No story update this time. I just wanted to note that I'm going to try shifting to a format more like what I had in mind before I started. You'll see what I mean next time. Basically it'll just be Bret summarizing how the storylines have progressed before each PPV. <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-username="James The Animator" data-cite="James The Animator" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="43035" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>How long is he under contract for? Surely it wouldn't cost that much money to fire him.</div></blockquote> It wouldn't, no, but I don't feel any need to do it. I'll just use him as occasional jobber fodder until he eventually quits (which I'm betting will happen before his contract expires, because he's still got over two years left.) <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-username="NathanielKern" data-cite="NathanielKern" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="43035" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>It was a relatively short lived thing and because the last time it was referenced was just before the company really started to take off not a ton of people gave it much credence; interestingly if you watch the 95 induction ceremony (I think it was Starrcade?

I happened to rent that show on VHS years and years ago, which is probably why I chose to bring the HOF back with Slamboree as opposed to imitating what WWE does now and moving it to Starrcade.

It's very appropriate for Dusty to be bandaged in his HOF photo - hardly the first willing bleeder in wrestling, but one of the best for raising drama that way.

I hadn't expected to surpass Vince overnight or anything, but it was still a bit disappointing to see how much ground we still have to make up when it comes to establishing stars, stars on the level that make casual fans tune in. If Rocky went to Hollywood full-time this would be a very different fight, but as things currently stand, we're going to have a tough time matching the kind of drawing power that guy brings to the table. We're a lot closer in Japan though, and that's in large part due to the great television exposure we've had over there with TV Asahi. Our coverage in the US was well below that level until recently, but hopefully we'll see the deal with USA Network pay dividends in the future. It's the future that I believe in. It's the guys like Rey Mysterio Jr., CM Punk and Jeff Hardy who will lead the way in WCW's future. But what about the present? Is there something I could do, a move I could make, a star I could acquire, that could bridge the gap right now and let us go toe to toe with Vince immediately? Time to give it some thought. I hear that several of Vince's wrestlers are due for renegotiation over the next month or so. Maybe one of them could be a difference maker? Or maybe there's a free agent out there who could draw some new eyeballs to Nitro? <hr noshade size=3> ....And we're back! A new year, and a new format incoming for Heart and Soul. You'll see it in my next post, which will be the setup for Unified. <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-username="JMike" data-cite="JMike" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="43035" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>I second this, he's above average on the mic.</div></blockquote> "Above Average" is actually a pretty fitting description of his microphone skills in the game. Only slightly above average though, and there's nothing else about him that reaches that level. Aside from that, I never really cared about him. <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-username="James Casey" data-cite="James Casey" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="43035" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>It's very appropriate for Dusty to be bandaged in his HOF photo - hardly the first willing bleeder in wrestling, but one of the best for raising drama that way.</div></blockquote> Hence all the scar tissue on his forehead!

So a big thank you to TFC for giving me the opportunity to book WrestleMania XIX, I had a blast. So without further ado I present to you WrestleMania!

WWE’s nineteenth edition of WrestleMania emanated out of the Memphis Liberty Bowl in front of a sold out crowd of 50,000 people. There was a lot of talk at just how WWE’s first WrestleMania following Stone Cold Steve Austin’s departure (and subsequent arrival in WCW) would go but it’s safe to say that the show lived up to WrestleMania’s past.

The opening contest saw X-Pac attempt to topple the Big Red Machine Kane. Kane has tormented X-Pac for weeks after X-Pac challenged him to try and prove that he can go with anyone in the WWE but the underdog bit off more than he could chew. Despite a valiant effort by the Degenerate Kane planted him to the mat with a Chokeslam to pick up the victory in the opener. Following that Brock Lesnar finally lived up to the potential many see in him as he answered William Regal’s open challenge for the WWE Intercontinental Championship. Lesnar, accompanied surprisingly by Paul Heyman, beat the champion with a thunderous F-5 to win his first title in the WWE.

Last year Big Show stunned everyone when he ended The Undertaker’s streak in a triple threat match. However in that match he pinned Triple H, not The Undertaker, and this years showcase was his chance to set that right. The battle of the big men however saw The Undertaker come out on top with a ferocious display of strength as he hauled Big Show up and connected with the Tombstone to get a semblance of revenge. Following that Test & Albert won their second WWE World Tag Team Championships in a triple threat match beating both The Dudley Boyz and Edge & Christian however it was what went down after the match that stunned fans as Christian turned on his longtime partner, viciously attacking Edge and leaving him bloodied in the ring.

