WWA Season 9

Well, I never would have gotten any of those lol.

With the breaking news that Seth Rollins has torn his ACL and will be out of action for the foreseeable future, I have a 2 part QOTD:

Part 1: Is the break from Rollins a good or bad thing for the WWE crowd?

Part 2: If you were booking WWE how would you go about dealing the situation?

Part 1: Is the break from Rollins a good or bad thing for the WWE crowd?

Bad thing. The number one heel is gone and with WWE's booking theres no one viable at the minute to take that mantle.

Part 2: If you were booking WWE how would you go about dealing the situation?

A one night tournament will go one of three ways. You either make a huge babyface star, make someone a crazy heel by having them beat a hot babyface dirty, or have a Sheamus cash in on a face. At this point you're top 4 stars are on the shelf. You need to find someone the crowd will keep paying to see. Someone like Cesaro, but he isnt ready yet. Not quite. You have the old guard ex-champs like Sheamus, Henry and ADR who have experience but are boring in their own way. So what would I do?

Ambrose.

WAIT! Better idea. New Day.

Samo wrote:WAIT!  Better idea.  New Day.

Yes, that. Do that WWE, make all three members of the New Day World Champion.

Either that or just put the title on Reigns....

Sorry I've had to travel, I've not got internet coverage. Will try to give feedback asap

I'll be sending it tomorrow morning, sorry guys

Answer to my own QOTD

I believe a break from Rollins maybe a good thing, remember back in what 2009/2010 when all we saw was Sheamus & Orton and eventually we were sick and tired of them? Well, Rollins may have gone the same way but now, he has to take a break which may allow another big heel to develop that wouldn't have if Rollins wasn't injured or make Rollins an even bigger heel when her returns, you put the title on a big face, Reigns, Cesaro, Bryan, Ambrose, Zigglar or someone of that over with the crowd caliber and when Rollins returns he demolishes them that would make him a monster of a heel.

This is what I'd do: I've booked it in a WWE style so no CM Punk coming back and I've taken in to consideration that Cena is off the screen for a while.

Have the tournament for the World Heavyweight Title which would end at Survivor Series. Reigns makes his way through and in the semi finals beats Dean Ambrose. At Survivor Series you have Reigns finally winning the title beating a big heel only for Sheamus to cash in, taking the belt.

The next night on Raw Reigns has his rematch only to have Ambrose turn on him setting up a feud between the two which takes Reigns out of the title picture while Sheamus is booked to look strong against a few fan favourites.

Triple H gets involved in January an asks Reigns to join him in the Authority but Reigns refuses and is punished with HHH saying that he must enter the rumble in the number one spot and win or he cannot fight for the title for a certain amount of time. At the Rumble Reigns goes the distance, lasting all the way till the end until the last entrant...BRAWWWK LESSSSNAAARRR! Lesnar is able to eliminate Reigns and sets himself a mania date with Sheamus which he goes on to win.

After Mania Lesnar continues to look strong until we reach Survivor Series, Reigns ban is over and he wins a contendership match and is set to face Reigns at the Royal Rumble. Now knowing that the fans would probably boo Reigns as they see him as Cena 2.0 I would have him finally join the Authority to beat Lesnar and have him as the heel champion. During the Rumble main event he comes out to watch along side Triple H...roll on the number 30 spot and it's SETH ROLLINS! The crowd go crazy as he wins and the face turn is complete...Rollins says that joining the Authority was a mistake and it was time for him to take back the belt he never lost.

You've got a heel Reigns and Rollins is a massive face all of a sudden.

I would just push the former WWE Champion, top heel, movie star and Wrestlemania main eventer they already have.

The Miz

With the absence of Cena & Orton it eliminates the safe option and may actually force WWE to put their faith into somebody else and maybe even create a long-term main-eventer! Roman Reigns seems like the most logical choice but would fans absolutely sh#! all over it like they did at the Royal Rumble? Sheamus is just so bland and would absolutely hate him being anywhere near the main event of Wrestlemania. I don't think Ambrose is just quite there yet and Ziggler deserves a proper run after that shambles with Edge from Smackdown a few years back.

