The New Age (ACW)

The New Age is a faction that began in 2002 while the original Lunatic Wrestling Extreme was still running. Their gimmick is a bunch of dark-brooding lunatics who are controlled and led by The Red Devil to seek ultimate power and to inflict pain on their opponents.

Formation (LWE 2002)
It all started when the main event on LWE: The Night of the Devil (named for The Red Devil), it was The Red Devil, the LWE Internet Champion facing off against 2 Rough Dolly, the LWE World Heavyweight Champion in a no disqualification title unification match. After a hard fought battle, 2RD was about to finish The Red Devil off with a Piledriver through a table. However, Marcus Idol and Vaine showed up in what seemed to be support for 2 Rough Dolly, but instead they came into the ring with chairs. They turned to The Red Devil to attack him, but they turned around and hit 2 Rough Dolly with the chairs! This allowed The Red Devil to score the pinfall and unify the Internet and World titles together, and be the first man (and only to this day) to do so. After the match, TRD explained it like this...."This is The New Age of wrestling! The New Age is going to take over LWE and it will be ruled!" This caused so much heat from the crowd, that a group of fans started trashing the ring with garbage and some fans even tried to jump the barricade.

Feud with The Extreme Alliance (late 2002 - 2003)
The next week in October, 2 Rough Dolly formed a group of wrestlers called The Extreme Alliance with Jet, K.I.D., Wacko, Martyn Buff, and Insanio. The New Age had a huge disadvantage in numbers with 3 against 6. Later that same night, The Extreme Alliance called The New Age out to a brawl. The New Age came out and brawled while at a disadvantage. The Extreme Alliance got the upper hand, but then the sick and savage Damager, Avenlo, and the charismatic Alexander Venus came out and fought alongside The New Age, joining them in the process. The New Age, using weapons and dirty tactics, layed out The Extreme Alliance. At LWE Monster Mash 2002, The Red Devil retained the LWE World Heavyweight and Internet Championship against Jet after Vaine interfered, and the rest of The New Age won all of their matches at the event. Avenlo defeated 2 Rough Dolly, Marcus Idol defeated Insanio in a Chair on a Pole Match, and Damager, Alexander Venus, and Vaine won a 6-Man Tag Team Match against Martyn Buff, K.I.D., and Wacko. On the next episode of LWE, 74 Boy and Afro Kid joined The Extreme Alliance, but then Leatherhead, Matt, Maverick, Tony Beastie, and Havoc joined the The New Age thus making it 8 to 11 with The New Age getting the upper hand in members. But then Recktion, Trik, Jason Madki, Silly Bo, and Big Paul joined The Extreme Alliance making it even 11 to 11. At Terrordome 2002, The Red Devil retained the LWE World and Internet titles again, but this time against the 6'8 387 pound Big Paul and The Extreme Alliance won the House of Weapons Battle Royal. In January 2003 at Cold Crushings, Jet won the LWE World Heavyweight Championship from The Red Devil and TRD would also lose the internet title to Big Paul in the same night. The Red Devil would blame his title losings on the rest of The New Age saying that they were disloyal. Leatherhead confronted The Red Devil and told him that they would step up and defend him. Jet had the option of choosing any person from The New Age he wanted to challenge him to a LWE World Heavyweight Championship match at Love and Blood 2003. In a shock, he chose Avenlo (most were expecting The Red Devil to be chosen and get a rematch). Avenlo later won the LWE World Heavyweight Championship from Jet after hitting the Unlocking finisher on Jet. This marked Avenlo's first reign as world champion.

Problems between Avenlo and The Red Devil and later a feud (2003)
Over the next few weeks, The Red Devil started barking orders at The New Age, especially at Avenlo. Avenlo got sick of how The Red Devil was pushing everybody around and was upset at how Avenlo wasn't treated fairly because he was world champion, and not The Red Devil. Avenlo turned into a face, despite still being associated with The New Age and was the only face that was a New Age member. On a February edition of LWE, Avenlo and The Red Devil won a tag team match against Jet and 2 Rough Dolly after Avenlo hit the Unlocking on Jet. After the match, every New Age member would come out and celebrate while The Red Devil and Avenlo were in the ring and the rest were at rinside cheering for Avenlo. Then, The Red Devil yelled "Get Avenlo!" as the entire New Age preceded to attack him. Finally, The Red Devil hit Avenlo with The Red Effect on a chair, thus kicking Avenlo out of The New Age. At The Asylum 2003, Avelo retained the LWE World Heavyweight Championship in a Fatal Four Way match to retain the LWE World title.
