Season 5 Homepage 1

I havent given feedback yet, I just handed in my votes at the ballot. I'll give feedback either in a thread or when they are published

Generally it's done anonymously to stop arguing as some people don't like the feedback they get

I best write some feedback for you to post for me then Nando!

I don't mind getting bad feedback, I'd just like it to be constructive and not just "it's not very good"!

If anyone hates long shows then I'm sorry about what I'm going to post later...4000+ words at last count.

im still part of this, just had a very busy week and forgot to submit my show.

Should post it anyway, even if it's not finished so that you get the chance to start your fed out and you can show us all what you're trying to achieve with this season.

When are votes due?

Tomorrow night by Midnight I believe.

Will do them tomorrow then

I was looking through the shows this week and i was impressed with them all, well done lads. Big shout out to nando, i thought his show was superb. Tooze matches were also layed out well. Greggers will his shows ever not be class? 

But despite all the positives there was one show i was far from impressed with and its the same person who didn't take on feedback in season 4 and ended bottom i believe. 

Well done lads 

so why didn't you sign up for this season Nick 

I might redo my feedback/votes tonight...knowing it's anonymous I feel like I can give proper feedback (obviously constructive) without worrying it may be will cost me in future rounds if someone takes it personally.

That's why we tend to do it behind closed doors

I've tried to make mine constructive with both positives and this Id look to improve upon, I hope in no way they come across as putting down the person and Im happy to expand upon my reasoning if anyone raises issue with a comment Ive made to hopefully show I mean it in a constructive way.

I generally gave a quick reason as to why I picked who I did, which I would happily expand on if anyone felt it was necessary. Dont really think I can give too much else cos its still too new to me, once I've had a few weeks of shows it will be clearer.

I want feedback now haha! If anyone wants to PM me what they thought or give me tips I'd really appreciate it

Where was Blade and CF's shows this week??

BELIEVE IN THE SHIELD 

Blade dropped out so Ishida took over as House Of Ishida and CF forgot to post his so will start properly next week...as an outsider at the moment Nick are you going to be giving any in-depth feedback for people's shows...I know I'd appreciate it

You read that and only brought up his quoting? The actual sentence makes no sense.

Results & Feedback From Week 1 Will Be Posted Around Late Morning/Early Lunch Time.

EDIT * Don't forget to post your questions to Chris on this week's spotlight podcast.

Feedback will be posted one at a time

NGPW 


While the matches flowed really well and a story was starting to develop that kept me entertained I would have liked a a bit more content in between matches to give the wrestlers a personality that you could get behind. Overall though a thoroughly enjoyable show that makes me want to see what's next.


NGPW: It seemed an odd kind of show reading through you start looking at the matches and think 1-2-3- will win and they haven't, All is superbly writing as using and Hero as world champion should be excellent 

enigma seems to be continuing the momentum that he buillt up last season, his ideas are excellent and continue to build

but the NGPW style this weel hurt it, showcasing limited guys

NGPW Pos - it's enigma doing what he does best, taking a match type that has been regularly abused in real life and basing an entire show around it Neg - no focus on any of the other divisions however still comfortably show of the week

Liked the pay off in NGPW though and it was the name I would have booked to win it.

What I liked?
Well written, Enigma clearly knows the flow of a match well and story tells that section well. It’s a nice looking roster as well, certainly some matches I’d like to see in RL going on.

What I didn’t like?
I’d like to see more character in between the matches, tell me a bit more about these guys, all well written but it seemed to missing that spark of excitement at times that draws you in. I’d also perhaps have saved the title match until the following week rather than double up in the first week.

MWF

A show with well written matches that really caught your attention but sadly not enough going on in between to really get me hooked and excited for the next edition. The show seemed to start strong though and it will be interesting to see where it goes but like I said, I'd like to see a bit more action between the matches to really cement why we should behind certain people and against overs.

Enjoyed the show a lot think week 2 will be superb and always enjoy a very good hardcore match

MWF Pos - the two tournament idea is unique and takes guts to book so far in advance Neg - I feel the roster could do with another big name

XPW

In all honesty XPW is unlucky to be going up against my favourite show of the week, some really strong matches and seems to have some long term plans involved, I would have liked slightly more content but it did well with the ammount it put in to get me interested in the next show, will be interesting to see where it goes.

XPW again has a very good roster and is full of very good wrestlers, im looking forward to seeing how nando continues to build

XPW Pos - really enjoyed the main event as it was drastically different to everyone else's main event Neg - with such a focus on the world title I felt the roster struggled to get settled as a lot of mid card guys got lost in the shuffle

I also hate Abyss and it annoyed me that he won.

Well written show that flowed excellent. Card was stacked with talent and matches throughout making it very enjoyable although brief. I get the feeling that this acted as the prelude to a massive show next week where there will be more storyline driven context.

Hero

My favourite show of the week, a really strong start with a great way of getting across the idea for the next season, Hero said himself that people wouldn't know everyone on his roster so the team aspect really helps with this problem and even if you don't know an individual you can still get behind his team, I'd point out flaws but there weren't really any...will be interesting to see if he can keep up the high standard of the shows over the next two months, if he can I'm putting him as favourite to take the crown.

