  1. Prediction Card (if needed)

    Aldous Blackfriar © Vs. Hustle Muvva w/Cindy - Title Match for IPW Championship

    Result: I can't see such a long reign ending without more story around it.

    Canadian Hardcore (Otis Von Battenberg & Sasquatch McGraw) Vs. Coulrophobia (Hellech & Pierrot) - Hardcore Match

    Result: I can see CH's route back to the title hitting a roadblock.

    Frantic Ali w/Anslem Briggs Vs. The Outlaw

    Result: Perhaps Ali v Aldous will be the first main feud.

    Hugh de Aske © Vs. JOJI – Title Match for IPW Californian Championship

    Result: I like both of these, pretty 50/50 so I'll take the safer bet with the champ.

    Lug Phelan Vs. Melvin Otto – Hardcore Match

    Result: I always like people going for triple crowns.

    Minnesota Awesome (Clark Smallbone & Perry Longstaff) Vs. Mexican Hardcore Killers (E-Z & Sanchez Villano) – Title Match for IPW Tag Team Championship

    Result: Keep the heat magnets going!

     

    Real strong start, I liked in the intro that I could easily agree with both Sneer and J'Ro.

  4. Man, this makes me wish Dizzy G came with any sort of entertainment skills. I could see him being a member of Swoop's entourage.

     

    Will just keeps on killing it. I hope he's delivering the goods in-game too, because I don't want to see him disappear anytime soon.

     

    Missed your comment.

     

    Will provides for me just as much, if not more, than he ever did for Miss Wayne. Saying that, his stats aren't yet A-tier, or even B. But his star quality is higher than Swoop and he's 21 so he definitely has a bright future. Although I quite like that I've developed a sense of fear that any character can end up disappearing, there's definitely a few getting cut soon!

     

    Edit: Dizzy G actually wasn't at all on my radar, probably because his wrestling psychology is higher than his acting which is essentially blasphemy in these parts.

  5. An interviewer? Really? You could have just signed D-Ood for the role like I did. Buttt noooooo had to get SubUrban Legend and give him the name Pipsquek. Bah!

     

    You can't blame the lad, he'll earn more in one 2 minute interview than he would busting his ass on any of your shows ;)

     

    You CAN blame me though yes. But the truth is a 'legend' on the indies begins as a pip in the big leagues.

  6. Thanks to all who voted on the survey. This episode is essentially just a fancy way of posting the results but also a way of introducing a new character.

     

    For anyone interested he's played by Curt Merrit. The 21 year old came to RAW with no popularity but he's too perfect for what I'm trying to build here to pass on. Essentially I want as many roster members to be versatile. I want all my managers to be able to wrestle, my wrestlers to perform other jobs whether that be manager/commentating/road agent etc. I want a strong core cast (and then can have 'extras' or temporary workers rotating around them). So Curt is perfect, he has the potential to be an excellent entertainer, he can wrestle and also colour commentate but right now he's actually going to be a sort of authority figure... but that will become clearer as we continue.

     

    So I appreciate that these posts are aren't the proper episode of RAW Attitude! that you've come to expect, as I mentioned previously these are supposed to be sort of filler/maintenance episodes whilst The ASN Studios are sorted after the Paintball Fight. I've not spent much time on them and so it's also allowed me to spend time on the new renders/future planning and a whole new look for the shows that will debut soon!

     

    There is one more of these off season style episodes. 'The Corporate Reshuffle and Official Roster Stock Take' but then we return to the 'proper' RAW Attitude!

  7. I've used a couple of images found online as backgrounds in my diary. To be honest I've often just searched for what sort of thing I wanted lets say 'basement' or 'Australian bar' and I've ended up using some of those images.

     

    I don't really have any knowledge over what is technically classed as fair use, obviously the fact that in no way are we making a profit from these images will surely help but I know that's not actually the only thing that matters. Weirdly enough though as I was searching for a new one yesterday this thought did cross into my mind.

     

    I assume it's ok in the same way all real world mods surely use photos that might be copyrighted? And they are all on a scale magnitudes bigger than my diary.

  8. This really did everything a mid-season finale should do... worked as a great ending point to many feuds/storylines but also left me super interested in the second half.

     

    Croft Enterprises are a complete package now, it will be interesting to see what their ceiling is, but they definitely could/should go far. Tombstone as well after being booked as a dominant champ for the whole half season is another I'm interested to see what's next for.

     

    The 3 on 3 was obviously cool, and a massive moment with Joss arriving, straight away making him seem like a big deal.

     

    And then the main event delivered everything! Perfect for the doug/riley storyline that has been brewing just in the background for so long to end up closing the show, in a way at least.

  9. I've only ever properly played WMMA5 as WEFF just because I struggle to keep so many weight divisions going at once so womens MMA naturally limits me in a good way. It's bringing back so many memories reading through this.

