TCL Origins

TCL Origins was the first PPV event in TCL history. Prior to this event, TCL had a weekly series of episodes called "Revolution". These episodes aren't officially recognized as single events, but instead, are collectively known as TCL Origins.

TCL Revolution: The Beginning
On May 15, 2010, the very first TCL event, TCL Revolution: The Beginning, took place. Only seven Titans were signed to the company at the time: AWSMan, buffalobillswin, dxfan555, moazzam23, hitmonshark, The_Sigh, and Icee_Freeze. The event saw all seven Titans introduce themselves through individual promos before they competed in a seven-man battle royal, which was ultimately won by dxfan555.



This event also saw the controversial debut of staple_gun, who issued an open challenge to any member of the roster. Staple belittled the company and all of its performers, which caused a lot of tension backstage, most notably with the winner of the battle royal, dxfan555. Before Staple could ever even compete in his first match, he was released from his contract. Melbourne released the following as an offical statement regarding the matter:

"TCL has come to terms on the release of staple_gun. In all honesty I couldn't give a **** about his future endeavors".

TCL Origins: First PPV Event
Over the next four weeks, a new event took place each and every week leading up to the first PPV event in TCL history, which of course, was titled TCL Origins. At the event, AWSMan defeated hitmonshark to become the first ever Blaze Champion, while buffalobillswin defeated dxfan555 to become the first TCL Champion. The historic PPV also saw the owner, melbourne_victory, take on moazzam23, who had been in a storyline rivalry against the authority. The event was a huge success and officially marked the beginning of the rise of TCL.



Shortly after the PPV, TCL Revolution episodes returned and the build to the next PPV event, TCL Cliffhanger, began. By the end of TCL Origins, the roster had reached seventeen Titans, which was nearly triple the amount of participants who originally signed up when TCL was first created. The tag team division was also beginning to grow around this time as well.
