signing a major deal with FOX Sports Radio in the late 90s.
Covering a wide world of sports until 2017 when FOX Sports re-upped on Thomas' contract. FOX Sports signed him to a 10 year, 20 million dollar deal (2mil/year) to exclusively cover Action Wrestling on their new Television Show "The John Thomas Report". The 30 minute show running monday through friday pulls in roughly 3million viewers an episode every morning, while his nationally syndicated XM radio show "Thomas The Take Engine" pulls in massive listeners as he covers more than just AW for 3 hours every Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
Thomas is known for his outlandish takes, wild opinions, and his aggressive style of ranting and "telling it like it is".
"If you don't like my BRASH ATTITUDE, my in your face style, then thats on you. I don't care if you love me or hate me, but you listen to me."
John Thomas and Action Wrestling don't have a great relationship as Thomas tries to get inside sources and exclusive reports, but AW has kept him away from inner-dealings.
