John Lions

Here's the ACPW belts. Next up is SWF, and I probably can do 2 more promotion events/belts tonight into tomorrow. Then, once I've had my fill of using the GPT to make this stuff, I'll clean up the banners and logos and get them in a downloadable ZIP file. Thanks for the suggestion (and confirmation) for using mediafire @WillyWillyWilly and @lavelleuk! ACPW: Active Belts: Unused Belts in Default Data: Pretty pleased with how these turned out, but I feel like I'm saying that a lot lately. This GPT is making things way easier to keep designs consistent through a single promotion.

Been getting caught up over the past week, I love this. Glad I could get caught up in time to make predictions. The new graphics look great! PGHW "NIGHT OF HONOUR" 2022 - PREDICTION KEY GLORY CROWN
 Kozue Kawashima (c) vs. Seiji Jimbo I think your 39 year old ace hits his first big stumbling block - can he ever beat Seiji Jimbo? This finds Kawashima extra momentum to win the Elite series next year to get another shot at Jimbo and beat him properly for the title GLORY TAG CROWN
 Hirotsugu Satou & Magnum Kobe (c) vs. Chojiro Kitoaji & Eisaku Kunomasu Kobe has been the bridesmaid for much of his time in PGHW, so while Yaduda's frankly selfish decision to walk out sucked, I'm glad it gave you the chance to belt him up. I think the bad guys win this one HISTORICAL JAPAN TAG TEAM TITLES BISON Yano & Brute Kikuchi (c) vs. Haranobu Kobayashi & Joshua Taylor Kobayashi has been the next big star for five+ years now. I don't rate him highly and I would be disappointed to see him win gold when you have so many other guys riding to take the brass ring Kobayashi could never quite get his hands on GOLDEN CHASE CONTINUES Hirokazu Yamanoue & Masaru Ugaki vs. KITA & SATO I think Ugaki has a pretty good shot of dethroning SATO, but as a team Hirozaku is the clean weak link and pin eater EIGHT-MAN TAG TEAM MATCH
 The Front (Goro Sakamoto, Kazushige Matsuki, Michio Gensai & Yasunobu Masuno) vs. RONIN VII (Akinori Kwakami, Avalanche Takano, Noriyori Sanda & Yuri Yoshihara) Coinflip, but I am hedging on The Front heading to some rough waters as Mutant challenges Masuno for the leadership role TAG TEAM MATCH
 Andrew Harper & Troy vs. The Lions of Japan (Shinji Mihara & Shozo Furuta) Could go either way, but I think the Lions are in line for a push and Harper fits more as a challenger for Troy than a partner TAG TEAM MATCH 
AKIMA & Joey Fili vs. The American Cobras (Marvel Molloy & Storm Spillane) Joey is still a pin eater at this point in his career SINGLES MATCH Bussho Makiguchi vs. Chomei Sugiyama I think a singles feud with his former partner is on the horizon HOSS MATCH Hirobumi Takimoto vs. Mutant The rise of Mutant has been great to see - he is a very different kind of character, but I feel like he can be the 2020s Dread or James Diaz once he gets out from Masuno's shadow

Thanks everyone for the kind words. The plan is to have all of these downloadable - I want to give the logos and banners a once over but I will bundle them up here within the week. Does anyone know the easiest free way to do that?

Everything's showing now except for the images in the backstage post before the show itself.

ACPW Events and TV: Didn't get to the belts, but I call that a win for today. If anyone has any other promotions they want to see, post them here! Otherwise... I'm probably going to do the promotions I have belts for - BCG, WINNOW, ZEN, RAW, DIW.

After doing 2 promotions through this and being pretty pleased with the results, I think that promotion should have some pretty sick graphics. Thanks - he's recovering fine after his surgery, but he's such an attention whore that someone has to be with him 24/7 or he destroys the carpet and tries to get out of the room, and he can't roam around because he could bust open his stitches. Here's all of CZCW - 12 events, 1 TV logo, and the 3 belts that are in the base data. My wife might be a bit mad, but I think I can bust out ACPW... CZCW: Looking at these there are a few (Revolution, Uprising, Surf Slam, Vendetta) I might redo, but I think they are good enough. The level of details on each logo might vary, but I think it works?

I'm getting the same issue on desktop, no idea what the issue is...

