RAW Attitude!


Recommended Posts

Just posting here so that I'll know to check back in LOL glad to see you around, my friend :)

 

Good to see you! I would say it seems like ages since you've been on here but I've been absent plenty too so perhaps we've just missed each other!

 

I still mourn your WWE diary.

 

Loved the show mate!! :D MEM makes a ton of sense, as there's a stacked old Main Event scene at the top of RAW. Almost too many great workers.

 

I wonder though, with the new mechanics of the game, and no pushes, shouldn't the group be called the 'Major Star Mafia'?! :D

 

That was my main thinking really, it started out just looking for anything for them to do but now it's developed in my plans and I'm excited for them.

 

Perhaps you're right. Damn TNA for not considering the changes in TEW 2020! If they did then maybe Idolized would have made a MSM logo instead.

 

 

 

Prediction Contest Results!

 

XMultiGames: 5

The Nickman: 5

HiPlus: 6

The Lloyd: 5

 

 

Ok so as Big Mac technically did go down to one knee I was tempted to be mean and count that, but he never begged so you all get the point! Be proud of yourselves.

Feeling sympathy for a lot of talents. Rod Sullivan and The Titans, poor guys. Even Kal and Kian a bit. Loving the over the top characters! I like that Swoop is kind of above everything and plays to the camera and stuff. Very unique.

 

I love the name mixup being played into the show, brilliant. I'm also a big fan of the petty squabbles people seem to be getting in. Someone being banned from a family BBQ is not a storyline I've ever seen in wrestling before, but it works and the fact they're brothers makes it particularly suitable.

 

Enjoyed the Croft/Mac segment too, thought it was going one way but it swerved the other. Looking forward to the follow up.

 

The final segment felt big too, and takes things in an interesting direction. Frogue and Swoop potentially working together and those three do have a Main Event feel about them. I think the name fits them well.

 

It was definitely a bad day for Rod! Part of likes making some of the heels sympathetic, definitely the younger ones like Kian, and maybe some of the LiberTeens. Part of me wants the LiberTeens to just be absolutely detestable and have no redeeming qualities. But I also like the idea that their sort of trapped/coerced in band. I just have to be careful not to do it too much as in my mind the face/heel divide in RAW is as strong as anywhere.

 

But yeah petty squabbles seem to be the base of a few of these storylines! I like the freedom it gives but there will be some more bitter blood feuds coming.

Loved this episode!! I enjoyed so much of it, I had to make notes!!! Hahaha!!

 

I would have loved it if Nicky Gilbert had burst into the corridor and shouted "I'M KENNY GILBERT!!" :D

 

The code of wrestling, and the 4th wall break! oOoooooo!!! That bit was so good!

 

I can still hear the echo of "CURSE YOU LOXLEY ROBBIIIIIiiiiiiinnnnnssss……" Chilling.

 

And that a-hole Frogue, man! Loved Loxley's reaction to him no-showing.

Thanks for the comments guys, I can definitely see myself getting into my stride with the roster which initially daunted me. I like small rosters normally but with me only focusing on the 2nd hour of RAW it's allowing me to flesh out characters when I see fit rather than everyone at once.

 

Prediction scores for Episode 3 (2nd set of predictions)

Just to be clear I'm giving people a point if they guessed Frogue in the tag match, even though he was cowardly enough to no show!

 

The Nickman: 4

TheLloyd: 3

HiPlus: 3

Martell123: 3

 

 

Onto the next week!

 

<div style=" border: 2px solid black";">

Episode 4

Tag Team Titles

God's Gift © (Alexander Banks and Spiffy Stan Standish) vs New Generation (Brodie Lachlan and Matty Willis)

 

RAW Quest Title

Tombstone © vs Lynx

 

With 2 Titles on the line it promises to be an exciting night but there's more!

 

Which member of Main Event Mafia will Swoop take on? (Maurice Jackson, Luke Steele or Rahmel Goode)

Which tag team will split up? God's Gift, New Generation, RAW Giants (Skyscraper and Manhunter) or The Titans (JT Ace and Gladiator)

Which RAW superstar will end the show with the TV Title in his hands?

Really good show, enjoyed that segment with Swoop's potential partners in particular. Intertwined some stuff together and put over characters too. Everybody feels unique on this roster, which is great. Frogue wanting no part of fighting M.E.M was good, and Swoop's response furthers him being a sort of character "above" the show if you get what I mean. Loved that whole segment.

