  3. TopRopeElbow.com presents MAW Wrestling Classic Fallout, by Ricky Gibbons Hello fans of independent wrestling! Local expert on all things Confederation Of The Territories here to shed some light on what’s going down in Mid Atlantic Wrestling now that a few days have passed since the well-received MAW Wrestling Classic 2020. First off, the word on the street is that current Mid Atlantic Champion Bradley Blaze won’t be appearing on the March show Super Showdown in any capacity. The company’s twitter account has also gone about hyping the return of Frankie-Boy Fernandes at Super Showdown. Could the company be trying to keep them apart for some kind of match later down the line? Only time will tell, but with both guys seemingly playing face at the moment a singles match in the near future seems unlikely. It will be interesting to see whether or not Blaze really is off Super Showdown. Hopefully he hasn’t picked up any injuries that could jeopardise what has been a fairly entertaining run with the Mid Atlantic Championship. The second important bit of Super Showdown news on the rumour mill today is that due to choking out the champion during a tag team match at Wrestling Classic, Sandman Winks is going to receive a title match against Jaylon Martins for the Mid Atlantic American title. Winks, who has been used fairly consistently in the tag ranks over his first few years in MAW will surely be looking to put in a standout performance in what could be a breakout singles match for the man. Meanwhile his opponent, Martins, will be looking to silence some of the critics who believe he was not at all ready to hold a title in MAW, and are suggesting that the Total Championship Wrestling contracted talent are being handed opportunities in order for Sam Keith to remain amicable with BriCo. Jumping off that point, and leaving what is the juiciest yet least likely to be true rumour for last. There are whispers and rumblings that management at MAW are looking to rebrand the Mid Atlantic American title. This news coincides with the increased involvement of Tamara McFly in the backstage dealings of MAW. The former Babes of Sin City and 5 Star Wrestling worker was apparently brought in to bring a new perspective and shake things up in MAW. This would surely be a massive change for the company and one that would come at some financial cost, although depending on the rebrand it could be a good move.

  5. I think a nice compromise would be if it took time to set up the broadcaster like for upgrading merchandise. I can spend 50 grand on the tiny broadcaster but itll take 6-12 months to set up
  6. I'm just sitting here now like "Oh boy I really hope Classic Balanced doesn't have the penalty for angles over 5 minutes"
  7. Im going to go in the camp of it's fine because it's fun and you don't have to use it if you dont want, but it will definitely help stop some of the mid-game grind that can happen trying to grow a company to medium size
  8. Honestly my favourite new feature might be the unlimited alliance loans. I always used to have Too good to use syndrome with them but now I can just bring people in its great
  9. Thanks for the praise! Although minor spoiler, there will be no Mid Atlantic Championship match in March. Watch this space
  10. I go for the shock win one time, and Seth Whitehead lets me down! Great show though, very intrigued as to what awaits a babyface Ernest Youngmen, given that both singles title holders are faces.
  11. Okay, I'm going to drop a bomb here, and argue a point that has been rolling around in my brain for a couple of days now. I think the old product system was boring. I think an awful lot of people just used a preset product and maybe made one or two tweaks. And you may say "Gotcha! They can't make those tweaks in 2020!" Well you're right, they can't fiddle with drop down menus. But 90% of the time people would just tweak a "respect for wrestling" present product into something that now resembles the Modern Throwback or Golden Age products we have now. The old product system has been around for like a decade now, and we solved it. There was pretty much an objectively best product base that you then made one or two tweak to if you wanted. Now, I've been very outspoken about the fact I don't like some of the more "you're playing the sandbox wrong" features that have been added in this version. But at the same time I think the new system just gives a new tool to use, while expanding our control as players over things like workers and shows and contracts. I feel like it's worth more to have a nuanced, and balanced system of products and then greater control over the day-to-day stuff in my company rather than having a mountain of options for what was a very "set it and forget it" feature in the last couple of TEWs.
  12. I've head canoned it as the traditionalist MAW fans turning against the influx of TCW guys coming in and instantly being pushed beyond their abilities, such as Martins being a champion despite not being very good in the ring, or Whitehead and Robbinsfield being former tag champs even though they were just thrown together.
