Backyard Pro Wrestling:A Tale Of 16 Backyarders


Recommended Posts

Have you ever experienced that one defining thing in life? That extraordinary thing that captures your heart and lives in your soul until the day you die. For 16 men Backyard Pro Wrestling is that thing. A 20 foot ring of canvas and steel is their love and life long dream. For them it feels like home. Once inside these ropes, a moment can last a lifetime. The reward for success can be great but the price of failure is most devastating. It is on this grand stage where dreams may become reality, where athletes forge legacies and mortals become legends. This is the story of those 16 and their time with Backyard Pro Wrestling. An era of the lives of very different people heading in different directions bonded by a common passion, and a long desired dream.

In this dynasty I had people fill out forms to create a backyarder of no popularity and little skill. They each are part of one of three home promotions but all are part of BPW, [COLOR="DarkOrange"]Backyard Pro Wrestling[/COLOR]. Here is a summary of each home promotion... [COLOR="blue"]XDW[/COLOR]-Known as Extreme Danger Wrestling it has the largest following but also is the most dangourous in it's hardcore style making it easy for a hardcore worker to get over. It is in need of new talent as it's best 5 all left to go try and make it big. It is unknown if they will come back to their true home. It is based in the Tri-State. Home to 4 backyarders. [COLOR="Red"]FSW[/COLOR]-Five Star Wrestling is the smallest of the three but may have the best potential. It focuses on the puro style that is running rampant on the Indy scene. It needs to fill it's roster with those who have MMA, Technical, or High Flying potentioal. Based in the Midwest. Home to 8 backyarders. [COLOR="SeaGreen"]YPW[/COLOR]-Youth Pro Wrestling is alot like ECWA some would say. Except that instead of wrestlers wrestling at the Boys and Girls Center it is the Boys and Girls wrestling at the Boys and Girls Center. In fact it is funded by the United Way to promote fack fighting to get violence out of the schools. It gives teens and those who joined before being 21 a chance to wrestle some stars who they deem good examples. They also will not remove anyone from the roster when they get to old. It runs a traditional family friendly style. YPW is based in Calafornia. Home to 4 backyarders. I will post month by month what happens in these promotions and to these workers even after leaving these promotions. This will be a fun ride.

