The First 28 Days of 1980 [ThunderVerse Vice Hype Diaries]


Recommended Posts

Hi there!

 

So, as most people are aware, the ThunderVerse team have been working on a historical mod, dubbed ThunderVerse Vice, for some time now and we are certainly chugging along nicely. In fact, this thread marks the point where we are all but finished with the 'opening' of the mod. In other words, everything (barring finer details like employment & title histories) is ready to go for a short-term game.

 

Therefore we're going to put together a series of one month diaries for a number of 1980 promotions so that you can get a feel for the time-frame while we crack on with getting this sucker in the can (sorry, no, we still don't have a release date ;) ).

 

The first installment of the first diary will be up later today, so watch this space and (we hope) enjoy :D

Just to expand a little on MJ's opening, the idea is for us to run the first 28 days as a number of promotions one after the other (rather than as a multiplayer game). So MJ will go first as All-Star Wrestling, the AWC's Los Angeles office which can count Terry Thunder and Guy Lothario amongst its roster. Once All-Star has been completed we'll move on to a different promotion (looking likely to be me running a month of World Wide Wrestling) etc.

 

This should give us a chance to introduce you to some of the new characters and ideas contained within the mod without ruining every surprise at the same time :D

ALL-STAR WRESTLING

http://i.imgur.com/dylO0eV.jpg

A MEMBER OF THE AMERICAN WRESTLING COUNCIL

 

PROMOTION BIO

Los Angeles-based All-Star Wrestling is arguably the jewel in the crown of the West Coast wrestling scene. A founder of the American Wrestling Council alongside neighbour Bay Area, the Portland Wrestling Club and World Class Texas Wrestling, ASW provides the glitz and glamour of the early organisation.

 

Currently under the ownership of legendary Dr Bill Haft, All-Star has a fine roster of both experienced and young talent, with the likes of Guy Lothario and Terry Thunder looking likely to dominate the industry for years to come.

 

ROSTER

DR BILL HAFT

http://i.imgur.com/otL1dlh.jpg

A 20 year veteran light-heavyweight, former AWC World Heavyweight & AWC World Tag Team champion Dr Bill Haft is a master of calculated violence. With excellent brawling & technical skills as well as amazing psychology, he is undoubtabley the right man for the role of top heel, but he
is
in time decline territory. Currently holds the AWC Los Angeles Heavyweight Title and is accompanied to the ring by the Secretary to the Commissioner, Jess Buxton.

 

GUY LOTHARIO

http://i.imgur.com/rkY0Dri.jpg

A 5 year veteran light-heavyweight, Guy Lothario is the former protege of current champion Haft and the pair held the AWC Tag Titles together before their eventual split. Lothario is a talented worker and has bags of charisma which suits ASW well. He also works in the Mid-West for the AWC's GWCW & the South-East for CWT. Currently chasing for the AWC LA Title.

 

TERRY THUNDER

http://i.imgur.com/tK1GcgU.jpg

A 2 year veteran big heavyweight, Terry Thunder is most probably the next big thing in pro wrestling. Already a former AWC Los Angeles Heavyweight & AWC San Francisco Heavyweight Champion and the current AWC American Heavyweight Champion. A solid brawler, Thunder's real assets are his jaw-dropping charisma and his fantastic look. He also works in San-Francisco for the AWC's BAW (the current home of the AWC American Heavyweight Title).

 

DINO MARELLA

http://i.imgur.com/95kqZlZ.jpg

A 9 year veteran heavyweight, Dino Marella is one of the hardest working and best known men in the territories. A multi time winner of a number of regional AWC titles, Marella is also currently on his third run as AWC World Heavyweight Champion. While he has skills that are better than most is isn't a standout in the ring but his work ethic and understanding of the game are not to be sniffed at. He also works in the Mid-West for the AWC's GWCW (the current home of the AWC World Heavyweight Title).