I know I'm completely contradicting my whole post hear but I wouldn't hate it if Triple H entered and won the tournament. If he happens to carry the title into post-wrestlemania, Rollins is waiting in the wings for a ready-made grudge fued.

Sheamus and Reigns arent bad options, but boring ones.

Pull the trigger on Owens.

Ok - I have added all results and feedback from Samo, Gregers, Tooze and myself into the admin section... If you have sent your stuff to Fernando that's fine but I won't be back online until tomorrow morning so the results will have to wait until then unless Fernando wants to post.

Remember Guys - PPV Shows are due a week today. If you feel like you are struggling for time, please don't be afraid to let me know and we will try our best to try and accommodate all deadlines. Let's have a big push and see out the last half of the season!

Nando has had my results since Monday lol. I don't need time, I've pretty much finished my PPV.

Nando has my results so we're waiting for Marky and Prometheus...Prometheus did say he'd be late though, hope it doesn't hold us up too much.

Nando has mine too

In Your Face: War Crimes is fully written and waiting the broadcast but, I'll hold off until the results are up.

I'm a long way from finished. It's all planned out, it's the matter of filling in the blanks where the matches should be.

Still awaiting votes / feedback from Prom before Week 4 Results go out. I'm in the same boat Marky, if a couple of you are struggling mid-week, just let us know and we will see if we have to extend the deadline until Sunday.

My segments are written but will need to be trimmed down a bit, the matches aren't started yet and I'm not looking forward to writing the 5 man Elimination XXXtreme Warfare match.

Have we had a week yet without at least one person being late?

Well, Vipers you know the trouble I had with my 6 man elimination and to be fair, where the others have been late they've warned us and been on time for the extended deadline.

I've written the first two matches but have decided to go to the main event and work back, that way if I have to rush to finish it off the main matches are done properly and it's a couple of mid show matches that suffer. If any of course.

I was too excited for this show cause of my plans so, I jumped on it as soon as I finished last show. I myself was looking forward to the card I had set up. Though I'll admit, I had a hard time deciding how to finish Wasteland, I had been dreading writing the match but, once I started it flowed easily until the closing moments, where suddenly the ending I had planned since we started this season, had some competition in ending. I think the better ending for what I wanted won out.

<howling wind>

Deadline next Sunday please if possible. Thanks!

Results will be revealed at midday tomorrow unless hear anything from Prometheus.

I've been in touch with Prometheus and he's assured me that he will be voting by lunch time tomorrow. He will be sending them to both of us Fernando.

Enigma, do you want my votes sent to you as well? I mean Nando has mine anyway but, if it'll make life easier I can send them over to you as well.

All votes for Week 4 have been put into the admin section so I don't need them now. It doesn't really matter which one of us you send them to as they all go the same place but it wouldn't hurt to send future votes to the pair of us.

Okie doke, in future I will send to both of you.

WEEK 4 Results
We have all our votes... As you can see, we couldn't have pressed ahead without Prom's votes as they made such an impact on a couple of deciding fixtures. If Fernando hasn't, I won't be able to post feedback until late this evening.

I will sort sheep, if no one else is in line for this week

Cant feel too bad about losing to nXtreme this week, was a great show.

GPW
The writing has improved and the flow of the show is better for it. The Ex division and mask vs mask matches were pretty cool, with the inclusion of Petron in the mix of the blood feud, you have given a weak story an interesting angle. The time challenges seem a little familiar but, I liked the matches, well, written and could have gone either way. That being said, using the Lesner and EC3 twice while not using the majority of your roster is a little lazy and a 10 suplex challenge for a PPV main event feels stupid to me and the lumberjack match had a few inconsistencies that if not rushed may have been avoided like asking for a 5 minute clock and giving EC3 10 minutes. Now, the elephant in the room, the big reveal was controversial to say the least. I wondered where you going with all the ghostly stuff and while I think the fighting to bring back kayfabe is a good idea with plenty of potential, the idea of bringing back dead wrestlers as ghosts is damn right stupid and offensive

