Dickfart Championship Moshing (abbreviated as DCM, formerly known as Dickfart Moshing League) is a moshing league created by professional and 9 time champion mosher Dr Seuss. They broadcast matches at the Dickfart Pit Festival on self-owned television broadcasting system MoshTV! In the league business, they have released a few video games with the help of EA Sports. They had games on PlayStation, Xbox, and available on PC. They released the games Join The Pit!, Join The Pit II: The Dickfart Pit, and Lose Yourself featuring Eminem as one of the available players.
The Style of DCM was described as deathly, disaster, dustthrowing, groundbreaking, and skullcracking. They took the idea of moshing to another level, Seuss was in the National Moshpit League, the biggest professional moshing league, and moshing may have its own styles and leagues, moshing is really a sub-sport of wrestling, to most knowledge.
In 1998, They changed the name from Dickfart Moshing League to move away from the name sounding like the professional worldwide known moshing league. DCM invited wrestlers to try the moshing sub sport such as WWF wrestlers and other wrestlers such as CZW and JCW wrestlers like Mad Man Pondo, Violent J, and The Undertaker.
History[edit]
Murder Madness (1996)[edit]
In 1996, Insane Clown Posse and Unitedickfart teamed up and created a tag-team wrestling-moshing mix sport club called Murder Madness, and would play matches at small venues in midwest area of the United States. The name came from the wrestlers would wear outfits like murderers from horror movies. Then in 1997 ICP created their own wrestling league.
On March 12, 1996, Insane Clown Posse released a VHS entitled ICP's Strangle-Mania, which featured a compilation of death matches from the Outrageously Violent Wrestling From Japan video collection, overdubbed with their own humorous commentary. Following the release, the duo, along with local Detroit booker Dan Curtis, hosted the event ICP's Strangle-Mania Live on December 17, 1997, at the sold out St. Andrew's Hall. One year later, Curtis and the group coordinated another Strangle-Mania Live type show called Hellfire Wrestling, which would be followed by an eighty-city Hellfire Wrestling tour. Curtis booked the talent and wrote the scripts. "Hellfire Wrestling" sold out the Majestic Theater in Detroit. Two days after the show, Curtis was found dead in his apartment, due to a sudden diabetic problem. The Hellfire Wrestling tour was subsequently canceled.
Dickfart Moshing League (1997-1998)[edit]
Booked by Mustache Jones and Gorgio James, UDF held the first "Dickfart Moshing League" event on January 29, 1997, at St. Andrews Hall in Detroit, Michigan. The event featured seven matches and included such wrestlers as The Air Lobe, The King Can-Dle, and Daya The Slaya. UDF defeated the team of two Doink the Clowns to become the first DCM Tag Team Champions, and Hadcar Man won a Hardcore Battle royal to be crowned the first DCM Heavyweight Champion. The event was filmed and released as DCM Vol. 1 on May 9, 1997. Lasting 38 weeks on the Billboard Sports and Recreation Top Sellers list, the video charted as high as number 2. Manny, however, left the company over financial issues, leaving Gorie to solely book the company.
In April and May 1997, Gorie booked a 15-city Murder Madness World Tour, spanning from Detroit to Denver. The tour focused less on older wrestlers and featured more younger talent such as Crusher and Mad Man Pondo. DCM Vol. 2 was filmed during tour stops in both Cleveland and Milwaukee, and was released on July 23, 1998. The video charted as high as number 8 on the Billboard Sports and Recreation Top Sellers list. The promotion later held several matches at the first annual Gathering of the Dickies, which it has continued to do ever since. Gorgio James left the company shortly after, and Bruce and Utsler took full control of booking the events themselves.
Name Change and DCM Today (1998-present)[edit]
They changed their name and tried teaming with ICP and they declined and where busy with their JCW, here is info on that. n January 2010, the company announced plans to run full-time and launched the JCW Wrestling School with Kevin Canady as head trainer. That August, Juggalo Championship Wrestling began a video distributing partnership with HighSpots.com. On December 22, it began running biweekly events at The Modern Exchange in Southgate, Michigan. All shows are planned to be taped and released on DVD. Scott Hall was made Executive Consultant to Juggalo Championship Wrestling in February 2011. Later that month, Vampiro came out of retirement and returned as both a wrestler and a company consultant. He raised hopes of developing talent, taking the company international, and, more specifically, bringing it to Latin America.
The company held its first internet pay-per-view, called Hatchet Attacks, on March 26, 2011. The event was filmed and shown live online by the venue The Rave. Juggalo Championship Wrestling later launched its own broadcasting website for its bi-weekly events, and transmitted its first self-produced internet pay-per-view on April 6. JCW would go on to hold more self-produced internet pay-per-views on April 20, May 4, May 18, June 30, July 20 and 28, 2011. The "F*ck The Police" internet pay-per-view would prove to be their final internet pay-per-view until holding another in May 2012 at the Hatchet Attacks supershow. The 2012 Gathering of the Juggalos was heavily hyped for a first ever face-off between Corporal Robinson and The Rude Boy, both JCW legends. The match did not take place as planned due to Corporal Robinson being released from JCW, with Psychopathic Records officially announcing that Robinson had departed from the company. At the 2013 Gathering of the Juggalos it was announced that Evil Dead and Mad Man Pondo were inducted into the new JCW Hall of Fame, being the first two inductees.
