Backyard wrestling tenure
Bio summary
Billy made his ATTW debut as The Devil Child and was only the second wrestler to appear on the show, only behind Janson. This lead to his first feud with Janson. As the company gained more wrestlers the show started.
First Feud With Tyler Janson
The Devil Child and Tyler both began pursuing the World Championship, with Tyler ending up with the title. The Devil Child then challenged Tyler to a match at Warfare 1 for the title. The Devil Child kayfabe injured Janson and won the title..
Feud with Brandon
The Devil Child still held the World Championship. After Brandon Trader defeats The Devil Child, Billy doesn't give Brandon a title shot. Later that night Brandon defeats Terry and Kendall in a handicap match to earn a title shot at Damnation. The Devil Child wins at Damnation and keeps the title, and after that he beats Brandon in a rematch at Breaking Point in a 20 Minute Iron Man match.
Double Titlist, Unstoppable Gimmick and Feud with Marc
Marc Wyman was on a roll winning a Money In The Bank match against Allan. After the match against Brandon, The Devil Child and tag team partner Kendall Cosby defeat the tag team champions Matt and EFM for the titles. Billy then retains his World Title after Marc cashes in his MITB.
Return
After taking a brief hiatus, Billy returned at Chopping Block to defeat World Heavyweight Champion Kendall and win the title.
Injury
On October 29, 2010, Billy injured his calf in a non-wrestling incident. The injury will likely not keep him out for long.
Return,dropping of the Devil Child gimmick,and second fued with Tyler Janson
Billy made his return on November 12, 2010 with a new theme song and a new gimmick. He became a face to fued with heel Tyler over the World Title.
ATTW hiatus and Injury
In March 2011 it was announced that ATTW would be going on a brief hiatus. However this hiatus was extended due to an injury Billy suffered in a 4-wheeler accident. Billy made a full recovery in short time and ATTW was set to return in mid April but Tyler bruised his ribs and the hiatus was extended yet again. During Tyler's recovery his computer crashed and all the scripts were lost. ATTW's status is in question.
Behind Character
Billy is a 2 year veteran in Amateur Wrestling. Billy has not been pinned in his amateur wrestling career. Billy is in real life a fan of many wrestlers, but Stone Cold and Edge are his main influence. Randy Orton and Chris Jericho influence some. He is in real life friends with Tyler Janson, Marc Wyman, Brandon Trader, Matt Naegele, and Kendall Cosby. He was born on Halloween, so his Devil Child gimmick was thought of. He has recurring knee issues after an early 2009 surgery, and these issues have hurt him over his career.
