Nadav Rozenfeld ("New-York" Rozenfield) (born November 6, 1978) is an Israeli professional wrestler currently competing at the Israeli Pro Wrestling Association (IPWA).
[edit] Career
Rozenfield is one of the corner stones of the IPWA, being with the promotion from its start in 2001. He debuted on June 8, 2002 using a gothic gimmick of Molokai and defeated Big D. A year later, he adopted the persona of "New York" Rozenfeld or NYR, a cocky, arrogant heel.
He briefly left the country and went to Toronto, Canada, to train at the Squared Circle wrestling school under Rob Fuego.
Upon his return, on April 13, 2004 Rozenfield became the IPWA Heavweight champion by defeating Matt Lyder; he went on to drop the title later the same night to Gery Roif.
Rozenfeld turned face later the same year and became engaged in an on-and-off feud with Rom Unger and Doron Degani which lasted through 2005 and ended on January 10, 2006 at Wrestlenovella event where Rozenfeld defeated his rivals in a handicap match. Immediately after his win Rozenfield turned heel in a worked shoot bit where he confronted and assaulted a fan who had been criticizing NYR for a few months for his alleged lack of charisma.
Rozenfield then entered a vicious feud with Chris Korvinn which culminated on April 17, 2006 when Rozenfield defeated Korvinn in a "chair-on-the-pole" match.
After emerging from the war with Korvinn, Rozenfield aligned himself with his former rival and now manager Rom Unger and joined his "Team Microspots" stable where he formed a tag team with anoher Unger's protege, Gluteus.
