Maxime "Max" Boyer (born June 2, 1984) is a Canadian professional wrestler, best known for his time in the Chikara and International Wrestling Syndicate (IWS) professional wrestling promotions. Boyer is a former Chikara Young Lions Cup Champion and a two–time IWS Canadian Champion and has also wrestled for promotions such as Combat Zone Wrestling (CZW), Inter Species Wrestling (ISW) and UWA Hardcore Wrestling. Boyer retired from professional wrestling in May 2008, but made his return two and a half years later in October 2010 and has remained active on the independent circuit ever since.
Boyer began training in professional wrestling in May 2002, when he entered Jacques Rougeau's wrestling school Lutte Internationale 2000 in Montreal, Quebec. He trained at the school for two years before suffering a career–threatening concussion that sidelined him for a year and a half. Boyer returned in 2005, when Kevin Steen got him a dark match with Montreal–based International Wrestling Syndicate (IWS).
In his first dark match for IWS on July 23, 2005, Boyer teamed with Dave Trips and Shayne Hawke in a six man tag team match, where they defeated Player Uno, Pornstar Juan and Twiggy. On August 20, Boyer wrestled another dark match, where he was defeated by Jimmy Stone.
