Rookie Real World

No Nomination from me here

 

Rookie C-Verse/Fictional

EFW: EXTREME FORCE WRESTLING! by Voeltzwagon

I'm a FORCE! fan and a Voeltz fan. Pretty sure the Oddworld will be nominated again, so I'm shining a light on this little gem instead.

 

Veteran Real World

No Nomination from me here

 

Veteran C-Verse/Fictional

The return of RMW/CWL in The Summit by Historian.

The Climb was a wonderful diary and as shocking as it was to see it end once it hit National size, it was equally shocking to have a sequel come back out of nowhere.

 

Showcase

The OWC album in The Oddworld by Bigelow Cartwheel

I love assigning entrance songs to wrestlers and this was a great way to showcase these without spamming them during shows or adding links to a roster listing in the opening post. The picks are great fits for his characters and this is coming after an ongoing joke about OWC merchandise, so it was built up perfectly.

 

Match

Orcus vs (Donde Esta) La Pollo! for the CTUC Bucket of Blood title @ CTUC Thankskilling in Chi-Town Urban Combat by DarK_RaideR

I try to avoid nominating myself, but La Pollo was literally a cult hero smash hit out of nowhere and I've spent my Showcase vote already. CTUC established EL CHUPACABRA! as a cult icon, but that was intentional. When he got sidelined with an injury, I brought in The Man-Eating Chicken to fill in for him and keep the feud going until his return. It was a short term deal until the return from injury (also because TMEC is a Freelancer) and I was just looking for an appropriately silly, monstrous gimmick, but he did seem to strike a nerve with my reading audience and they came up with all sorts of ideas, from his entrance theme to his song and I ran with them, so this nomination is mainly driven by the desire to highlight the wonderful things that can come from the writer-reader interaction. Pollo blazed bright and this was his highest moment, competing for the hardcore midcard title only to be written out after he was thrown into a meat processor to become chicken nuggets.

 

Event

Hotlanta Hussle in SCCW Reborn: The Last Rebels by Historian and DarK_RaideR

Doing this diary is an honor, it is fun and a nicely working experiment on co-booking and co-writing a promotion. We booked the show's card right after our first PPV Tenneessee Tussle so we'd know what to build up towards, then did the 4 weekly TV episodes to get there. It's been a wonderful ride and I do believe it shows in the outcome

Rookie Real World This is a tough call! I'm enjoying a lot of different Real World diaries right now and I think all of them qualify as Rookies under the new rules.

 

All Elite Wrestling by Levinux. Consistently fun to follow and always spurs some good discussion. I have legit watched AEW and gotten confused because I was thinking of Levinux's booking instead of the real world.

 

WWF 1991: I Don't Have a Catchy Name by ink625. I love the promos in this. Ink has a real talent for aping the voices of coked out icons.

 

NJPW 2019 - Long Term by joshbrady91. I've gotten more and more into New Japan over the last few years, so I really enjoy this alternative take.

 

Rookie C-Verse/Fictional

EFW: EXTREME FORCE WRESTLING! by Voeltzwagon. I'll second this one. It cracks me up.

 

Veteran Real World

WCW: Dangerous Territory by James Casey. Great shows and backstage drama that's conveyed in a way that no one else does. Feels like I'm reading Flair's auto-biography.

 

Veteran C-Verse/Fictional

The Oddworld by Bigelow Cartwheel. As a pretty new follower of diaries, I just discovered this in January. I stopped reading the updates so I could start from the beginning. So good.

 

The Summit by Historian. I'll also second this one. I missed out on The Climb. Reading this, I understand the hype.

 

Showcase

Overall Presentation in Lucha Libre AAA Worldwide by Hollywood. This looks so slick. Really pulls me into an area of the wrestling world I don't know much about.

 

Match

Giant Baba vs Stan Hansen @ Champions Carnival in All Japan Pro Wrestling (1983): The King's Road to Glory by Rogue. As a reader, I tend to prefer my match write-ups short and sweet, but this one really stuck out to me. Paid off the build up and surprised a lot of readers.

 

Event

The Wrestling Classic: Block D in The Rip Chord Invitational by codey_v2. Wanted to give some love to this diary which does a great job of establishing characters before they're unceremoniously dumped from a massive tournament.

Rookie Real World

 

World Wonder Ring STARDOM by joshbrady91 - a fun start in a genre that isn't overly exposed on here - JOSHI

 

Knocked Out by edgehead7 - another new Women's wrestling focussed diary that examines an interesting period.

 

Hitchhikers Guide to Wrestlemania by MainOffender - a terrific idea giving us a snapshot of alternate History

 

Rookie C-Verse/Fictional

 

I note this now says Fictional so I'm nominating non C-Verse diaries - if it's not applicable no worries MHero's or VOELTZWAGONS have already been nominated deservedly so.

 

The Rip Chord Invitational: Where Legends are Forged by codey v2 I'm not a C-Verse guy but this is a nice tourney that is developing well.

 

King Of Fighters! by Leohunter who is giving us something totally different to anyone else with this

 

The Last Frontier: Great Alaskan Wrestling by KingBison - his brand of big boofy blokes is always fun

 

 

Veteran Real World

 

Not too many active vet feds in January and I think those that are were nominated already.

 

 

Veteran C-Verse/Fictional

 

Women's Wrestling Alliance [Multiplayer, C'Verse] - a co-op effort between Vet Historian and the entertaining DarK RaideR

 

SCCW Reborn: The Last Rebels [CVerse, A co-op diary] - another co-op effort between Vet Historian and the entertaining DarK RaideR

 

[RockVerse] Chi-Town Urban Combat by DarK RaideR who brought in even more of the Rockverse's unique brand of lunatic free agents in January

 

Showcase

 

[RockVerse] Chi-Town Urban Combat

Orcus murders Donde Esta La Pollo in [RockVerse] Chi-Town Urban Combat by DarK RaideR

 

NJPW 2019 - Long Term - Birds of Prey capture the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team titles in DarK RaideR's NJPW and an old man pops!

 

Wrestlemania V - The Hitchhiker's Guide to Wrestlemania by Main Offender had a great ending to Mania V

 

 

Match

 

[RockVerse] Chi-Town Urban Combat - Chicken Coop Brawl for the CTUC Bucket of Blood title

Orcus © vs (Donde esta) La Pollo!

 

Harley Race vs Hulk Hogan at Wrestlemania V - The Hitchhiker's Guide to Wrestlemania by Main Offender it's just such a great alternate history and this may well be it's defining moment

 

Jordan Myles & Swerve Scott [vs] Shelton Benjamin & Mystery Partner - WWE: Three Brands Part II by The LLoyd - it was just a midcard match on RAW but I popped for the reveal

 

 

Event

 

Wrestlemania V - The Hitchhiker's Guide to Wrestlemania by Main Offender

 

Wrestling Hinokuni - NJPW 2019 - Long Term

 

Something Wicked This Way Comes - The Oddworld by Bigelow Cartwheel thanks to Kikuchi's new gimmick

I was cutting and pasting - I'm not finished. I saved because I thought there might be another internet outage any second so that was being fixed.

Ah, that would explain it. While we're at it, you might wanna move that CTUC nomination to the Veteran C-Verse/Fictional category too :D Also a note to Togg for that list in the first post.

Nominations close in roughly 24 Hours

 

Quick Note...

Thanks to everyone who keeps Nominating and keeps writing. Normally this far into the cycle of a TEW title and so close to the Release of a new Version, the DOTM starts to suffer. Its a credit to everyone involved that its still going strong with packed categories full of nominations.

:D
