poopykokko Posted August 11, 2018 Author Share Posted August 11, 2018 <p>Hey, guys. So, I've decided to kind of cut back on doing extensive descriptions of the undercard matches. I feel like if I put that much thought into the minor matches, I'd start to burn myself out or run out of ideas, risking turning this diary repetitive. In compensation, I've decided to add more flavor and detail to the main event.</p><p> </p><p> However, I feel like if I don't really write about many of the developing undercard workers, we won't have much connection to them. So, I'm going to ask you guys which match you want highlighted in the prediction keys, and I'll do a detailed write-up of that match along with the main event.</p><p> </p><p> I'm sorry for this, but I found myself to be getting kind of jaded with writing the same sequences and matches over and over. I hope you find this new format even better, and don't worry, the world is still young, so we'll be observing new styles and workers as the years progress!</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cappyboy Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Certainly a different idea for a dynasty and should be interesting to see it develop over time. But I'm not sure that guys wrestling nearly 100 years ago should be submitting by tapping out. Maybe it's my lack of knowledge of carnival age/early modern pro wrestling but that feels way too recent an addition to the squared circle to be happening here. It may be a minor detail in the grand scheme of things. But it was big enough to draw me out of the atmosphere you're trying to create. Perhaps those should either be stoppages or arm-drop submissions instead. Seems like that would be more timely for the era you're depicting.

Joe had a wonderful start in the era by felling the German brute Friedrich Herzog, but then was cheated out of a victory by Levi Andrews, while Suarez failed to capitalize on his speed advantage when he was tapped out by the technician Daniel Loiselle.</p><p> With a surprise roll-up, Suarez gets the victory after playing dead to Joe Boone’s quick flurry of strikes after a series of dodges and counters.

Oscar Simpson looks forward to picking up another victory after his successful debut two months ago.</p><p> Levi Andrews kept his winning streak alive by pinning Sampson using the ropes as leverage when Sampson made a fatal mistake by tripping over his feet and presenting Andrews with a perfect opportunity.

With his recent conquest of Japanese giant Saita Kuroki, the emboldened Henry decided he was ready for another shot at Loiselle’s winning streak.</p><p> o Hungry for a victory over his Canadian counter-part, Henry promptly goes for Loiselle’s legs, tripping him up. Henry then immediately applies the headlock! But, no! Loiselle rolls around and quickly stands up, transitioning into a picture-perfect backdrop! A surprised Henry quickly staggers to his feet and goes for Loiselle’s arm. He twists and turns, but Loiselle manages to do a cartwheel and free himself! Nothing works on Daniel Loiselle! Henry is getting more and more frustrated. Unable to beat him in a technical showcase, Henry opts for a more heavy approach and tries to punch Loiselle. The wary Loiselle immediately ducks the swing, and transitions into a quick armbar! Henry tries to escape by punching the back of Loiselle’s head, but that only serves to anger Loiselle who transitions into a crossface with blistering speed. In clear anguish and without an escape, Sir Anthony Henry submits to Daniel Loiselle again! Loiselle is simply untouchable in the ring!</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <strong>Winner: </strong>Daniel Loiselle</p><p> </p><p> - Loiselle bows to the crowd as a frustrated Henry walks to the back with his head down.</p><p> </p><p> </p></div><p></p><p></p><p> </p></div></blockquote> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

