* With feedback gained from your first show, did you take it on board and if so how did you implement it in to episode two of House Of Ishida?
* Uryu, you were a late comer this season and had to start with a roster started by someone else...how happy were you with the state of your roster?
* If you could acquire three superstars of your choice...who would they be and why?
* At this moment in time, who do you see as the current top 3 from the two shows that have been posted so far?
1: People usually hate my answer to this but I already have my entire story planned out with the guys I have I aquired, they may not make sense indavidually but in the long run, they sorta work. I just have to find my short term balance now
2: I was kinda happy with it being last minute, I got storylines up and running that I wanted to try out, it wasn't totally suck and I am glad that the people in the free market were there as I knew a few I wanted and I am suprised people passed on!
3: All 3 would be to improve storylines. AJ Styles, Tanahashi and The Great Muta
4: Top 3 shows...well, Hero, Gregers are definatly top 2 but I also like Toozes

Did you ever get anywhere trying to be a manager in real life?
WWE or TNA or ROH?
6: If I was not a last minute choice I would have traded more but when I joined rosters were 90% locked so I saw little point
7: Well I have tried but lack of experience cost me as well as my hot headedness
8: WCW Reruns

Same as before:
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?

1. Looking at your shows so far, is there a particular theme you're going for regarding the roster and the storylines? There seems to be hints of WCW with a style of Mexican/Lucha Libre
2. With this now being your third season, the shows and writing seem to have improved greatly, Have you changed your approach this season?

16: Well there is really no overall storyline theme but I am taking a gamble with the first month as writing one storyline is pretty hard....
17: Well I am playing it safer than previous years and I am just going with the flow in terms of writing

Dolphin Ziggler wrote:1. How on earth do you find the time and desire to write that much?

1.I'll be honest, I get weirdly in to things and only work 4 days a week due to doing two 12 hour shifts a week...I'm a massive geek when it comes down to it and as a kid I used to write my own wrestling shows all the time so it's a bit like that. I think also, it's the first time I've done this so I haven't been able to find a nice balance of description while not writing an essay...also I can type pretty quickly so it's all good.
2. I'm not sure tbh, part of me is saying CM Punk but he actually wouldn't fit in to my story lines...same with Rollins as I'm not using the Shield as the Shield and probably wouldn't have as I like the dynamic of Graves, Ambrose, Younger and Jacobs as the weird misfit crew. Before we had our rosters handed out I loved the idea of getting Punk and Austin and having Austin as commissioner leading to a Punk/Austin showdown. If I had to chose though, I'd probably say Ziggler or Kingston due to the fact they suit my roster the most with some of the smaller guys I have.
I think when I got Cesaro along with Wyatt and the family I got the ones I really wanted. Ambrose was a massive bonus
(just realised how long these answers were and you now begin to see how hard I find it to type short things.

1. I've really enjoyed it tbh, so much so that I've already got ideas for next season. Like I said in a previous answer I used to do stuff like this on my own when I was a kid so to have a group of people to do it with and get feedback is really cool. I also loved the challenge of trying to get the roster that you wanted...sacrificing the people you might have wanted to get someone that you REALLY wanted.
2. If I could swap rosters it would probably be with CF, especially when it started...Punk, Sandow, Ohno/Hero and Henry as a starting base with Ryder and Bourne backing that up was a dream roster...just a shame it went to someone who didn't even attempt to get involved...if someone like me or Hero (especially Hero) got our hands on that roster some amazing deals could have been made.
3. At the half way point I'd put my money on Hero, Gregers, Thunder and yourself getting in there.

Which wrestler in another fed that previously you didn't know about are you now interested in?
1. I'll go with 12 duck size horses, firstly, 12 is my lucky number...also when I was a child my Dad's friend had a pet goose and that was dangerous enough without being bigger than me.
2. I do like Randy Orton BUT my name on here isn't due to that...I originally signed up to the forum to join EWF and take part in e-fedding. Viper has always been the nickname I've given my created wrestlers...I remember playing WWF Wrestlemania 2000 and I chose that and since then it's always been the name I've used so it seemed like the best name to use for the e-fed. I have to be honest I was so annoyed when I started watching wrestling again and saw the nickname he was using haha
3. I know it's technically not a feud BUT Kingston and Steen's fight for power is my favourite at the moment.
4. I don't want to insult anyone else so I'm going to go with Joe Hennig from my own shows...I almost forgot that he was there and haven't featured him since like week 2 or something...will need to change that soon.
5. It's a toss up between a load of guys in your fed, I've always just watched WWE and sometimes TNA and even though I've done a bit of research from time to time I knew very little about indie wrestling up until joining this forum and coming on the wrestling part of it. The guys I've started to really like are Eddie Kingston, The Super Smash Brothers and Uuha Nation....Kingston for his amazing mic work, Smash Brothers for the best gimmick I've seen and Uuha Nation for being a future star.

