<p>Just caught up on this and I love it. It's funny how quickly you can get attached to a rag-tag group of misfits like those in ELITE and I look forward to when they pop up again, and what other characters turn up.</p><p> </p><p> DAVE related though, I'm also excited for what you have in store! RDJ is a great face for a revamped DAVE and I'm looking forward to seeing who else Kyle sends your way. I expect to see Eddie Peak soon. Hopefully you provide them with fun characters, although maybe less 'extreme' ones, just like the guys in ELITE!</p>

Well, the initial idea wasn’t mine, but I did help mould it. It was actually PRIDE Koiso who came up with the idea. When PRIDE agreed to sign, I was very surprised. I know he wasn’t a big star in Canada, but he was huge in Japan, one of the top stars for PGHW.</p><p> </p><p> That was actually a key reason he agreed to sign here. PGHW were respectful when releasing him. He had suffered another long-term injury and his contract expired, but they let him know they wouldn’t be re-signing him. He decided, rather than signing for BHOTWG or WLW, or some other Japanese company, that he would rather go abroad and try make a name for himself elsewhere. It’s rare that someone that late into their career can have an opportunity for something so new.</p><p> </p><p> Upon joining us, PRIDE discussed the idea with me of, starting off by reacclimating himself to wrestling as a singles guy, but eventually creating his old stable. The idea for his stable was that he wants to bring Japanese ‘Strong-Style’ wrestling to Canada. Initially it will start out as a group of Japanese talents, but there is no reason it can’t expand to having what would be called ‘gaijin’ wrestlers who have been influenced by the style.</p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="k8F9ZHC.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/k8F9ZHC.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="h0xi5IT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/h0xi5IT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p> Late in the year, we started teaming PRIDE with another new signing, though one that is much younger, in Motoyuki Miyake. The idea was that it’d be a bit of a mentorship program, with Miyake taking falls but PRIDE finding the potential in him. Soon after, the recently retired Diamond Furusawa debuted alongside PRIDE Koiso. PRIDE is an excellent promo in Japan and can cut a very intense promo in his native language but needs to work on his English. Furusawa is Japanese but can help him with that, essentially working as a translator at times. </p><p> </p><p> PRIDE and Furusawa, now being recognised as DIAMOND Furusawa, explained that they would be spending the rest of 2019 scouting for talent, but 2020 would be a huge year for them as they look to, respectfully, make their way to the top. They stated that Japanese wrestling is about honour, tradition and pure skill getting someone to the top. With that, they announced that they saw these aspects in Miyake, who came out and would now be known as HONOUR Miyake, with DIAMOND stating that honour was a particularly strong suit of Miyake’s, according to Koiso.</p><p> </p><p> They announced that the name of their alliance would also be the name that they strive for whilst being with OWA: GLORY. Glory is earned by rising to the top, beating the biggest names and winning titles. Exactly what they intended to do.</p><p> </p><p> I have a lot of plans for GLORY and I respect Koiso’s determination in getting this alliance running. A lot of guys come to me with ideas, but he really stuck with it and did not give up when I was unsure. Plus, he knew that he could use his time in Japan, and his spare time now, to scout other talents that could join the group. It’s an interesting idea that I’m looking forward to exploring.</p>

<p></p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="iz1isE3.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/iz1isE3.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><p> <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">OWA 2019 Year In Review - Part 7: Heavyweight Title</span></strong></p><p> <img alt="jmH61xS.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/jmH61xS.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p> Going in to 2019, Antonio Del Veccio had just begun is first reign as the Heavyweight Champion, having beaten Cali Slick in a great match at Wrestle Showdown at the end of 2018. My plans for Del Veccio were to give him a long run. I wasn’t sure how long, that all depending on him, but I knew I wanted it to be lengthy.</p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="AFKT5GE.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/AFKT5GE.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p> Whilst none of ADV’s defences have been quite as good as his match with Slick in which he won the belt, he has still had a great run. Coming off of his big match at the end of 2018, ADV had turned face holding the belt, showing respect to the man he beat. This was important as, going in to 2019, his first defence would be against Conner Threepwood, something that would hold more relevancy later on.</p><p> </p><p> After his first defence, beating Threepwood in a good main event at Road To Redemption, Cali Slick came out, along with the debuting Lenny Brown, and destroyed ADV, turning heel in the process. The shoes were now on the opposite feet, so to say.</p><p> </p><p> However, at the next event, ADV again beat Slick. Their match was great, but not as good as their previous one. The night ended the same though, ADV on his back, receiving boots from California Strong. Before he could defend against Lenny Brown, ADV faced the challenge of Plat Martin, who had won the Dojo Invitational the month in January. ADV had another good match with Martin, retaining, before beating Brown in the main event of Refuse To Lose 2019.</p><p> </p><p> At the Ed Monton Classic, ADV’s defence was against Ray Snow, who had worked his way up the card. Unfortunately, this match was a little underwhelming but was decent, nonetheless. Fortunately, it wasn’t the main event considering it was tournament night.</p><p> </p><p> ADV’s defence in June at Style And Substance was an odd one. We’re essentially building Style and Substance as one of big yearly shows. I did make a slip in judgement here. I decided to go against the advice of everyone else and put Samoan Machine in the main event of the show, feeling he needed to face a brute. He came out on top, but it was another underwhelming match. Despite this though, the event was enough of a success to lead us to being recognised as a regional company. We had gained enough momentum in the year prior that we had gained a bigger reputation.