3 . 0 3 . 0 is a Canadian professional wrestling tag team , consisting of Scott " Jagged " Parker and Shane Matthews . The team , originally billed as 2 . 0 , is best known for working for Chikara and International Wrestling Syndicate ( IWS ) , but have also made appearances for several other independent promotions , including Combat Zone Wrestling ( CZW ) , Independent Wrestling Association Mid - South ( IWA - MS ) , Pro Wrestling Guerrilla ( PWG ) , and Ring of Honor ( ROH ) . Parker and Matthews are former two - time holders of both the Chikara Campeonatos de Parejas and the IWS Tag Team Championship . Professional wrestling career . International Wrestling Syndicate ( 2004 – 2010 ) . 2 . 0 began working for Montreal , Quebec – based International Wrestling Syndicate ( IWS ) in June 2004 . For the first six months in the promotion , Jagged and Shane Matthews worked as faces , but on January 2005 2 . 0 turned heel at a Northern Championship Wrestling ( NCW ) co – promoted event with IWS . On March 26 , 2005 , 2 . 0 received their first shot at the IWS Tag Team Championship , but were unable to dethrone the defending champions the Flying Hurricanes ( Kenny the Bastard and Takao ) in a four – way match , which also included SLI ( Marc Le Grizzly and Viking ) and the Wrecking Crew ( Chris Wells and Tomassino ) . 2 . 0 received a rematch for the titles on July 9 , 2005 , during IWS ' first , and only , show at The Arena in Philadelphia , but managed to defeat the Flying Hurricanes only via countout , which meant that they didn ' t win the championship . This set up a rubber match for August 20 , when 2 . 0 finally defeated the Flying Hurricanes to win the IWS Tag Team Championship . After five successful defenses and an eight - month reign , 2 . 0 lost the IWS Tag Team Championship to the Hardcore Ninjaz ( Hardcore Ninja # 1 and Hardcore Ninja # 2 ) on June 2 , 2006 . Shortly afterwards Matthews tore his posterior cruciate ligament , which would sideline him for the rest of the year and forced Jagged to go on a singles career . On September 30 , 2006 , Jagged defeated Player Uno to win the IWS Canadian Championship , which he would hold for 63 days , before losing it to Dan Paysan . Matthews made his return as a face on March 24 , 2007 , to face Jagged in the first IWS match between the former members of 2 . 0 . In the finish of the match Matthews turned heel and defeated Jagged , after an interference from Uncle Manny , which consequently turned Jagged face . On the following show Matthews explained that Jagged , unlike Manny , had shown no concern for him while he was out with his injury . After missing the next couple of shows , Jagged returned on June 16 , 2007 , and chased Matthews and Manny out of the ring , just as they were about to attack Twiggy . However , Jagged then turned on Twiggy , reunited with Matthews and announced that at the next event they would be challenging for the IWS Tag Team Championship . On July 14 2 . 0 regained the IWS Tag Team Championship from the Hardcore Ninjaz , but their second reign would turn out to be a short one as on September 22 , 2007 , they lost the titles to the Super Smash Bros . ( Player Uno and Stupefied ) . 2 . 0 received a rematch for the titles on November 3 , but were once again defeated , this time in a Two Out of Three Falls match . After multiple unsuccessful attempts at regaining the titles from teams such as Franky The Mobster and Twiggy and Up in Smoke ( Cheech and Cloudy ) , 2 . 0 put their future as a tag team on the line in order to get one last shot at the IWS Tag Team Championship on May 30 , 2009 , at IWS ' 10th Anniversary Show . However , in the end The Untouchables ( Don Paysan and James Stone ) were able to retain the titles and as a result 2 . 0 could no longer team in IWS . After the break – up Matthews dubbed himself Canada ' s greatest athlete and started a singles career , while Jagged went on to replace injured IWS Tag Team Champion James Stone and formed the tag team The Untouchables 2 . 0 with former rival Don Paysan . In their first match together Jagged and Paysan lost the IWS Tag Team Championship to the Rock N ' Roid Express ( Franky the Mobster and Twiggy ) . However , both men ' s singles careers were cut short and the break – up stipulation was waived , when IWS announced it would hold its final show on October 9 , 2010 , where 2 . 0 would re – form to face longtime rivals the Super Smash Bros . in a tag team match . At the event 2 . 0 defeated the Super Smash Bros . to end their IWS careers on a high note . Chikara . 2 . 0 ( 2006 – 2009 ) . Jagged and Shane Matthews made their debuts as " rudos " ( heels ) for Philadelphia – based Chikara on February 25 , 2006 , taking part in the 2006 Tag World Grand Prix , losing to Men @ Work ( Mister ZERO and Shane Storm ) in the first round of the tournament . After taking part in a tag team gauntlet match at " Aniversario Delta " in May , Matthews suffered an injury that would sideline him for eight months , leaving Jagged to wrestle singles matches against the likes of Equinox , Twiggy and Player Uno . Matthews returned to the promotion in February to team with Jagged and Young Lions Cup Champion Maxime Boyer as Team Canada in the 2007 King of Trios , but the team was eliminated from the tournament in the first round by the eventual winners of the entire tournament , Mike Quackenbush , Jigsaw and Shane Storm . On March 23 , 2007 , 2 . 