Name: Naizen Omura

Age: 21

 

 

Bio: Naizen Omura is a versatile Japanese youngster who can work as either a manager or a colour commentator. Naturally charismatic and enthusiastic, he has a strong appeal to the young generation of fans. He is also rumoured to have a great mind for the business and to have ambitions to one day found a promotion.

 

 

On Monday, Week 1 of January 2008 that dream became a reality when a promotion simply named as "The Institute", located in Kinki, Japan was founded. Omura has been a long time fan of American promotion named Mid Atlantic Wrestling, MAW, where the legendary Rip Chord has been training youngster for years as a way of giving back to the industry that had made him a star. Rumours are that Omura has implemented the same strategy in the Institution with a little twist that he will later reveal. Stay tuned for more detail on the Institution.

Bio: Ryo Hiraki is an announcer who joined the world of pro wrestling in January 2008 along with his childhood friend Naizen Omura. Altough quite bland at the moment, the 18 year old announcer clearly has the potential and time to improve his announcing over the years.

(OOC: Naizen Omura is originally Naizen Ubos h i t a, but because of the language filter I changed his last name to Omura. He is a future worker yet to debut originally, I deleted him from the database and created a user character with the exact same skills and statistics that Naizen had. Ryo Hiraki is a new worker who entered the wrestling world in the following Tuesday. Only 18 and poor in announcing, he's a perfect sidekick for Naizen in this diary. More info coming up later!)

 

Oh my. I will be following as always.. But I know that guy who did that video from Finnish forums. Don't know if you hang in Finnish forums

 

I do and I know him aswell.

Tuesday, Week 1, January.

Omura & The Institute

 

 

Omura revealed earlier today on the radio that he has been a huge fan of CZCW and WLW, both of which shows he has been a regular on and thus will be using the same kind of product than CZCW, only adding womens wrestling into it as integrated. With only 2,500$ dollars combined, he and Hiraki have offered several contracts to unemployed Japanese workers, most of which are young and upcoming, potential superstars who haven't yet received the change to show their skills. The Institute has also been talking with several veterans who would help the young wrestlers to learn their trade. With the connections of Omura and long time devotion to CZCW, The Institute has also managed to get a working relationship with CZCW.

Bio: The Institute has two main goals: To sign and train the unemployed workers from both genders and create their own stars from nothing while being self-sustaining profitable company at the same time.

 

 

 

 

Nice that you write bio's..

 

Are you just "FINisher" from "vapaapaini.com"? And do you hang in other forums :p

 

OOC: Yes, the same guy :o I don't hang around there that much anymore since my interest in wrestling has been on the downfall for a quite some time, but I do love to play wrestling related games..

Oh.. Sorry for spamming your thread, but do you try to rise in size too? Only at local-small would be cool, altough it doesn't matter. I just have a same kind of game going on, where I try only to stay local-small.

 

Yes. I just realised that I have been switching the name of the promotion from Institution to Institute and back to Institution. I'm soooo confused right now.. :confused: I guess I'll be using both names :D

ROSTER OVERVIEW, PART 1/2

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

http://koti.mbnet.fi/sadhappy/TI/Chikafusa.jpg

Chikafusa Tadeshi, 21

 

 

 

Bio:

Chikafusa Tadeshi is a rookie worker from Tokushima in Japan, who is staggeringly bad, possessing so little natural athletic talent that it is considered a minor miracle that he passed through the dojo system. Perhaps having realised this very early, he has played to what little strengths he has, and become very good at taking a convincing beating, selling everything extremely well. Whether this allows him to salvage a career as an enhancement talent remains to be seen.

 

Gimmick:

Skill Levels:

F E- F+ E- D D-

 

Popularity:

F+

 

Personality:

Humble, compassionate, optimistic, dependable, extremely social and loyal.

 

Contract:

200$ per show

 

Thoughts:

Tadeshi is perhaps the worst worker in the whole roster.. And that's saying a lot. With his F+ pop he's pushed as an upper midcarder but that'll change in the following years, don't expect wins from this youngster. The only skills that aren't on the F- to E+ sector are Safety ©, Consistency (B-), Selling (B), Stamina (D+) and Resilience (A), which means that Tadeshi will be The Jobber in TI.

