Okay just tossing some food for thought out here ... Right now we have the PVW World, PVW American, PVW TV, PVW Tag Titles.

With our growing roster do you guys feel this is the right amount of titles for the league. I like it where we are at as it makes winning a PVW title seem to be more special and all that.

I am thinking of adding a tournament / event or something that would give people something to fight for here and there through out the year.

Anyways I was discussing this today with a handler and I thought I would bring the topic to the board for discussion.

Do we have the right amount of titles for our big roster?

Are these the right titles?

What special events would you like to see in the PVW?

No additional titles. A 'reward' type event is nice, but don't we already have Blood Bowl?

If you like tournaments, you could just do one for a 'cash prize'; hold all of the matches on TV shows, maybe book the finals on a Tradition or something.

Maybe some kind of rookie/new talent Cup showcase?

So, have an event where the catering people never show, and then have an open invitational Delicious Bacon Ladder Match, where a container with delicious bacon is hung from the rafters and anyone who wants it can go at it MITB style.

I don't know why this mental image amuses me...

In all seriousness, Katie's comment is a good one; you could focus such an event on the new blood. Even throw Merc in there as he's out to kill them all.

I agree that the number of titles is just right as it is. The top title, the secondary title, the entry-level title and the tag titles. Though I admit my brain has been intrigued by whomever brought up the idea of a Trios Title recently... I think that would be fun, and would further encourage hybrid teams that intermix the singles and tag divisions (thinking along the lines of the Sinister/Berserkers team). I don't think it's needed at all... but it could be fun if it existed.

I also am a big fan of a King of the Ring style tournament. Make the prize a shot at the American Title (keep the Called Shot and Shattered Dreams megamatches for the World Title shots), or even just have it for a cash prize or a belt-less title (Detson immediately rose in importance once he had the "Called Shot", even though his title match wasn't imminent... call it a "Rising Phoenix" winner or something like that, let it be a year-long source of pride without attaching a title belt to it). It would be a good way for guys like Sin, Biz, Manson, etc (along with the new guys) to get hype even if they didn't end up winning the tournament, and the guy who wins gets a bragging rights claim even if they don't win the American Title itself or don't get an actual guaranteed title shot.

I also think, since titles are being discussed, that the TV Title is being used incorrectly. Everyone knows I love Uncle Frank, and you all now understand why I loved him way back when... but the TV Title shouldn't be held by a dominant character like this. I don't even really want to see it on Manson, cause he'll dominate it the same way Frank is. I want to see it used as a hype machine for the newer guys, I wanna see it defended every single week (alternate weeks between the shows, one week it's defended on Heatwave, one week on Shockwave), and I wanna see it change hands way more often than it is.

I don't think the problem is there not being enough titles... I just think the titles aren't traded enough. HvD and Gibson have had their titles forever, and deservingly so... the TV Title should be traded more often among the midcard, "testing" guys for potential runs at the bigger titles. If you're only going to have 1-2 title holders a year for the big belts (which I agree is how the top titles SHOULD be handled to maintain prestige), use the third belt as the carrot for the rest of the roster who aren't quite on that level yet. Frank showed he's uppercard... so have someone fluke the title off of him, see how they can run with it. You can always hotshot it back onto Frank or Weaver later, only to pass it off to someone else eventually for another stint. Short title runs worked to push Black and SCD up the card, and I get why the title's been on Frank for awhile since his win with the HOPE-dominating-titles angle and the Frank-belt-obsession angles... I just think trading the TV Title more solves any question that might be raised about there not being enough titles.

Working on new characters you didn't see a decade ago. Honest.

Some good discussion. PVW has used Blood Bowl twice so far. I've also considered quite a few other special events in the past. A KOTR type tourney is very possible in the future.

How about a one night six-man tag tournament like Chikara's King of Trios? This way, you could involve both single wrestlers and tag teams.

Might be tough to write, though.

If we go with trios then make it a shared title with ASLL. That would be something special.
And it was at this moment that the entire world realized, in unison, that tandem bicycles were AWESOME~!
