Alexander Freitas (born January 23, 1990) is a Canadian professional wrestler best known under the ring name Alex Silva.
After being trained by his father, Freitas debuted in 2004 for Paul LeDuc's FLQ promotion. Initially, Freitas adopted the ring name Sean Simmons, but soon began wrestling under the name Alex Silva. He spent the next few years wrestling mainly in Quebec, but also ventured (at 16 years old) into the United States to wrestle in Hawaii, Atlanta, Wisconsin, and Chicago.
On March 15, 2009, Silva won the CRW Quebec Championship by defeating Twister. He lost the championship to Jeremy Prophet on July 26, 2009.
Throughout 2010 and 2011, Silva made appearances for Ring of Honor's Ring of Honor Wrestling television show, in losses to Michael Elgin, Roderick Strong, Tommaso Ciampa, and Mike Mondo.
On August 1, 2011, Silva was defeated by Brodus Clay in a dark match prior to World Wrestling Entertainment's Raw television show. The following night, he used the name Pat Silva in a second loss to Clay, which was taped for that week's episode of WWE Superstars.
Silva made his Ohio Valley Wrestling (OVW) debut on November 17, 2010. On December 11, Silva won the OVW Television Championship by defeating Mohamad Ali Vaez. His victory made him the youngest Television Champion in the promotion's history. He held the championship for 46 days before losing it back to Vaez on January 26, 2011. A weeks later, Silva left to return to Montreal.