     

    Out of the people you have I remember the swede, Aniki, had a pretty decent run with me early on with some big upsets. I know Rives screwed up a bunch of my plans by beating a few of my favourites (and ended up dual division champ).

     

    How is Idina Mickelthwaite doing? Guessing she's just in WEFF? She was super dominant for me for a few years. Surprised Trish is still undefeated, I know she last her streak pretty early on with me.

     

    I emphasize with your super heavyweight division issues though I tried to get a lightweight womens one going (mostly just to give Idina some stuff to do after going through all the featherweights) but the talent pool just wasn't there. But it's always made me a little sad that super heavyweights aren't that big or interesting in UFC but I suppose it's just they don't actually have the athletic capability to put on entertaining fights most the time.

  10. I liked seeing the breakdown of the loop. Part of me is definitely against the idea of Toowoomba show, but then as a theme there's probably a lot you can do with it assuming it's treated as a strange special occasional rather than a new normal. The idea of the beach folk being stranded in land is fun, I can imagine a lot of the faces would struggle in an environment without the sea, sun and sand. Is it even possible to contain the star quality of Sufer Dude Lucas INside a building?
  11. If you're right that all those orphans are going to compete in apprentice style challenges then I'm sold already, I don't need to know anymore, it's already great!

     

    Another good show! I'm picking El Toro De Oro Jr as my new favourite, something just cool about him in that segment. The idea of Snake King going after Demon King is amazing and the first proper look at Nacash was good to get, even if he is stuck in a puny human body.

     

    I liked the reveal of the attacker too, always a fan when a mystery is revealed only to point to a deeper mystery (in who he was working for).

  13. Loved the PPV. I think you've said it doesn't actually take you that long, and it has been said previously, but the little cuts you do to the moves really does help me picture it all happening. First thing that stood out was Rob Terry's insane physique in that picture! I think you're definitely right that him and Anderson sort of in a role similar to MJF and Wardlow in AEW at the moment will really work for Anderson.

     

    I liked the AJ promo, it's the sort of thing which as soon as you point out why that match was different, and why Joe is a special opponent it's all obvious and I knew it, but it was still done well and did hype up the match. Curious where Joe goes on from here, and it's definitely solidified AJ as his reign has already been super impressive.

     

    Strange to see you get another 71 (although part of me likes the fact that all 3 PPVs have score the same as it's speaks to the consistency but also means when you finally get closer to the 75ish mark it will stand out). But yeah with the main event much higher and even the 2nd best match still scoring a 71 I think you were unlucky. Speaking of ratings I definitely think it will have been the 'keep strong' note on the Kurt match that will have hurt it, not to say that you shouldn't have done it as it's probably more important that Kurt keeps popularity than a middle of the card match pulls a higher rating, but from my experience keep strong really does limit a match.

     

    You weren't lying that the WM card was weird!

     

    Them deciding suddenly to love triple threats is odd. Evan Bourne in the title match made me think of Michgcs diary that started with Evan Bourne winning the world title. I think that would have been around 2010 actually so perhaps it's not such a crazy thought for him to have exploded in popularity around that time.

     

    I love that it started with a 2 on 2 brawl having to be pulled apart, and then that lead into the exact same segment but with a different 4 people.

     

    Like you say Diesel tagging with Ezekial and Swagger is weird.. them being collectively known as 'The Goblins' is hilarious. I'm assuming what happened in my mind... is Swagger started a feud with Jerry Lawler for some reason, Lawler was then backed up by Primo and Epico so Swagger said ok I'll get two people to back me up, so he went out and found the two biggest people he could find which just so happened to be Diesel and Jackson. How they then became known as The Goblins though completely escapes me. I also love the idea that all three members of The Goblins were interviewed on the show.. but separately! and two of which after the match.

     

    I genuinely would pay to see that card. It's in that perfect zone of so odd that it's must see, but not too odd that it's unbelievable that it could have actually all happened. What can I say no matter what you do with TNA it looks like WWE is always going to win the war!

  14. Nice recap, I was hoping Isaac Taylor would make an appearance, but oh well. Maybe next time.

     

    For a split second that actually got me. Maybe when he graduates to an Orange Belt he'll be worthy of attention although I hear that's a tricky one in Echo-Fu.

     

    Best Scene? How is there no Matty Wills and Manhunter in the field! Travesty.

     

    Favourite wrestler? Well there is no Matty Wills, no Will Beaumont and there is no Lynx (Who between you and Lloyd have actually made me care about as a wrestler, someone I hated.) It has to be Swoop, but got Big Mac was so close.

