SWF2K9 Posted April 18, 2009 Share Posted April 18, 2009 CHAPTER I The Start My name is Johny Jackson. Well I was just sat in my room, in the middle of July, when I got a phone call... My story has been a long, long and hard... As a child I lived in Poverty, life was difficult, I was ridiculed by the other kids because of my tattered and worn out clothes, but the worst bit was when I came home, my father... would beat me. I had only one friend, Robert Brown, Although I was 6 when he was 15 I was also his only friend, he was different from the other kids. He loved old school promotions, not like the other kids who had either grown out of wrestling or liked SWF. We used to watch old tapes of our heroes in Japan, and the UK more often then the US, We loved to attend the English Indy shows, but one day it happened... Robert went to the toilet, and my father took me home... he tied me up and... He killed my mother... As my tears fell down my cheeks I threw a chair at him, he fell over and I escaped, I ran away and lost contact with Robert, but managed to start life again in the US, still I watched Japan, But I could never see English wrestling again... I then started to speak Me:Hello? I felt my heart pump as I heard a familiar voice ???:It is me, Robert, Robert brown I am not usually emotional but I started to well up inside and I felt embarrassed as I spoke Me: It is great to talk to you again! Robert: I heard about what happened... you know to your mum Me:It is OK... how did you get my number? Roberterrr.... The hospital gave it to me. I felt my pulse slow down Me:Why are you in a hospital? Robert: Your Dad has only 1 hour to live... ... My heart broke as I heard the truth, Although I hated my dad, I still felt upset... Robert:Well... Do you want to say anything to him? Although I said nothing, Robert gave the phone to my father... Although I was crying I managed to say one thing Me:I hate you Dad, Burn in hell... you sorry Bitch *hang Up* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWF2K9 Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 The next day, I thought long and hard, I was going back to the UK, right now! While waiting for my flight, I got out my phone, I saw Roberts number on the phone... I called Me:Hi, its Johny, I am coming back to Britain, But, I can't do wrestling... oh what am I saying, you must of grown out of it, your 33 Robert: That's great! But I have not grown out of wrestling, It is actually the opposite, I AM a wrestler!... Please... call me... British Samurai! Me: Well thats awesome! But I can't do wrestling, not in any old arena... Robert: Well you don't have to! BUT if you want.. I could use a head booker... Me: HUH!? you're not just a wrestler... you own a promotion!? Robert: Yes it is called ROF... Ring... Of... Fire! like you always said, its so fake its real! Me: Well thats cool! I am sure you'll cope fine without me though. Robert: No I can't, The economy is bad and the industry isn't great, but thats not all, we have competition! MOSC and 21CW are taking over! please help! Me: I said no! I can't go in an Indy arena... My dad got in without tickets! Robert: I have got my OWN arena, my dad... sorry... got rich and gave me money! Me: This Arena... It is exclusive? Robert: Oh Yes Me: I will keep in touch! That was all I thought about whilst on the plane, my first attendance at a English wrestling show... for 15 years! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWF2K9 Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 CHAPTER II The Meeting The first person I saw as I got off was Robert, My only friend, I made others in my orphanage, and one when I was smuggled on the plane that got me to the US, but they where in the US of A still... Me:Man I missed you! So... when is the next ROF show? Robert: Well... If you take up the Job, that is your first Duty, the schedule, but until then we have out last show of our second season of 2008. Me: Well I want to see what and who I am booking! I will only watch the first show though. I saw that glint in his eye as we started to walk and talk... business, after we were talking for a few mins... people came up to us, wanting Rob's Autograph! I looked at him puzzled Rob looked disgraced as he said words we both NEVER wanted to hear him say... Rob: ... For a while I was a jobber for SWF.... before ROF... I was disgusted, he betrayed our beliefs and our oath... Money doesn't matter... I looked at him, and he started to say sorry... I left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWF2K9 Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 I was in a hotel, I saw Rob come in, I was pretending to be angry, but, I may have been jealous... Robert: I know I broke the Oath, but... My dad never became rich, I did... But I wasted the money on drink and drugs, and a Nightclub... It was the only way to make friends... What he did was VERY wrong, but I thought about it, it was his dream to be loved worldwide, as a friend to everyone... even little kids... like me, I grinned at him I'll be a booker... on one condition, you are clean now? When Rob nodded I felt our friendship restart... I was happy and I then asked him about his students a so forth... I felt even better when I heard I would be working with a fresh batch of new talent... The first I would meet is Ricky Storm... