USPW: The American Way

[angeldelayette]

[CENTER][I][B][SIZE=3][From the ashes of Burnout, comes USPW: The American Way!][/SIZE] [Within an office inside the home of United States Pro Wrestling Owner Sam Strong, Sam is seated at the head of a table along with Road Agent Micky Starr, Head Announcer Danny Jillefski and an unknown man.] Sam Strong[/B] "Good afternoon gentlemen and thank you for joining me here. I hope you enjoyed your lunch but right now it is time to get down to business. Micky, Danny I know you are both looking at me and wondering who this other young man is that is sitting next to me. I will explain. This young man's name is Jack Avatar. He is a very talented wrestler that I have watched on the indy scene for many years and a man who has decided to make USPW his home. I have made the decision that in order to truly bring us into the 21st century we needed a fresh young mind to do that. That fresh young mind is Jack Avatar. Jack, the meeting is yours." [B]Jack Avatar[/B] "Thank you, Sam. I hope that I can prove that your trust in me is well-founded. Good afternoon, Micky, Danny. Thank you for coming to the meeting. I was just given this job yesterday but instead of merely taking the day off to get settled into the business I made the choice to get some things started that I have been looking into. The first thing is that I contacted both Richard Eisen and Tommy Cornell. Richard has agreed to terms of a non-agression contract with his SWF and USPW and Tommy has agreed to a working agreement with us. I believe that both will provide us with some security, some strength and some stability going forward. The next thing that I looked at is how we are putting on the shows. I have no offense intended toward Sam Strong or toward any of you but right now we do not have the talent to be putting on as many matches as we have set for the company. We were working at about 80% matches. I am going to lower that to 60% matches for both our Events and our Television show. Speaking of our television show, Danny you will remain our Head Announcer but I am installing myself as the Colour Commentator for the show until a better option is found or signed." [B]Micky Starr[/B] "So, Sam, you are giving up control of the organization entirely?" [B]Sam Strong[/B] "No, not at all. I have certain guidelines that Jack must follow in order to remain within his position. These guidelines are on a sheet that Jack will pass around to you now." [B][Jack passes the sheet around so that everyone has a copy.] Micky Starr[/B] "Some interesting things here. So Bruce the Giant and Peter Valentine will be the focus of our shows then?" [B]Jack Avatar[/B] "That is correct. I have plans for both of them that I will get into later on. We do want to make sure that everyone within the company is safe and at least slightly fluent within the basics of professional wrestling. No sense in making us look like some third-rate organization. We also are in need of people who have the charisma to reach the fans with both their mic rate and their storytelling within the ring. Now onto the roster..." [B]To Be Continued...[/B][/I][/CENTER]

