Viktor is one of the most popular and richest Professional Wrestler who was born on December 4, 1980 in Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Eric Thompson (born December 4 August, 1980) is an Canadian professional wrestler who is most well-known for his stint in WWE under the name of the ring Viktor.

In the year that WWE changed its name to the development territory FCW to NXT and Victor’s NXT debut on television took place in the June 20 episode of the rebranded NXT which was taped in Full Sail University, where the wrestler was defeated by Bo Dallas. In the episode of September 12 of NXT, Victor confronted and hit Seth Rollins, the NXT Champion Seth Rollins, leading to Rollins being defeated by Victor during a title-less fight on September 19th the 19th of September, 2012 NXT.

Viktor, alongside Konnor made his main roster debut on the September 9, 2014 episode of Main Event, with the duo defeating Los Matadores (Diego and Fernando) in a tag-team match to promote their NXT tag title defense against The Lucha Dragons (Kalisto and Sin Cara) at the NXT TakeOver: Fatal 4-Way event. On the December 12 episode of SmackDown, vignettes began to air promoting The Ascension’s call-up to the main roster. The Ascension made their debut on the December 29 episode of Raw, quickly defeating The Miz and Damien Mizdow. The Ascension would continue to squash local athletes three weeks in a row on Main Event while indirectly criticizing of The Road Warriors. Their first major victory as part of the main roster was a win over The New Age Outlaws at the Royal Rumble. The Ascension suffered their first pinfall loss on the main roster on February 23 episode of Raw, losing to The Prime Time Players (Darren Young and Titus O’Neil). At WrestleMania 31, The Ascension made their WrestleMania debut in the André the Giant Memorial Battle Royal where both failed to win the match. On the May 11 episode of Raw, during a match between Curtis Axel and Macho Mandow, in the guise of Randy Savage, The Ascension attacked Axel and Mandow. It was then announced that the Ascension would face Axel and Mandow on the Payback pre-show, where they won the match. It was announced the Ascension would par take in a six team elimination chamber match for the WWE Tag Team Championship. At Elimination Chamber on May 31, he and Konnor eliminated Los Matadores and The Lucha Dragons until they were eliminated by The Prime Time Players, ultimately losing the match.

Victor resurfaced nearly a year later in NXT when he became Conor O’Brian’s partner in The Ascension. On September 12, The Ascension defeated Adrian Neville and Corey Graves to win the NXT Tag Team Championship. On November 10, O’Brian and Victor’s ring names were changed to simply “Konnor” and “Viktor”, respectively. On February 27, 2014 at NXT Arrival, he and Konnor successfully defended their championships against Too Cool, repeating the feat on May 29 at NXT TakeOver, against El Local and Kalisto. At the NXT TakeOver: Fatal 4-Way, The Ascension lost the titles to The Lucha Dragons (Kalisto and Sin Cara), ending their reign a day short of a full year. That same night, they were in an altercation with NXT General Manager William Regal and the debuting Hideo Itami. After feuding with and assaulting Itami for several weeks, a second international wrestler, Finn Bálor, joined Itami in his fight against both Konnor and Viktor. This led to a match on December 11 at NXT TakeOver: R Evolution, where The Ascension were defeated by Bálor and Itami.

In February of 2011, Thompson signed a developmental contract with WWE and was assigned to their development area Florida Championship Wrestling under the Ring nickname Rick Victor. Victor was telecast to make his appearance in the ring in the show’s May 29 show on FCW TV, teaming with Leo Kruger in a loss to Hunico and Epico. In the July 31 episode on FCW TV, Victor challenged Seth Rollins for his FCW 15 Championship and was defeated. From April through the month of May, Victor joined forces with Anti-Divas (Sofia Cortez and Paige). In an FCW show on June 16 2012 Victor beat Seth Rollins to take home the FCW Florida Heavyweight Championship for the first time. Following that he was relegated against Bo Dallas in another match. He won the title back from Dallas at a different FCW show on July 13th, 2012 which made him a double champion. Victor lost his title Richie Steamboat a week later. On July 28 Victor was the winner of his first Florida Tag Team Championship with Brad Maddox.
