[edit] Career

Chris Bosh is best known for his work in Pro Wrestling Guerrilla. He competed on the company's first show, losing a match to Excalibur. Bosh teamed with Quicksilver in the Tango & Cash Invitational tournament to determine the first ever PWG Tag Team Champions. They made it to the second round, but were eliminated by the X-Foundation. Bosh and Quicksilver would however win the titles a few months later from the X-Foundation. They only held the championship until the next show when they lost to Super Dragon and Excalibur.

In October, Bosh regained one half of the tag championship when he was chosen by Scott Lost to be his partner and hold the vacant half of the titles. They called themselves Arrogance and became the longest reigning champions before losing the titles to Scorpio Sky and Quicksilver. On September 4, 2005, Bosh became the winner of PWG's first Battle of Los Angeles tournament by defeating A.J. Styles in the final round. This win earned him a shot at the champion Kevin Steen. During the match, Bosh accidentally hit the referee with the Lioncock. Another referee came out and made the 3 cound on Steen, declaring Bosh the new PWG Champion. However, the first referee came to and disqualified Bosh, thus giving the title back to Steen.

After this, Bosh continud teaming with Scott Lost and Lost's former tag team partner Joey Ryan. With Lost, Bosh would help Ryan win many of his matches, especially once Ryan became PWG Champion. On May 20, 2006 at Enchantment Under the Sea, Arrogance faced Super Dragon and Davey Richards for the tag team championship. They won the match and formed a stable with Joey Ryan and Scorpio Sky called The Dynasty. This reign was not as long as the last, as they lost the titles just a few months later to Super Dragon and B-Boy.

Bosh also wrestles for many other companies. In May of 2005, he competed for Combat Zone Wrestling and was eliminated in the first round of their annual Best Of The Best tournament by Super Dragon.