 

RANDY ALLMAN

http://i.imgur.com/nTzJSAo.jpg

An 8 year veteran light-heavyweight, Randy Allman is a charismatic & good looking youngster who could have a bright future in the industry. A great egotistical heel, Allman is average in the ring but he has a solid charisma and a great look. Currently managed by Crazy Lena (see below).

 

ROLLIN RICK ROBARD

http://i.imgur.com/Cu4dcjE.jpg

A 2 year veteran middleweight, Rollin Rick Robard is extremely charismatic, and that alone has been enough to propel him into All-Star's upper card. However there are rumours of personal demons, so probably one to keep an eye on!

 

AFRICA JOE

http://i.imgur.com/SBmFlHF.jpg

A 15 year veteran heavyweight, Africa Joe has seen work all around the territories over his career thanks to AWC "International" bouts. A solid all-rounder, Joe is currently teaming with "Rodeo" Rod Swanson chasing the AWC LA Tag Team Titles.

 

ALBERTO PEPPER

http://i.imgur.com/LRb7Asq.jpg

A 9 year veteran middleweight, Alberto Pepper has a quiet charisma which contrasts nicely to his tag team partner Miguel Arriba. Also works in the Mid-South for the AWC's WCTW.

 

JUNGLE LORD

http://i.imgur.com/xTrpPkU.jpg

A 4 year veteran middleweight, Jungle Lord is a savage who's character is ripped of from a famous novel. A recent addition to the company, Jungle Lord won the AWC LA Tag Team Titles in a tournament shortly after his debut in an uneasy alliance with Prince Nadir arranged by his 'handler' Crazy Lena. A solid brawler and high-flyer.

 

MIGUEL ARRIBA

http://i.imgur.com/CjdZQxC.jpg

An 11 year veteran light-heavyweight, Miguel Arriba struggled on his native Mexican scene due to his size but has become a hit over the border in the South-West with his stereotypical Mexican gimmick. A steady hand in the ring, his tag team with Alberto Pepper works well. He also works in Arizona for the AWC's PWA.

 

DONNIE DOMICO

http://i.imgur.com/i5iRpW2.jpg

A 5 year veteran middleweight, Donnie Domico is an actor turned wrestling manager turned pro wrestler with a seriously cocky and flamboyant charisma. An entertaining addition to the ASW midcard, Domico's mouth tends to see him get in trouble with the more popular wrestlers of the company, largely resulting in his jobber-to-the-stars status.

 

PRINCE NADIR

http://i.imgur.com/cGfohVL.jpg

A 3 year veteran middleweight, Prince Nadir plays the arrogant foriegn royalty gimmick to a tee although he's far from the best in the ring. Recently won the AWC LA Tag Team Titles with Jungle Lord thanks to a deal struck between his 'Financial Advisor' Ernie Savoldi and Jungle Lord's 'Handler' Crazy Lena.

 

JACKHAMMER#1

http://i.imgur.com/4dvzBNL.jpg

An 8 year veteran heavyweight, Jackhammer#1 is a solid brawler who teams with Jackhammer#2 to form The Jackhammers (shock), with the team managed by Ernie Savoldi. He also works in the North-West for the AWC's PWC under his own name of Delroy Brown.

 

JACKHAMMER#2

http://i.imgur.com/pVmUwV8.jpg

A 3 year veteran light-heavyweight, Jackhammer#2 is a decent all-rounder for someone so green and works well with his tag team partner. Becoming something of a tag-team specialist, he also works for in the Mid-South for the AWC's WNM teaming with Lance Bunty under the superhero gimmick of Lightning Leeroy.

 

"RODEO" ROD SWANSON

http://i.imgur.com/ecK0HZf.jpg

A 1 year veteran light-heavyweight, "Rodeo" Rod Swanson may not be the best in the ring but he sure is entertaining and has bags of potential. With Wild-West show cowboy & Hollywood stuntman being Rod's day-jobs he practically lives his gimmick and is currently teaming with Africa Joe chasing the AWC LA Tag Team Titles.