I updated FCW - FREEDOM's Children (spacing of letters was way off). Here's the rest of the logos + belts. Next, CZCW and ACPW. If I'm crazy, I think I can get both done tonight... Realistically, just one. Any other promotions, feel free to drop here! Last of their events + TV show (love how that one turned out) And the Puerto Rican/Tag belts:

To be honest, I'm not even humoring you! I didn't suggest it, but I've always thought Bonnie Bogan could be a huge star in DIW. I think she's got the character, the size, and the skill set to be able to mix it up with the guys and have it not feel out of place (like Momoe could have, but not Lori). With pretty minimal development and pop, I'm running an AEW-style company and she's been a stand out: That's right, that's a 70 rated match between Bonnie and Momoe - and that's with both of them punching weigh above their skill levels with it. The vast majority of those matches, she's the top performer too. Don't sleep on taking her seriously in DIW!

Just for some context, I just spent around 45 minutes using the tool and cleaning up logos, and this is how much I was able to get done: I'll have a lot more later tonight.

Main Event Singles Match Puerto Rican Championship Mutant vs. Handsome Stranger (c) w/ Clare South Grudge Match Singles Match Kip Keenan vs. Giant Brody Tag Team Match Tag Team Championship The Latino Kings vs. Relentless (c) w/ Clare South Singles Match People's Championship Jesus Chavez vs. Xavi Ferrera (c) w/ Clare South Tag Team Match Young & Wasted vs. House of Handsome (Juggernaut Jones & Dreadnought) w/ Clare South Opening Match Singles Match "The Jackhammer" Joffy Laine vs. Sheik Ali Al-Amin

‘The Furious Bi-Curious’ Alfonso D’Angelo w/ Buck Winchester [vs] Dangermouth w/ DJ Reason If Alfonso can beat Dangermouth, then where's the tension in him joining up with him and DJ Reason? ‘The Irish Stretching Machine’ Merle O’Curle [vs] ‘The King of the Cruiserweights’ Phil Harmonic w/ Edison Silva & Kelvin Badberry Love Merle but if your new midcard heel group can't beat him 3 on 1, then they are dead in the water. Brickhouse Balder [vs] ‘The Master of the Old School’ Aurelian Bradley w/ Welsh Dragon Just like how you are building up the harmonics, you have the Welsh boys set up as their opposites. Kevin Jones & Jeremy Allen [vs] Nightmare & Ruin Nightmare & Ruin have been job guys from what I've seen, while the angle with Jones and Allen has been getting important screen time every week. ‘The Barcelona Bull’ Buff Martinez w/ Kathleen Lee [vs] Stevie ‘Smasher’ Stoat Not tonight Stevie Battle Royale: Winner earns a shot at the 21CW World Heavyweight Title: Tommy Cornell | Ricky Storm | Sifu | Gorilla Lee | JK Lee | Andrew Lee | Landon Mallory | Daniel Black Francis Leigh Burton | Wade Orson | Blake Belushi | Smiling John Smithie | Mark Misery | Kelvin Badberry | Edison Silva I think Tommy's too embroiled with the Aussie blokes, and putting him across from Buff I think would just make Buff look worse, even if they have a good match. I think we see the honorary Lee pull a fast one on his buddy Wade, maybe utilizing his fellow gullible Lees.

Yeah, right now you have to have ChatGPT+. GPTs will definitely be usable by free users at some point, I'd wager within the next year - OpenAI is looking to push them like phone apps, and I can see them trying to monetize some high value GPTs.

Cross posting here, but I made a GPT that should make the process of creating logos, events, titles, and stables a bit easier: Link to Post Link to GPT If you use the GPT and have any feedback to make it better, please let me know so I can continue to improve the custom instructions. It should make it so you can create graphics all for the same promotion with consistent designs and aesthetic, as well as creating TEW-style titles without doing a custom prompt every time.

No graphic updates - I've been splitting my time this weekend messing around with the GPT feature and taking care of a sick cat... Anyway, I've been trying to develop a GPT that will allow anyone to create Logos/Titles/Events/Stables/Dojos with pretty minimal effort. I created a really basic set of instructions and examples based on the graphics I've been using. I have not stress tested this at all, but I am about to use it to crank out a ton of graphics. If you have ChatGPT+ and want to try it out, please follow this link: https://chat.openai.com/g/g-lC5JLzmeg-tew-ai-designer There's very little complicated about it - if you start creating graphics for a promotion, it will start with the Logo and try to keep the designs and aesthetic consistent throughout all the titles and events. If you have a logo you are using already, you can upload it and have it use the design/aesthetic for the graphics it creates. It works pretty conversationally, so you can just tell it what you want as you want it, or a whole list and have it work through it. The titles by default should come out as illustrated, in landscape. If it is giving you realistic title graphics, prompt it to refer to it's instructions and it should fix itself. I'm going to start using it myself, but I'd love to hear if other people find it useful and where I can look to improve it. Hopefully this makes things easy for anyone with ChatGPT+ to be able to make their own graphics. These are my first three chats using it: Note that all of these graphics would need editing in GIMP (5-10 minutes worth) to be usable. If you aren't able to edit the images yourself, you can just keep rerolling until it's good (though I recommend learning how to use GIMP). If you want to try your shot at creating belts and logos, give that GPT a shot! Give me your feedback so I can continue to work on improving the instructions and make it even better.