Ever since losing the ECW World Heavyweight Championship Kurt Angle has been tireless in his efforts to take it back from Chris Benoit. The two met in a blockbuster two-out-of-three falls match that absolutely tore the house down. Chris Benoit stole the first fall when he countered the Ankle Lock into a small package for the three but Angle fought back, hitting the Angle Slam to even the match one fall a piece. The two men battled for a further ten minutes, both pulling out all the stops, but in the end it was Kurt Angle who sensationally made Benoit tap out to the Ankle Lock to finally regain the ECW World Heavyweight Championship. After that match it was a showcase of legends as Hollywood Hulk Hogan battled Triple H, a clash of superiority between the past and the present. Hogan’s attitude may have changed in his latest WWE run but his success hasn’t as he has run roughshod over the roster alongside Scott Hall. Tonight however was not to be Hogan’s night as Triple H, fighting for the WWE, hit not one but two big Pedigree’s to pick up a huge win on the grandest stage of them all.

In women’s action Lita was forced to defend the WWE Women’s Championship against two opponents as she faced off with Trish Stratus and Chyna. Lita and Stratus were forced to work together to try and topple Chyna but soon came to blows as the match became highly competitive. Chyna seemed to have the match won when she gorilla press slammed Lita only for Trish to come from behind and deliver Stratusfaction to win her first Women’s Championship. After that Mr. WrestleMania himself Shawn Michaels stepped up to face Mr. Hollywood, The Rock. A dream match in anyones books The Rock and Michaels took each other to the absolute limits as they tried to prove that they were the biggest star in the WWE today. Michaels looked to have the match won when he connected with Sweet Chin Music only for Rocky to shockingly kick out. Michaels tuned up the band a second time but The Rock countered with the Rock Bottom. To make sure the match was won The Rock hit a second Rock Bottom and then followed it up with the People’s Elbow to get the three count, finally answering the question of just who is better between the Showstopper and the People’s Champion.

WrestleMania XIX’s main event saw WWE World Heavyweight Champion Scott Hall defending not only against the winner of the 2003 Royal Rumble match Chris Jericho but also the man he stole the title from just a few weeks ago, Eddie Guerrero. While many people would never have expected this would headline the biggest show of the wrestling calendar just a year ago all three men went in with the aim of proving they belonged here and they did it in style. All three men brought their own distinct styles, Scott Hall bending the rules and hitting hard as he had to find some way to counter the speed and technical abilities of Jericho and Eddie. Unfortunately for Hall Eddie Guerrero is more than adept at bending the rules and he did just that, first clocking Hall in the head with the WWE World Heavyweight Championship on the outside before laying him across the announce table and putting him through it with a Frog Splash! Hall was out of the match from there and Jericho and Eddie went at it in the ring. Eddie however was hurting from putting Hall through the announce table and when Jericho managed to avoid a Frog Splash and lock in the Walls of Jericho Guerrero, despite a valiant effort, was forced to tap out! Chris Jericho had finally, in the main event of WrestleManian no-less, won the WWE World Heavyweight Championship, ending the biggest show of the year with the beginning of the age of Y2J.

1. Kane Defeated X-Pac with a Chokeslam. (C/64)

Wow good job booking Mania! I'm utterly shocked that Scott didn't show up a drunken mess so that probably helped a lot.

