Tremont made his Combat Zone Wrestling debut at Prelude to Violence defeating Pinkie Sanchez in a Tournament of Death X Qualifying Ultraviolent Rules on June 11, 2011. Tremont made his first Tournament of Death appearance at TOD X, defeating Necro Butcher in a "Water Jugs, Bats & Anything Else you Can Swing Match" in the quarterfinals. He was eliminated by MASADA in the semifinals in a "Kenzans, Whips & Anything Else we Can F***ing Find Match".

Tremont began to feud with CZW owner DJ Hyde throughout 2012, beginning at Tangled Web V as Hyde was the victor. He was subsequently fired at Down With The Sickness, after defeating Solo with a very stiff chair shot to the head, ending the bout at 35 seconds. Tremont got back on the microphone and repeated "Redemption" over and over again. At Night of Infamy, Hyde cut a promo on not reinstating Tremont. This prompted the locker room to walk out and quit if Tremont is not reinstated, but Hyde insisted if Tremont wins a match he could be reinstated. He would team up with New Jack the same night, defeating Joe Gacy and Ron Mathis. Tremont was successful at Cage of Death XIV, winning with a Death Valley driver off the top of the cage through three levels of panes of glass and a stage setup on the outside. After the match, the entire locker room congratulated Tremont for his efforts.

Tremont would turn heel at Cage of Death 18, by attacking his own teammate Joey Janela during the Cage of Death match, costing his team the match in the process. He later rechristened himself as "Father" Matthew Tremont and reformed his alliance with Stockade. They would go on to attack Janela and Penelope Ford.
On August 5, 2017, Tremont had a No Ropes Barbed Wire Exploding Baseball Bats match against Japanese deathmatch wrestler, Atsushi Onita. The match would end in a No Contest.
