Professional wrestling career
Insane Championship Wrestling (2014–present)
Sha Samuels debuted for Insane Championship Wrestling in 2014 in London, teaming alongside Rob Cage & Jackie Polo, in a losing effort against Grado, Wolfgang & Noam Dar. Samuels quickly become embroiled in a rivalry against Grado, with Sha tormenting Grado for months, leading to a singles match between the two at Fear & Loathing VII at the Barrowland Ballroom. Sha would be victorious in this match, after Martin Stone became involved in the contest.
The following year, Sha aligned himself with James R. Kennedy's faction, The 55, composed of Sha, Kid Fite, Timm Wylie, Martin Kirby & Bram. Often acting as hired mercenaries for The Black Label, the team of Samuels & Kid Fite would eventually target Polo Promotions and the ICW Tag Team Championships. After a number of contests between the teams, including a match at Fear & Loathing VIII, The 55 would eventually capture the titles at the final event of 2015. Sha & Fite would remain champions until Barramania II, on 3 April 2016, losing the titles back to Polo Promotions.
At Shug's Hoose Party 3, Sha would shock the ICW fans, when he defected from The Black Label to join Mark Dallas's team, aligning with Grado & Noam Dar against Drew Galloway, Wolfgang & Jack Jester, to win Dallas 50% of the company back from Red Lightning.
