Professional wrestling career
[edit]Chikara
[edit]Hatfield debuted for Chikara at King of Trios 2007 in Barnesville, Pennsylvania under the ring name Create A Wrestler in which he lost to Chuck Taylor. The premise of the Create-A-Wrestler gimmick was that he did not have a defined character and the fans would get to suggest ideas for gimmicks for him. Because his identity was entirely up to the fans, he was billed from "Wherever You Want!"[6] After having brief runs as MosCow the Communist Bovine and Ultimo Breakfast, he was reintroduced at Chikara Young Lions Cup VII as Hatfield, a wrestling baseball player. Hatfield formed a tag team called the Throwbacks with fellow Chikara superstar Sugar Dunkerton, a wrestling basketball player, who in 2011 failed to capture the Chikara Campeonatos de Parejas. Hatfield then joined Mark Angelosetti to form the new Throwbacks and successfully captured the Campeonatos De Parejas belts from Jigsaw and The Shard in 2014 until December where they lost the belts to The Devastation Corporation at Tomorrow Never Dies.
Hatfield was named one of the ten team captains for Chikara's Challenge of the Immortals tournament.[7] Hatfield picked Mark Angelosetti, then-Chikara Grand Champion Icarus and Chikara Young Lions Cup Champion Heidi Lovelace.[8] This team would be named "Dasher's Dugout".
The Unmasking of Dasher Hatfield and end of character
[edit]On May 26, 2019 at Aniversario: Scotch Mist, he was defeated by his (kayfabe) son Boomer Hatfield in a mask vs. mask match.[9] Hatfield left Chikara soon after the promotion shut down on June 24, 2020, resulting in him being the final Grand Champion.[10] He later announced on 18 July 2019 that he was changing his ring name to A Very Good Professional Wrestler.[11]
