Kansas Championship Wrestling- A new, unique concept


Recommended Posts

Hello, allow me to introduce myself. My name is Mike Schaplowsky. I am the founder and head booker of the newest promotion to make its debut in the wrestling world, Kansas Championship Wrestling. Let me tell you about this promotion, because it is unlike anything you've ever seen in the wrestling world.

 

First, let me tell you the idea behind this brand new concept. The other day I was watching yet another ho-hum episode of Impact Wrestling, thinking about the good ol' days of wrestling, more specifically the attitude era. Then after that was over, I started watching an episode of UFC Fight Night (or something along those lines) and I started thinking.. what if, just what if, there was a promotion in professional wrestling that was set up just like the UFC. I'm talking about no bs angles, no storylines, no angles, just straight up wrestling. Now obviously the matches will still be scripted, although I have decided that to shake things up, at least for the majority of the time, the winners of each match will be completely random. I will not be choosing the winners, rather, a roll of the dice will. We will have wins, losses, and draws. Wins by pin, submission, countout, and DQ, as well as double DQ, double countout, draws, etc. All this ties into the most unique concept, the ranking system.

 

First off, you might want to know how I was able to pull something like this off? Well, there's a pretty famous, local guy that used to be in the wrestling business that now is an anchor for ESPN. His name? Jonathan Coachman. Used to work sports for KAKE news, and I had the pleasure of meeting him on several occasions. So, I reached out to him and pitched my idea. Lo and behold, he loved it. He took the idea to his bosses at ESPN, and the ESPN studios funded me $25,000,000 to start my project! The only stipulation, they are in complete control of the company. Which means, any tv shows that KCW has, will be on ESPN or ESPN 2. No other tv stations. If the ESPN Networks ever close (which we pretty much know will never happen anytime soon), then KCW closes with it. Why, you ask, would I give ESPN charge of the company I founded? Very simple. By doing this, I don't have to work for tv deals. I've got one. ESPN will be very, very patient with me and the shows I put on their network. And, the biggest reason? The financial backing. I mean.. $25 million? That is incredible!

 

So that's the story of KCW and how it came about. Now, the next post will go over the rules of KCW.

<p>Let's talk about the point system and ranking system of KCW.</p><p> </p><p>

First, KCW will start with 16 singles wrestlers that will compete in the all weight class division (for lack of a better term). Then we will have 8 more wrestlers that are specific to the cruiserweight division. Then, we will have 8 women's wrestlers. And finally, 8 tag teams. So, do the math, KCW will start with 48 active wrestlers on their roster. Now, every wrestler is going to be signed to a 1 year contract to start out. Once all the wrestlers and divisions are in place, each division will have a separate tournament to determine the initial champion and set the rankings. These tournaments will be divided into pools (4 pools of 4 wrestlers each for the main division, 2 pools of 4 wrestlers for the womens and cruiserweight, and 2 pools of 4 tag teams for the tag team division.) After pool play, we will go to a single elimination bracket. All divisions will include every single wrestler or team from pool play, and the bracket will be seeded by the top 4 seeds being pool winners, and so on. (If I'm confusing the heck out of anybody, let me know and I'll try to explain it better.)</p><p> </p><p>

Now, EVERY SINGLE match will have points for it, even championship matches because after all, if a champion loses his or her title(s) they've got to have somewhere to go in the rankings, right? Scoring system is as follows: 3 points for a pin or submission victory, 2 points for a DQ or countout victory, 1 point for a time limit draw, double DQ or double countout, 0 points for a loss of any kind. This applies to every..single..match.</p><p> </p><p>

The womens, cruiserweight, and tag team divisions will have a top 5 ranking. That leaves 2 women, cruiserweights, or tag teams on the outside looking in, that will have to win matches to get in the top 5. The main (we'll call it heavyweight for lack of a better term) division will have a top 10. This leaves 5 wrestlers in that division that need to win to get in the rankings. Still following? Ok, I hope so. It'll make a lot more sense once I actually get going.</p><p> </p><p>

There will be a tv show every week, probably a 90 minute show. Every other week will have all championships defended, so that means the championships will be defended twice a month. The rest of the matches will be random, and we will have 1 or 2 ranking matches from every division. If a person wrestles in a certain week, he will have the next week off to rest, as not to overwork anybody. The only exception would be if a wrestler has a ranking match in 1 week, then becomes the #1 contender. He or she would also wrestle the following week. My hope at some point is to have 2 tv shows a week, as let's be honest, there could be some inactivity among some of the wrestlers. I will make a rule that says a wrestler must wrestle once a month.</p><p> </p><p>