Chiyeko Kita, 24

 

 

Bio:

Chiyeko "Candy Cane" Kita is a rookie Japanese worker who is particularly good at playing the babyface-in-peril. Improving rapidly as a worker, she is one to watch for the future.

Thoughts:

Kita has some great skills in few categoriries: B Star Quality, B- in Charisma, B+ in Athleticism. Her performance skills aren't that bad and with D+ in Flashiness and C in Aerials, I think she will perform well in TI.

 

 

 

 

 

 

http://koti.mbnet.fi/sadhappy/TI/Eiichi.jpg

 

Eiichi Umehara, 21

 

Bio:

Eiichi Umehara is a young wrestler who originally graduated from the World Level Wrestling dojo system. He worked for them under a mask as Firestarter EU for a while, but was eventually let go after failing to get over. Desperate to resurrect his career, he resurfaced in Pro Wrestling SAISHO under his real name and without the mask, apparently looking for a way to get onto the main PGHW roster. That quest proved to be fruitless, as he never really caught on with SAISHO and ended up leaving them quietly in 2007.

Thoughts:

Umehara isn't that good in any category, he's D- in Rumble skills and D to D+ in Performance skills. I don't see much potential in him but I'll wait and see how quick he progresses over the years. Atleast he's a really nice guy and good for our backstage atmosphere.

Japanese Phoenix, 22

 

 

Bio:

Japanese Phoenix is a masked Yodo Yoshizawa, a rookie worker from Tokyo who until 2004 was part of the dojo system with Golden Canvas Grappling. After being released by GCG he spent a two years working the independent scene to gain experience, and realised that he needed something to help him stand out from the pack. To do this, he took the drastic step of contacting Phoenix I in Mexico, and obtained permission to don the mask as the Eastern version of the famous character.

Thoughts:

Phoenix has more potential than Umehara as Phoenix even has C-'s here and there. The only thing that concerns me is his personality and his salary demands, as I will try to avoid all the troublemakers and keep the backstage atmosphere as harmonious as I can. I've only made the expection with Phoenix and just a few others. More on that later.

Kaede Sugiyama, 23

 

Bio:

Kaede Sugiyama is an exciting young prospect in Japan. She is a pretty good high flier, and seems to have a solid grasp of the basics too. She tried out for 5SSW at the tail end of 2005, but was not offered a contract.

Thoughts:

All other unemployed referees were too good for us, but I just realised that Fujimoto is costing us too much. We'll keep him for few months until we see how much money we will lose each month :p

Kinuye Mushashibo, 21

Contract:

Thoughts:

Mushashibo is one of the best women we have on the roster as she has good performance skills, ranging from C- to even B+ in Consistency. She will provide the solid foundation to our women's division with few other great women we have in the roster. Altough not related to Yoshimi Mushashibo, her last name could very well have something to do with how good she is.

http://koti.mbnet.fi/sadhappy/TI/Kuniko.jpg

 

Kuniko Matsura, 23

 

 

Bio:

Kuniko Matsura is a young high flier who made her pro debut in 2004, working for 5SSW. She is nicknamed "Wild Fire" due to her bright yellow and orange costume, as well as her hyperactive style of work. Initially it looked like she was on her way to becoming a star with the company, but her initial momentum soon fizzled out, and by the end of 2006 she seemed stuck in a rut. She left the company around Christmas time.

From another great woman (Mushashibo) to other, Matsura is another great talent we have in the TI roster. C Basics, D+ Psychology, B- Safety, B+ Consistency and C+ in Selling, she's even better than most men we have in the roster. She's certainly one to watch as she could be one of the best talent in the whole roster in few years.

Madman Boone, 31

 

 

Bio:

Ian "Madman" Boone is a big burly brawler, who has made a name for himself through his hardcore wrestling style, never being afraid to put himself in physical danger if it means a spectacular moment for the fans. Unfortunately, that devil-may-care attitude has also resulted in many long term injuries. He is best known for his work with TCW, where his proudest moment was winning the International title, but he was released in 2006 so that he could take the time to heal up his battered body.