     

    I appreciate the comments! There was definitely a couple of scenes that almost made the nominations. If I'm honest part of the reason Wills didn't is because in I'm genuinely not even sure if he will return so I didn't want any spotlight on him. He's still technically employed but I've been trying to slim down the roster and his skills definitely make him a prime candidate to be let go (same with Manhunter). That said, even though I viewed his storyline as only a vehicle to get Brodie Lachlan over I think people could enjoy him eventually returning and so at some point I have to put what the fans want over in game stats/skills.

     

    I'm glad to see Swoop get some love, it might be that people are voting for him just in recognition that he's the main star but I think it's easy to have someone like Swoop be unlikeable or at least for the fans to be drawn towards more of an underdog, but he's doing well in the polls which I'm happy to see. Will Beaumont wasn't nominated because in kayfabe I think it only makes sense for the fan's favourite wrestler to be a face. That said you've reminded me about Lloyd and La Estrella's prediction prize for the contest that's finished.

     

    There's 4 things you can chose from, I'm just gonna call it first come first served, pick 1 of the A options and 1 of the B options and if you could PM me your answers that would be great. When somebody does I'll edit this post to tell the 2nd person what they have left.

     

    A1: The ASN Network have their own category in the RAWards 'ASN's Favourite Wrestler' however the network enjoys it's heels so please pick any bad guy to win this. Examples of the top heels are Blake Belushi, Maurice Jackson, Luke Steele, Captain Wrestling II, Will Beaumont, Brodie Lachlan, but pick any you'd like.

     

    A2: In the last couple of shows (before paintball fight! and the RAWards) we saw Gladiator's girlfriend from the US debut. In game this is the worker known as Black Diamond. I do however like changing names most the time for new characters, it feels like something RAW would do. So you can name this person.

     

    IuCTtdf.png

     

    This might give you some inspiration, her character hasn't been fleshed out much yet but she's a tough woman from Chicago who is positive and cheerful.

     

     

    The TV Title is going to be decided in a good old fashioned traditional tournament! The second part of your prediction prize is to pick somebody to reach the final.

     

    B1: Pick a face to reach the final

     

    B2: Pick a heel to reach the final

     

     

    So to confirm, The_Lloyd and La Estrella can pick 1 of the A prizes AND 1 of the B prizes. I'm doing it this way so no one person knows exactly how the tournament is going to go as that would be a shame.

     

    A reminder that the survey is above for anyone who hasn't done it and the new prediction contest is now running with HiPlus currently on 1 point. I want to add to the list of things you can cash a point in for 'Request Merch' this is basically you can pick a worker and I'll make them up a t-shirt or any other piece of clothing. I've already made some t-shirts for people but I like the idea of only fan chosen wrestlers getting merch, so in time it will be like a badge of honour where only certain people have been picked to have their own merch. Although as a reminder HiPlus (and any future winners) can opt to save up their points for a more major visual re-branding of a character.

     

    EDIT: So LaEstrella is seemingly a big fan of the heels and has picked A1 and B2. So Lloyd wherever you are you can pick the FACE to reach the final, and the new name of Black Diamond!

  15. Lucky Chance Fatal-4-Way

    Nighthawk (1-Time Winner) – Tobias Bastio – Kasey – White Wasp

     

    King Malietoa vs Richie Fox

     

    Goliath Global (Scottie Hamstead, Massacre and Reggie Tate) vs Hack the Hunter and R & R

     

    Tyrant vs Pookie Possum vs Alyx Macquarie vs Lone Shark

    Monday Next vs Brisbane Devil When I see the main champ in non titles singles action I can't help but expect shenanigans although perhaps that could be post match...

     

    Another solid show, Lothar is definitely growing on me as I felt bad for Digno here. Crazy to see RAW release Blake and now Loxley. I can't at all think why they would do that, I mean it is a large roster but they shouldn't be struggling for cash so you'd assume they'd get rid of the lower card first. Gladiator could be cool to see here.

  16. Goldberg vs. Steve McMichael

    Buff Bagwell vs. Lex Luger

    WCW World Cruiserwieght Championship: Dean Malenko vs Eddie Guerrero ©

    Chris Jericho vs. Rey Mysterio, Jr.

    WCW World Television Championship: Chris Benoit vs. Saturn ©

    WCW United States Championship: Diamond Dallas Page vs. Curt Hennig ©

    Randy Savage, Scott Hall & Kevin Nash vs. The Giant & The Steiner Brothers

    WCW World Heavyweight Championship: Sting vs. 'Hollywood' Hogan ©

     

    Enjoying this so I'm looking forward to seeing how Starrcade goes. It's odd because growing up I was always completely a WWF guy, I never even knew WCW existed until I went to a friends house and he had a Goldberg,DDP,The Giant etc figures. But I still really enjoy WCW diaries, and over the last few years there's been some real good ones.
