Training in the Art Of Extreme<\/span><\/h1>\n

Andrew Everett, for all intents and purposes, was made for this business. The son of a wrestling promoter, Andrew got the chance to start wrestling at the young age of 15 under the tutelage of Matt and Jeff Hardy in 2007. This led to him wrestling in independent promotion <\/span>Chikara <\/b>under the names Chiva Kid or Chiva IV. Here he started wrestling on a limited schedule are a member of <\/span>Las Chivas <\/b>along with <\/span>Chiva I<\/b>,<\/span> Chiva II<\/b>, and<\/span> Chiva III <\/b>throughout 2007 and 2008. He also wrestled and trained in <\/span>CWF Mid-Atlantic<\/b> under the guidance of <\/span>Gemini Kid<\/b>, where he continued to wear the Chiva mask even after his departure from Chikara in early 2008.<\/span><\/p>\n

Andrew would continue to wrestle exclusively for CWF throughout the latter half of 2008 but would go winless up until December when he got a shot at the CWF Mid-Atlantic Rising Generation League Championship, then held by <\/span>Nick Richards<\/b>. Chiva, the obvious underdog going into the match, would shock the crowd by picking up a roll-up victory and winning his first-ever championship in professional wrestling.<\/span><\/p>\n
