Later In The Show, Kendrick Was Seen Again Backstage, Just Before His Match In A Extremly Foul Mood, Where He Planted A Hatchet, The Callsign Of A Juggalo, Into Alkertraz's Locker Room Door. Minutes Later He Fought Alkertraz and Jetstream Both In A Tag Team Match, In Which His Partner Andre Holmes Won By Executing A Home Of Death (Reverse Texas Cloverleaf) On Jetstream After Alkertraz Hit His Partner With A One112Twelve (Chokeslam Into A Rockbottom) Before Leaving The Ring and Abandoning Jetstream.

Fueds with the Danger Breed and Omega (2011-2012)[]
On The 4-29 Show, Kendrick Was Scheduled For A Macth Against Andre Holmes And Genesis, But Was Attacked During His Entrance By Shia Storm And His Danger Breed. On The 5-26 Show, Ryan Kendrick Got Payback During The Danger

Breeds Attack On Curt Hawkins By Hitting Them With His Signature Barbwire Bat. Afterwords, During ReAction, Ryan Voiced His Opinion On The Danger Breed And Omega's Assault On Sting After The Match They had In The Main Event. At The 6-15-11 Show, Ryan Took On Matt Sydal In A 1 On 1 Match, Defeating Him After He Reversed The Air Bourne Into A Faygo Driver. On ReAction Following The Show, Ryan Said He Was Finished With The Danger Breed And When Asked If He Was Going To Go After Omega, He "Pleaded The Fifth". On 6-28, Ryan Defeated Brad Kane After Hitting The Mighty Death Pop For The 1-2-3. At Slammiversery, Kendrick Interferred In The Main Event Title Match. He Attacked A Alcohol Doused Omega With A Fireball While He Tried To Esape With The Title, Effectively Burning And Scarring Him. On The Show's ReAction, Ryan Revealed That He Caused The Inferno On Purpose, As Payback For His Mentor, Sting. On the 8-5-11 show, Kendrick participated in a battle royal, but was not involved in the decision. Two weeks later, Kendrick would sneak in and interfere in the main event, with the sole intent of attacking his rival Omega. The two were seperated by security with only partial success, and the Owner of GZWA had to come to the ring to the sort the chaos out by announcing two Hell in a Cell matches, one of which was for the World Title and involved both Kendrick and Omega, for Final Encounter. Before that however, Kendrick and Omega clashed again this time after a tag team match. The two were on the same team, but after the match as Kendrick lay prone, Omega brutalized him with a vicious Con-Chair-To assualt. Finally Final Encounter rolled around, and Kendrick and Omega started the match by brawling top the structure before it could even touch the ground. The two primarily fought each other throughout the match, and as such neither ended up being part of the final decision. Their battles with each other were not over however as they faced each other again on the next show, this time as member of opposing teams during a 6-man tag. This match would come to a premature end for them as Omega executed the End (Moonsault Side Slam) from the top rope to the outside, impacting Kendrick on the steel steps. Kendrick would refuse days off to recover however, and during GZWA's holiday special, Kendrick had a falls count anywhere match with his rival, which soon turned into a parking lot brawl and ended after Kendrick not only reversed the End, but turned it into a Faygo Driver on the hood of a car. The two would clash only one more time, as the result of a cringeworthy spot that occurred during the Slammy Awards Special, the two fell from the top rope to the steel steps outside, with the metal bending to contour their bodies. This was done as a compromise for both men in real life, as Kendrick had an injury and Omega had requested time off. This injury would keep Kendrick from returning to GZWA for two years.
Motor City Wrestling (2012)[]
In an attempt to return to wrestling, Sheets joined Motor City Wrestling, a company that operated directly out of Detroit, on it's Proving Ground show. He even debuted a new look and gimmick, "Sixx Solid" Elias Laveaux, a more aggressive heel who would exploit any opportunity to prove that he was better then the rest. On 9-20-12, Laveaux debuted on the mic, showing off for the ladies and insulting the rest, claiming that he'd break champion Nial Kassian in half at the following show. However Laveaux's 9-22 debut ended in a loss after a good showing, tapping out to Kassian's ankle lock. After exchanging words backstage, Elias and Nial teamed on the 9-29 show to pick up a win, after Kassian hit opponent Alyx Haze with a Spinning Fireman's Carry Facebuster. Laveaux earned his first singles win on October 7th, defeating Anthony Tompkins with the Sixx Shot Cylinder. Unfortunately Proving Ground was dropped by MCW soon after, and Laveaux returned to Ohio for some time.
Second GZWA Run (2014-Current)[]
The Extreme Juggalo's (2014-Current)[]
Ryan returned to GZWA during they're Valentine's Day Special, debuting his Sixx Solid look and a new entrance. After insulting several fan's, Kendrick offered Barbed Wire Massacure match as an open challenge to anyone in the back for the following week. The match was accepted by The Extreme Enigma, however the two decided instead to team up for GZWA's first Tag Team Championship Tournement, as the Extreme Juggalo's. They made their tag team debut (as well as Kendrick's return) on 3-21, Against Nikki Bella, who lacked a partner at the beginning of the match. After some initial confusion, along with interference by Samuel Shaw, and the return of John Cena, Enigma and Kendrick capitalized by hitting Cena and Nikki with stereo superkicks for the pin. In their second match of the Tournement, the two faced Hano Eiyu and Kayda Erikson, two capable competitors. Luck was on their side again however when Kayda's personal issues ended up being her teams undoing, and Kayda fell victim to the Juggalo's Ride the Tempest maneuver. At Final Encounter, the Juggalo's participated in their third match of the Tournement against Victor Phillips and Raven, showing off how well of an oiled machine they were. This match ended after yet another victory after interference from Raven's Women's division rival Mei Long. The Tournement continued on the post Final Encounter show as the Winner's bracket came to a close after an intense match between The Fallen 2.0 and The Extreme Juggalo's, where Enigma picked up the win after Kendrick helped him reverse Jacob's Contra Code, dropping him on top of his partner, Paige. The Tournement hit a bump at this point, as Paige not only bailed on her partner (They were added to the loser's bracket), but left the company as well, along with fellow Vixen AJ Lee. It was decided that the Tournement would conclude in January at Dead or Alive, in a Triple Threat Tag Team TLC match, also involving the MisFits and the Ladies of Doom. In the meanwhile however, Kendrick and Enigma began helping CM Punk one up his nemesis and owner of the company, Xion Zeros, in a series of matches against his Enforcers group, as well as the MisFits. Finally, at Dead or Alive, Kendrick and Enigma, though they put up a valiant effort, lost the TLC match when Laura Jackson pulled down the belts to win the Match for the MisFits. (Incomplete)