Rankings will be decided based on 1 thing.. average points per match. Not record, because obviously, a pin or submission victory should hold more weight than a DQ or countout victory. An example.. say we have our top 2 non-champions in a division that are both 3-1. One of those has 3 pinfall or submission victories, while the other has 2 pinfall or submission victories, plus 1 DQ or countout victory. Obviously the one who is 3 for 3 in pinfall or submission victories should be higher ranked. (Again, this will all make sense when the first rankings come out after the tournaments are completed.) </p><p> </p><p>

OK, now that the heavy writing is out of the way, if anybody has any questions, comments, concerns, suggestions, etc, let me know. I will be constructing the roster over the next few days, and hope to start the tournaments sometime this weekend, after the thanksgiving holiday.</p><p> </p><p>

For those wondering, I am using the latest update of the Real World Chronicles mod. Again, any questions, comments, concerns, etc, shoot them my way. I'm hoping this develops a following. It'll be a lot of working keeping the spreadsheets up, reporting everything, and it will be a slow moving dynasty. In fact, it's possible there could only be 1-2 updates a week. But, once thing I will promise, is I am going to keep this going for as long as possible. Hope you all enjoy and get involved.</p>

<p>The booking concept of this diary is very intriguing to me. It might be hard to build prestige for titles if the winners are randomly selected though, but I guess that will make it all the more special if someone manages to hang on to the belt for a while. </p><p> </p><p>

I'm curious about the promotion being named after Kansas. Seems too regional for ESPN, but it's obviously just a game haha. </p><p> </p><p>

I'll be keeping up with this!</p>

Yea, it's definitely going to be an adjustment randomly selecting winners, and it might piss some wrestlers off, so what will probably happen is that the majority will be randomized, and I'll take the wrestler complaints as they come. Some I might change the result for, some I might ignore. </p><p> </p><p> For championship matches, I'm thinking if the challenger wins by DQ or countout, no big deal, but if the challenger wins by pin or submission, then that wrestler then has to roll again, and if he or she rolls win by pin or submission again, then we have a title change. That make sense? In other words, for championship matches, I'll force the challenger to have to win by pin or submission twice in a row.</p><p> </p><p> Yea, I'm thinking I'm going to change the name of the company to something like Mid-South Pro Wrestling. It's at regional status right now (had to do that so that I could get the ESPN networks to negotiate contracts with me for my tv shows).</p><p> </p><p> Anyways, I've got it set up, I've got 2 tv shows that I know will be picked up by the ESPN Networks when I'm ready to start running shows. The next task is to find the workers. Cruiserweights, mens and women's singles I'm not worried about, but the Tag Teams are going to be the hard part. I'm struggling to find 8 active tag teams that I can sign. I don't want to just throw together wrestlers, I want 8 established tag teams. When I get that done, I'll make the shows active and start running them.</p><p> </p><p> Again, thanks for following, hopefully in the next couple days I will announce the initial roster for KCW..whoops, I'm changing the name. Hopefully in a couple days I'll be able to announce the initial roster for Mid-South Professional Wrestling!</p>

<p>The KCW Women's Tournament has been announced, and here are the 8 women competing, broken down into 2 pools of 4:</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Pool A</span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Lei'd Tapa</strong>,<strong>Melina Perez</strong>,<strong>Mickie James</strong>,<strong>Santana Garrett</strong></p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Pool B</span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Angel Williams</strong>, <strong>Madison Rayne</strong>, <strong>ODB</strong>, <strong>Sexy Star</strong></p><p> </p><p>

We are being told there will be a change in the format, as only the top 2 from each pool will advance to bracket play, as the winner of Pool A will face the runner-up in Pool B, and the winner of Pool B will take on the runner-up of Pool A. The 3rd and 4th place finishers in each pool will only go into a consolation cross bracket, if it is necessary for rankings purposes. We are being told that the KCW Cruiserweight Tournament and the KCW Tag Team Tournament will be ran exactly the same way.</p><p> </p><p>

Tomorrow, we hope to announce the participants for those 2 tournaments, with the participants in the KCW World Title Tournament being announced on Friday. Stay tuned!</p>

