He later formed a tag team with Punk to win the World Tag Team Championship twice. He also had rivalries with Homicide and then-World Champion Bryan Danielson. He has also toured in countries outside of the United States, and he was a part of the short lived Wrestling Society X on MTV in late 2006, where he portrayed an "old school" wrestling persona. In 2007, he left ROH to wrestle in Ohio Valley Wrestling, a developmental territory of World Wrestling Entertainment, where he won the Television Championship once and the Southern Tag Team Championship once with Charles Evans and once with Shawn Spears. He made several appearances, as Scotty Goldman, with WWE on its SmackDown brand before being released from his contract in February 2009.

Professional wrestling career
Ring of Honor (2002–2007)
Scott Colton was trained by Chris Guy (Ace Steel) and Danny Dominion, alongside Phil Brooks (CM Punk).[7] He broke into Ring of Honor with the name Colt Cabana as CM Punk's rival before joining Punk's alliance, the Second City Saints.[8] Cabana and Punk later became two–time ROH Tag Team Champions.[9][10] With Punk becoming a singles star, Cabana feuded with Austin Aries and Nigel McGuinness.[7] On August 13, 2005 Cabana defeated Punk in a two out of three falls match in their hometown of Chicago in what was supposed to be Punk's last ROH match before going to World Wrestling Entertainment.[11]
Between August 2005 and April 2006, Cabana was involved in a feud with Homicide, which featured Cabana being strangled with a metal coat hanger, bleeding from numerous chair shots, having Drāno poured down his throat, being piledriven off the ring apron through a table, and getting his head crushed between a ladder.[12] On April 1, 2006 in Chicago, Cabana finally got his revenge and earned the respect of Homicide after a Chicago Street Fight, which saw the feud settled with a handshake and an embrace.[13]
After his decisive victory against Homicide, Colt Cabana challenged the ROH World Champion Bryan Danielson for the World Championship at Ring of Honor's 100th show on April 22, 2006 in Philadelphia.[14] Danielson defeated him in less than five minutes. Feeling he lost the match because he had spent the past eight months "brawling" as opposed to wrestling, Cabana rededicated himself. He eventually earned a rematch against Danielson at Chi-Town Struggle on June 24, though he once again lost. Cabana received one last shot against Danielson for the ROH World Championship on August 26. The two fought to a 60-minute time limit draw in a two out of three falls match, with each wrestler earning one fall.[15]
In October 2006, Cabana was involved in an auto accident with fellow Ring of Honor stars Adam Pearce and Dave Prazak. Cabana was driving from a Ring of Honor event in Dayton, Ohio when he lost control of their car due to the weather conditions. The car was totaled but everyone was wearing seat belts, which saved their lives. It was initially reported that Cabana had to have a toe amputated, though in reality he had only bruised it. Despite the injury, Cabana wrestled the next night in Chicago Ridge, Illinois.[16] Pearce and Prazak also walked away with bruises but were otherwise fine.
On April 3, 2007 it was revealed by the Ring of Honor website that Colton had signed a WWE developmental contract and would soon leave to begin working for their developmental territory Ohio Valley Wrestling.[17] At Good Times, Great Memories (named in his honor), held on April 28 in Chicago, Cabana defeated long-time friend and fellow Chicago wrestler Adam Pearce.[18]
Outside the US (2004–present)
In 2004 and 2005, Colton went on extensive tours of Europe, competing in Scotland, Germany and France, but mainly England. He received the 2004 Match of the Year in a European rounds style bout with World of Sport journeyman, Johnny Kidd. Cabana also did a short tour of Puerto Rico for IWA PR in early 2005. During 2006, Cabana would become a popular wrestler in the British promotion 1 Pro Wrestling (1PW) often tag teaming with Darren Burridge as Team SHAG (Street Hooligans Adventure Gang). During 1PW's first anniversary show Team SHAG won the 1PW Tag Team Championship during a three way ladder match against the defending champions Jonny Storm and Jody Fleisch, and the Southern Comfort team of Tracey Smothers and Chris Hamrick.
Cabana also made his Japanese debut for Zero 1 Max in 2006. In a later tour, he formed an alliance with Steve Corino and Yoshi known as the P Force Men, which wore all pink outfits. Colt's also appeared and wrestled for Ireland's Irish Whip Wrestling, Austria's Rings of Europe and various Montreal & Toronto Canadian independents. Colton's final European appearance as an independent wrestler took place at UK promotion 1PW on April 6, 2007 where he, along with fellow Team SHAG member Darren Burridge, successfully defended the 1PW Tag Team Championship against Doug Williams and Nigel McGuinness, before formally retiring his half of the title.