</p><p> </p><p> After two successive underwhelming title defences, I considered soon ending ADV’s run with the belt. However, I decided that his next challenger would be Mimic, and they put on a good match together, fitting of a main event. ADV’s next defence was against Ekuma, a shorter match but easily the worst of his reign. Ekuma isn’t the wrestler that ADV or many of our other guys are, but he works hard, and I wanted to give him a chance. However, I didn’t have them main event this time either.</p><p> </p><p> Next came the Wrestling Classic. ADV had what was supposed to be another routine title defence, this time against Skip Beau. He retained but the match exceeded expectations, being as good as any Title match since ADV’s initial win over Slick.</p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="46568" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="lj4ZAem.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/lj4ZAem.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> This year, we had eight entrants in the Wrestling Classic event, and for the first time, off of the recent working agreements we made with NYCW and EMLL, it featured our first non-OWA talent in NYCW’s Brett Biggins. Alongside Biggins, the other seven competitors were Conner Threepwood, Sonny Wildside, Cali Slick, Philippe LaGrenier, K-Squared, Riley McManus and Lenny Brown.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> The first match saw Threepwood defeat Wildside in a great match. To provide some context, in a ‘shoot’ interview earlier in the year, Threepwood admitted he liked working the first match of the night as it brings out great performances in him. I decided to use this for his character, putting him in opening matches often and, despite his amazing performances, he would find this offensive and a shot against a man of his calibre. It worked. He had an edge now. Wildside was a guy that had been working his way up the card in a tag team with Remmy Honeyman. He is still young, and I think he has a big future with us. Now isn’t his time but he could well be a future winner of both this tournament and the title.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Brett Biggins was a nice addition for the tournament. I wanted to introduce the aspect of outsiders coming in for the tournament and he provided us with some nice name value and was still talented, fitting the role perfect. In the first round he had a great match with Cali Slick, beating Slick and continuing Slick’s story of struggling as a singles star since uniting with Lenny Brown.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> LaGrenier and K-Squared competed in the worst match of the first round. They didn’t really have chemistry together and it showed. LaGrenier is an ex-champion but has sort of fallen by the wayside a little recently and has been trying to prove why he deserves more recognition. K-Squared has had plenty of success in the tag team division but is trying to prove himself as a singles guy. I’m impressed with him. He is a bit generic but has really outperformed my expectations. LaGrenier came away with the win here though.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> The final first round match saw Riley McManus defeat Lenny Brown. Like K-Squared, Riley has been an amazing tag team wrestler but had begun to show signs of improving as a singles star too. This tournament showed that. Beating Brown was put over as a big upset, and I suppose it was. Brown was suffering as a singles guy just like Slick. That was intentional of course. Nonetheless, McManus would be facing the man that beat his tag team partner in the next round.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Threepwood defeated Biggins in the second round. I never wanted an outsider to go past the semi-finals this year. Their match was okay, but I knew I had wanted Threepwood to advance. Biggins was beaten down by Raw Power after the match though, George Wolfe being angry that he took his space in the tournament, or at least he felt. Beau was just happy to beat someone up.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Riley McManus and Philippe LaGrenier faced off in the other match. I don’t blame anyone for thinking LaGrenier would have won, but it was Riley that came away with the win, avenging his fallen partner, whom LaGrenier had cheated to beat.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="IOP5m7R.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/IOP5m7R.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> The finals saw Conner Threepwood defeat Riley McManus in a good, but potentially underwhelming main event, setting Threepwood up to challenge the champion at Wrestle Showdown. Threepwood had improved a lot recently. He had given himself more edge as a heel and it made him more noticeable. I wouldn’t say I was planning him to main event our biggest show again, but he earned it.</span></p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> The question now was if ADV could retain the belt, or if he would lose it before the big show. That question was soon answered after ADV beat Wolfe and LaGrenier in a couple of good main events, meaning that he would enter Wrestle Showdown 2019 as the champion for a full year. </p><p> </p><p> I don’t necessarily expect their match to be as good as the ADV Vs Slick match from last year but Threepwood has impressed me so much, and surprised me enough times too, that I wouldn’t be surprised if it does. Nonetheless, I can’t wait to witness what they can do.</p>

<p>Man, I've not been commenting as much but I have been keeping up... I just want to say again how truly amazing this dynasty is. It's seriously impressive and immersive. I look forward to it every time I see a new post. I love the latest development with the corporate changes and I wonder if it will have any effect on the narratives and the company.</p><p> </p><p> Also, side note, I really like Talia Quinzel and I'm hoping her injury can be used as a reset for her. Maybe a change to her character or something, but something that allows her to get a push!</p>