A note about the Cruiserweight Division, I will only look to sign guys to this division that have the Cruiserweight style, and all 8 of these guys did. This tournament will be ran exactly like the Women's Tournament, with the top 2 wrestlers from each pool advancing to bracket play, and the bottom 2 will go into a cross bracket only if needed for ranking purposes.</p>

<p>Some news and notes:</p><p> </p><p>

-- Kansas Championship Wrestling will now be known as <strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Mid-South Wrestling</span></strong> and all their shows will be based in the Mid-South area.</p><p> </p><p>

-- Mid-South Wrestling was able to get 1 of their 2 planned shows on the ESPN Networks, as Tuesday Throwdown will make their debut in the afternoons on ESPN News. It will be taped Monday night, and will be a 2 hour show. KCW founder Mike Schaplowsky is very disappointed that Mid-South Wrestling's second show was denied by ESPN, as the Disney Media thinks that the company isn't big enough to have 2 shows.</p><p> </p><p>

-- With that in mind, only a 2 hour show per week and a lot to do, Mr. Schaplowsky has decided that each match in every division, no matter what, will have a 10 minute time limit, at least for the tournaments. The plan is to try and show 2 matches from each of the 4 divisions on each show, allowing time for ring entrances and possible interviews.</p><p> </p><p>

-- 3 of the 4 tournaments have been completed, with the Mid-South World Heavyweight Division upcoming next. It will consist of 12 wrestlers instead of 16 as originally proposed. The Mid-South World Tournament will consist of 3 pools, with 4 wrestlers in each pool. Top 2 from each pool will advance to bracket play, with all 6 being seeded 1-6. the 2 pool winners having the most points will get the top 2 seeds and a bye into the semifinals. The other pool winner will be seeded 3rd and will face the pool runner-up with the least points, and he will be the 6th seed. The other 2 pool runner-ups will be seeded 4 and 5 based on points. If they have the same amount of points, a coin flip will determine who gets the higher seed. This is very important as the top seed will face the lowest seed remaining in a semifinal match, while the 2nd seed will obviously face whoever is left.</p><p> </p><p>

-- Give KCW founder Mike Schaplowsky lots of credit, as he is certainly innovating some new things into a wrestling promotion. The 12 wrestlers that will compete in the Mid-South Heavyweight Title Tournament will be announced tomorrow, along with the card for the initial show.</p><p> </p><p>

-- If anybody wants to make predictions on who they think will advance out of pool play in any of the tournaments, please do so. Thanks.</p>

Tuesday Throwdown Preview

 

The initial episode of Tuesday Throwdown is set to take place, and I will run it sometime this weekend. With a 2 hour show a week, I'm going to try and fit in as many matches as possible, so here is the schedule for the initial show:

 

Mid-South Women's Tournament

 

Pool A Matchups:

 

Lei'd Tapa vs. Mickie James

Melina Perez vs. Santana Garrett

 

Mid-South Cruiserweight Tournament

 

Pool A Matchups:

 

Sonjay Dutt vs. Little Guido

Shannon Moore vs. Rockstar Spud

 

Mid-South Tag Team Tournament

 

Pool A Matchups:

 

Motor City Machine Guns vs. The Bro-Mans

Cryme Tyme vs. British Invasion

 

Mid-South Heavyweight Title Tournament

 

Pool A Matchups:

 

Charlie Haas vs. Crimson

Perry Saturn vs. Rikishi

 

Pool B Matchups:

 

D'Lo Brown vs. Gunner

Rob Terry vs. Sim Snuka

 

That's right folks, with 10 minute time limits, we are going to try to squeeze 10 matches into a 2 hour show. Taking into account ring entrance time, that means there will be very little interview time, which is the way ESPN News wants it. More action, less talking. Stay tuned, should be a dynamic show.

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Mid-South Tuesday Throwdown on ESPN Recap</span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

Hi fans, the Coach, Jonathan Coachman here. So, many of you know about the new wrestling company called Mid-South Wrestling, but what you don't know is that us here at ESPN, me specifically, helped finance the company, and we here at ESPN News have offered a 2 hour wrestling show that we will air right here on ESPN News every Tuesday afternoon. The show will be taped the Monday before. Well, Mid-South Wrestling had their first show last night, and I'm here to give you a quick recap of the results, as I will do every single Wednesday night on an extended edition of "Off the Top Rope". So let's get to it.. oh by the way, that KCW owner, that Mike Schaplowsky guy, what a stud he is.. of course, he's got nothing on me, but then again, not too many people have anything on "the Coach" Jonathan Coachman. To the results we go...</p><p> </p><p>