[B][I][CENTER][Back within the office of Sam Strong: Sam, Jack Avatar, Micky Starr and Danny Jillefski are going over the current roster of USPW.][/B] [B]Jack Avatar[/B] "As you can see, there are definitely certain roster changes that need to take place here in USPW. During this week, I am going to be sending the scouting department out to various independent shows and various shows throughout the country taking a look to see which guys we can sign to our USPW roster, including some new managers and another new Road Agent. Micky, you're not losing your job either, but Sam has agreed to become an on-screen presence for USPW. In doing so, this frees up a position within the Road Agent ranks. I have a specific man in mind but we'll see if he's up to working with us." [B]Sam Strong[/B] "Remember, Jack, I told you that Bruce and Peter have got to be kept at the top of the card. They are our movers and shakers within the industry right now." [B]Jack Avatar[/B] "I understand what you're saying, Sam. I have no intentions of moving them from the top of the card. But I do have plans for some changes. if you will look here." [B][Jack pointed out a few places where he marked some changes to Bruce and Peter respectively.] Sam Strong[/B] "I don't know if either of them will go for it, Jack, but we can give it a try. You have been known as one of the more brilliant minds on the indy scene for a reason, right? Just don't make too many changes too soon." [B]Jack Avatar[/B] "I will only make changes that I believe will benefit the company in the long run, Sam. You know that. That's why you hired me. I have also sent a member of our scouting department out to the Angel Athletic Association show to speak with Anne Stardust on a new working agreement. I am hoping that answer will come in before our show tomorrow. Now, let's get down to our first card of the new year..." [B][The four men begin to speak within the room, finishing up the meeting with the first card of the year laid out and end the meeting with a notice that they will be meeting like this every week to discuss the status of USPW.][/B][/CENTER][/I] [CENTER][SIZE=4]ROSTER[/SIZE] [B][I]USPW Roster as of January Week 1, 2008[/B] Babyfaces in Red Heels in Blue[/I] [B][U]Tag Teams[/B][/U] [COLOR=RED]The Forces of America (Jim Force and Captain USA) The Hillbillys (Al The Hillbilly and Pete The Hillbilly[/COLOR] [COLOR=BLUE]Savage Fury (Java and Tribal Warrior) (Managed by Shane Sneer) The Towers of Power (Mick Muscle and Danny Rushmore)[/COLOR] [B][U]Women's Division[/U][/B] [COLOR=RED]Alicia Strong[/COLOR] [COLOR=BLUE]Cherry Bomb Nadia Snow Stephanie Wade[/COLOR] [B][U]Enhancement Talents[/U][/B] [COLOR=RED]Happy Elwood[/COlOR] [B][U]Openers[/U][/B] [COLOR=BLUE]Eric The Bull (Managed by Shane Sneer) Lex Appeal[/COLOR] [B][U]Lower Midcarders[/U][/B] [COLOR=RED]Al The Hillbilly Pete The Hillbilly[/COLOR] [COLOR=BLUE]Tribal Warrior (Managed by Shane Sneer)[/COLOR] [B][U]Midcarders[/U][/B] [COLOR=RED]Darryl Devine Des Davids Nicky Champion[/COLOR] [COLOR=BLUE]Anger Danny Rushmore Java (Managed by Shane Sneer) Mick Muscles[/COLOR] [B][U]Upper Midcarders[/U][/B] [COLOR=RED]Captain USA Jack Avatar Jim Force[/COLOR] [COLOR=BLUE]Giant Redwood Jumbo Jackson (Managed by Shane Sneer)[/COLOR] [B][U]Main Eventers[/U][/B] [COLOR=RED]Bruce The Giant Chris Caulfield (Managed by Seduction) James Justice[/COLOR] [COLOR=BLUE]Peter Valentine T-Rex[/COLOR][/CENTER]

That should be a great match with either of those competitors![/CENTER][/I][/QUOTE] [QUOTE][CENTER][B]Mick Muscles vs. Jim Force[/B] [I]The crowd were on their feet for the opening matchup here on USPW American Wrestling as Jim Force takes on Mick Muscles. The crowd wasn't as into this back and forth matchup as one might think they would be.

These two showed some great chemistry in the ring though Anger seemed really off his game and the fans picked up on that.

When Valentine had the advantage, he made sure to make plays toward Seduction, who was standing at ringside. He put Caulfield's face right up against her and choked him! But Caulfield used the crowd to get right back into the fight. Valentine rolled out of the ring to break the momentum and got behind Seduction, holding her in front of him to keep The Hardcore American back. Valentine got Caulfield back in the ring and rolled him up, using his feet on the ropes and the fans were shocked to see Peter Valentine get the upset victory![/I] [B]Winner: Peter Valentine Match Rating: D+[/B][/CENTER][/QUOTE] [QUOTE][CENTER][B]USPW WORLD TITLE MATCH James Justice defends against T-Rex[/B] [I]A split-screen was shown of the two men walking backstage and we were informed by Jillefski and Avatar that this match is next!

As Justice began firing back, Shane Sneer, who came down with Jumbo, jumped on the apron to distract the official! Jumbo climbed into the ring and T-Rex held Liberty by the arms! Jumbo held a chair up and swung --- LIBERTY DUCKED! T-Rex had the chair wrapped around his skull! Justice took down Jumbo and then knocked Sneer off the apron. He turned back to T-Rex ---- Liberation Slam! 1-2-3![/I] [B]Winner: James Justice Match Rating: D+[/B] [I]Following the pinfall, Jumbo and Sneer climbed back into the ring. Justice was able to fight them off but when T-Rex got involved the numbers were just too much! Jumbo grabbed the USPW World Title and smacked James Justice across the face with it! Then the crowd cheered as out from the back came Bruce The Giant! The large man came rumbling down to the ring, stepping over the top rope! He cleaned house of T-Rex, Jumbo and Sneer and helped James Justice to his feet! He handed James the USPW World Title belt and they shook hands in the center of the --- WHAT THE?!?! Bruce just FLOORED James Justice with a clothesline! Boos rain throughout the crowd as Bruce stares down at Liberty with a twisted smile! What is going on?!? I don't know but we're out of time! See you next week![/I][/CENTER][/QUOTE][/CENTER]

[angeldelayette]

Just a couple of questions for my readers after the show. Mostly, the whole 'what did you think' type of thing. The big question is do you want more detail/less detail presented. Is the presentation alright? Do you want me to bring back the pictures?

