[5] He and Douglas were defeated by Chris Hero and Marc Roudin at the 7th Anniversary show, and won the title back the following June, enjoying a short second reign, before dropping it to Doug Williams and Martin Stone.

[6] At True Colors, Andy won his first title opportunity for the World Heavyweight Championship, but was defeated by John Klinger, who he had been feuding with for much of the year.

[10] This reign lasted until May 2017, where they were defeated by The Young Lions (Lucky Kid and Tarkan Aslan),[11] and A4 would continue to feud with members of Rise for the next couple of months.

A4 would break up on night three of World Tag Team League, when Andy turned on Al-Ani after their loss to The Spirit Squad (Kenny and Mikey).

[12] At 16 Carat Gold, Andy defeated Starr in the tournament final, having largely cheated his way to get there in victories over Al-Ani, Matt Riddle and Timothy Thatcher.

[14] However, he would later suffer a shoulder injury, causing a proposed three-way match between, him, Dragunov and Bobby Gunns at World Tag Team League to be cancelled.

[15] Despite Andy's injury, the title was not vacated, and Dragunov was named interim champion, after defeating Gunns on night two of World Tag Team League.

A backstage quarrel led to director of sports Karsten Beck booking a four-way match for the title at the 19th Anniversary show, which was won by Skillet.

[24] While Andy did not qualify for 16 Carat Gold,[25] he found another way to get there through the tag division, as Jay-AA defeated Jordan Devlin and Scotty Davis at Dead End to win a title shot, and in the process, cementing their face turn.

[29] On 19 June, Jay-AA dropped the title back to Pretty Bastards (later aired on 3 July episode of Shotgun, in a heavily edited match, which only showed Andy being rolled up for the pin).

[40] At Back to the Roots, Andy successfully defended the Shotgun Championship against Dennis Dullnig,[41] but was unable to attend the 16 Carat Gold shows and had to vacate it.
