= Big and Tasty (Professional Wrestling) = Big and Tasty is an american professional wrestling tag team that formed in late 2005. The team is comprised of "Sweet" William Valentine and "Playboy" Mike Trusty. They have been managed by "Sunshine" Augusta Lee since February 2019. Primarily based in the Kentucky/Indiana territory they have called Supreme Wrestling their home organization since their formation, however they do wrestle in other areas from time to time. The duo is an "old-time" southern style tag team, using their knowledge of the rules and how to manipulate them their advantage and inciting the crowd to make for memorable matches.

Members
"Sweet" William Valentine and "Playboy" Mike Trusty have known each other since 1991. After a short conversation about pro wrestling, the two became lifelong friends. Upon a chance meeting with a promoter while attending a wrestling event in Madison Indiana, "SWV" signed up on the spot to begin his training.

"Sweet" William Valentine began his professional wrestling career in 2004 under the tutelage of Eric Draven. After training, he had a short, but successful singles career winning the Supreme Wrestling Mid-America Heavyweight title. During his first year, he also trained and teamed with the "Superbeast" Robert Royale. Known as "Sweet and Sour" the team was featured in Pro Wrestling Illustrated in 2005. SWV then entered a vicious feud with Biff Wellington III over the Mid-America title. This feud saw SWV and BW3 embroil in violent bloody matches over the next few months. After a short stint of being the handler of a wild man called the Tibetan Strangler, SWV decided he wanted to start tagging again and who better to start a team with than his old friend.

"Playboy" Mike Trusty started his wrestling career in 2005 being trained by Sweet William Valentine and Eric Draven. After starting off with a less-than-impressive record, he finally got his first professional victory over none other than SWV himself. PMT holds that match very near and dear to his heart as he knew he could make in in this sport if he could gain a victory over SWV. While SWV was handling the Tibetan Strangler, PMT took a short hiatus until he received the call from SWV.

Early career
The newly formed Big and Tasty began getting victory after victory once they started teaming. With SWV's ring general skills and PMT's size and enthusiasm, they made an unstoppable combination. At the time SWV was managed by "Styling" Stacy Starr, so she became Big and Tasty's first manager. Her bombastic style fit perfectly for the team and many victories were earned under her guidance. However, SSS left the territory over some personal issues leaving Big and Tasty without management.

Big success
While B and T don't need management, having a manager makes things so much easier. Over the next few months the tempers calmed between BW3 and SWV and Biff's wife wanted to be the teams new manager. This began the initial big boom era for Big and Tasty with "Queen Raven" as their manager. This era saw Big and Tasty win the Supreme Tag Team Titles several times and feud with the best teams in the area, like Above the Law, The Prime Time Otlaws, and the Fat and the Furious. Along with Biff Wellington the group was known as "The Queen's Court." After a few years with Queen Raven as their manager, Biff started to get jealous of his own wife for concentrating mainly on Big and Tasty's careers and suspicious things started to happen with the Queen. When finally confronted in public at a Supreme event, Biff attempted to strike the Queen only to be stopped by the Playboy. This began another feud between Biff and Big and Tasty. Soon there after the Queen got out of the sport of professional wrestling.

Another new manager
Looking for new management, Big and Tasty convinced Supreme referee Crystal Lake to quit refereeing and become their new manager. This began another hot period for Big and Tasty as they won the tag team titles multiple times with Lake as their manager. Crystal Lake had a different managerial style than the previous two managers as she was less vocal, but still willing to do what was needed to ensure victory.

One more...again
Crystal Lake left the sport after a few years and once again the team was in need. This time they strayed from their normal methods and selected a male manager in Darrin O'Neal. Darrin was relatively new in the sport, but had a proven track record. He lead the team to more tag team gold and was never without his trusty kendo stick!

Quiet period
Due to scheduling conflicts and other issues, Big and Tasty made infrequent appearances between 2015 and 2018. While still successful during this time, winning the National Wrestling Alliance Mid-American Tag Team Titles on two occasions, the team couldn't get any real momentum going because of their schedules and the lack of consistent tag teams in the area. The team thought a new manager might fix the issue so they fired Darrin O'neal and hired Mortimer Blankenship as their manager. After a few short weeks, it was clear that they had made a mistake as they just couldn't mesh with Morty's managerial style.

Resurgence
After about a three year period of infrequent matches and taking a chance on a couple managers that ultimately didn't work out, In January of 2019 the team wrestled a newly formed team comprised of new-to-the-sport Aaron Abbott and Ryan Roswell called the Young Guns. That match sort of "woke up" the guys and the wheels started turning. Now the team's schedules started working out and consistent opponents, new life was breathed on the team. The Young Guns kept coming back week after week making it their goal to beat Big and Tasty because they figured if they, a new, young team, could beat a veteran team like Big and Tasty, that it would propel them up the tag team ranks. This embroiled Big and Tasty in a five month feud with the Young Guns, who despite not having any success in beating Big and Tasty, kept coming back for more, They signed all of the open contacts that were constructed by Big and Tasty's brand new manager.

