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.
The first show garnered critical reception for its bias nature of elucidating a stereotypical period in backyard wrestling in the background of the show, as well as, showed a lack of enthusiasm. Baldwin had it that insufficient interest was garnered from the ads, though it however, attracted the backyard wrestling community. Baldwin countered with the next episode, adopting a backyard wrestling name becoming Rad Hazard and continuously augmenting the quality of the shows with special features while being a regular face for sharing backyard wrestling news and media.
In November 2008, as shows began to be posted late online on Wednesday instead of its due date on Sunday, concern grew for the state of the BWW. But it was around the same time he spoke of Vegas federations - Generation X Wrestling (GXW), Lost Souls Division (now Sin City Wrestling), Top Dawg Championship Wrestling (TDCW), and Loco Lucha Council (LLC) - in his area and a premiere for an alliance he formed 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 which lead to a Grudge match with Loco Lucha Council's El Darko, who he had pinned in the 6-Man Invitational and done so again. Hazard's other roles in BBW (the prime area) includes being the background commentator for events and a gimmicked nerdy-looking interviewer known as David Weisner. As of BBW 3: Unification, BBW became increasingly set out to grow a bigger alliance and gradually went territorial featuring many federations from different parts of the world.
Hazard would take time off for the next few shows in order to restart a queued Backyard Wrestling Weekly and assisted real-life girlfriend Ria Calaway for some time through training sessions to become a wrestler. At BBW 5: Centennial on March 1, 2009, Hazard returned with a smirky, arrogant demeanor claiming on camera it was all about him and he was "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 Backyard Wrestling newcomer Ria Calaway and her "Sin City Kitty 5 Minute Challenge" match, named as such for her promiscuous nickname. Hazard and Calaway would go on the wrestle 5 minutes to a draw. Hazard was left on the floor after a slap from Calaway.
Anti-Backyard Wrestling Personality
Due to a real-life split between his relationship with Ria Calaway, Hazard took his genuine heartfelt feelings in-storyline to a video on YouTube on June 26, 2009, stating how he dearly admired backyard wrestling when he involved in it for the benefits of making it and him meaningful, but is now out to eradicate it, holding it responsible for being a "greed", a "self-respect" to be the best, in which he placed before Calaway.
The results of this incident caused it to be taken as a shoot, whereas Calaway was harshly pinpointed for making Hazard emotionally vulnerable. At this time, CJ Lennon had offered to acquire BBW since it appeared Hazard would fold it down. Hazard soon created a video to clear up issues on his realistic promo he posted labelling it under kayfabe and renounced Backyard Wrestling Weekly bidding it between Cam and Lennon while agreeing to keep operating Battle Born Wrestling.
