El Noveno

**El Noveno** (The Ninth in English) (born April 7, 1989) is an American CAW commentator and wrestler of Mexican heritage currently signed to A.W.A.C. Noveno is also signed to EWWE, CXWI, RCWE as well as other CAW leagues.

His name is commonly mispronounced by commentators. El Noveno's name is correctly pronounced "NO-VEE-NO." His real name is not a matter of public record, as is often the case with masked wrestlers in Mexico, where their private lives are kept a secret from the wrestling fans.

## Early Life And Training

El Noveno was born in Seattle, WA on April 7, 1989, the second eldest of 4 children; all 4 of which have followed his parents' footsteps with his father El Noveno Sr. and mother Marie Noveno also being former wrestlers. Noveno is a second-generation wrestler alongside his older brother Rojo Inferno, his younger brother DS Juego and younger sister Kira Noveno.

After relocating to Tijuana, Mexico at a young age, El Noveno was raised in a working middle-class household with his family touring Southern California, Mexico, Brazil, and other parts of South America, putting on shows in these places. His father would train him and the rest of the children during the daytime before these shows would take place in the evening.

El Noveno's first official match was a losing effort against Rojo Inferno before a show in Eagle Rock, California. After many matches for his father's promotion Promociones ARMADA, Noveno left his family, toured around the USA, Canada, Mexico, the UK, and Japan for 4 years before officially signing to A.W.A.C. in 2013 at age 24.

## A.W.A.C. Career (2013 - Present Day)

### **Debut And Early Career**

El Noveno made his debut as a commentator on A.W.A.C.'s first CPV, In Your House: Yes or Yes, which was also A.W.A.C.'s first-ever show on YouTube. From then on, he commentated for every match except on Anarchy Episode 6, where Bane took his place. This was due to the fact he was booked in a Six-Man Tag Team main event, where he teamed with Shadow the Hedgehog & Skull against Cell, Sasquatch, & Vega. Noveno's official in-ring debut came when he was entrant #1 at the Royal Crumble. He was eliminated by Vega.

After the Royal Crumble, Noveno engaged in a feud with Azkadellia and the EWWE Invasion. On Anarchy Episode 11, he defeated Cell in a singles match with the Hell Razor. On Anarchy Episode 12, El Noveno lost to his now-former-friend and then-CXWI Heavyweight Champion, Austin Juhasz, when Juhasz pinned him with the Death Warrant. After the match, Noveno then called Raven out and proposed to her. Raven said "Yes."

At A.W.A.C. Anarchy Rulz, El Noveno faced a mystery opponent hand-picked by Azkadellia. It turned out it was none other than Bray Wyatt. Ultimately, Noveno got the win by pinning Wyatt with the Noveno-Sault. On Anarchy Episode 13, El Noveno and Raven finally tied the knot and got married. Shortly thereafter, EWWE's Invasion of A.W.A.C. quietly faded away.

At A.W.A.C.'s next CPV, Smashlash, El Noveno teamed with Austin Juhasz and successfully defeated Evolution (HHH, Randy Orton, & Batista) in a 2-On-3 NoDQ Handicap Match. On Anarchy Episode 15, he was defeated by Dean Ambrose. After the match, Kane attacked him and tombstoned him on the steel steps through the announce table. At Summer Slamboree, El Noveno challenged Cell for Cell's A.W.A.C. World Heavyweight Championship but was unsuccessful when he pinned Noveno following the Cell Destructor (Sheerdrop Powerbomb)

### **Pursuit Of The A.W.A.C. Heavyweight Championship**

On February 15, 2015, A.W.A.C. returned from a long hiatus with the Royal Crumble. The first match of the night saw an "I Quit" Match between Austin Juhasz and El Noveno. Austin won when he repeatedly hit the Death Warrant (Tiger Driver '91) on Noveno, causing the referee to stop the match. As per stipulation, Noveno was the #1 entrant in the Royal Crumble main event. Noveno successfully won the match by last eliminating Eddie Kingston. As he was celebrating, The Authority's Triple H & Stephanie McMahon-Helmsley announced that the match was a 31-Man Crumble.

Revy, the A.W.A.C. Women's Champion, then came out as the 31st entrant and attacked Noveno ferociously. As she brutalized him and knocked him out, the lights went out and Raven made her return after seven months away from the company. Raven triumphantly attacked Revy and left the ring. Noveno finally got up and threw Revy over the top rope to win the Royal Crumble for real. After the match, Raven and Noveno reconciled as the show went off the air.

