tommytomlin Posted June 22, 2007 Author Share Posted June 22, 2007 [B][SIZE="4"]Promotion Spotlight #1 - The AWF [/SIZE][/B] [CENTER][IMG]http://img518.imageshack.us/img518/7145/awfmj7.jpg[/IMG][/CENTER] [SIZE="3"][B]The Bio[/B][/SIZE] [QUOTE]Thought by many to be the federation to inherit the 'Sports Entertainment' crowd, the AWF is the brainchild of long-time friends[B] Hulk Hogan[/B] and [B]Eric Bischoff[/B]. In the years that followed The Fall, the AWF became a global wrestling powerhouse, thanks in part to the enormous success of a feud between Hogan and[B] The Rock[/B]. A talent raid of FPW and the addition of a Cruiserweight division in 2004 also bolstered the promotion. In July 2005, the AWF held Independence Day IV, the largest wrestling event of the Post-Fall era. However, while the AWF is a global wrestling powerhouse, it still faces a challenge from its rival [B]Fusion Pro Wrestling (FPW)[/B].[/QUOTE] [SIZE="3"][B]The Talent Raid [/B][/SIZE] [QUOTE] [IMG]http://img388.imageshack.us/img388/3893/goldberghd9.jpg[/IMG] At the beginning of 2004, a promising AWF upper mid-carder by the name of [B]Sean O'Haire[/B] jumped to FPW. This turned a friendly rivalrly into an all-out war between the two promotions. With a fat bank balance and a thirst for blood, Eric Bischoff launched a talent raid on FPW. In a matter of weeks, he had signed [B]Jeff Hardy, Bradshaw, Sean Waltman, Shannon Moore and Maven[/B]. A few months later, a contract dispute saw [B]Bill Goldberg[/B] jump ship to the AWF also, and he was soon followed by none other than [B]Kurt Angle[/B], who had been in FPW since 2003. [/QUOTE] [SIZE="3"][b]The Cruiserweight Division[/b][/SIZE] [QUOTE] [IMG]http://img505.imageshack.us/img505/147/reymysterio2ry8.jpg[/IMG] In February 2004, after months of negotiations, Hogan and Bischoff finally secured the services of one [B]Rey Mysterio Jr[/B]. This was Rey's first appearance in the 'Big Three', after working for Pro Wrestling Reborn stateside and the AAA in Mexico. And, with their crown jewel in place, the AWF began a Cruiserweight division, to counter the success of FPW's (and the NWA's X-Division). With a strong Latino fanbase, Bischoff worked some of his old magic, signing luchadors like [B]Psicosis [/B]and [B]Super Crazy [/B]to enhance the roster.[/QUOTE] [SIZE="3"] [b]The Power Ten[/b][/SIZE] [QUOTE] [IMG]http://img71.imageshack.us/img71/7964/brocklesnarnb1.jpg[/IMG] [B]1.

The Canadian Mafia - Adam Copeland (Edge), Chris Jericho and Andrew 'Test' Martin.[/B] With World, IC and Tag Titles amongst them, they are the most successful stable in AWF history. [B]4. Kurt Angle[/B] - After stints in the NWA and FPW, Angle made the switch to the AWF, for dream matches with Lesnar and Goldberg. [B]5. John Cena[/B] - AWF's homegrown star, on the cusp of superstardom. [B]6. The Giant [/B]- An AWF mainstay since the beginning. A feud with Lesnar helped make him a star. [B]7. Jeff Jarrett[/B] - Jumped from the NWA in 2005, to join his father Jerry in the promotion. [B]8. 4-X[/B] - The coolest stable in the world, or at least that's what the kids tell me. The Hardyz, Rey Mysterio and Carlito Colon form the group, and sell more T-Shirts than anybody in the company. [B]9. John Bradshaw Layfield[/B] - A decent run in FPW as a tough Texan turned into gold in the AWF, when he ditched the long hair for a suit and tie. A solid upper mid-carder. [B]10. MNM[/B] - No, not Mercuy, Nitro and Melina - [B]M[/B]ark Jindrak, Johnny [B]N[/B]itro and Dawn [B]M[/B]arie!

tommytomlin Posted June 22, 2007 Author Share Posted June 22, 2007 [QUOTE=BIGJOSH;247997]WHAT!!!! Another Fall...what's this one going to be like?[/QUOTE] Hehe, I kinda worded the opening post badly. There's not going to be another FALL, all the promotions are going pretty well. Lots of war though. Another Fall would just be sad and evil, hehe. And as you can see above, I'll be doing little spotlights on each promotion as the days go on. Next will be FPW, then the NWA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soccergalaxy13 Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 Another Fall would be stupid.