Contract:

Thoughts:

Boone is one of the veterans in the roster and has by far the biggest salary with his 1000$ per show which I'm beginning to have second thoughts already. I'll use him in few shows to see if he can deliver the goods and let his contract expire if he doesn't perform in the level that I expect from him.

 

 

 

 

 

 

http://koti.mbnet.fi/sadhappy/TI/SUKI.jpg

 

SUKI, 21

 

 

Bio:

SUKI is Ryunosuke Matsuki, a technically gifted young wrestler who was trained in the Golden Canvas Grappling dojo. While his talent was evident, he graduated at a time when GCG were trying to cut costs, and so he was never brought onto the main roster. Instead, he went to the independent scene, where he wrestled under his real name for a year. In 2006, as well as debuting an awesome new "dickish heel" persona, he changed his ring name to SUKI to reflect the change in attitude.

Thoughts:

SUKI is the best man in the roster with his amazing technical skills and performance levels. The only bad thing about him is his personality, and I won't be hesitating to fire him if he causes troubles, even if he is that damn good in the first place.

Takesi Umehara, 41

Takesi Umehara is a good all-rounder, who is known for his flamboyant costumes. Early in his career he was a relatively progressive lightweight, but in recent years he has bulked up to fight against heavyweight fighters.

Thoughts:

Umehara is the grand old veteran in the roster and will be our Road Agent for the matches and thus will be used on each show. He has good entertainment skills and even better performance skills and thus will be our solid rock in the mens division. Takesi Umehara is not related to Eiichi Umehara.

Tatsukichi Shichirobei, 24

 

 

Bio:

"The Uncontrollable" Tatsukichi Shichirobei is a young brawler from the East. He claims to be a descendent of an ancient Mongol warrior king, and so wears traditional war garb to the ring. He first started getting noticed in WEXXV in 2005 thanks tor his crazed, whirlwind like brawls. For a while, as part of WEXXV's trade agreement, he also worked for DAVE in the United States, but he was considered a flop, failing to rise above opening match status. He was eventually released by WEXXV in 2007.

Shc.. Shichr.. Shichirobei is being paid way too much compared to his skill levels. He's Intense, Tough and Menacing but not that good in the ring otherwise. We'll wait and see if he can get his game to another level.

Tempest Appleby, 33

Yukiko Matsumara, 21

THE STRATEGY

 

 

THE MAIN RULES

 

1. Hire the unemployed and give them their change to show what they have got. TI will not hire anyone who works for another company. TI will however try to negotiate working contracts with other wrestling promotions all around the world and thus will loan wrestlers to gain experience abroad and in return bring in some new talent to TI shows.

 

2. Hire young, potential superstars and create our own legacy. There are dozens of young, yet unproven talent out there that haven't received the opportunity to test themselves and show what they have. TI will provide them with the spotlight, the training and the opportunity of a lifetime for them to take on and fullfil their destiny in the world of wrestling. However, if TI management is unimpressed with the wrestlers progress or the lack of desire or the wrong attitude, the contracts will not be renewed.

 

3. While training our youngsters, TI must remain succesful and a profitable promotion.

 

 

WORKING RELATIONSHIPS

TI has already signed a working relationship with CZCW and will try to sign with other promotions in the future with the exception of using just one relationship per country.

 

 

SCHEDULE

 

Just like other Japanese promotions, TI will be using the touring schedule. The touring months are February - March, May - June, August - September and November - December. So that's four two-month tours in a year. Until TI will gain profit from the shows, it will only hold one show per month.

 

BACKSTAGE ATMOSPHERE

 

TI will try to keep the backstage enviroment as good as possible. Well behaving people will be signed more frequently and troublemakers will be sacked. At the moment, before our first show, the backstage enviroment can be described as "Perfectly Harmonious". Four people are on their way becoming Locker room leaders, and workers like Madman Boone, Takesi Umehara and Yukiko Matsumara are having hugely positive influence on the locker room. On a sidenote Yukiko Matsumara and Kaede Sugiyama have developed a strong friendship even before we've had our first show!

