Ok, so after taking another look at this.... It does show a lot of potential. I much prefer reading something with made up fictional characters than "Random Poster #47 re-books Smackdown from Last October". With that being said though, the characters I enjoyed the most are the ones I am already familiar with such as Lexi from when she was in WZCW or Aquarius from one of our WZCW Phenoms Of Wrestling shows. What's so great about WZCW is how invested we are in our characters and in the show. It will come down to an answer to this question:
How far are you wanting to take this thing?
If the answer is a longer term writing project, then you need to make us care about each important character. Even though it took asking me to take a deeper look at it, your story has my attention now. I think a less serious alternative to WZCW could be a good route to take it. Not "WZCW All Stars" levels of silly, but keep making characters that stand out. I like your roster so far, so the more you get me to invest in your characters, the more I'll want to read about them. Do more promos. Whether it be in e-feds or real wrestling, I have always been a promo guy. I have to have a reason to like/dislike a wrestler or else you run the risk of me changing the channel (or clicking to the next thread here, but you get what I mean).... Seriously though, make every character bring something to the table that nobody else does. Take a look at my Merry Band Of Misfits as a smaller scale example. No role is repeated.
Theron
The fearless spiky haired leader with a big sword who holds the group together. Very laid back unless wrestling championships, religious artifacts, or video game bragging rights are on the line.
Kirilah
The attractive love-interest who is always pushing her religious views on everyone and starts nagging when important tasks are not getting done.
Sheshmish
A pirate who provides comedic relief when he's not drinking rum.
Kaleesta
A highly intelligent healer from another world who is less familiar with the setting, speaking with a Dr Who inspired style for that reason, and has a prayer chamber that is bigger on the inside.
Kayrentia
A druid who loves nature and animals, especially her nature's ally pets. Usually calm but she does suffer from "ooh shiny!" syndrome.
Keifasar
A necromancer who at times challenges Theron's personal views, also very arrogant, and has undead skeletal pets.
While you're familiar with my NPC's, I bring them up to illustrate that they all bring something to the table. Part of why I wrote Davivel out was that he didn't serve a purpose that the others weren't already doing better than him. So I brought in Kaleesta who offers everything Davivel did plus a few things of her own. (Davivel will, however, play a crucial role in the "Theron: Another Story" project. As it is Theron's story if he never became a wrestler).
So.... yeah. Keep it up, I'll be sure to read the next one. Just have an idea in mind of what you want to accomplish with this thing, and keep bringing us more characters that stand out from the average fictional fed so that readers will take interest in them. I want to see more of Lexi, Otaku, Mason, and Aquarius to name a few.
If you want to bring in Dr Anderson let me know and I could help on how to write promos of his. He needs more ART students to torture before the next All Stars event anyway.
Hope all this helps.