A talent raid from the AWF in 2004 decimated the company's roster, however this was offset by the signing of [B]Chris Benoit[/B] in 2003 and the return of [B]Shawn Michaels[/B] to active competition later that year. Over the past four years, FPW has been known for producing some of the best matches of the post-Fall era. While it lacks the overwhelming star power of the AWF, FPW makes up for it with a roster full of proven names and young talent.[/QUOTE] [B][SIZE="3"]The Returns[/SIZE][/B] [QUOTE] [CENTER][IMG]http://img513.imageshack.us/img513/197/chrisbenoit2oz5.jpg[/IMG][/CENTER] After losing names like [B]Brock Lesnar [/B]and [B]Kurt Angle[/B] to the AWF, and after the retirement of [B]'Stone Cold' Steve Austin[/B], FPW would seem to be in a precarious position. However, the company has soldiered on. In 2003, they signed [B]Chris Benoit[/B], and in October of that year made him a mega-star when he defeated Steve Austin in the final match of his career. The return of [B]Shawn Michaels [/B]revitalised the main-event scene, and matches with Benoit and [B]Tazz[/B], and the reformation of The Rockers with [B]Marty Jannetty[/B] produced wrestling gold. More recently, the signings of [B]Kane [/B]from the AWF and[B] Christian Cage [/B]from STAMPEDE has created a depth of talent never seen before in the company.[/QUOTE] [B][SIZE="3"]The Samoan and The Legend[/SIZE][/B] [QUOTE] [CENTER][IMG]http://img407.imageshack.us/img407/9655/samoajoe2el0.jpg[/IMG][/CENTER] [B]Mick Foley[/B] and [B]Samoa Joe[/B] have a long history, thanks to a two-year feud in Pro Wrestling Reborn After The Fall. After their feud concluded in that promotion, Foley brought Joe into FPW as his protege in 2004. Of course, it didn't last long. Joe viciously turned on his mentor, and from 2004-2005, The Samoan Submission Machine went on a rampage in FPW. He defeated Foley again, then Tazz, then the departing Goldberg, in a push some think was reserved for Brock Lesnar before his departure. In October 2005, Samoa Joe is on a collision course with two men - [B]Chris Benoit[/B] and the FPW World Heavyweight Champion [B]Shawn Michaels[/B].

The-619 Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 Yes! Thank you tommy this is great! Can't wait for number 3. Edit: Thought I'd put more depth into my post, first of all I like both promotions that you have listed so far. And regardless of AWF having a big push on one of my favourite Main Event wrestlers from WWE (Brock Lesnar) I am no doubt going to be playing as FPW. FPW is very well done and the push of the Samoan Submission Machine makes it even better, I'm a huge TNA and huge Joe fan so giving him the belt will be my first goal when I start a game as FPW. I will probabley try most of the main promotions, but it matters how NWA is going to see which one I start first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucied Posted June 23, 2007 Share Posted June 23, 2007 My vision for FPW is quite different, but I'm still in April 2002. Who knows what the next three years will have in store. This future version of FPW (or at least "future" compared to the original) seems quite sound. I like it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He still in PWR, or did he go make his star elsewhere? In my game, I signed Punk to FPW in the first week of the game (October 2001), and currently (April 2002), he's been FPW World Champion twice (he lost to Undertaker in a case where I blame confusion between Cheap Finish and Tainted Win) and has an A* popularity in all US regions. Though, I can understand having Punk and Joe in FPW would make things a bit unfair ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, I signed him to FPW in hopes that he'd be a future star in a year or two. I never expected him to shoot up the ranks so quickly. My booking staff told me that he's a rising star and should be given a lot of wins. So I did that. In no time, he was in the main event, winning the FPW World title in January 2002. Either I'm really good, or it was just too easy to make him into a major star. I signed him to a PPA at $700 an appearance, but when I tried to give him a raise, he wants over $4,000. Austin won't let me pay him that. But I have a little over two months left on Punk's current deal, so I'm desperately hoping I can hit National before that. Though I doubt it.