 

 

FIRST TRADE

 

 

 

http://koti.mbnet.fi/sadhappy/TI/Insane.jpg

INSANE MACHINE

 

 

TI have loaned Madman Boone to CZCW in exchange for the great Cruiserweight called Insane Machine. The loan will be for 3 shows, his salary being 500$ per show.

 

"Insane Machine is a highly rated cruiserweight, best known for his work with CZCW. Prior to joining them in 2002, he worked without a mask under his real name, Chris Perkins, but had little success. Once he donned the outrageously cool mask though, his career seemed to take off, and he soon became quite popular. In 2004, his successes with CZCW led him to be invited over to WLW in Japan, and he has slowly built up quite a fan base over there, making him an international wrestling star."

Lower Midcarders:

Tempest Appleby

 

 

Total: 14 wrestlers, 5 female, 9 male.

 

 

Staff: Announcer: Ryo Hirari, Colour Commentator: Naizen Omura and referee Kakuzo Fujimoto.

 

 

TITLES

 

In the beginning there will be only be two titles, both of which are Main Event level championships: One for the men and one for the women.

 

 

BUSINESS

 

We made a profit of +3,273 in January, our first off-month. With just 2,500$ + 3,273$ = 5,773$, 0.0% Prestige, 10.0% popularity in Kinki we start our first tour from the last place in the world rankings (34th).

(OOC: With each show post we will view 3 months of gametime where we go trough the shows and news of those three months, so here's Jan - Mar and our first tour from Feb to Mar)

 

First Tour, "The Beginning"

February - March

 

 

 

 

http://koti.mbnet.fi/sadhappy/TI/TI.jpg

 

 

 

TI: Part One, The Beginning 2008

Thursday, Week 1, February

Hall Of Nagahama, Kinki. Attendance: 57

(Small, Annual 1hr show)

 

 

 

 

I, Naizen Omura cut a promo, welcoming the fans to our historic first show ever. Grade: D

 

Match #1: Takesi Umehara def. Chiyeko Kita in 6:43 by pinfall. Grade: E+

 

SUKI has a microphone, and taunts the whole women's division of TI, saying that the only thing they are good in is "sucking". SUKI challenges any woman to come out, and sure enough an outraged equality fighter, Kuniko Matsura comes out and accepts the challenge. Grade: D

 

Match #2: Kuniko Matsura def. SUKI in 8:05 by pinfall after a Twisting Face Crusher from out of nowhere. Grade: D-

 

Match #3: Insane Machine def. Tempest Appleby in a 1 vs 1 Ladder match in 17:34 when Insane Machine retrieved the item. Grade: E+

(Didn't click and the match was too long, forgot that Appleby was a low. midcarder)

 

 

Overall Grade: E+

 

 

Notes: Not bad, my mistake in the main event booking. Surprisingly good grades in my opinion, SUKI's promos seem to deliver as expected.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Worker signing:

 

 

http://koti.mbnet.fi/sadhappy/TI/Amber.jpg

 

 

On Monday, Week 1 of Feb, Amber Allen, 20, entered the wrestling world and was quickly signed by TI.

 

Bio: Amber Allen is a young female talent, who is the protege of the much-travelled Steph "Principessa" Chee (who is also known as Stephanie Hazel in NOTBPW). Unlike a lot of modern womens wrestlers, who have a tendency to work towards being solid all-rounders, Amber has been trained with one particular area - technique - in mind. The result is that she is an excellent technical wrestler, particularly on the mat, but lacks the flashy aerial attacks of some of her peers.

 

Skills: E B- E C- C C+, Gimmick: Seductress, Popularity: F-, Personality: Humble, compassionate, optimistic, dependable, extremely social and loyal.

 

Thoughts: Allen is a perfect fit for us and will bring a lot to the women's division, she's a nice person with a lot of potential. It seems as if our women's division has much more talent and potential than the men's division.