He was a confident man, but he wasn’t being big headed in saying that he knew he was one of the most important members of the OWA roster. He came to OWA with a reputation in America thanks to his time in GSW, but he wasn’t known in Canada. With OWA, Cali Strong had to work his way up the card.</p><p> </p><p> He had done that. He had started at the bottom. He had taken his losses and earned his victories. He felt organic and he was not rushed to the top. He was loved by the fans for that. He put on the best performances on any given night on a consistent basis. He had finally won the Heavyweight Title in 2018, defeating the man that very few beat, George Wolfe. He had lost the belt to Antonio Del Veccio at Wrestle Showdown 3. He had enjoyed every minute of it.</p><p> </p><p> At that moment, Terry came out of his trance. His phone was buzzing.</p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="VtxiZx9.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/VtxiZx9.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="46568" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><span style="color:#FF0000;">“Hey Lenny, what’s up!?” It was Lenny Brown. Lenny had debuted in January. He had signed for OWA in 2018 but they held off on his debut. At the ironically named ‘Road To Redemption’ show, Slick cheated to beat Philippe LaGrenier and become the new number one contender, despite being a good guy. The reason why had been revealed later after ADV retained his title against Conner Threepwood, and Slick had approached his nemesis. Lenny Brown attacked out of nowhere, Slick helped him and the two were now the hottest heels in OWA.</span><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> “Oh, nothin’ man. I was just sat here thinking about the year I’ve had -we’ve had-, and I thought I’d give you a call and thank you for the chance. When I got released from SWF, I wasn’t sure what would happen. No one came calling all year. NYCW finally signed me and then OWA came calling. Ed told me man. He told me that you were the one who recommended be to him. You were the champ, yet you were willing to help me out and didn’t mind dropping your title to start what we have going. You’re a real dude.”</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> It was true, Ed wanted Slick to hold the title for a bit longer. He would likely have still lost the belt to ADV, but at a later date. Terry Roundtree, not Cali Slick, had gone to Ed Monton and told him that Lenny Brown was looking for another opportunity and had pitched the idea of them being a unit. Ed liked the idea and made the call for him to drop the belt at the big show.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> “Funnily enough, I was sat here thinking about our year too. It’s been wild man. Look, we’re both from California and couldn’t see a talented dude like you sitting around doing nothing. I believe in what we are doing at OWA and it didn’t take much convincing for Ed to know you could have a part in that. Besides, I like being a bad guy.”</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> That was also true. Terry was great as a good guy. The fans loved him, and he loved the fans. However, the truth in wrestling is that being a bad guy was more fun.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> “We really helped Antonio out too. He defended his title against you, Slick. Then I got my chance at the belt and he did the same. He overcame us both separately, but we were still strong as a unit. That’s what I want right now. We can both have our chance as singles guys again but what we have as a tag team right now is great, brother.”</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Terry smiled. He knew Lenny before OWA, enough to bat for him, but they had really gotten close this last year. They were a unit in and out of the ring. There first match as a team was against Tecnicos and it was a great match. They immediately hit it off as a team and it was clear the OWA struck gold.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> They lost once, against Mix And Mask to make them look strong after they won the Ed Monton Classic, but every match they had was great. Their second match against Mix And Mask, where they got their win back, and their match against The Brit-Can Express, were the best matches OWA had put on all year. They held wins over Pretty Perfect, who are now the champions, and have become a real staple of the tag division.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> “I get you man. I’m happy that Ed has stuck with the story I pitched to him. Despite my time as champion, now we are together as a team, we are golden when teaming but are struggling when separate. There are a lot of ways we can take this but I’m sure we will knock it out of the park.”</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> “I agree man. Anyway, I best get going. Enjoy your night and I’ll see you at Wrestle Showdown!” With that, the phone call was over.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p></div></blockquote><p> Half way through the year, OWA gave them Streetz as a manager. He is Canadian but he is surprisingly good at coming across as if he is from California. They don’t need help on the mic but Streetz adds a lot to their act. 2020 could be a huge year for California Strong and Terry knew that. He also knew that, despite Lenny telling him to enjoy his night, he was ready for some sleep. He needed to be up early tomorrow and start training at the OWA Dojo in preparation for Wrestle Showdown. California Strong have promised to make a big impact.</p>

At the end of 2018, we lost Avalanche Takano, meaning one of our core teams, that saw him tag with Angel Of Mercy, was gone. In May, Sterling Whitlock signed with PGHW and that meant another one of our core teams was over. It was important for us to create new teams to join our pre-existing ones, as we needed to increase the ranks.</p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="bPAX3lJ.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/bPAX3lJ.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="lREEJ86.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/lREEJ86.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="NTWyjQM.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/NTWyjQM.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p> We became very fortunate, really. With Avalanche gone, it left Angel and American Elemental, and Kristabel Plum, alone. I decided to just stick Angel and American Elemental in a tag match together in January, just as a temporary option whilst I figured out my plans for them. What happened was magic. In the same way that Avalanche and Angel had natural excellent chemistry, so did Angel and Elemental. Mix and Mask was born.</p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="gaWe9c1.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/gaWe9c1.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="VtxiZx9.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/VtxiZx9.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p> On top of that, Lenny Brown debuted at the beginning of the year alongside Cali Slick. A couple months into the year, they teamed together for the first time and the results were great. The two had great chemistry together and just understood how to work together. They announced that, due to their roots, they would go by the name ‘California Strong’. Whilst both are top singles guys, and are not a primary tag team, they will still have an important role to play.</p><p> </p><p> One thing to note regarding California Strong is that our two best matches of 2019, not including any that may take place at Wrestle Showdown, involved California Strong. The first saw them defeat Mix And Mask in July, whilst the second saw a surprisingly great match that just beat out the first one, with them defeating The Brit-Can Express.