As I continue to work on the show... (252k and counting), I'm doing some SuperClash pondering and one thing that came to mind is Steal The Spotlight. No, I'm not going to propose the tag STS (although we could totally do it this year!) but I had a couple of other ideas. In one of the other forums, there's a discussion about trying to expand the handler base (and character base as well) in our circle of feds. And I thought there's a slight chance I could help with that with STS. So, here's a couple of ideas... OPTION A --- Team #1 is made of current AWA competitors, all fighting for the usual guaranteed match of their choice. Team #2 is fighting for that match... as well as for an AWA contract because they're all competitors who are brand new to the AWA. Now, these can be new characters (which means existing AWA handlers could create them) or they could be new handlers altogether (probably a little harder to put together.) OPTION B --- Team #1 is made of Combat Corner graduates who haven't made the main roster yet - handled by current or new handlers. Team #2 is made of new characters who didn't come through the Corner - also handled by current or new handlers. That means that this match will have largely all new characters who none of us have ever seen before in the AWA... which is kind of cool but has the potential to suck if no one wants to read 50k of new characters in action. I suppose there may be other options combining these that I haven't pondered yet. Thoughts? |

I do like the option that one team, the new guys, is all NEW HANDLERS. People not currently in the AWA. Even if it's one match, it gives them a showcase to show off how they rp and interact. Who knows who we might find from other circles or within JTF that are fedless at the moment. |

I think this is a great idea...new blood (character and handler) is always a good thing in my opinion. |

I like the idea of a Combat Corner team of new characters and/or handlers. |

Especially since we have some time to "recruit", as it were. |

Maybe the second team should be "the comebacks." All older characters who haven't seen the light of day in ages. |

Like the Ultimate fighter season when they brought back all the old UFC fighters and Matt Serra knocked out GSP after winning the show. You'd have to be able to yank a handful of guys out of retirement for it to really work or just get handlers to take on some of the You Take Ems that you put back in the pile (Rex Summers, Ricky Royal, guys like that). Problem is how else are you going to incorporate all the OTHER active guys on the roster. This usually helps 8-10 current wrestlers have a match on the biggest show of the year. Now all these spots are given too non roster guys. |

Now.... What would be AWESOME is you have team AWA vs team New Combat Corner Grads/new Guys for the singles STS. Then... Super Tag Team Comebacks vs, Regular Tags STS. I don't know how it would work but to have like: Violence Unlimited, Kentucky Pride, Rough N Ready (just for ex.), etc Vs. Air Strike, Young Bloods, The Rave, Ring Workers, Longhorn Riders -- young teams or teams that haven't had their break yet. |
