Chris Guy (born January 25, 1973) is an American professional wrestler better known by his ring name Ace Steel. He is currently signed to WWE to its Ohio Valley Wrestling developmental territory.

Contents

Chris Guy became interested in professional wrestling after watching American Wrestling Association shows at the International Amphitheatre as a child. He debuted in October 1991 after training with Windy City Pro Wrestling, and began using the name Ace Steel.

Steel eventually formed a tag team with Danny Dominion known as the Hollywood Hardbodies. Along with Dominion, Steel operated the Steel Domain, a professional wrestling school and minor independent promotion, in Chicago between 1997 and 2001. Steel also wrestled for the Minnesota-based St. Paul Championship Wrestling promotion and the St. Louis-based promotion Mississippi Valley Wrestling Alliance.

Steel worked for IWA Mid-South. On February 8, 2002 in Indianapolis, Indiana he defeated Kurt Krueger for the IWA Mid-South Light Heavyweight Championship. Steel held the title until March 8, when he lost to Vic Capri in Dayton, Ohio. Steel would eventually reclaim the title on May 3, defeating Capri in a thirty minute Iron Man Match in Indianapolis, but was stripped of the belt in June when he failed to defend the title within the thirty day limit.

Steel was signed by Total Nonstop Action Wrestling soon after the promotion opened in May 2002. He wrestled a tag team match with his former student, CM Punk, as Hatebreed and received a small push as part of the X Division, but was used irregularly, working a handful of dates before his contract expired in October 2003.

In early 2003 Steel joined Ring of Honor and reformed the Hatebreed with CM Punk. On March 22, Punk and Steel faced Punk's enemy Raven and another student of Steel's, Colt Cabana, in a tag match. Cabana appeared to badly injure himself after botching a moonsault to the outside of the ring, forcing Raven to wrestle the majority of the match single-handedly. Raven eventually managed to defeated Steel following an Evenflow DDT, but, after the match, Cabana turned on him and aligned himself with his friend, Punk, and his trainer, Steel. Punk, Cabana and Steel named themselves the Second City Saints (as all the stable members were from the "second city", Chicago).

Steel joined Harley Race's World League Wrestling promotion in 2003, and in November and December 2003 he represented WLW on a tour with Pro Wrestling NOAH in Japan. Steel enjoyed working in Japan and began appearing regularly with NOAH. The Gold Exchange (Matt Murphy and Superstar Steve) were the reigning WLW Tag Team Champions, and, when Superstar Steve was injured, Steel took his place as Murphy's partner and helped defend the Tag Team Titles until Steve returned and reclaimed his half of the championships. After Murphy left the promotion, Steel became Steve's partner, and on May 7, 2005 in Ozark, Missouri Steel and Steve defeated "Wild" Wade Chism and Dakota for the WLW Tag Team Championships.

Steel appeared with World Wrestling Entertainment on the September 27, 2004 episode of RAW and had his hair cut by Eugene, who would face Eric Bischoff in a hair versus hair match at the upcoming Taboo Tuesday pay-per-view.[2] Steel used the name Scott Colton (the real name of Colt Cabana) as an inside joke. After Eugene inexpertly cut his hair, Bischoff ambushed Eugene and Steel, knocking them out with thrust kicks. Cabana returned the favor on the April 10, 2006 episode of RAW when he wrestled under the name Chris Guy, Steel's real name.

Steel also made an appearance on WWE Velocity on April 1, 2006 against Orlando Jordan, as well as various dark match and TV appearances from July, 2000.[3]

On the January 8, 2007 edition of WWE Raw, Ace Steel played Donald Trump in the match between "The Donald vs. Rosie." The match was between Rosie O'Donnell and Donald Trump. "Trump" received the win after throwing Fudgie the Whale at Rosie's face and pinning her after a second turnbuckle "hairbutt".[4] It was reported on January 18, 2007, in the midst of 11 releases on that day, that he officially signed a WWE developmental contract.[5] Steel debuted in Deep South Wrestling, LLC in February. When Deep South Wrestling shut down on April 19, 2007 Steel was moved to Ohio Valley Wrestling where he was added to the roster.[1] He debuted in September.

Ace Steel wrestled on the October 5, 2007 edition of SmackDown!, quickly jobbing to Chuck Palumbo.[6]