On A.W.A.C. Anarchy #17, El Noveno defeated Seth Rollins. On Anarchy 18, Noveno teamed with Dean Ambrose and defeated Rollins and Cell in a Hardcore Tag Team Match. After the match, Cell powerbombed Noveno on a steel chair but suddenly, the lights went out. When they came back on, Bray Wyatt returned and hit Cell with the Sister Abigail. On Anarchy #19, El Noveno asked Bray why he helped him on the last episode, and Bray replied that The Authority had caused chaos around A.W.A.C. when it should have been him doing it. Later the night, Bray defeated Kane in the main event, a NoDQ Match. After the match, Kane attacked Bray, but Noveno ran down and helped Bray out. Noveno then said that Bray was right, and asked if he could join him. Bray then bloodied Noveno, giving him chair shot after chair shot and finally a Sister Abigail, completing his initiation into a newly-reincarnated Wyatt Family. On Anarchy #20, Kane vs. El Noveno ended in a Disqualification when Noveno hit Kane with a steel chair. It has been confirmed that at A.W.A.C. Souled In, El Noveno will team with Bray Wyatt to face Seth Rollins and the A.W.A.C. World Champion Cell. At Souled In, Noveno pinned Seth Rollins in their tag team main event match.

On February 18, 2017, on an episode of A.W.A.C. Anarchy on the road to Anarchy Rulz 2, Roman Reigns attacked El Noveno after a match. On Anarchy #30, Noveno beat Roman Reigns in a Falls Count Anywhere Match. On Anarchy #32, El Noveno defeating debuting wrestler Rabid in an Extreme Rules. After the match, both men were assaulted by Roman Reigns & A.W.A.C. World Champion Cell. Shortly afterward, Booster Gold won a 6-Way Interpromotional Ladder Match for a briefcase, but no one knew what was inside. On Anarchy #33, Cell attacked Booster Gold during his entrance, before cutting a promo saying that he injured Booster's then-partner Matthew Santoro and A.W.A.C. COO Triple H awarded the briefcase to Cell. Cell then announced that inside the briefcase was the CAW Interpromotional Championship, a title belt created by NCA with the purpose of being defended in any CAW league.

### **A.W.A.C. World Heavyweight Champion**

In light of these events, the A.W.A.C. Board Of Directors sanctioned Cell vs. El Noveno for the CAW Interpromotional Title at Summer Slamboree. At Summer Slamboree, El Noveno successfully won the title. On the go-home show before Anarchy Rulz 2, El Noveno cut a promo about how he will become the new A.W.A.C. World Heavyweight Champion and destroy The Authority. Noveno also said he would defend his CAW Interpromotional Title against anyone from any CAW league (Noveno name-dropping SCAW, CXWI, and COH in his promo). Also, Noveno wagered his CAW Interpromotional Title, thus making the match at Anarchy Rulz 2 a "Winner Take All" Double Title Match. Ironically, The Authority (Cell, Triple HHH, & Roman Reigns) came out afterward and the show ended with an intense stare-down between Noveno and Cell.

    At Anarchy Rulz 2, El Noveno defeated Cell to retain his CAW Interpromotional Championship and win the A.W.A.C. World Heavyweight Championship for the first time in his career and becoming a double champion for the second time in his career (First time was in OCBF when Noveno held the OCBF Title and OCBF Interdimensional Title at the same time).

On Anarchy #36, El Noveno issued an open challenge against anyone not currently signed to A.W.A.C. (before the show). The challenge was answered by Metallo. Noveno eventually defeated Metallo with the Gold Cutter, but after the match, Booster Gold attacked Noveno and hit him with the A.W.A.C. World Title, turning Booster Gold heel for the first time in his A.W.A.C. career. On Anarchy #37, El Noveno lost the CAW Interpromotional Championship to Smokey. On Anarchy #38, Noveno interrupted Cell's promo concerning Booster Gold. At Smashlash 2018, El Noveno lost the A.W.A.C. World Title to Booster Gold in a Triple Threat Match, including former champion Cell.

### **Feud/Alliance with Milo Elasovic and Heel Turn**

After losing, on Anarchy #39, Noveno cut a promo, implying stepping away from the ring, but then the returning Christian Cage cut him off and tried to build him some self-confidence. On the same show, backstage, Intercontinental Champion Milo Elasovic offered Noveno a shot at his belt due to the similar pasts they share. On Anarchy #40, Noveno accepted Milo's challenge. At Final Destination, Milo successfully defended his title against El Noveno.

At Summer Slamboree, during the finals of the Battle City Tournament between Booster Gold and Johnny Gat, Firestar Hart ran into the ring and knocked out Gat before leaving, effectively turning heel in the process and allowing Booster Gold to win. After the match, Firestar returned to the ring alongside El Noveno & Milo Elasovic and all three of them beat down Gat. This signaled the first time El Noveno has turned heel in A.W.A.C. A few days later, the team of Firestar, Noveno, & Milo was named "Diecast." Later, they quietly added Juri Han to their ranks.