The age of Aquarius
During the previous few months, SWV and PMT had decided to return to what got them their greatest success in the teams history; a female manager. After months of taking applications, vetting and interviews the guys finally found exactly what they were looking for. Augusta Lee began her career at a major PR firm and worked there for 12 years. After making sound financial decisions, she could afford to retire at an early age. Over the next couple of years, she worked part time as a personal trainer because she just enjoyed it and it was something to do. This is where fate intervened. One day the Playboy was at the gym working out and after finishing a set of dead lifts, one of the trainers at the gym came over and explained that he may want to use the "Jefferson" lift when doing his reps. The two struck up a conversation and when the trainer asked what the Playboy did, he told her about professional wrestling. Obviously the trainer was Augusta Lee and she gave PMT her card and he left. Remembering his conversation with Ms. Lee, the Playboy told SWV about her and they both thought she would be a great candidate for their manager. She really didn't have any background in professional wrestling, but obviously if she retired at her age, she was a very smart person that made excellent decisions and she had a health and fitness background. After going through many applications, the guys only had one interview and it was with Augusta Lee. At the end of the interview the three stood up, shook hands, and Big and Tasty had their new manager!

Let the Sunshine in
On February 23, 2019 Big and Tasty were wrestling the Young Guns. As the tide was going the Young Guns way a woman from the audience came up to ringside. As Aaron Abbott was attempting a sunset flip on the Playboy the woman reached out and grabbed the Playboy's hands and held on to them. This gave PMT the chance to simply drop to his knees and make the cover. The referee, watching Abbott's shoulders as any good ref should do, counted to three and gave Big and Tasty the victory! Of course that woman was Augusta Lee. Her first order of business was to let the people know that only SWV and PMT were allowed to use her actual name and that everyone else should call her "Sunshine." With Sunshine as their new manager Big and Tasty went on a big winning streak as Sunshine quickly learned the ins and outs of professional wrestling and is willing to do whatever it takes to ensure a victory for the team. Sweet William Valentine and Playboy Mike Trusty were so pleased with Sunshine, that they made her officially a member of Big and Tasty; a designation that no other manager has ever had.

Trouble with Supreme Wrestling
On April 26, 2019 after a beautiful victory over the Young Guns, appointed "senior official" Alexander Smith approached Sunshine in the ring. He accused her of using illegal tactics and gave her an official reprimand. Sunshine, not being used to being talked to in this manner, let her emotions take over and slapped Smith right in the face! A stunned Alexander Smith told Big and Tasty to get her out of the building and he would review the indecent with Supreme Wrestling owner Jeremy Beavin. The following week, after another victory over the Young Guns, Alexander Smith popped up on the video screen in the arena. In his pre-taped message, he suspended Sunshine for an entire month! Sunshine was livid and it was all Big and Tasty could do to restrain her from doing more damage! Big and Tasty continued their bookings during that month, but it was clear that they missed having their manager at ringside.

Upon Sunshine's return, Big and Tasty were scheduled to wrestle Leon Elliot and Chuck McRoberts in a match in North Vernon Indiana. Sunshine took this opportunity to add a stipulation to the contract that if Big and Tasty were to win the match, they would get a title shot on July 6th against the now Supreme Tag Team Champions, the Young Guns. They did indeed win that match and couldn't wait for their title match. In what was perhaps a bit of foreshadowing, as soon as Big and Tasty won that match, the tornado sirens went off and for the next two hours, everyone was evacuated to storm shelters. Figurative stormy weather followed! On the night of their title match on of the Young Guns didn't show up, so Big and Tasty did not get their title match. They were then promised one the following week and the same result occurred! For the next two months they were denied their contractually obligated title match. While this upset everyone, it really got to Sweet William Valentine. On August 24th, 2019 Big and Tasty we booked to wrestle, and again, it was not a title match. After that match SWV snapped! He was beating up his fallen opponent while the Playboy and Sunshine let him vent his frustrations on his hapless victim. After pleading over the house mic, Jason Cohen, announcer and videographer, entered the ring to try and get SWV to stop his madness. Sweet William punched Jason Cohen and pulled out a plastic bag and put it over Cohen's head to try and smother him! Sunshine got Mike's attention and knowing this was too far, he tried to get SWV to stop. SWV shoved Mike down to the surprise of everyone! Sunshine then attempted to get SWV to stop by climbing on his back and trying to get him away from Cohen. In his blinding rage, she shoved Sunshine down hard on the mat! The Playboy immediately ran to Sunshine's aid and seeing this snapped SWV back to reality. Supreme owner Jeremy Beavin stepped in the ring and suspended Sweet William Valentine INDEFINITELY! While a suspension was expected, the indefinite part was not! After ducking correspondence with Sunshine for weeks, Beavin finally responded with a letter stating that it would be at his discretion when and if SWV would be reinstated! During this time, the Playboy and Sunshine fulfilled Big and Tasty's bookings and are in a legal battle with Supreme Wrestling over SWV's suspension.
