History:
The Reverend Daddy Joe was a local figure in the New York independent wrestling during the late 90's and early 2000's. Coming from a very strict pure wrestling background (High School State Champion in New York and NCAA Champion in college), RDJ went unnoticed during the birth of the era of extreme. To help support himself, he moonlit as a gas station attendent. RDJ knew he had to do something, his pure technical backround, which he developed from his high school and college days, wasn't getting him noticed, and he was having trouble paying the bills. RDJ needed to reinvent himself...
November 2002, the night FHT launched on an episode of Monday Night Raw is a night known for Lbm winning the brand new FHT Hardcore Championship, but during that same night, the title would change hands twice, and the third person to hold that belt would be The Reverend Daddy Joe.
Joe competed for the FHT Hardcore title everywhere in a series of matches that range from bizarre to criminal. In a series of contests where stabbings, shootings or being thrown off of buildings were the norm, Joe strangely excelled. On becoming the champion for the 16th time, he declared himself the Newschool Harcore Legend, and then went off on a tangent that was the very first promo in FHT history.
Joe went on to compete in the Elimination Chamber for the then recently created FHT world championship, but lost to Satan. A magazine covering the match said that RDJ's best days were behind him and he should retire. RDJ took it to heart, declared he was retiring, but was interrupted by FHT hall of famer, Straightcurve. This led to an epic 2 out of 3 falls deathmatch, which was notable because it was the very first singles match held in a ring in FHT history. Defeating Straightcurve in the final fall with a shot from a pair of brass knucks, RDJ career was reborn that night.
Joe went on to reform the Hardcore Horsemen with Lbm. The Horsemen were a very short lived stable in the very early days of FHT. In fact, it was the very first stable in FHT. RDJ with Lbm reformed the Horsemen, and the group dominated FHT television for months, grabbing every belt excepot the world title, and even having their own television special. The group eventually disbanded after RDJ and The J-Man stole all of Lbm's money and left him beaten in the ring.
RDJ left FHT not long after that over a disagreement with the management. Joining up with the new promotion ELITE, he competed during the very early days of the company. He earned a shot against the undefeated champion at the time, but lost and left the company. From there he went on to Japan to learn the strong style made famous by Japanese promotions out there. Very surprised and pleased with the pay and treatment he received out there, Joe would always find himself back in Japan comepeting in a wide variety of matches.
RDJ would have other short stints in FHT/ELITE after that. Most noteably his return in 2008-2009 where he debuted his new/original technical submission and suplex heavy style. The run was short, but during it he had comepted against FHT Hall of Famer Trippy P and hospitalized him. Trippy was hardly ever heard from again after that match with RDJ, a point RDJ likes to mention whenever he can. Another brief run led him to feuding with Ash Strife over the Hardcore title, a series that saw the original "FHT Style" return, with impromteu matches and unprecedented brutality.
RDJ left the company again as it was circling the drain, reportedly over pay issues. He had since then returned to Japan to compete for a variety of promotions out there. In Japan RDJ has become a larger than life figure, revelling in what is preceived as American Decadence. RDJ was happy there, so much so that when FHT/ELITE reopened their doors, he refused to return. When a "Daddy Rumble" was announced for the Legacy World Championship, RDJ could not resist, having never been World Champion, and having been snubbed from the HoF, he found that the oppertunity to return to right wrongs was too great. Utilizing some legal muscle, he got himself entered in as a surprise #21 entry, but was eliminated by both Max Venom and Dark Angel.
Now RDJ is back in the company where he made his name originally. Older, angry about being passed over and forgotten and determined to capture the championship, there isn't any angle or trick that is beneath him to achieve his goals as being recognized as the primere talent in the history of the company.