As part of the A.W.A.C. Draft, Noveno was drafted to the Anarchy brand, alongside the rest of Diecast. On Anarchy #45, he and Milo Elasovic accompanied Firestar Hart to ringside for his successful win against Guardians of the Galaxy member Star-Lord, but after the match, the lights went out and this weird reversed speech played in the arena. On Anarchy #46, the Guardians defeated Diecast in a No Disqualification Six-Man Tornado Tag Team Match. On Anarchy #47, in pre-recorded footage, Noveno attacked Christian Cage at A.W.A.C. Headquarters in Jump City, CA, before challenging him to a match at Deadly Sin. At Deadly Sin, Christian Cage defeated El Noveno with unwarranted help from the lights cutting out and the same reversed speech distracting Noveno. On Anarchy #48, Noveno was in the ring cutting a promo but was cut off by the lights going out and the reversed speech blaring in the arena. As soon as the lights came back on, a frustrated Noveno immediately left the ring in a hurry.

At Raven's Dark Ass Summer Vacation, a special show held by A.W.A.C., Noveno competed in a Fatal-4-Way Match that was won by Vittore Timoteo (The match also included Rabid and Dade Lightman). On October 21, a video was posted to A.W.A.C.'s YouTube channel. The video showed El Noveno issuing a challenge to whoever has responsibility for the lights going out and the reversed speech; either they show up at Anarchy #50 or Noveno would find whoever it is himself. At Anarchy #50, the man was revealed to be the returning Bray Wyatt who said that "he" would like to face Noveno at Envy. The "he" that Bray was referring to was his alter-ego The Fiend, and shortly thereafter, the match was officially sanctioned for Envy: El Noveno vs. "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt. At Envy, in a squash match, The Fiend soundly defeated Noveno. After the match, he hit Noveno with several Sister Abigails before carrying him away to parts unknown. On Anarchy #55, on an episode of the Firefly Funhouse, Bray Wyatt told the audience at home that El Noveno "is in a safe place" and that the next time he will appear, everyone will "love and appreciate him again". On Anarchy #59, on an episode of the Firefly Funhouse, Bray Wyatt announced that "he", (referring to The Fiend) and El Noveno would enter the Men's Match Beyond at Above And Beyond.

On August 18, 2020, at SCAW/A.W.A.C. Challenge Of The Immortals, El Noveno pinned Dante to win the SCAW Championship. However, the decision was reversed by SCAW General Manager Green Lantern who stated that Noveno did not have a full-time SCAW contract and therefore was not allowed to become champion. As a result, Dante was still officially the SCAW Champion. After the match, Dante ripped Noveno's mask off (unmasking him for the first time in his career) before hitting him with the Execution and a Punt Kick. The show ended with Green Lantern leaving in disgust, Dante celebrating his "victory" and a bloodied Noveno laid out on the mat. As a result of the post-match beatdown, El Noveno suffered a minor concussion. On August 20 A.W.A.C. announced that Noveno withdrew from the Men's Match Beyond due to this injury. On October 24, 2020, A.W.A.C. announced that El Noveno has fully recovered from his concussion and will be in action on the special Halloween edition of Fury.

### **Return From Injury And Babyface Turn**

On October 24, 2020, A.W.A.C. announced that El Noveno has fully recovered from his concussion and will be in action on the special Halloween edition of Fury. The special episode aired on October 27. Noveno made his return and cut a promo saying that it felt good that he was back in a ring again. Noveno also took shots at SCAW General Manager Green Lantern, citing him as the reason Noveno wasn't allowed to win the SCAW Championship. Suddenly, Bojack Horseman came out and interrupted him. Bojack offered Noveno a spot in the Bojack's Horsemen stable due to their mutual hatred for Green Lantern but Noveno refused. During this confrontation, Noveno severed his ties with Diecast and "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt, turning babyface in the process. Noveno then challenged Bojack to an impromptu match - a Blood Sacrifice Match (essentially a First Blood Match) which Bojack declined but Horsemen member Sterling Archer took up. Archer jumped Noveno from behind which led to the match starting. Noveno won after busting Archer open with a knee to the head. Afterward, Noveno threatened Bojack and forced him to deliver a message to SCAW. As Noveno locked Bojack in submission holds, he screamed for Bojack to acknowledge him as the "REAL SCAW Champion", which Bojack reluctantly did on the brink of his bones breaking. The episode ended with Noveno quoting CM Punk as if talking directly to SCAW: "Do I have everybody's attention now?". However, on November 25, on Superstar Clash #239 (the last Clash on WWE 2K18), Dante defeated El Noveno. As per the match's stipulation, Noveno must never step foot in SCAW again. Had Noveno won, he would have been offered a SCAW contract.

On December 19, on AOD #10, the A.W.A.C. 2020 Christmas Special, El Noveno teamed with SCAW's Santa Claus to defeat Bojack Horseman & Sterling Archer in a 3 Christmas Wishes Ladder Match. After the match, Santa said that since he took down the briefcase, he would be able to grant 3 wishes. 1 wish was Juliet Starling later coming out in a bikini each to Noveno's pleasure whereas the other 2 were kept safe with Santa, implying his knowledge about Noveno in SCAW. To quote Santa when talking to Noveno, he said "I know what 2 of your wishes are. However, I cannot grant them now, but in due time, I promise you that they will indeed come true. Don't worry. I'll put in a good word for you." It was also during Juliet's entrance that Noveno jokingly broke the 4th wall saying "Well... I guess that's A.W.A.C. canon now". This was a reference to Noveno and Juliet being married in e-feds NEW (New Era of Wrestling) and EMW (Extreme Madness Wrestling) in addition to Noveno's already-established marriage with Raven.

