There's some good diaries around at the moment. There's so much to choose from for March, but I've decided on my February nominations:

 

Real World:  AWA: A New Generation by Bockwinkel. This one's been quiet of late, but I'm really hoping this dynasty is still active, as it's been a brilliant read so far and I really want to see what happens at the big event they've been building up to.

Can I nominate two Real World diaries? If so, let's also give some applause to this one...

Real World:  WCW 1995 by Henderson. This long-running diary has had lots of well-written shows and is proving to be a really good read, which I enjoy reading like a novel on my phone. 

CornellVerse:  FCW: It Matters by Christmas_Ape. I'm not normally a big lover of the CVerse, but this one's captured my imagination, and the use of PDFs to present events is something I've not seen before. I also like the renders being used, and find the storytelling is done very well. 

Graphics:  Can we also get some love for Pro Wrestling FREEDOMS: Go Beyond The Limit by CGN91. The use of black and white photos in particular makes the scars, the gore, the grotesque so very captivating. I like the way the shows and cards are posted as visually striking images, it gives the diary a certain personality.

C-Verse  CGC: From The Ground (2018 Alternate CornellVerse Mod)  AboardTheArk

February had Apocalypse in which was a great event, start of Whippy's chaos reign and a big win for Marc Dubios. As well as some big Title Bout Wrestling episodes. It might be slowing down at the moment but it was going strong in feb. If it ends up sadly over would be extra fitting for it to get a deserved DoTM

PSW: Welcome to my mid-life crisis jcarmijn

Whilst this started in January technically it really got going in february, with a strong amount of awesome shows.

Worldwide Wrestling League (CVerse '77) - The League That Came Before Willsky

Willsky has somewhat of an uphill battle in a way, a promotion that is skewed heavily (I assume) perf over pop where a lot of the story is inside the matches themselves should be really difficult to make interesting when you're also using characters that few people at all will be used to. So it's a testament to his format which he's really nailed down over past couple of years with PWL/WWL that you do actually find yourself getting drawn in and caring about the outcomes. 

Global Entertainment Wrestling [CV20]  by newbiezness

It's great to have a mixture of diary types on the boards, this is a fun one to follow as whilst it rarely goes in depth for particular shows this means it can get deep into the save quickly so your more following the promotion in general than any one storyline. Also as someone who's posting schedule can vary and get sporadic I'm always impressed at the sheer amount of shows. 

 

 

Sorry to not include links I'm struggling to get it all together on my phone.

Just realised this is here with too much good stuff not nominated, I know it's past deadline but I'll get mine in later tonight and hopefully that's in time! 

I didn't realize this. I don't know if this will count either but here's one more addition:

Real World: AEW - Beyond The Elite by Kimberly and Pipers Pit
