[edit] Career

[edit] NWA Wildside

Cross debuted in the Georgia-based NWA Wildside promotion in 1998, and won the NWA Wildside Heavyweight Championship from David Young in Cornelia, Georgia on June 1, 2002. He held the title for just ten days before announcing his retirement from wrestling and vacating the title on June 11. However, his retirement did not last long. Upon his return, Cross turned heel and sided with Jeff G. Bailey's NWA Elite faction, betraying Rick Michaels in the process. The newly turned Cross then went on an undefeated streak, at one point "retiring" Altar Boy Luke. With the help of the rest of NWA Elite, Cross defeated Caprice Coleman for the NWA Wildside Television Championship on March 27, 2004 in Cornelia. He held the title until July 3, when he lost to Jeremy V. Two months later, he regained the NWA Wildside Heavyweight Championship by defeating Onyx. His second reign lasted until December 4 of that year, when he lost to Ray Gordy.

Cross left NWA Wildside in January 2005 after agreeing to work for Georgia Championship Wrestling during a Wildside TV taping, leading to a disagreement between Cross and Wildside officials.

[edit] Total Nonstop Action Wrestling

Cross debuted in Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) on December 11, 2002, losing to Tony Mamaluke on the PPV. He became #1 contender to the X-division title on two separate occasions, challenging Sonny Siaki and Kid Kash. Cross was absent from TNA for most of 2004, but returned in August, facing A.J. Styles on several occasions. On November 7, 2004, at TNA Victory Road 2004, he took part in a 20-Man X Division Gauntlet. Cross entered at number fourteen, and was eliminated by Psicosis following a Inverted DDT.

[edit] Georgia Championship Wrestling

Cross joined GCW in 2004, and won the GCW United States Junior Heavyweight Championship on September 7, defeating the wrestler in Columbus, Georgia. He lost the title to Glen Gilberti on October 14, but regained it on November 27 of that year in a three way match which also included Nigel McGuinness. His second reign continued into 2005, but on February 20 he was stripped of the title after he was disqualified during a title defence against David Young and attacked the referee in a fit of anger. He regained the vacant title on March 19, defeating Young in a best of three series, and lost the title for a third time on April 2, this time to "Primetime" Elix Skipper in a three way match which also included Gilberti.

Cross became the first ever GCW National Television Champion by defeating Young in the finals of a tournament in Columbus, Georgia on April 16. He lost the title to Gilberti on May 21 in a four way match. Shortly thereafter, Damien Steele defeated Gilberti to win the title, then defeated Skipper to unify the GCW National Television and United States Junior Heavyweight Championships. Cross defeated Steele to win the unified title on July 23, 2005, but lost to Gilberti once more on August 6.
