Eisen-verse

Uh, this is genius. haha.

If true, then hats off to Harwood is a professional & someone who sees the 'bigger picture' (taking the loss in which to potentially build a new babyface star). I was never much of a Jungle Boy fan, to be honest. That said, this match, and how it went about, won me over. I'm growing to really love the trio. I just wish Luchasaurus could have more of a 'mean streak', if you will. He's got a great look and could be a wonderful powerhouse character.

MARCH 2020

The first IPW Prediction Contest will run 5 events in 2020. Starting with Hardcore Havoc (the show we just completed) and ending with Invincibility (June, game-wise). To be eligible to win this contest, you will need to predict on 4 out of the 5 shows at a minimum (80%). WINNER'S REWARD PROGRESS THUS FAR (2 of 5 SHOWS COMPLETE)

Coming next... * Prediction Contest Leaderboard * South-West War Standings for March 2020 You never know, I suppose. All I can say is that there are a lot of legs still left on this one... Thank you, stillnotover! I toyed with the idea; however, it made more sense to create a sense of drama around the Dark Watch/Follower-style faction. As we've seen thus far, Deacon is not afraid to verbally and physically harm his followers when they don't "live up to his lofty expectations." Yet, in the case of Melvin Otto, they stumble on back & rejoin his flock of sorts. Will that continue with Remmy Skye? That remains to be seen. Great to have you on board, IngnitedFlame! I've always enjoyed your feedback, questions, and comments along the way. I simply could not keep up with the size and amount of events for SWF. The only way I could have made it work would to turn into a full on recap model and I didn't want to get to that yet. With that in mind, I had to venture away from a big project and take on something like IPW; where I could take weeks off at a time and still be inline with the 'show a month' philosophy of a tiny company.

I like this for Darby, too. If they do this right, they could really further his persona with great (dark) imagery.

<p>Graphics are stellar, as always!</p><p> </p><p> I really love the fit if Jake Roberts in ECW. He fits their mentality, just as Terry Funk did as well. I can see the brick-wall, dimly lit, promos by Roberts and it would have been awesome to see/hear. Not to mention, just think of the work Roberts and Raven could have done together (either on the same side or opposite). That would have been amazing.</p><p> </p><p> Same situation with Dr. Death. </p><p> </p><p> Great work, Tobin. Keep it up!</p>

While they are both eerily similar, there are aspects that make them subtly different. As time goes on, their personas will start to grow further; creating more distinction between the two.

Losing to Frantic Ali is not a death sentence for anyone in IPW. Ali is THE most decorated wrestler the company has. Losing 2 months in a row, with the last one being a pretty brutal beatdown into submission, has scarred him a little bit as it pertains to being seen as a near "top guy." As you said though, given Ali's presence, there are many within the IPW fanbase who probably have much more respect for him now. We'll see where that takes him.</div></div>

Darby and Cage are perfect counterparts in an in-ring story! Great main event!

How about Frankie-Boy Fernandes? I get a Sammy Guevara vibe from him!

Thank you for the heads up! I updated the slide and made the change! For those who didn't see it, IPW Hardcore Havoc was posted on the previous page of this thread!