</p><p> </p><p> Crushing Edge, Extreme Dream, Honey Wild, MC Squared, Pretty Perfect, Raw Power, Real Chemistry, Tecnicos and The Brit-Can Express filled out the remainder of our tag team core, though the team of Motoyuki Miyake and PRIDE Koiso was later created and added further depth.</p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="7ZX7eFn.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/7ZX7eFn.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="Yy9Fmux.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Yy9Fmux.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p> Coming in to the new year, Raw Power, the team of George Wolfe and Skip Beau, were the Tag Team Champions, casting an enormous shadow over the division. The two brutes successfully defended their titles against Big And Brutal, Jebediah and Ekuma, and Honey Wild, Remmy Honeyman and Sonny Wildside.</p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="89gnwFM.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/89gnwFM.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="rNdVnEz.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/rNdVnEz.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p> In March, they faced off against two teams in Mix and Mask & Extreme Dream, Plat Martin and Thierry Leclerc, and new tag team champions were crowned. Despite dominating, Raw Power became overzealous and the two other teams worked together to take them out of the match. This opportunity lead Plat and Thierry to take advantage and become the new Tag Team champions. This was a huge moment for the two, being the first dojo graduates to win a title in OWA.</p><p> </p><p> However, winning the title in March, they had the Ed Monton Classic the following month which would crown future challengers to their titles. During the event, three teams that didn’t find a place in the tournament would challenge for the belts instead. Despite this, Extreme Dream retained over Tecnicos, The Brit-Can Express and the team of Auriville Martel and Rollan Perry.</p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="46568" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"><p><strong>Ed Monton Classic</strong></p><p> <img alt="fBpuvsJ.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/fBpuvsJ.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Unlike last year, of course, the eight teams competing in the Ed Monton Classic would not also be competing for the titles. The eight teams to compete would be Crushing Edge, Honey Wild, MC Squared, The Bruisers, Raw Power, Big And Brutal, Mix And Mask & Real Chemistry.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> In 2018, the finalists were MC Squared and Real Chemistry. With MC Squared, we needed new Tag Champions and some solidarity due to the unavailability of other teams, and we got that in them. With Real Chemistry, I felt it was important to push them as a credible team. They weren’t underdogs, and they had cheated to get to the finals, but it would solidify them as a threat. However, we failed to do anything with their momentum, and they fell back down the ranks.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> This year, the intention was for two up-and-coming teams who had yet to win the titles, yet were already threats, to make it to the finals. Crushing Edge, MC Squared, Raw Power and Mix And Mask all won their first round matches to get to the semi-finals. Of those teams, perhaps the four favourites, Mix and Mask and Crushing Edge had yet to win the belts, and therefore found themselves making it to the finals.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> With Extreme Dream holding the titles, and having some history with Mix And Mask, the decision was to give the masked duo the win and send them Extreme Dream’s way. It was a huge moment for the two, particularly for Angel Of Mercy who had previously won the titles with Avalanche but immediately had to drop the titles due to injury. The two teams had a great match in the finals and really helped raise the prestige of the tournament.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="ezrGY8l.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/ezrGY8l.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="mFERzdp.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/mFERzdp.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> For Crushing Edge, they were dominant in the tournament, which was impressive considering Raw Power and Big And Brutal were involved, and they became bigger stars due to this. They play a big part in my future plans.</span></p></div></blockquote><p> Mix And Mask would get their title shot at the June event, Style And Substance 2019, an event that has become one of our big yearly shows. In May, though, Extreme Dream faced Pretty Perfect, retaining the belts in another great match. When it came time for Mix And Mask to have their shot, the two teams had a very good competitive match but the champions ultimately prevailed.</p><p> </p><p> Extreme Dream would retain their belts in the months following, their win over The Brit-Can Express in September officially giving them the honour of most title defences so far. During that reign, they defeated Pretty Perfect again, as well as Tecnicos. </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="fs2JEm6.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/fs2JEm6.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="3VIqrlK.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/3VIqrlK.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p> It was Pretty Perfect that would get a third shot, however, in October. The team of Princeton Royce and Raphael had formed at the end of 2018. They were the plucky underdogs. The pretty duo that had the fans behind them. Having lost twice already, they knew this would be their last chance for a while.</p><p> </p><p> In a gruelling but great match, they prevailed over Extreme Dream, ending their record reign and picking up the titles for themselves. I’m not sure what I expect from them as champions. I don’t know if they will have a short reign or a long one like Extreme Dream. However, if their match with Extreme Dream and their following defence in November against Crushing Edge is anything to go by, the two will have a run filled with solid matches.</p>