[Stennick]

Me personally I'm a fan of detail. I know a lot of people around here seemed to have switched to a bar bones. I like details, however I've seen plenty of people say they like the quick n the dirty approach.

[CENTER][B][I][Six days after the USPW American Wrestling Show, the team of Sam Strong, Jack Avatar, Micky Starr and Danny Jillefski all meet back within Sam Strong's office like they said they would.][/B] [B]Sam Strong[/B] "Alright, Gentlemen, we have a lot to go over so let's go ahead and get started. First of all, Danny has the report on the tv ratings." [B]Danny Jillefski[/B] "Well, the ratings weren't that great if I'm going to be honest. We pulled a .25. It's not the worst we could have done but not great either. We really need to pull in more of a crowd. But on the positive side, we sold out the arena so we do have something that the fans want to see." [B]Sam Strong[/B] "As long as we're getting fans to pay, Jack, you're going to survive. Remember, though, if I end up going into debt over this it'll be more than your job that you're losing, kid. Micky, what about the matches?" [B]Micky Starr[/B] "Several of our matches just weren't great and pulled down the crowd's mood. The match of the night was a tie between the semi main event of Valentine over Caulfield and the main event of Justice over T-Rex. One of the biggest issues right now is stamina. These guys just aren't lasting very long in the matches and fans are only beginning to get interested when they have to go to the finish. This means we need to look at some guys with higher stamina that can go the distance and keep the fans excited." [B]Sam Strong[/B] "Jack, I know you have several things to go over right now. I just wanted to go back over the things that I told you about in the first meeting again. You've done good on the hiring side from the contracts that I've seen. We made $27,050 at the last show. That's a pretty decent number for your first show, kid. I don't know if you've been told, but we've decided we need to raise the ticket prices so the ticket prices for all shows are going up." [B]Jack Avatar[/B] "I know, Sam, I..." [B]Sam Strong[/B] "Kid, don't interrupt me when I'm talking. You'll get your chance. Remember, I told you to push Peter and Bruce. I'm interested in both these storylines you have running with them. We'll see how interested the fans get in them. Now, it's your turn, kid." [B]Jack Avatar[/B] "Thanks, Sam. So the first show wasn't as hot as I thought it would be. But we are building a product here and that takes time. Rome wasn't built overnight, right? We have made some major hirings within the last week that I hope will build on those thoughts that Micky had. I've brought in guys like the Dirty White Boys and Southern Justice Jack Griffith." [B]Sam Strong[/B] "Jack's still wrestling? That's amazing." [B]Jack Avatar[/B] "..." [B]Sam Strong[/B] "You got more to say, kid?" [B]Jack Avatar[/B] "Yeah, I just didn't wanna interrupt you again, Sam." [B][Jack smiles at Sam and Sam frowns while Micky and Danny try to hide a chuckle.][/B] [B]Jack Avatar[/B] "In addition to those signings, I just finalized a major deal right before this meeting. Through my connections with TCW, I managed to get an interview with the representatives from U-Demand, the pay-per-view network." [B]Sam Strong[/B] "Yeah, kid?" [B]Jack Avatar[/B] "Yeah and I managed to get us a nice deal with that network to get our major cards aired every month on pay-per-view." [B]Micky Starr[/B] "I'm impressed, kid! Sam's been looking at some pay-per-view companies but he's had no luck." [B]Sam Strong[/B] "Maybe there's hope for you yet, kid." [B]Jack Avatar[/B] "Thanks, guys. Our first pay-per-view of the year is going to be USPW Stars, Stripes and Slams. And as announced on the last tv show, the main event will be Jumbo Jackson getting a shot at the USPW World Title against James Justice. One undercard match in particular I am looking at is Peter Valentine against Chris Caulfield. With our deals with SWF and TCW, they won't be taking our talent any time soon." [B]Sam Strong[/B] "Let's get down to it, kid." [B][With that, they began plotting not only the next card, not only the next PPV but several PPV's beyond that.][/B][/I][/CENTER]

Both men went back and forth in the early going with Griffith taking the advantage due to a thumb to the eyes. The cowboy Southern Justice got several two counts on Devine but Devine kept getting that shoulder up.

