Looking back on his time in WWE, it is hard to remember exactly what Trent Barreta did. Despite being around for years, he was never really given a chance. His run with Caylen Croft as The Dude Busters is the highlight and I doubt even those two men could argue that that is worth seeking out on the WWE Network.

It is outside of WWE where Barreta has found his moments, particularly while teaming with Rocky Romero as Roppongi Vice in New Japan. There they have become two-time IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Champions - the second reign of which is ongoing.

That's not been his only success, however. Under the name of 'Trent?' in America, he has teamed with Chuck Taylor as The Best Friends, becoming an incredibly popular tag team in Pro Wrestling Guerrilla. He's also occasionally popped up in TNA, although generally just to fill a hole in X Division tournaments. Despite that, Trent Barreta has finally found his place outside of WWE and is making moments that we will all remember.