I discussed it with him, and we agreed he would return to his Hell Monkey gimmick, having been Reaver in WLW and BHOTWG. I had plans for him and that character. I decided to pair him with Steampunk Simon as an ‘odd bunch’ duo. They worked a couple events together before moving to the ‘B’ brand. Hopefully they can develop as a team and John can help Simon.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Clark Alexander</span></span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span><img alt="4B92hOs.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/4B92hOs.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Honestly, Clark was a guy I have looked at signing since the start of this promotion. He could have easily played a similar role to Conner Threepwood early on. He isn’t a stand out wrestler, at least not now, but he had a role to play and I was sure he could do it. However, one thing or another led to me holding off on signing. The start of the roster separation gave me the opportunity to sign him up to work with the dojo guys and he has done great in that role.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Barry Griffin & Henry Bennett</span></span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span><img alt="JFdxlU3.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/JFdxlU3.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="tMPUZp8.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/tMPUZp8.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> I decided to sign Griffin and Bennett to give us an experienced tag team to help develop the younger tag teams on our ‘B’ brand. They are the bitter, old veterans and play their roles great. </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Alan Parent</span></span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span><img alt="6irpljJ.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/6irpljJ.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Alan Parent sort of plays a middle ground role in the ‘B’ brand. He is a veteran who has over 15 years of experience in 4c and CGC, and therefore can help the younger guys. However, at the same time, he is still someone that could provide for us on a bigger scale and, due to that, is someone that, if he shows me a reason to, could move to the main roster and expand his notoriety.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Jerry Martin</span></span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span><img alt="ShttXzz.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/ShttXzz.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Martin was a part of our initial roster but didn’t have a lot to do for us and left us at the end of 2017. I decided to rehire him in the middle of this year and place him on the ‘B’ brand. Like Parent, he is someone who could end up playing a bigger role for us but for now, he will stay where he is.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Human Arsenal</span></span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span><img alt="rcjeXV7.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/rcjeXV7.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> John Anderson is one of the most valuable signings we have made. Full stop. He is an experienced and skilled veteran that could fit right in at the top of our card, but he specifically requested that he get to work with the younger guys and pass his skills and knowledge on to the next stars. Is he as good as he once was? No. But can he be an important figure for us? Yes.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Eddie Chandler</span></span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span><img alt="z0WOv8V.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/z0WOv8V.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Eddie Chandler is very similar to Arsenal. His time in CGC and TCW made him a legitimate star and he remains amongst our most popular guys. However, he also comes to us to work with the dojo guys. He is also probably our best guy on the microphone and has been doing promos with the younger guys on our shows to help them improve. You’d think he’d outshine them, but he really tries to guide them along.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Jonnie Bruce</span></span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span><img alt="FAtdUo9.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/FAtdUo9.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Jonnie Bruce is a guy we have worked with multiple time on one-off appearances over the years. He came into wrestling late, having been a football star until injuries cut his career short. Now 37-years old, he has been a pro for three years and is already as popular as anyone on our roster. He is with the ‘B’ brand for now, just to get some more experience, but he will likely end up moving to our main shows by the end of 2020.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Morgan Malone</span></span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span><img alt="FgoD0of.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/FgoD0of.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Morgan Malone is another young Canadian that has been out of employment since mid 2018 after leaving 4C. I decided to let him work with the ‘B’ brand as he can still do with some work but he should have a good future with us as he is already impressive in the ring.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Maslin Austin</span></span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span><img alt="TfrsrVW.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/TfrsrVW.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Austin is a masked wrestler who came through the ranks of NOTBPW’s House of Stone. He has impeccable basics and knows how to sell, most likely having been taught most of his skills by Dan Stone Jr, who considers him his protégé. He is again working with the ‘B’ brand but if he lives up to the House of Stone reputation, he’ll be improving in no time.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Dragon Del Arco Iris Jr</span></span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span><img alt="MneercZ.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/MneercZ.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Iris Jr is 34 years old, coming from Mexico. I’m not entirely sure if I expect a lot out of him but I felt he had a place with us. Currently, he is going to be trying to build up a reputation in Canada whilst competing on the ‘B’ brand.</span></p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><strong>Main Signings</strong></p><p> <span style="text-decoration:underline;">Lenny Brown</span></p><p> <img alt="VtxiZx9.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/VtxiZx9.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p> The first signing I made this year -well technically I signed him at the end of the year but held his debut off until January- was perhaps one of the biggest in Lenny Brown. Lenny Brown left SWF at the beginning of 2018. He took some time off before signing for NYCW in October, then with us in December. He has played a large roll on our roster, which I will get in to more another time, and has played his part in some great matches.