GPW
A very good show with the Halloween theme a good idea to use. The EC3 and Lesnar feud has taken off and become the best part of your show, I know it was always about Dixie and Steph but I think it’s a good thing the focus has switched to the men. The Fenix/Pentagon stuff was great, really looking forward to seeing those two at the PPV. The contract signing between EC3 and Lesnar was great, with the added “Trick” at the end. But we need to talk about the finish. When I read it, my genuine reaction was “wut?” Wrestling has it’s fair share of the unlikely and the supernatural, but for Stephanie McMahon to summon a dead army of wrestlers just takes it too far.

GPW Feedback
Everything involving Russo was pure genius this week! From the costume changes through the alliance with EC3 just felt like true Russo... The beat the clock stipulation really shone to prove just how desperate EC3 is and his match with Brock should be a belter! I must admit, after reading the ending the best way to describe my feelings is speechless... There has been a ghost stable once before but I suppose this is fantasy booking after all so let’s see where this takes us.

GPW
+ I really liked Brock winning with 1 second remaining, I thought it was a really clever way of him winning whilst putting over the desperation of EC3
+ As someone who previously had Benoit, Guerrero and Owen claim return and say their deaths were works I really liked the ending of the show, WWA should be about pushing boundaries
- I didn't like the over use of Russo this week, and the stipulation for EC3 vs Brock does not particularly interest me to be honest

GPW
Felt a bit rushed this week, but I still enjoyed it. Despite not being a fan of the supernatural thing, the whole team of dead wrestlers coming back in a spectral form sounds fun, I can get behind it. I liked the 'Trick' theme running through the show, and I liked EC3 screwing himself over. Contract on a pole lumberjack match is Russo through and through, so 10/10 for that.


GPW
After weeks of teasing that we would be dealing with something a bit unique with GPW we finally get the reveal and I have to say, I'm not sure how I feel about it. The show started with another show down between Steph and Dixie which is a good thing to work with as it allows Russo to be Russo and book some pretty funny matches. I felt the Ex match was good but could have done with some diversity in the championships held, throwing a ROH champ in would have made the stipulation work a lot more in my opinion. I have to say that the matches this week were much better and that EC III v Lesnar is going to be a highlight but I feel a bit disappointed that more attention hasn't been paid to Pentagon Jr and Fenix as their feud was a highlight for me at the start of the season. Now, on to the main event reveal. I don't know how I feel at all, it's unique but I feel a little in bad taste to use the death of these wrestlers in a storyline. I'll withhold judgement for now to see where it goes from here.

---------------------------
XXX
Great final show before the PPV, the matches designed to enhance the stories leading into King of the Mountain 3 were fantastic. The Super Dragon reveal was also fantastically executed. Enjoyed the twist of Wyatt being part of the title match, which lead me to speculate on what’s to come, in my mind that is a good sign of great story telling. There were several grammar and coding mistakes that knocked the flow of the show. I only mention this as, I have no other issues with your show and this felt so, tiny that I wouldn’t have mentioned it, if I didn’t expect better from you.

Triple X
A very good show with the continuation of World War X, the matches throughout the show were relevant rather than just filling time, and the Candice LaRae v Jessicka Havok was pretty cool. The main event was very good and the aftermath was awesome, really looking forward to the PPV.

XXX Feedback
Let’s kick things off with a bang, the booking of Sin Cara and the reference between the dark / black mask and the association with Super Drag was executed superbly and is prove that with the right booking, anything is possible in this sport we love. Kota Ibushi in his heel persona has really caught the eye too and the Warefare match will be a real treat. Moving onto the Wyatt Family, I get why Bray was added to the Title Match but it seems like Viper has hit the panic button slightly here after Trevor Lee in my eyes didn’t impress and was hidden in tag matches. I would also argue that the introduction of the Television Title kind of makes the New York Title even less relevant as a secondary title now.