TI: Elf Power! 2008

Wednesday, Week 1, March

Hall Of Nagahama, Kinki. Attendance: 58

 

 

 

 

Takesi Umehara is in the backstage talking with the owner Naizen Omura, asking for a match against Insane Machine, which he gets. Grade: D

 

Match #1: Amber Allen defeated Chiyeko Kita in 5:33 by pinfall with the Northern Lights Suplex in Allen's debut match. Grade: E+

 

SUKI has a microphone, and tears into Kuniko Matsura, telling her that he wants a rematch since her victory over him last month was just a fluke. Matsura comes out and accepts. Grade: D-

 

Match #2: SUKI defeated Kuniko Matsura in 10:46 by submission with the SUKI Special III (Elevated Boston Crab with one knee to the back of the opponent to add more pressure into the hold), a hold which SUKI didn't release until staff members rushed in and broke the hold. Grade: D-

 

Match #3: Takesi Umehara defeated Insane Machine in a 1 vs 1 Ladder match in 15:43 when Takesi Umehara retrieved the item. Grade: D

 

Overall Grade: D-

 

 

Notes: A much better show than the first one, SUKI's unintentional misogynist storyline seems to be starting and it seems that he will face more women in the following months. Match grades are in the E+ to D range as expected. Insane Machine has one show left in the loan deal but if I'm correct the deal will expire before May when we start our second tour.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

End Of Tour Notes:

 

 

Total of 2 Shows: E+ & D-

Popularity in Kinki: +1.2 = 11.2% = F+

Prestige: +0.2 = 0.2%

Financial Performance: +3,273$ in Jan, +1,675$ in Feb, +410$ in Mar which leaves us with +7,858$ to start our second tour in May.

Our first tour went better than I expected, both show-wise and financially. It seems that we can do three shows on the next tour from May to June with the help of sponsorship money from April. Matsura's Equality Fighter and SUKI's Chosen One seem to have hit the nail to the head aswell as Umehara's Mysterious gimmick and Kita's Sidekick (We just don't know yet who's sidekick she is!), all rated from B- to B. Matsura and Umehara have surprisingly good momentum going on. We now have six women in the roster: 4 Cruiserweights, 1 Techinician and one Regular wrestler. A brawler would be nice addition so that the women could learn different skills from each other.

This really looks familiar. I like it! :D

 

And giving Allen Amber a Seductress gimmick? That's basically the total opposite of how I see her. It's cool to see how people use the C-Verse wrestlers since their really isn't a "right" way to push them.

I'm curious to see how this goes. I thought about running a 0/0/0 educationnal challenge in Japan since foolinc's idea is great and we see many question on the Japanese promotions, but decided against it. I honestly feared the talent pool was too thin to support another promotion. Best of luck !

http://koti.mbnet.fi/sadhappy/TI/Takuma.jpg

 

 

 

Takuma Nakahara (Generated worker) has signed with TI and will be pushed as an announcer. Ryo Hiroki is now being pushed as a personality but he will remain seated at the announcing table. Nakahara has D+ in Microphone, Charisma and Announcing, and has C- in Acting and D- popularity troughout Japan. Gimmick: Simpleton.

 

 

 

 

 

 

http://koti.mbnet.fi/sadhappy/TI/Flemmy.jpg

 

 

In an odd twist in his career, the fabolous young technician named Flemmy Lemming (Real name Simon Flemmingway), 23, was called up in the PGHW main roster from SAISHO but was fired on the very next day. TI quickly contacted Lemming and signed him since he was unemployed.

 

Bio: "Suicidal" Flemmy Lemming (real name Simon Flemmingway) is a fine young mat worker, who many see a lot of potential in. While quite small physically, he has phenomonal mat wrestling skills, and can tie up guys three times his size in knots. Surprisingly, somehow he came to the attention of PGHW management in Japan, who were impressed with his skills. He was offered a development deal in 2006, which he accepted.

