The Featured [[backyard wrestler|Backyard Wrestler]] of the Month of June is '''[[PJ Matthews]]'''. As one of the renowned [[Portal:Backyard wrestling icons|Icons]] selected by [[Bywpedia]], Matthews is regarded for his top notch attire, and simple moves, which are nonetheless effective and befitting to his style. Last month he stole the show with [[Drake Cannon]] in a special [[NECW: Pro Access Wrestling]] exhibition and recently circled around making travels to perform impromptu matches with the likes of Ian Finnegan and Marcus Centofante. Matthews continues to etch his name into the history of backyard wrestling, and will without question be bound to top nomination in any Year End Awards he appears in.

As a result, Randa defeated Roberts to gain reigns of the championship.

With memory problems erupting at the cause of many concussions sustained, Focalin was forced to put a finality to his backyard tenure indefinitely.

He will proceed to undergo physical therapy and make a recovery and likely still attend backyard wrestling [[supershows]] as a spectator.

The Featured Backyard Federation of the Month of June is '''[[Battle Born Wrestling]]''' (BBW). Ever since BBW was iterated in December 2008, it has wasted no time in further assembling increasing amount of territories and backyard wrestling federations to its independent body of alliance, with many including from North America, Europe, and Australia as the backyard wrestling version of National Wrestling Alliance. On separate location and ocassionally on same ground, BBW continues to grow with the effort put forward by many involved and ultimately by BBW Founder, [[Rad Hazard]] showcasing more of the Midwest part of the sport.
