CZW The Blackout started as a stable in CZW with
Ruckus, Sabian,
Joker, and Robby Mireno. In 2004, they began a feud with
Chri$ Ca$h, which saw a number of
tag team matches. During this feud, Ruckus and Sabian won the
CZW World Tag Team Championship from the H8 Club. In June 2004, Joker left CZW and wrestling entirely to fight in the
war in Iraq. Eddie Kingston joined Blackout and continued the feud with Cash. The feud ended in a Cage of Death match at
Cage of Death VI on December 11, 2004 when Blackout lost the tag titles to Team Ca$h of Chri$ Ca$h, J.C. Bailey, Nate Webb, and Sexxxy Eddie. In February 2005, Ruckus defeated
Messiah for the
CZW World Heavyweight Championship. Later in 2005, Blackout started feuding with
The Kings of Wrestling and
Super Dragon. One main feud was between Eddie Kingston and
Chris Hero, during which Kingston went as far as saying he would attack Hero's girlfriend. Kingston and Hero met in a
Last Man Standing match at
Night of Infamy 4. Hero won the match with three consecutive low blows. Also that night, Ruckus defended his title against
Claudio Castagnoli. This same night, Joker returned and attacked
Zandig and the H8 Club. He had a short feud with them, and then rejoined Blackout. At
Cage of Death 7, Kingston and Sabian challenged the Kings of Wrestling for the tag titles, but did not win. Later that night, Super Dragon defeated Ruckus for the World title. During the match, Dragon reinjured Robbie Mireno (who was previously injured by Dragon) with a curb stomp on the ramp. Blackout would get some revenge on the next show by defeating the Kings of Wrestling and Super Dragon in a six-man tag team match. They would get further revenge on February 11, 2006 at CZW's 7th anniversary show when Eddie Kingston and Joker won the tag titles and Ruckus regained the World title. On August 12, 2006, at
Trapped, Eddie Kingston was kicked out of Blackout and his tag team title was given to Ruckus. Around this time, Sabian and Joker left Blackout and CZW. On September 9, 2006,
Ricky Reyes joined Blackout and helped Eddie Kingston win the World Championship. Kingston then rejoined Blackout. Also on this day, Blackout was stripped of the tag team titles due to Joker's departure from CZW when he and Sabian joined Pro Wrestling Unplugged (PWU). On October 14 at
Last Team Standing, two teams representing Blackout were entered in an 8-man tournament to crown new champions. However, Ricky Reyes couldn't be at the show, and Kingston refused to be in the tournament. Instead, Ruckus teamed with the debuting
Human Tornado and Kingston brought in the Dead Presidents. The Dead Presidents lost in the first round, and Ruckus and Tornado lost in the second round to the Kings of Wrestling. After the match, Ruckus and Robbie Mireno attacked Human Tornado. Then, Sabian returned and helped with the attack. Also on this show, the original Blackout of
Onyx and
Rainman made their CZW debuts and started a feud with The Blackout, claiming that The Blackout has been ruining their name. On November 11, 2006, Robbie Mireno and Sabian teamed to defeat Chris Hero and Claudio Castagnoli, bringing the Tag Team Championships back to the Blackout a fourth time. They held the titles for one month and lost them to
Onyx and Rainman at
Cage of Death 8. Eddie Kingston lost the world title on the same show to
Justice Pain. Sabian and
Ruckus would regain the Tag Titles from Onyx and Rainman at
New Year, New Opportunities on January 13. On April 21, 2007, Ruckus and Sabian captured the
Maryland Championship Wrestling Tag Team Championship, defeating champions Phat Blues Inc. (Kelly Bell and Buzz Stryker) and The Best of Both Worlds (Doyle Day and Buck Chyld). On July 14, 2007, at
CZW Best of the Best 7, Ruckus won the
CZW World Heavyweight Championship for a third time defeating Justice Pain with help from Robby Mireno, Chrissy Rivera and Sabian. This also marked the BLKOUT's reunion with
Joker who returned to CZW to take part in the Best of the Best Tournament, which he won. They congratulated him for his hard work and winning the tournament. At the October 11 CZW event entitled
Decision 08, Ruckus and Sabian won the
CZW World Tag Team Championship for a third time, before losing it back to 2 Girls, 1 Cup (the team of Beef Wellington and Greg Excellent). On the 11th Anniversary show, the Blackout lost a ladder match to Bruce Maxwell and TJ Cannon. When this happened, all the rights to the Blackout name (kayfabe) went to former manager Robby Mireno. On May 14, 2011, at CZW Proving Grounds, Robby Mireno,
Ruckus and Chrissy Rivera came out to the ring after a match between
Rich Swann and Alex Colon and offered both of them a spot in BLK OUT. Which they both accepted.