 

Lemming's gimmick will be "Genius" and he is being pushed as a low. midcarder. His overall skills skills are D-, C+, E, C+, C+ and C.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

http://koti.mbnet.fi/sadhappy/TI/Cougar.jpg

 

 

CZCW had used Madman Boone three times and thus we loaned him again for them (He's C- popular in US so they were more than willing to do another trade with us). We got the magnicifent highflyer and one of my favourite wrestlers, the Masked Cougar into TI for three shows.

 

 

 

 

 

 

http://koti.mbnet.fi/sadhappy/TI/Connie.jpg

 

 

As our first trade with 5SSW, we loaned our Kuniko Matsura in exhance for Connie Morris. Morris is 27 years old and E- pop in Japan, classified as a regular wrestler. His gimmick will be (wo)man On A Mission and she's being pushed as a Main Eventer. Her skills are D+, D-, E, E, B- and C-.

TI: Help, Pink Spiders! 2008

Sunday, Week 1, May

Hall Of Nagahama, Kinki. Attendance: 57

 

 

The debuting "Suicidal" Flemmy Lemming is in the ring with a microphone. He claims that he is so good that he cannot be defeated by anyone, especially in such a small promotion like TI since he has been in PGHW, in the big leagues, and so he is making an open challenge for any wrestler on the roster to face him in his first ever TI singles match. Tempest Appleby comes out and accepts the challenge. Grade: E+

 

Match #1: Flemmy Lemming defeated Tempest Appleby in 8:18 by submission with a Suicide Solution. Grade: D-

 

Match #2: Kuniko Matsura defeated Takesi Umehara in 12:35 by pinfall with a Twisting Face Crusher after a bothsided distraction from SUKI. Grade: D-

 

SUKI has a microphone, and tears into Kuniko Matsura, taunting him of the beating she received at the last show. Kuniko Matsura taunts him back and reveals that she has a surprise opponent for SUKI, as Connie Morris, straight from 5SSW, enters the ring behind SUKI and Missouri Ploughs him into the mat!! Grade: D

 

Match #3: SUKI defeated Connie Morris in 17:47 by submission with a SUKI Special III. Grade: D

Match #4: In our Main Event the two CZCW superstar met in a nice ladder match. The debuting Masked Cougar defeated Insane Machine in a 1 vs 1 Ladder match in 24:40 when Masked Cougar retrieved the item. Grade: D

(Sadly, Cougar was off his game)

Overall Grade: D-

 

 

Notes: Lemming debuted, Matsura got an upset win over Umehara and Morris lost to SUKI in her debut match. Cougar vs. Machine was a letdown since I really thought that they would get atleast D+, Cougar was a little off his game and I guess going into the match with no momentum may have had an effect on the match outcome aswell. D- overall is not bad, we could do worse and still rise in popularity. Sadly, the main event was Insane Machine's last but I think that we will see him again in TI ring.

TI will now be classified as a "Small" sized promotion. :cool:

In other news, last nights match against Masked Cougar was the last from Insane Machine as his loan period came to an end as he had wrestler for TI for three times.

 

 

 

 

http://koti.mbnet.fi/sadhappy/TI/Otsune.jpg

 

 

 

5SSW quickly used the three show deal of Kuniko Matsura and thus we loaned him again for them in exchange for Otsune Tsumura, 25. Tsumura very small cruiserweight with, her gimmick will be Prima Donna and she will be pushed as a Main Eventer as she has E popularity. Her main skills are as follows: F+, E+, C-, C-, C+ and D+. Matsuras run in 5SSW featured three losses to Umeko Hotta, Chitose Ariwara and Otsune Tsumura (D+, D+ and E+)

Back to Square One

 

As the month changed from May to June, we became #2 in the Regional Battle in Kinki. The first place went to Hinote Dojo with their C- show, our was D- and received the second place but the 3rd place went to WEXXV who didn't even tour during May but were still included in the Regional Battle. Because of the loss to Hinote Dojo, TI fell back to Local size as we lost just few percents from our popularity in Kinki. Speaking of WEXXV, they are heading down the bankruptcy highway, fast. I can't wait for them to go out of business, it's sad but true.