This Pool A match in the Mid-South women's tournament saw Melina Perez pull out the victory over the young up and coming star Santana Garrett, who put on a great showing but Melina was too much, and she gets the 3 point pinfall victory!</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Sonjay Dutt vs. Little Guido</span></p><p> </p><p>

A sensational match as the action went back and forth between 2 seasoned veterans, but in the end 10 minutes wasn't enough to decide this one, as we have a time limit draw, and both competitors get 1 point in Pool A.</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Cryme Tyme vs. British Invasion</span></p><p> </p><p>

Let's be honest here, now I'm not downing anybody in this company, because quite frankly, we own the company and I don't want to lose my job, but Cryme Tyme has a more exciting ring entrance than they have in-ring skills. The British Invasion carried this match, but couldn't put Cryme Tyme away, and we have our second straight time limit draw as both teams get a point in Pool A.</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Rockstar Spud vs. Nick Dinsmore</span></p><p> </p><p>

An interesting match here, as it was supposed to be Spud vs. Shannon Moore, but Moore missed his flight and was unable to make it to the show. (In actuality, I misbooked the match, booking Dinsmore instead of Moore. Oops!) In a meaningless match between 2 guys in different title divisions, Spud got the victory with a little bit of.. friendly help from the ropes.</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Mickie James vs. Lei'D Tapa</span></p><p> </p><p>

Let's be honest here, Lei'D Tapa is going to be an outstanding talent, but putting her in the ring against a multi time women's champion in both the WWE and TNA, not gonna work. A gallant effort, and it looked like we were heading for our 3rd time limit draw, but Mickie James got the pinfall with about 30 seconds to spare, picking up 3 important points in Pool A.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Mid-South Tag Team Tournament Match</span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">The Bro-Mans vs. Motor City Machine Guns</span></p><p> </p><p>

Match of the show right here, and probably should have been the main event. These teams really clicked against each other, and why not? You have 4 incredible talents in the ring. In the end though, the Bro-Mans pulled the upset, again with a little help from the ropes, to gain a pinfall victory and get a big 3 points in Pool A.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Mid-South Heavyweight Tournament Match</span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Sim Snuka vs. Rob Terry</span></p><p> </p><p>

We go from the match of the show to the dud of the show, as neither of these guys displayed much in the way of in-ring presence. In the end, it was Snuka pulling out the pinfall victory to get 3 points in Pool B.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Mid-South Heavyweight Tournament Match</span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Charlie Haas vs. Crimson</span></p><p> </p><p>

Another solid match, as Haas and Crimson battled, and Crimson really held his own, getting a pinfall victory in what many people would consider an upset, getting a big 3 points in Pool A.</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Perry Saturn vs. Rikishi</span></p><p> </p><p>

This was the most disappointing match of the show for me, as Perry Saturn and Rikishi, 2 very knowledgeable in-ring veterans, put on a dud of a match. This match was slightly better than the Snuka/Terry match, but not match. Saturn pulled out the victory though to gain 3 points in Pool A.</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">D'Lo Brown vs. Gunner</span></p><p> </p><p>

D'Lo Brown got the crowd hyped for this one, and it didn't disappoint. Back and forth action as D'Lo mixed in some speed and power, and is clearly the most over wrestler that we saw in this afternoon's show. D'Lo got the pinfall victory after a Lo-Down, getting 3 points in Pool B in a great way to end the show.</p><p> </p><p>

Let's take a look at the quick results, as we had some interviews and other segments besides just the 10 matches:</p><p> </p><p>

<a href="http://s1352.photobucket.com/user/sportsfanmas/media/Tuesday%20Throwdown%20quick%20results_zpslfk3igm6.png.html" rel="external nofollow"><span>http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q647/sportsfanmas/Tuesday%20Throwdown%20quick%20results_zpslfk3igm6.png</span></a></p><p> </p><p>

Well, that's it. Not quite sure why Mike Schaplowsky didn't get any kind of rating for the time he was out speaking to the crowd. Now if that had been "The Coach" out there, you can bet that rating would have been a solid 100. That's it for this special Tuesday night edition of "Off the Top Rope." We'll continue with our Wednesday night coverage where we take a look at the news in WWE, but join me every Tuesday night as we recap the Mid-South Thursday Throwdown show. Folks, give this promotion a chance. The first show was a little rocky, but it was still a heck of a show given the circumstances. I'm "The Coach, Jonathan Coachman", signing off.</p>

