History Wrestling / ColtCabana

* GutturalGrowler: Matt Classic tried his best anyway.

* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: Infamously lead an exodus out of the Wrestling/{{N|ational Wrestling Alliance}}WA with Adam Pearce in one of the few cases that did not have anything to do with someone finding national success.

* WartsAndAll: The basis of his feud with Adam Pearce. Pearce was a hero of his before Colt Cabana became a pro wrestler and as a wrestler, Cabana continued to admire Pearce's skill and work ethic. He had come to learn that Adam Pearce was also a real asshole though.

!!'''Tropes associated with Colt Cabana include:'''

* AllJewsAreCheapskates: Is able to live comfortably in his dream job of professional wrestling, partially, by his own admission, by being incredibly thrifty.

* BigGuyLittleGuy: Big guy to Punk's little guy. While Punk isn't what someone would call "little," he is considerably less bulky than Cabana.

* CombatCommentator: For ''Family Wrestling Entertainment''

* HeterosexualLifePartners: He used to be this with Wrestling/CMPunk. The two met at wrestling school and wrestled throughout the indies together. Notably, Punk wrestled his last match in ROH against Cabana -- echoing retirement matches where a close friend of the performer would wrestle their last match with them, like Wrestling/TrishStratus and Wrestling/{{Lita}} did at ''Unforgiven 2006''. Unfortunately, their friendship was permanently destroyed in the aftermath of the Chris Amann lawsuit thanks to a dispute over the legal fees, which led to them suing each other. It was settled out of court, but the damage was done and by all accounts the two refuse to speak of each other at all. Notably, when Punk signed to AEW about a year after Cabana did, the company made no effort to associate them together in any fashion despite the wealth of history they had to draw on.
* HowDidThatGetInThere He was wrestling in Ring Of Honor both as Matt Classic and as Colt Cabana and someone found the Classic mask in his bag.

* IAmSong: ''Boom Boom'' is more a ''he is'' song but otherwise fits.
* IHaveManyNames: Mostly wrestles as Colt Cabana and Matt Classic, but has also wrestled on WWE Heat and Velocity as Chris Guy (real name of trainer Ace Steel, who worked as Scott Colton on Raw), Scotty Goldman (on Smackdown) and as Officer Colt Cabana (for [[Wrestling/JuggaloChampionshipWrestling the Insane Clown Posse's JCW promotion]].)
* InformedJudaism: Colt is Jewish, but in all his interviews he's made himself out to be either non-practicing or extremely reformed about it.

* NameOfPower: Baby swing? Billy Goat's curse!

* OvershadowedByAwesome: His (ex-)best friend is CM Punk, who is one of the greatest and most iconic wrestlers ''of all time''. While Cabana has done well for himself and carved a solid niche in the industry (particularly in regards to his podcast), there is no question that he's been stuck in Punk's shadow for most of his career, even after Punk left wrestling and stayed away for seven years.

* RedOniBlueOni: RealLife example, The Blue Oni to Wrestling/CMPunk's Red Oni. Colt is typically more open to meeting fans in random places than Punk, though if you either catch him at a bad time or if you piss him off, he can be just as much of a JerkAss as Punk is, or worse.

* TheCavalry: For Wrestling/SamoaJoe in northern Championship wrestling when Wrestling/KevinSteen interrupted a match between Joe and Franky The Mobster and the two teamed up on him.

** He won the tournament to become The International Wrestling Cartel's new World Heavyweight Champion after CM Punk had to drop the belt. He's also won their second Super Indy Tournament, beating Matt Stryker in the finals.

* WartsAndAll: Adam Pearce was a hero of his before Colt Cabana became a pro wrestler and as a wrestler, Cabana continued to admire Pearce's skill and work ethic. He had come to learn that Adam Pearce was also a real asshole though.

* RedOniBlueOni: RealLife example, The Blue Oni to Wrestling/CMPunk's Red Oni. Colt is typically more open to meeting fans in random places than Punk, though if you either catch him at a bad time or if you piss him off, he can be just as much of a JerkAss as Punk is, or [[UpToEleven worse]].

* HeterosexualLifePartners: With Wrestling/CMPunk. The two met at wrestling school and wrestled throughout the indies together. Notably, Punk wrestled his last match in ROH against Cabana -- echoing retirement matches where a close friend of the performer would wrestle their last match with them, like Wrestling/TrishStratus and Wrestling/{{Lita}} did at ''Unforgiven 2006''.

* [[NWordPrivileges J-Word Privileges]]: In his promo before his match Wrestling/{{UltraMantis Black}} at ''CHIKARA Caught in the Spider's Den'', February 26, 2012, he said that he knew that Mantis was the most power-hungry man in CHIKARA but that his Jewish heritage makes him more power hungry.[[note]]For the record, Mantis won.[[/note]].

* AssKicksYou: One of his moves is the "Flying Asshole".
** {{Bowdlerize}}: When he wrestles for Wrestling/{{CHIKARA}}, it's called the "Flying Apple".

** (as Matt Classic): The Throwbacks with Wrestling/DasherHatfield, [[Wrestling/MarkAngelosetti "Mr. Touchdown" Mark Angelosetti]] and Wrestling/SugarDunkerton

* {{Acrofatic}}: Colt is not fat, but he is often described and is self-described "barrel-chested" and one of the bigger non-giant wrestlers in the indy's where most wrestlers are less than two hundred pounds, doesn't stop Colt from using an Asai Moonsault as a fairly regular move. On the other hand, a blinded Delirious was eventually able to tell Cabana and Todd Sinclair apart by the later being much fatter.

* CelebrityEndorsement: Gave/gives out free trials of Hulu Plus

** He hid under the table from the Carnage Crew at ''ROH Generation Next''

* FinishingMove: Double Underhook Canadian Backbreaker he calls Colt 45 and an Inverted Boston Crab he calls Chicago Crab. Matt Classic liked the Wrestling/{{Von Erich| Family}} Claw

** (as Matt Classic): The Throwbacks with Dasher Hatfield, [[Wrestling/MarkAngelosetti "Mr. Touchdown" Mark Angelosetti]] and Sugar Dunkerton

* ThreeMonthRule: He was perfectly willing to team up with Homicide against Brent Albright and Adam Pearce in ROH, despite the latter two merely being assholes while Homicide tried to kill Colt Cabana multiple times in ROH prior.

** (as Matt Classic): The Throwbacks with Dasher Hatfield, Mark Angelosetti and Sugar Dunkerton

Colt Cabana (real name Scott Colton) is a professional wrestler and comedian who is perhaps best known for his time in Wrestling/RingOfHonor. He has also had noteworthy runs in IWA Mid-South and Wrestling/{{CHIKARA}}, and he even had a brief run in Wrestling/{{WWE}} as Scotty Goldman after years in their then-developmental company, Ohio Valley Wrestling (with a few televised matches even before). He was also a part of ''Wrestling/WrestlingSocietyX'' as the masked Matt Classic, supposedly a wrestler from the 1950s who used old-school moves such as the airplane spin. In addition to all of this, he frequently wrestles all over the world.