On July 17, 2021, during the Dreamworld Match between Freddy Krueger and "The Fiend" Bray Wyatt on Night 3 of Anarchy Rulz III, El Noveno suddenly appeared and assaulted Wyatt. It is unclear if this was the real Noveno or if Freddy was simpling mimicking his appearance.

El Noveno's first appearance in Season 3 of A.W.A.C. was at Collateral Damage on November 21. Johnny Gat confronted El Noveno backstage about how he must pay for the things he did while with Diecast. Noveno told Gat that there's no need for this since he already got his revenge on Milo Elasovic and Firestar Hart. However, Gat persisted and challenged Noveno to a future match and Noveno reluctantly accepted. On November 28, on Anarchy #68, the two had said match. El Noveno won by Disqualification when Johnny Gat attacked the referee. The two men brawled all around ringside and up the ramp after the match until the show ended. On December 5, on Anarchy #70, Johnny Gat defeated El Noveno and Cell in a Triple Threat Match. Earlier in the episode, A.W.A.C. COO Revy announced that Gat and Noveno would fight in a Parking Lot Brawl at Resonance. On December 20, at Resonance, Noveno defeated Gat. After the match, as he left, Noveno said "it's over", referring to the short-lived feud between the two. As he left the parking lot and entered the locker room, he saw a woman named Ana De Maria. Ana told Noveno that her "lover" would be coming to A.W.A.C. soon and he wants Noveno to be his first opponent. Noveno accepted to face him at the next CPV, Superfight. Noveno then went with Ana back to the hotel where all 3 of them would discuss business together.

On April 2, 2022, at Superfight, Fernando Striker defeated Noveno. On August 23, on Anarchy #73, after Striker defeated Ryan Riley in their match, Striker bumped into El Noveno backstage. Striker told him his backstory, saying that before he wrestled, he did adult movies. Noveno said it's cool and that there are no hard feelings between them and that it was a pleasure sharing the ring with Striker. Noveno then challenged Striker to a rematch at In Your House and Striker accepted, planning to make Noveno go "all night long"...the tagline for the event. On September 10, 2022, at the CPV mega-event, El Noveno defeated Striker. During the show, Revy announced the formation of the T4 Tag War Tournament, and the winners will face the Title Town Titans (JJ Strife & Sam King) for the A.W.A.C. World Tag Team Championship at Full Zone. El Noveno and Fernando Striker decided to enter the tournament under the name "Los Tranquilos".

On September 18, on Anarchy #77, El Noveno & Fernando Striker won their first match as a team, defeating Nord Machine (Kratos & Dovahkiin) in Round 1 of the T4 Tag War Tournament. On September 19, on Anarchy #78, Noveno & Striker defeated The Bloodline (Biff Andreas & Zach Starr) to advance to the finals. On September 25, on Anarchy #79, the final was ruled a no contest when Sam King attacked El Noveno and Michael Myers in the aisleway. Then JJ Strife ran from the crowd and attacked the remaining competitors. Then Ori Kahn & Kjetill Björnsson ran out off-screen and a huge brawl ensued inside the ring. Revy then came out and announced that the true final in the tournament will be at Full Zone. It will be the Title Town Titans vs. The War Horsemen vs. Los Tranquilos vs. 3 From Hell in a Ladder Match for the A.W.A.C. World Tag Team Titles.

On October 11, at Full Zone, Los Tranquilos (El Noveno & Fernando Striker) defeated Title Town Titans (Sam King & JJ Strife), 3 From Hell (represented by Jason Voorhees & Michael Myers), and War Horsemen (represented by Ori Kahn & Kjetill Björnsson) in a Fatal 4-Way Ladder Match to win the T4 Tag War Tournament and become the new champions. On October 16, on Anarchy #80, Los Tranquilos lost the belts to the War Horsemen when a masked man cost them the belts. The man later revealed himself to be TJ Nicholson who officially joined the Horsemen that night. On December 22, on Anarchy #81, Los Tranquilos won their dark match before the show against Primate Party but were later attacked backstage by TBO & Colt Draven. Fernando Striker then interfered in Draven's Intercommonwealth Title match, costing the title to Ishmael and even giving him 2 broken ribs in the process. On February 18, 2023, at A.W.A.C. presents Saturday Night's Maine Event, TBO & Ori Kahn, representing the War Horsemen, defeated El Noveno & Fernando Striker to retain their titles.

