With over 15 years experience on the independent scene, Reckless Youth could easily qualify for a New Jersey pro wrestling hall of fame. Already a highly skilled technical wrestler, his talents made him a one time WWE Developmental Talent under the tutalage of William Regal and then later an early main event for Ring of Honor. Youth appeared in the main event of the joint AWESOME-JWA Battleship New Jersey show, teaming with fellow longtime indy rulebreaking veteran Dirty Don Montoya against Section 8 and Kid USA.
