Bio: He arrived in the GWA in mid August but was injured in his second match with Demonstar in which at the end of the match Demonstar hit him with a Twist of Cain that injured his already messed up head and ended up giving him a nasty concussion. Ice fought a great match but in the end it wasn’t enough as Demonstar won the match. Ice returned to prove him self at One Step Closer winning an amazing Triple Threat match with AJ Warner and Kale Amoh. And then again at Mutual Reverence in a Tag match with Rocker and Wilds against the Gangsters and Figgins. Ice's fight against the Gangstaz continued at Memorable Return where Ice teamed up with Nitrous in his first and sadly only match in the GWA. In the match The Gangstaz ended up crushing Nitrous' neck and ending his carrier. Ice managed to pull out a win in the end dedicating it to his fallen partner Nitrous. Ice then participated in the first ever Undercard Anarchy match which was an 8 man scrabble match where the winner would get a huge push in the GWA. Ice was set up to win it when Figgins, who was play possum waiting for the right moment to attack, grabbed Ice and hit the Centrifuge DDT knocking out Ice. Rocker went on to make Figgins tap out and win that match. Ice kept his promise and shook Rocker's hand when it was all said and done and the two celebrated together as the crowd gave them a standing ovation. There glory was shot lived how ever as Hated came out and ruined the party attacking both Ice and Rocker before Killa K came out and challenged Hated to a match.
After the UA Ice begin to fight with none other then Jacob Figgins. At the time Ice was just getting over with the fans and seeing someone like Figgins who came out and disrespected them every night didn’t sit well with Ice. The two met at the first show of 2006, Brave New World where they had a brutal match that saw Ice pulling out with the win over Figgins with the Sub-Zero Cutter. Figgins made sure to take out his frustrations on Ice after the match however by smashing him in the back of the head and walking out of the arena.
Ice's undefeated streak came to an end at GWA on Ice where he took part in Steve Twists Prime Time Invitational. They had an amazing match with Steve underestimating the challenger for most of the match. But Ice earned his respect and was looking for the biggest win of his life when Saria Nalick smashed him in the back of the head with the gold pretty much costing Ice the match. But that match eared Ice the respect of Steve Twist along with most of the GWA locker room respect as well.
After his very first Grand Championship match, Ice came face to face with a man from his past. He was put in a triple threat match with Jacob Figgins and Danny 'Demonstar' Deamon. Danny had recently gone back to his old ways along with the help of Father Deamon and had promised to end both Figgins' and Ice's careers. Ice and Figgins decided on a small truce to take out Danny (Who had recently managed a very cheap win over Figgins the show before) In the end Figgins hit Ice with the Fig Effect and was about to cover when Father Deamon pulled him off of Ice and Demonstar covered Ice for the win. Ice and Figgins watched as there common enemy walked away from the ring with another win to his name at the expense of the two men in the ring.
Afterwards, Ice found him self in the middle of the Steve Twist/Killa Kal feud when he was put into a match with Kal as his partner standing face to face with Twist him self and his best girl Saria. A Beginning of the End, Twist made his heel turn official by destroying his former friend Killa Kal in the middle of the ring leaving a huge wound on his head. In the beginning of the match Kal’s wound was reopened by twist and this almost caused the ref to call the match before Ice stopped him and said he would fight alone until Kal could return. Both the ref and Twist agree and the match restarted. Ice fought valiantly waiting for Kal to return but the combined strength of both Twist and Saria was too much for him. Just when things looked to be at there worst Kal returned and together Ice and Kal fought on to almost win the match. Twist managed to put Kal down for the three in the end.
Ice took a show off to nurse his shoulder and then came back at Night of Conclusion in a big match Vs an old enemy of his Kale Amoh. The winner of the match was to get a spot in a huge Four Corner Survival at the 1st Ani. Show. Both Kale and Ice were really showing the world shat they could do and their clash that night was highly anticipated. In the end, after a long match, Ice came out on top after a Zero Driver to Amoh. Ice left the ring that night with both Championship Gold in his reach, and a new found respect for Kale Amoh
at the first Ani. Show, Ice was part of the epic show stealing 4 Corner match that put Hated, Riona, Cody Bogard and him self all in the same ring looking to walk out the Openweight Champion. The match was hard on everyone involved but in the end Cody walked out with the strap still around his waist after putting Ice down for the 3.
At Solumn Sorrow Ice got his shot at the Openweight Championship again standing across the ring from Bogard in what some say was a dream match. The two men gave it all they had and nearly killed each other but in the end it was Cody who would hit the GE and put Ice down saving his OW Championship.
