Trent Beretta

Gregory "Greg" Marasciulo (born March 30, 1987), better known by the ring name Trent Beretta, is an American professional wrestler signed to All Elite Wrestling (AEW), where he is a member of the Best Friends stable.

He is also known for his time with WWE as Trent Barreta and New Japan Pro-Wrestling and Ring of Honor under the ring name Beretta.

As part of Roppongi Vice alongside Rocky Romero, Beretta is a former four-time IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Champion.

He is also known for his tenures with Pro Wrestling Guerilla and various independent promotions.

Marasciulo began his professional wrestling career at New York Wrestling Connection in 2004 before signing to World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE).

Marasciulo made his professional debut for New York Wrestling Connection on July 10, 2004, under the ring name Plazma in a losing effort to Dan Barry.

After wrestling primarily in singles and tag team matches, Plazma defeated Matt Maverick on January 28, 2006, to become the promotion's first ever Hi-Fi Champion, which was also the first championship of his career.

On February 25, Plazma retained the title against Maverick in his first title defense.

On March 18, Plazma lost the title to Mike Spinelli.

Plazma would defeat Spinelli in a rematch for the title on May 20.

After successfully retaining the title against the likes of Jamie Van Lemer, Spyder, Javi-Air, and Jerry Lynn throughout the next few months, Plazma lost the Hi-Fi Championship to Dickie Rodz on October 21.

After two unsuccessful attempts to regain the title in February and March 2007, respectively, Plazma teamed with Maverick to defeat The Angus Brothers (Danny and Billy) and Dan Dynasty and Jamie Van Lemer in a three-way match to win the Tag Team Championship.

The team would retain the title on several occasions before losing them to MEGA and Prince Nana on December 15.

That same night, Plazma defeated Quiet Storm to win the NYWC Heavyweight Championship, although the title was vacated shortly afterwards due to Marasciulo announcing his signing to World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE).

Between August 2007 and January 2008, Marasciulo had several tryout matches for WWE, using the ring name Greg Cardona.

He was signed to a WWE contract and began wrestling in Florida Championship Wrestling (FCW) under the ring name Greg Jackson.

His name was later changed to Trent Barreta, then tweaked to Trent Beretta.

He also competed under a mask as The Girl From Mexico in an attempt to become the first Queen of FCW, but was eliminated in the second round by Angela Fong.

Beretta would soon form a tag team with Caylen Croft called The Dude Busters.

He worked in WWE's developmental territory Florida Championship Wrestling before debuting on WWE's main roster in 2009 as Trent Barreta.

Together, they would defeat Tyler Reks on May 30, 2009, to win the FCW Florida Tag Team Championship after Reks' tag team partner, Johnny Curtis, failed to appear.

On July 23, Barreta and Croft lost the title to Justin Angel and Kris Logan.

The Dude Busters reclaimed the title when Croft and Curt Hawkins, their new ally, defeated the Rotundos (Bo and Duke) on November 19.

Barreta was officially recognized as a champion alongside Croft and Hawkins, and was allowed to defend the title alongside either Croft or Hawkins via the Freebird Rule.

On the December 1, 2009, episode of ECW on Syfy, Marasciulo, under the respelled name of Trent Barreta, and Caylen Croft debuted as villains, squashing a tag team.

On January 14, 2010, at an FCW television taping, the Dude Busters lost the Florida Tag Team Championship to The Fortunate Sons (Brett Dibiase and Joe Hennig).

The duo would then feud with Goldust and Yoshi Tatsu, which culminated in a loss to Goldust and Tatsu in a match to determine the number one contenders to the Unified WWE Tag Team Championship on the February 9, 2010, episode of ECW.

When the ECW brand ended in February 2010, its roster became free agents.

Barreta and Croft signed with SmackDown, making their debut for the brand on February 19 in a losing effort against Cryme Tyme.

Barreta and Croft would then feud with The Hart Dynasty, but could never manage a win against them.

In April, they began using their Dude Busters name again, which they had seemingly dropped since debuting in ECW.

The Dude Busters then turned into fan favorites when they entered into a feud with the Gatecrashers (Curt Hawkins and Vance Archer) in August.

The Dude Busters then earned their first tag team victory since joining the SmackDown roster when they defeated the Gatecrashers on the August 26 episode of Superstars.

On November 19, 2010, Caylen Croft was released from his contract, effectively ending The Dude Busters and turning Barreta into a singles competitor.

After becoming a singles competitor, Barreta would largely be involved in lower-card feuds.

During this period, a majority of his matches would be on Superstars, and when he appeared on SmackDown, he would almost always lose, only garnering a single win when appearing on SmackDown during his tenure in WWE.

Barreta would continue to feud with Hawkins, whose partner Archer had also been released together with Croft.

Marasciulo wrestled as one half of the Dude Busters with Caylen Croft before he began wrestling as a lower-card singles competitor and was released from his WWE contract in 2013.

After his release from WWE, Marasciulo started wrestling in promotions including Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (under his real name), Pro Wrestling Guerilla, and Ring of Honor.

On May 20, 2017, Marasciulo was inducted into the NYWC Hall of Fame as Trent Barreta and competed in an eight-man tag team match at Master of the Mat.
