The Bad Breed was the professional wrestling tag team of Axl Rotten with his storyline brother/real life protégé Ian Rotten. The team achieved their greatest fame in the Philadelphia wrestling promotion Extreme Championship Wrestling but has also competed in the Global Wrestling Federation and Independent Wrestling Association Mid-South.

History

The storyline brothers Axl and Ian Rotten first started to team as the Bad Breed in the Global Wrestling Federation in 1992. On January 29, 1993 Axl and Ian defeated the Texas Mustangs (Bobby Duncum, Jr. and John Hawk aka. JBL) to win the GWF Tag Team Championship. Their run with the GWF gold did not last long as they were defeated less than a month later by The Ebony Experience (Booker T and Stevie Ray) cite book | author=Royal Duncan & Gary Will | title=Wrestling Title Histories | publisher=Archeus Communications | year=4th Edition 2006 | id=ISBN 0-9698161-5-4 ] and left the promotion soon after.

In October that same year the Rotten ”Brothers” made their debut for a relatively new promotion in Philadelphia, PA then known as Eastern Championship Wrestling or ECW. In their debut they defeated the makeshift team of Chad Austin and Todd Shawn at "NWA Bloodfest: Part 1" on October 1, but lost to Badd Company (Pat Tanaka and Paul Diamond) less than 2 hours later [cite web| url = http://www.prowrestlinghistory.com/ecw/results/1993d.html#100193 | title = ECW Match Results (October – December 1993) | date = October 1 | year = 1993 | author = prowrestlinghistory.com ] . The next night they main evented the show in a loss to Public Enemy in a "Three Way Steel Cage Match" (third team was Badd Company) [cite web| url = http://www.prowrestlinghistory.com/ecw/results/1993d.html#100293 | title = ECW Match Results (October – December 1993) | date = October 2 | year = 1993 | author = prowrestlinghistory.com ] . A few weeks later Bad Breed unsuccessfully challenged for the ECW Tag Team Championship as they lost to champions Tony Stetson and Johnny Hotbody [cite web| url = http://www.prowrestlinghistory.com/ecw/results/1993d.html#101693 | title = ECW Match Results (October – December 1993) | date = October 16 1993 | author = prowrestlinghistory.com ] . Bad Breed gained a measure of revenge by defeating Stetson and Hotbody on November 12 in a non-title match [cite web| url = http://www.prowrestlinghistory.com/ecw/results/1993d.html#111293 | title = ECW Match Results (October – December 1993) | date = November 12 1993 | author = prowrestlinghistory.com ] .

In June of 1994 Bad Breed started a violent, bloody feud with Public Enemy over the ECW Tag Team Title [cite web| url = http://www.prowrestlinghistory.com/ecw/results/1994b.html#061794 | title = ECW Match Results (April – June 1994) | date = June 17 1994 | author = prowrestlinghistory.com | quote = ECW Tag Champs The Public Enemy NC Ian & Axl Rotten] but through out the feud Bad Breed was never able to defeat Public Enemy for the gold. After feuding with Public Enemy the Rottens next targeted The Pitbulls, this feud led to the two teams facing off at "November to Remember '94" in a match where the Losing team was forced to split up. Bad Breed lost when Pittbull #2 pinned Ian [cite web| url = http://www.prowrestlinghistory.com/ecw/results/1994d.html#110594 | title = ECW Match Results (October – December 1994) | date = November 5| year = 1994 | author = prowrestlinghistory.com | quote = The Pitbulls beat Ian & Axl Rotten (3:11) when Pitbull #1 pinned Ian.] . Since the brothers both blamed each other for the loss, they began a feud against one another after teaming together for 2 years. The first match between the two “brothers” was at “Double Tables” on February 4, 1995 which Ian won [cite web| url = http://www.prowrestlinghistory.com/ecw/results/1995a.html#020495 | title = ECW Match Results (January – March 1995) | date = February 4 | year = 1995 | author = prowrestlinghistory.com | quote = Ian Rotten pinned Axl Rotten (6:41)] . They next clashed in a “Hair Vs Hair” match on the April 8th show "Three Way Dance" [cite web| url = http://www.prowrestlinghistory.com/ecw/results/1995b.html#040895 | title = ECW Match Results (April – June 1995) | date = April 8 | year = 1995 | author = prowrestlinghistory.com | quote = Axl Rotten pinned Ian Rotten (9:50) in a "hair vs. hair" match.] . After being shaved bald Ian came looking for revenge at "Hostile City Showdown" only a week later, this time in a “Barbedwire Baseball Bat” match, but once again Axl beat his “brother” [cite web| url = http://www.prowrestlinghistory.com/ecw/results/1995b.html#041595 | title = ECW Match Results (April – June 1995) | date = April 15 1995 | author = prowrestlinghistory.com | quote = Ian Rotten pinned Axl Rotten (9:07) in a "barbed wire baseball bat" match] - Their final and most brutal match took place at Hardcore Heaven in a Taipei Death match that saw both men bleed profusely [cite web| url = http://www.prowrestlinghistory.com/ecw/results/1995c.html#070195 | title = ECW Match Results (July – September 1995) | date = July 1 | year = 1995 | author = prowrestlinghistory.com | quote = Ian Rotten pinned Axl Rotten (9:07) in a "barbed wire baseball bat" match] .

Axl and Ian Rotten would reunite in 2002 where the duo would win the IWA Mid-South Tag Team Championship on March 2, but Axl would not be around long enough to see the team lose the belts, which forced Necro Butcher to team with Ian as they lost the titles on April 5 cite web| url = http://www.wrestling-titles.com/us/ky/iwams/iwams-t.html | title = IWA Mid-South Tag Team Title History | author = wrestling-titles.com ] .

The Bad Breed reunited at "Hardcore Homecoming" on June 10, 2005, when they took on the reunion of The Gangstinators in an "ECW fight" (an un-sanctioned match where there are no rules, only a fight until there is one man or team standing) [cite web| url = http://www.prowrestlinghistory.com/ecw/results/2005.html#061005 | title = ECW Hardcore Homecoming Results | date = June 10 2005 | author = prowrestlinghistory.com ] . On the heels of their success at "Hardcore Homecoming", Bad Breed once again teamed up in IWA Mid-South to win the IWA Mid-South tag team title from Vito and Sal Thomaselli, but were forced to vacate the titles when Ian suffered a concussion and had to take time off. Winning the IWA Mid-South titles was the last time Bad Breed teamed together.
