"Bad Boy" Ryan Campbell is a professional wrestler and MMA fighter, currently signed to the RAGE promotion in MMA. He is most known for his wrestling in DXX.
DXX - The Early Days
Ryan Campbell had been a fan of pro wrestling since he was a child and after gaining fame in MMA for his colourful interviews and hard hitting approach, the DXX wrestling promotion offered him a deal. Campbell, nicknamed "Bad Boy" in MMA due to his interest in women, alcohol and cigarettes not to mention his general attitude to opponents, accepted and began the training needed to become a wrestler. Ryan cut a promo on the red brand of Massacre, making his on-air debut in DXX just three months after signing the contract. The fans reaction to "Bad Boy" was good but it didn't take long before he was swapping insults with Randy Spade and Mike Kelly in heated promos. Massacre GM Chris Jericho placed Ryan against Nick Awesome, who was unbeaten at the time. Campbell had top quality stamina but his lack of wrestling ability was exposed in his debut match against Nick Awesome on Massacre which he lost via submission when Awesome locked in the Sharpshooter.
After this dissappointing loss, Ryan was sent to the newly formed DXX Rated brand to help him hone his skills before making the trip back to the big leagues. He understood that he needed to improve his game and that Rated was the best place to do it. "Bad Boy" faced and defeated Renato in his first Rated match by submission when he broke Renato's arm, putting him out of action indefinately. Next week, Ryan was put up against the odd couple of Beth Phoenix and Jamie Noble in a mixed tag match with his partner being Daisy Vacairu. Ryan and Daisy overcame Beth and Jamie with Daisy getting the win via roll-up after a "Bad Boy" distraction.
Around the same time period, Ryan Campbell engaged in a series of confrontations with The Jones Twins. He disliked the lack of respect they showed to the wrestlers of DXX Rated and challenged both Jones Twins to a handicap match. Ami Jones called for a singles match instead and it was made official by Sylvan Grenier. Leading up to the match, Ami Jones switched back and forth between declaring his respect for the "Bad Boy" and screaming abuse at him. Campbell managed to defeat Ami via DQ when the twins began to double team him to remain undefeated in DXX Rated. A week later, "Bad Boy" was randomly drawn with Randy Spade to take part in the DXX Rated Tag Team Titles Tournament. They beat Bryan Matthews and Robert Murdock with ease in the first round and then Rhino and Alex Idol in the second to extend Ryan's personal record on Rated to 5-0. Therefore Ryan and Randy would face Ryan Black and Trixx as well as The Jones Twins at Genocide in a Triple Theat for the DXX Rated Tag Team Titles.
Before the PPV, Ryan was scheduled to face Trixx in a singles match. The "Bad Boy" beat Trixx with a roll-up in a close match to remain undefeated going into the biggest match of his career so far. Randy and Ryan defeated The Jones Twins and Trixx & Ryan Black at "Genocide" to lift the DXX Rated Tag Team Titles. In the following weeks, Ryan Campbell and Randy Spade defeated The Jones Twins in a non-title match and then the number one contenders The Miz and John Morrison with Ryan getting the pinfall. But due to a lack of effort and preparation from Spade, who let Campbell down, The Evolutionary Revivalists dropped the belts to The Miz and John Morrison. After this loss, Ryan's first on Rated, he announced that he would be returning to MMA but may return one day. He then proceeded to ink a one match contract with RAGE. After he defeated Johnny Silverstein in his MMA comeback match, many expected a return to DXX but he put pen to paper on an extended three match contract to rule out any return to wrestling in the near future.
