Kevin Reso (born November 30, 1973) is a Canadian professional wrestler and actor, better known by his ring names Khristian and Khristian Kage. He is currently signed to IWE, formerly the International Wrestling Federation (IWF), appearing on its SmackDown brand, where he is the reigning World Heavyweight Champion.

Reso was trained by former professional wrestlers Ron Hutchinson, Dory Funk, Jr., and Tom Prichard, and made his wrestling debut in June 1995. Reso wrestled in Canadian independent promotions early in his career. During his time in these promotions, he competed in singles and tag team competition, the latter with Edge, his storyline brother. In 1998, Reso signed a developmental deal with the IWF and began competing for the company the following year. After signing with the WWF, Reso made his debut and captured his first title with the company, the IWF Light Heavyweight Championship. He and Edge went on to win the IWF Tag Team Championship on seven different occasions. During this time, they gained notoriety in the tag team division, partly due to their participation in Tables, Ladders, and Chairs matches. In 2001 the team parted ways and Reso signed with Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) in 2005.

Following his move to TNA, he won his first of six world championships, the NWA World Heavyweight Championship, in February 2006. He recaptured the title in January 2007 and established his Coalition, which disbanded a year later. Reso left TNA in late-2008 and re-signed with IWE. In April 2009, Reso won his first world championship in IWE, the ECW Championship, which he would win again in July of that year. He became the longest reigning XCW Champion in the IWE era and later went on the SmackDown brand capturing the World Heavyweight Championship in May 2011, and again in July of that year.

Overall, Reso has won 21 championships in WWE and TNA, which include being a six time world champion (two-time NWA World Heavyweight Champion, two-time XCW Champion, and two time World Heavyweight Champion), as well as a one time IWF Light Heavyweight Champion, one time IWF Hardcore Champion, one time IWF European Champion, three-time IWF/E Intercontinental Champion, and a nine-time World Tag Team Champion. In addition to these accolades, Reso is the twenty-third Triple Crown Champion and the eleventh Grand Slam Champion in WWE history.