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">From the Bookers Desk</span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

Hey all, Mid-South Wrestling booker and commissioner Mike Schaplowsky here. I'm not really sure what you would call me. I mean, I founded the company, technically the company is owned by the Disney/ABC Televison Group, but it's still my company. I built it, although Disney/ABC and ESPN Networks are financing it. Ah well, whatever, we'll call it what it is. Let's take a look back at this week, shall we?</p><p> </p><p>

Had our first show, and it got a strong 48 rating, with 3,188 people attending. Now, the ratings weren't spectacular, as it only got a 0.04 rating, but hey, it's a brand new company, brand new show. We'll get better.</p><p> </p><p>

I could kick myself for screwing up the booking, as I should have had the Bro-Mans/MCMG match much higher up in the card. Of course, with Shannon Moore not being able to make it, that just means that both Nick Dinsmore and Rockstar Spud will have to wrestling 2 weeks in a row. No big deal, but they are on the card for next week. In fact, let's just take a look at next weeks card right now why don't we?</p><p> </p><p>

These matches are set for next weeks edition of Mid-South Tuesday Throwdown on ESPN News:</p><p> </p><p>

Alright guys, my last 2 posts will be the format of this dynasty going forward. You'll get a show recap with Jonathan Coachman, and then some thoughts from me. What do you guys think about this format? Ok? Not ok? Anybody wanna suggest anything that you would like to see me try and add? Take away? Give me feedback, so that I know what to change, if anything.

I like the format so far. I'm enjoying your different take on a [point system for dynasty. Keep up the good work! I'm interested to see who will win each of the tournaments.

 

Thanks. Yea, I'm the worst when it comes to storylines, feuds, all that good stuff, so I figured why not try something different and make it just a pure, straight wrestling promotion. So far I'm liking it, and it seems to be getting a lot of views. I'm interested to see who will win each of the tournaments too. Haha, with rolling for the results randomly, who knows what will come up.

Interesting concept, looking forward to how popular the game allows it to become with out forcing you to break your planned rules, or at least bend them..

 

On the dice off do you just roll highest wins or? (Sorry if I missed that in a post)

I see the promotion slowly evolving to a more WWE type promotion at some point, but I'm going to try this strategy for as long as I can.</p><p> </p><p> As for the dice rolls, I have a specific set-up that I use, that I have no problem sharing:</p><p> </p><p> 00-39- First listed wins by Pinfall or Submission</p><p> 40-44- First listed wins by DQ or countout</p><p> 45-52- Time Limit Draw</p><p> 53-54- Double DQ or Double Countout</p><p> 55-59- Second listed wins by DQ or countout</p><p> 60-99- Second listed wins by Pinfall or Submission</p><p> </p><p> So far the rolls have been pretty good about somebody winning by pinfall or submission, as it should be, since 80 of the 99 possible numbers lean that way. But I've also had my fair share of the other stuff too, enough to make a difference in points.</p><p> </p><p> As far as pinfall or submission, I just let the game decide that. As far as double DQ/countout, or 1 person winning by DQ/countout, I actually try to develop a good scenario for that which makes sense, as you'll see in one of the matches in the show I'm about to post.</p><p> </p><p> Thanks for following.

<p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Mid-South Tuesday Throwdown on ESPN News Recap</span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

Hello fans, "The Coach" Jonathan Coachman back with another edition of MSW Off The Top Rope. Mid-South Wrestling held their second show last night, and it aired on ESPN News earlier this afternoon. For those of you who couldn't see it, here's a short recap:</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Mid-South Tag Team Tournament Match</span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

<a href="http://s1352.photobucket.com/user/sportsfanmas/media/blue%20world%20order_zpstkxmybvh.png.html" rel="external nofollow"><span>http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q647/sportsfanmas/blue%20world%20order_zpstkxmybvh.png</span></a> vs. <a href="http://s1352.photobucket.com/user/sportsfanmas/media/von%20erichs_zpsuibjhlsd.png.html" rel="external nofollow"><span>http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q647/sportsfanmas/von%20erichs_zpsuibjhlsd.png</span></a></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Blue World Order vs. The Von Erichs</span></p><p> </p><p>

