World Championship Wrestling
In 1999 Reade went under the ring name 4x4 and debuted in World Championship Wrestling as a member of Master P's No Limit Soldiers along with BA, Chase Tatum, Konnan, Rey Mysterio, Jr. and Swoll.[2] They later feuded with The West Texas Rednecks due to the Rednecks hatred of rap music. After the soldiers broke up 4x4 changed his name to Cassius by joining a heel stable called Harlem Heat 2000 and acted as a bodyguard, the group, consisting of the leader Stevie Ray, Big T and manager J. Biggs, then began feuding with Booker T. although the feud didn't last long and Harlem Heat 2000 began to split up.[3][4] Reade's presence would draw attention of the audience simply due to his enormous physical size.
