American Ninja Warrior 12
After he failed to get a call for American Ninja Warrior 11, Thomas returned to compete in American Ninja Warrior 12. He dedicated his qualifying run to his new wife, Zoe, who suffered a brain tumor after a series of migraines back in February. She was admitted into ICU for surgery in order to remove the tumor. The operation was a success, and she has since made a full recovery. With Zoe watching on the virtual sidelines, Thomas scaled the Warped Wall and became the first finisher of the night. He ended up coming in at 3rd place overall at the end of the night and advanced to the semi-finals. In the Semi-finals despite failing on the 8th obstacle Corkscrew still finished in 10th place on the night and earned a ticket to the finals.

In the finals he sped through the first two obstacles before trying a linking technique on Falling Shelves, that technique was not allowed and to avoid disqualification he reset and attempted the transition and failed there.

American Ninja Warrior 13
Thomas competed in the first night of qualifying on American Ninja Warrior 13 and his run was fast forwarded. He made it to Split Decision and elected to go the path of the Spinning Log and fell there, ultimately ending his season. This marked the first time he ever failed to complete a qualifying course, let alone reach the national finals.
