</p><p><em> </em></p><p><em>

Is there a more sh*t upon big angle in modern wrestling history than WCW’s attempt to sell professional goofball/actor David Arquette as their World Champion with a straight face? This is a known fact. However, in the C-Verse, has there ever been an angle/promotional stunt canonized that has been as full of wrestlecrap as the real world Arquette incident? Since I can't think of any equivalents in the C-Verse, the actual Arquette in question will have to do. In this challenge, Nemesis will have to introduce actor/pop culture star David Arquette as an active competitor and get him over, perhaps even as the World Champion, even given Arquette’s wildly odd set of skills.</em></p><p><em> </em></p><p><em> </em></p><p><em>

Use Ronnie from Jersey Shore instead; he's about as much as a star as Arquette was back in 1999/2000, whereas even the mainstream doesn't give a damn what Arquette is doing these days. It's a fair equivant, but one that'll lead to even greater hilarity.</p><p> </p><p>

  • 2 weeks later...

(OOC: Hey all, apologies for the slight delay. As many of you know through our PM interactions, I am a stand-up comic. Recently, through a contact I made last year, I was hired to do some punch up work on an independent comedy movie script. So, understandably, my writing time has been filled to the max with that. But I'm done (and waiting to get paid:) ) and excited about getting back into this. With that in mind, here's a pretty cool reason to stay current in your predcitions.....)

 

 

 

 

 

Challenge #5

 

“Mystery Box Challenge”

 

 

 

 

 

 

I’m going to send the four people who have the highest prediction totals on shows 1-6 a mystery box challenge ballot in which they get to not only choose the challenge they’d like to see the ACPW and Nemesis endure from a pre selected list, but also have the ability to create one of their own. The top four will compete in the final week’s prediction, with the best total predictor winning the opportunity to spring the mystery box of his choosing on the booker any time during the next two pay-per-view cycles. It’s sort of like the Money in the Bank briefcase for readers/predictors.

Remember when wrestlers got into the ring and fought?

 

 

Remember when the only thing that mattered was the World Heavyweight Championship?

 

 

Remember?

 

 

Remember.

Challenge #6

 

“Tag Team Division Metamorphosis”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

By the end of the third month of game time, ALL STARTING/EXISTING TAG TEAMS will be broken up, giving the promotion the opportunity to build its tag team division organically, with completely new teams. While this will be an excellent opportunity to develop home grown teams that are easily identifiable as ACPW teams but will come at the cost of experience and known chemistry.

That's a small damn roster for a national promotion, and also I notice no females...uhmmm.

 

 

We're going be adding about six to eight more workers before the first show, but I wanted to use the negotiation mechanism rather than just add them to the company via the editor. It seems more fair to me, forcing Campbell to have to sign them versus simply placing them on the active roster. That way, he doesn't necessarily get everyone he wants.

 

 

As for the lack of females......well, there's a reason for that, too. We're just not going to delve into it now.

In the Six Weeks Since You Were Last With Guest Booker...

 

 

 

 

……Peter Michaels gives Richard Eisen a quick scare by flirting with TCW about their now open head booker position before parlaying the situation into a vote of confidence by way of a pay raise with the SWF. But then….

 

 

 

……just one day later, Mitch Naess accepts the vacant booking position in TCW, becoming owner Jen Cornell’s first significant hire/business move since taking over day to day operations of Total Championship Wrestling for her deceased husband, Tommy. In doing so, Naess also aligns his promotion, PSW, with TCW as a development territory. The Cornell/Naess regime’s first order of business is supposed to be to secure a long term extension with a young homegrown superstar, but….

 

 

 

….Wolf Hawkins surprisingly turns down their lucrative extension and hits the free agent market without a new contact in place. The suddenly chaotic TCW locker room is shocked to hear the news that Hawkins has chosen instead to go on hiatus from the wrestling business and begin focusing on an acting career. The move leaves the TCW main event scene without two of its three or four usual suspects. It’s as barren as it has been in years. Later in the day…..

 

 

 

….PWC signs a new TV contract (after being cancelled by Sports America following a particularly raw segment featuring cult hero Big Smack Scott and a live shoot resignation by PWC interviewer Tommy Townsend burying Phil Vibert), finding a new home on CBA and moving their programming to Friday nights, instead of the much more widely predicted move to Tuesday’s, which would have put them head to head with both SWF and TCW. They spurned a reportedly huge offer to do just that from USA Sports One who were looking to make a big splash right at the beginning of their network’s international expansion and rebranding. Overshadowing that news was….