Probably a good match to start the show with, as the Von Erichs are still pretty green, while the Blue World Order is more of a comedy act, in "The Coaches" opinion that is. This one was a snooze fest, and it ended with both teams being counted out of the ring. The double count-out gives both teams 1 point in Pool B.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Mid-South Women's Tournament Match</span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

<a href="http://s1352.photobucket.com/user/sportsfanmas/media/Untitled_zps83ib2nzj.png.html" rel="external nofollow"><span>http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q647/sportsfanmas/Untitled_zps83ib2nzj.png</span></a> vs. <a href="http://s1352.photobucket.com/user/sportsfanmas/media/sexy%20star_zpsxs0lq7vb.png.html" rel="external nofollow"><span>http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q647/sportsfanmas/sexy%20star_zpsxs0lq7vb.png</span></a></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Madison Rayne vs. Sexy Star</span></p><p> </p><p>

Sexy Star has made a name for herself in Lucha Underground where she briefly held that companies main title. But here in MSW, she is facing a full women's division stacked with wrestlers that have won multiple titles. While she put up a gallant effort, Madison dispatched her with little trouble, earning 3 points in Pool B.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Mid-South Cruiserweight Tournament</span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

<a href="http://s1352.photobucket.com/user/sportsfanmas/media/spike%20dudley_zpseozb8bi5.png.html" rel="external nofollow"><span>http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q647/sportsfanmas/spike%20dudley_zpseozb8bi5.png</span></a> vs. <a href="http://s1352.photobucket.com/user/sportsfanmas/media/christian%20york_zpscdxvvfwr.png.html" rel="external nofollow"><span>http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q647/sportsfanmas/christian%20york_zpscdxvvfwr.png</span></a></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Spike Dudley vs. Christian York</span></p><p> </p><p>

Everybody remembers little Spike Dudley as "The Big Man Killer" in ECW. Nobody will ever forget when he upset Bam Bam Bigelow. This is a new ballgame though, and he's lost a step or 2, while Christian York is in his prime. York got the pinfall in this one, earning 3 points in Pool B.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Mid-South Cruiserweight Tournament</span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

<a href="http://s1352.photobucket.com/user/sportsfanmas/media/gregory%20helms_zps2oa4taro.png.html" rel="external nofollow"><span>http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q647/sportsfanmas/gregory%20helms_zps2oa4taro.png</span></a> vs. <a href="http://s1352.photobucket.com/user/sportsfanmas/media/mike%20mondo_zpswtjniupe.png.html" rel="external nofollow"><span>http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q647/sportsfanmas/mike%20mondo_zpswtjniupe.png</span></a></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Gregory Helms vs. Mike Mondo</span></p><p> </p><p>

I have very fond memories of both these competitors, as Gregory Helms had the great Hurricane Helms gimmick in WWE, while Mike Mondo was part of the Spirit Squad. If you remember, the Spirit Squad helped me and the boss, Mr. McMahon, in our feud against DX. Come to think of it, those weren't the finest moments in my WWE career.... moving on. Helms took this one, earning 3 point in Pool B. Excuse me for a minute while I go get sick thinking of some of the DX shenanigans that were pulled on "The Coach".</p><p> </p><p>

*brief pause as Coach runs off screen, looking quite pale. After a couple minute the Coach comes back, looking rejuvenated*. Sorry about that guys, I just left a nasty message on HBK's phone. Boy do I feel better now. And you know what, if WWE cans me from doing their WWE Off the Top Rope segment, I still have MSW Off the Top Rope. Moving on to our next match:</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Mid-South Women's Tournament Match</span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

<a href="http://s1352.photobucket.com/user/sportsfanmas/media/angel%20williams_zpsjblyirlg.png.html" rel="external nofollow"><span>http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q647/sportsfanmas/angel%20williams_zpsjblyirlg.png</span></a> vs. <a href="http://s1352.photobucket.com/user/sportsfanmas/media/odb_zpsywhx29pg.png.html" rel="external nofollow"><span>http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q647/sportsfanmas/odb_zpsywhx29pg.png</span></a></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Angel Williams vs. ODB</span></p><p> </p><p>

These 2 had some battles in TNA, as many of you might know Angel as Angelina Love. This one was a classic, as they renewed their TNA rivalry. It got intense, but in the end, it was ODB getting the pin to earn 3 points in Pool B.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Mid-South Cruiserweight Tournament Match</span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Shannon Moore vs. Rockstar Spud</span></p><p> </p><p>

