With the extra time spent traveling across the country, Heresy limited his New England appearances to a few select promotions. In November 2001, Heresy represented the EWA at the "Headlocks for Humanity" show in Somerville, Massachusetts. The event was a fundraiser for the American Red Cross following the September 11th terrorist attacks and co-hosted by eight New England promotions including Chaotic Wrestling, New England Championship Wrestling, NWA New England and Yankee Pro Wrestling. Heresy joined Stefan Ramsey and Frankie Armadillo in a six-man tag team match against Adam Booker, Damian Houston and Brian Black. At Power-Fest 2002, Heresy won the vacant PLW Heavyweight Championship by defeating Johnny Curtis, Derik Destiny, Kid Krazy, Manical Mark, Kenn Phoenix, Shane Simons and Don Vega in a Pier 8 Brawl match. The show raised money for the construction of a permanent &lt;a href="September%2011%20attacks"&gt;9/11 memorial&lt;/a&gt; at the Rhode Island State House. Heresy remained champion for two years.
