Beshada commented: "To say I'm excited is an understatement! Cliff, Stephanie (Fretwell, Cliff's partner in Compound) and I started discussing this possibility in the late spring, and we were quickly able to come to terms on a deal. Honestly, it was an easy decision for me -- Compound's designs are second to none; its ingenuity is second to none; and, its production capability, especially on the sublimation side, is second to none. In a word, a perfect fit for the social media platforms and partnerships that Flips has built over the last couple of years. On top of that, Compound, like Flips, is a wrestling company, first and foremost. So, this deal is a no brainer from my standpoint. And, with our combined resources, I have no doubt that our wrestling lifestyle brands will be a staple in this community for a long, long time."
Said Taylor: "I am so proud that Cliff, Stephanie and Don asked me to be one of the faces of this new company, and to take an increased role in creating and developing product for the wrestling community," said Taylor. "I like being affiliated with true wrestling people, and these guys are just that -- people who work hard and, outside of the office, exercise, train and compete hard. In a word, they live the lifestyle that wrestlers live and, beyond that, are all stand-up people who truly care about the sport of wrestling and its athletes -- from the youngest kid in the room to the biggest of superstars. Together, I know that we're going to create things that I will be proud to represent, and that will truly become a part of a wrestling lifestyle company that does not currently exist anywhere in the sport."
More to come in the following weeks, including special content from the Flips/Compound Beach Games, featuring Taylor, Tony Ramos, Kyle Dake, Jake Herbert, and others.