On April 30, 2010 Cabana made his Australian debut. Cabana won a two day tournament to become the winner of the NHPW Global Conflict Shield. The tournament was held in Perth, Australia. Cabana beat Balls Mahoney in the finals.
September 4, 2010 saw Colt debut in Mexico City, Mexico for the IWL promotion. He defeated NWA Heavyweight Champion, 'Scrap Iron' Adam Pearce.
On August 26, 2011, Colt headlined the inaugural show for PCW - Preston City Wrestling, joining once again with Darren Burridge as Team SHAG.
Wrestling Society X (2006)
In November 2006, Colton taped several matches for Wrestling Society X (WSX), a new wrestling series on MTV. He competed under the name Matt Classic, who is a throwback to the wrestlers of the 1950s and 1960s.[19] His gimmick used "old school" moves such as the skull vice and the abdominal stretch as finishers. To further enhance his gimmick as an old school wrestler, his WSX profile listed him as having won the Heavyweight Championship in 1952 (28 years before he was born).[19] According to Kevin Kleinrock, the plan was for Cabana to appear in season two as "Letterman" Colt Cabana, the frat brother of Matt Sydal and Sydal's girlfriend Lizzy Valentine would be cheating on Sydal with Cabana. The Matt Classic gimmick was created as a way to "bring Colt into the WSX family" in the first season, and Kleinrock said they did not expect the character to catch on.[citation needed]
World Wrestling Entertainment (2007–2009)
Colton has also worked a number of preliminary matches in World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) on its Heat and Velocity shows. On one occasion, he competed under the name Chris Guy,[20] the real name of his trainer Ace Steel. The real Chris Guy wrestled in a match for WWE in 2004 under the name of Scott Colton, Colton's real name.[21]
On April 3, 2007 it was announced that Colton had signed a contract with WWE. He was assigned to Ohio Valley Wrestling, their developmental territory, and made his debut at a TV taping on May 30. Wrestling as Colt "Boom Boom" Cabana, he lost to Michael W. Kruel in the first round of a tournament to determine who would face The Miz at an OVW live event on June 8.[22] He won his first match in OVW when he forced the Belgium Brawler to submit with the Chicago Crab on June 23. After helping Al Snow regain the role of OVW Troubleshooter from Kruel, Cabana became involved in the OVW Television Championship picture, defeating champion Shawn Spears by countout on August 11. Cabana twice came close to winning the title only to be denied by the TV time-limit expiring. Cabana defeated Spears on October 31, 2007 to win the OVW Television title.[23] When OVW was replaced by Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW) as the WWE developmental territory, Cabana was moved down to FCW.
On the August 15, 2008 episode of SmackDown, Colton made his debut as Scotty Goldman, losing to The Brian Kendrick. On the August 22 episode of SmackDown, Goldman was a participant in the 10-man battle royal match to determine a qualifier for the WWE Championship scramble match at Unforgiven. Goldman lost after being eliminated by Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder. His last singles match on SmackDown! was a quick loss against The Great Khali. He appeared in an Elimination Chamber qualifying battle royal on the February 6, 2009 edition but was eliminated first. This was his first appearance on TV in almost five months. Colton had a show on WWE.com, called Good as Goldman, formerly known as What's Crackin'?, which premiered on January 14, 2009.[6] He, however, was released from his WWE contract on February 20, 2009.[24] His final match for WWE was a defeat by Umaga and was aired on the February 20 episode of SmackDown.

On February 21, 2009, Colton made his return to Pro Wrestling Guerrilla at Express Written Consent where he, as Colt Cabana, challenged Chris Hero for the PWG World Championship in a 3-way match which also included Human Tornado. Hero was able to retain his belt by pinning Tornado and afterwards promised Cabana a 1-on-1 shot at the belt.[25] That match took place on April 12 at PWG's hundredth show, where Hero was able to retain his title.[26] On March 14, 2009, he was defeated by Loca Vida at 2CW in Binghamton, NY in a classic comedy match. On March 20, 2009, he wrestled for Firestorm Pro Wrestling in Cleveland at Rise of the Real Underground 2009 in a match up against J-rocc which he had won.