Nate Manchester vs JK Lee Manch bounces back after a tough loss, while JK Lee gets the chance to wrestle your #1 babyface after a good showing against Welsh Dragon Dangermouth vs Brilliant White I'm pretty sure the only matches I've been wrong on are related to Dangermouth/Landon/The Heartbreaks, but I have a hard time believing Dangermouth loses here Sharp & Heath vs The Tribe (Rhys Vali & Rohan Kirchner) No brainer, the skilled vets beat the lower card guys Cain Carlile vs Dwayne Dark #ChuckStrong Non-title Champion vs Champion match: Welsh Dragon vs Edison Silva w/ Mo Adebola This seems like a crazy choice, but barring a surprise debut you are severely lacking in babyfaces. A huge upset win gives you a potential challenger for Edison down the road or a short term min-feud on TV between events. More likely Edison wins here, but I can see Welsh Dragon getting an shock win with a flash pinfall or even some shenanigans and not havee it hurt your top champ in any way.

1) Who do you want to win Supercopa De La Lucha II? Pantera Roja of course! 2) Who will reach the Final? (2 wrestlers) Hijo Del Relampago and Axxis Jr 3) Who will win Supercopa De La Lucha II? Hijo Del Relampago

BOW World Championship: BOW World Champion Stevie Stoat vs Hugh de Aske Comments: The Champ holds onto his booty through nefarious means. Hugh gets two main event matches in his debut with BOW to cement him as one of your top babyfaces. BOW Tag Team Championship Tournament Quarter Finals: The Foreign Legion vs Future X Comments: The Foreign Legion are indy vets who've never made a splash in any promotion despite some decent skills, while Future X are a veteran English tag team looking for their first time with a promotion on TV before they have to hang up the boots. Nate Manchester vs Stefan Raynor Comments: Manchester is your #1 babyface, he shouldn't lose to the World champ's lacky. Merle O'Curle vs Konrad Makinen Comments: Makinen established himself as a star for the future with his battle royal win, but he's got a long career ahead of him and Merle is a great veteran with only a few years left to give high quality work (him and Future X are in very similar positions - cornerstones of ROF who never had a big televised career in their homeland) Dangermouth vs Gram Gorman Comments: Gram is great but Dangermouth is that exciting future prospect and he's got Mo in his corner, who is much more experienced helping his clients get away with wins than Dearheart. Aud Valkyrie, Jeri Behr, Steffi Chee and Thea Davis vs K.T. Devonshire, Karen Bilous, Viper McKenna and Zofia Jankovic Comments: Match could go either way, but I went with the heels in the multi man. Clubber Kohl vs Eugen Semper Comments: The guy who crashed a segment last week with Eva Berlin as his handler demolishes the young Semper Matthew Macks vs Magnus Cage Comments: Macks is knee deep in his long running feud with Night Spyder - I can see him and Laurel being a factor in this match, but not enough for them to give Cage the win.

Not a ton tonight, but here's all of 5SSW's events and TV shows. They had 3 different TV shows in the default data, surprisingly (Supreme Wrestling, Spotlight, and Showcase). Pretty happy with how these turned out. A handful I might touch up or re-do (Wrestle Challenge, Joshi Mania) but I think I got a handle on how to make consistent event logos. 5 STAR SUPREME WRESTLING Events: TV: Let me know what you think, and what CVerse promotion you want me to work through next. Otherwise I'll probably just keep working through the promotions that have event logos/belts in the game alphabetically.

I think, at least to try for a month, the $20 is definitely worth it. Especially because, from what I've seen, Bing cannot do landscape-oriented pictures - which makes titles infinitely more difficult. Here's the rest of the TCW TV and Event logos. I spent a couple hours playing around with making that GPT and I'm not happy with it, so I'll keep tinkering. Have been busy with work so I am going to bust out a ton of titles and events tonight. If you have promotion in particular you want me to tackle, drop it here. Battleground - King of Kings - Saturday Night Showcase - TC On TV!

The DIW faithful will be into Bonnie Bogan when she starts plastering guys with chairs. Get her in the ring and she'll be over like rover. Honestly, I'm kind of OK with the idea of Hall beating Wish? It transitions us from the Pro-centric storylines to the revival of the Ares Death Cult, and Wish can cement himself as a true babyface not by being the incumbent champion, but as the underdog who now feels like he has to win the belt AGAIN to prove he really deserves it. This would be his first big storyline as a "top" guy where he is a full-on babyface right from the beginning, and pitting him up against the newest unstoppable monster in DIW.