poopykokko Posted August 12, 2018 Author Share Posted August 12, 2018 SPW Wrestling in the South On 14th of August, 1920, Southern Pro Wrestling held their event in front of 99 loyal audience members. August 14, 1920 Ericson Baird vs Friedrich Herzog - The first bout is between German brute Friedrich Herzog and one of the newest faces on the SPW roster, Ericson Baird. Baird made his mark on the promotion by beating fellow debutee Hubert Hartman and sets himself up for a challenge against one of SPW’s fearsome staples. Despite Ericson’s best efforts to outwrestle the strongman, Herzog’s brute strength prevailed as he pinned Ericson after a hard slam on the mat. Winner: Friedrich Herzog Hubert Hartman vs Saita Kuroki - The second contest of the night was between the fan-favorite monstrosity Saita Kuroki against Hubert Hartman in his second ever match for the promotion. Clearly, the owner was not doing the recently beaten Hartman any favors by putting him against such a formidable foe. In an expected squash, Saita Kuroki smashed Hartman and submitted the smaller villain with a bearhug. Winner: Saita Kuroki Oscar Sampson vs Sir Anthony Henry - In the third match, Sir Anthony Henry faced off against Oscar Simpson. Henry was defeated last month by Canadian hero Daniel Loiselle after asking for a rematch. Humiliated and looking to take out his frustrations out on someone else, Don Loomis put him in a match with Oscar Simpson, who also desired to let off some steam after his embarrassing display against the dastardly Levi Andrews. The clumsy Simpson again proved to be his biggest enemy when his sluggishness proved to be useful for Sir Henry who quickly made him tap out to the headlock. Seriously, Simpson has the grace of a drunken sailorman. Winner: Sir Anthony Henry Daniel Loiselle vs Emilio Suarez - For the main event, was a rematch between Daniel Loiselle and Emilio Suarez, who is surely to be on a high after defeating the fiery Joe Boone. The match starts off with a feeling out process, as Suarez is very aware how Loiselle countered his speed the last time they met. As a result, Suarez decides to go for a more technical approach. Suarez proves to have quite the technical prowess as he quickly trips up Loiselle, trapping him in a wristlock and making sure that the genius technician didn’t get the grips on him first. Loiselle performs a cartwheel, escaping from Suarez’s grip. The crowd applauds at the showmanship as Loiselle bows to them, angering the jealous Suarez who promptly plops him in the jaw with a fist. Down goes Loiselle, and Suarez runs the ropes to drop a knee on the back of Loiselle’s head! No! He only gets a two. Suarez has clearly learned how to use his speed to counter Loiselle’s ring awareness. Suarez wastes no time in applying a headlock to Loiselle, hoping to wear the technician down. However, Loiselle is a resilient man, and loosens Suarez’s grip before performing a leg sweep on the Mexican speedster. Taking some time to recuperate, Loiselle goes to pick Suarez up when Suarez rolls him up! One! Two! Th-No! Loiselle as kicked out! Suarez is livid! He complains to the referee. Upon seeing the Loiselle rise, he runs the ropes. Only to be struck by a stiff clothesline! The crowd goes crazy as Loiselle hooks Suarez’s legs and locks in the Crab! Suarez verbally submits, unable to handle the pain he was in, giving Loiselle the victory again! What an exciting bout between two of the finest wrestlers in the world! Winner: Daniel Loiselle - Don Loomis and Frank Norris were clearly impressed by the performances of Daniel Loiselle and Sir Anthony Henry as the two men signed longer contracts with the company right after the audience went home.

poopykokko Posted August 12, 2018 Author Share Posted August 12, 2018 SPW Grows: In order to accommodate the rising demand for their shows and their increasing size, Southern Pro Wrestling decided to increase their wrestling family with four new faces. Kotori Huffman: Huffman was a recent graduate of the US Academy of Amateur Wrestling of Native American descent. He was a nomadic soul who would travel all over the US, honing his craft far from his home in Hawaii. He decided to settle at Southern Pro Wrestling as he heard word of its fabled bouts while he was travelling through Mississippi. Carlos Brooks: Carlos was a skilled technician fresh out of the amateur wrestling scene in Oregon. Kicked out of traditional household for fathering an illegitimate child, Brooks decided to travel to the South looking for a job, until he saw a Southern Pro Wrestling show. Bobby Ray: Bobby is Mississippi’s own. Born to a black family, he struggled to get a job that was higher than a construction worker. In his spare time, he would grapple with his younger brother. Impressed with his physique, which was a result of years of factory work, Don Loomis convinced Bobby to join Southern Pro Wrestling. Kenneth Stein: Stein was a man who kept mostly to himself. He didn’t have many friends, but what he lacked socially, he made up for it in professionalism and wrestling skill. It is not known where Stein learned his technical skills, but wherever he learned them, they taught him well. However, some felt he was too skinny and therefore not fit enough to be a proper entertainer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