XXX
+ The building of the new Wyatt family is still superb, they come across as a genuine threat which is great to see
+ Super Dragon finally being revealed and tying it in to Sin Cara and Son of Havoc, I'm really looking forward to where this goes
- I felt there was a touch too high a reliance on a few wrestlers in a multitude of segments, but only a minor gripe

XXX
Really enjoying Ibushi. I loved the Steiner maths from the BFF's regarding the Battle Royal, gave me a smile. At times it felt a bit overwhelming and that you were trying to get as many people on the card at the same time, It can become a bit of a clustermuck. I liked the end with Excalibar losing the plot and the Super Dragon reveal.

EWA
Samo has continued to listen to feedback and each and every week he has improved his game. This week was no different, taking in feedback for other companies and including it in his own show, such as last weeks feedback for WWR where a recap was requested, Samo included that in his own show. The writing has gotten smother and the flow has improved because of it. Due to these improvements, I was able to really enjoy the show and get into the stories he has been trying to tell. Literally, the only downside I see to this weeks show was Punk/X-pac, Punk is so, much better than Pac so, it feels like a bit of a waste of Punk’s skills. After finishing reading all shows, I can now confirm, EWA as my favourite show this week.

EWA
A good show with the continuation of the tournament, the second chance gauntlet match gave this week’s show more about it, and gave a theme for the show. The Punk/XPac and Unsanctioned matches gave the show a real attitude style, and the latter built well for Okada v Ambrose. The main event was a proper underdog tale with Mysterio winning the gauntlet match then taking Lashley to the limit before coming up short. Shame there’s not more for Mysterio in the PPV other than the (likely) open challenge.

EWA
For a first season Samo has gone from strength to strength and this week shows just that. Having a recap got me straight in to the action and it was nice to start the show with a match. The show from the offset is slimline and easy to read and the action flows. Although I have a few issues with the show I have to admit they are small such as Punk's only match so far being wasted on X-Pac or having two improtue matches one after another (although the hardcore match was brilliant and got me excited for Ambrose/Okada). I'm looking forward to seeing who will be picked to win the Gold Rush but I feel like the matches so far have been very predictable up until this point. My last bit of negative feedback is pretty petty but I felt having Corbin run away from Neville was booked the wrong way, Corbin should be booked as a monster and having him be the one to run away kind of took some of the sting out of the feud. Overall a really good show with a few small changes needed but a brilliant show none the less, the PPV matches all feel important and I've been waiting for Okada and Ambrose since week 1!

EWA Feedback
Out of the blocks, I thought the second change gauntlet match provided to be a big hit, in particular the push of Noam Dar so I am looking forward to seeing how he can be pushed further. The Okada / Ambrose storyline has been one of my favourites this season so especially enjoyed the hardcore match with Sabu. Although most matches for the PPV are brewing nicely, I can’t help but feel the show felt slightly rushed together this week. I still haven’t quite worked out what the purpose of CM Punk is yet either, with such star power, it would be criminal not to involve him in a rivalry.

EWA Feedback

Didnt feel as fluent as previous weeks and would like to see more from Punk. However, really good gauntlet match really was a great start. Noam
Dar, Ambrose and Sabu interaction has me really interested.

--------------------

WWR
A decent show with good build for the PPV, Tyrus looks a real beast and Flair in his corner works well. Reigns being paired with the Samoan Gangstaz was brilliant, a real “will he, wont he” dilemma for the show as a theme building to the main event. Good to see The Vaudevillains win, shame they aren’t in a match for the PPV. The beat the clock challenge served it’s purpose, getting Kennedy to face Sandow with no interference in the cage. The main event was good with Reigns staying as he is, but I wouldn’t be shocked to see him turn heel down the line.

