The order of elimination was up to the match writer. It had nothing to do with RP quality.

I have to get up in 25 minutes to go to work. I only got up two hours ago for a late night 3AM bowl of Corn Pops but saw the PPV was up while I ate the cereal. Thanks Apocalypse, thanks for keeping me awake all night.

Kind words, thank you
Here's a small preview of my review and my complaint about how your character was used.
Before the match Vee is mentioned 3 times. First time he's being beaten, second time he's tumbling around and the third time he's at best even with Kagura. Not once does Vee get the advantage.
During the match.
This section above all goes together and basically says you couldn't execute a basic move from your background. Abel laughed at Vee and then hit a move. You got nothing on Abel, he made you look like a geek. So far you look shit.
Abel is now gone so you finally get something going but it's a counter not even a real move.
The move you failed to do earlier is used against you now. You get punch in the throat and need the referee to give you a break. You still look shit.
Second move you've done all night and it's the first time you've had the advantage and actually looked like a threat. It's also done by surprise! You couldn't even get the advantage fairly, you had to do it by surprise. That's the only time you look good this entire match and it was by surprise. What a PPV experience.
And that's it for you. A stomp to the head by a guy who hasn't competed for ages eliminated one of the "best RPers of the round as they said on the podcast" and you looked like a total joke the entire time.

I guess it's fine Da Prophet (or idk how to call you) I've PMed the creatives and talked about it. I'm alright with it.
Edit: A special props for how the Mawashi Geri has been utilised so far in my matches! Thanks for that. I might can build a legacy with that kick!!

Here's what happened with the 8-man, directly from the match writer:
The heels had a stronger set of RPs than the faces. Abel has done consistently well enough, to look like a monster here. Also, the heels broke down their strategy for the match in their RPs. I used that within the match. The smaller wrestlers paired off, allowing the larger guys to pair off (M/Abel and Kagura/Vee). Vee, I felt, was the weakest, meaning he needed to go first, and that worked with Abel needing to be a monster. The surprise kick was a call back to Vee knocking out Cooper (as I'm sure you'll remember). Vee has been solid as of late, so instead of an outright pin and lose, I made it a surprise, so he can get back to where he was before this match. Blade, I thought was weaker than Kagura, but to waste the surprise return and have him be the first gone didn't seem right. So, Kagura had a chance to look strong, get eliminated, and then Blade shortly after.
That's how the elimination order came to be.
As for Tastic's appearance, it's on me. Jam told us he was leaving the day befre I started writing the match, so we had to write out Gino, and think of a fill-in on short notice. Mancini is a rookie heel, so no. There were other plans for Logan post-Apocalypse, before FWR left, so there was no time to change that. So it came to mind...who better to help Mikey in the final hour, than Matt Tastic? It also gave us a way to eliminate the monster that was Abel, before getting to the final showdown that everyone should have seen coming.
Also.......Why so much impatience on what happened? Maybe there's shit coming in the future, and you need to wait and see why some of these decisions were made, without me explaining things any further. Trust me...There's a lot of good things coming from this. Be patient.

Ah it's me who started these rants and I apologise for that. When I started reading the match I was really gutted to see I was eliminated first. But then I realised you blokes certainly will have some plans. I'm alright with the whole segment. The best possible thing I can do is build a story from this.
Thanks for breaking down the backstage works to our members. It was a Good show anyhow.

You had been really strong going into this show, but this RP was a step back. Not saying it was bad, but you were the best for 2 rounds in a row, and this was not. The psychology I went with, concerning Vee, was that he couldn't keep up with a monster like Abel, and Kagura only had the advantage because of the cheap shot. When all was working against him, he went with what worked, the kick that knocked out Cooper. It would have worked, had Blade not interfered.
While the build may have been weak, it makes that move something to be afraid of, and shows that Vee is never really out of a match.
My thoughts, anyway, but I just wrote the match, right?

And that's why he feels lost!

I'm really glad that you guys are emphasising more on that Mawashi Geri!!
I would be more glad if you bold that when I use it I really could build a legacy on that as its my plan :3Jam and I had it narrowed down to him or another guy when the teams got named but we got a PM a bit after basically 100% confirming it so we didn't want to spoil it
Jammy left a bit after Vee PM'd us his RP so that, on top of the crap I had to extend the deadline for, was why this round's episode of M was a bit halfhearted to put it lightly. I'll put in a bit of effort next round maybe.

It is a first for WZCW I believe. Ty can pull it off though.
Cooper & Keaton have their work cut out for those titles that's for sure.

Because you know, you and you are just renting those titles for now. Cooper and Keaton are flying towards you like a couple of armored robots with jet packs, equipped with laser guided arm missiles, elbow grenade launchers, acid piss and mind control.
I think you should turn on Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd and take a look back on your career.

Ssssh!
Don't rock the boat. We just have to wait it out until he's bored. We can't go making him mad.
