Winner: Don Henderson

Match: Merle O'Curle vs. Lenny Mochin for the CWW Championship.

Winner: Merle O'Curle

vladjarca · May 28, 2020

Match: Curtis Jenkins vs. Nigel Svensson.

Winner: DRAW

Comments: Dear AceCodey, lemme now if this is/will ever be a viable option. I don't want to see CJ take another L but I'm also on the fence about Nigel losing on his debut.

Match: Vic Walker vs. Lynton Minehead.

Winner: Vic Walker

Comments:

Match: Don Henderson vs. Neil Warburton for the CWW Submission Championship.

Winner: Don Henderson

Comments: Love Neil but putting him over Don would just feel wrong. Sorry Neil, the moment Don eyed your belt, your reign had it's end date set.

Match: Lee & O'Hearne vs. Sharp & Heath for the CWW Tag Team Championships.

Winners: Sharp & Heath

Comments: Just let these guys reign forever, man

Match: Merle O'Curle vs. Lenny Mochin for the CWW Championship.

Winner: Lenny

Comments: If it would go 2-0 for Merle it wouldn't be worth having a trilogy, would it? Hope you take your time building Merle - Lenny III, tho

BornToFail · May 29, 2020

Match: Curtis Jenkins vs. Nigel Svensson.

Winner: Nigel Svensson

Comments: Bring Nigel in hot!

Match: Vic Walker vs. Lynton Minehead.

Winner: Vic Walker

Comments: Minehead might have potential, but he's not getting the win here.

Match: Don Henderson vs. Neil Warburton for the CWW Submission Championship.

Winner: Don Henderson

Comments: Warburton is the best of your rookie bunch, but he could still use more seasoning. Putting the belt on Henderson seems like a no-brainer.

Match: Lee & O'Hearne vs. Sharp & Heath for the CWW Tag Team Championships.

Winners: Heath & Sharp

Comments: Might as well keep the belts on your best team for the time being, even if Lee & O'Hearne are probably your #2 team at the moment.

Match: Merle O'Curle vs. Lenny Mochin for the CWW Championship.

Winner: Lenny Mochin

Comments: Mochin wins to set up the tie-breaker for later in the year or Championship Showdown in 2021. And while O'Curle is great, Mochin is extremely capable to carry the main event (until Heath starts outperforming him).

Neoteros · May 29, 2020

In my game CWW are now on the cusp of complete bankruptcy, looks like you did well by changing the product slightly.

Tiberious · May 30, 2020

Match: Curtis Jenkins vs. Nigel Svensson.

Winner: Curtis Jenkins

Comments: CJ Needs some wins, and Svensson losing a competitive debut match with a top guy in your company isn't going to kill him. A bit surprised you haven't signed Billy Robinson, since he has tag experience with both Nigel and Don Henderson.

Match: Vic Walker vs. Lynton Minehead.

Winner: Vic Walker

Comments: Vic is a weird fit, but I don't remember who Lynty boy is off hand, so that's not a great sign for him.

Match: Don Henderson vs. Neil Warburton for the CWW Submission Championship.

Winner: Don Henderson

Comments: Don's one of the best in ring guys you got, so he wins it here.

Match: Lee & O'Hearne vs. Sharp & Heath for the CWW Tag Team Championships.

Winners: Sharp & Heath

Comments: All four of these guys are real good, but Sharp & Heath have the edge in experience.

Match: Merle O'Curle vs. Lenny Mochin for the CWW Championship.

Winner: Lenny Mochin

Comments: Merle is great and all, but I think Mochin's reign can go a bit longer.

Hey all, for today's update we're gonna do a slightly more in-depth show recap and then there'll be a second part coming either tomorrow or Tuesday where I'll recap news and etc. Let's get into CWW Throwdown!

In a pre-show bout, the team of Jonni Leyland, Leighton Buzzard, Grant Taypen, Gavin Owen and Glen Ward go over the young lion assortment of Gordon Leve, Gazz Vedmore, Jermain Granger, Myles Cross and Mickey Robson. No real surprise here, just wanted to get as many people on the card as possible. It pulls a 33 rating, which is nice.

We then move on to our opening match. 'The Shooter' Nigel Svensson makes his debut with a rather tough task, as he goes up against Curtis Jenkins. Though CJ hasn't been on fire so far, he's certainly still one of our top guys and he manages to pick up the victory in a 43 rated match. Despite the defeat, this is a pretty impressive debut for Svensson, and his Shooter gimmick has received a 'Great' rating, which is always a positive. Expect to see a lot more of him.

