Simon Gotch

Seth Lesser, born on October 18, 1982, is an accomplished American professional wrestler, widely recognized by his ring name, Simon Gotch. Currently active on the independent circuit, Gotch has made a significant mark in the wrestling world, particularly during his tenure with WWE. He is celebrated for his role in the tag team The Vaudevillains, alongside Aiden English, where they captured the NXT Tag Team Championship and showcased their unique persona on the SmackDown brand.

Before adopting the Simon Gotch persona in 2013, he wrestled under the name Ryan Drago from 2002 to 2013, drawing inspiration from the early 20th-century wrestling era.

After parting ways with WWE, Gotch transitioned to using the name Simon Grimm but regained the rights to Simon Gotch in April 2018. His journey through various wrestling promotions, including Major League Wrestling (MLW), reflects his versatility and dedication to the craft, as he continues to engage fans with his performances on the independent circuit.