## OCBF Career (2014 - 2017)

### **Early Career And Feud With Bray Wyatt**

El Noveno debuted for OCBF in early 2014. His first match for the company was against Vegeta. He was unsuccessful in winning but was noted down as a force to be reckoned with. From there, Noveno was quickly involved in a heated, personal storyline with Bray Wyatt. It was during this rivalry on an episode of Battlestars where we won his first-ever CAW title, the OCBF Extreme Championship. He defended the title for a couple of weeks before eventually losing it to Bobby Roode. The Wyatt/Noveno rivalry ended at OCBF Extreme Justice, where he finally defeated Wyatt in an Extreme Rules Match. After the match, he threw Wyatt set inside a car and set it on fire.

### **Double Champion**

Once that feud was over, El Noveno had some matches with the likes of Ichigo Kurosaki, Trunks, and Vincent. On an episode of OCBF Arena, he impressed Arena General Manager Bulma Briefs so much with his talent that Bulma decided to give him a qualifying match for the OCBF Championship Elimination Chamber. On the following Arena episode, El Noveno successfully qualified for the match. At OCBF Chamber of Horrors 3, El Noveno last eliminated Vegeta after a Noveno-Sault off the chamber pod, which landed him his first-ever CAW World Title, the OCBF Championship. On Arena #51, he successfully defended his OCBF Title against Bobby Roode. In December, at War of Kings 2014, El Noveno defeated Kane and Booster Gold in a Triple Threat Extreme Rules Match to become a double champion. He successfully defended his OCBF Championship while also winning Kane's Interdimensional Title, thus making him a double champion for the first time in his career.

On Arena Episode 52, El Noveno teamed with Deadpool and successfully defeated Preston Pearce & Lobo in a Tag Team Match. On the following episode, Battlestars #25, El Noveno lost a Non-Title Champion vs. Champion Match against the OCBF Multiverse Champion Broly. On Arena Episode 53, El Noveno defeated Yami Bakura in a Bloody Splinter Match (a First Blood Tables Match) to retain his OCBF Championship by hitting him with the 9-2-5 through the announce table. After the match, Kane ran in and gave Noveno a Chokeslam, before superplexing him through a burning table.

At OCBF Ragnarok 2, it was announced that El Noveno would be competing twice. Firstly, he would be defending his Interdimensional Title vs. Kane in a Tables Match. Secondly, he would be competing in the main event and defend his OCBF Championship (along with Broly's OCBF Multiverse Championship) in a 6-Man Pinfall/Submission-Only Battle Royal, where the last two men will compete in a Ladder Match. The match consisted of El Noveno, Broly, Austin Juhasz, Arsenal, Triple H, and Seth Rollins. At Ragnarok 2, in Noveno's first match, he beat Kane in a Flaming Tables Match to retain his OCBF Interdimensional Championship. His second match was in the Ultimate 6-Way main event, he was eliminated by eventual winner Austin Juhasz. With Noveno's loss, he was no longer the OCBF Champion. However, he was still the Interdimensional Champion.

### **Later Career And Departure**

n 2016, on OCBF Inferno (OCBF's HEAT-type show), El Noveno successfully defended his Interdimensional Title in a Red Surrender Match (a First Blood Submission Match) against Ultimate John Cena. After the match, Arsenal came out and challenged Noveno for the Interdimensional Title at OCBF Unleashed. Noveno accepted. At the CPV, El Noveno lost the Interdimensional Title when Arsenal made him submit to the Bow String (Kneeling Inverted Sharpshooter). At OCBF Extreme Justice 2016, Arsenal defeated El Noveno once again to retain the Interdimensional Title.

On Arena 56, OCBF's 1st show using WWE 2K16, El Noveno participated in a Fatal-4-Way Match, along with Sting, Ichigo Kurosaki, and Robin. The match was won by Sting. As of February 18, 2017, Noveno lost to Bobby Roode in Singles Match that Noveno had personally requested. On Inferno, El Noveno won via DQ against Deathstroke after Red Hood gave Noveno the RHKO (RKO). At Chamber of Horrors 2017 (Using WWE 2K17), Noveno was pinned by Deathstroke in a Triple Threat Match including Red Hood.

On Arena 62, Noveno defeated Vegeta in the opening match. Afterwards, in a requested match, El Noveno lost a match to Austin Juhasz. As per the stipulation, Noveno was forced to leave OCBF forever.

## CXWI Career (2014 - Present Day)

### **YTA Season 5**

El Noveno made his debut for CXWI as part of Season 5 of the YTA (Young Talent Association). He made it past the 1st set in 4th place on points, allowing him to advance to the 2nd set. Noveno had Hitmonchan as his pro. In the 2nd set, El Noveno also faired well, thus allowing him to advance to the 3rd Set. During Episode 3 of the 3rd Set, he was set to face Brandon Wolfe and his pro Mewtwo, but during the entrances, Noveno was brutally attacked by Preston Pearce, then going by his old name Myst Motone.

