WWE star Lexis King’s nephew is set to receive the National Student Hero Award after tipping off police about a potential mass shooting.

On February 12, current NXT star Lexis King took to social media to praise his nephew Jackson Swallen, the grandson of King’s late father Brian Pillman, who is set to receive the National Student Hero Award.

Swallen will receive the award after tipping police about a potential mass shooting at Mariemont High School.

King retweeted the WCPO tweet highlighting his award, writing:

“This is my nephew Jackson Swallen. As you can probably tell he’s got the genes of his late grandfather Flyin Brian Pillman! 15 years old and already a national hero, we are all so proud of him!!!”

Lexis King, real name Brian Pillman Jr., is the son of WWE Hall of Famer Brian Pillman and currently on the NXT brand. He previously worked for All Elite Wrestling from 2019 to 2023. He also worked with MLW and across the independent scene.

WrestleTalk would like to congratulate King’s nephew Jackson Swallen for this great honor.
