Kurt Bale

**Kurt Bale** (real name Daniel Newman) is an Irish-American professional wrestler, who wrestles for GTS Wrestling In BFCW, he played Burt Kale, Burt Bale and Muscles Mysterio.

During his reign as the Hardcore Champion, he re-invoked the 24/7 rule on July 1, 2017 (The rule was suspended by Grim back in April).

Bale made his debut on May 26, 2017 in a winning effort against Doctor K. He also won the Patreon-exclusive match against Max Frost. He then later joined rwa cringe on May 29, 2017. Although not yet a member of the roster, he lost the New Dude Rumble, which was won by Big Chico. He left rwa and turned heel after betraying Grim for not letting join the roster. He was then challenged by Grim to a match in order to join the roster and won with the help of Jay 'The Cringe Key' Evans. Bale seemingly turned face after being attacked by then-Intercontinental Champion Joe Wolf. The two began a brief rivalry and somehow ended when Bale failed to capture the title from Wolf at Food in the Fridge.

Then, a few days later, Bale challenged Jay 'The Cringe Key' Evans for the YouTube Title, but was unsuccessful in wresting the belt from Evans' grasp.

He rejoined DF on July 1, 2017 and a day later won the GTS Hardcore Championship, in which he re-invoked the 24/7 rule.

He then began teaming with Hollywood Hooligan after being handpicked by Grim at Giant Sack of Heat to face Doom Crew for the GTS Tag Team Championship in a losing effort. The team was later disbanded after Hooligan won the Loser Chumpionship from Bale. They fought for the belt at Battleballs in which Bale won.

Bale later won the Hardcore title numerous times, trading victories with the likes of Hooligan, Kama Kozzy, Lance Scaper and JJ Adams.

On September 18, 2017, He was kidnapped by a Clown from the woods after losing the title to Hooligan. He was later freed, a day later, but was kidnapped again in Grim's pool.

At No Money, he returned and began dropping his Lucky Charms gimmick, in favor of a vampire persona and won the Intercontinental Championship from Ace Marxman. At BLT 2017, he successfully defended the title against Kirby and Howie Timberche in a Ladder match which was booked by Joe Wolf before losing it to Pete Corvus (who Bale started a rivalry with for the title at the time). His vampire gimmick was dropped entirely and returned to the Lucky Charms gimmick. At Christmas Chaos, he claimed the GTS Championship and became the 11th Grand Slam Championship and 12th Triple Crown Championship. He then regained the Hardcore Championship from Scaper.

It was around the summer of 2018 when Bale unveiled a new gimmick, "The Vaseline Dream", reminiscent of various showboat or pretty boy type gimmicks such as Rick Rude and Val Venis.

In late October 2018, Bale turned heel and left DF, angry that he has never received a shot at the YouTube Wrestling Figures Heavyweight Championship, and thus dropping the 'Lucky Charms' gimmick for good. He would go to various lengths to get a shot, such as attacking Grim at his house by impersonating a delivery guy, ruining Jimmy's birthday (ironically, Grim did the same thing 3 years prior when Jimmy was a heel), and making Grim wrestle Gabby Gilbert. On December 6th, 2018, Bale won the Youtube Wrestling Figures Heavyweight Championship from Grim, officially becoming a Grand Slam Champion.

In January 2019, angry at the prospect of returning to the yard, Bale once again left DF and GTS as a whole to start his own promotion, AWE Wrestling (not to be confused with AEW Wrestling). He lost the YouTube Wrestling Figures Heavyweight Championship to Hooligan after a brawl outside a pizza shop, but cashed in his solid steel briefcase to regain the title at the Regal Rumble. In March 2019 Bale lost his title to Joe Dice, but Dice had his feet on the ropes so the match restarted and Bale reclaimed his title. He is scheduled to face the Hollywood hooligan at Grimamania for the YouTube title. On April 8, 2019, Bale loses his title to the Hollywood Hooligan on the last match of Grimamania. In June of 2019 after losing to Grim in their final one on one match he and grim shared a hug. Turning Kurt Bale back to a face and rejoining DF. After Grim attacked Duhop with a steel chair Bale also turned heel until his departure of GTS when Mike Swanson defeated him at GTS SuckaSlam 2019 where a loser leaves GTS for good. He however returned twice to referee two YouTube Title matches. He returned again under a purple masked clown attacking Legendary members before being unmasked and rehired after defeating Soda Pop. After returning in 2021 Bale is currently a face, but may turn heel if joining the Anti-Grim Movement.

In May 2022, Bale did indeed turn heel by helping Vince Ceres attack Grim at Rova Farms, forming an dangerous alliance with Ceres in the process. Now with Ceres at his side, Bale appears even more dangerous than we ever thought.

At GTS Halloween Havoc 2022, Kurt Bale accepted Grim’s DF shirt and joined D- Generation Fat.

At GTS Redo Rumble 2023, Kurt Bale returned to GTS wrestling and joined Grim against Duhop.

At the end of Grimamania 2023, Kurt Bale cashed in his Fold In the Fridge Briefcase (which he won early at Grimamania) on Duhop to win the GTS Legendary YouTube Championship. Kurt Bale turned heel once again by hitting Grim with the GTS Legendary YouTube Championship and created a new DF called “DF: Bad Company.”