Next up, Vic Walker makes a rather successful start to life in CWW as he defeats the young lion Lynton Minehead, pulling a 29 rating. This was also Joy's debut, and she did some good work at ringside which is an encouraging sign.

Third official match of the card is also the first championship bout of the evening, as Neil Warburton defends his CWW Submission Championship against Don Henderson. The pair put on a technical clinic, both men avoiding the other's signature hold multiple times, locked in a battle where the loser will be whoever makes the first mistake. That man is Neil Warburton, as a momentary lapse in concentration results in him being locked up in the Scottish Deathlock. He resists for a few seconds, but finally... taps out. We have a NEW CWW Submission Champion! The match pulls a 43 rating.

Our second title match of the evening is for the CWW Tag Team Championships, as Martin Heath & Jon Michael Sharp defend against Padraig O'Hearne & JK Lee. The contest is back and forth with both teams pushing the other, but in the end the champions are just too good and continue their momentum as Heath pins JK Lee. This is the best match yet, rating in at 48.

And, finally, we arrive at our main event. The impressive Merle O'Curle stormed his way to victory in the King of the North tournament, in fact, he won that tournament by pinning his opponent tonight, the defending CWW Champion Lenny Mochin. Intent on setting the record straight, the champ is aggressive from the off and takes an early advantage, but O'Curle always seems to find a way to stay in there. The 20-minute mark comes and goes, and yet the two seem stuck in a stalemate - until something special happens. A truly breathtaking sequence of chain-wrestling takes place, and O'Curle is able to eventually leverage Mochin onto his back. He gets to work straight away, taking the champ's leg and twisting it into position - he locks in the Celtic Wreath! An agonising variation on the Indian Deathlock, Mochin writhes in pain and tries desperately to escape, but his options quickly begin to run out: there's only one option left.

Lenny Mochin taps out. We have a new CWW Champion.

The bell rings, but... Merle O'Curle won't let go. CWW's head official Allan Round tries to pry O'Curle away, but he only continues to apply the pressure on Mochin's tortured leg. Road agents head down to the ring, along with a few other roster members: Martin Heath, Jon Michael Sharp, Warren Newton and Don Henderson.

It looks like they're about to finally remove O'Curle, but then... the wrestlers begin to attack the road agents! There's an especially violent bit of heat from the crowd as British Samurai, one of the agents who had rushed out to help, is hit with a stiff elbow to the jaw from Henderson. After only a few moments, the referees and agents are dumped from the ring - finally, O'Curle releases the hold on Mochin, grabbing his title from ringside and standing alongside the other wrestlers. Don Henderson gets a mic.

'You're witnessing history right here.'

Henderson names each man in the ring. There's Warren Newton, one of the brightest young lions in the company and a future champion. There's Martin Heath and Jon Michael Sharp, Britain's BEST tag team. There's the Irish Stretching Machine, the NEW CWW Champion, Merle O'Curle. And of course, there's him, the CWW Submission Champion, the Terror of the Highlands, Don Henderson.

He explains that the men standing in the ring right now are the absolute BEST Championship Wrestling from Wigan has to offer. And that's the way things are going to stay. The show ends with some ominous final words from Henderson:

'This is a new, better era in British wrestling. This is the era of The Pride. You'll thank us one day.'

AceCodey · June 4, 2020

Hey lovelies. I'm only a day late!

June

June was quite eventful. Of course, we held CWW Throwdown which rated in at our second best event in our history. It also saw the formation of The Pride, our first stable! As Donny Henderson's little promo probably tipped you off, they're going to be a slightly villainous group brimming with arrogance - but they're very much talented enough to bring it in the ring without resorting to cheating.

Anyway, how'd the rest of the world get on? Well, SWF's Times of Trouble only managed a 79 rating. Remo and Rocky Golden put on a decent 81 rated main event, but the company is struggling immensely when it comes to putting on anything above an average promo rating. 21CW War Drums was an excellent show, meanwhile. Jonathan Faust successfully defended his 21CW World Championship (which he won on an episode of Best of British Wrestling) against Adam Matravers for a 96 main event. Edward Cornell defeated his brother YET AGAIN for a 99. The 91 show rating is perhaps a little disappointing.

TCW scored an 84 with Excessive Force, thanks mostly to the 84 rated main event where Aaron Andrews vanquished Mighty Mo to continue his run as TCW Champion. North of the border, FINALLY, the Canadian Wrestling Allinace have put on a good show! For once! In The Company Of Legends pulled an 87, with Aaron Knight defeating Ricky DeColt in an 85 main event. No, I do not understand why the CWA World Championship wasn't defended, but at least the show was good.

