John Stagikas (born July 31, 1979) is an American professional wrestler, better known by his ring name, RJ Brewer. Brewer is known for his appearances with Lucha Libre USA, where he portrayed a conservative supporter of Governor of Arizona Jan Brewer and Arizona SB 1070 opposed to illegal immigration to the United States. He is also known for his appearances elsewhere on the independent circuit as "Hurricane" John Walters, including with Ring of Honor, where he is a one time Pure Champion.
Stagikas attended Framingham High School, where he was a wide receiver on the football team and graduated in 1997. He also played volleyball and basketball in high school. He then attended Assumption College in Worcester, Massachusetts, where he played football for a further two years as a wide receiver until his career was ended by an operation to remove a cyst from his neck in his junior year. Stagikas graduated in 2001 with a degree in Communications.
After his neck surgery forced an end to his football career, Stagikas applied to several wrestling schools, and eventually joined Killer Kowalski's school in Malden, Massachusetts on January 27, 2001. He trained under Kowalski for five months.