On Episode 4 of the 3rd Set, El Noveno tagged with his pro Hitmonchan. Noveno pinned Vince Ford, who tagged with his rookie Royce Summers. This win earned Noveno 8 points. After the match, Myst Motone assaulted Noveno and Hitmonchan with a trash can. However, fellow YTA rookie Brandon Wolfe came out and threw Myst off the stage. About two weeks later, the YTA results showed that El Noveno came out on top with 120 points. At CXWI Golden Ambitions 6, Noveno faced Brandon Wolfe and Billy Bowers in a Triple Threat T-Bone Rules Match (kinda like ROH's Pure Wrestling Rules) with the winner getting a guaranteed CXWI contract. On February 26th, at CXWI Golden Ambitions 6, Brandon Wolfe won the match and secured himself a CXWI contract. It was only several months later that, after a lengthy reign with the CXWI Tag Team Titles with Gregory Andrews, Brandon left CXWI due to poor booking decisions. He has since returned to CXWI following the "mass exodus" in 2017.

In April 2015, it was announced by then-CXWI COO Commander John Shepard that El Noveno's contract with CXWI would be rescinded due to "unsportsmanlike conduct" and "behavior problems" from Noveno towards the company. Due to this incident, El Noveno himself has since claimed that CXWI "has lost a star in the making" and has furiously denied any allegations of having an ego or going into a business from himself.

### **Campaign To Return**

As of February 18, 2017, El Noveno has tried many times to get back into CXWI, but all times have proven unsuccessful. One time, Noveno was once threatened with a lawsuit from CXWI Management. As a result, Noveno went silent, but still, he maintained that he would "get back into CXWI or legitimately die trying."

As of October 5, 2017, 3 men left CXWI due to problems with booking and communication: John Blackos, former CXWI All-Star Champion Max Muller, and CXWI mainstay Ben Hopkins. This exodus of talent has led to El Noveno becoming more vocal (albeit less aggressively and more calmly) about how he could get rid of these booking and communication problems, and has even led him to ask CXWI owner Elliot May to come back to CXWI once again and have a second chance. On December 18, 2017, despite all the controversy and people leaving, CXWI did indeed return with their World Tour show, starting in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada. Their next World Tour show was held in Guadalajara, Mexico. Despite taking place in his home country, Noveno did not appear. However, he has patched things up with them since then.

### **Return To CXWI (2018 - Present)**

On June 17, 2018, on CXWI's World Tour Show in Rio De Janeiro, Brazil, after three years away, El Noveno finally made his return to CXWI as Brandon Wolfe's mystery partner. There, they defeated Broly and Gorilla Grodd to become the new CXWI World Tag Team Champions. Earlier in the night, Guardians of the Galaxy (Rocket Raccoon & Groot) won a #1 Contender's Match; therefore, it was confirmed that the Guardians will challenge for the CXWI Tag Team Championship at CXWI's next CPV mega-event called Viva Las Vegas. At CXWI's World Tour show in Brussels, Belgium, Noveno (w/Brandon Wolfe) defeated Rocket Raccoon (w/Groot) in a Singles Match. After the match, Broly & Gorilla Grodd attacked Noveno & Wolfe. Broly & Grood then cut a promo on the fallen champions stating they will invoke their rematch clause for CXWI's show in Tokyo, Japan. At the Tokyo, Japan show, Noveno & Wolfe retained their belts in a Hardcore Match. At CXWI's World Tour show in Macau, China, El Noveno defeated Groot in a Singles Match. After the match, Noveno and his partner Brandon Wolfe stared down Groot and his partner Rocket Raccoon. At Viva Las Vegas, the pair lost the CXWI World Tag Team Championship to Rocket Raccoon & Groot in a KO Only Match.

     On the premiere episode of CXWI Phthalo, El Noveno lost to the debuting Danny Jackpot in the first round of the CXWI Aerial Ace Championship Tournament. On CXWI's Christmas show on December 25, 2018, Noveno competed in a 20-Man Battle Royal where the winner would receive the #30 spot in the Crash 'n' Burn Rumble, but was unsuccessful, having been eliminated by Danny Jackpot.

On the pre-show for CXWI Crimson #2, Noveno competed in a 12-Man Gauntlet Match where he came out at number 10 and lasted until the end where he was defeated by number 12 Mewtwo. On Phthalo #3, El Noveno defeated Milo Elasovic. On CXWI Phthalo #4, during Brandon Wolfe's match with Silver in the semi-finals of the CXWI Aerial Ace Light Heavyweight Championship Tournament, Noveno attacked Wolfe and cost him the match. After the match, Noveno further attacked Wolfe, bloodying him and hitting him with the Hell Razor through the announce table. This cemented Noveno as a heel for the first time in CXWI.

