NXT (2020–2023)
In October 2020, Jacob Kasper was signed by WWE after being scouted by Gerald Brisco at the 2018 NCAA Division I Wrestling Championships and attending a try-out that June. In February 2021, Drew Kasper was signed to a three-year contract by WWE after attending a try-out at his brother's urging. Both men were assigned to the WWE Performance Center in Orlando, Florida for training. In June 2021, Drew and Jacob Kasper were respectively renamed "Brutus Creed" and "Julius Creed". In August 2021, the Creed Brothers appeared on NXT as members of Roderick Strong's Diamond Mine stable, establishing themselves as villains in the process. They made their in-ring debut at the August 24, 2021, NXT tapings (with their match airing on September 7, 2021), defeating Chuckie Viola and Paxton Averill in a squash.

On February 15, 2022, at NXT Vengeance Day, the Creed Brothers defeated MSK to win the Men's Dusty Rhodes Tag Team Classic. On June 4, 2022 at NXT In Your House they defeated Pretty Deadly to win the NXT Tag Team Championship. At Worlds Collide on September 4, 2022, the Creed Brothers lost the NXT Tag Team Championship to Pretty Deadly after Damon Kemp, a member of the Diamond Mine stable, turned on the Creed Brothers, costing them the match. In July 2023, the Creed Brothers lost to the Dyad in a "Loser Leaves NXT" match; they were reinstated the following month after defeating the Dyad in a cage match.

The Creed Brothers, along with fellow Diamond Mine member Ivy Nile, made their main roster debut on the October 30, 2023 episode of Raw, defeating Alpha Academy. At Halloween Havoc the following day, they defeated Angel Garza and Humberto Carrillo in a "Tables, Ladders, and Scares match" in their final match for NXT.

Raw (2023–present)
On the November 6, 2023 episode of Raw, the Creed Brothers (and Ivy Nile) formally joined the Raw brand. On the November 27 episode of Raw, the Creed Brothers won a tag team turmoil match for an Undisputed WWE Tag Team Championship title shot; however, they failed to defeat The Judgment Day (Finn Bálor and Damian Priest) for the titles on the December 18 episode of Raw. In July 2024, the Creed Brothers aligned themselves with Chad Gable by assisting Gable to attack Bo Dallas, turning heel for the first time since 2022 and for the first time on the main roster.

Professional wrestling style and persona
The Creed Brothers wrestle in a power-based style incorporating "slams, suplexes and collisions". Their finishing moves include a clothesline/sliding lariat. Their style has drawn comparisons to both the Road Warriors and the Steiner Brothers. Reflecting their amateur wrestling backgrounds, the Creed Brothers perform wearing wrestling singlets and wrestling shoes. Brutus Creed was described by WWE in 2021 as possessing "unbridled strength and a ruthless nature", while Julius Creed was described by WWE as possessing "uncontrollable aggression and an absolute sadistic nature".