  13. MAW Wrestling Classic 2020 Fri, Wk 4, Feb 2020 Attendance: 182 Opening Match Tag Team Match 15-Minute Time Limit & vs & • This was a fairly back and forth tag affair with four young guys all looking to make a name for themselves. The Past Masters have been taking shots at Martins and Fili on twitter for taking up spots on the card from guys who need it, even though they have deals with TCW. • Martins’ explosivity and Fili’s power worked well for a time but unfortunately, while Fili was caught on the outside battling The Historian, Sandman Winks locked in his Deep Sleep sleeper hold on the Mid Atlantic American champion and made him pass out. • In a bout that had a decent reaction from the crowd but terrible wrestling, The Past Masters defeated Jaylon Martins and Joey Fili in 10:25 when Sandman Winks submitted Jaylon Martins with a Deep Sleep. • Joey Fili was off his game. Rating: 22 Singles Match 15-Minute Time Limit vs • Kid Fantastic came out as the local talent to face Josh Jacobs and started the match off quite strongly. He popped the crowd once or twice with his flashy escapes and innovative techniques. • Unfortunately for him, after a few minutes Jacobs turned up the aggression and began to lay into him with hard punches and kicks. • Fantastic did attempt once more to hit a high risk move on Jacobs, but he was caught in mid-air and drilled into the mat. • In a decent match, Josh Jacobs defeated Kid Fantastic in 5:47 by pinfall with a Canadian Backdrop. Rating: 29 Tag Team Match 15-Minute Time Limit & vs & • This was a fairly by-the-numbers affair, the heels took control early, battering Tyrone Gray around the ring for a few minutes before he managed to make the hot tag to DeMarcus. • DeMarcus flew around the ring, taking out everybody in sight before landing his Rocket Launcher shoulder tackle for the win. • In a bout that had a decent reaction from the crowd but sub-par wrestling, DeMarcus & Gray defeated Deuce Deadline and Trix Triumph in 5:34 when Nate DeMarcus pinned Trix Triumph with a Rocket Launcher. • Tyrone Gray seemed off his game. Rating: 30 Tag Team Match 15-Minute Time Limit & W/vs& •The Wolf Pack controlled much of this match with their power-based offence. •The Heartbreak Express made a spirited comeback, and even looked like they had the match one a few times but the strength of their opponents overwhelmed them and led to a defeat. •In a bout that had a decent reaction from the crowd but terrible wrestling, The Wolf Pack defeated The Heartbreak Express in 7:54 when Sean Noggin pinned Johnny Needham with a Hangman's Neckbreaker. Rating: 27 Singles Match 15-Minute Time Limit vs • Copperhead cheated early and often throughout this match, keeping Miller Fforde on the back foot for most of its 6-minute run time. • Fforde hit a big dropkick on Copperhead to turn things around, followed by a corkscrew elbow from the middle rope and then finished things off with his Fforde Flip Face Crusher. • In a decent match, Miller Fforde defeated Copperhead in 5:46 by pinfall with a Fforde Flip Face Crusher. Rating: 38 Main Event Mid Atlantic Championship Match Singles Match 30-Minute Time Limit vs © • This bout followed a similar formula to The Rip Chord Invitational final, as Bradley Blaze tried to come out of the gate hot but found himself cut off constantly by The Architect’s cheating and good scouting. • After being worn down for a decent length of time, Blaze made a comeback and dropped The Architect with tough punches and big suplexes. • The match was very back and forth with neither man seemingly looking like he would come out on top, a time limit draw looked likely. • But when it looked like Blaze was going to hit his Dallas Drop, Cheetah Boy came down to the ring and attacked him, causing the disqualification. The Architect looked on in disbelief but thought better of having it out with Cheetah Boy, after going 22 minutes with the Mid Atlantic Champion. • The show ended with Cheetah Boy screaming at Blaze, promising that he will beat him. • In a bout that had good heat and decent wrestling, Bradley Blaze defeated The Architect in 21:52 when The Architect was disqualified when Cheetah Boy ran in and attacked Bradley Blaze. Bradley Blaze makes defence number three of the Mid Atlantic Championship title. Rating: 42 Show rating: 40
  14. Hmmm I wonder when the Aces of Mayhem will be announced
  15. Yeah the finances are because of your starting reputation, its explained in the handbook. So just set your user reputation to lowest possible when picking your avatar
  16. This seems really interesting! I am curious what the status of women's wrestling in the mod is though? With only 3 women's promotions and no joshi scene whatsoever, will more companies or workers be added as time goes on or set to debut?
  17. <div style="text-align:center;"><p><strong><span style="font-size:12px;">The Blueprint</span></strong></p></div><p></p><p> </p><p> The Wrestling Classic has been a part of the events calendar for Mid Atlantic Wrestling for 15 years. Just as long as the Rip Chord Invitational, the Sam Keith Classic or Where It All Begins Again. Yet, it lacked the buzz or excitement of these other events. No tournament final, no storyline payoff, rarely any big stars from the Confederation made an appearance.</p><p> </p><p> The Architect, real name Trevor Riggs, sat in Stanley Hall, the venue he wrestled in countless times over the last eight years. Eight long years of his life and now he had been given the chance to make it count. His brief run as tag team champion with Jonah Pilgrim failed to ignite the way he wanted it to, owing mostly to the fact that the tag titles were in need of rebuilding after years of being held by teams who didn’t deserve the run. And that is where Trevor found himself that day. Receiving another push nobody else thought he deserved. But Jay didn’t give up on him. Jay saw something in Trevor and he decided he was going to pay back every ounce of support in dollars from tickets. Trevor got up and walked back to the locker room to start warming up for his big match. For once the Wrestling Classic would be the show of the year, Trevor would make sure of that.</p>
  18. The shade of red you use is much darker than the usual green/white/red background so I (and I assume most others) can read it fine. But in that decay promo I could the dark red text was very hard to read on the dark green and dark red background, but was fine on the black.
