Editing Vince Easterwood (section)

==Early Journey Through DCWF==
===Humble Beginnings===
Vince first rezzed onto SL October 8, 2008, and immediately started to explore what was available. Very quickly, he found the [[Digital Championship Wrestling Federation (DCWF)|DCWF]] and Averlast. Even though he went to both quite frequently at first, he started feeling more comfortable with the atmosphere and friendliness of DCWF. Despite the little knowledge of the business, the shows fascinated him. Under a suggestion from future trainer [[Katheryn Blackadder |Katheryn Blackadder]] and guided by finding the applications early, Vince used his first month exploring the features of SL and what would potentially help him become more active. Shortly after the one-month wait, Vince applied and was accepted into DCWF, and his interest in Averlast quickly faded away.

===Unexpected Early Promotion===
During training, Kat not only helped Vince get used to how the system worked, but the two grew as friends throughout Vince's career as both a fan and a wrestler. He felt high hopes were placed on him to do good in DCWF. Determined to not let down Kat, GM [[Eric Stuart]], or the owner, Alpin Criss, he trained, practiced, and had his debut December 7, 2008. That evening, Vince was able to go pro if he wanted. What a shock! Pro the night of his debut?! Grateful, Vince accepted it.

===Pro Career===
Although initially uncertain about how his character would develop, that quickly was discovered, and Vince's character became the resident "Church Boy" of DCWF. There was also hope of Warzone returning, which helped Vince because he could not regularly make Showdowns. For Vince's show debut, at "Return of Warzone" on December 17, he faced off against then DCWF World Heavyweight Champ Waroop Bravin. Unexpectedly, though, he met Tenzan Karu backstage after a good showing. Tenzan was just about to cash in a stolen contract that day and take Waroop's title.

Throughout Warzone, Vince was in a minor rivalry with Waroop after his debut, facing him several more times over the next few months. As he developed his skill in the ring, Vince initially was lined up to participate in the "Chaos for the Contract" at WrestleFest, DCWF's one-year anniversary. A slight incident a week and a half before WrestleFest ultimately removed him from the final list of participants.

As a side note, on Ash Wednesday, Vince did not attend Warzone like he usually does. Instead, he was at mass at the time, and came back shortly after Warzone ended to show everyone the proof with the ashes on his forehead.

===An Unforgetable Experience===
After finding out BigEvil won the contract at WrestleFest, Vince was in for a ride. Remembering that Tenzan had won the title right after his own debut match, Vince saw something in Tenzan that did not feel right. Right before the following PPV, "Retaliation", Vince started working over Tenzan's soul, seeing a struggle inside and wanting to bring Tenzan into the light of Christ. The talk was intense and nerve-racking, and Vince nearly got chairshots from Tenzan a few times over this. It got to the point Tenzan proposed to Vince a match with him at "April Fools, Hardcore Rule" (AFHR), even putting the DCWF World Heavyweight Title on the line. Even though the title was not part of the plan, Vince accepted unafraid, and Tenzan declared it would be a "Pits of Hell" Inferno match, the only one of its kind to date at DCWF.

So ... down to the Pits of Hell for AFHR. It would have been scary for most, but Vince was not afraid. Although Vince tried to peacefully convert Tenzan throughout the past month up to and including the beginning of the match, Tenzan tried to use force to quiet him. Despite all of Tenzan's efforts, Vince was unwilling to fight, only acting at the last possible moment. This infuriated Tenzan, and ultimately ... Tenzan snapped, realizing the innocence Vince had and how he was acting. In a blink of an eye, Tenzan walked through the flames just outside the ring, giving Vince the win and the title.

However, the show was not over quite yet. Shock was wide-spread amongst the crowd. No one expected it! Then ... out of the blue, BigEvil Mandlekorn showed up, holding the contract he won only two months prior. With nowhere to run and noDQ in effect, Vince was quickly defeated and lost the title only minutes after winning it. To date, Vince is one of the shortest reigning champ at DCWF ... a record 5 minutes.
