Backyard Wrestling Weekly is a webcast program on YouTube created by Rad Hazard in October 2008, initially centering around news and media in backyard wrestling on a weekly basis. The program was conceived to bring unity in backyard wrestling.

However, the show moved towards a sporadic schedule featuring different faces other than Hazard in a concept called Faces of Backyard Wrestling Initiative morely concentrating on coverage and thoughts of backyard wrestling events.

History

Origination

Rad Hazard, first going under real name Daniel Baldwin, a resident of Las Vegas, Nevada, had taken an interest in backyard wrestling actually having a prior history in participating in the practice. In September 2008, he began promoting his backyard wrestling community on YouTube video pages and channels and later released advertisements on Youtube promoting his new weekly backyard wrestling program Backyard Wrestling Weekly over two weeks leading to its premiere on October 19 and adhering to a sunday schedule.

The initial beliefs from Daniel Baldwin were full of skepticism for the show as he felt insufficient interest was garnered from the ads. Backyard Wrestling Weekly debuted as a 10 minute formatted program and was a success for Hazard, taking helm of the attention of the small backyard wrestling world. Shortly, then known as Daniel Baldwin, he altered his name to a backyard wrestling name Rad Hazard and introduced segments including "Top Rope News", "Backyard Wrestling Spotlight" and "Mark Out Moment" to his show sheding news and media on talented backyard wrestling federations.

Hazard subsequently commented on his status in the third edition thanking viewers and stating that, "at the very beginning, I didn't expect anyone to watch this show. Why would they watch some random guy from Las Vegas who has no matches on YouTube". With the promotional help of Georgia Wrestling Circuit (now Global Wrestling Circuit) (GWC) channel on YouTube, the program gained 1000 plus views a week in combination on both accounts. In November, the show shifted to a two-part program with a more cutting-edge opening sequence to the previous.

In November 2008, Rad Hazard discovered the existence of backyard wrestling federations in his Vegas area. His first Backyard Wrestling Weekly ad had explained that he would wrestle if there were any in his location. BWW started to become posted late on a Wednesday instead of it's usual Sunday time.

Soon, after announcing the formation of a Vegas backyard wrestling alliance, Battle Born Wrestling (BBW) debuted successfully and conflicted with the BWW program schedule that caused time constraints with Hazard (visible with late episodes), ending up with BWW eventually taking a back seat to an upstarting BBW.

Return of BWW and Sporadic Schedule

In February 2009, Rad Hazard addressed to the community that the Backyard Wrestling Weekly schedule was to be resumed beginning on March 1, and repremiered adopting a new 50 minute 5-part format in an office-like settings using the initial opening sequence. However, after the show shortly returned, Hazard realized how time consuming it was for the editorial process of the show between it and BBW.

Moreover, instead of renouncing the program, he presented the Faces of Backyard Wrestling Initiative, a concept designed to feature backyard wrestlers and/or personalities as new hosts during every show with the first host being Cassias Chaos. From then on, the show have been presented on an occasional basis featured on a 3-6 part format.