This week, I have another powerful opponent in Sam Keith. Sam, you're a great wrestler but you're a turncoat to the American Way. You don't stand for the truth and justice that I do. Instead, you let yourself get carried around by those other no-gooders. Tonight, I will prove to you that is a mistake. Tonight when we step inside this ring, justice will prevail and so will the American Way James Justice. Now, I haven't forgotten about what also happened last week. I haven't forgotten about the betrayal by Bruce The Giant. Bruce, you're going to have to wait your turn for a shot at this title. I have Jumbo Jackson at Stars, Stripes and Slams but if you want to come at me after that then I suggest you don't sneak attack me like you did last week. You step up and face me like a man. You say that you're going to be here after my match with Sam Keith tonight? Well, I won't be hard to find. I'll be the man offering truth, justice and Liberation Slams to all inside the ring."

Caulfield lost last week so he was looking to regain some momentum but the match didn't start very good for him as Giant Redwood clubbed him with some forearms into the corner. The crowd didn't much care for Giant Redwood's momentum but did cheer some when Caulfield got back into the bout, chopping down the Giant Redwood with kicks, punches and clotheslines! The Hardcore American actually got Giant Redwood up and dropped him with the Danger Drop! Caulfield made the cover and got the three count![/I] [B]Winner: Chris Caulfield Match Rating: D-[/B] [I]Following the match, Caulfield was celebrating with Seduction when Peter Valentine attacked from behind with a chair to the back! Caulfield turned and took a shot to the skull. Peter looked at Seduction, yelling at her that this is her fault and she should be with him! Seduction looked scared to death as she covered her man to stop the beating and Valentine just smiled as he raised the chair and then thought better of it, dropping the chair and walking off with the damage already done.[/I][/CENTER][/QUOTE] [QUOTE][CENTER][I][Backstage, the cameras focus in on the daughter of the owner: Alicia Strong.] [b]Alicia Strong[/B] "A lot of people believe that because I am a second-generation wrestler that I am getting the benefit of the doubt here in USPW. They believe that my father built this women's division as my playtoy but those people obviously have not seen me in the ring. Cherry Bomb, at Stars, Stripes and Slams you're going to get a first hand look at the second generation of Strong. You're going to get in the ring with the daughter of the greatest wrestling legend of all time and the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Be prepared to surrender that USPW Women's Title my way because what the Strong family wants, the Strong family gets."[/I][/CENTER][/QUOTE] [QUOTE][CENTER][B]USPW World Title Match James Justice defends against Sam Keith[/B] [I]The crowd cheered for the arrival of The American Way James Justice with his USPW World Title in tow and booed the arrival of the Syndicate's Sam Keith. The two men stared each other down from opposite corners before the bell sounded. Several failed lockups began the match before Keith wrestled Justice into a side headlock. Justice brought Keith back into the ropes and shot him off, chasing right after him and hitting a clothesline that sent Keith over the top rope and collapsing to the floor! Justice started an 'American Way' chant as Keith regrouped outside the ring. Keith paced at ringside and Justice moved to break the ten count but Keith grabbed him by the legs, tripping him up and dragging him outside the ring! Sam Keith rammed James Justice into the guardrail to some boos from the crowd before lifting him up and running him right up against the ring! Sam Keith definitely came here to fight! Keith rolled Justice into the ring and followed him in before they were counted out. Keith went on the offensive here with several power moves and several two counts on The American Way. Keith continued his advantage by moving Justice into the corner and ramming his back against the turnbuckle. He lifted Justice onto the top turnbuckle and climbed up with him, hooking him up --- SUPERPLEX!!! Justice hits hard, grabbing his back before collapsing to the mat! Sam Keith makes the cover: 1... 2... SHOULDER UP!! James Justice got his shoulder up instinctively! Keith yelled at the referee that it should have been a three count but Baby Jamie wasn't having any of it! Keith pulled James Justice up and whipped him into the turnbuckle. He got a head of steam and charged at Justice --- AVALANCHE --- MISSED!! James Justice got out of the way at the last second and Sam Keith hit hard! The fans got into it with more chants of 'American Way' and Justice didn't disappoint them! He brought Sam Keith down with clotheslines and body slams. An inverted atomic drop and a dropkick led to Justice climbing the turnbuckles! He looked down at Sam Keith --- FLYING ELBOW DROP --- CONNECTS!! He dropped it right into the heart of Sam Keith and then popped back up, playing to the crowd! He turned to Keith and pulled him up, setting him into position --- LIBERATION SLAM!!! Justice somehow hit the Liberation Slam and then grabbed his back in pain! He crawled over to make the cover: 1... 2... 3!!! James Justice gets the three count and remains USPW World Champion![/I] [B]Winner: James Justice Match Rating: C+[/b] [I]Following the match, Baby Jamie hands James Justice the USPW World Title belt and he plays to the crowd for a moment before the crowd stirs as Bruce The Giant and Playboy Jake Sawyer walk out from the back. Justice stands in a far corner, staring down his former friend. Bruce steps over the top rope and looks down at the American Way James Justice. Justice drops the USPW World Title belt like a line in the sand --- The locker room explodes! The locker room clears out as wrestlers come running down and work to keep these two men seperate! Des Davids, Anger, American Machine, among others are there to hold these two men back and we're out of time! See you next week![/I][/CENTER][/QUOTE][/CENTER]

