American Alpha is a professional wrestling tag team, composed of former amateur wrestlers Jason Jordan and Chad Gable, performing in WWE on the SmackDown brand, where they are the current SmackDown Tag Team Champions in their first reign.

While competing in WWE's NXT brand, they became one-time NXT Tag Team Champions, and are the only tag team to have won tag team championships in both NXT and WWE's main roster in the same year.

Starting in May 2015, NXT newcomer Chad Gable began a storyline with Jason Jordan, in which he tried to convince Jordan to form a new partnership, following the dissolution of Jordan's team with Tye Dillinger. After nearly two months of coaxing, Jordan finally agreed to a tag match with Gable as his teammate. On the July 15 episode of NXT, Jordan and Gable were successful in their official debut together against the team of Elias Samson and Steve Cutler. On September 2, Jordan and Gable competed in the first round of the Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic tournament, beating the team of Neville and Solomon Crowe. After defeating the Hype Bros, they would get eliminated from the tournament, by the team of Baron Corbin and Rhyno. Originally a heel tag team, their fighting spirit and resiliency against their larger opponents won them many fans and began a gradual babyface turn for the pair. On the November 18 episode of NXT, Jordan and Gable would call out main roster tag team The Ascension and defeat them. On the December 2 episode of NXT, Jordan and Gable would face another pair of former NXT Tag Team Champions The Vaudevillains and defeat them as well. At NXT TakeOver: London Gable and Jordan were successful in a fatal 4 way tag team match which was taped for the December 23rd episode of NXT. On the January 8 of NXT tapings, the team of Jordan and Gable began using the name "American Alpha".