I'm just going to say this now, the Dinsmore/Spud match last week has been stricken from the record books, pretend it never happened. Officially, this is the first MSW match for Spud. However, that violent, aggressive side that he carried in TNA carried over to this match, as he got himself DQed after kicking Moore where the sun don't shine. Moore gets the 2 points for a disqualification victory, but you can bet he'd trade those 2 points if it meant him not getting kicked down low. Those 2 points are good enough to put him in the Pool A lead right now.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Mid-South Tag Team Tournament Match</span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

<a href="http://s1352.photobucket.com/user/sportsfanmas/media/all-night%20express_zps61mkhnf3.png.html" rel="external nofollow"><span>http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q647/sportsfanmas/all-night%20express_zps61mkhnf3.png</span></a> vs. <a href="http://s1352.photobucket.com/user/sportsfanmas/media/LAX_zpsxsfwir0y.png.html" rel="external nofollow"><span>http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q647/sportsfanmas/LAX_zpsxsfwir0y.png</span></a></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">All-Night Express vs. LAX</span></p><p> </p><p>

These 2 teams, plus the Motor City Machine Guns are easily the top 3 teams in Mid-South Wrestling right now. This was a hard hitting match. Anybody remember Hernandez and Homicide from their TNA days. Aggressive man, aggressive. However, they were outsmarted by the All-Night Express in this one as Homicide tried to pin the illegal man. The ref, for once, was right on top of it, and Kenny King finished off Homicide to get the 3 points for the Express and take the lead in Pool B.</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Mr. Anderson vs. Nick Dinsmore</span></p><p> </p><p>

Before the match, Mr. Anderson came out with his trademark entrance, and believe it or not, it got the highest rating of anything on the show, match, interview, entrance, all of it. The match itself was an absolute slaughter, as Anderson was all over Dinsmore from the start. He just couldn't put Dinsmore away though, and ended up getting himself disqualified when he wouldn't let go of a choke after 5 seconds. Dinsmore, despite being dominated the entire match, gets the 2 points for a DQ victory. After the match, he went full Eugene mode, running around the ring like a complete imbecile, celebrating about the cheapest victory you could possibly have. Remember the Eugene character from WWE? I think I'm gonna be sick again.</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Buff Bagwell vs. Carlito</span></p><p> </p><p>

This was the final match of last nights show, and Buff Bagwell is clearly looking aged. Definitely not the same Buff Bagwell I remember watching in WCW. It showed in the ring too, as Carlito got the pinfall to get the 3 points in Pool B.</p><p> </p><p>

Here's a look at the quick results, which covers all the matches and angles in the show:</p><p> </p><p>

Another average show, but what do you expect, it's a new company. I think once the MSW boss Mr. Schaplowsky figures out exactly who are the hottest draws, and books those matches in the right spot in the card, he'll have better results. He must not always assume that the Mid-South Heavyweight matches should end the card, as evidenced by the Bagwell/Carlito affair. He'll get it figured out, I have faith in the man.</p><p> </p><p>

*Coach's cell phone rings, and the look on his eyes tells everybody exactly who is calling him... HBK* Uh, I gotta go guys, this is the Coach, and if I'm not here next week, you'll know why. Signing off, hopefully I'll see you all next week. *fade to black*</p>

<p>Mid-South Tuesday Throwdown Episode #2 earned a rating of 44, down from the first show, but the tv rating was an 0.05. That is good, it drew some more fans. I still have some work to do as far as putting matches in the right spots, and I totally screwed up with the women's division, as on the product page, I had the women's wrestling option set as none, so the fans were ticked to see the women on the first 2 shows. That has now been fixed, and I expect the rest of the shows to have a much higher rating.</p><p> </p><p>

Also, we are going to hire someone that has microphone experience, and hopefully good charisma and overness to be the on-screen General Manager of Mid-South Wrestling. This will help when I need to fill some time, by putting this guy on screen to either announce a special match, or something else. That should also help the ratings.</p><p> </p><p>

As for the next card, which I plan on running hopefully on Tuesday, I have 9 matches scheduled.</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Mid-South Women's Tournament</span></p><p> </p><p>

I'm going to do a better job (I hope of scheduling the card so that the most over wrestlers are wrestling towards the end of the card.</p>