[QUOTE=MrOnu;527267]I think the presentation is just fine. Each segment is clearly defined and we have just enough details to get what went on. This said, I'm a fan of short match writings and long promos. Just a note though : stick with James Justice, calling him Liberty a couple times names could get you sued ;)[/QUOTE] Hope you like the new nickname I came up with for him. ;-) And also the new style of presentation. Thanks for everyone for weighing in on that.

[CENTER][B][I][It is a return to the office of USPW Owner Sam Strong as the USPW Committee has their weekly meeting.] Sam Strong[/B] "We have some issues that need to be addressed within this meeting. Before we get to them, let's begin our usual rundown of things with you Danny." [B]Danny Jillefski[/B] "Well, the ratings for our show went up. Following the good showing last week, more fans tuned in this week bumping our rating from .25 to .39. Fans are definitely getting interested in the Bruce The Giant/James Justice storyline. But we didn't sell out the arena this week. This week we only got 4,003 people within the 5,000 seat arena." [B]Sam Strong[/B] "Jack, you better be doing something to get those butts in the seats because that really pays our bills. Micky, what about the matches?" [B]Micky Starr[/B] "The American Made Men made their debut in a lackluster match against Lex Appeal and Eric The Bull. But, then, how much more could we expect out of those two? The match of the night was obviously the main event. Fans got into it and some really thought that Sam Keith must stand a shot at winning the USPW World Title belt. Darryl Devine's Mighty Fine Challenge got off to a kinda lousy start with not having one of the best matches on the card with Southern Justice. Now we need to decide where we go from here with Griffith." [B]Sam Strong[/B] "I am sure that the kid has some plans for all the wrestlers, right? No guys where Creative doesn't have any idea what to do with you. Now the problem we are having right now is our manager pairings. We brought the Playboy Jake Sawyer in to be the manager of Bruce The Giant and they have no chemistry as a manager/client duo. Not only do they have very poor chemistry but so do Queen Emily and T-Rex. The Queen and T-Rex situation is easily fixed but what about the Bruce and Sawyer combination? We need to do some long and hard thinking about this. Jack, what news do you have?" [B]Jack Avatar[/B] "Well, we signed another couple of people. Ernie Turner and Sara Marie York will both soon be making their debuts here in USPW. We have seven teams right now within the USPW ranks, slowly building the tag team division. Four face teams and three heel teams. And one good thing about the Bruce/Sawyer duo is that they do well with each other in interviews. It's just when other angles are done or Bruce is in a match that we have to worry about. The same with Queen Emily and T-Rex. In news from Total Championship Wrestling, James Justice was defeated by Tyson Baine in a decent semi-main event match on their last TCW Presents Total Wrestling Show. The New Wave did win the TCW World Tag Team Titles from the Machines, also. Richard Eisen and SWF have gone on the signing path, signing up Eric Tyler, James Prudence, Steven Parker and Grandmaster Phunk. I am very glad we got our deal set up with them when we did or we might also be raided. SWF ppv When Hell Freezes Over was held last Thursday night for those of you that missed it. Jack Bruce defeated Vengeance to retain the SWF World Title in the main event. The semi main event saw Eric Eisen go over Christian Faith by some dubious means. The match of the night was a tie between Rich Money beating Elmo Benson to retain the North American Title and Brandon James defeating Groucho Bling." [B]Sam Strong[/B] "Thanks for the history lesson, kid, but can we get back on to our program, please?" [B]Jack Avatar[/B] "Of course. Whatever you say, Sam. Now here's how I see the next card panning out..."[/I][/CENTER]