[CENTER][B][U][CENTER][SIZE="5"]-Rosters-[/SIZE][/CENTER][/U][/B] [COLOR="Blue"][B][U][CENTER]XDW[/CENTER][/U][/B][/COLOR] [U]Upper Midcard[/U] [B]Dave Biggs[/B] Dave "A-Bomb" Biggs is a 24 year old, High Flying Hardcord Nut. He grew up on the mean streets of Tampa, Fl. Many of his moves come from watching bums fight over rotten cat fish from dinner under the Alafia River Bridge. He joined the AirForce and became a fighter pilot but was kicked out for almost droping an A-Bomb on Iraq.... (something he always wanted to do) Thats how he go his nickname. [B]'Madman' Morgan Williams[/B] A rather decent although not spectacular High Flyer from Melbourne, Australia. His matches have no flow to them and he has a tendency to just drift from spot to spot. Never the less, he is a solid addition to any roster as he can slot into the midcard or undercard easily. [U]Midcard[/U] [B]Haydez[/B] Haydez is known as being both extremely skillfull in high flying and hardcore skills, although he is not your perfect technician nor is he great on the mic but he can still entertain the crowd with his unique style of wrestling. [U]Lower Midcard[/U] [B]Cam Constable[/B] Think of Canadian wrestlers and the names that come to mind are The DeColt family, The Stone family, Joey Poison, Johnny Bloodstone. What do they all have in common? Two things. They are technical genius, and they did not influence 'Hardcore Show' Constable in the slightest. This young Candian can do a hammerlock if he has to, but he'd rather you smash a light-tube over his head. None the less, he has a surprising grasp of the fundamentals. [U][B][COLOR="Red"][CENTER]FSW[/CENTER][/COLOR][/B][/U] [U]Main Event[/U] [B]Clayton 'Pretty Boy' Adams[/B] Clayton "Pretty Boy" Adams has always been popular for his looks. And that includes for wrestling fans and promoters. He was born to wrestle and even won the state high school wrestling tournament in his junior year. [B]Maxx Hero[/B] Tony Guidotti grew up knowing he wanted to be a wrestler. He watched every show for every promotion and as he got older he saw it change to as he calls it 'Wrestle Crap'. He decided he would be the Hero to save it and to make it what it was in it's hay day dispite his low skill level. [B]Thaddeus Tuttle[/B] A young man who got into wrestling to get out of a broken home. He tends to be more interested in the show than the basics. [U]Upper Midcard[/U] [B]Matti Don Katti[/B] Matti Von Katti, has been a fan of wrestling for 20 years...his dream is to one day make it as a wrestler, especially in Japan where he dreams of competing with his idol Optimus for the Burning Hammer Junior title. Random fact he nearly won a bronze medal representing Great Britain at the 2001 European Trampolining Championships. [B]Mike F'n Mayham[/B] Mikey was always under estimated and he loved it that way, what better way to catch his opponent off guard when they weren't expecting vicious there battle was going to be. With his life long dream to be a major player in the wrestling world. Love him or hate him Mayhem out does everything he can to impress the fans each night. [B]'Unholy Icon' Alexander Fayt[/B] Not much is know about 'The Unholy Icon' Alexander Fayt except that he is a young Canadian with a passion to earn a world title. He began his career in FSW because of his puro ability and high stamina. [U]Midcard[/U] [B]Andy Edwards[/B] 'Death From Above' Andrew Edwards has always been a wrestling fan. He has always, despite the disclaimers, acted out moves using his trampoline back home, many call him weird but he's just having fun. One day, he noticed a backyard wrestling promotion looking for people, he thought he should give it a try. [B]James Casey[/B] One day he ran away. His journey has brought him far. Along the way, he's developed considerable in-ring skills, although the origin of those abilities is as clouded as the rest of his past. [B][U][CENTER][COLOR="Blue"]YPW[/COLOR][/CENTER][/U][/B] [U]Upper Midcard[/U] [B]Mike Snider[/B] Snider is a young kid who decided against going to college to pursue computer science and instead decided to enter the world of professional wrestling. However, since he has not had any real experience wrestling, all he is is a big ball of charisma. He's not a tiny guy, but he's not huge either. He should be a quick learner and start putting on better and better matches as time goes on. [B]Sammy Slamm[/B] Sammy Slamm was a backyarder who was involved in the infamous "Annihlation" backyard wrestling card that was raided by the police. In liu of jailtime, the judge sentenced him to proper training as a wrestler. Slamm actually took to the training and now is at least semi-trained, and has given up the backyard wrestling style completely, preferring to actually wrestle. [U]Midcard[/U] [B]Nick Clements[/B] Nick Clements is a 17 year old just breaking into the business. Deispite being based in the Midwest he passed up local FSW and hopped over to California and YPW. [U]Lower Midcard[/U] [B]Red Blitz[/B] As a son of German diplomats, Michael "Red Blitz" Krueger already has seen much of the world at his young age. Hiding his face under a red and yellow mask, Red Blitz cannot hide that his style is heavily influenced by puroresu. Using lots of strikes, he also likes DDTs and is notorious for working on his opponents arms and neck.

[/COLOR] [COLOR="Blue"][COLOR="Blue"][B]XDW News[/B][/COLOR]-Fumihiro Ota is the owner and has Grandmaster Phunk as booker. From what I know about Phunks booking, well, XDW has a rough road ahead... They first signed Mario Heroic and then Mainstream Hernandez. Later they take Fox Mask, Remmy Skye, and Brendon Idol. Toward the end of the month Des Davids joined them.[/COLOR] [COLOR="Red"][B][COLOR="Red"]FSW News[/COLOR][/B]-Kashmir Sighn is the owner and has Suzanne Brazzle as booker. They grab up Frankie Perez in an attemp to use him before he is stolen and misused in the big promotions. After there show Marc Speed was signed. They then released James Casey who had appeared in the show a week earlier. Soon after his tag partner Andy Edwards followed him out the door.[/COLOR] [COLOR="SeaGreen"][COLOR="SeaGreen"][B]YPW News[/B][/COLOR]-Larry Wood is the owner and has Lee Wright as booker. They sign Steve Flash and Rudy Vasquez to be main eventers.

