Fun tournament; Janela felt like the only guy on the right side of the bracket with a chance and a win over RSP is a nice way to set that feud up... Umm, is Levi Everett's character Amish?! and if so... that's incredible.

Looking forward to it; took some time off myself and have been reinvigorated by it. Enjoy; we'll be here!

MARIA KANELLIS VS. MARTI BELLE KAMILLE VS. VIPRESS BATTLE ROYAL FOR A FUTURE SHOT AT THE NWA NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP SCORPIO SKY --- I thought about picking Watts here as he impressed me in person way more than I anticipated; but alas... lets go with Scorpio.

Da Pope is so charismatic and I brought him in with the intention of him just being the color commentary; but then I started thinking about Comoroto's need for a manager/controller (ala James Mitchell) and that got me thinking back to when TNA seemed to be hinting that The Pope was not necessarily a "good" figure. In this character I see a bit of the brief "Problem Solver" Sean O'Haire gimmick mixed with a guy "helping those who can't help themselves"... Let's see if I can get that across correctly! Sugar Dunkerton/Suge D/Pineapple Pete is so versatile and originally I wasn't sure if I was going to sign him or just use him for the pilots; but I went back and watched some of his stuff and listened to him and realized he fits... plus he can plays a comedy type gimmick well so when I need a comedy type match on occasion, he'll fit the bill. Always enjoy hearing anecdote's about people meeting/knowing guys from shows. You've always been a loyal reader of my various stories over the last few years; so it's great to see you and interact again! Thanks as always! Thank you, the second episode format just came up by mistake; I'm always trying various ways to share results and story and that came about; thought it came out well. I like to mix and match styles at times and I think the Wrestling Observer Newsletter review style makes that possible. Long story short, I signed The Skulk to just be their annoying selves based on some older Evolve shows I found online where they were accompanying AR Fox... well then he broke his neck before the first pilot episode even happened, so now we are pivoting... and The Entourage/Annoying Friends fit nZo's "Entertainment's Hottest Free Agent" gimmick so... BADA BOOM REALEST GUYS IN THE ROOM (wait... wrong gimmick). I could see casting someone in a Drama type role; but I might need to find a Turtle. Lets see if I keep these guys around. Really do appreciate the comments and commentary; glad you are enjoying and would follow if it were real! Definitely the goal is to make people want to see it happen. Appreciate it. Really wanted to tell these guys stories in the intros; I think the goal is that anyone can jump in and find out who the main characters are at any given time. I think the goal long-term is to have some "signed" guys and some guys fighting for spots; they may even make multiple appearances but until they get their "post" they aren't full-time. ---------------------------- Also wanted to give my deep appreciation for the DOTM nominations; writing is a fun creative outlet and I'm glad the vision of this specific story is being seen!

I will third the Holliday love. ... After all if we didn't his "Lawyer / Father" might take action. I actually watched part of the Acid Cup 2020 last night on Youtube to get a better look at some of these guys. Blake Christian intrigues me and I thought I'd like 1 Called Manders based on the background and story of he and George Kittle (Niners Tight End) being close friends; but honestly I was really disappointed in his look/style. I was thinking he was going to be more like Stan Hansen and was... well disappointed. RSP fits GCW perfectly. I still don't know Matthew Justice. Deppen and Warhorse would be a fun match; Warhorse is not for me but I'd down with Deppen (was actually planning on using him in a previous game but never really got there). I'm seeing the finals as RSP vs. Janela. Could be a good feud too; maybe long-term.

The lack of Bam Bam Bigelow in his hometown is very disappointing... I'm sure at least one fan with a skull tattoo left disappointed. Loved the show; Taz was such a beast in this time period.

I don't honestly remember iwrestling, I was probably afraid of viruses or ruining someones computer at that time. I remember being oddly afraid of certain websites (namely any with more than one pop-up ad...)... I digress, enjoy the story about copying Meltzer. They say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. Dr. Death vs. Terry Funk will make Barely Legal a fun one! The Sandman on the Simpsons, awesome.

Though I personally love both and try to find a way to use them in all cases. Currently, neither will play a part in this, but I think of some of the Comoroto character as taking on some of the qualities of both Raven and some of Mitchell's monsters (Abyss, Mortis) over time.</p>

"The Problem" Sefa Fatu Signing Announcement Vitals Height: 6'2" Weight: 235 Hometown: The Isle of Samoa but now fighting out of Las Vegas, Nevada Theme:

AWESOME; glad that comes through and is a bit of a throwback. I don't want every character to be fully larger than life but I definitely want some and he's one that might fit story-telling better than in ring (for now). The second pilot will give some more glimpses into who is "responsible" for him. Appreciate it! Cheers, always means a lot for anyone to support this! Appreciate it, I'm also not fully fluent with a lot of these guys, but I spend some time on YouTube just looking up a couple pieces here and there and fill out there backstory. I thought the "signing" graphics needed to stand alone and then thought "Hey, a little bio, maybe some vitals will give them a bit more life"

This is a fun one; very casually follow what GCW has done/are doing and I like your take on it. Smart to wrap in the IWTV stuff and partners. Acid Cup should be a blast especially with the insane Gage vs RSP first round, I'm going with a RSP vs. 1 Called Manders final... The left side of the bracket feels loaded compared to the right side. Also Rush will defend.