 

 

 

……PWC “Outlawed” running to a sold out arena just a short time later in San Diego, CA and features three title changes: T-Rex continues his winning streak and takes the PWC TV Title off of Darryl Devine in the process, the spitefully thrown together team of the feuding Enygma and James Justice surprisingly beats both Brotherhood and Rick Law and Charlie Thatcher for the World Tag Team Titles, and the machine, Koshiro Ino, topples Tyson Baine in the main event to win the PWC World Heavyweight Championship and end Baine’s nearly year long title reign…..

 

 

 

……Additionally, in a huge storyline moment near the end of “Outlawed”, Phil Vibert is chased out of the arena by Nemesis, leading to a movie scene-esque car chase with the owner of PWC; Campbell hammering down the highway in a stolen ambulance just tailing Vibert’s limo. Both men leave PWC afterward, Nemesis for real and Vibert for storyline purposes.

 

 

 

…..All of the attention, good, bad, and indifferent, is giving the wrestling industry a bump; the public’s interest level seems to be increasing……..

 

 

 

…..SWF continues their run of great shows, really reinforcing how smart their keeping Peter Michaels was by having a show of the year candidate with their “Master of Puppets” PPV to close out the month, headlined by Eric Eisen’s third title defense over Rich Money in the month, solidifying the fact that Michaels is willing to hitch the company’s wagon to Eisen long term. Its PPV Buyrate is the highest recorded wrestling event in five and a half years and comes only .03 shy of tying the record mark.

Where Things Were:

 

Major Storylines/Items to Know Going into the NOTBPW/CGC Merge

 

 

 

 

 

-NOTBPW-

 

The main event scene has seen some of the best wrestling matches in the history of NOTBPW of late. However, it has all been happening without the presence of the NOTBPW Canadian Champion “American Tiger” Sean McFly, who has been sitting on the sidelines for the last two months recovering from a concussion.

 

 

As you might expect, Jeremy Stone and Dan Stone jr. have been at the very top of the heap. In addition to winning the Ed Henson Memorial Tag Team Trophy for the third time as a team while simultaneously holding the NOTBPW Tag Team Titles, both Dan and Jeremy have been embroiled in singles feuds that recently ended. Dan tied up his long and bloody feud with hardened veteran RK Hayes by retiring him in an “I Quit” Match while Jeremy helped break in Shooter Sean Deeley, tying him in knots for the last two months or so.

 

 

Johnny Bloodstone, once thought to be NOTBPW’s next big star in waiting, made the jump to the world of mixed martial arts nine months ago and has enjoyed unbelievable success so far, really upping the profile of professional wrestling in the process.

 

 

Steve DeColt has been one of NOTBPW most bankable stars, stepping up noticeably when McFly went down with his injury, filling in the coveted main event spots on their TV programming seamlessly. Yet, even near the top of the heap, Steve has been unable to find his way into championship matches, a fact that is driving him….and driving him crazy.

 

 

Edd Stone, just returning to the fold after a run in TCW, goes on a terrible losing streak and begins acting even more erratic than usual.

 

 

 

 

-CGC-

 

Alex DeColt, the CGC Champion, has been embroiled in a feud with the once again resurgent ELITE, having grown stronger after Adrian Garcia’s departure and the addition of Trent Sheaffer to the core of Eddie Chandler and Dan DaLay. Having dispatched Chandler’s challenge early in the year, Alex has been pushed to the limit by the enormous brawler DaLay over the last few months of his eleven-month reign and is heading toward a final match with the big man.

 

 

The fast rise of Trent Sheaffer, which happens at the same time as Eddie Chandler’s slide down the card, creates a simmering tension between the two.

 

 

Ricky and Jack DeColt have become the DeColt brothers defacto tag team unit, with both men only wrestling a combined seven singles matches since the start of the year. They have taken on all comers, holding and defending the CGC Canadian Tag Titles, on two separate occasions, feuding over them with the tense team of ELITE’s Chandler and Sheaffer.

Not gonna lie, it would have been cool if you had returned to CWF as a national Canadian promotion. CWF just sounds so much better than ACPW.

Dan Stone jr. /Jeremy Stone vs. Maple Leaf Express II –ACPW World Tag Team Title Unification

 

Can never go wrong with the two greatest Stones

 

Jeremy Finch vs. Edd Stone

 

Push Scout! And Edd is already mentioned as on a losing streak, so that isn't going to suddenly stop

 

Jumbo Jackson vs. Damian Carvill

 

One has talent, the other is a hoss

 

Tim Westybrook vs. Owen Love

 

Whereas Tim is a talented hoss

 

Steve DeColt vs. Shooter Sean Deeley

 

Going with the draw as you hinted that Steve just can't quite get it done against top opponents and this may be some kind of no 1 contenders match?