WWR
WWR starts with a great recap that jogs the memory and immerses us straight in to the show, Thunder does well to get the action flowing and straight away gets me interested in what phase 2 could be. I've been enjoying the dynamic between the Flair guys over the past few weeks and while I could see Sandow with the Nature Boy I can't exactly say the same for Spud/Tyrus. The main event really hyped up The Wasteland Match with Reigns and his bad ass attitude really coming across as strong. I'd say the biggest plus is that WWR's go home show has managed to set up the PPV really well with MVP v Henry and the International tag match being set up perfectly. I'm holding judgement for ACH vs Big Show but I feel like Thunder is showing faith in ACH which is a great thing. Overall a good show that left me excited to see the PPV and that main event despite the inclusion of Rosie and Umaga who I am not massive fans of.

WWR Feedback
The booking of Roman Reigns continues to really intrigue me here as I have no idea who’s side he’s on which almost takes me back to my childhood when I first started watching, the writing teasing between the lines has been superb. Uso’s as heel continues to be a refreshing change of pace and I look forward to their match against The Dudley Boyz. I mentioned this last week and will again this week, I’m still not 100% sure what this Wasteland Gimmick is so probably felt a segment or the main-event would have been in better use if it had the same environment.

WWR
+ I really like the stable with Flair, its new and unique and I really like it! All of the members are believable as a team, great writing!
+ The angle with Reigns really is superb, its exactly how he should be booked. Just as a total bad ass!
- I'm still confused as to what the Wasteland match is going to be, but as my only complaint you can see just how awesome this show was this week!

WWR
There are a few guys being used really well, like Mark Henry and Tyrus. Uso's as heels is refreshing. Roman Reigns promo was good and simple, and good to see him not siding with the Gangstaz. I can feel a blow off match between him and Austin coming which Im looking forward to. Wasteland match sounds like fun, adding the eliminated as Lumberjacks would be interesting in a Survivor Series style, because you would have another layer of a vendetta. Good idea.

WWR Feedback
Dont understand what a Wasteland Match is but I am sure I will find out! The Stuff with Reigns is first class and I wish he was used this way in WWE! Not sold on Usos being heels but at least its different. Very good show overall.

------------------

MWF
I think it was a decent show from Tooze, hard to get momentum coming in mid season so wont hold that against him. I feel like the whole PPV should have been announced as while Tooze is going for a Progress style of announcing matches via social media, it doesn’t really work in WWA when it’s just us. A couple of standout matches on the card but feel Johnny Mundo should be in one of the title matches

MWF
Last week I found myself a little disappointed by MWF's return as I felt it was rushed and was missing the spark of old MWF shows, that being said those concerns were stopped this week with a brilliant return to form. I felt the show had very little in negatives, I did feel the main event was too predictable BUT seeing the International Title take centre stage was refreshing to see. Another minor gripe is the fact that not knowing some of the teams such as the UK Hooligans it would be nice to have their names mentioned so that I don't have to rack my brains to work out which wrestlers they are, this is just me being picky though. Overall a really good return to form with some great moments such as Gulak's shocking loss and the obvious fact that MWF is taking female wrestling seriously I would say though that a cage match with only a week of build does seem a bit drastic. This match up of WWR and MWF was really hard as both put out great shows and offered great things, Tooze has done well in the past to educate me on new wrestlers and this season looks like it will be the same.

MWF Feedback
Considering the short amount of time in the build up to the PPV, most if not all matches have storylines and Tooze deserves big praise for that. I’m looking forward to seeing how Drew Gulak & Jay Lethal work together. Not sure if Luke Hawk was injured this week I feel he needs to have a much bigger presence on the show if he holds the most precious title, I don’t think he was mentioned once!

MWF
+ I like the fact that you still have MWF rules matches, it keeps your feud so different to any others! Keep it up!
+ The show had such a big feel to it throughout, given that you've only had 2 weeks and not 4 the fact that your PPV has come together so well shows how good a writer you are and how invested you get me into your storylines. I also really liked the fact that your top two titles are on an almost level pegging of importance with each other
- The X division changing hands felt a little rushed given the rematch on PPV, I think a DQ finish would have been better than the title change

MWF
Better written this week but Im going to feel like a dick for saying it, but there are some spelling and grammar mistakes which make it a bit tough to read at times. However, it was a good show given that you joined nearly half way and are playing catch up. Apart from Rollins and Owens your roster doesnt really have big name star power, but its still working and creating new stars - which is what this is all about.