</p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Black Flash</span></p><p> <img alt="q2TntuT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/q2TntuT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p> I have felt the need to promote talents from abroad in OWA. Black Flash became the first Australian to sign with us, when he signed at the beginning of the year. He hasn’t played a big role for us yet, but I want to give him a chance in Canada and hope he can improve with us as he is a talented guy.</p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Fuyuhiko Wakabayashi</span></p><p> <img alt="LZcxodw.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/LZcxodw.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p> Fuyuhiko is another guy that had been based in Australia, though he is Japanese. He has worked shows with PGHW and, despite having put on a bit of weight, has potential to be a great wrestler. He hasn’t done much for us yet but has been working with our main guys. He is someone I hope can develop because he has incredible stamina and good be involved in some epic matches.</p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="text-decoration:underline;">PRIDE Koiso</span></p><p> <img alt="v0wlnrb.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/v0wlnrb.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p> He may not be a big name in Canda but PRIDE Koiso was a huge signing for us, in my opinion. He is a legitimate star in Japan. He won the Elite Series four times, the Elite Tag Team Series six times, won a few minor titles and had two runs with the Glory Crown Title for PGHW. A number of huge injuries, long lay-offs and his advancing age meant he lost steps as a wrestler and PGHW allowed his contract to end. He may be 43 and not the wrestler he once was, but he was willing to come in and wrestle for us and I was not going to turn the opportunity down. Providing he can stay fit; we have some big plans for him.</p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Samoan Machine</span></p><p> <img alt="ddTgtkP.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/ddTgtkP.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p> Bali, Samoan Machine’s real name, is a tough dude. He is another veteran we brought in and decided to put with the main guys. He hasn’t been amazing in the ring, but we value what he can do quite heavily. I’ve considered putting him with the ‘B’ brand, but I think I might look to find him a partner and put him in the tag division. I have always wanted a stable of Samoans.</p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Streetz</span></p><p> <img alt="mqX2dF7.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/mqX2dF7.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p> I decided in 2019 to hire some more managers to help out some of our guys on the mic. Though in saying that, Streetz has been paired with Lenny Brown and Cali Slick, and they don’t really need the help. However, he does help heir act. Maybe he will move on to another role with someone else one day but for now, he is with California Strong.</p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Henry Lee</span></p><p> <img alt="D6UgQvf.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/D6UgQvf.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p> As a wrestler in DAVE, Henry Lee was not very good. He could brawl and take big bumps, and that got him over, but that is about it. However, he retired and now works as a manager. Due to his history as an extremist, it seemed like a good opportunity to pair him up with Plat Martin and Theirry Leclerc, who are our local extremists. They’ve worked well together throughout the year and adds a lot to their act.</p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Marcel LeFleur</span></p><p> <img alt="dNDk13y.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/dNDk13y.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p> LeFleur is a guy that really could become a big star in Canada and I’m surprised NOTBPW haven’t signed him back up yet after letting him get some experience with ACPW. He is only 24 and is a great wrestler already, managing to combine good brawling, technical and high-flying skills. He is Duane Stone’s protégé and you can see the impact he has had on Marcel. I have him with our main guys and really believe he can become a star for us.</p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Motoyuki Miyake</span></p><p> <img alt="k8F9ZHC.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/k8F9ZHC.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p> Miyake is a young Japanese guy that I wanted to pick up, having lost Avalanche Takano at the beginning of the year. At the end of the year, he joined an alliance that looks to have a big impact on our company going in to 2020. However, I will get in to that at a later date. For now, Miyake looks to continue to craft his skills and hopefully will have a similar impact to Takano.</p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Roderick Remus</span></p><p> <img alt="9azaofZ.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/9azaofZ.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p> Roderick Remus is a young man who has been crafting his skills in MAW in America and is proving to be a bit of a diamond in the rough. He became available and I decided that I would try to further craft that diamond. Remus is a very talented young man and could have a future in tag or singles action. He is mixing it with my main group of guys and could work his way up the card in 2020 if all goes to plan.</p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Diamond Furusawa</span></p><p> <img alt="h0xi5IT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/h0xi5IT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p> Furusawa retired as an in-ring wrestler in May and we signed him up as a manager in November, to manage the team of PRIDE Koiso and Motoyuki Miyake. We will get into that more in the future. </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><strong>Those who left</strong></p></div><p></p><p></p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Katie Cameron</span></span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span><img alt="bL91uJP.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/bL91uJP.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> I won’t lie. I slipped up. Katie Cameron had been working well for us as the manager for MC Squared but I was looking at her leaving them, as they don’t need her anymore, and putting her with someone else. However, her contract came up earlier this year and I neglected to offer her a new one. I will look to re-sign her eventually, I’m sure.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Sterling Whitlock</span></span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span><img alt="WRGQFIC.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/WRGQFIC.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> The main loss of ours this year was definitely Sterling Whitlock. He must have really impressed on his tours with PGHW as they offered him a full-time contract, which he understandably accepted. This meant that him and Ray Snow were to split. Unfortunately, he has now been released by PGHW as they looked to trim the roster, so there is a chance we look at hiring him again if he is willing. However, I am enjoying Ray Snow as a singles star.</span></p>