On CXWI Crimson #4, El Noveno cut a promo denouncing his former partnership with Brandon Wolfe and cementing himself as a singles wrestler. After mocking him during the promo, Brandon came out to confront Noveno, but Noveno hurried to the back, wanting no consequences for his actions. At CXWI Crash 'n' Burn 7, Noveno fought Wolfe to a 5-minute time limit draw. After the match, Wolfe chased Noveno out of the arena. Later, in the night's main event, the Crash 'n' Burn Rumble, Noveno came back into the arena after being chased and entered the Rumble at #9. He was eliminated by #7 DJC. After being eliminated, Noveno attacked Brandon Wolfe, who came out as #12, and assaulted him on the stage. As a result of this, Wolfe was unable to participate in the Rumble. At the CRW/CXWI Chronic Cross special, El Noveno defeated Groot. After the match, Brandon Wolfe chased off El Noveno. On episode #6 of CXWI's developmental show EDO, DJC defeated El Noveno to retain the CXWI International Title after Brandon Wolfe interfered and cost Noveno the match. Afterward, the two got into a brawl where Noveno got the better of him.

Noveno later competed in Phthalo #7's main event, a Rumble Match to crown the new CXWI World Champion after it was vacated due to "controversial circumstances", but he was unsuccessful in doing so.

On May 19, at the CXWI Great Ambitions Tour in The Netherlands, El Noveno was involved in "The match of Champions" Fatal-4-Way main event alongside World Champion Blaziken, International Champion DJC and All-Stars Champion RPM. Since every match throughout the show had a random stipulation, the main event was contested inside a Steel Cage. Near the end of the match, El Noveno and Blaziken climbed over the cage at the same time but Blaziken's feet hit the floor first, therefore he won the match. Afterwards, El Noveno attacked Blaziken until members of The Crew ran out to make the save and chase Noveno away. Once the show was finished, Agumon put out a tweet where he condemned Noveno off his attack.

On June 4, 2022, at the CXWI Great Ambitions Tour in Richmond, VA, El Noveno opened the show despite not being booked on the card. He berated Agumon, stating that he once again doesn't deserve to be COO and said that he earnt his way back into CXWI despite all the politics and drama that caused him to leave to first time. Noveno also stated that since he is the current Aerial Ace Champion and defended it against everyone, that makes him viable for the CXWI World Title shot; Noveno even threatened to defend the belt in other companies due to "lack of competition".

On September 19, 2022, on CXWI Crimson #12, Noveno & Bowers interrupted Mewtwo's speech about Arbiter at the beginning of the show. Noveno told Mewtwo that he doesn't care if Arbiter lived or died because Arbiter "was a mass-murderer". Blaziken then came out to defend Mewtwo and Arbiter, opting to defend his CXWI World Title against Noveno on the episode but Noveno declined, instead making Blaziken wait until Apocalypse, before going to the back. During the show, after DJC retained his CXWI International Title against Baraka (in part due to Mewtwo stopping Bowers from interfering and helping Baraka), Noveno came out and attacked him. Blaziken ran out to make the save for DJC but Noveno retreated. Before the main event, Mewtwo was attacked by Agent 47 backstage. Blaziken was supposed to team with Mewtwo against Noveno & Bowers. The team of Noveno, Bowers & Baraka then came out and attacked Blaziken. Noveno was about to tell the referee to ring the bell for an immediate World Title match but DJC ran out to make the save.

### **Losing Streak And Departure**

As of August 17, 2017, El Noveno has not appeared on CPH CPVs or Battleground. The explanation is because of technical difficulties and errors delaying any future COH shows being made.

Before leaving, Noveno privately messaged COH Owner Travis Sparks, telling him that he was indeed leaving, citing a lack of direction for his character in COH as the main reason. Travis then agreed to release Noveno following his last match on COH's 2018 Draft Show.

El Noveno has wrestled in many other CAW leagues, most notably debuting for NCA (Next CAW Alliance) in late 2016. Noveno lost his tryout match with "Dashing" Dick Grayson.

### **Departure From AIR (December 2018 - January 2019)**

## SCAW (Superstars of CAW) (2018 - 2023)

     El Noveno made a surprise appearance at SCAW Blood, Sweat & Tears X, attacking and pinning The Joker to win the SCAW Hardcore Championship due to the 24/7 rule that was in effect throughout the event. Noveno then lost the title immediately afterward to The Prince Of Persia. This later turned out to be a one-off appearance for Noveno. However, SCAW has stated that they are open to booking him again whenever the time arises. On Action #91, El Noveno made another surprise appearance as the Angry Video Game Nerd's mystery opponent. The Nerd ultimately won the match and afterward, he hit Noveno with the Rolling Rock (Swanton Bomb) off the top rope to the outside.

On Action #91, El Noveno made another surprise appearance as the Angry Video Game Nerd's mystery opponent. The Nerd ultimately won the match and afterward, hit Noveno with the Rolling Rock (Swanton Bomb) off the top rope to the outside.

