<p>I posted about it in the "Who has your title" thread, but I figured I'd post it here, too.</p><p> </p><p> This is my first ever real play-through of TEW, of any sort. Just now getting in. I decided to start my own fed after I simmed through a year or so of being unemployed and nobody hiring me (I like to not immediately sign somewhere and build my own history in game, as it were). I started new and decided to start my own company day 1: STRIKE Pro Wrestling.</p><p> </p><p> I've hired almost all unemployed talent, which mainly includes 18-24 year olds. I then grabbed a couple of veterans and let them lead the way for the first few events. Barry Kingman was the first person I put the title on, and let him defend it a couple of times while I built up the rest of the roster. </p><p> </p><p> My vision was that Prime Time Jack Pryde and Charlie Corner would be the future of STRIKE, coming in at the same time, being young and growing together. I put Pryde in a stable with Zippy Deverell and Pepper Pelton and they honestly carry my shows through their entertainment/mic usage. I'm an Insignificant company, so seeing those 3 carry angles to a consistent 50+ is awesome.</p><p> </p><p> Well, as things would have it, Charlie Corner and Jack Pryde developed tension between the two of them, so that storyline stalled. So, what I've been doing is building up Dreadnought as this unstoppable force of a monster heel. I've been putting him in squash matches with local talent or bottom of the card guys (he's beaten Patton Reilly like 3 times now). With Corner not being as hot of a prospect as I had wanted, I decided to pivot and hold a 16 man tournament and let things develop. Dreadnought marched through it like a monster and won, and, for winning, got himself a title shot against Kingman. I was hesitant to put the title on Dreadnought this early, but Kingman went from normal to "flabby" and his performances have started to decline, so I went ahead and had Dreadnought go over him. </p><p> </p><p> My next plan is to have Kingman come back and challenge Dreadnought again for the title, because the ending of their match was a referee stoppage (due to Dreadnought being a monster and just tossing Kingman around). I'm going to keep the title on Dreadnought, but let the storyline play out. Kingman's contract expires in 3 months, so I'm not going to re-up it, so he's going to go out by putting over Dreadnought again.</p><p> </p><p> We're at the 6th month anniversary of the promotion and things are going decent? The last two months I've made profit. I feel like I'm sort of spinning my wheels, though. I'm trying to develop some tag-teams to build a solid tag-team division (right now I've signed The Hot Taggs, I've got Zippy and Pepper as a tag-team, and Patton Reilly and G Force are a tag-team with great chemistry together). I'm slowly upgrading my merchandise, and it's paying off. But there's no TV/broadcast deal in sight, so that's a bummer.</p><p> </p><p> I want to build Wild Red Stallion as my next big baby-face. He recently changed his body type to get even bigger, so he's a hoss now. I'm looking forward to having some hard-hitting, East Meets West-style matches with him at the helm. In the next year or so, I'm hoping that he can get over enough that he and Dreadnought have a slobberknocker that'll boost them both.</p>

<p>I created a new company on Hard in the C-VERSE based in Canada (named STRIKE Pro Wrestling). Currently I only have one title, but multiple names are competing in the upper-card for it.</p><p> </p><p> <strong>STRIKE Pro World Championship:</strong> Dreadnought (0 defenses, beat Barry Kingman for the title after a 16-man tournament to crown the number 1 contender).</p><p> </p><p> Currently the storylines are set-up as: Kingman just lost the title at STRIKE Presents: GLORY event, and is looking for a rematch due to the finish of the match (a referee stoppage). </p><p> </p><p> Dreadnought has been built up as a monster heel who has run roughshod over the entire roster up until this point, just absolutely dominating people with his size.</p><p> </p><p> Prime Time Jack Pryde is leading a stable known as "The Kings in the North" with Zippy Deverell and Pepper Pelton, and Prime Time is upset that the stable isn't getting as much respect as it should be. Each event they cut a promo mentioning how Prime Time should be THE GUY, while there should be a tag-team title for Zippy and Pepper to win. </p><p> </p><p> Charlie Corner was going to be a fixture of the same upper-card, and I was hoping I could build a bloodfeud between him and Jack Pryde, but there is tension between the two and that storyline just sort of fizzled out. </p><p> </p><p> Finally, there's Wild Red Stallion whom I have been trying to get into the spotlight as my hard-hitting, East Meets West style. I've been trying to build him up so that he can climb to the top of the card.</p>
