Greatest Feuds
Daniel Dare has been involved in some of the most memorable feuds in the history of this community. Here are a few of the highlights:

The Saint - For over a DECADE, Daniel Dare and The Saint engaged in what many feel is the greatest feud in the history of this community. These two polar opposites had one thing in common - they knew how to push the envelope. Against each other, they broke every barrier possible and paved the way for a more exciting, adult-oriented approach to e-wrestling.

Joel Gutman - Dare's early days in the BWFE consisted of blood, pain, and more blood - thanks to Joel Gutman. Their streetfight bloodbaths will forever be remembered as groundbreaking classics, and their Piledriver match for Dare's World Heavyweight Championship closed the chapter on one of the most violent feuds in the history of this community.

Dread - Dare's insane hatred of Dread led to some of the most memorable moments in this community's history, including Dare's month-long campaign to mock Beachwood, Maryland - Dread's hometown. The final stop on this tour led Dare to a children's hospital. The rest is too sick to describe. Needless to say, blood ended up splattering on the walls of the hospital that day.

Cage - Dare pulled out all the stops by involving Cage's family, friends, and past. It was the ultimate battle of good vs. evil. The rivalry was so controversial that the RAGE roster was evenly divided between those who couldn't wait to see what would happen next and those who couldn't wait for it to end. Dare vs. Cage brought old-school heat back to the forefront, and not everyone could handle the fire.

TCE - Dare has stolen TCE's family. TCE has stolen Dare's family. Yet, outside of a meaningless tag team match where Dare (then the TCW World Heavyweight Champion) took a dive to TCE (then the RAGE World Heavyweight Champion) just so it would be on record that the RAGE World Champ beat the TCW World Champ, these two have never met in the ring. Now that TCE has been fired for attacking Dare in a tag team match (TCE roped Dare into a forced partnership), who knows what will happen next.

The Trinity (T3)
Dare's legendary stable is considered the greatest collection of elite wrestlers in the history of our sport, The Trinity - T3 for short - puts every other stable to shame.

A list of T3 alumni:


 * The Saint
 * CBN
 * Wolverine & Prodigy
 * George Grabowski (with Rich Boles)
 * Adam Weiss
 * Shane Kelley
 * Jason Hectic
 * Wyndex
 * Sam Long
 * Larry Lujack
 * Mike Maxx
 * Lance Carter

Misc. notes: Dare, clearly off-his-rocker, briefly considered the talentless Xanthus Tonaka for a spot in T3. However, Xanthus refused because he didn't want to turn heel. He said he enjoyed the cheers of the fans (folks, this is e-wrestling - the cheers and the fans AREN'T real). In a drug-induced moment of insanity, Sam Long briefly considered cheesehead George Gillis for a spot in the group, but Gillis was thankfully scared off after hearing a rumor that Dare didn't consider him worthy of being a member of the elite unit.

Other successful Dare-run stables include: Team Messiah (BWFE), Messiah's Gate (TCW), UbK (TCW), one incarnation of The Cold War (NPW), and the T3-BRI [Black Rightz Inc.] Super Stable (NPW and TCW), The Elite, The Enterprise, and Hell's Council.

Real-Life Heat
Throughout the years, the brutally honest Dare has rubbed several people the wrong way. Here are some of the highlights:

Robert Stock
 * What happens when you mix an American gentleman with a smelly lime? Heat, heat, heat! It became so nasty that Robert Stock actually Testicle Squeezed Daniel Dare on BWFE television. They also fought like cat and bloody dog during Dare's memorable reign as BWFE President.

Viper
 * Dare made disparaging remarks about Viper's family. Viper threatened to track Dare down and beat him up (Viper never made good on his threat though, 'cause he knew Dare would whoop him). Wink

"Big Dunka" Derek Monk
 * Dare absolutely loathed his time in the UWF because of what he felt was horrible booking and a complete lack of organization on Monk's part. In late '97, after a few miserable months in the U-Dubya-F, YOUR Friendly Hometown Messiah left that bush league without giving notice and made a surprise return to the BWFE at the Global Warfare PPV. From that point on, Dunka swore that Dare would be his mortal enemy until the end of time. BWFE Presidents Kelley and Stock never booked a match between Dare and Dunka's wrestler Mystic because they feared that the loser (obviously Mystic) would quit the federation. Ironically, Dunka would later surface in RAGE and manage Duke Meyers to the RAGE World Heavyweight Title.

Michael Weaver
 * Michael was unhappy with Dare's controversial antics as BWFE President and made threats refusing to work with the "Legend of Legends." This was obviously unacceptable because members had to go through Dare for the approval of BWFE storylines. The fed-up "Messiah" sent out a biting memo entitled "Another One Bites The Dust," where he fired Michael's live-in lover, The Booty Hunter, and Michael himself (Michael worked for the BWFE behind-the-scenes as the federation's interview coordinator). They patched things up and Weaver had a successful RAGE run, but it didn't last. "The Homosexual Pedophile" eventually threw one of his famous "baby mama drama" tantrums and bolted the fed behind Dare's back.

Rich Boles
 * The most memorable shoot feud of all-time. It's credited for leading to the BWFE's demise. In mid-'99, Dare mentioned a certain word in one of his interviews, and for some reason, Rich Boles thought that it was a hidden reference to his wife. That wasn't the case at all, but the power-mad crackpot cheesehead from the shitty state of Wisconsin - nicknamed "Dick Balls" by friends and enemies alike (actually, he has no friends) - fired Dare for the "indiscretion" anyway. When Dare eventually returned to the BWFE in late '2000, the Green Bay Fudgepacker passed around a petition to get his mortal enemy fired. Dick's childish behavior was obviously frowned upon by most of the federation, because all Dare wanted to do was come back in, contribute, and have a good time. Unfortunately, the spiteful cheddar-chomper tried to stop YOUR Friendly Hometown Messiah from revitalizing the BWFE.

Oz Jensen
 * This on-again, off-again rivalry is a thrilling throwback to the legendary Yank vs. Lime war between Dare and Robert Stock from the BWFE days. With these two, you never know at any given moment if they're friends or enemies. Sometimes they don't even know themselves. Smile Dare fired Oz in '02 for bitching incessantly, but in a strange twist-of-fate, they remained friends for a time despite the situation. Last year, while both men were going through personal problems and clearly weren't themselves, Oz snobbily declared that Dare wasn't worthy of his friendship. They patched things up a few months later and remain bloody chums to this day. Oz joined RAGE and did well for himself before taking a holiday (as the limeys call it) away from the action.

Dare Lexicon
Here are some insults and phrases made famous by Dare that are often copied by the likes of Michael Weaver, Joel Potter, and even Rob Spicer.


 * Lime: Shorthand for limey - a person from England.


 * Booty Brah: Someone who kisses booty to get pushes, favors, etc.


 * Booty Based Booking (BBB): When a president pushes his booty brahs over more deserving talent for questionable reasons.


 * 'Neck: Shorthand for redneck. A rube with a country accent. Likes grits, gravy, Nascar, rodeos, etc.


 * 'Dinnermasher (masher, mash, other variations):' William Regal's word for homosexuals as seen in Mick Foley's Have A Nice Day.


 * Rookie Newbie Bastard: A rookie who lacks certain polish, isn't up to mark when it comes to social etiquette, etc. This can be remedied over time in the right environment.


 * Other Dare trademarks that have been borrowed: using CAPS for IMPORTANT words, smirking during interviews