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWF2K9 Posted April 18, 2009 Author Share Posted April 18, 2009 CHAPTER III The interviews When I heard I was to meet Ricky Storm, the UK champion I instantly took a shine to him, without even seeing his face, let alone his in ring skill... I trusted that he would be good, a student of Samurai... I saw a tape of him... his skills, Tech wise are grade A! He stepped in the room, I smiled, knowing I had a future ROF Universal Champion in my room Me:Take a seat... Dragon... (laugh) Ricky: so... you are the new booker? Me: Yup Ricky: You have any plans for me? Me: Yes... I want you to be an upper mid-carder, I have seen tapes of you in-ring and there is one thing you need to do to be a main eventer, improve you skills, your mental skills... you have to get inside the head of your opponents! Ricky: errr... Boss, you do know wrestling is fake... right? Me: Yes! What I am saying is... well you need to understand the art of wrestling, make it a fluid piece, not a grizzled brawl! Ricky: Oh... I think I will never break into the ME though... Me: Why? Ricky: My lack of charisma may hold me back... Me: Charisma will NEVER hold you back in ROF, it is all about wrestling... not that crap that SWF runs on their screens... eventually we may do hype videos, but even that will not need Charisma or even the ability to talk! I felt proud as he left smiling... I have a good feeling about Storm. Next is the Universal champ Merle O'Curle Me: Take a seat Merle. Merle: Hello... so what do you plan to do to my promotion? Me: well actually its Rob's promotion.... Merle: Yeah whatever Me: ... so ... I was going to have you feud with an Upper mid carder to try and get them over while, Rob and JD Morgan have a few matches... Merle: WHAT!? That is extremely degrading, but I could make it worth you while if you need mone.... Me: Errr no thanks! I have enough! I just need you to fued with Storm, I need him over he is a great worker with amazing technique... He just needs to get over. Later I realised this comment was not a good one to make... Curle thought he was good. he thought he was VERY good Merle: I will do it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I liked it Then the tag belts http://i589.photobucket.com/albums/ss337/bobfear/ROF_Tag.jpg?t=1240102505 Now for the world title... I looked... I was disgusted, it looked worse than the SWF belts! so I got to work!... after 7 hours of my best work... I came up with this... http://i589.photobucket.com/albums/ss337/bobfear/ROFbelt.jpg?t=1240102353 Not great... but trust me, better then the old one!

Nedew Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 You have 123 views, so yes, people are reading this. Just because 500 people don't respond to every post you make doesn't mean you have no readers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rathen4 Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Chances are your repeated bumping with one or two line posts have turned some people off from it. Also, very few diaries get responses. You have to judge it by viewcounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
critical-23 Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Just saw this diary. Weird characters in ROF is a new concept. Rave Vs Martin Heath The Elimination Agents Vs The Shooters Johny J Vs ??? The Masked Orange Vs JD Morgan The Masked Strawberry Vs UK Dragon British Samurai Vs. Merle O'Curle Don't be discouraged by lack of posts. Keep doing your thing and people will take notice in due time. KUTGW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FINisher Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Is anyone reading this? otherwise it will be pointless to continue NO. This is the thing that bothers me. Don't do the diary for others, do it for yourself. You can't have a succesful diary if you look at it that way. If you yourself aren't committed, don't care about the diary or find it hard to do or do it just for the readers.. It's not going to work. Chances are your repeated bumping with one or two line posts have turned some people off from it. Seconded. You have just started your diary, err. You haven't posted a single show!! Just keep on posting, put on a good, interesting shows and people might actually get hooked in and care about the story, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Stranger Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 My first ROF diary ran for six years of gametime and got very little in the way of comments. But honestly, I don't feel I can comment here. Half of these people aren't typically ROF guys. The champs aren't who we're used to. I assume* that this is your roster at some point in the future. Which means we have no idea who's showing progress, who isn't, who's been jobbed down the card or given notice, who's been pushed. We have no idea who's under the Masked Orange and Masked Strawberry masks, or if they've been added into your database. The pics might help, but to be honest I haven't clicked through and back on each one. You're using Photobucket, they supply you with the code you need to embed the pics in the page at a cut & paste; use it. I'd like to see an up-to-date roster with pushes before I comment. * - I assume this. Then again, you brought Ricky Storm, graduate of the British School of Wrestling, forward to a point before the School opens its doors. I could be wrong. It's entirely possible this is just a heavily tweaked database. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SWF2K9 Posted April 19, 2009 Author Share Posted April 19, 2009 Rof Wrestling! wow, this is my first ROF show, and my first official match with a decent company... one with a name, with over 300 people watching... I also have to watch... watch... Watch and learn Martin Heath Vs Rave I gave these guys 7 mins to impress me, they did just that, I felt that Rave carried this match that is not bad, just Martin needs to learn but he has lots of time on his side. Trance at ringside helped get the crowd going... Martin won after a flying fist drop, I think I may, change his finisher it is too 80's, I gave him the win to surprise the Fans Winner: Martin Heath I thought it was an E The Shooters Vs the Elimination Agents this was a 12 miniute match between (IMO) The two best full time teams in ROF, The fans liked this. I noticed some "Henderson" chants, the fans like him, good sign. I gave The shooters the win, Don locked in the Scottish Deathlock and Suicide tapped Winners: The Shooters I rate this a D, a good solid match. JD Morgan Vs The Masked Orange A 13 min bout between two good workers. The masked orange got a lot of cheers, But the fans were chrushed when JD Morgan KO'd him for the 3 count. I also noticed that the Masked Orange, after a holiday with his bro, strawberry, was a little rusty. Winner: JD Morgan I thought this was another D, not great but I thought it was a good match and most fans liked it. Adam Matravers Vs Ali Boxsome This was a 7 minute disappointment, this match had good potential, but Ali underpreformed due to his unwillingness to Job to Adam. Winner: Adam Matravers I thought this could of been a C-, (if not for Ali) but I rate it a D- The fans Boo'ed Ali. good. Petey Barnes Vs Stevie Stoat a 3 min squash for Stevie to make him look good, Damn I was wrong, this was actually a very solid match, this could of been a 2nd main event! Unfortunately it was not, the fans started to really get into it when Stoat hit a superkick for a pinfall victory Winner: Stevie Stoat Hmmm.... could of been a solid main event, will have to congratulate Petey, Stevie also put on a good showing. I rate this a very high D UK Dragon Vs The Masked Strawberry All I can say is, great! this 8 min grapplefest between these two workers was excellent! These two have great chemistry, and after TMS ring rust dissapears we will have them go at it again! I had UK Dragon pick up the win after a Dragon Drop. Winner: UK Dragon I rated this a supurb C- Johny J Vs ??? Now if I am Honest I actually did not know who I was facing! Samaria chose, All I knew was that I volunteered to Tap Out, I could not help but smile as the UK champion stepped out, Ricky Storm I thought for a couple that hadn't even known who they were fighting, we put on a pretty good match, I loved every second of it, I felt we did well, we went all out, I tapped out to an armbar after 11 mins. Winner: Ricky Storm Obviously It would be unfair to rate my own match, Robert rated it as a C pretty good, I reckon. British Samurai Vs Merle O'Curle I liked this match, I think it was Match of the night, These guys had 14 mins to deliver, and they delivered pretty well! The fans, once again liked it, and so did most of the guys in the back, It was back and forth for the most part, but Merle pissed me off, Don't cross the boss... Winner: British Samarai I though this was a very good Main Event. I rated it a C+ I thought the show was awesome the whole thing was rated a C+ this is a great success IMO Other news ROF rise to regional size! Critical-23 got 6/6 predictions he has won a free backstage pass and a PM Interview with anyone on the ROF roster! he can activate this with his PM and I might post it for all you non predictors!

This has really brought a new era into my career, my life... it was weird, although I had been in contact with Rob... all we spoke about was my creative plans... I decided to meet up with him. Me: Hi Rob how are you? Rob: Good... you? I am great, well I am great for someone who's dad just died. Rob: yeah, I suppose. Hey have you met up with Robert Logan yet? Me: No... who is he? Rob: a Friend, never hired him though. Me: Why? Rob: I don't hire friends. Me: You hired me, Aren't I your friend? Rob: Yes you are, Its just, I hired you because you wouldn't slow me down Me: how would he? Rob: well he would be a wrestler, he couldn't run a company. Me: Ok... well I still don't understand why you WOULDN'T hire him... Rob: I would give him a huge push, despite his mediocre Ring Abilty. Me: OK, well now that I am in charge, I'll add his name to the list, lets watch him improve. As we stood silent I remembered that we WEREN'T here to talk about ROF Me: So... What is going on in the personal life of Robert Brown? Rob: Not Much, since the downfall of my Rich and famous period and stay in the SWF, Ring O' Fire has taken over my life, I have a few good friends, I rarely go see them though, In fact the last time I saw one of my close friends, outside of ROF business was a few weeks ago when I saw you again, but before that, it had been years, I think 2. WHAT!? C'Mon! We need to have a Party! We rose in popularity! People in the south love us! Rob: That's the point! people in the south like us! we ares supossed to be in the Midlands! you only give a SH*T about YOUR hometown! Me: Fine. I'm leaving... As I wander through these streets, my mind begins to think, it really starts to tick... has he changed?... you know what? Screw him! I am turning around! Me: Rob... I am taking my 2 week holiday... NOW I left... In September I will be back... and I have plans! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
