I missed it. There is no thrill for someone like me that feels quite like wrestling. Once upon a time I was a top star in Canada in the DeColt run Canadian Golden Combat (CGC) promotion. A company that, in a modern era, just does not live up to the standards it once held. Canada is Stone country now. I don’t dislike the Stones, and I obviously don’t dislike the DeColts, but I wasn’t getting my fix for wrestling by watching either company. That’s where Ontario Wrestling Association comes in.
It’s a boring name, I know. ‘Wrestling Association’. Truth is, it sounds stupid, but I didn’t want a flashy name. If I was going to start a wrestling promotion, if we were known for anything, I wanted it to be for our product. I’m a fan of old school wrestling. Bad guys vs good guys. Stories. None of this 'sports entertainment' crap that those American companies, or 21CW, or seemingly every other god damn promotion promotes. It’s what I knew when I wrestled, and it’s what I wanted to focus on in my own company. If I were to be critical of myself, I’d admit that maybe I should open my mind up to modern wrestling as it has passed me by, but honestly, I truthfully think that old school wrestling has its place in modern wrestling. I hope to provide that.
Fortunately for myself, being considered a legend in Canadian wrestling, I had amassed a decent sum of money and, despite OWA only being considered a local promotion, it allowed me to invest a nice quantity of money into my promotion straight away, and it allowed me to start my own wrestling dojo, OWA Dojo – yes, I know, another simple and bland name –, to accompany my promotion, as I truthfully wanted our own stars to be at the heart of the promotion, even though they might not always be the champion. I never want someone to walk into our company and just be made ‘the guy’, but if we create a wrestler in our dojo, mould them into someone who can be a valuable contribution to our company and the world of wrestling as a whole, then we can make an identity out of that.
What makes me truly happy is that my friend, and partner from the CGC days, Jon Jetson could join me for this. Is he the nicest guy ever? No, but he’s also not the worst. He knows his place in the history of wrestling and he demands a certain level of respect because of it. He, and I, might not be the most well-known figures across the world, but our names commanded a certain level of respect within Canada. When he finally retired last year, he started to promote some small shows in Canada and, just like myself, produces wrestling matches when our input is needed. Bringing him in though, I wasn’t looking for a road agent. I could do that as long as the company is small. With Jon, I wanted him to be my colour commentator. No matter what though, I just wanted my friend to be a part of what I’m starting here, and I hope he appreciates that. Plus, he’ll be the head trainer at the OWA dojo in the meantime, so I’m sure he’ll be kept busy.
So I, Ed Monton, with my friend Jon Jetson, am seeking a new thrill. I’ve been the wrestler. I’ve been a star. But now I get the chance to see others do that. Create new stars. Promote new wrestlers. Entertain an audience of wrestling fans who, like me, might want some old school wrestling to fit into this new, modern school of thought. Big bad guys. Tough underdogs who rise to the top. Nefarious villains who cheat to win. Simple storytelling but with effective conclusions. All I need is a roster of wrestlers who fit those moulds; those ideals.
First things first, I want to thank smw88 for whipping up a logo for me to use for this diary and in my game!There will be no particular schedule with this save but I hope to be quite regular. The plan is, for now, to do yearly reviews of our product and what is happening with OWA. After each year review, I may post a few extra pieces that discuss things going on in my save, either in my company or in the entire game, that didn't quite fit within the yearly review.
Once I get weekly television, if I get to that point, I may do different styles of write-ups.
If anyone has any comments, advice or wants to help out in any way, maybe even with some fancy graphics for Ed Monton or some title belts that I so desperately need , then let me know! I am always open to advice and constructive criticism. Though, be warned, my yearly reviews will be quite text heavy.
Thank you everyone, hopefully you enjoy this, and I stick to it!

<p>Some excellent narratives yet again.</p><p> </p><p>
The Ash/Matty mid-match one was very interesting and is some nice incite into your company's greatest match.</p><p> </p><p>
As Leion said, Jeffrey's narrative has made me route for him more now so I'm hoping for a big future for him, though I had already expected that.</p><p> </p><p>
I'm happy you took the opportunity to do a Stone family narrative whilst you had the chance, and it was a good spin on it all.</p>
-
<p>Interesting to see Winchester and Revell back, seems you'll be keeping the Bulldogs away from the main event even longer!</p><p> </p><p>
Somewhat surprised to see Slick lose the belt already, especially since you said you had planned to give him the belt for a long time, but I am interested to see where it goes. Maybe he gets it back.</p><p> </p><p>
Kind of want to see you eventually have a Quine Vs Strong Vs Quinzell match.</p><p> </p><p>
Shame about Primus and Henry having no chemistry but as everyone has said, maybe its a blessing in disguise and they can head to the main event. I think it'll be Henry's time soon, he'll be the next champ.</p><p> </p><p>
If this is the king of match Campbell is going to have going forward for you, well done!</p><p> </p><p>
Interested to see these three new guys eventually, some good potential there as usual.</p><p> </p><p>
I would personally like to see this turn into a story about the Sexy Dojo now but I don't see that happening. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/wink.png.686f06e511ee1fbf6bdc7d82f6831e53.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