Sneer looked up at him and put his hands on the sides of his head like antlers, making faces at Jim Force to distract him.

Referee Robbie Sanchez made him remove the helmet at least but Des dominated Eric the Bull inside the ring and then turned toward Shane Sneer, going after him. Sneer started running around outside the ring while Davids chased him! Davids nearly got counted out but made it back in the ring in time.

Apparently he forgot that he wanted the title.][/I][/CENTER][/QUOTE] [QUOTE][CENTER][B]Alicia Strong vs. Nadia Snow[/B] [I]The daughter of the owner. Well, what more can we say about her except that she is Sam Strong's daughter? Alicia dominated Nadia Snow in this bout to, well, no one's surprise but Nadia looked good in the ring while she got her butt whipped. Alicia hit Nadia with the Angel Driver and got the clean pinfall and more momentum heading toward the PPV.[/I] [B]Winner: Alicia Strong Match Rating: D-[/B] [I][Following the bout, Cherry Bomb came out alongside the debuting Wanda Fish and they both attacked Alicia Strong, using the numbers game to their advantage! Apparently, there was another young lady in the back who wanted to debut because J-Ro Joanne Rodriguez came running out and made the save, re-igniting her feud with Wanda Fish and forming a lifelong friendship with Alicia Strong. Okay, so maybe just the first one.][/I][/CENTER][/QUOTE] [QUOTE][CENTER][B]Alex Braun vs. Lex Appeal[/B] [I]The Iceman Alex Braun made his debut. How about an intergender tag team of the Iceman and Nadia Snow? Wouldn't that be fun? In any event, Braun dominated Lex Appeal and most people used this time to buy Jim Force merchandise.

When Emily stepped in the ring she was immediately given a microphone. Why? So everyone could hear her when she talked, of course. [B]Queen Emily[/B] "Jack, you speak of T-Rex's being extinct? I think you missed one because he's standing right here. But tonight is not about you. Tonight is about my royal proclamation that T-Rex and Peter Valentine are going to win tonight against James Justice and Chris Caulfield. Tonight is..." Queen Emily was cut off by the sounds of James Justice's entrance music. He came out with the Hardcore American and the match was a pier four brawl early on. When things settled, the match went back and forth with Queen Emily helping T-Rex and Peter Valentine early and often to get and hold and the momentum. Caulfield played much of the face-in-peril early on until he made the hot tag to James Justice. Justice took down both T-Rex and Peter Valentine the American Way: with clotheslines! Caulfield joined in and knocked the referee out with an errant punch. This led to the Hardcore American pulling T-Rex outside the ring and using chairs and the ring post. T-Rex dodged one final chair shot and gored Caulfield into a ring post! T-Rex made threatening gestures toward Seduction and Valentine gave James Justice a low blow! T-Rex tossed Caulfield into the ring while Valentine tossed Justice out of the ring! Valentine hit Caulfield with the HeartBreaker and made a pinfall as the referee came to: 1...2...Valentine's feet on the ropes...3!![/I] [B]Winners: Peter Valentine and T-Rex Match Rating: D[/B] [I]Danny Jillefski and Jack Avatar talked some about the upcoming PPV as the ring cleared out and then they headed backstage where Seduction told Caulfield she would meet him at the car. She turned and walked down a hallway and a mystery man attacked her from behind and pulled her into a waiting limousine and they drove off as the show ended.[/I][/CENTER][/QUOTE][/CENTER]
