Personal History:
The man formerly known to the world as Mad Dogg got his start in late 2003 and found some footing in what was the Epic Wrestling Organization. eWo was Shelley's home and the place he won his first taste of championship gold until they closed the doors. In late 2004, early 2005, Gabe found himself a member of the BWF roster and the rest is history. The then longest reigning US Champion in the company's history, hard fought matches with the likes of Mark McNasty, 3 BWF World Championship reigns, BWF Hall of Famer, and so much more. Most of Gabe's career has been spent in the cycle of eWo, BWF, and the offshoots of those companies. He's even spent time running BWF.
Now, Gabe has a wife and a daughter and many would say he's in the twilight of his career. He knows he's still got some fight left in this dog and is coming back to BWF to show it.