I very much enjoyed both shows and it was hard to seperate the two, the dragongate style teams in Heros shows will work well with the roster he has created thus far. However I feel that it needs another couple of weeks before I can fully get into it

Hero win but..is Heyman calling out Brock Lesnar the victor every time?

Hero Pos - the concept is very strong and keeping eight teams relevant will either make or break the show Neg - I felt the show was a tad long also can you only do churches of h's? Coming next church of hennig?

Team Hero Feedback - I love the concept of teams/stables this season with the opening segment a perfect introduction to highlight the teams. Overall the card was very enjoyable to read, although a segment or two went on a little to long, but the tension of Kingston/Steen was superbly written. Overall, I'm really looking forward to seeing how this unfolds over the season!

I voted for Hero cos his idea is very good for a first week kind of introduction, he would have got my vote over anyones show. He has big names mixed with those indy darlings and he got them all over quite quickly

HOI

A good start with a difficult situation, I'm impressed that the show was ready considering it being taken over at such a late notice. The feuds seem to be set out really well and storylines seem to be thought out but I felt that the show lacked originality at points but I look forward to seeing the future.

A very good start off show from uryu, not sure about Chavo being succesful it just don't seem right , Be nice to see Alex riley used properly and very much enjoyed the main event Undertaker vs New Jack would be really quite odd also on a side note If New jack hits Taker then Taker would win by DQ

Uryu seems to have taken on board a little from the feedback he recieved last season and improved how his shows are written 10 fold, has a far better flow to shows also this season.

HIS may be a little bit disadvantaged with a roster that he probably would have constructed differently but I would have done some of the booking differently.t makes the introduction to a new fed easier. It also made me sad to see Alex Riley and Chavo Guerrero win matches.

IS Feedback: Urya has come back with a much improved show, the writing style was more detailed and the segments were great to read. I'm also really enjoying the luca/Mexcian style themed wrestling with showcased some great matches with the main event topping things off. I'm looking forward to seeing where this can go.

What I liked?
I liked the angle at the end, nice twist and look forward to seeing where it goes from there. Uryu’s done well with the ingredients he was left with.

What I didn’t like?
Apart from the twist ending it felt a little painting with numbers style, sort of going through the motions, I’d like to see Uryu let loose a bit more and think a bit more outside the box in the future weeks.

nXtreme

nXtreme: A really strong start with a great concept for the upcoming season, it will be interesting to see if the high standard can be kept and I really look forward to seeing the dynamics between the teams and the rivalries that it creates, was great to see the history of the past seasons added in and had some great matches to kick off the current season.

nXtreme: It's superbly written as usual and with some very entertaining matches, the fear for me is that after the 1st PPV it's going to become stale as at some point your going to be re hashing matches and that's not a good thing despite the quality wrestlers the ending was quality though
Gregers has once again got me intrigued by his idea this season, looking forward to see how things progress.
nXtreme Feedback: Return to form in an excellent show. The Pentadoyen Cup makes a great theme for the season with countries
going against each other providing to be a hit. There's not really much more I can say about the show.
I also really like the way Nxtreme is constructed show wise, theres a great way of bringing you into a longer story that has been built
What I liked?
It s a good idea to run with the cup idea, it gives everyone an immediate angle to work with and reasoning behind feuds, makes it easier for sorting bookings each week.

What I didn’t like?
My one main issue with the cup is the nationality angle and that it’s based in the UK and the British team are the main heels. I just cannot see the fans booing their homegrown guys. Heel v heel matches will also prove problematic. The ending of the main event as well was telegraphed a mile off, 5 teams with only 4 taking part, wonder where this is leading...?

TWA

A really strong show and a lot of content that was used well to set up how it was going to go forward. The matches worked well and helped tell the story by helping build up feuds for the future. The only suggestion I'd have is that maybe Thunder could have spread the bigger matches over the course of a few of the shows and utilised his midcard a bit more.

it's different having a 5 count and the 1st match is very good but seems a waste of Kane/Sting, Enjoying the bad ass Cena and a fued with Barrett over the title would be good, Solid womens match, seems odd to end a match with a handshake and the Chyna interview was hilarious, Big fan of super dragon despite him being a douche in RL

2 very good shows that are hard to seperate if I could I would have given this one a draw result but I cant therefore I had to pick one and that is TWA who just edged it for me

TWA win but both are VERY good and it was hard to pick the winner....

Titan Pos - a great use of the full roster with the mid card being used effectively throughout Neg - I don't like all of the belts being won on the first show as it could devalue the PPV down the line, it also dragged a bit with a lot of talking

TWA Feedback: Welcome to WWA Thunder! Very enjoyable first show with plenty of individual and unqiue ideas to set you apart from everybody else. The show gelled well together with some good story telling within the matches with a card stacked through out with some suprizing winners including the push of Wade Barret. Not really a fan of the 6cw style promo points but apart from that I enjoyed the segments. I also found the women's match slightly confusing with 2 championships on the line.

