The Beginning

The though to open a new blog for the up and coming superstar known in the wrestling business as "Daring" Dick Daniels had just come up into my long and forgotten head. I wanted to create a website but i really cannot be bothered to go through all the uploading and finding free hosts etc. So i thought id take the easy option and create a nice and easy blog website/page.


Where it all began.

I started wrestling back on the 9th of July 2006. A long time friend (Andrew Heaven) told me about K-Star Wrestling on the college road and i thought to myself why not see what actual wrestling is like. Seeing that I've been a fan of wrestling since the age of 6 going on 7. So on Sunday 9th July 2006 we both decided to pay the £25 seminar which basically told you the basics of wrestling which is break fall (where you stop yourself from hurting when you fall) and then after that day was over, i went home and thought 'this is my future'. I was trained by Richard Withford aka Staxx (i think thats how his surname is spelt) and Carl Brooke aka Carl Mizzery (i think thats his surname =] ) and they are possibly the most greatest trainers ever.

So Andy and myself started to go every Sunday, costing £8 and it is well worth it. Comparing that price to the prices charged in America, its a bargain.

So a few months later (approx 2) it was September and i had my first grading. Gathering a total of 56 points (i think) i scored a low blue band grading which is pretty good considering ive only done it for 2 months. My grading partner was also a new trainer named John aka The Razor. Andy, John and myself all got lower blue gradings which is expected from the time that we've been there.

So the months went on and i started collecting together a few names that my wrestling name could of been. The name i mostly wanted to use was 'RedDevil' but as K Star used to have a 'DareDevil' i couldnt use it. So i changed it to 'RedDevil' Danny Dare, but then in a training session Staxx randomly came up with 'Daring' Dick Daniels and its stuck since. I didnt like the name to start with but it stuck with me and i like it now. My charactor is basically a cocky bastard that thinks hes the greatest and doesn't like people laughing at him. Its a brilliant charactor which is brilliant playing.

So in December i got my wrestling boots and knee pads and a lent top from Tyler Rayne and i had my very first match...