<p></p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="iz1isE3.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/iz1isE3.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><p> <span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>OWA 2019 Year In Review - Part 3: Roster Split</strong></span></p><p> <img alt="nKzkCqH.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/nKzkCqH.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p></div><p></p><p></p><p> </p><p> At the beginning of the year, we began doing two shows a month. These extra shows were going well. They were getting our name out there more and earning us some extra revenue. We were signing more and more guys and they couldn’t all appear on one show, so this gave us a chance to split the roster a little. Naturally, an extra show gave us a chance to showcase our dojo guys a bit more on one of the shows.</p><p> </p><p> In May, we decided that we would focus the first show of each month on our dojo guys. So, the decision was made to, essentially, split our roster.</p><p> </p><p> The idea was that the first show of each month would showcase our younger guys who were still improving, putting them in the ring against each other and some chosen veterans such as Lee Bennett and Bryan Holmes. This meant that any wrestler on those shows would not appear on the second show of the month, meaning that we could focus more on our main core of talent for that show. </p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="89gnwFM.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/89gnwFM.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="VhdPSus.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/VhdPSus.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="rNdVnEz.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/rNdVnEz.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p> The only three dojo guys to make it on to the main shows were Plat Martin, Generico and Thierry Leclerc. I felt that those three had done enough to make it to the main shows. Plat and Thierry were a great tag team, and Plat in particular could break out on his own at any time. Generico had been with us a long time and his tag team with Lobo Blanco was improving.</p><p> </p><p> Up until this point, I had been the only road agent in the company. I decided that I would continue that role on the main shows but our ‘B’ show, I call it that, but it is a little degrading to the guys on the show, would need someone new. I would still be there for the shows behind the scenes, and help when needed, but I decided to hire someone else.</p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="hk7z4Je.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/hk7z4Je.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p> This is where R.K. Hayes comes in. Hayes spent a long time with NOTBPW, having been an one-time Canadian Champion for them, and really crafted a reputation for himself as one of the toughest guys in wrestling but also one of the most trusted. He really was a good guy and would help in the locker room too. I’ve long been a fan of him, and I trust him to craft great matches with our guys.</p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="hMp8dam.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/hMp8dam.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="SJInsAQ.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/SJInsAQ.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p> Nat Whitehouse and Eve Grunge do a brilliant job on our main shows, and Danny Rushmore has been doing a good job alongside them whilst he has been with us. However, I decided that the new show gave us an opportunity to give Rushmore a leading role and reduce the announce tables back to two people. I needed a play-by-play announcer to partner him and decided to sign Rock Downpour. Some would argue that Downpour is already a better announcer than Whitehouse, but I like what we have him Whitehouse and Grunge, so Downpour is perfect to partner Rushmore now that he is no longer with NYCW. It worked out as Downpour and Rushmore have good chemistry together.</p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="xAoCZFh.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/xAoCZFh.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p> Finally, to fill out the non-wrestler roles, Matthew White was signed as our referee for the second shows. Again, many consider him to be a better referee than Jez McArthuer, but I don’t want to shift the guys around.</p><p> </p><p> I did make multiple in-ring signings, mostly veterans, to work alongside our youngsters and provide fans with recognisable names, but I shall get into those another time. All our dojo guys that I didn’t name earlier moved to the brand and Lee Bennett, Bryan Holmes and Teddy Powell moved there too to work alongside the young ones. Three great teachers if you ask me, particularly since Powell has been helping the other two a lot at the dojo, so he knows the guys. Powell hasn’t been hired in any official role, he just enjoys the craft and has offered to help out as much as he can. Maybe I’ll give him a job there in the future.</p><p> </p><p> For now, the show does not have a title, it is just about the guys competing and learning, but one day I may change that.</p>

I wanted to honour his contribution to the wrestling world, but also our company. He is a very humble man. He doesn’t want these accolades or to be recognised as anything more than the badass veteran he plays but I don’t care.</p><p> </p><p> He is our head trainer of the dojo and puts in as much effort for this company as anyone does, including myself.</p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="ir1pPfP.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/ir1pPfP.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p> I decided to create the Lee Bennett’s Dojo Invitational as an extra event in January of each year. The idea behind the competition was for eight of the top dojo graduates to go at it, with one coming out on top. It wouldn’t matter this year, as it was our first, but in future years, anyone who has already won the tournament will not be eligible again. Of course, only dojo graduates would qualify for the tournament. There would be one more rule to be introduced alongside something that happened midway through the year, but I’ll talk about that another time.</p><p> </p><p> So, the eight men I chose for the inaugural tournament would be: Thierry Leclerc; Corvin Lefevre; Steampunk Simon; Steven Fly; Plat Martin; Darryl Robinson; Generico and Searlas Gagne. Of all of our graduates so far, these were the eight that had probably impressed the most.