T.W.A.

What I liked?
Clearly a lot of planning has gone into the fed and it has quite a number of original ideas and names.

What I didn’t like?
Some of the match ups and winners, whilst I appreciate the writing there’s just not a match on the card I’d actually want to watch so it makes it hard for me to invest.

Mrs Whiskerson's Hairy T/W/A/T

A hilarious show that had me cracking up for most of the time I spent reading it, Chris set his goal out straight away and even though he isn't taking the name's serious he seems to have a plan going forward. The only problem I had was that after a while the screwy endings got boring to see and I know that this was an inside joke but he could have used the backstage segments to set up feuds...it was also an inside joke that I wasn't part of so it kind of went over my head.

Was one of the most funniest things ive read in a long time in WWA, Shane o Mac and Big E langston is an interesting combo, Surprised to see you pushing Ry-Berg, The tag matches were superb and as was Roode vs Hardy, Happy to see the accension in use aswell should be good that

2 very good shows that are hard to seperate if I could I would have given this one a draw result but I cant therefore I had to pick one and that is TWA who just edged it for me. two very good shows though and am looking forward to seeing how things progress for the two

both are VERY good and it was hard to pick the winner....

Muppet Pos - I enjoyed there being no titles on the line for the first show and the use of the roster was cleverly done Neg - I'm not sure how long the self deprecating humour will be funny for however it somehow worked today

Muppet Feedback: One of the best shows I've ever read for different reasons. The segments were very cleaver and funny with the comedy being worked into the matches made me really laugh. On to the wrestling side of things, while the writing was very good, there were too many interferences and not enough variety for my liking. Hope to see more of the comedy routine.

T.W.A.T.

What I liked?
The humour, clearly Chris has gone for the funny route with Steph and it pays off, very tongue in cheek.
The matches too, all seemed like feuds that would work and some that I’d want to watch.

What I didn’t like?
All just one on one singles matches with only half the roster, mix it up a bit next time.

EGW

EGW: I think you need to spread it out a big it seems like you tried to force everything into the opening show which made it feel really quite long to read and that's never good it means people can lose attention. Like Jacobs/Ambrose in a group id maybe drop the TV title

the one thing I feel let down EGW a bit was the length of the show it seemed to drag a little in places otherwise it was very very good

EGW Pos - I really like the Russian roulette match idea and the fact that the qualifiers weren't all over in the first week Neg - I must admit I wasn't a fan of the back stage fallout as I felt it took away from lethal's moment

EGW

What I liked?
Immediately it sets its stall out with its intentions for the PPV, good to see long term planning already underway there and the result pretty much sows the seeds of the rivalry for the following PPV too. The faction of Ambrose, Younger and Jacobs looks a great unit and can immediately see the chemistry there.
The fallout looks a good idea, bit like a ‘next time’ on EGW...

What I didn’t like?
I think there’s possibly too many belts on offer for the size of the fed, appreciate it gives the lower carders like Ryder, Shark Boy etc something to fight over but it perhaps is an easy cop out on what to do with those guys each week

Viper got me with his booking and his general enthusiasm too. Definitely one of the harder decisions but I think maybe EGW's roster excited me a little more so it pulls that way on a tight decision

CF

As CF hasn't posted a show I can't rate it but a no show on the first week isn't a good sign, it doesn't surprise me though as CF has been pretty absent during the season so far and sometimes doesn't seem to grasp the basic idea behind it, I will hold out judgement for his show for when it gets posted but right now I can't see a full season being posted by him.

Feedback for EGW was as I expected...the length of the show haha...I've already posted the next show and it's even longer...ooops.

The length is something that I won't be able to change but glad people liked the show overall...when will we get the results?

Will more likely to be this afternoon due to lack of 1 persons vote atm as it can influence 2 results

As in waiting for one persons to vote? I thought people were docked points if they didn't vote in time?

You lose 2 pts off you score in voting

He's already 8-0 down so it's not going to make a difference and if he votes it will make a difference

Shall we play the game of guessing who it is who hasn't voted?

I vote get rid of him from the league if its who I think it is

It doesn't take Sherlock to realise who hasn't voted...shocked? No.

Gregers wrote:I vote get rid of him from the league if its who I think it is

I vote we keep him in...it may be my only chance of getting points! haha

I cannot say anything as of yet as Tooze may yet have his votes.

So without giving anything away. How many rounds could change with his votes being added too them and how many are official?

4 of the 5 won't change just the other result may do which means we have to wait as otherwise it's unfair on them people as could cost them a win/draw etc

in regards to my finish...yes its a simple error n i corrected it last night.

As for me being behind and 'painting by numbers' well hopefully once I get fully back into my stride you will like the feuds I come up with and after 2 seasons of crazy risks ( zombie hulk hogan and the fans revolt) I intend to play it safe this time. I know I have little chance of winning this week as Gregers is so experienced but my aims this year are to get a win and finish a full season

Zombie Hulk? That sounds like it could be amazing...links would be appreciated haha
