Just finished the 2020 year with TCW. Here are the main story points of the year:
After beating Sammy Bach at Total Mayhem, Jay Chord won the World Title in July from Aaron Andrews. He went on to form The Heritage, his faction of second-generation wrestlers with Greg and Matthew (acquired in November) Gauge.
After losing to Andrews at Total Mayhem, Wolf Hawkins pretty much disbanded the Syndicate right after that. He already kicked out Chris Flynn earlier in February, who went on to have a break-out 2020, including a 5-month TV Title reign after defeating Greg Gauge in May. Johnson and Chandler have been reduced to a jobber tag team, while Doc has reunited with One Man Army as The New Wave to beat The Behemoths for the titles in November. Wolf is now backed by Shooter Sean Deeley in his quest towards title contention.
Sammy Bach receive the ''Old man, last chance for the title'' push when he won the King of Kings tounament while breaking his forearm in the semi-finals, giving him a World Title shot at Malice in Wonderland 2021 (I changed the canon reward). Unfortunately, SWF signed him in December, with his last date being Psycho Circus. He challenged Chord for the title then in a Career VS Title match, which he lost.
Aaron Andrews hasn't done much after losing the title in July. As he tried to get back into title contention in the fall, he got caught up with ''The Anarchist'' Cameron Black (Aldous Blackfriar), who recruted a few young prospects (Booth, Yougman & Wolfsbaine) to form his anti-establishment group.
Other wrestlers who had a great 2020:
- Mighty Mo: The leader of the Fab Five (happy go-lucky group of him, T-Bone Bright, Tana, Fro Sure with agent Ross Henry), had a great program with Jay Chord in the fall for the title.
- T-Bone Bright: Member of the Fab Five, he was put over early on by TCW veterans Joshua Taylor and Freddy Huggins. Highly involved in Mo / Chord program.
- Matt Hocking: Had a lenghty feud with Freddy Huggins (since Laura Huggins was dating Matt outside the ring), turned him face and has been a great sidekick to Sammy Bach during his last few months.
- Roderick Remus: Current TV champion, after defeating Flynn in October. Very consistent performer.
2021 plans:
- Chord will defend the title against Chris Flynn and T-Bone Bright and go into Total Mayhem as the champion. I will look to sign either Cameron Vessey or Hollywood Bret Starr to add to the Heritage group. This new member will probably overtake the faction, eventually leading Chord to turn face at the end of 2021.
- Wolf will turn face, feud against Deeley and go on to challenge Chord at Total Mayhem. He will probably win the World title at that point.
- As the Black / Andrews program comes to a close in early 2021, Andrews should turn heel against Chris Flynn, who tried to help him in battle. This will lead to the co-main event of Total Mayhem.
- Total Mayhem match will feature The Fab Five against Black's group. As tensions rise between members of the Fab Five, a breakup between Mo and T-Bone is imminent.
- Probably looking at Matt Hocking as the next TV champion in a few months to replace Remus. As for the tag team titles, The New Wave will probably lose to the Gauge Twins, who should run the division for a while.