</p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="46568" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="89gnwFM.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/89gnwFM.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="rNdVnEz.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/rNdVnEz.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Thierry and Plat had been an awesome tag team for us and, despite being heels, were becoming big favourites for our fans. Their extremist gimmicks helped that. In particular, Plat had really been putting in impressive performances and was a heavy favourite for the tournament.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="pRkWRIE.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/pRkWRIE.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Corvin Lefevre was interesting as he is one of our masked wrestlers. He is a big guy. Usually masked wrestlers are a bit smaller but not him. He is really athletic and powerful and is a great brawler. Very menacing too. It’s impressive that he can be so menacing behind a mask, really.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="m0acAWb.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/m0acAWb.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Steampunk Simon was one of our original graduates. He’s been progressing well and is a good character guy. A lot of our guys like to work with him as he is so safe in the ring and has a great grasp on the basic. Lee pushed for him to be included, with him being his protégé, but I didn’t need convincing really. I’m a fan of Simon, I think he’s got a good future.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="7sfOOYJ.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/7sfOOYJ.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Steven Fly is another Bennett protégé and is also his tag team partner. He is another good brawler and someone who has a lot of potential. I want to start showcasing his abilities more, considering his current story is that he is the fall guy of their team.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="YvSbTwb.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YvSbTwb.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Darryl Robinson is another guy I think shows a lot of promise. I’m been showcasing him a bit as a loner. One man and his bike. He’s a big guy and is an excellent brawler, amongst our best. He could be a winner of the tournament one day, definitely.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="VhdPSus.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/VhdPSus.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Generico, alongside Plat and Simon, was amongst our initial graduates. He has been performing alongside Loco Blanco in the tag team division for alongside. The two have been good but unspectacular. He is a good wrestler though, but as his name suggests he is a bit on the generic side.</span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> </span></p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="ir1Vr8M.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/ir1Vr8M.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#FF0000;"> Searlas Gagne was the final participant. A Bryan Holmes protégé. He has been good for us so far and shows plenty of potential. I wasn’t sure about putting him in this tournament, but Holmes convinced me.</span></p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> Ultimately, Plat, Simon, Generico and Thierry advanced from the first rounds, with Plat and Simon making it to the finals. There was only ever going to be one winner though.</p><p> </p><p> Plat was our first graduate. Alongside Thierry he has been amazing in our tag division and has actually developed into being one of our best and most consistent performers. His chemistry with Cali Slick is immense and the two could go on to have a classic one day. For now, he was the winner of our first Dojo Invitational and earned a title shot against the champion, Antonio Del Veccio.</p><p> </p><p> He did of course go on to lose that match, but it was one of his best matches so far. For him, Generico, and Thierry, this would be the only time they’d compete in the tournament though, as all three had bigger plans that came into place throughout the year.</p>

OWA 2019 Year In Review - Part 1: Dojo Graduates It is time again to review the new graduates that have come up from our dojo and begun to make their way on to our shows. We didn’t have as many this year, but I have tasked Lee and Bryan to only promote the ones who truly deserve it. Joe Terkay Joe Terkay, or Gentleman Joe Terkay, was our next graduate. He has decent wrestling skills and has effectively shown them so far. I am impressed with his desire, to be honest. He graduated with an idea of a character he’d like to play, which is where ‘Gentleman’ came from. Honestly though, past this he has quite a nuisance backstage. His attitude is awful, and he seems to be willing to step on anyone to achieve. Hopefully we can work on that as he has potential, but I really don’t want negative influences around backstage. Tibault Bailey Tibault is an excellent technician. The idea of his character is that no one knows where he comes from, or how he got as good as he has when he is so young. He’s another positive influence backstage and I have considered booking a story revolving around him and Iven Bailey actually being relatives. Iven wears a mask, but he isn’t against taking it off and that could be the crux of the story. Who knows? Both have time to develop first, though. Tibault has already had a great match with Irwin Gutmann and I am really excited to see where this kid goes. We can always use great wrestlers.

Really enjoy your new format for the news, feels like you're developing the world a bit too, showing some news from the alliance and what not. Good stuff! Also, what a PPV Christmas Chaos was!

I think you should introduce developmental feds into the game for the bigger companies. You should stutter them though, don't make them all at the same/similar times. Too much would happen. Maybe you could turn it all into a story, something like them recognising CWL's growing influence and needing a dev brand to help etc.

Interesting to see Anderson and Holly in singles competition a little, wonder if they'll look for some singles success too now. Interested in Badell, I know he list this time but he's getting a decent push and plenty of tv time.

<p>I have Uni deadlines in for Tuesday next week but after that I will be completely uni free and have more time to work on this without feeling guilty not doing uni work!</p><p> </p><p> For now, until next week, the chances of there being any updates along the way are very slim but hopefully I should be back to this in a weeks time! See you then!</p>
