•Biography: David Harris better known as Dean Creed, an adopted American who lived in Texas since the age of ten. His path to wrestling wasn't an unfamiliar story since he started out as a American Football player in High School. From there his path led to wrestling as he seemed to be very good at fighting, often getting into scrapes at school. After failing to break into the high school team due to his history of violence, he found love in professional wrestling due to the money being better than fighting or boxing at the time. He reconnected with his friend from England Michael Raynold aka Mike Malice, who had recently moved to Texas along with his sister Tara. The trio pushed ahead with their wrestling plans and were the toast of Texas for a while. Eventually after being in the indys for years they both found their way to TXW 2.0 in 2014 based in New York at the time. Unfortunately early on the team fell apart when Creed decided to turn his back on Malice as he wanted to go solo and win some gold on his own after years of being a tag wrestler. At least it wasn't all bad as he reconnected with his love interest from school in Madison Wright to make the blow of turning on his best friend feel much better than it did at the time. Later Creed did achieve what he set out to achieve as he won the IC title after a long feud with Michelle Wright, the more famous sister of Madison. It led to tension between them as Creed fought Michelle with everything and insulted her all the way too. It only went to increase his ego and led to him eventually dumping Madison via text. Creed wouldn't regret his choices as his IC title reign lasted a long time. He would even go on to become World Champion after Crystal Sweet vacated the gold. It led to a clash between Creed and Tyrone Marshall which ended with 'The One Man Army' getting his first World championship. His reign lasted a then record breaking amount of time which saw him defend the title multiple times, defeating the likes of Kelly Nightingale, Trevor Marshall, Lauren Li, Hansom and Dave Wilson which let the world know he had made it as a single's superstar. All good reigns must come to an end as he came up against an up and comer called Pierce Kingsley, who made as many headlines as Creed did without winning the big title. Pierce ended up facing him in a brutal battle which saw Creed lose the title but also suffer a serious knee injury which changed how he worked, how he fought. It left him out for months and took away everything he built. Come June he did make his shocking return, attacking Ashley Ricci and putting her on the shelf. Briefly he even formed an alliance with Emilia Pruzzi and Wrath due to their shared hatred of The Rebel. His return also included the shock reunion with Madison which no one saw coming. The alliance didn't last long as Creed's ego just got in the way and his relationship broke down too. He ended up mixing it up more with old rival Pierce Kingsley and Ashley Ricci which included the winner of match of the year. He however didn't win much and took a break in late 2017 to come back fresh in 2018. When he did return he defeated fellow Brit Matthew Taylor at TXW's first ever London, England PPV known as London Lockdown. His win let him advance to the 'Lockdown' match which saw him challenge for the World title. He took on Ashley Ricci, Pierce Kingsley, Raine, Wrath and Andrew Parker for the gold, but came up short. His next step was to qualify for the Xtreme Lottery months later where he won the Legacy title shot briefcase due to his alliance with Lauren Li, which formed in the weeks prior. They worked well together at Immortality and seemed to be becoming something more. While he didn't let them distract him as his focus was on adding more gold to his resume. Still from there he didn't use his title shot, instead focusing on the King of the ring tournament. After wins over Kry, Gabriel Hunter and Chloe Middleton he soon found himself one on one with Pierce Kingsley, yep again. This time it was a lot more of a fight and no repeat of his injury. Despite that he still lost and Pierce became king. Pierce remains one of few he hasn't defeated one on one. Late in 2018 Creed would go on to win the tag team titles on his own and named Dakota Huntress as his partner. It was his third title reign in TXW after short spells as champ with Tara Malice and Ashley Ricci. Unlike them he didn't have any type of sexual relationship with Dakota as they were purely a great team. He then shockingly joined Team Nightingale after becoming sick and tired of games played by Tyler York and the Justice Bringers. Later he got into a back and forth with Dark Order which had his former tag partner / friend Mike Malice in it. He did up losing to them as his injury record showed itself again as he got another one which forced him to become a Colour Commentator briefly from January to April. It didn't last long as he eventually joined Dark Order when they renamed to the Savages and fought alongside them at War Games. Creed helped them win but a few short weeks later he was drafted to RC while the rest of the group were put on Dark Oasis. It made him think he needed to leave with a statement, so he turned on them and went to the new show washing his hands with them. This wasn't all that helpful as he didn't do much during the draft split and the company became a mess in 2020 due to the Covid-19 situation. He didn't do much of anything during this time despite being briefly appointed CO GM of RC as Calvin Bateman choose to focus on being an Investor. He even suffered an Xtreme Championship loss to Vincent Underwood. Just when 2020 couldn't get any weirder, he reconnected with Lauren Li in a more serious manner and the two helped each other out. It helped Creed more as he entered the Horror Bash and won the thing dressed as Tarzan. He then used his title shot that very night on Ciara Fierce and shockingly became a TWO time World Champion. Will 2020 ever be topped in terms of strange years?