 

You continue to make me feel sorry for heels, haha...

 

"Used up all his savings to pay for the one way 1st class ticket to Milan. Is planning on getting his wardrobe flown over once he’s set up in his Milan pad."

 

Poor guy :D so much hope, was never going to end well.

 

Uncle Ray is an awful man, but another great segment. Enjoyed everything, and the ending was intruiging. Can't wait to see where the main story goes.

Yeah the roster is a little bigger than I would have liked. I've set myself a challenge of not signing anyone to the main roster until June/July. Doubt I'll stick to it, but it could work. You manage it well though, with the two hour split. How will Belushi get back to Australia?!?

Tag Team Titles

Lynx is a player though. Don't count him out.

 

With 2 Titles on the line it promises to be an exciting night but there's more!

 

Which member of Main Event Mafia will Swoop take on? (Maurice Jackson, Luke Steele or Rahmel Goode) I think it's Goode. Steele is the HULK SMASH guy, and Jackson's too good to put himself in this match. That leaves Goode.

Which tag team will split up? God's Gift, New Generation, RAW Giants (Skyscraper and Manhunter) or The Titans (JT Ace and Gladiator) I think I know this one, based on our chat the other day... So I'll PM you my answer on discord

Which RAW superstar will end the show with the TV Title in his hands? In his hands?! Hmmm... Does Kyle Goblet... No... Nancy Garbett...? No wait... Nigel Gorbin... come down and take it?!

Episode 4

 

Main Event

Swoop McCarthy vs Rahmel Goode

I think Swoop needs his win back here, and Goode is the best man of the MEM to give him one against.

 

Tag Team Titles

God's Gift © (Alexander Banks and Spiffy Stan Standish) vs New Generation (Brodie Lachlan and Matty Willis)

I reckon God’s Gift will hold the title a little bit longer yet

 

RAW Quest Title

Tombstone © vs Lynx

As will Tombstone, he’s got a date with destiny (ie Kenny Gilbert)

 

With 2 Titles on the line it promises to be an exciting night but there's more!

EDIT: Ok, that was supposed to say “Gilbert”, but I’m going to allow it

Another fun and entertaining show. I was surprised that I felt zero sympathy for Croft, but he started it, so he got what he deserves.

 

Main Event Mafia have a really good dynamic, I like how everything is pretty tongue-in-cheek, it suits RAW well I think. Also interested to see where the TV title storyline goes, liked the dynamic between the two.

I've been quiet for the last couple of shows, but I really enjoy what you're doing here!

 

It's really great to have you!

That's good, part of me questioned whether Big Mac isn't a bit of an asshole here, after all Croft may not win father of the year, but you know he is paying the child support... for all we know he's not done anything that wrong. But like you say my idea was that Croft started this whole digging up secrets thing, this was just Big Mac responding eye for eye style. Either way the story is just getting going!

 

It's definitely plenty tongue-in-cheek, I know sometimes that's gonna end up being hit or miss. If you have lots of wacky characters and weird situations every so often one is just going to either be a bad idea, or be written bad and just not work. But RAW i'd prefer to just go with that, and be as unique a product as possible.

 

 

So spoilers now if you haven't yet read episode 4 above!

 

Prediction contest

Portlius: 1/6 (although in your defense all your predictions made sense and I liked the JT idea)

The Nickman: 3/6

TheLloyd: 3/6

 

Not surprised it was a lower scoring week. Lynx was definitely an upset. This was mostly because I want Tombstone free for a different story coming up that he doesn't need the title for.

 

And I'm also not surprised nobody picked the RAW Giants. In a way it was out of the blue, but again it's a case of this booking decision being influenced by some future plans I have. I definitely did toy with the idea of giving them a bigger send off, but I also liked the idea behind that angle, with it being pretty much opposite to most dramatic tag team splits in wrestling. Although that's not to say it's necessarily the last time their stories will cross.

<p>Right, as always, I've had to make some notes here as I read, otherwise I wouldn't remember all the 'good s**t' I read <img alt=":D" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p>

Swoop's nicknames for the MEM. Reminded me of The Rock when The NWO showed up in WWE and he did the diesel actions etc. The Swoop stuff was done of course, without actions, just words. I thought this was great.</p><p> </p><p>