MWF
Now that’s more like it! The mark in me is glad to see Tooze and the MWF at full swing, the competitor in me is running scared. That show was the show, I expected last week. It set up some good stories and even better matches heading in to Return of a King. It was a great use of the roster and no one person felt out of place, with the spots they were given. All round, the well written show we’ve come to expect from Tooze. The only thing I would have done differently is swapped the World and International number one contender matches around, totally agree with the bookings though.

MWF Feedback

Well done on getting a PPV card up in only two weeks. The only criticism is that the X division changed hands just before the PPV. Personally I
think that the match should be happening for the first time at the PPV. Not sure who the main champion is though as he didnt appear!

---------------

nXtreme
Another solid show, I like the Christian/Sabin angle, some awesome matches lined up for the PPV and also the Best of 5 series looks very interesting. Tag Title invitational looks good, I would have my money on JBL and Ron Simmons if bets were taken. Enjoyed The New Day but needs more of them. The contract signing was cool and with a great twist.

Nxtreme this week kicks off with what I believe is the highlight of Chris Sabin, a storyline that has spread over two seasons and has yet to feel boring at all, this is a huge achievement by Greggers. The show continues with some great segments that hype feuds and also build the tension and distrust between the people involved. The Queen/Princess feud is really exciting and I have no clue who the princess is but I wouldn't be disappointed if it WAS Becky Lynch. The New Day stuff is great as always but I feel that the second suicide is obvious, I also feel really frustrated that New Day didn't unmask Suicide when they took both of them down but I get that this reveal should be at a PPV and finally, I saw the PPV main event being announced but that doesn't mean it isn't exciting. Overall another great show but sadly one that is let down by the amount of segments and although it might help with some people sacrificing a match for a segment doesn't really help.

nXtreme Feedback
As always, a very high quality show that built up every single match heading into the PPV! I must admit, I haven’t been the biggest fan of the ‘Suicide’ angle since it featured so dominantly in previous seasons but it really excelled and went to another level this week and I love the interaction with The New Day! Only criticism I have was the finish surrounding the best of 5 series, I understand why but I felt the DQ didn’t really work when it was the first match of the series!

nXtreme
Really, really enjoying the New Day vs Suicide feud. Gable and Jordan vs WGTT in a best of five, love it. Really like the formatting as it makes it really easy to read. Really looking forward to the PPV.

nXtreme
A great show heading in to PPV, storylines were added to and matches made. Still enjoying the Princess/Queen storyline, though I still believe Lynch, while the lynch pin of the story (sorry couldn’t resist the pun), is a red herring and she is not the princess behind the story. Double Suicide/New Day storyline is another favourite of mine gaining momentum this week by evening things up a little. While I am glad to see Aries in the main event of Implosion, I am a little disappointed in the continuity error. This week you stated that JBL added the extra time to the ironman match without consent from Vince or the Board however, last week at the end of the original time limit, Vince and JBL appeared and the words “the pair reveal the match will continue,” were written, therefore, JBL not having Vince’s permission is an error in the continuity of the storyline.

nXtreme Feedback
I think the way that Suicide(s) has come together is brilliant. Really working well for you. They bounce off the New Day superbly.No real criticisms and looking forward to the PPV.

WAF
This weeks WAF starts out with a massive positive as we see a big change to the usual WAF format of having every title defended and random matches, it was a change that really helped the show and helped build storylines. This episode sees the PPV fill up nicely with a few filler matches booked to get everyone on the card, not every match excites me BUT the hardcore title, the Progress title and the two matches linked to the world title really do. Luke Harper continues to look like a beast and the chaotic ending got me hyped for the two main events, the only issue is that having an Elimination Chamber AND a TLC could be overkill and take away from each other. Overall a great show, a huge improvement and the biggest surprise for me is that with a federation involving guys like Taker, Kane, Rock, Orton and Edge that a storyline based on Progress Wrestling is the highlight of the show for me, this to me is a credit to Marky and I would love to see the second half focus more on building storylines and not just throwing everything in to the shows.