In other news, Vic Walker has knocked up Joy! Pretty inconvenient from our booking perspecitve but oh well. It's more than she'd make in two years with us but money is so trivial in this game that I'm gonna gave her a 1k bonus. She's leaving on maternity leave in three months.

Our altruism will also extend to a lad by the name of Govan Monty, a rather impressive young worker who fell victim to yet another scumbag move from Mark Carnie - he hasn't been paid, he's quit SNP, we've all heard this song and dance. I'm becoming VERY tempted to declare war on those bastards up north tbh. Andriy Boronin meanwhile has been in the news about how desperate he is to wrestle after months of unemployment, I've talked him into working in the UK and signed him to a deal. I figure since we cover travel and since he's so desperate it makes sense that he'd be willing to head to the UK.

And finally, Barry Griffin has announced that he's going to be retiring in three months. Barry for those unaware is an English worker who was a star for the old Men of Steel Combat promotion, then stuck two fingers up at Nova and headed to Japan for the rest of his career. He's back home now, and I think it's only fitting that we give him a small farewell tour before he rides off into the sunset.

And then the final topic for today's update is the Of The Year So Far Awards! Who's doing the best so far? Let's find out!

Wrestler of the Year So Far is El Leon, he is the current Campeonato del Mundo EILL, has an average match rating of 90!
Company of the Year So Far is EILL.
Tag Team of the Year So Far is EILL’s El Leon and Rock God Alvarez. They are not a tag team.
Match of the Year So Far is Tommy Cornell & Wade Orson defeating Adam Matravers & Luke Cool from an episode of Best of British Wrestling. 99 rated.
Show of the Year So Far belongs to TCW, with Total Mayhem 24 being a 93 rated event.
Young Wrestler of the Year So Far is Robby Griffin, the 23 year old Canadian who works for CWA and is one half of the Tag Team Champions. His average match rating is 76.
Veteran Wrestler of the Year So Far is Kevin Jones, the 44 year old has an average match rating of 84 for 21CW.
Brooke Tyler is Female Wrestler of the Year, performing exceptionally for the CWA with an 83 average rating for her matches.
Independent Wrestler of the Year is BISON Yano, who has a 68 average rating whilst wrestling mostly for PGHW.

We didn't feature, unfortunately. :/

And that's everything for this update, next time we're heading into July and the SUMMER SIZZLER tour.

Waiting for news on the next cards! Interesting pick ups, looking forward for the Barry farewell tour