I'm very tired right now so I don't know if you mean...a feud from every roster or which two guys would you like to see feud if you could put them together...the second one is less work so I'll go for that haha I'd love to see Dean Ambrose and Mick Foley...I'd have Mick as a commentator or commissioner and Ambrose would slowly but surely get him back for one match, pushing him and taunting him saying that he'd gone soft until Cactus Jack was brought out...ending in a street fight between the two.

1. I'll probably go with you at the moment just due to the fact that you've beaten both me and Chris and you've drawn with someone that I see as one of the favourites (Gregers)...I also have to still face Gregers and Hero so I'll be losing more points there.
2. CF, as I stated in this post he had a near perfect start with his bigger stars and could have easily improved on that without really trying...shame he didn't try at all.
3. I'll be honest I'm really happy with mine, if I had to swap though I'd probably go with T.W.A.T's roster as I feel it's similar to mine as in it's quite WWE orientated so I wouldn't have to do as much research as if I'd taken over Hero's.
4. You've known me for 12 years, at one point being a wrestler was my dream job...right now if I could do it I'd jump at the chance of being a wrestler or part of creative.
5. I work in a care home, I think I'd take any other job that was offered to me given the chance.
I think that means I get my money now? Sweet!
Still ask more if you'd like though.

Well I remember talking about ideas with you when this all kicked off and how I had an idea to have a british invasion angle (which I dropped when I realised that you were wanting the same guys as me) and for some reason I always saw Regal as a big part of that, the sort of leader of the pack almost...i'd say Regal would have been cool to see.
Or maybe The Rock for the Samoan team? He's the biggest star in Wrestling but then again he may not have fit in with that team.
I've just noticed that none of the questions so far have been about EGW...anything you guys want to know?

Re: WWA: Spotlight Podcast
Regal and Rocky were people I thought of, in the end I went with the Pacific Islanders being more on the island theme which ruled Rocky out.
Regal would have taken the Magnus role which was also up for grabs by Wade Barratt. In the end I went with a guy that I rate highly (rare for nXtreme over the seasons)
The other plans for the Pacific Islanders saw Samoa Joe being seen as an outsider (he's not actually from Samoa) and Roman Reigns doing the Fale role
---
What have you found hardest about WWA so far?
What would you change about your roster building style if you could go back?
Would you ever consider doing a them (as trademarked by nXtreme)?

1. I think the hardest thing is finding a role for everyone, so that everyone has a purpose...also not writing an essay for every segment...I'll get it soon I hope...maybe by season 15 haha
2. I wouldn't have been as nice...I think I let people go for ludicrous prices when I could have got much more for them...I also might have held back when going for guys like Wyatt...I think a lot of people might have felt I was ripped off in that deal BUT overall it worked out for the best.
3. I think it's something I'll look in to...the time we're given to show our federation suits itself much better to a tournament/league style show instead of a weekly show that I've gone for...season 6 will probably see a mixture of the two building up to the last PPV with a big finish instead of story lines built over two months.

1. What were your original plans for The Briscoe's before trading them?
2. What can we expect for the second half of the season? Any particular angles or names we should be looking out for?
3. Favorite wrestling promotion... WWE, TNA etc...? What do you watch/keep an eye on?

1. Without giving too much away they would have originally feuded with the Family losing the tag title match at the first PPV, after that they would have joined up with whoever the world champion was to take on the number one contender Bray Wyatt and the tag champions The Family but as they went the plan has changed and cost Wyatt the guaranteed number one contendership...maybe! I originally got them without a plan though tbh, I just think they're awesome and knew to get in quickly as they'd be in a lot of demand, I think that I got a good deal for them too as they got me a load of money and members for Insanity.
2. Pretty much the same style of storyline heavy shows with a few new faces being introduced after the PPV...we suggest keeping your eyes on Dolph Ziggler as he has a very interesting stipulation in his contract...one star will be fired at our PPV and a few more may find themselves surplus to requirement.
3. Mainly WWE but I'll watch TNA on challenge now and again and I check in on Ring Of Honour as well as watching random matches on youtube...nothing major, just when I'm bored haha

Re: WWA: Spotlight Podcast
Then let us start with the big five
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?

I think viper has a good chance of making the semi finals if he keeps going how he is going now, its very close between you both however and I can see you both ending up close if not in the play offs. Chris now he has made the joke less prominent and is now seemingly pushing a storyline through more he will also be pushing you both. But I see viper proberly ending up in the higher positon of you all
2. Out of all the starting rosters whose did you want the most?
CF's he had a decent mix of everything to give him a strong mid card upwards, including punk, who was one of my main people I wanted this season but his inflated prices he made up made there no point even attempting to get him.
3. And current rosters?
Can I say mine? Im really happy with and think it may be my strongest yet. having punk has made it even stronger. If I cant I will go with hero's because it really is whos who of the indys at the moment with a sprinkling of some real quality in there too. I think in a way we have very similar rosters that make some of you guys have to consult google a little
4. in real life, what position in a wrestling company would you want? (ie wrestler, booker, commentator so on and so forth)
Manager, I would be the really weaselly bobby heenan type manager
5. Also would you accept any other job?
Referee, because my fitness isnt the greatest to be a wrestler and my voice isnt really commentary material. so ref would be the next best choice for me.