WAF
+ The new ministry standing tall at the end was exactly how the show should have ended, as was Ryback taking the pinfall given the talent in the ring "The Big Guy" had to be the one to be pinned
+ The booking of Breeze as a perfect heel continues to be great, one of the best booked characters in WWA this season
- I'm still not really sold on the Progress storyline, I like the wrestlers but the use of the PROGRESS name doesn't really feel like it works to me

WAF
Still loving Breeze, you want to see him get beat at the PPV as he's such a smug dick. Good build up to the PPV main event, and nice to see the winning team with their eyes on the prize and attacking each other after the match. Looking forward to see how Kane and Viscera work together in the Chamber, I just hope with 9 matches to book you dont burn yourself out

WAF
I really enjoyed that show, dropping the titles defended rule, along with the roulette for a week was a really nice change and showed your ability to write, good, readable shows without having to rely on gimmicks. The show really set up well for the PPV and advanced the stories forward. The Bellas and Naomi vs the Beautiful people, really came out of left field. Still enjoying the PROGRESS guys and their storyline, although, I’d still have preferred it to have nothing to do with PROGRESS, I don’t know the company so, why should I care where they came from, to me it’s about what they do, now that I know them. Jesus, I never thought I’d have to think so, hard between NGPW & WAF

WAF
My favourite show of the week (again). Clever ending with Ryback being pinned - the ministry is such a great idea to revisit (reimagine). Progress stuff is great and I like how established stars are in a entertaining show with Progress stars. It legitimises them for me.

----------

NGPW
+ How Paige managed to beat Kong was great, Kong still looked unstoppable despite her defeat this week
+ The domination of NGPW by the Cartel was fantastically written, I want to see the Cartel get their comeuppance which shows how invested in the storyline I am
- I still want more backstage segments/VTs!

NGPW
Very good go home show leading in the PPV, every feud got a mention and there are some great match-ups there. Prison Warfare sounds interesting, looking forward to seeing guys trying to escape while chained together. Im really liking the Cartel - in a competition filled with Heel Stables this one is my favourite at the moment.

NGPW
I think it's no secret that NGPW is one of the best shows when it coems to WWA, it showed this once again this week by providing brilliant matches and a progression towards the first PPV of the season. From the outset storylines are cemented in to their matches and Dario Cueto is proven to be a great heel owner, my only issue with this is that the storyline is very reminiscent of last season with the British Embassy, both tell the story of a heel boss protecting a heel champion and this is why I wish Raven stayed as the anti authority face as this separated the stories enough for me. This being said I am enjoying it and the main event was a highlight not only for the action but for how evil Cueto was by booking it. The Prison Warfare match is interesting so I'm looking forward to it and having Pagie win by count out is smart as she now has something to prove at the PPV. Overall a really good show that leads us to a really good PPV, I feel that there may be too many stipulations but I'll reserve judgement for the show itself.

NGPW
A captivating read, a big fan of the last three matches of the night, and really looking forward to the PPV. Paige v Kong looks good, having Paige face Kong to earn her shot was a nice twist with both women looking strong. The Cartel v NGPW was great, and the Jeff Hardy v Cactus Jack match even better with so much hinging on it. Very well written.

NGPW
As entertaining as ever, NGPW put out a classic show that sets up the PPV perfectly. I enjoyed the main event and was pleasantly surprised the Mick got the win, sorry but, I am a big mark for the Foley man. Another pleasant surprise was Paige beating Kong, it kept Kong looking like a monster but, also opened the window for a Paige win at Black Justice. Despite the rule change from 10 lines per match to 60 lines per show, I still had issue with the big match, if it had been a main event I probably would have had an easier time reading it.

