Sean Byrne trained to be a pro wrestler at the Chaotic Wrestling Academy along with friend Clayton Pendexter. His debut was at the age of 17 as Heavy B teaming with Clayton "Big C" Pendexter to form the team "Heavy Metal". The pair won the Caotic Wrestling Tag Titles on 2 seperate occasions before heading north to New England Championship Wrestling. After a short stint there which consisted of a run as NECW Tag Team Titles, they had a major falling out. At the time, there were conflicting reasons for the breakup, one such reason was were to go with there carear. Clayton thought they would take there team to Japan, while Sean had secured a spot as a jobber at the former WCW. Although most fans believe there break up was kayfab.
[edit] Singles Action
When Clayton signed with Zero-1, Sean was on his own. He worked for a time in World Championship Wrestling as a jobber. In 2001 when WCW went out of buisseness, Sean was out of work. He briefly found work in California, wrestling with Empire Championship Wrestling, but contract negotiations fell through and Sean left after 3 weeks. Returning to his native Boston, Sean returned to CCW where he acted as a part time trainer before being signed to NECW. In 2 years, Sean held the NECW T.V title 3 times. However a leg injury forced Sean out of action for 6 months. Sean's contract with NECW expired and upon being medicly cleared, Sean signed with Jersey All-Pro Wrestling in 2003, Debuting the Boston Rocker gimmick for the first time. Sean won the respect of not just the fans, but former WCW World Champion Diamond Dallas Page, who was in attendance at an event, when Sean wrestled for 67 minutes before winning the JAPW Heavyweight Title. Following the match, DDP helped Sean gain importent contacts in the world of wrestling (which would lead to his signing to the XWCW) and taught Sean the Diamond Cutter, which Sean adopted as his new finisher. Sean would hold the title for 7 months before being signed to Xtreme World Championship Wrestling. Sean vacated the title upon leaving and recieved a standing ovation.