  19. Aw darn, the one time I go against my boy winning the big one he goes and does it! Interested to see where you fit The Architect in between Blaze and Cheetah Boy. Kiu!

  21. <div style="text-align:center;"><p><strong><span style="font-size:12px;">Run Like a Cheetah</span></strong></p></div><p></p><p> </p><p> You didn’t get many second breaks in professional wrestling. In fact most people tended to miss out on a first break. James Neil knew that all too well, and the man best known as Cheetah Boy refused to let his go to waste. When he got the call from Sam Keith, he knew better than to turn his nose up at working for an indie promotion. He knew he had been working for a glorified indie in the form of Rhode Island Pro Wresting anyway. Every day James worked for Sam Keith he could feel his love for the business returning bit by bit. Slowly but surely, Cheetah Boy was becoming more and more of James Neil, and not just the suit he put on to make a living.</p><p> </p><p> The sound of the machines in the gym helped James gather his thoughts. The clank, clank, crash of unforgiving steel as it was pulled and pushed, up and down, back and forth. James was at piece in the gym. By no means a large man, James worked primarily on cardio. Keith and Fair loved their long, drawn out wars in the main event, and that is where James planned to be. He didn’t know what the long term plan for the Mid Atlantic Championship was, but he assumed laying down for Bradley Blaze was all part of some intricate story to get somebody else over. He was fine with that, he had his time in the Sun, he figured it was about time to pass the torch.</p><p> </p><p> With that, his thoughts were interrupted after bumping into somebody while moving between machines. When he had snapped back to reality he realised Trix Triumph, real name Toby Forster, was standing in front of him.</p><p> </p><p> “Hey uh, James…” He began. “I was wondering if I could talk to you about something.”</p><p> </p><p> James paused for a second, looked up at his colleague wide-eyed, and failed to respond.</p><p> </p><p> “I mean, if now isn’t a good time I understand. I just saw you working out here and you know since we work together I figured I would say “hi” and I didn’t realise I was going to ask you for a favour until it slipped out and now I realise that I’m still talking and I’m going to shut up now.” </p><p> </p><p> James let out a chuckle and wrapped his arm around his young colleague and began to guide him out, “how about we shower and change and then we can talk about this when we smell less bad.”</p><p> </p><p> “Oh. Yes. Sure.” Toby said, as he allowed his stiffened form to be led out of the gym.</p><p> </p><p> After showering and changing, James found Toby sitting in the entrance area to the gym. There were a dozen small armchairs in pairs, each pair its own colour, a reception desk with two bookish-looking young ladies typing and filing and a handful of vending machines with protein bars, energy drinks and other assorted snacks. James sat across from Toby and smiled at him again, “So, what is this favour?”</p><p> </p><p> “I need help James.” Toby’s eyes held a small hint of desperation. That, combined with his pleading tone gave him an air of a pink-haired puppy.</p><p> </p><p> “What do you need help with?”</p><p> </p><p> “Everything, James. Everything. I’m awkward on the mic I can barely get my words out. I’m awkward and stiff, and not in a funny way. And let’s face it, I’m not putting on match of the year.” He paused and took a deep breath before continuing. “You worked for US Pro, even if it was before they were the big dogs, you rubbed elbows with some big names. You went through Rhode Island. You know what you’re doing, and I was just hoping maybe you could help me figure it out?”</p><p> </p><p> “So you want a teacher?” James asked incredulously</p><p> </p><p> “No, no. Not a teacher. Just a sounding board. Someone who can help me with my delivery before a show, or can help round out some rough edges you see in my spots.”</p><p> </p><p> James got up and patted Toby on the shoulder, he leaned down and gave him one last warm smile, “Okay kid, I’ll see what I can do.” </p><p> </p><p> And with that, he left.</p>
  22. Most (maybe all at this point?) people use imgur to host their images. I then keep an excel sheet of all the names plus the BBcode (the one that starts with ) and paste them in as necessary.
  23. You can always reactivate Champagne Lover and pick him up
  24. I'm hearing great things about this Vegas kid, I say strap a rocket to him!