Only two shows in January? Guess the AI scheduled their shows for January for Week 1 when the game already advanced to Week 2. :D Not happy to see Red Blitz lose, but still, this all-YPW match managed to outshine the all-XWD match. Hah! [QUOTE]I am a bit worried on how much was spent on this one though. That is alot of workers used.[/QUOTE] Well, it's a big roster, so you would have to expect it. Maybe BPW should have gotten a bigger bankroll from the start. Any chance that you release the workers' data?

[U][B][CENTER]Febuary 2007[/CENTER][/B][/U] [B]World News[/B]-MHW and JEF debut. This could be an oportunity for some of our talent...or two promotions who will dissapear in less than a year. TCW's PPV Malice in Wonderland's best match was interestlinly Wrestling Machine 1 vs. Wrestling Machine 2 with a B. 7 announcers entered the world on one day...and I have generation on low. [COLOR="Red"][B]FSW News[/B]-FSW have highered Rhino Umaga and Marc Speed. After their show FSW highered the RIPW champ Mikey James. He appeared to take up two spots as Mikey F'n Mayham and 'Unholy Icon' were released the next day. A week later Thaddeus Tuttle was cut from the roster. In week 3 Cameron Vessy and Air Attack Weasel got on board. Then randomly in an attempt 'to cut down roster size' Vessey and Umaga are released...THE NEXT DAY! This is horrible booking! In fact I have seen Phunk do a better job. Then 3 days later they grab up Snap Dragon and fire East Side Leroy the next day. A day later the C- superstar Marc Speed gets released. This is insane booking. Insanly bad![/COLOR] [COLOR="Blue"][B]XDW News[/B]-Somehow an E- match made CGC want to sign Cam Constable to a PPA. This is a huge acomplishment for the 17 year old making him youngest on their roster. We will follow him on his journies.[/COLOR] -------------------------------------------------------------------------- [COLOR="red"][CENTER][B][U]FSW Take No Prisoners[/U][/B] [I]Hunters Town Hall-Mid West-47 [B](+0)[/B][/I][/CENTER] -'Unholy Icon' Defeated Matti Don Catti [B]D-[/B] [I]A Tie for best match from last month. Infact this is Matti's second D-. I would say this is a big win for Fayt as he beat the tag champ.[/I] -Maxx Hero defeated Rhino Umaga [B]D+[/B] [I]A BIG win over one of the hottest indy prospects on the market. This could be a sign that he could be ready for Thad's #2 spot.[/I] -Frankie Perez defeated Thad Tuttle [B]D-[/B] [I]Besides getting a new nick name T-Tut (mainly 'cause it is quick to type) gets a win against FSW's biggest name star. Unfortunatly the rating wasn't higher, though still equal to last weeks match of the month.[/I] -Clay Adams defeated Marc Speed to retain the FSW North Star Heavyweight Title [B]C-[/B] [I]What an amazing match, even better than with Perez. Now thats suprising. Clay has really cemented his spot at number one.[/I] Show Rating-[B]D+[/B] [I]A great yet expensive show. This one will be hard to beat as show of the month I think.

The world does not like Casey as he has lost 3 matches and been released by FSW. Katti is on the slide with 3 losses in a row including this to be his second to Andy.[/I] -Mikey F'n Mayham defeated Maxx Hero [B]E+[/B] [I]I was suprised by the rating as these two have the highest proformance in all the backyard stars. I am still more suprised why Mayham was released...[/I] -Haydez defeats Thaddeus Tuttle to retain the BPW Backyard High Flyer [B]E-[/B] [I]I can't believe they want to keep the title on Haydez. I guess they see more in him than I do (Though in XDW he could shine well). I am even more suprised that Thad was released. I shack my head at Kashmir and Suzanne.[/I] -Alexander Fayt defeated Mike Snider [B]E-[/B] [I]Win for the man who lost his job. I still can't believe the losses. Kashmir has lost his mind.[/I] -Shooter Sean Deeley defeats Dave Biggs [I]E+[/I] [I]Good match putting 'A-Bomb' at 1-1.[/I] -Sammy Slamm defeats 'Madman' Morgan Williams [B]E-[/B] [I]Slamm is hot and undefeated. This one was lower than his other matches.[/I] -Bubba Lee West defeated Rick Sanders to retain the BPW Best of the Backyard Title [B]D+[/B] [I]I still really wouldn't count either of these guys as backyarders...[/I] Show Rating-[B]D-[/B] [I]A bit behind FSW's show but atleast they are not firing like crazy.