April 2003: Road to Unified <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="I3yBlF2.png" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/I3yBlF2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> The Backstories:</div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="43035" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;">The Unification</div> -We've been slowly building to this match basically from the moment we bought GAEA over the summer: the big title unification match, where Manami Toyota puts her WCW World title on the line against Aja Kong's AAAW Singles belt. This is a natural PPV headliner, and after both women came up big in the top two matches of our first Renaissance PPV back in January, I have high hopes here. This match was already made official with the contract signing, so the last two weeks of build were just about trying to get the fan interest even higher. On the March 29th Renaissance, Toyota teamed with Meiko Satomura against Kong and Devil Masami in a big TV main event. Toyota won that match for her team by pinning Masami, but the heels got the last laugh by laying their enemies out to close the show. The champions were kept apart on the go-home show taped on April 1st (aired April 5th), where we aired pre-taped promos from the two women. </div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="43035" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;">No Tomorrow</div> -After Etsuko Mita failed to regain the World title from Manami Toyota on the February 15th Renaissance, Chigusa Nagayo attempted to offer a little veteran wisdom and assure Mita that she'd have another chance at stardom. (A little strange since Etsuko's a 15 year pro, but Chigusa has her beat by eight years, so there!) Etsuko didn't appreciate it, saying that she didn't need any advice from a "washed-up former star." Thus began a war of words, though we kept them away from actually wrestling each other, wanting to save it for this show. </div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="43035" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;">A Devilish Encounter for the Future Ace</div> -We view 23-year old Meiko Satomura as a potential future top star on Renaissance, and we make no secret of that on television. She's in for her biggest match yet on Unified, where she'll wrestle Devil Masami one on one. This feud started when Masami attacked Satomura backstage on the February 1st Renaissance. When asked to explain her actions, Devil said that she attacked Meiko for no other reason than that she could, and she felt like it. Satomura subsequently stood up for herself, refusing to be bullied, and also acted to try and stop her from attacking anyone else. The slow build led up to this being set up for the PPV. As noted earlier, Satomura was on the winning side of a tag match with Manami Toyota against Devil and Aja Kong, only for Devil to put her to sleep after the match. </div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="43035" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;">No Beauty in Playing Second Fiddle</div> -After Toshiyo Yamada won a singles match on the March 22nd Renaissance, Takako Inoue came into the aisle and taunted her, saying it was odd to see her actually standing on her own since all she's basically Manami Toyota's glorified sidekick. Obviously Yamada didn't take kindly to that, and a match was soon agreed to. On the go-home show, Toshiyo vowed to mess up the vain Takako's looks with some kicks to the face! It can be hard to build storylines with Toshiyo because talking on the microphone is not her strong suit at all, but she's really talented in the ring, as is Takako, so this should be a good one. </div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="43035" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;">Ladies' Night in the UFS</div> -It just so happened that the Ultimate Fan Series finals between the Sin-free Society and Satyr's Hopeful Few coincided with this PPV, so it was only natural that we include the match between the Society's Daffney and Melissa Anderson from the Hopeful Few here. They've been at each others' throats for months now, along with their respective partners LuFisto and Nattie Neidhart. That portion of the feud ended when Our Generation beat Daffney and LuFisto on the March 22nd Renaissance, but the following week Daffney confronted Melissa backstage and told her she would have the last laugh by beating her and helping her team win the UFS (and naturally, she punctuated this with a laugh that resembled one of her high-pitched screams.) The finals began on the March 24th Nitro, where Alexander beat Finlay to draw first blood for the Hopeful Few. CM Punk responded the following week with a win over Mortis, so the series is tied at one win apiece heading into this match. Whoever wins will put their team just one win away from ultimate victory, so I'm sure both team managers will be watching this one closely. </div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="43035" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;">Rounding Out the Card</div> -There are two more matches on the show that didn't receive any noticeable build, though we did have some interaction between the women in question on the go-home Renaissance. Momoe Nakanishi will wrestle LuFisto, and that match was set up when Momoe pinned LuFisto with one of her famous sudden flash pins in an eight woman tag. That match also included Nattie Neidhart on Momoe's team and Shinobu Kandori on LuFisto's team, and those two women will have a match of their own. </div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="43035" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;">Show Summaries: 4/5: <img alt="6wq5Uul.png" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/6wq5Uul.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> </div></div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="43035" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> Fan Scorecard: WCW Women's World Championship/AAAW Singles Championship Unification Match: Manami Toyota {©} vs. Aja Kong {©} Meiko Satomura vs. Devil Masami Chigusa Nagayo vs. Etsuko Mita Ultimate Fan Series Finals (#3 Sin-free Society vs. #4 Satyr's Hopeful Few): Daffney (Society) vs. Melissa Anderson (S.H.F.)

Ultimate Fan Series Finals (#3 Sin-free Society vs. #4 Satyr's Hopeful Few): Daffney (Society) vs. Melissa Anderson (S.H.F.)

Toshiyo Yamada vs. Takako Inoue

Nattie Neidhart vs. Shinobu Kandori

Momoe Nakanishi vs. LuFisto

What will be match of the night? Manami vs. Aja

General diary comments/questions/critiques: Manami probably could have a MOTY candidate with the 12 year old in the third row so it will be no shocker that she carries a slightly in time decline Aja to a fantastic match.

X-Pac would have been my second guess on bumbling that show. Thank goodness it was the opener and not the main.