On February 4, 2020, a video was sent to A.W.A.C. Headquarters by SCAW Champion Dante. Dante chastised Noveno and stated that he didn't deserve to be in SCAW. He then challenged Noveno to a SCAW Championship match at the special SCAW and A.W.A.C. crossover show called Challenge Of The Immortals; the reason being that Noveno would need to prove himself worthy of being in SCAW by defeating its top champion. Noveno accepted and the match was officially sanctioned by both companies. El Noveno's next on-screen appearance would be on Superstar Clash 232, where he was confronted by Jack Sparrow backstage. Sparrow agreed with Dante's statements about Noveno's current status in SCAW, which then lead to Noveno retaliating and getting the better of him. Later in the night, Noveno defeated Jack Sparrow in a Singles Match. After the match, SCAW Champion Dante ran out and attacked Noveno until Superman made the save and fended Dante off.

El Noveno's next SCAW appearance would be at their 13 Year Anniversary show. After the SCAW Champion Dante bad-mouthed the 2020 SCAW Tournament winner Brian Urlacher in the ring, Dante tried to escape, but Noveno ran down to the ring and threw him back in. Brian then hit Dante with the Spear, then afterward Noveno hit Dante with the Noveno-Sault. Suddenly, Brian hit Noveno with the Spear to end the segment. On August 18, 2020 at SCAW/A.W.A.C. Challenge Of The Immortals, El Noveno pinned Dante to win the SCAW Championship. However, the decision was reversed by SCAW General Manager Green Lantern who stated that Noveno did not have a full-time SCAW contract and therefore was not allowed to become champion. As a result, Dante was still officially the SCAW Champion. After the match, Dante ripped Noveno's mask off (unmasking him for the first time in his career) before hitting him with the Execution and a Punt Kick. The show ended with Green Lantern leaving as Dante celebrated his "victory" while a bloodied Noveno as laid out on the mat. As a result of the attack, Noveno suffered a minor concussion and would be out for a couple of months.

On November 1, at SCAW Blood, Sweat & Tears XI, Green Lantern walked out before the main event and turned the SCAW Championship match into a Triple Threat Match, which now included Ichigo Kurosaki much to the fans' dismay. Near the end of the match, El Noveno interfered and laid out Dante which allowed Aquaman to defeat him and become the new SCAW Champion. On November 25, on Superstar Clash #239 (the last Clash on WWE 2K18), Dante defeated El Noveno. As per the match's stipulation, Noveno must never step foot in SCAW again. Had Noveno won, he would have been offered an SCAW contract

On April 21, 2021, at Winterslam, El Noveno made an surprise appearance, assaulting Green Lantern backstage and laying him out. On July 29, 2021, on Superstar Clash #248, Green Lantern returned from his assault. Although, he did address his assault at Winterslam, even calling El Noveno a "nobody", Noveno himself did not show up at all on the episode. As of October 2021, he has not made any further appearances for SCAW, calling into question if the storyline has been dropped or not, especially since Green Lantern would later be attacked by Inuyasha and replaced as SCAW General Manager by Bojack Horseman.

As of January 2023, El Noveno has still not made any appearances for SCAW. He has gone on to express disappointment towards SCAW for a lack of follow-up to the storyline, especially given the many opportunities to bring him back and properly finish it. Furthermore, Noveno was disappointed in how his dream of being in SCAW full-time was ultimately crushed due to this. Regarding the whole fiasco, Noveno said this in a private interview:

*"I just feel disappointed about the whole thing, not mad or angry. I was so happy when I first got into SCAW. That was my dream, but now it seems very unlikely that dream will continue. I put my trust in a CAW league I fell in love with and produced so much for and they don't even use me. I've given them so many ideas for them to bring me back and it's all on deaf ears. I bet you money Green Lantern will come back and our whole beef won't be shown or something like that. I just want them to book me-- or if they can't, then let me go out with a bang. Not with a random attack then.... nothing."*

On February 25, 2023, El Noveno made a surprising return to SCAW, interfering in the main event for the SCAW Championship between Drax the Destroyer and Aquaman. Brian Urlacher stormed out and attacked both men but then Noveno ran out to attack Urlacher, sending him back up the ramp. As of December 2023, Noveno has not made anymore appearances for SCAW, and with SCAW moving the WWE 2K23, he has quietly left the promotion of his own accord.

The episode closed as Noveno wanted an answer from Namor by the next episode of Afterburn. On June 18, on Afterburn #16, throughout the whole night, El Noveno was backstage waiting for Namor. Late into the episode, RCWE General Manager Red Forman told Noveno that Namor wasn't in the building and that he had already picked Loki to become the next challenger for his Internet Title.

Namor demanded more be done but Forman made a counter-offer: on the next Afterburn, El Noveno brings back the Internet Title and Namor gives him a title shot via entering a #1 Contender's Match: Namor & Loki VS. Noveno and a partner of his choosing. If Namor & Loki win, Loki challenges for the Internet Title at Collision Course. If Noveno and his partner win, Noveno gets the title match.
