+===Combat Zone Wrestling===
-'''Dylan Keith Summers''' (born [[July 13]] [[1973]] in [[Morgantown, West Virginia]]) is an American [[professional wrestler]] best known by his stage name '''(The) Necro Butcher'''. Primarily wrestling for [[Combat Zone Wrestling]] in [[Philadelphia]], Summers also competes in [[Full Impact Pro]], [[Independent Wrestling Association Mid-South|IWA-Mid South]], [[Pro Wrestling Guerrilla]] and [[Ring of Honor]], among others. In the past, Summers made appearances in [[Chikara (professional wrestling)|CHIKARA]] as CP Munk, a [[straightedge]] [[chipmunk]] that was a spoof of fellow wrestler [[CM Punk]].
+Necro won the Tournament of Death (TOD) 4 by defeating [[John Zandig]] and [[Nick Gage]]. After this, he feuded with Nick Gage, John Zandig, and [[Justice Pain]] and fought them in a losing effort in the Cage of Death match.<ref name=dec12/> He won the Ultraviolent Underground Championship when he defeated Zandi at TOD 4. Butcher and[[Toby Klein]] teamed as defeated Nick Gage and Justice Pain. He is currently engaged in a feud with Danny Havoc where he has taken on a "Hollywood Hogan" type persona. In recent event he has been accompanied to the ring by [[Nick Berk]].
-Summers is well-known for his willingness to participate in a creative and dangerous mix of [[hardcore wrestling]] and deathmatches.
-==Wrestling career==
-In 1998, Summers made his professional wrestling debut after teaming with Aaron White to take on Victor Pain and Canyon. Summers continued to work small independent shows across Texas. On March 16, 1999, as Necro Butcher, he won his first professional wrestling championship, after defeating Damon Richards to become IHW Hardcore champion. Butcher's popularity continued to dominate Texas wrestling, and at his debut in TCW, he defeated rival Joey Diego to become the company's Hardcore champion. His success in TCW came to a halt after a dispute with its promoter. He lost the Hardcore title to Hellhammer before leaving the company. Butcher continued to build up his reputation as the most violent Death Match wrestler in Texas. On October 10, 1999, Butcher faced [[Kevin Canady|"Mad" Man Pondo]] for the first time. He would face Pondo again in JCW (Juggalo Championshit Wrestling) in a Death Match in 2003. Another match in JCW included a "Light Tube" match from the 2003 Gathering of the Juggalos where he squared off against "Hollywood" Chuck Hogan ("Death Dealer" Tommy Starr in a Hogan-like zombie mask).
-===IWA Mid-South===
-Throughout 2001, Butcher had worked IWA Mid-South in an attempt to make a name for himself in the top independent leagues. Becoming a regular across the NWA promotions, Butcher gained widespread visibility in 2002. In July 2002, competing in IWA Mid-South, he defeated Mark Wolf, Mitch Page, [[2 Tuff Tony]], and finally Spyder Nate Webb to become the 2002 [[IWA Mid-South King of the Deathmatch|King of the Deathmatch]]. Necro would go to the finals in the 2005 Strong Style Tournament, defeating Eddie Kingston, but losing to Chris Hero.
-In 2005 and 2006, Necro had two high profile matches against both [[Samoa Joe]] and [[Low-Ki]]. He lost to Joe in their first match, the main event of IWA's debut in the [[ECW Arena]]. He then went on to lose in January 2006 again to Joe. Three months later, in Low-Ki's second match in the promotion, he took out Necro. The two met in a rematch in December, where the stipulation was a tap out/knock out finish. Although Necro lost all four matches, his star remained high after taking a lot of abuse from both Joe and Ki.
-Necro eventually won his first IWA gold, the Death Match title, on September 9 in [[Sellersburg]], [[Indiana]] in a three way dance against [[Corporal Robinson]] and Tank. He would lose the title on March 1st to Danny Havoc.
-===Combat Zone Wrestling===
-His success in IWA-MS lead him to become a name attraction for hardcore oriented indy promotions in [[North America]]. For Combat Zone Wrestling, Butcher worked a program with [[Matt Prince|Wifebeater]], losing to him in the first Tournament of Death in 2002. Butcher returned the following year and was eliminated in round two by [[Ian Rotten]]. He reached the final at the 3rd annual Tournament of Death before finally winning Tournament of Death 4 by defeating [[John Zandig]] and [[Nick Gage]].<ref>[http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/czw/040724.html Online World of Wrestling<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref><ref name=dec12>[http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/results/czw/051210.html Online World of Wrestling<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> This victory made him the only person ever to win both the King of the Deathmatch and Tournament of Death. After this, he feuded with Nick Gage, John Zandig, and [[Justice Pain]] and fought them in a losing effort in the Cage of Death match.<ref name=dec12/> He briefly held the Ultraviolent Underground Championship when the current champion Zandig presented him with the belt at Tournament of Death IV: Butcher had eliminated Zandig from the tournament. Butcher and "Mr Insanity" [[Toby Klein]] teamed as "The [[Tough Crazy Bastards]]" to win the CZW tag belts from The H8 Club, Nick Gage and Justice Pain. They subsequently dropped them to The Kings of Wrestling, [[Chris Hero]] and [[Claudio Castagnoli]]. He is currently engaged in a feud with former CZW Junior Heavyweight Champion Danny Havoc where he has taken on a "Hollywood Hogan" type persona, after his part in the upcoming movie “The Wrestler” with [[Mickey Rourke]], claiming he is too big for hardcore. In recent event he has been accompanied to the ring by [[Nick Berk]] aka Nicky Benz.
 ===Ring of Honor===
-Necro first wrestled in the [[Ring of Honor]] promotion in 2006. He came in as part of [[Chris Hero]]'s invasion of the company, representing CZW. He had several big matches, including being part of Team CZW in the Cage of Death match at Death before Dishonor IV. His last appearance was in a [[Barbed wire match|No Ropes Barbed Wire Match]] against [[B.J. Whitmer]].
-He returned to ROH in September 2007 at ROH's third pay-per-view [[ROH Man Up|Man Up]], as part of debuting stable '''[[The Age of the Fall]]''' with [[Jimmy Jacobs]], [[Tyler Black]] and [[Lacey (wrestler)|Lacey]]. With barbed wire around his arm and fist, the three attacked [[Briscoe Brothers]]. Later that night he was responsible for the end of two matches. First, he threw a chair into the ring, hitting [[Jack Evans]] as he was wrestling Tyler Black, and then he broke up an ensuing Six Man Tag Team match after punching the referee.
-In early October 2007, as a result of the incident at Man Up, Butcher won two back-to-back [[Professional wrestling match types#Hardcore-based variations|Anything Goes Matches]] against [[Briscoe Brothers|Jay Briscoe]]. Since then Butcher has been featured in a number of high-profile 'brawling' and hardcore-style matches, including a loss to [[Bryan Danielson]] in a 'Relaxed Rules' match, losing to [[Jack Evans]] in a [[Professional wrestling match types#Hardcore-based variations|No Disqualification Match]], defeating [[Kevin Steen]] in a [[Professional wrestling match types#Hardcore-based variations|Street Fight]], and a loss in a 3-Way No Disqualification Match to [[Roderick Strong]] for the [[FIP World Heavyweight Championship]].
-===Non-deathmatch accomplishments===
-Outside of the lighttubes and barbed wire which gave him his fame, Butcher has also gained critical acclaim for his wild brawls and very physical "slugfests". Perhaps the most famous of these was his first match against TNA and ROH veteran [[Samoa Joe]] at the [[IWA Mid-South]] "Something To Prove" in 2005.<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFHDkLBABQ4 Video of the match]</ref> Despite no weapons beyond a chair and a guardrail coming into play, the match was exceptionally brutal and well-received by deathmatch fans and purists alike, proving that Butcher could put on compelling matches without necessarily needing the weapons with which he was normally associated.
-He also competed in the [[Chikara Pro Wrestling|CHIKARA]] Tag World Grand Prix 2005 along with Mad Man Pondo (making it to the quarter-finals before being eliminated via disqualification for illegal tactics)<ref>[http://www.hpwf.org/~chikara/results2.shtml Chikara<!-- Bot generated title -->]</ref> and has wrestled (and won) a European catch wrestling match with [[Chris Hero]].<ref name=necro>{{cite web|url=http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/profiles/n/necro-butcher.html|title=Necro Butcher's Profile|publisher=Online World of Wrestling|accessdate=2007-08-12}}</ref> On April 9, 2006, he challenged for the PWG World Championship , but lost to the champion Joey Ryan.<ref name=necro/> Most recently, many promoters have taken note of Butcher's brawling skills and have increasingly begun to put him in non-deathmatch competitions with wrestlers he would not normally be paired up against. IWA-MS in particular has attempted matches between Butcher and Samoa Joe (twice), [[Homicide (wrestler)|Homicide]], [[Roderick Strong]], Chris Hero, [[Super Dragon]], [[Low Ki]] and [[Eddie Kingston]].
-Butcher once wrestled in CHIKARA as part of 'Team [[World Wide Fund for Nature|WWF]]' on their February 24, 2006 Tag-Team Tournament show as CP Munk - the 'Straight Edge' Chipmunk (Acorn Free and Better Than You), a parody of [[CM Punk]] as it was a large chipmunk costume with 'CM Punk-style' markings (including a large Pepsi logo on his arm and tape over his fists with a 'X' drawn on each). He was partnered by 'Colt Ca-Bunny' (a parody of [[Colt Cabana]], Punk's tag-team partner, in the form of a rabbit costume) who was actually [[Joker (wrestler)|Joker]]. They would defeat ROH students Matt Turner & Anthony Franco in the first round, but lose to Eddie Kingston & [[Sabian (wrestler)|Sabian]] in the second.<ref name=necro/>
-Currently he has wrestled regularly for [[Full Impact Pro]], where he first gained notoriety as both a brawler and as half of a hardcore tag-team with the [[Kevin Canady|"Mad Man" Pondo]] especially in their feud for the FIP Tag-Team Championship against [[Briscoe Brothers|The Briscoe Brothers]]. Since then he had memorable matches against [[Roderick Strong]] in an unsuccessful challenge for the [[FIP World Heavyweight Championship]], and an Anything Goes match against [[Delirious (wrestler)|Delirious]].
+He is part of'''[[The Age of the Fall]]''' with [[Jimmy Jacobs]], [[Tyler Black]] and [[Lacey (wrestler)|Lacey]]. At the Man Up show, with barbed wire around his arm and fist, the three attacked [[Briscoe Brothers]]. Butcher later wrestled both of the Briscoes in Hardcore rules matches winning both.
