I agree that Rob Nolan's flash was an absolute home run. That isn't to say I didn't like a lot of other guys' work, but yeah... very, very strong promo.

Seconded.

Although nicknames are no longer his bag, I sense 'The Real' Rob Nolan is on the horizon. I agree with the lot on this being a terrific promo... although I was the most entertained by Wilkes. He's moving on to teens! That spells progress! :D

Work happens. :)

First 3 matches are written, just got to do some editing... Part 1 will be out in the A.M.!

Part 2 is tentatively planned for Sunday!
Working on new characters you didn't see a decade ago. Honest.

Well, you could always do what Blue does on occasion for AWA and add your two cents as to why you Did What You Did afterwards. ;)

I second this, I LOVE when Blue does...especially after PPVs.

Since we're still waiting on Jerod...

* Keith Tyler

-->I know what Mike wants to do with Tyler, so it's tough to be objective. Hopefully once Insession #2 comes about, the picture will be clearer.


* “Rowdy” Jon Rawlins

-->A bit vanilla, but there's nothing wrong with such a flavor if everyone else is going for hardcore or veteran. That being said, maybe a feud or a partnership between him & Keith could help both rookies out.


* Ian Finnegan

===> Of the three (between him, Andrus & Wilkes), this one I "got behind" more. Be curious to see if Ian can pull through.


* “Angry” Angus Andrus

===> I see what Mike was saying about the similarities between him and Finnegan. All I know is supposedly this guy is obsessed with Joe Petrow, but I need to know more.


* “Prom King” Frank Wilkes

===> Glad the RSO is getting dumped as a gimmick. Really kind of creepy to read that, even with the over-the-top humor. Keep the bear, leave the gimp!


* Bang Bang Mangum

===> Probably my 2nd favorite flash next to Nolan's. Might be an interesting twist if somehow the tryout matches for the 1st card are actually Mangum vs. Rawlins and an angles spins off from that way.


* “So Cool” Shiloh

===> Ehhh...didn't really do much for me. This guy needs a challenge to overcome in order for me to get behind him if he wants to be a face. Actually, Mangum might be a good choice here too.


* Rob Nolan


-->Now I had to go back and re-read Nolan's RP for the CL Cup and Dro was right about them being pretty much the same. Still doesn't take away from the fact it's a good piece. Hopefully Nolan will finally get his chance. And I could see him work as a face or embittered heel either way.

As for "Cool" Keith himself...

-->I liked the snark in between segments. Will be interesting to see how he differentiates himself from someone like a Fred Hoyle or Sam Steely.

I know we still are waiting for the first card to come out. My biases are hoping for a few less hardcore types to show up for card #2 though. ;)
And here's where I pretend to be a writer...

Shiloh vs Mangum would be cool, didnt even think of that. Personally, I'm hoping someone talks Jim into bringing TJ White to feud with Nolan like they were supposed to in BSCW before life got in the way.

Speaking of.... Where's Angelo Vesper? We had a sweet little feud stewing with him and Robinson.

You got that from this flash? Hmmm. Interesting I suppose.

And I agree on the plethora of hardcore guys. Was surprised to see so many for an old school fed. Although I contribute to that long list.

I tend to avoid vastly overbooking long-term angles by habit... I always have ideas, but (with rare exceptions :ninja: ) I tend not to try to force things unless they make serious sense. And true to that, the individual feuds for the "hardcore" guys are all largely independent and still in planning.

That said... one of the long-term OSW angles I have pretty much set in stone in my mind is how I'm handling the "hardcore influx" long-term, as I want to handle it in a "realistic" but still entertaining way. Which was one reason I've gone ahead and promoted them as such, and am subconsciously "guiding" feuds in a direction that will lead to involvement in the end goal. I don't think most of the handlers have any idea yet of quite how interconnected they will eventually become. :)

:whip:

OK, OK, back to writing.

Will be responding to some of those "overdue" e-mails tonight, for those waiting on stuff that didn't directly relate to the card. :)

Or for a more accurate answer, if Jerod wanted him in here I could probably make it happen.

I just gotta ask, since it was brought up.....

Why _CANT_ Shiloh exist as a 'pretty boy hardcore wrestler'???

I know I perhaps havent quite found his 'voice' yet, but I think its a little twist on the classic 'bad ass face' archetype. I dunno. I think its a unique formula that helps him stand out from other faces.

But I love feedback, so Im all ears. Especialyl witha character so young and fresh, meaning easily molded and changed to suit my needs. :-D
