Being brutally honest with myself, I'm probably where I expect to be. I suffered burnout towards the end of last season and because there was such a quick, unplanned turnaround in launching Season 5, I struggled to jot any storylines down and starting grasping at picking up talent, which looking back has been costly. Just as a little teaser, if I can put the correct jigsaw pieces together, the second half of the season looks very promising.

xviperx wrote:With Nando and CF dropping out we had the second ever WWA Draft, how has the draft changed your show, were you happy with the talent brought in?

There's one particular name I was extremely happy to have brought in. I've actually tried numerous times to sign him in previous seasons but never got the opportunity to do so. It's certainly opened up a short, but intense angle for the second half of season. The rest will be available to trade to freshen things up.

xviperx wrote:Have injuries been a problem for you this year or have they helped develop better storylines?

Injuries have absolutely decimated my storylines this season. I've had 3 key injuries which have completely changed the development side of things including turning a storyline backwards. There's certainly holes in the logic of my bookings this season with gaps throughout

xviperx wrote:Last question, at this point in time (and looking at the upcoming fixtures) who do you see as the four men to lead WWA in to the semi-finals?

Special mention to Hero before I make my predictions, I know time has cost him dearly, quality wise on what he's capable of putting out as a show, but he's consistently good at telling a story and with a strong roster, he could very well pip a place in the final four.

My preditcions as of now - 1st - Tooze, 2nd - Viper, 3rd - Gregers, 4th - Thunder

1. Out of all the newbies to this, who do think will do the best?
2. Out of all the starting rosters whose did you want the most?
3. And current rosters?
4. in real life, what position in a wrestling company would you want? (ie wrestler, booker, commentator so on and so forth)
5. Also would you accept any other job?

Here's my standard five and a new one

1. Out of all the newbies to this, who do think will do the best?
2. Out of all the starting rosters whose did you want the most?
3. And current rosters?
4. in real life, what position in a wrestling company would you want? (ie wrestler, booker, commentator so on and so forth)
5. Also would you accept any other job?
6. Have the problems of this season put you off getting involved again?

Can't really choose between Thunder & Viper, even Chris had his moments before he left, but Thunder & Viper has set the bar so high this season, I'd love to see both return next season.

Gregers had a very interesting core roster, so did CF but that was completely waisted on him

Thunder87 wrote:3. And current rosters?

Being an Indy fan it has to be Hero, he's somehow put together a dream roster. Shame it ended the way it did...

Thunder87 wrote:4. in real life, what position in a wrestling company would you want? (ie wrestler, booker, commentator so on and so forth)

I'd actually love to be a writer, mainly focusing on building Tag Team and Mid-Card talent. Or Working behind the scenes bringing shows together and booking arena's like some of the old ECW talent had in the day would be a fantastic job to get an overall experience on how the business works.

Thunder87 wrote:5. Also would you accept any other job?

Being a booker would be a cool job, brining in talent and mapping out matches and storylines would be real fun as an actual paid job, apart from that being a wrestler would be fun working your way up from the Indy's

Thunder87 wrote:6. Have the problems of this season put you off getting involved again?

No not at all. We've had 4 consistently good seasons before this one, I hope this hasn't put off either Thunder or Viper because both have been a breath of fresh air around the place. When Fernando returns next season, we'll have a decent core of 6 GM's, then if we get a few old favorites back such as Marky or JJ then we'll be onto a winner!

I'll be a part of next season for sure!

I'm too stubborn to be put off things I enjoy
