DARKNESS IS SPREADIN'!: BLACK RAGE HAS ARRIVED!! Once upon a time, not all that long ago, a man burst upon the DPW scene. This man seemingly had no real identity, nor direction. This man before long, became known as "The Shaft" Bobby Ocean. During this time, another young man began appearing in DPW, and got in The Shaft's ear. This man is known as Guillaume de Sade. Together they have formed the controversial team known as "BLACK RAGE"! Throughout the last several months, The Shaft has been on a roller coaster ride in DPW. It seemed as if he was looking for guidance from veterans of Defiant Pro Wrestling. Such was thought the case as The Shaft appeared on the wildly popular "Flamingo Lounge" interview segment hosted by "Purty" Kurty Adonis.
As the segment progressed, Dr. Reginald Heresy interrupted and a brawl ensued. When it looked as if The Shaft would stand tall alongside Adonis, it became evident that it was all a smoke screen for Heresy to gain revenge against Kurt. The Shaft and the good Doctor would have certainly blinded the helpless Adonis if not for the sudden appearance of "The Promise" Antonio Thomas!
With Kurt on the shelf, the next month, Heresy battled Thomas in what should have been a great scientific encounter. It was because of the meddling of The Shaft that Heresy lost his match. Afterwards, it truly became evident what "The Shaft" Bobby Ocean's true intentions had been all along... It was TO SEND A MESSAGE and MAKE A STATEMENT to all of DPW, as he called for assistance in beating an already battered Heresy. This help came from his now revealed partner in crime, so to speak, Guillaume de Sade. It was this night that BLACK RAGE was born.
Throughout the next several months, the war, in one fashion or another waged on, finally culminating in Black Rage gaining the victory against the now team mates, Adonis & Heresy.
In this, a prototype of our forthcoming Superstar Series videos, you will see just exactly how Black Rage has rose to prominence in Defiant Pro Wrestling. You will witness The Shaft and DeSade spewing forth their hate filled mantra as they attempt to persuade everyone and anyone that they are being held down not only in Defiant Pro Wrestling, but life as well!

DPW CONTROVERSY - SEE THE VIDEO - DECIDE FOR YOURSELF!
Saturday night, February 10th 2007 was a tremendous day for Defiant Pro Wrestling. There were many great matches, and title changes that had their fans on their feet all night long. Titles were defended, and one even changed hands, nobody, however, was prepared for the events that unfolded after the Main Event between Luis Ortiz and Justin Credible.
As the match was gaining momentum, and headed back into the ring, Ortiz became injured and was unable to defend himself. This was also exacerbated by the sudden interference of Avil Graves.
When the smoke cleared and the dust settled, Justin Credible, with Impact Players partner Jason Knight in his corner, emerged victorious. Something however, wasn't right. The Impact Player's defacto manager and DPW owner, Mike Milano became visibly upset with the fact that a member of his roster was injured. This situation wound up extremely heated and tense as Credible and Milano began arguing in the center of the ring. Not even Jason, who is friends with both me, could calm the volatile situation down. As emotions were running high, it appeared as if both Knight and Credible walked out on their friend, or did Milano forsake their friendship for the sake of business?
Watch the video and judge for yourself, and ask yourself just where do the lines truly blur.
