Backyard wrestling tenure
Backyard Wrestling Weekly/World
- Main article: Backyard Wrestling Weekly and Backyard Wrestling World
Originally known as real name Daniel Baldwin, a Las Vegas resident, Baldwin had express fandom in backyard wrestling having some experience in it. In September 2008, he began promoting online his backyard wrestling community, Backyard Wrestling World and released advertisements on Youtube regarding his new weekly webcast program Backyard Wrestling Weekly (BWW) over two weeks leading to its premiere in October 2008.
Baldwin worried for the insufficient interest he felt the show gained from online advertisements as well as for his obscure identity to the backyard wrestling community. However, the first show attracted attention to a mixed reception, arguably due to his critical views and a partial misrepresentation of modern day backyard wrestling when he showcased wrestling clips on a background monitor of its reckless and denigrated form in retrospect. Baldwin countered with the next episode, adopting a backyard wrestling name becoming "Rad Hazard", introducing rather contemporary content with special feature segments, and began familiarizing himself as the regular face sharing backyard wrestling media.
In November 2008, as shows were broadcasted late online on Wednesday over due date on Sunday, concern grew for the state of the BWW. But with mention regarding nearby regional Vegas federations - Generation X Wrestling (GXW), Lost Souls Division, Top Dawg Championship Wrestling (TDCW), and Loco Lucha Council (LLC) - in his area, he integrated an alliance and showcased it on December 5 known as Battle Born Wrestling (BBW). This inevitably conflicted with the BWW schedule and gradually placed it on a back burner for an upcoming BBW, where Hazard had planned to be an independent wrestler.
Battle Born Wrestling (2008-present)
On the premiere of BBW at BBW 1: Battle Born on December 5, 2008, Hazard prevailed in a 6-Man Tag Team Open Invitational pinning Loco Lucha Council's El Darko, which lead to a Grudge match between the two that ended with the same result. Aside from wrestling, Hazard played other separate roles in BBW (the prime area) including being the voice-over commentator for events, and a dorky-looking interviewer known as David Weisner. Thereafter BBW 3: Unification, BBW became increasingly set out to expand his alliance and gradually went territorial featuring many federations from different parts of the world.
Hazard vacated time off producing the next few shows in order to restart a queued Backyard Wrestling Weekly. He also slightly aided former real-life girlfriend Ria Calaway in training to do some wrestling of her own. At BBW 5: Centennial on March 1, 2009, Hazard returned with a smirky and arrogant demeanor claiming it was all about him and he is "the future of backyard wrestling" before defeating LLC member, Notch-O-Libre, with the assist of Sin City Wrestling wrestler Mike Da Lite and the distraction of the referee, after which they announced their new tag team simply known as Better Than You.
At BBW 6: Continental on March 22, 2009, Hazard entered as the first challenger for debutant Ria Calaway and her "Sin City Kitty 5 Minute Challenge" match, named as such for her promiscuous nickname "Sin City Kitty". Hazard and Calaway would go on the wrestle 5 minutes to a draw till Hazard was left on the floor after a slap from Calaway.
War on Backyard Wrestling Storyline
Due to a real-life split between his relationship with Terra Calaway (Ria Calaway), Hazard took his genuine heartfelt feelings in-storyline to a video on YouTube on June 26, 2009, stating his objective to destroy backyard wrestling because of its "greed", "curse" and "self-respect to be the best", despite his admiration for it and benefit to his reputation that caused him to prioritize it over Calaway.
Received as a shoot monologue, many submitted their responses in its regards as Calaway was somewhat blamed on account for Hazard's emotional state getting mean messages on her Myspace account. This all brewed speculation that Hazard was renouncing his creations. After clearing the air in a non-kayfabe production to explain everything was a work, in a storyline video, it became known that BWW was sold to CJ Lennon and his independent Lennon Productions company as Hazard agreed to keep operating BBW.
