Eastern Championship Wrestling / Extreme Championship Wrestling (1993–1996, 1997, 1998)
Meyers first appeared in ECW at a joint-promotional event between ECW and Mid-Eastern Wrestling Federation on November 14, 1993, where he defeated Trent Young. He began full-time wrestling for ECW by making his debut on the February 15, 1994 episode of Hardcore TV by losing to Mr. Hughes. He wrestled mainly on the undercard. He had several matches against ECW's biggest superstars at ECW supercards, but he was never able to defeat ECW's top talent. Haviland's gimmick in ECW was "The Shah of ECW", a fan favorite. During any exchange of blows, fans would chant "Shah!" every time he landed a punch or kick, and "Shit!" when his opponent retaliated.[6]
After leaving ECW he remained in the wrestling industry, working for various promotions continuing using a hardcore style, including IPW, IWA Mid-South, FOW, MLW, and MCW, among others.[12] In May 1997, Meyers worked at least two matches for World Championship Wrestling (WCW), losing to The Giant and The Barbarian.[12] In May 1999, he appeared for one night in the WWF (World Wrestling Federation), teaming with Chris Nelson, facing The Hardy Boyz on WWF Shotgun Saturday Night. He also trained wrestlers, such as Scoot Andrews and Travis Tomko.[1][13] He wrestled predominantly in the Florida independent circuit in the latter days of his career. He retired in 2011.
Death
On November 15, 2015, fellow ECW alumnus Axl Rotten tweeted that Haviland would undergo brain surgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital.[14] On December 5, 2015, Haviland died from complications of that surgery. He was two days away from his 42nd birthday.[15]