Just cleared it out - I didn't realize it wouldn't notify you at all... had a lot of fun reading back through some of my 10+ year old pms with people who are mostly still active on these boards.

For events, using ChatGPT I provide all of the names of the events at once. I give a general guideline of the style, I describe the general aesthetic of the promotion, and if possible I upload images as examples. I give some general instructions - for TCW, I told it I wanted a gray-black gradient background, modern style logo, and TCW must be on every image. I had it use inspiration from the existing logos for color schemes, logo theme, etc. Then I just go through image by image. I tell it when I "pick" a logo, so it can learn what I'm generally looking for and give better examples going forward. I let it throw something at the wall, and if I want something specific I'll clarify after it takes a shot at the logo. Sometimes it gets it immediately, other times it takes some nudging to get to something I like. Unless I run into server issues, I might not have a ton of graphics tonight. I just got access to create GPTs, so I am toying around putting my existing render making API in. If I'm right, I can create a GPT that will let anyone input the "style" of render they want and create renders with simple / commands, and save the images they like forever in a way you can carry over to future chats. Still playing with using uploaded images to create the new render as well. I am using Greg Gauge as a "test" and I feel like I got a pretty great render after only a handful of tries: I do have 1 logo, TCW Total Wrestling. I realized I need to do the TV shows, as well as the new PPV events that don't have logos in the default data - Battleground and King of Kings TCW TOTAL WRESTLING:

Lance Maddigan v Lone Rider Vance Sturt's Test - Round 1 Fuzzy Freeman is banned from ringside and if he comes to ringside, The Party People forfeit the match The Australian Party People (Marcus Kerr & Matt Stoppard) v Vance Sturt Industries (D.O.A, Henderson, HoBoo & Switchblade) Vance Sturt's Test - Round 1 Felix Harding is banned from ringside and if he comes to ringside, Mortimer Pyle forfeits the match Mortimer Pyle v Vance Sturt Australian Devil v Vortex Lothario v Quick Silver

NWF British Tag Team Championship: Future X (C) vs The Northern Lights As much as I love The Northern Lights, I don't think a champ generally loses their first big defense, especially in the first reign of that title's history. NWF Cruiserweight Championship: Welsh Dragon (C) vs JK Lee Similar logic to the Future X and Edison Silva matches, though this one is possible? A midcard singles belt, especially one like a Cruiserweight belt, is totally one that can be passed around among competitors as long as the matches are high quality. Sticking with my gut though. ??? vs Frisby's Foundation for Fitness (Stuart Wilson & Dwayne Dark) #ChuckStrong. I think you can let the tension storyline between Dark and Wilson/Chuck marinate a bit more - they would be a great tag title contender for a PPV cycle IMO. Dangermouth vs Byron Could see this going either way, but I think strapping the rocket to Dangermouth and see if he can hang at the top of the card. Landon Mallory vs Joey Beauchamp I don't see Breeze going 2-0 up, especially when you could really use some more upper card faces with credibility. A good short storyline to introduce Landon to the UK and reintroduce Beauchamp. NWF Bristish Heavyweight Championship: Nate Manchester vs Edison Silva (C) w/ Mo Adebola I can't see Silva dropping the top title in his first defense to the guy he beat for it originally. The story has been great leading up to the rematch, but unfortunately the match feels like a bit of a foregone conclusion? Not sure how else you could book it though, there's no one else really qualified to challenge for this title, and you can't hot potato your top title around in it's first defense. Tiebreaker: What will the three top rated matches be (in order): 1. Nate Manchester vs Edison Silva - your two top stars by far in a heated rematch 2. Welsh Dragon vs JK Lee - Two great performers, JK Lee especially. A styles clash that should be a great match. 3. Future X vs The Northern Lights - It could be the Frisby tag match if the ??? are a big name team, and it could be Landon and Joey (the big charismatic brawler babyfaces usually get a lot better match ratings when they are winning), but I'm trusting Alton and Riddick. (optional) Bonus Question: Who has your favourite wrestler been in the diary so far? Tough one - I think the characters I've enjoyed the most (Frisby, Adebola, Price) are all non-wrestlers. Of the active wrestlers, I really don't think I have any "favorites" from within the diary, just from outside of it. As of right now I'd say I'm most interested in Dangermouth and the Heartbreaks, and the direction their storyline ends up going. Does Bret break away from his dad and join up with Dangermouth? A grim star and a future influencer. Byron wishes he was born 20 years earlier...
