History

Establishment of Radical Movement (2009)

In legitimate distress over the real separation with real-life girlfriend, Terra Calaway (then Ria Calaway) in June 2009, Rad Hazard expressed his unrelenting drive towards the agenda of taking down backyard wrestling for its culpability of the situation, which was pinned to him prioritizing it over his girlfriend. After what appeared to be a shoot monologue he submitted online that garnered attention, it was soon cleared up to be understood as a storyline.

Hazard sought retribution against a practice he reflects is a "greed", "curse" and "self-respect to be the best" that deprived him livelihood, favoring to avoid the same results for others by destructing it. The group officially stemmed at Hazard's offer to conpensate anyone from any federation with $5000 (earned by the sale of Backyard Wrestling Weekly to Lennon Productions) if they were to vacate their own or cause alternatives to vacate their championships, a utilized ploy in his way of convincing those to create chaos in their federation. Hazard later declared "my movement is small, but it's got the right people in it", signifying he had formed a resistance.

Progress of the Movement (2009)

Starting July, the Radical Movement took its course receiving approval and disapprovals from people of different federations on aligning with it. However, acquisitions were successful in Zaq Cass, Mike Creston, Primetime Tim Sanders, Grizzly Grief and eventually the fabric of the entire situation, Terra Calaway, who Hazard convinced to join as co-leader. In such case, the Movement stumbled across altercations with many outsiders that included members of Darkstar, CJ Lennon, Focalin, Insaniac, Shawn Selby, King BW, Chris Dickens, and the like. Hazard's confidence grew watching the expansion of his movement, so far that GBYWN World Heavyweight Champion and Darkstar member FX had to respond to claims Hazard made towards ability in defeating him in a match, prompting FX to say he would "kill" him. Following mutual words, and Hazard sporting an anti-FX shirt and re-imaging as a classy-clad gentlemen, the feud had entered into West Fest.

It was around this time that two men from Adrenaline Wrestling Foundation Chris Dickens and Primetime Tim Sanders would enter themselves into the battle for backyard wrestling. Tim Sanders joined up with the Radical Movement, and gained the rights over a whole promotion called EGW, and changed the name to the Radical Wrestling Alliance. Chris Dickens was against everything the Radical Movement stood for, and proclaimed himself the General of the backyard wrestling movement. It would later be revealed that Dickens and Sanders, along with Rad Hazard, were all on the same page, and in fact both Dickens and Sanders were now the Generals of the Radical Movement, and were planning on taking over backyard wrestling one promotion at a time.

At West Fest in August 2009, Hazard beated out decorated champions Nails and Rich Cross is a Triple Threat match to crown the inaugural BBW United States Heavyweight Champion. After signing wavers he would compete with FX to a 3-3 draw in a "Title for title" 15 Minute Ironman match (originally scheduled for 30 minutes) when the referee halted the match in concern for Hazard after having taken multiple drops on his neck. After the match, Calaway executed her betrayal on Hazard with an assault with her GBYWN World Women's Championship to align with the Darkstar faction. Given bragging rights with championship success he attributes to intelligence and his competitiveness on par with FX at the event, Hazard stirred the Movement momentum despite some hesitation for its "cause" to the next supershow being hosted in Indiana, ICW Midwest Extravaganza where he claimed Movement members already surfaced around. There, it became known that the newest members were Bonecrusher and Johnny Light and also the surprising addition of Focalin, who had first unceremoniously declined to join in.

The Radical Movement picked up another stroke of progress during a high profile match at the event between Focalin and The Pen Name, with intervention by Hazard causing the eventual results of Focalin being victorious. In a turn of events, however, Hazard physically eliminated Focalin from the group, drawing citations back to Focalin's first offer to join the Movement. Allowing personal issues to prevail and because Hazard aided a Darkstar member in Calaway earlier in the show to protect her from TPN, Bonecrusher and Johnny Light cancelled their loyalty with him and booted the leader out of the group, claiming the Radical Movement was now the "Dangerous Movement".

Shortly after Bonecrusher and Johnny Light took over the Radical Movement, Mike Creston proclaimed imself the Commander and Chief of the Movement. This statement got an immediate answer from the Generals Chris Dickens and Primetime Tim Sanders, as they stood their grounds against the new faces of the movement. They immediatly dropped their roles as the Generals of the Radical Movement, and stood behind Rad Hazard. It is yet unclear what the future holds for the two, but according to them, the backyard world will be rocked by it.