(OOC: No, I really don't want.. Or do I.. I'm confused.. :p)

TI: Donkeys On Cocaice, RUN!! 2008

Wednesday, Week 1, June

Hall Of Nagahama, Kinki. Attendance: 48

 

 

Naizen Omura is in the ring, announcing that tonight we will see two matches from both gender division, both of whichs are semi-final matches for the two World titles. Tonight we will see Mushashibo taking on Morris, Matsura taking on the debuting Tsumura for the Finals for the TI: Women's title. In men's division SUKI will face Madman Boone and Masked Cougar will meet Takesi Umehara. Grade: D-

 

Semi-Final, Women #1: Kinuye Mushashibo defeated Connie Morris in 6:31 by pinfall with the High Velocity Senton in our worst match in our brief history thus far. Grade: E-

 

Otsune Tsumura has a microphone, and tears into Kuniko Matsura, telling her that she is going to get easily beaten in their upcoming match just like she was thrown around in 5SSW in their match in May where Tsumura squashed Matsura. Tsumura continues to diss TI's Women's dvision, saying it's full of little girls and princesses and hypes up the 5SSW, the leading Women's wrestling promotion in the world. Grade: D-

 

Semi-Final, Women #2: Kuniko Matsura defeated Otsune Tsumura in 11:54 by pinfall with a Twisting Face Crusher following interference from Amber Allen who was outraged of Tsumura's promo before the match. Grade: E

 

SUKI comes down to the ring. He takes a microphone and starts trash talking the crowd, before eventually getting interupted by Madman Boone who tells SUKI to shut up, ordering him to start the match against him right away. Grade: E+

(Madman Boone had major problems due to the language barrier.. Oops..)

Semi-Final, Men #1: Madman Boone defeated SUKI in a 1 vs 1 Ladder match in 14:38 when Madman Boone retrieved the item. Grade: D

 

Semi-Final, Men #2: Takesi Umehara defeated Masked Cougar in a 1 vs 1 Ladder match in 18:28 when Takesi Umehara retrieved the item. Grade: D+

 

 

Overall Grade: D

 

 

Kinuye Mushashibo will face Kuniko Matsura for the TI: Women's World championship title while Madman Boone will face Takesi Umehara for the TI: World title on our next show in August, called "TI: La Llama Es Una Quadrupido".

 

 

Notes: The best match and best show this far! Our opener on the other hand was the worst match, I have no idea how it bombed the way it did. Atleast Mushashibo jumped up to E- from F. Tsumura vs. Matsura was another letdown, I believe that Tsumura's non-existing momentum was the reason for the bad quality in the match. We forgot that Madman Boone didn't speak Japanese so that segment bombed aswell but the match saved a lot as it received a nice D. Our Main event was the best in our brief history with Umehara def. Cougar in a nice ladder match for the Finals for the World title.

Following "Donkays On Cocaice, RUN!!" show, we jumped back to Small size. As June changed to July, there was no Regional Battle in Japan and our first six months were over. Rising to Small size really boosted up our sponsorship money (with ~9,000$) so expect more shows in the upcoming tours!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

End Of Tour Notes:

 

Total of 2 Shows: D- & D

Popularity in Kinki: +1.2 = 12.4% = F+

Prestige: +16.2 = 16.4% = F+ (Rise in Size)

Financial Performance: +3,512$ in Apr, +165$ in May, +9,176$ in Jun which leaves us with +20,711$ to start our third tour in August.

 

 

 

 

 

Worker Gimmick & Momentum figures for the debuting workers:

 

Connie Morris, (Wo)man On A Mission: C+. Momentum: C-

Flemmy Lemming, Genious: D+. Momentum: E+

Kinyue Mushashibo, Secretary: C+. Momentum: D

Madman Boone, Bitter Veteran: C+. Momentum: F+ (That first bad angle bombed that bad)

Masked Cougar, Loner: C+. Momentum: D+

Otsune Tsumura, Prima Donna: B. Momentum: D-

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After the tour we signed Nathaniel Ca$ino, Etsuko Arihyoshi and Ryushi Sato into PPA-deals. :cool:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

http://koti.mbnet.fi/sadhappy/TI/Nathaniel.jpg

 

Nathanial Ca$ino, 21

 

 

 

Bio: "The Gambler" Nathanial Ca$ino is a charismatic high flier from Reno. Always sharply dressed on his way to the ring, he resembles a manager more than a wrestler, but once he removes his entrance attire and gets down to business, he quickly changes people's opinions. A solid cruiserweight, he also has some sharp mat wrestling skills, and rounds off the entire package with good microphone skills. He is definitely one to watch for the future.

