1969

David Tyler Cash (born July 31, 1969) better known by his ring name Kid Kash, is an American mixed martial artist and retired professional wrestler, best known for his tenures with Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW), Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA) and World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE).

Kash's father was a boxer and Kash began training by the age of seven years.

He went on to become a professional fighter and worked in Japan.

Cash met up with Ricky Morton during his travels, and took Cash on the road with him and continued his training.

Working as a welder by day, Cash wrestled on the independent circuit.

Under the name David Tyler Morton he formed a short lived tag team with Ricky Morton.

1989

Kash started wrestling at age 20 in 1989.

1996

Cash's first mainstream exposure came in late November 1996 with ECW.

Cash, then wrestling as David Tyler Morton, went to Philadelphia with friend and sometimes tag team partner "Heavy Metal" Ric Savage.

Cash was friends with New Jack of the Gangstas and Rob Van Dam, and it was Rob Van Dam who first introduced Cash to Paul Heyman.

1997

In 1997, Cash left ECW to return to the indies and even wrestled house shows for WWF.

1998

He also appeared once at TV tapings, using ring name David Jericho, on April 28, 1998, at WWF Shotgun Saturday Night where he was defeated by Taka Michinoku.

During a WWF house show against the tag team Too Cool, Cash broke both of his ankles after performing a botched hurricanrana on Scotty 2 Hotty.

The injury sidelined Cash for a while.

1999

Cash resurfaced in ECW in late 1999 under a new gimmick, "Kid Kash".

The name change was due to his resemblance to musician Kid Rock.

Under this name, Kash would dress like Kid Rock from his Devil Without a Cause album, and even used the song (and named one of his finishers, The Bawitaba) during this phase in his career.

Just months after his return Kash suffered a broken jaw in Atlanta at the hands of The Dupps.

He had legitimate heat with the tag team for their supposed stiff and shoot moves on Kash during matches and as payback during a planned run in during Kash's match Bo Dupp did an unplanned frog splash right on Kash's face, breaking both sides of his jaw.

At the time Atlanta was going through a flu epidemic and so Kash had to get a private physician to fix his jaw because the hospitals were swamped.

Despite the injury Kash continued to wrestle, and never took a night off.

He even wrestled on the Guilty as Charged PPV the very next night after driving from Atlanta to Birmingham, AL, less than 24 hours after his jaw was wired shut.

This earned him the respect of Paul Heyman and several other ECW wrestlers.

2000

Kash recovered from the injury without any problems and went on to wrestle tag matches, cruiserweight-style matches, and even wrestled Mike Awesome for the ECW World Heavyweight Championship at Living Dangerously on March 12, 2000, although he lost after he was superbombed from the top rope through a Table.

His tag team partners during the time include the likes of Rob Van Dam, Super Crazy, Nova and The Sandman.

Kash won the ECW World Television Championship by defeating Rhino on August 26, 2000, at Midtown Massacre.

A few weeks later, Rhino would reclaim the title from Kash.

On October 1 at Anarchy Rulz, Kash pinned EZ Money in a singles match.

At November to Remember, Kash defeat C. W. Anderson.

2001

After Guilty as Charged, the promotion went defunct in 2001.

Two months later after ECW folded Kash was signed with World Championship Wrestling where he was billed as "Cash".

His only match was on the final episode of Thunder, airing on March 21, where he lost to Jason Jett.

That same week, WCW was purchased by the World Wrestling Federation.

2002

On August 14, 2002, Kash re-emerged in TNA Wrestling as part of the X Division.

2003

Using the gimmick of a cocky, obnoxious heel (while still maintaining a degree of his Kid Rock mannerisms), Kash won the TNA X Division Championship from Sonny Siaki on February 12, 2003 and lost the title to Amazing Red on April 30.

Some of the more notable feuds Kid Kash developed in TNA were against James Storm, Dusty Rhodes, Jeff Hardy, A.J. Styles, and even a few intergender matches with Trinity.

Also, Kash faced off against legends such as "Rowdy" Roddy Piper and Larry Zbyszko.

He even beat his trainer, Ricky Morton.
