Early years

Rob Cage began training under the guidance of General Trent Steel and Iceman towards the end of 2005. The WZW (Wrestle Zone Wrestling) training school closed its doors in 2007, a few months after Cage had made his debut for Carlisle-based promotion TTP. Cage then moved his wrestling training to Glasgow to British Championship Wrestling.

2007-2010

Cage had been wrestling for TTP for several months before making his Scottish debut for BCW at the annual Supershow No Blood No Sympathy 5 where he entered a Royal Rumble for the vacant BCW Heavyweight Championship, vacated from Drew Mcintyre. Cage continued to wrestle for the promotion, along with Premier British Wrestling where he established himself as a villainous wrestler both in singles and tag team action, where he and fellow Englishman Andy Wild aligned themselves with Charles Boddington as The Heritage.

Early 2009 saw Rob Cage continue competing for BCW as well as heading to Ireland, where The Heritage reformed for one night only under the NWA Ireland promotion. Throughout 2009 Cage began to wrestle for other promotions across Scotland and England. As well as these, Cage made his debut in Germany. He was also the first Englishman to wrestle in Poland for the Do or Die Wrestling promotion in Warsaw.

As well as making his first European appearances, 2009 was also the first time Cage appeared for Insane Championship Wrestling where he and Noam Dar attacked their former trainer, which led to Cage's first match for the company in 2010. Cage's ICW in ring debut was against Jack Jester in the first ever Insane DeathMatch. The match was loosely based on matches from the King of the Death Match Tournament in Japan, and saw both men in a bloody state, something neither man had seen in such capacity.

Cage's career in 2010 began with a strong start. He appeared at the annual Wrestling Legends Tour, where he faced Ulf Herman and Karsten Beck on both nights of the tour.

Cage continued his European appearances by joining the Irish Whip Wrestling Roster, where he has competed in both singles and Tag Team bouts, as well as the King of Cork Tournament. As well as working with IwW, Cage also wrestled several dates for LDN including a Capital Championship match against Alan Lee Travis, being beaten via pinfall.

Cage featured in the UKW Wrestlebration 2 event, held at Blackpool Tower. In November 2010, Rob Cage defeated Steve Douglas for the EPW Promotion in Bremen, Germany to become the first European Jr. Heavyweight Champion. The match was a 20-minute time limit and the two fought up to the 19th minute before a Go To Sleep/Shining Wizard combo was used to give Cage the win.

2011-present

Cage began 2011 wrestling on a regular basis for the London-based promotion LDN, as well as being featured on the Insane Championship Wrestling television show.

Competing in his second Legend Tour, Cage teamed with fellow Brit Logan Storm as Los Conquistadores, as well as being featured several times as himself.

September saw Cage appear for London-based PROGRESS Wrestling, taking on RJ Singh. In the same month, along with fellow Progress & ICW wrestler Jimmy Havoc, Cage went on to share best man duties for Mike & Rebecca Mason on the BBC 3 show "Don't tell the bride".

Cage has continued his work in Europe, competing for various German promotions, a return visit to Poland, a debut in Belgium and a third Legend tour, branching off to make a debut in Denmark.

Towards the end of 2012, Cage went on to appear again in Copenhagen, Denmark for DPW. he faced Anderson, the SWS Swedish Heavyweight Champion. The title did not change hands, after Anderson beat Cage with a modified facebuster.

In his last bout for 7 months, Cage picked up the vacant AWM Heavyweight Championship in Germany, beating Scotsman E.G. Mackie.

1 June 2013 saw Cage appear back in the ring, post injury recovery, in a return match against Multi-time WWE Tag Team Champion and D-X Member Billy Gunn in Aberdeen for Wrestlezone.

Cage also joined the opening round for the SWE European Championship Tournament. Cage went on to beat Ian Ambrose and win the trophy in the finals at Hell 4 Lycra X.(featuring Ted DiBiase).

In September 2013, Cage went on to win the Pro Wrestling Pride Tag Team Championships in Exeter, England, alongside Josh Knott. The same month saw Cage appear at the ICW "There's Something About Maryhill" event, 16 months after his last ICW appearance in Scotland. He had competed for ICW between that time when Vice Magazine launched their documentary - The British Wrestler - where Cage lost a bout to one of the stars of the documentary, Grado.