After Hated turned his back on Sparco at Solumn Sorrow, Ice confronted him in a long awaited face off between the two where he preached honor and loyalty. At Flawless Victory the two clashed in one of Ice's largest challenges to date. In the end it was Hated who would throw on the Ankle Lock and make the Silver Flame tap out. But Hated would surprise everyone by showing up later on in the night and helped fight the AoA with ice and the others loyal to the GWA proving that Ice did indeed have an effect on Hated.
Ice had another huge challenge at Taking a Stand where he faced off against none other then Riona Langley in a huge match up for a spot at Soul Survivor. After one heck of a hard fought match seeing both contenders fighting for all they were worth, Riona locked in a deep Boston Crab trying to force the Silver Flame to tap out. Ice however reversed it into a quick roll up and the 3 count hitting a huge upset over the legend Riona Langly and securing a spot in Soul Survivor. Later that night he came to the ring in order to join the fight against the AoA along with Puppet, and Cody Bogard showing where he stood in the war.
Ice had another victory at High times when he was involved in another Four Corner match with Kid Chaos, Jaice Wilds, and Dante Cabrell. It was a long hard fought match, but in the end Ice came up with the win after a quick roll up on Wilds while the other two were busy giving him some momentum heading into the Soul Survivor Match. Ice went into the Soul Survivor match as the people’s favorite. He was the underdog everyone wanted to win. In one of the most grueling matches in the GWA's history, Dante Cabrell, Darson Grays, Andre Clearwater, and Ice battled it out for an hour inside a steel cage in an Ironman match no one would ever forget. Dante picked up an early win due to some interference from his partner Riona Langly forcing Hated to tap out. The match continued and the final ten seconds came with Dante still the only one with any wins. Darson, who didn’t care in the least who won, watched on as dante celebrated a bit early and was caught out of no where with a huge Iceberg Spear that gave Ice the win to tie the match. Soul Survivor ended with Ice and Dante as the co-winners. The sly veteran, and the one no one thought could do it.
Dante and Ice would cross paths once again during a triple threat Title match against Steve Twist where many agree they cost each other the title. Dante and Ice fought bitterly the whole match with Twist as more of an after thought until Dante took Ice down and was then knocked aside for Twist to pick up the win.
Once again they would meet in a tag match with Dante having Riona Langly at his side and Ice having none other then Hated. The match was looking to be about to end in Ice's favor until the AoA interrupted everything and put away Ice and Hated causing the match to end in a no contest
The feud would finally come to an end as GWA Seeking the Crown where Ice and Dante Cabrell would meet one on one for the first time for the number one Contendership for the GWA Grand Championship. It was a close fought match with Ice even knocking away interference from Riona Langly. However, in the end, Dante would walk out with the win leaving Ice with nothing but a will to get back into contention for the Grand Championship.
After his defeat at the hands of Dante Cabrell, Ice dropped to the back of the line. He was forced to start again in his quest for gold. His first stepping stone was Flex Buffington. In the opening match of GWA Derailed, Ice took on the new comer in a match where the roles were reversed. Ice was the vet and Flex was the bright up and comer. In the end Ice would trump the new talent and take the win.
At GWA Ouroboros, The team of Ice and Hated took on the AoA team of Darson Grays and Killa Kal. In one of the best tag matches in the GWA's history, Ice and hated spent most of the match trying to keep up with the AoA but almost won on several occasions. However, the AoA would walk out after a pin on Hated leaving ice in the ring with his fallen partner. Another victim of the AoA.
At Better Late then Never, Ice and Sparco teamed up in what many call the dream team to take on the AoA team of Steve Twist and Killa Kal. It would be a hard battle but in the end Ice would do what no one has done since Twist had entered the GWA and that’s pin him. Just like that, Ice went from being at the back of the line for a title shot, right back to being at the top right under Twist, wanting nothing more then to dethrone him as GWA Grand Championship.
At the Final Countdown, Ice got that chance against Steve Twist, one on one. The two would battle for a long match, with Twist giving Ice everything he had before finally putting him away and leading into the big announcement about Steve owning the GWA. Ice would be caught in the middle of the RIOT as the fans charged the AoA....
At Kingdom of the Fearless, Ice once again teamed up with Sparco against the team of Killa Kal and Steve Twist only this time it would be a best two out of three falls match. The two teams would fight it out with the AoA taking the first victory and team GWA taking the second. Victory looked to be in the hands of Ice and Sparco when the AoA caught a disqualification, but Twist over ruled it and the match continued. Ice almost looked to have the champ out when he reversed a Super Zero Drive and landed Ice in a move of his own taking the victory for the AoA. After this match, Darson Grays would confront Steve Twist leading up to one of the biggest matches in GWA History.
