XBW Wrestling
Season 3 (2005)
In 2005 on episode 20, season 3 Revolution, Josh Dreamer as Psycho X appeared in XBW Wrestling attacking Deathwarrent during his arrival to the event briefly chased off by retrospective owner, War. His gimmick was a long-haired high-flying avenger of Psycho, who was allegedly repeatedly admitted to the Psychiatric Ward. Psycho X even borrowed the "Psycho" in his name as well. At Breaking Limits, Venom was on a phone call backstage unveiled shortly at his appearance to be with Psycho X, who stumbled across newcomer Heavy D, leading to the consolidation of The Asylum.
After unsuccessfully competing in a XBW Hardcore Championship invitational at Breaking Limits, he openly challenged XBW Champion Ryan Stevens at the same event to a non-title match, ending up getting an upset victory with the assist of Deathwarrent, who was pursuing to dethrone Stevens of his title. Another pinfall over Stevens was achieved in a co-victory with War an episode later propelling his federation tenure forward.
Dreamer went on to defeat Asylum member, Venom for the XBW Hardcore Championship for an interim period on episode 24 Revolution shortly before it was regained moments later due to 24/7 ruling. He soon advanced to the semi-finals of the Kings of Carnage Tournament and lost to an advancing War, but compensated it later by winning a contender's match for the XBW Maryland Championship. A short association with Tommy Gunn came about while darting after Jesse James and the XBW Maryland Title. At Final Revolution, Psycho had returned from the Psychiatric Ward to "teach Psycho X how to take pain" in a match which Psycho X lost. In the same event, he however, won the XBW Maryland Title from Tommy Gunn with the biase officiating by XBW interim owner Jesse James. By the end of the season, Psycho X was voted "Rookie of the Year" in the XBW Year End Awards, and following a brief existence, Asylum fell to shambles after Venom left XBW leaving Psycho X and Heavy D to form team DNX.
Season 4 (2006-2007)
Psycho X soon teamed with Psycho before learning of his departure from XBW, who was exhausted with life in the "psyche wards", leaving Psycho X as his apprentice. As DNX had a chance in an XBW Tag Team Championship Tournament, XBW owner Deathwarrent kept Heavy D away from the arena due to his ongoing conflicts with Jesse James and Chris Phoenix, forcing Psycho X to direct accusation on a seemingly advantageous Deathwarrent and have to select a partner in War which led to no advance. During this period, Psycho X began feuding with Reaper, resulting in loss of his title at Total Chaos.
Psycho X later teamed with Heavy D for the first and last time in DNX, coming up short in a XBW Tag Team Championship contender's match against The Family, as eventually subsequent, Heavy D quitely left XBW. Psycho had shortly unceremoniously returned to strip Psycho X of the "Psycho" name for disgracing him, which left him known as only "X". They also settled the altercation in a one-on-one match on Revolution. The disownment came as a consequence in X adapting a new personality by trimming his hair and transitioning into a fierce combatant known as Josh Dreamer. Attempts at regaining the XBW Maryland Title went unavailing and also pursuits after the XBW Tag Team Championship with Jerico Drum suffered the same fate. Two reigns with the Hardcore Title, however, were gained during the time.
After years since Jackass Championship Wrestling fell into alleged "Chapter 11 bankruptcy", they reemerged to continue where they left off in season 2. Dreamer showed his allegiance in defending XBW alongside Chris Phoenix, Deathwarrent and Bob Hollywood. He also collected three more Hardcore Title runs. Dreamer proceeded to win the third annual Kings of Carnage Tournament rewarding him a shot at the XBW Championship held by The Reaper, who had defected to JCW. In endeavoring to keep the title to that side of the battle lines, Dreamer was repeatedly targeted without any assistance by personnel of XBW. Moreover, at Decadence, Dreamer captured the XBW Title in a Triple Threat match with Reaper and Deathwarrent voted "Match of the Year" by online fans in the XBW Year End Awards. Later, after a feud with Stevens, he lost the title at Valencrimes.
Season 5 (2008)
Instead of using his rematch clause against Stevens for a title match, Dreamer exchanged with Deathwarrent for an opportunity at an alternative title which was agreed upon since Deathwarrent was unpermitted to face Stevens in accordance to a deal between the two. Dreamer, War and Reaper all anticipated the announcement that XBW commishioner Shawn Hartless was resurrecting the XBW Internet Championship and competed at Total Chaos in a Triple Threat match won by Reaper.
Baltimore Elite Wrestling Alliance (2009-present)
In 2009, Dreamer premiered in Baltimore Elite Wrestling Alliance during its initial event Warfare on February 1, where he competed against his tag team partner from Maryland Underground Wrestling, H.I.V and lost. Dreamer quickly aimed for the BEWA Championship, but his pursuit was shortened with a loss to The Franchise in the semi-finals at Vicious Valentine 2009. He also failed at the same event to win a BEWA Title contender "Rose Among Thorns" 6-Man Tables match.
On the March 1 edition of Warfare, Dreamer introduced his new interview segment called Dreamstreet. Subsequently in the show, he lost a Reverse Triple Threat contender's match for BEWA Intercontinental Championship.
XBW Reunion Show (2009)
On March 29, 2009, Dreamer has been booked to participate in the final event of XBW Wrestling. It is not known as of yet who his opponent will be and will be revealed at the taped show.