 

Gimmick: Hustler

 

Skill Levels: E- D- D+ B- C C-

 

Popularity: F-

 

Personality: Humble, ruthless, optimistic, manipulative and mercenary

 

Contract: 150$ + Travel (120$)

 

Thoughts: Nathaniel has amazing entertainment skills and not that bad performance skills. Once again the only thing that worries me is his personality and if he starts causing trouble, he's out quicker than I'm from internet poker tourneys.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

http://koti.mbnet.fi/sadhappy/TI/Etsuko.jpg

 

Etsuko Arihyoshi, 20

 

 

Bio: Etsuko Arihyoshi is a joshi wrestler who graduated the dojo system with a reputation for technical excellence. Some of her trainers have even gone so far as to say she has the potential to become the finest chain wrestler in the world if she keeps her discipline and work ethic. She is particularly noted for her vast array of submission holds, chief amongst them being the Arihyoshi Lockdown, a wonderful cross between a seated abdominal stretch and an inverted sleeper hold.

 

Gimmick: Evolution

 

Skill Levels: E+ C+ E+ D C C

 

Popularity: F+

 

Personality: Humble, ruthless and manipulative.

 

Contract: 250$ & Travel (160$) + 5% of Merchandise

 

Thoughts: Arihyoshi will certainly bring some competition into our Women's division but as with Casino I'm worried of her personality. The same rule apply to women aswell, I don't care how good she might be, the walking papers are waiting on my desk.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

http://koti.mbnet.fi/sadhappy/TI/Ryushi.jpg

 

Ryushi Sato, 19

 

 

 

Bio: Ryushi Sato is a young puro talent, a product of the Burning Hammer Of The Wrestling Gods youth system. Not a tall man, he stands only 5'11, he is however quite a muscular guy, and the combination of a low center of gravity and physical power allows him to throw opponents around with a variety of suplexes. He is particularly noted for two moves; the Sato Hammer, a leaping chop to the head, and the Zen Driller, a backdrop driver type of move that he uses as his finisher.

 

Gimmick: Enforcer

 

Skill Levels: D+ D- F- D- D+ B-

 

Popularity: E-

 

Personality: Humble, naiive, hesitant

 

Contract: 300$

 

Thoughts: The worst wrestler out of the three but the most physical, Sato has aamzing stiffness, athleticism, stamina and tougness. He has C+ in Menace which will come in handy if we will pair him as an Enforcer for someone in the future. Out of the three new signings, my money is on Sato as I think he is one to watch in the future.

 

 

 

 

 

Pushes: Nathaniel Casino will be pushed as an Opener, Etsuko Arihyoshi as Midcarder and Ryushi Sato as Upper midcarder.

ARGH!!

 

Sorry guys.. Once again, another diary attempt that comes into an end. I just didn't feel it with this, it's hard to maintain a promotion running when there's no history in the promotion itself. AND foolinc's NEO: From The Bottom Up is just so good (It really is, check it out!) compared to my attempt..

 

 

.. But..

 

 

I have a new idea. An existing fed .. With a (good?) backstory. And emphasis on the backstory and the backstage happenings and not in the matches and booking themselves that much (Like earlier with every diary that I've had). I really want the new diary to be something different than what I have done before, and I hope that people will enjoy it. I will work hard for the new diary and I will not be ending my BBW diary, I'm just running two diaries at the same time. I try to be as consistent with both diaries.

 

The main focus in the new diary will be in the story, the backstage, relationships, personalities. The promotion is question is one of my favourites in the Cornellverse. :cool:
