History in WCPW[]
Primate was first introduced in WCPW Loaded Episode 1 as a wrestler managed by Suzie Kennedy. His wrestling debut occurred in Episode 2 against Drake.
His first match in a programme with Joe Coffey was on WCPW Loaded Episode 3. The match ended in a no contest when Primate attacked Joe Coffey with a wrench.
At Built To Destroy, Joe Coffey and Primate had a No Holds Barred match, which was won by Joe Coffey.
In Loaded Episode 6, Primate interfered in a match between Joe Coffey and Big Damo, causing Coffey to lose his match, as well as his chance to win the WCPW World Championship. This lead to a final match between the pair on Loaded Episode 7, won by Coffey.
At Road to No Regrets, Primate announced his retirement from professional wrestling.
