I wish I had have opted for Jimbo the plane instead.

Mr. Morality has had quite the change over the year. Only time will tell what it is.

 

[Beastmode 24]

Well fuck. Derek Jacobs: Zombie Hunter is out of the question

 

[The Doctor]

I'm excited for some prospective signups to All Stars, and I think all of you should be too.

 

[TBK]

If we allow second characters, I'm tempted to sign up a character who's name is "LOL DIDN'T READ ". His rep will be Spongebob, his gimmick will be cocky heel, he comes out to Headstrong by Trapt, and his entire moveset is made out of banned moves.

I love this so much

New champ, and a new contender with some real swag finally, congrats to all though, Redemption was good and if I wasn't so damn sleepy I'd...

I also think it's pretty cool that Vega is the only person to have successfully defended his title at Redemption.

As far as All-Stars goes, might have to skip it, with a Sexton Tempest return being the second most likely option.

Love Coffee Mug.

I like DJ as much as the next guy (more apparently), but you still haven't picked Hogan as a rep, Meeks... Ke nako!

He got his arm crushed instead. Is that not enough for you, you sick bastard? You've been in the Mayhem division for too long.

The real reason is that the match had to have Hunter cost K.O. the match in a way that really got K.O. some heat, which was the arm crushing. If either Mikey or Howard had then proceeded to pin K.O, they wouldn't be very good faces, would they? They'd be dicks.

Except Stormrage isn't a face right now... he's a tweener. Or, as is listed on the WZCW roster page... he has an "Unknown Alignment."

But at the end of the day, what's worse; getting pinned for the title, or getting punted in the head like CM Punk and never actually getting to defend your title properly in the match that you lose it in?

I just figured worst RP gets pinned, or eliminated first in a battle royal or something. I just know that if I were in that match and got pinned after Kermit deliberately put up a stinker of an RP to lose... I wouldn't be a very happy camper. And CM Punk never made it to his match... Chris K.O. was very much in the match. Actually, if Hunter would have pulled some Orton shit and taken Chris K.O. out before the match, I think that actually would have been more fitting of the RP.

I would also say that keeping KO out of the final decision can help build a Howard/Stormrage feud.

How so? I hope this leads to Howard & Stormrage continuing on their own... but IMO it would have served their feud better had neither one of them had a pinfall over the other heading into their next match... assuming that is what's happening. It's the classic Triple Thread scenario where whoever got pinned or submitted is out of the picture, and the one who wasn't involved in the finish could continue a program with the winner. Kermit's a hell of an RPer, and getting pinned wouldn't have hurt his character or himself anymore than it already was by being taken out by Dustin Hunter.

The whole notion that this helps Chris KO's character for his return being able to say "I never lost my title" makes no sense to me. Why help build a character's return months from now, when you have two characters in desperate need of being built up right now? I mean, let's not forget that, as much as I like Shotaro as a person AND as an RPer... he hadn't won since before KCV, and Stormrage's whole schtick as of late has revolved around his loss at KCV as well... meanwhile there isn't a single person here (save maybe Prophet) who thinks Kermit needs any sort of help getting his character over. A pin over Chris KO could have helped Justin Howard immensely, more so than a pin over a man he's about to continue feuding with.

I feel weird making a gripe over a match I had absolutely nothing to do with... I just felt it was weird, and perhaps a lost opportunity to help Shotaro & Yaz build their feud at the expense of Chris KO's eventual return. Then again, I have nothing to do with this feud whatsoever... so it's no skin off my back.

& dammit, I completely forgot about SHIT retaining over Tastic. Oops, sorry Miko! & sorry KJ, too... didn't mean to gloss over your match.

Howard pinning Stormrage works perfectly for any potential feud between them, particularly with it being somewhat out of the blue in the match and Mikey's tweener/heel leanings.

Think of it as something like the Beer Money break up. Now, all Mikey has to do to complete his turn and fire up the feud is to attack Howard during his first address as champion.

2-3 cycle feud right there.

Dammit Barbs, can't you...

just...

ugh!

Shut up and help me shit on Blade!

 

[Kermit]

If it makes you feel any better Vega, the only thing I requested for the match was that Hunter cost Chris the match. I actually envisioned myself taking the fall as a result, but Barbosa brings up an excellent point, and I still think Blade wrote a fine match. Seeing as Yaz and Shotaro both knew about me dropping the title a round a round in advance, and neither seeming to be upset with the ending; I don't think it's worth causing any fuss over.

Edit* Also, I honestly wouldn't have minded jobbing out, and I expected it for the RP I put in, but Blade wrote what he wanted and the end result is all the same. If anything, it's mine or Yaz's fault for not giving him clearer direction on how it should end.

 

[Dirk]

Nobody's shitting on Blade...

Or else...

They'll have somebody who's a continent away making idle threats...

Hey, I can actually listen to a podcast this week!

Btw, who won the battle royal match? I pieced thru Redemption a few times, but I couldn't get a clear answer.

Not until the end of the month. We are taking a break from our regular programming to put out our annual non-canon All Stars show. For a clearer projected time-table, here is the live event schedule located in the WZCW.com area.

*Note: We are doing applications this week during Creative's normal week-off after each PPV. After this week, we will draw up the cards and set up the deadlines. After the deadlines we will put out the show on the projected date below.

Hmm, Steven Homie and Cosmo A are begging to face each other, but I still like my serious heel idea since I wouldn't mind bringing him into a fed properly at some point. I also have tons of other characters. This is difficult. Very difficult.

We have a pretty decent turn out so far. Knowing what you are capable of coming up with I have no issue giving people a second character. I'll make a note in the super secret back room.

Unless your too busy crying over the Pirates getting eliminated tonight right?

 

[Theo Mays]

Shame I'm set of my super Bostonian guy for All Stars. Came up with a Justin Labar gimmick character that thinks he is super over, but is actually super hated. Could've wrote the whole RP like an episode of Chair Shot Reality. Damn.

 

[Con T.]

Boy, I'm so glad I get to try something new for All Stars!

Well, let's see... I'm doing a musical... Suppose that involves a lot of rhyming.
