Picture
AJ Cross is a third generation wrestler. He was trained for the sport of wrestling by his father and grandfather. At age 19 in January 2005, he made his debut in GWA, in a match with Brett Damon, which went to a double-countout. That match didn't impress too many people, so AJ left to sharpen his skills a bit more. Two months later, AJ Cross returned to wrestling, for HCW. AJ went through several months of losing, and was destroyed by then-HCW Champion, Titan. AJ left shortly after that match, but returned shortly after and picked up his first victory, over Marc Henderson, which led to a feud between the two superstars. The two men feuded for the next few weeks, and it all came to a head, at Lockdown, in a Ladder Cage match, which was won by Marc Henderson. Instead of leaving HCW again, AJ stayed and picked up victories over Akuma and Rob Cavallo for the next few weeks. AJ began stating that he deserved a shot at a title. AJ proved it at Last Laugh, when he defeated Paul Hann, Enkei, and Kalki to capture the HCW Young Lion Championship.