That night was also a big night for Ice. At the first show of 2007, ice faced his GWA team mates Sparco and Hated in a triple threat match that would unofficially decide the leader of team GWA. After a hard fought match where all three men gave it their all, Ice was able to put hated down with the DGH Driver and gets the pinfall. Afterward, Darson Grays would come out and announce his respect for Ice along with announcing his first challenger after he took the title from Twist. All of this leading up to the main event where Grays would have Steve Twist where he wanted him only to let the time limit run out and prove to the world where he really stood, on the side of the AoA.
Because of this, Ice would drop out of the Indy Pride match to get his hands on Darson Grays. At the next show they would meet in a grueling 30 minute long match up where both men threw everything they had at each other. late in the match Darson would go on to reverse the Diamond Storm and nail a move of his own putting down Ice for the three. At AMRR, Ice and Hated teamed up to take on the AoA death squad in Killa Kal and Darson Grays. Through out the whole match Hated and Ice would bicker, each one wanting to do things his own way. Their egos would continue to clash until the end of the match where once again it was Ice and Darson in the final rally. Darson would get the quick roll up for the pin over Ice just barely allowing the AoA to walk out with the win but not with out again being a least a little shaken up by the Silver Flame. Ice and Hated would then go on to resurrect their old differences with Hated smacking Ice hard and Ice returning it with a hard push knocking Hated down as the show ended. The two would make amends before the start of the next show when Cody Bogard, Hated, Danny Deamon and eventually Ice would meet in the center of the ring to discuss a few things. Danny would go on to join the fight against the AoA and Ice and Hated would once again renew their truce leading into Ice’s match that night against Darson Grays.
The match in question would be over 30 minutes worth of hell for both men. Ice and Grays would nearly kill each other but in the end it would take Ice breaking Darson's with a kick to get the three count. This would earn Ice his third one on one shot against Twist for the title.
At the 2ed Anni show, Ice would face Steve Twist in one of the greatest matches in the GWA's history. During the Main Event of the night, both men went the distance for the GWA Grand Championship. Ice would solidify his spot on the GWA card by delivering one final kick to the head of Twist before covering him for the three and the GWA Grand Championship!!!!!
Alignment: Face. Ice loves the fans and hates it when wrestlers disrespect them. Ice tends to operate with a very high honor code; very rarely does he ever actually use an underhanded tactics.

Entrance Theme: "The Takedown" Yellowcard
Entrance:
The opening chords of “The Takedown” By Yellowcard hit the speakers and the lights in the area flash blue and white as the crowd rises to their feet in anticipation of one of their favorite GW Stars.
I feel things changing when I move
It’s a distance, its a difference
Across this planet without you
And you might call this a downfall
It's one long night that I’m passing through
It's a dark one what have I done
It’s one long night
Ice pushes aside the curtain and the Dragonslayer is met with a torrent of cheers from members of the crowd. He throws his arms up into the air as silver sparks erupt from devices on the ground beside him. He closes his eyes and takes it all in for a second before dropping his pose and shooting his arms out in the crucifix position as one final explosion of sparks engulf him.
Don't turn your back on me now
You can't do this
So don't say you can live without
You can't do this alone
How did I end up like this the lonely one
Your greatest takedown
You take me down
After the sparks have cleared, Ice makes his way down the ramp slapping hands with as many fans as he can along the way. He reaches the bottom of the ramp and leaps up on top of the ring apron facing one side of the crowd.
Left last night with a long goodbye
With some red wine through a phone line
Told you thoughts that multiply
That I don't know how to let go
We've been here many times before
I am empty when you leave me
What's one more
He raises his arms again and all the spot lights in the arena focus on him as the Dragonslayer basks in the love of his fans. He then drops the pose, takes off his Dragonslayer T-shirt and throws it to the crowd before grabbing the top rope and leaping into the ring.
Don't turn your back on me now
You can't do this
So don't say you can live without
You can't do this alone
How did I end up like this the broken one
Your greatest takedown
You take me down
Ice lands gracefully on the mat and turns around to do the crucifix one more time as the bridge of the song hits. As he does this silver sparks fly up from the ring posts showering the ring.
I won't get by I won't heal in time
I won't get by
Don't turn your back on me now
You can't do this
So don't say you can live without
You can't do this alone
How did I end up like this the chosen one
Your greatest takedown
You take me down
Ice breaks the pose and hands the GWA Grand Championship to the ref before stretching out for his match.
