Just wanted to take a moment to wish you well in this endeavor, hopefully you find that it keeps your attention more this time!!

Good show there, and look at that....<span style="color:#FFFFFF;">NEW Tag Team Champions</span>....and I liked the way you got King Corino through to the next round while also advancing the story line with Chuck and Sean!

What an excellent start! Having just watched the epic 30 for 30 on the Lakers/Celtics history (truly a must watch!) I am really psyched about this diary and what you do with it! I hope it's a lot of fun for you to play, because I think it's going to be fun to watch!

<p>Fan Scorecard:</p><p> </p><p> War Games Match: Team Flair ("Nature Boy" Ric Flair, Sting, Sean O'Haire and AJ Styles) vs. <strong>The Empire (King Corino, Chris Candido, Chuck Palumbo and TAKA)</strong>-feels like this may be the end of Ric Flair sad as that will be....or....is it!?</p><p> *If Team Flair wins: Flair gets 5 minutes alone in the cage with Eric Bischoff</p><p> *If The Empire wins: Flair must retire</p><p> </p><p> United States Heavyweight Championship: Rick Steiner vs. <strong>Shane Douglas</strong> {©}</p><p> </p><p> Cruiserweight Championship: "Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels vs. <strong>American Dragon {©}</strong>-this one feels like it's a match that should have happened at Starrcade!</p><p> </p><p> No DQ: <strong>Rob Van Dam</strong> vs. Mortis</p><p> </p><p> <strong>"Big Poppa Pump" Scott Steiner</strong> vs. The Unnatural</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Jeff Hardy</strong> vs. CM Punk-can't see Punk being quite popular enough to beat THE Jeff Hardy</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Hayabusa and Jinsei Shinzaki </strong>vs. The Jung Dragons</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Billy Kidman</strong> vs. Psychosis</p><p> </p><p> <strong>Davey Boy Smith</strong> vs. Disco Inferno</p><p> </p><p> What will be match of the night?

Totally understandable with what you are feeling, but I truly hope this is not the end. I was sad when Wildfire1324 stopped writing, but you managed to pick up the torch and run with it and filled that spot, just would not be the same if you stop writing.

Well I finally finished reading TGAAB, brilliantly done loved the ending...loved the whole dynasty in fact, and have completely got caught up on this one. Love what you're doing with this WCW, my very first dynasty was set in this time as well if you remember, and I like the twist with Bret Hart and getting to see some insight into what is happening behind the scenes: Fan Scorecard: World Heavyweight Championship: Sting vs. "Big Poppa Pump" Scott Steiner {©} Stu Hart Classic Finals: Rob Van Dam vs. Booker T I think things would have been different if it wasn't for that dastardly thing known as science, if you willll, but Sting gets one final "thank you" reign and the feud with Booker T is already in place so even though Booker T was not happy putting Sting over, he better get ready to reconsider before Starrcade! United States Heavyweight Championship: Rick Steiner vs. Rey Misterio Jr. {©} World Tag Team Championship: Doomsday vs. Natural Born Thrillers {©} Doomsday is not the team to beat the NBT....for that you will need a couple of....Heroes.... Cruiserweight Championship: Chavo Guerrero Jr. vs. Jushin Thunder Liger {©} Dustin Rhodes vs. Vampiro Jerry "The King" Lawler vs. "King of Old School" Steve Corino...got to build Corino up because....well....we'll get there. Alex Wright and Ernest "The Cat" Miller vs. True Heroes Oh how the WCW World Tag Team Championship's are going to look good around the all natural waist's of two superior, drug free athlete's! Jamie Knoble vs. Fit Finlay What will be match of the night? Lots of good options, but I'll go with RVD vs. Booker T since you won't need to do anything to appease Booker T How many championships will change hands? (the tournament does not count) 0 Will we find out who attacked Ric Flair? Yes Who attacked Flair? "The King of Old School" Steve Corino....to set up the leader of the Original Horsemen vs. the Leader of the Extreme Horsemen!