0 picked up their first tag team victory in Chikara , defeating BLKOUT ( Joker and Sabian ) . Despite being " rudos " , 2 . 0 quickly gained a cult following due to their entertaining promos and comedic behaviour , but were unable to win another match in 21 months . Their long losing streak finally came to an end on April 25 , 2009 , when they defeated Incoherence ( Hallowicked and Frightmare ) in a tag team match , thanks to an interference from Brodie Lee , who was feuding with Hallowicked at the time . After the loss Jagged and Matthews declared that they would give no more interviews until they were able to pick up their first point . In Chikara tag teams need three points ( three straight victories ) to become eligible to challenge for the promotion ' s tag team championship , the " Campeonatos de Parejas " . This didn ' t take long , as the very next day 2 . 0 scored a victory over the Sea Donsters ( Hydra and Tim Donst ) . On June 12 Jagged and Matthews defeated Atsushi Ohashi and Mototsugu Shimizu during Chikara ' s tour with Big Japan Pro Wrestling in Saitama , Japan , but failed to pick up their third point the following day , when they were defeated by Ryuichi Kawakami and Yoshihito Sasaki in Tokyo , Japan . The Badd Boyz ( 2009 – 2010 ) . After losing another match against The Colony ( Fire Ant and Soldier Ant ) on August 14 , 2009 , Chikara witnessed the debut of The Badd Boyz , with Jagged renaming himself Chad Badd and Matthews Brad Badd , adopting the gimmick of tough bikers , one that they had previously used in Inter Species Wrestling . Despite not trying to hide their true identities at all , The Badd Boyz were billed as a completely new tag team and there were no references made to the similarities between them and 2 . 0 , who also kept appearing in Chikara . In their first Chikara match , The Badd Boyz defeated Fire Ant and Soldier Ant on September 12 . On November 21 The Badd Boyz defeated The Future is Now ( Helios and Lince Dorado ) , but on February 28 , 2010 , once again failed in their attempt to earn a championship match . Chikara ' s Director of Fun Dieter VonSteigerwalt , however , was not amused by The Badd Boyz ' s antics and booked them in a Loser Leaves Town match against 2 . 0 for March 20 , 2010 . The Badd Boyz won the match via countout , when 2 . 0 didn ' t show up . After the match The Badd Boyz revealed that they had been 2 . 0 all along and announced that from now on the new and improved version of the team would be known as 3 . 0 . With the announcement , 3 . 0 turned " tecnico " ( face ) , while Jagged adopted the new ring name Scott " Jagged " Parker . 3 . 0 ( 2010 – present ) .

Parker and Matthews received their shot at the following event on September 18 , 2010 , in a Chikara tradition , a Two Out of Three Falls match , against the defending champions , Ares and Claudio Castagnoli of the Bruderschaft des Kreuzes ( BDK ) . BDK won the first fall in quick fashion thanks to a pre – match assault from BDK member Delirious . However , Parker managed to tie the score by pinning Castagnoli with a flash roll – up , the first time BDK had dropped a fall in their title matches . Despite having the entire Chikara locker room by ringside cheering 3 . 0 on , BDK managed to win the third fall , when Castagnoli forced Matthews to submit with the " Inverted Chikara Special " , and retained the " Campeonatos de Parejas " . 3 . 0 . earned another three points on February 20 , 2011 , in a four – way elimination tag team match , after eliminating Los Ice Creams ( El Hijo del Ice Cream and Ice Cream , Jr . ) , but lost the points after being eliminated themselves by BDK members Daizee Haze and Delirious , after a distraction from the UnStable ( Vin Gerard and STIGMA ) , from whom Parker and Matthews had earned their second point the previous day . For the 2011 King of Trios , 3 . 0 came together with El Generico to form ¡ 3 . 0lé ! . On April 15 , the team was eliminated from the tournament in the first round by The Osirian Portal ( Amasis , Hieracon and Ophidian ) . On May 21 , 3 . 0 ended their three month long feud with the UnStable by defeating them in a tag team match , where the losing team had to split up . In early 2012 , 3 . 0 earned another shot at the Campeonatos de Parejas by picking up three points with victories over the Bravado Brothers ( Harlem and Lancelot ) , BDK ( Jakob Hammermeir and Tim Donst ) and the Throwbacks ( Dasher Hatfield and Mark Angelosetti ) . On March 24 in Vaughan , Ontario , 3 . 0 defeated F . I . S . T . ( Chuck Taylor and Icarus ) in the main event of Chikara ' s first ever event in Canada to become the new Campeones de Parejas . On April 29 , 3 . 0 lost the Campeonatos de Parejas back to F . I . S . T . in their first title defense , ending the team ' s reign at just 36 days . Following their title loss , 3 . 0 started feuding with the Bravado Brothers , who were blamed for injuring Parker ' s rib prior to the loss . The rivalry built to a grudge match on June 23 , where 3 . 0 was victorious , earning their second point in the process . Also in June , 3 . 0 began regularly teaming with Gran Akuma in six man tag team matches . On August 17 , 3 . 0 earned their third point by eliminating Arik Cannon and Darin Corbin from a four tag team elimination match .