Still waiting bruh

AceCodey · June 10, 2020

Hello friends. Been a minute since I did some CWW, so let's goooo. I'm gonna start off today by supplying an updated predictions leaderboard, since I've neglected to include that recently. <div style="text-align:center;">Prediction Leaderboard</div> Vladjarca: 9 Herrbear: 7 LaEstrella: 5 Portlius: 4 CloudyDay: 4 Tiberious: 4 TheLloyd: 3 BornToFail: 3 Hitman74: 2 Once again a GARGANTUAN thank you to everyone who comments/predicts/etc, it means a great deal to me and I'm glad you're enjoying. Now then, let's talk about what happened in July. <div style="text-align:center;">July</div> USPW's Independene Day Slam pulled in an 86 rating, beating out the rather disappointing SWF Supreme Challenge 40 which only earned an 81 - Remo defeating Valiant, Brandon James and Scythe in a bizarre SWF Championship fatal fourway. TCW's Summer Showdown was somehow only 80 rated despite two there being two 89 matches on the card. Speaking of TCW, they've now jumped up in size again, meaning they are Large. They've signed up Ernest Youngman and Akima Brave to written contracts, and I'm expecting a few more names to follow as they expand their roster. Surprisingly, Joel Bryant is leaving them. Weird. Up north, CWA have returned to their bumbling selves: Ultimate Showdown slumped to a 72 rated event, marring Sean McFly's first (and probably only) CWA World Championship win in a 75 match. In some HUGE news, Tommy Cornell has abandoned his home once more to sign a contract with USPW! This is pretty wonderful news for us because it's always nice to see 21CW suffer. There was also the hilarious incident of Tommy cracking his tailbone the show after his move was announced, as he put over National School of Wrestling graduate Kevin Marquardt. Besides Tommy leaving, it's been another good month for 21CW, as London Calling pulled an 88 thanks to Jonathan Faust's title retention against Edward Cornell. The last bit of business to go through is the fact that we've made some more signings. None of them are particularly important/exciting, but we're heading into the SUMMER SIZZLER tour, and I want the tour to be something of a showcase for a large variety of talent. Those signings are The Northern Lights (Riddick Jordan & Alton Vicious), Thomas Morgan, Walter Morgan, Christopher Lister, Gulliver and Toxic. Some are ready now, some are beginning to wind down their careers, some are only getting started. With all the news taken care of, let's go through the first TWO cards for the SUMMER SIZZLER tour! <div style="text-align:center;">Summer Sizzler Tour - Day One</div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="49149" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> The Pride Say Hello: Donny Henderson and Merle O'Curle are far too important for this show, so The Pride are represented tonight by Martin Heath, Jon Michael Sharp and Warren Newton. Of course the last time we saw these three men they were attacking referees and aiding in some very unspotsmanlike conduct, so I figure the crowd wouldn't be too happy to see them. They basically spend a few minutes insulting the crowd for booing, accusing those watching live of not knowing what good wrestling is, etc. 42 The Pride (Heath, Sharp & Newton) vs. Lynton Minehead, Jermaine Granger & Myles Cross: Poor, unfortunate souls. This is a pretty straight-forward match for The Pride, who as well as being more individually talented are far more in-sync when working together than their opponents. Sharp pins Minehead with a Flying Crossbody, because that's an appropriate finisher. 31 Welsh Dragon vs. Bryn Archer: Welsh Dragon makes an impressive debut against Bryn Archer. Though Dragon is only 22 years of age, he is no Young Lion and shows a level of experience and composure that Bryn simply doesn't have. The Welsh hero picks up a pinfall victory with the Dragon Kick, which sounds like a neat move, wish I knew what it is. 26 Jonni Leyland, Nigel Svensson, Grant Taypen and Leighton Buzzard vs. Andriy Boronin, Govan Monty, Pinfall Peters and Gordon Leve: Another tag match thrown together to get a few guys a win and give the crowd the satisfaction of seeing some of our bigger names, Leyland and company dominate most of the match and Svensson earns the victory by forcing Gordon Leve to tap out with the Hyper Extension Arm Lock. 38 Barry Griffin vs. Vernon George: Barry's here! Yay! This was a quick match and nothing special at all, just a bout to show off Barry as he prepares for his last run as a professional wrestler. The Powerbomb Deathlock (the coolest move ever) is enough to put poor Vernon away. 19. MAIN EVENT - Curtis Jenkins vs. Gavin Owen: I haven't given CJ a great deal of love in this save so far, so here's just a reminder that he is indeed one of our major stars. Gavin Owen is a solid talent and the two have a pretty back-and-forth match, but Jenkins eventually nails the Fisherman Suplex to pick up the victory and send the crowd home happy. 42. OVERALL RATING: 39 </div></blockquote> <div style="text-align:center;">Summer Sizzler Tour - Day Two</div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="49149" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> Glen Ward vs. Govan Monty: I imagine this being a pretty nice clash of styles, with Glen an excellent technician and Monty an all-or-nothing brawler. Ward of course beats the Young Lion with his Judo Choke Sleeper. 28. The Pride (Don Henderson, Martin Heath, Jon Michael Sharp & Warren Newton) vs. Vernon George, Pascual Taylor, Pinfall Peters & Gordon Leve: Don Henderson has deigned to join us with his presence, he and his Pride stable-mates toying with their opposition before he forces Taylor to submit to the Scottish Deathlock. 34 JK Lee & Padraig O'Hearne vs. Jermaine Granger & Myles Cross: Some back-and-forth tag team action, Lee and O'Hearne are still very much one of the top teams in the company, striding to victory as Lee taps Granger out to the Crossface. 35 Barry Griffin vs. Jonni Leyland: A much bigger test for the aging Griffin, as you'd expect Leyland pushes him far further than Vernone George was able to on Day One of the tour. These are two veterans in the ring and they display it with superb counter-wrestling, before Griffin finally catches Leyland out with his Powerbomb Deathlock to get the win. 32. MAIN EVENT - Walter Mogan vs. Christopher Lister: Two of our new debuts, and two guys who are instantly good enough to headline a show. Like I said earlier, I want this tour to be all about showcasing talent! Lister and Morgan are two technical specialists, and for 20 minutes they captivated the CWW fans with slick counters and grapples. Finally, the Northern Crossface is locked in and the man born and raised in Wigan, Walter Morgan, picks up a win in his first ever CWW match. 40. OVERALL RATING: 40 </div></blockquote> Next time we'll be... continuing with the SUMMER SIZZLER tour!