On March 21, 2009, he made his surprise return to ROH. In a tag team match at the 7th Anniversary Show, he teamed with Bryan Danielson to defeat Bison Smith and Jimmy Rave, who was also returning to ROH.[27] On April 25, Cabana received an ROH World Title shot against Jerry Lynn but lost.[28] On June 6, Cabana debuted on Ring of Honor Wrestling, ROH's television program, teaming with Brent Albright.[29] On December 5 in Chicago Austin Aries successfully defended his ROH World Title against Cabana in a steel cage match and as a result Cabana can never again challenge for the title in his hometown.[30][31] He has since been teaming with El Generico in his feud with Kevin Steen and Steve Corino.[32] On October 16, 2010, Cabana defeated Corino in an "I Quit" match in Chicago Ridge to end their feud.[33]
At the September 22 tapings of Total Nonstop Action Wrestling's weekly television program Impact!, Colton, under his Colt Cabana persona, wrestled in a dark match, where he defeated Puma.[34]
On February 25, 2010, Chikara announced that Colton would take part in the 2010 King of Trios tournament in late April, under his Matt Classic persona, teaming up with Dasher Hatfield and Sugar Dunkerton as the Throwbacks.[35] On April 23, the trio of Classic, Hatfield and Dunkerton were defeated in the first round of the tournament by the reigning King of Trios winners F.I.S.T. (Chuck Taylor, Icarus and Gran Akuma).[36]

Colton is Jewish.[6] He has a brother named Greg Colton, who works on Fox Network's Family Guy. As well as his well documented friendship with CM Punk, Colton is also good friends with current WWE wrestlers Daniel Bryan, Johnny Curtis, Zack Ryder, Curt Hawkins & Evan Bourne.
Other media
As previously mentioned, Colton and CM Punk are good friends in real life, and they are both mentioned in Kidd Russell's single "I'll Do One." Russell also performed the "Copa Cabana" remix that Colton used as entrance music with his Colt Cabana persona.
On WWE Raw, in November 2010, Punk wore one of Colton's signature shirts that says "I * Colt". The star being The Star of David. On June 27, 2011, during a worked shoot promo, CM Punk raised the possibility of bringing the WWE title to Ring of Honor, before looking directly at the camera, waving, and asking "Hey Colt Cabana, how you doing?" Two weeks later Punk once again mentioned Colton's Colt Cabana character and his tenure in WWE, causing a "Colt Cabana" chant from the crowd.
In December 2010, Colt appeared as "The Bomb" opposite Glenn Gilbertti's character "Joey Mayhem" collectively known as "The Goon Squad" on a spec TV pilot written by Michael Plumides entitled, GHOST TREK: THE KINSEY REPORT. The 22 minute program was shot on location in Charlotte, NC. GHOST TREK also stars Jonny Fairplay and Michael Bortone(CBS' Survivor), Gia Allemand (ABC's Bachelor Pad), and Addy Miller (The Walking Dead). GHOST TREK: THE KINSEY REPORT won "Best Comedy" at the Fright Night Film Fest on July 24, 2011.
As Colt Cabana, Colton is currently touring the United States doing a standup comedy act with fellow wrestler Mick Foley. He also performs improvisational sketches in Chicago with his comedy troupe Keyfabe (a play on the term "kayfabe").
He is the host of a podcast radio show called The Art of Wrestling that is available every Thursday on WeLoveColt.com and iTunes.
Since June 2011, he and comedian Marty DeRosa have been writing and starring in a YouTube show called Creative Has Nothing For You. The show is directed and edited by Michael Sanchez of lifejazzfilms.com.
Colton briefly appeared on Zack Ryder's YouTube show, Z! True Long Island Story.
On July 17, 2011 Colton appeared in the crowd at the WWE's Money In the Bank PPV. He was there to support long time friend CM Punk. During the match, Punk performed a suicide dive onto John Cena in front of Cabana and the two slapped hands afterward. Commentators Booker T and Jerry Lawler referred to Cabana as "a fan" not mentioning that he is also a former WWE Superstar and friend of Punk.
Wrestling Road Diaries
In 2011, Roundtable Creations released The Wrestling Road Diaries, a wrestling documentary that features Cabana, Bryan Danielson, and Sal Rinauro. The film was shot over a period of 10 days in September 2009, and follows the wrestlers as they travel from show to show. It also shows them performing for various wrestling companies and training aspiring wrestlers. (Wrestling Road Diaries. Dir. Eric Santamaria. Perf. Colt Cabana, Bryan Danielson, Sal Rinauro. DVD. Roundtable Creations, 2011.) In the film's first few minutes, Cabana offered a brief assessment of his time with WWE and what it felt like to be back on the independent circuit:
"I went to WWE, and now I'm back [...]but this is what I know well, and it's very familiar, so in that aspect, being back on the indies is okay, and it's fun, and it's familiar, so it's what I know best. Even though there's world-class wrestlers up there, I wasn't having world class matches. When I was in developmental, of course, a lot of my matches were against guys who had been playing football and didn't even know how to wrestle. And then when I was in WWE, my game wasn't rising. By going back to the independents,it's almost as if I'm allowed to use what i've learned in the WWE. I'm allowed to use that now in a wrestling ring [because] I really wasn't given an opportunity to." (Wrestling Road Diaries. Dir. Eric Santamaria. Perf. Colt Cabana, Bryan Danielson, Sal Rinauro. DVD. Roundtable Creations, 2011.)