NGPW
Kong is such a great character, especially in the WWA world. She has been written perfectly imo. Not enough backstage segments for my liking but I am looking forward to seeing how the Cartel will eventually get beat!

Didn't expect to get something out of NGPW!

Good feedback, I get the issues with using PROGRESS' name but it's only up to this PPV, then it's done and just down to the wrestlers. It was a way of establishing them.

Never one to really answer any feedback but I feel I must clear this up...

my only issue with this is that the storyline is very reminiscent of last season with the British Embassy, both tell the story of a heel boss protecting a heel champion and this is why I wish Raven stayed as the anti authority face as this separated the stories enough for me.

The only similarities here are that they are stables that happen to both be heel's. The British Embassy were against NGPW but only wanted nothing more than to capture the NGPW Heavyweight Title which they failed to do so. It was only later in the season they alligned with the Authority Figure which caused an internal struggle between Prince Devitt, Neville, Zack Sabre JR and the British Embassy Fraction.

This season, Dario Cueto assembled and introduced his own stable to protect his assets, by doing so by any means necessary through bribes, manipulation and greed. Raven remained the anti-authority character until siding with the stable during Week 2 this season so it's the first time a heel stable has actually held 1 or more title who were actually apart of the Authority Figure's stable.

Fernando wrote:I get why Bray was added to the Title Match but it seems like Viper has hit the panic button slightly here after Trevor Lee in my eyes didn’t impress and was hidden in tag matches.

In a few shows time this will all make sense...hopefully.
Also if the show is beginning to feel like a cluster"muck"...then good

Not that I'm complaining but, I beat Tooze? Really didn't expect that, was hoping for a draw at the best. For those who don't get the Wasteland match, think of it like as a six way elimination match, rather than heading to the back when your eliminated you stick around and act as a lumberjack of sorts. It allow those eliminated to help out people they like or screw over people they don't. So, if one of the Gangstaz gets eliminated he could still have the others back, while if Eddie, who is pro WWR was eliminated he could mess with the Gangstaz chances of winning. On that note, I'm going to steal the results and update the table.

Heading into the first PPV week, it is still anyone's game.

After editing like a hundred times, WWR In Your Face: War Crimes is finally up and looking how I wanted it to.

Bloody Hell! It's quiet on here... Everybody reckon they will meet the PPV Show deadlines? Incase you missed the announcement, each promotion was awarded an additional £25 Million so if you haven't, please add to your budgets.

Who wants to have a go at running sheep this week? Tooze, you still keen?

WWA Anagrams will also make it's return, this time £1 Million will be rewarded for each right answer.

I probably still won't get a single one. As you can see I've already made the dead line itching to read everyone elses.

Yeah I will sort one
If it can be moved to Sunday for deadline it will be better for me as get weekend to write as well then

Seeing as Gregers & Tooze have both asked to extend the deadline, we will extend the deadline until Sunday. We always budgeted that it'll take two weeks so we will have to look at shortening the season somewhere down the line.

PPV DEADLINE EXTENDED UNTIL SUNDAY 15TH NOVEMBER
PPV VOTING EXTENDED UNTIL WEDNESDAY 18TH NOVEMBER

Sunday deadline is fine by me. Im nearly finished but gives me a few more days to tinker.

Roughly here's an idea of what the schedule will look like for the reminder of the season...

PPV Deadline - Sunday 15th November (14 Days)
WEEK 5 DEADLINE - Sunday 22nd November (7 Days)
WEEK 6 DEADLINE - Wednesday 2nd December (10 Days)
WEEK 7 DEADLINE - Sunday 13th December (10 Days)
FINAL PPV SHOW - Wednesday 23rd December (10 Days)

Happy to draw injuries for Week 5 later this week so those of you who have finished your PPV show's can crack on with starting week 5. Everybody think it sounds fair? Don't want to run the season any later so we can all enjoy Xmas.

I think Week 5 injuries need to be sooner rather than later due to the quick turnaround. But that looks fine to me.

Hey guys

Glad to see WWA going strong still. I'll register my interest for a next season if you decide to have one.
