Nathan Jones (born 21 August 1970) is an Australian actor, strongman, powerlifter, and former professional wrestler. He is best known for his time in World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) and World Wrestling All-Stars (WWA).
A delinquent in his youth who served a prison sentence for armed robbery, Jones began his athletic career as a powerlifter and strongman, representing Australia in the World's Strongest Man competitions of 1995 and 1996. He made his acting career debut that same year in Police Story IV: First Strike (1996), opposite Jackie Chan. He began his wrestling career for Australian promotion WWA, followed by a stint in WWE, where he was billed in "The Colossus of Boggo Road" in reference to his criminal convictions.
Jones retired from wrestling in the late 2000s, and has since focused on acting. He portrayed supporting villain Rictus Erectus in Mad Max: Fury Road (2015) and its 2024 prequel Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga. He also appeared in films such as Troy (2004), Tom-Yum-Goong (2005), Fearless (2006), Conan the Barbarian (2011), Hobbs & Shaw (2019), and Mortal Kombat (2021), usually playing antagonists.
