[edit] Career
Eamon Shrahan, know as a world class photographer[citation needed], left his home country of Ireland to train in England at the FWA Academy on January 20, 2002. At FWA:A Revolt in 2003, Eamon made his debut against Mark Underwood and has since then become a two time FWA Academy champion.
Eamon Shrahan's first title win came when he defeated one of the UK's best in the form of James Tighe on October 25, 2003.
Shrahan would trained in FWA:A along side Andrew Simmons, a man who he would later team up with, and feud against on a regular basis. The pair first fueded in the FWA Academy over its top title during one match between the two on January 17, 2004 saw Eamon Shrahan defeat Andy Simmons by knocking him unconscious with a piledriver (an illegal move in that promotion). After the match, Andy Simmonz thanked the fans for their support over the years, but Shrahan hit him with the FWA:A title belt.
Eamon Shrahan would lose the title later after offering Stixx a title shot at any time and place, an offer Stixx would take up after Shrahan had just finished a gruelling 20 minute battle with Chris Justice on February 21, 2004. However, Shrahan defeated Stixx in at FWA:A Final Battle on July 9, 2004 to give him his second title reign. Shrahan would lose the title to the man he made his debut against, Mark Underwood on October 15, 2004.
Eamon Shrahan, under the ring name Eamon O'Neill would branch out from the FWA after losing the title performing in various promotions under his own name and facing many other top English stars including the likes of Phil Powers, and Hade Vansen.
During this time Andrew Simmons (who would often wrestle under the name Andy Boy Simmonz) began teaming with Eamon O'Neill under the team names of The United Lions, and the Irish Connection. Though this would not stop the pair from facing off against each other; Eamon O'Neill, at one point would defeat Simmons in a match for the Catch Wrestling Council's All-In Championship, a title Simmons was holdng at the time.
