BST (2009-2010)

Pauly made his debut for Blood Sweat & Tears in September of 2009, losing to long time rival Jack Havoc. Even though he lost, at the BST supershow "No Remorse" Pauly was chosen to replace Papa Josh, who was sick, in the main event against The Icon. Pauly ended up losing this match, and afterward was attacked by The Calling. The next week he defeated Joe Creed to earn a shot at the BST Heavyweight Championship at End of the Line. Over the next few weeks Pauly fought against Calling member Jack Havoc. A week before End of the Line Richards teamed with Joe Creed to take on The Calling. After the match The Icon announced that their title match would be a ladder match. At End of the Line Pauly Richards defeated The Icon to claim his first BST Heavyweight Championship. This celebration was short lived though, because during the match Pauly suffered a shoulder injury that forced him to give up the title. Pauly was out of action for a little while.

Pauly made his return to BST as the mystery opponent for Joe Creed in the first round of the destiny tournament. He ended up losing this match. The next night Pauly won a number one contender fatal four way match in a questionable decision over D-Blaze. The next week he faced D-Blaze for the title shot at Rise of the Fallen, which he ended up losing. Before the match he debuted his new tag team, The MTN DEW Extremists, with Matt Carlson. It was announced the following week that a four man tournament would take place in which the winner got a heavyweight title shot. In the first round Pauly defeated his rival The Icon to advance and face Jack Havoc, who beat Pauly's partner Matt Carlson, at Rise of the Fallen for a shot at the BST Heavyweight Championship.

At Rise of the Fallen Pauly defeated Jack Havoc in a hardcore match to become the number one contender for the BST Heavyweight Championship. Later during the main event The MTN DEW Extremists interfered in the match by attacking D-Blaze with stereo kicks followed by the KO Klutch. The next week Pauly faced David Sinn for the first time ever, with fellow Sinn City Society member Papa Josh as the special referee. Sinn defeated Pauly by giving him the Sinnagree onto a chair. At Revenge Pauly faced off against Joe Creed in a match for the BST Heavyweight Championship. The match ended with Creed hitting Richards with a superkick in mid-air. This ended up being the last match for Pauly Richards in BST.