 

ROCK-OUT ROBBERSON

http://i.imgur.com/IEIOnPb.jpg

A 5 year veteran middleweight, Rock-Out Robberson is a well-rounded & charismatic kid who 'gets it' and who has bags of potential given he's only 22. Currently teaming in the lower card with Drum-Beat Dawson, he also works solo in San Francisco for the AWC's BAW.

 

MR DANCE

http://i.imgur.com/N9KMCvH.jpg

A 5 year veteran middleweight, Roger Dance is an English actor turned pro-wrestler who's entire gimmick revolves around being one half of the '1950's stage duo' Singh & Dance with his tag partner Raj Singh. The pair also work in Arizona for the AWC's PWA.

 

MR SINGH

http://i.imgur.com/UiUPmEh.jpg

A 4 year veteran middleweight, Raj Singh is an Indian-American pro-wrestler who's entire gimmick revolves around being one half of the '1950's stage duo' Singh & Dance with his tag partner Roger Dance. The pair also work in Arizona for the AWC's PWA.

 

PAUL MANFRED

http://i.imgur.com/gIBcjIb.jpg

A 1 year veteran heavyweight, Paul Manfred debuted aged 28 & is a Hollywood stuntman first and a pro-wrestler second. As such Manfred doesn't really have the focus required and will probably remain an opener for life, if he even stays in the business!

 

DRUM-BEAT DAWSON

http://i.imgur.com/K2VYoeN.jpg

A 2 year veteran light-heavyweight, Drum-Beat Dawson is a solid rookie brawler who teams with Rock-Out Robberson in All-Star as the front-man's drummer. With solid physical & mental skills, the kid could go far provided he can up his in-ring game.

 

KENNY TERREO

http://i.imgur.com/wauzo5n.jpg

A 5 year veteran middleweight, it is certainly Kenny Terreo's mic skills that have kept him in ASW thus far but the kid has potential and can job like a demon.

 

MANGERS

CRAZY LENA

http://i.imgur.com/GfkorCb.jpg

An 8 year veteran manager, Crazy Lena is an out-spoken and wild force at ringside. Currently managing Randy Allman (who she worships) and Jungle Lord (who only she can control) in ASW, she also works in San Francisco for the AWC's BAW.

 

ERNIE SAVOLDI

http://i.imgur.com/WDNJpTF.jpg

A 17 year veteran manager, Ernie Savoldi is popular up and down the West Coast thanks to his great mic skills. Currently managing Prince Nadir (as his Financial Advisor) and The Jackhammers (as his goons).

 

AUTHORITY FIGURE

JESS BUXTON

http://i.imgur.com/JqJ8CYL.jpg

A 3 year veteran wrestler turned valet & wrestling personality, Jess Buxto only managed a handful of matches before resigning herself to valet work. However she is proving her worth in ASW where she acts as the Secretary to the (unseen) Commissioner and announces his rulings. On his orders she also accompanies LA Heavyweight champ Dr Bill Haft to the ring, obviously against her wishes.

 

ANNOUNCE TEAM

TRENT MACKENZIE

http://i.imgur.com/K36ES7W.jpg

A 15 year veteran announcer, Trent Mackenzie is also a well-known news personality in his native LA. Passionate about ASW, he recently put in some of his own money to become a 'junior partner' in the business (which means he has a long-term written contract despite ASW being regional)

 

LEE BOLD

http://i.imgur.com/6QEPLgF.jpg

An 18 year veteran wrestler turned colour commentator, Lee Bold was once one of the top heels in ASW but retired from the ring in 1975. Kept on in the newly created role of colour commentator, Bold & Mackenzie are a solid announce duo.

 

REFEREE

CARTER MAYHEW

http://i.imgur.com/n32H1Sh.jpg

A 29 year veteran referee, Carter Mayhew has been with ASW since the beginning and is a very talented ref. However now in his early 60s he's probably due retirement soon.

