Most likely. I mean, you used Teeth as your entrance music. That's just a recipe for victory there.

Miko has the Elite X bro. Also, I think you have tiers of the titles mixed-up. In terms of singles it usually goes World, EuAsian, Elite X, and then Mayhem. However, there have been a few holders that have temporarily shifted the balance or evened it out (S.H.I.T. is a good example). But in terms of consistency the EA is usually contested by "higher" talent.

Don't know why I got Miko & KO's titles twisted up... honest mistake.
As for the tiers/reputation of the titles, that's funny... because I totally view the Elite X title as more prestigious than the EurAsian... but maybe that's because I hold Sam Smith with such high regard and he was the main man holding that strap since I've been around. Rush' unfortunate fade into obscurity has made me view the Elite X as more valuable to me than the EurAsian. I'm genuinely amused at being blatantly wrong about the title's rankings, though.
So it's, World... Mayhem... EurAsian... Elite X?
I kid, I kid...I know my place.

It's not always so finite, but consistency yes. I always look back to KC last year as a prime example. The EA title was in a match involving Showtime, Barbosa, and Black Dragon. The Elite X was contested between the up-and-comer Triple X and Johnny Scumm.
Rush did kind of fade, but I think most would agree that he had the packaging and skills for the main-event far before Smith ever did. That is not a knock at Crock at all because I think we could all buy into him getting a WHC title shot now, but Rush was basically ready even before he had the EA title.
Edit* Also, I think you have a lot of ground to stand on when you talk about raising the prestige of the Mayhem Title. You've definitely brought it up a few pegs, just as Bowen did with his reign.
One of my All-Stars characters is a WZCW parody too. I hope it's not the same guy.
I'm not so sure you'll get a title shot right away, or if that's even the best option for Vega. You've done the title thing for a while, it might be time for Vega to have a good old fashioned feud where nothing but pride is on the line.

Slightly late, but I disagree with this sentiment almost entirely.
In a way I used to share your emotion, except my distaste always got turned towards the people running the more ridiculous characters - though for almost exactly the same reason.
Someone trying to tell a believable story grounded in reality has what they are trying to do undermined just as much (actually considerably more - but whatever) by having to incorporate someone like S.H.I.T as S.H.I.T might by having to compete against somebody operating exclusively in the real world.
It's the same when I had to write roleplays against Celeste Crimson - I was trying to write a believable real world character, and in the real world decent grown men do not kick the ever loving shit out of women - so every match any of my characters ever completes in against her instantly becomes all about explaining away that discrepancy with reality. (my general recourse when I didn't want to do this was to just ignore me opponent all together, but for some reason you tend to get punished for doing that).
Of course the solution to this is to either ban all the women, robots, aliens and whatever the fuck else is competing these days - or to force everyone to operate in some inconsistent parallel dimension where realistic drama is impossible. Either way I think the fed ends up poorer for it.
Some opponents and some writing styles are going to clash with your character, I think that's just something everyone has to live with. Drama is good, but you're going to have to devote time to explaining away the idiosyncrasies of the wrestling business - it's not everyone else's responsibility to line up with your story. Similarly if you want to take a ridiculous concept and play it straight then more power to you, but it's not at all fair to expect everyone else to play it straight as well.

I've done nothing for that title now, when you beat me. I will be a footnote. You've got all the tallent in the fed. Lmao I couldn't even go up a division and get a win. Ever wonder why the only title I've ever won was the mayhem title? Its because I'm honestly a shit roleplayer. I like to cut promos, not tell storys. I'm no good at telling stories.
When you beat me, ill be a footnote in the division I tried to elevate. I'm done talking about it. I don't really care anymore.

Probably because you ditched our team.
If you had only come back to the forums like a week ago you would have seen I was still repping that badass sig for the C.o.C cause I was living in the past when I think I was about to hit my stride RP wise.
