Brett Giehl (born March 4, 1986) is an American professional wrestler, currently signed to Ring of Honor as Dalton Castle. Giehl also wrestles for Chikara under the name Ashley Remington, a name assumed after he began in Chikara as Dalton Caroline Castle.
As a child, Giehl loved professional wrestler "Macho Man" Randy Savage, with other favorites including Curt Hennig, Davey Boy Smith, and Frank Gotch.
Giehl wrestled for more than 10 years from middle school to college, representing the Greece Athena High School Trojans in 2003, and winning a varsity wrestling tournament in the 171 pound weight class in 2004. He was an amateur and NCAA wrestler, winning a New York championship in Greco-Roman wrestling and competing three times on the NCAA All-State Team. He was also a member of Team USA, traveling internationally for the World Championships. In 2010, he attained a second championship at the Beach National, winning 1st place in the 215 lb division representing Livonia WC.
During 2009 in Next Era Wrestling (held in The Auditorium Center in Rochester, New York) after defeating Brett Mednik (April 18) and Brandon Thurston (June 20) he unsuccessfully challenged Josh Jordan (the Northeastern Champion) on July 18, but they would later team together. On August 2, 2009, he defeated Marc Krieger at a Empire State Wrestling (ESW) event, preceding an August 15 loss to Bobby Fish. Castle spent one year with ESW until he left the promotion. In May and June 2010, he had two title matches against Krieger for the Northeastern Championship, losing the first and winning the second by disqualification. In 2011, Castle returned to ESW, where he and his partner won the ESW Tag Team Championship by defeating The Rochester Wrecking Crew (Hellcat and Rob Sweet) at ESW WrestleBash. They held it 238 days until June 1, 2013 when it was dropped to The Flatliners (Asylum and Matt Burns) at ESW Aftershock. The team broke up afterward.