 

ROAD AGENT

ADRIAN CLARKE

http://i.imgur.com/FFHp2FU.jpg

A 27 year veteran wrestler turned road agent, Adrian Clarke is something of a South-West legend and, like Ref Carter Mayhew, has been with ASW since the beginning. However the years at the top of the territory have weathered the man horribly and he looks more like a spritely 60 than someone only just pushing 50!

 

STARTING STORYLINES

The Mentor and The Protege

Since Guy Lothario returned to ASW in September he has had one thing on his mind - relieving his old mentor and former tag team partner Dr Bill Haft of the LA Heavyweight Title. However, with the never-seen ASW Commissioner having put his secretary and mouthpiece Jess Buxton in the Champ's corner (a place she would obviously rather not be), the cards certainly seem stacked in Haft's favour!

 

Los Angeles Tag Fury

Already embroiled in singles feuds when Prince Nadir & Jungle Lord surprisingly teamed up to win the AWC LA Tag Title Tournament in October, Africa Jo & Rod Swanson have paired up themselves to take down the unlikely champions. However, while the gold-holding team was the initially brainchild of their managers Crazy Lena & Ernie Savoldi, the cracks are already beginning to show... not between the champions, but the managers themselves!

NOTE

 

As it is mentioned here I figure I'll explain. To side-step the inability to have Alliance titles we have assigned the AWC World, American & World Tag Team titles to promotions based on a number of differing factors. While this does mean that those title are active in their home promotions I'm playing things to mean that those titles just can't change hands in other promotions and would be mentioned by those men who hold them. I hope you will forgive me this indulgence for the sake of the diary
:)

Having played several test games (and run a few watchers) I can honestly say that if you enjoyed the ThunderVerse then it'll be well worth the wait :D

 

I don't think I could fathom you guys putting out less than stellar work. I'm just impatient and off work for a week and a half with nothing to do. :p

Nice Show, and an interesting roster there.

****************************************

KENNY TERREO

ROCK HARD

ROBARD & MANFRED - Hardest prediction for me. Normally I'd go for the real team, but it's the pre-show and Rollin Rick Robard is much higher on the card than any of the other guys in this.

Guy Lothario cut a pre-recorded rambling promo on the mystery Commissioner and Dr Bill Haft, before focusing on tonight's opponent Randy Allman.

In a bout that had a good crowd and good action, Guy Lothario defeated Randy Allman in 10:16 when Randy Allman was disqualified when Dr Bill Haft ran in and attacked Guy Lothario.

... until security pulled him away. Jess Buxton comes out and declares, with tears in her eyes, that next week Lothario will be taking on The Jackhammers in a Handicap match to 'prove his worth'. Haft grabs the mic and adds '...if you're able kid' before dropping the mic, laying in one last boot and posing with the belt as we fade to black.

If people can predict your show correctly it usually just means that your booking logically. It's easy to have an unpredictable show if you throw in a bunch of swerves or illogical decisions, but that usually ends up costing in the long run.

 

Having said that I'm probably going to whiff on my predictions for this show.

 

 

****************************************

ROCK HARD - Tough call given these teams seem about even on the totem pole. I went with Rock Hard on the basis they seem to need a win more.

vs

SINGH & DANCE

****************************************

PEPPER & ARRIBA - They need a win, and Manfred seems like the weak link here.

****************************************

AFRICA JO - I'll take Jo by DQ here.

vs

JUNGLE LORD

****************************************

*HANDICAP MATCH*

GUY LOTHARIO - I don't really like the idea of a singles guy beating a tag team, but I really don't see why Lothario should lose leading to a title shot. I could see this ending with Bill Haft running in for the DQ while Lothario is making his comeback.

vs

THE JACKHAMMERS

****************************************

TERRY THUNDER - It's hard to predict against Terry Thunder, even when he is against Shane Allman's crazy uncle.

vs

RANDY ALLMAN