*As a veteran of the WWA which do you think is the most important thing to have, a strong, well balanced roster or strong story lines?
* Having acquired everyone's favourite wrestler CM Punk do you feel pressured to put the belt on him to keep people happy?
* As a wrestling fan who is your least favourite wrestler and have you ever been tempted to acquire them in WWA just to make their life a misery?
* Out of the EGW roster, which two superstars would you like to see face off the most?
* Another EGW related question, how did you feel about the El Generico/Sami Zayn heel turn that saw him betray his long time friend and the nicest guy in wrestling...Colt Cabana?

I think its a mixture of both, if you fill a roster with complete unknowns you will struggle as well not many people would know them, but if you have a strong to medium strength ( A mix of Indy's/ those unknown and big name) roster with decent story tellling you should be ok
* Having acquired everyone's favourite wrestler CM Punk do you feel pressured to put the belt on him to keep people happy?
not really, if he gets the title at the ppv it will be because I feel its right for him to have it, not because of pressure from others.
* As a wrestling fan who is your least favourite wrestler and have you ever been tempted to acquire them in WWA just to make their life a misery?
Davey Richards, thinks he works the strong style but when he meets a real strong style guy cant get close to them an crys that he is hit too hard. I was tempted last season when I had the likes of Shingo and MASADA who can work that style and just put them against him every week, but my dislike of him put me off. Oh did I mention he is also bores me to death
* Out of the EGW roster, which two superstars would you like to see face off the most?
Antonio Cesaro and Drake Younger, with younger now looking to move away from the deathmatch scene and him being known to be a hard hitter it would make sense for him to take on another hard hitter. the similar styles would make for a very fun match
* Another EGW related question, how did you feel about the El Generico/Sami Zayn heel turn that saw him betray his long time friend and the nicest guy in wrestling...Colt Cabana?
I think it will work, as you say they have a good history between them. which should set you in good stead if thats played on. Im looking forward to seeing which way you take it if it will be filled with comedy spots or if it will be straight up

Re: WWA: Spotlight Podcast
1. Have injuries helped or hindered your development of storylines/matches this season?
2. Over previous seasons, it's clear to see your love of British wrestling with the styles and the roster. Are there any themes/styles you've considered or have planned in future seasons?
3. Will Steve Corino ever be free from MWF wrestling?
4. Are you looking to mix things up with your roster after your first PPV has aired?

* With the people left to face, who do you see as the one person who will take your current streak?
* With it being the PPV week what should we expect from MWF?

Its put some of the tournament matches back a week but other than that hasnt changed too much. if anything it helped in some cases like haskins being attacked by tajiri which has helped build a main feud for the first half of the season
2. Over previous seasons, it's clear to see your love of British wrestling with the styles and the roster. Are there any themes/styles you've considered or have planned in future seasons?
Oh yeah I love the british style, thats why most title matches are fought in the old WOS rounds system. I have thought about having a full X division roster and having an equivalent to the NJPW super junior singles and tag touranments. we have had an x cup before but this would be bigger with 4 groups of 8 or similar
3. Will Steve Corino ever be free from MWF wrestling?
No he is stuck here for ever mwahahaha
4. Are you looking to mix things up with your roster after your first PPV has aired?
There may be one or two leave and 1 or two come in, we will see after the PPV

no idea really whats it down to, it usually takes this long for me to pick up a couple of points. I dont see myself remaining undefeated, I will undoubtly drop points at some point this season, I would still just be happy being in the play offs and cement my highest league positon so far
* With the people left to face, who do you see as the one person who will take your current streak?
I still have yourself, chris and hero to face so have a tough run in especially since you are all coming into your own now and putting on some good shows so far. I expect to lose points to atleast one of you and that person will be which ever one takes the most confidence after the ppv.
* With it being the PPV week what should we expect from MWF?
Very similar as to what has been happening in the weekly shows just on a larger scale. of course you have new champions to be crowned in the tournament finals. theres also cage of death so that will be very brutal/ so new champs, ultra violence and hopefully an all round good show is what you can expect

Re: WWA: Spotlight Podcast
These questions are for Enigma:
* We are more than half way through WWA season 5, looking back on the results you have had are you happy with how you have done so far?
* 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?
* Have injuries been a problem for you this year or have they helped develop better storylines?
* 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?