<p>I have decided to end the Mid-South Weekly Reports with Jonathan Coachman. With him, in reality, doing the Off the Top Rope segments for WWE, I feel like having him do Mid-South segments just doesn't feel right. From now on, the card recaps will come from the view of me and me alone. Unfortunately, for this last card, I had things all written up and didn't get it sent properly, so rather than re-write everything, I'm just going to give quick results of this past show, and move on to the next show.</p><p> </p><p>

<a href="http://s1352.photobucket.com/user/sportsfanmas/media/Tuesday%20Throwdown%20quick%20results_zpseo9n2px1.png.html" rel="external nofollow"><span>http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q647/sportsfanmas/Tuesday%20Throwdown%20quick%20results_zpseo9n2px1.png</span></a></p><p> </p><p>

A 50! Best show rating yet. And the show got a .04 rating. With last weeks show not being the greatest, we may already be turning people off of the product. I certainly hope not. If I can consistently put together those kind of shows, I feel like more tv contracts could come our way. Of course, the importance and popularity ratings are slowly going up. </p><p> </p><p>

Gonna have to have a talk with Sonjay Dutt. Was informed by road agent Ron Simmons that he wanted a piece of Shannon Moore after the match. Apparently, Moore botched a move that could have seriously injured Dutt. Given Moore's past and who he hangs out with, it's not out of the realm of possibility to give him a random drug tests.</p><p> </p><p>

Several of the older guys just aren't cutting it in the ring and are being totally outmatched with in-ring work. I may have to take a look at this once all the tournaments are over.</p><p> </p><p>

Next weeks show will again feature 9 matches. In fact, at this point, you can figure every show will have 9 matches, at least until pool play of the tournaments is all over. Here's what is on tap:</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Mid-South Women's Tournament</span></p><p> </p><p>

Pool B Matchups:</p><p> </p><p>

Angel Williams vs. Madison Rayne</p><p>

ODB vs. Sexy Star</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Mid-South Cruiserweight Tournament</span></p><p> </p><p>

Pool B Matchups:</p><p> </p><p>

Spike Dudley vs. Gregory Helms</p><p>

Christian York vs. Mike Mondo</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Mid-South Tag Team Tournament</span></p><p> </p><p>

Pool B Matchups:</p><p> </p><p>

All-Night Express vs. Blue World Order</p><p>

LAX vs. The Von Erichs</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="text-decoration:underline;">Mid-South Heavyweight Tournament</span></p><p> </p><p>

Pool B Matchup:</p><p> </p><p>

Gunner vs. Sim Snuka</p><p> </p><p>

Pool C Matchups:</p><p> </p><p>

Buff Bagwell vs. Mr. Anderson</p><p>

Carlito vs. Nick Dinsmore</p><p> </p><p>

Another note, in the card write-ups, I probably won't be doing anything with graphics, as far as putting photos of the wrestlers up. Maybe it's just me being too simple, but I don't feel the need to put them up every time, people that read this dynasty will quickly learn who the workers are. When I bring new workers in, I'll introduce them with a picture. I hope this doesn't cost me followers.</p><p> </p><p>

Also, if anybody has any questions about this dynasty, promotion, anything, feel free to ask. I'm still trying to find a format that works best.</p>

<p>Because of more computer problems, I have another card that will just show the quick results:</p><p> </p><p>

<a href="http://s1352.photobucket.com/user/sportsfanmas/media/tuesday%20throwdown_zpsdnbrtlwi.png.html" rel="external nofollow"><span>http://i1352.photobucket.com/albums/q647/sportsfanmas/tuesday%20throwdown_zpsdnbrtlwi.png</span></a></p><p> </p><p>

The show got a rating of 43, and got a dismal 0.01 tv rating. Yikes! We increased popularity in 10 regions.</p><p> </p><p>

Also, a couple changes to this, I am cutting the shows to 90 minute shows, and pretty much cutting out all angles. I just want matches only for the most part, although I am about to hire an on-screen authority figure that might have some angles when it comes to booking matches or something. Stay tuned for that.</p><p> </p><p>

Also, another big change, I'm pretty much eliminating graphics from this dynasty report. The biggest reason is that photobucket and my computer don't get along, and it takes me FOREVER to upload any graphics. Also, I'm a text guy, I like texts. For regular shows, don't expect any graphics. I'm saving the graphics for new signings, breaking news (deaths, retirements, things like that) and title matches, to distinguish between those and and regular ranking matches. I know cutting out graphics might cost me a little bit, but I'm hoping the randomness of this dynasty report will keep people coming.</p>