Dallas Wrestling Association (2014-Present)[]
Kendrick wearing his face paint, which he also uses when under the guise of Blade Runner Wolfe in DWA.
Kendrick came to DWA for one night only on their Ultimate Warrior tribute show on 4-11. Wrestling under the name Blade Runner Wolfe. During his first match, against Christian Cage, he used many of Warrior's moves and mannerism's, finishing the match off with Warriors Big Splash after a Gorilla Press. Later in the show, Kendrick appeared again as Wolfe in a roster wide Battle Royal, eliminating several opponents and even hitting and eliminating the company's World Champion, Raven, with the Warriors Anthem, before being eliminated by Mark Henry. On the 15th, Kendrick announced that he would be signing a contract with DWA. Since then, Kendrick has made numerous one shot appearances for DWA, as well as a high profile best of Three series against Matt Hardy, which Hardy won the last two matches of. After his fued with Matt Hardy, Ryan was attacked by the debuting "Omega" Cliff Daniels, who claimed a man of Kendricks stature should have never been featured so prominently. Cliff would then hit the unconcious Kendrick with the Red Lotus, kayfabe breaking the juggalo's arm and putting him on the shelf for 3 months.
Lone Star Wrestling (2015)[]
Kendrick has also began to work for LSW, reviving the Laveaux name and character, where he was in the first ever LSW match, with a spot in the 6-pack survival Championship match on the line. Even with a cheap shot before the match leaning it in his favor, he could not defeat his opponent, Spartacus. Even his post match revenge was thwarted when referee Dale Grimes got involved, and Laveaux gave him a rolling elbow for his troubles. The following Saturday, Elias had a follow up match with Spartacus, with the 6-Pack Survival spot on the line again. Elias fell short again however, when the match came to a Double Count out draw, after the two prevented the other from returning to the ring. On the next episode of TNT, Elias participated in a qualifier match for the Pride of Texas. This match was against Casino under Pride rules, essentially an Iron Man match. Going into the match, Laveaux boasted that he'd not only win the title, but make it more prestigious then the World title itself. Laveaux then fought smart throughout the match, getting himself disqualified at one point, but with the damage done, he was able to score 2 points winning the match 2-1 and advancing. Heat would roll around fast with the Pride of Texas on the line, with Elias taking on not just Ryan Carter, but Nicholas Lancer as well, again under Pride rules. This match would not go to Elias' favor unfortunately, as the match ended in a 15 minute time limit draw. Elias was scheduled to have a match the following Tuesday, but the company went under before the show could take place.
SupremePRO (2016-Present)[]
On June 13, Sheets officialy signed a contract with SupremePRO as his Laveaux persona, just missing the cut off for their New York PPV. Unfortuantly another wrestler named Marcus gave Laveaux directions to the TNA building instead of the SupremePRO arena, resulting in Laveaux having to make a 2 day journey across the country from Orlando to Hollywood. Upon reaching the arena, Laveaux had just enough time to get his things situated before making his his House Show debut in a match against Lio Rush. After a good back and forth affair, Elias decimated Rush with his newest move: The Order 66, earning him the pin.