I like the development overview being from Joel's POV. Makes sense and gives some depth to Joel, don't want to forget about him! Some potentially good guys you looked at.
-
<p>Slick winning caught me off guard but I loved it.</p><p> </p><p>
Also, big win for Storm Spillane there against KC Glenn. I'm liking these upsets.</p>
-
This layout of this so far is brilliant, and high effort! Adding the WWE graphics adds a lot of character and uniqueness to this.
Also, after each of three shows, its clear you're trying to give each show its own personality reminiscent of the actual three products. Raw with the big personalities, big physical wrestlers etc. WCW with he cruiserweight style it made famous in the US, and it has a lot of fan favourite, IWC favourite wrestlers. ECW with its unique wrestlers, giving opportunities to newer stars, every wrestler has quite a rough, edgy feel to them. Awesome. Can't wait for more!
-
Yeah when I was writing my last comment, I realised that it makes sense within the story you're telling that you sign positive people who want to be there etc.
Though you have now peaked my interest with this tease of what we can look forward to!
Well I mean KC for example. I obviously recognise in game he is an incredible young wrestler etc, but now when I see him in my games, I think he has an identifiable character similar to the one you've pushed in your story. Riley too. I wouldn't see him as anything other than a reliable midcard/tag team guy in my games, but now I can see him as a legitimate top guy for a smaller company, and I see him as having this rough, do what needs to be done, attitude and as a locker room leader.
-
I agree, the narratives in this dynasty are exceptional. It really helps make characters more endearing and relatable. I do wish there were some characters who were just POS but at the same time, if I were you, I'd probably try and avoid signing those kind of people in the first place. Plus, this helps push the fact that the locker room is harmonious and its a place everyone wants to be.
To be honest, these narrative even change the way I look at the characters in my own game too.
-
<p>I think Talia Quinzel is 100% gonna be a star for you. She is another woman I would build a division around. </p><p> </p><p>
The only release that comes as a little surprise to me is Andrew Harper as he seemed to be doing a bit with you, but even then I'm not that surprised.</p><p> </p><p>
Is Kikkawa a freelancer? Maybe he could have a one off match in CWL?</p><p> </p><p>
Interested in this major signing. I don't have a clue who it could be but I'm going to throw a random name out there just incase... Aaron Andrews? Dunno if he's big enough but still.</p><p> </p><p>
As for the new signings profiles, I hope you continue to do them as you signs regens. It gives them some character and gives us something to look forward to in the future. Caron seems promising in particular.</p>
-
<p>Well. If this is going to be what we get with every monthly card, I'm going to love it. That poster is amazing! Im hoping to see a main event one time of like Ox vs. some really small guy, just so we can see the difference in their muscularity and size haha!</p><p> </p><p>
North American Heavyweight Championship: <strong>Spencer Spade</strong> vs. Matty Faith © - I think he wins it back and moves on for now</p><p>
North American Tag Team Championship: Gangsta Nation vs <strong>The Keith Brothers ©</strong></p><p>
United States Championship: Dan Stone Jr. vs. <strong>David Stone ©</strong></p><p>
North American Women's Championship: <strong>Jaime Quine</strong> vs. Alicia Strong © - I like Quine, I'd build my division around her personally. Nothing against Strong of course, she probably actually makes more sense.</p><p>
World Six Man Championship: <strong>Bowen Services </strong>vs. Diaz Family ©</p><p>
Grudge Match: <strong>Georgia Bulldogs</strong> vs. Devil's Rejects</p><p>
World Jr. Heavyweight Championship: Sonny Wildside vs. <strong>James Adams ©</strong></p>

Can't necessarily say that any of the guys you released would have amounted to much so I can't say I am particularly shocked. Think it would be cool one time to get a narrative from someone who finds out they're being released... not that I keep requesting narratives or anything haha. Otherwise, I'm enjoying seeing Xavi Ferrera get a push, has a very unique look.
-
<p>Had a feeling Guide and Scout wouldn't be around too much longer, they were good for putting over others whilst they lasted! Maybe it would have been nice to see them have one short run with one of the tag team belts but maybe it was better to focus on the younger teams like you have.</p><p> </p><p>
I'm hoping to see a decent push for Brisbane Devil and King Malietoa on their return, they're a duo that could be a backbone of your tag team division imo.</p><p> </p><p>
Great signings in Malloy and Spillane! They are a fantastic team and no doubt will be tag team champions soon enough, haha. Also glad to see Wildside back, he should be a good addition to the midcard.</p><p> </p><p>
Shame about Stash, he had a unique look, but can't say I am surprised haha.</p>

He's suffered a couple of injuries over the past seven years, he's in his late forties, and what not, plus then when The Fallen won they got to beat a legendary tag team in the finals after beating two other international teams -- APW and PGHW's top teams respectively -- and the Georgia Bulldogs as well.

-
Loved both shows. The new layout looks brilliant! I think it was the right move for The Fallen to go over, it seemed necessary to me. Surprise to see the flying stones go to the end but it was cool to see. Looking forward to whats next, I assume a narrative or two!
-
Happy to see a new update to this. Piper's story is an interesting one here. Will we see similar things for the other mightily popular stars?
-
<p>Loved the Henry narrative, seems like the exact type of mindset I'd expect him to have. Plus, 7 years in the business is a long time for him. Champ before the end of the year!</p><p> </p><p>
Also, don't know what it is about Giant Brody in this, especially since you haven't exactly done much with him, but I want him to succeed. Is he performing decently, or is he being carried to solid/good matches?</p>
-
Enjoyed reading that. It's an endearing quality to see a character who thinks like that, he knows he has to go out of his box in order to get noticed. I was wondering if he was a newer regen or if he had been around for a few years, as I assume he was a hillbilly regen. Another guy to route for now though, will be interesting to see if he actually gets along with Clyde, haha.
-
Tbh, i'd 100% be down for you expanding on a family like the Monteros. Particularly looking forward to KitoGuchi showing up, I really like them as a team.

Been away for a week or so but I've caught up now! Really enjoying this, as always.
If you're looking for ideas for narratives going forward, I'd like to see one for Clinton Westybrook, as it seems he is showing some promise; Danny Puder, to see how he feels coming in and being given a gimmick where he is paired with a RMW original and Ross Henry, to catch up on how he is handling being a big name outside of wrestling and coming in and fitting in etc. Either way, I am looking forward to anything you do.
