Carnage cuts to a video segment as we see Bob Sparks sitting somewhere in a dark room. He sits there alone as no one else is around no BulletProof, no Mafia, and no Raven. He then begins to speak. You know the royal rumble...sure it's about revenge. But I don’t hate Raven, in fact I almost feel sorry for him. You see I was once a puppet to him as well. All of you would have watched my career fade away and Bob Sparks become nothing more than another young guy lost in the shuffle. Now though that is no longer a concern. Trust me you’ll be seeing this face for a while and you’ll be seeing it at the top. Raven though, well that is a whole different story. A man with potential wasted. A man who could be the next top guy squandered away because the one he looks to for advice cares more about his ego. A tragic story but a story that I must put to an end at the Royal Rumble. Bob Sparks then sighs as he looks around the room but there is nothing to be seen. Nothing but emptiness and darkness surrounding Bob. We see Bob pull something out of his pocket but he shakes his head before speaking once again. Another tragic BPZ story this one I can’t bear to watch any longer. I see all these guys walking around backstage and all I see is emptiness, darkness. No one has any passion anymore. No more drive to be seen anywhere around. You see although you all hate BulletProof there is no one that is going to stop us. We have that fire we have that passion where no one else comes close. Now trust me we have heard you all. You say we are running this company into the ground, we have to many members and we are going to fall apart sooner than later. Now you see this is where you are wrong. BulletProof we have passion and we have that drive that you can’t find anywhere else. And if that drive fades away your time in BulletProof fades away as well. BulletProof was made for the strong not the weak and that’s why you don’t think of the Mafia as anything more than a second class faction. Bob then pauses and smiles as we begin to hear two objects crashing against each other as Bob begins to speak once again with sweat running down his face. You see Raven you were not the guy and you never where. Always second fiddle, always the third wheel. That guy who can take the loss again and again because he is okay with it. You see Raven that’s the difference between guys like me and you. I refuse to lose where you are fine laying down and being another man’s bitch. So Raven I’ll leave you with this are going to give more your best at the Royal Rumble or am I going to have to light the spark myself? We then see Sparks fly in front of Bob as a fire engulfs in front of him. Bob then walks off the room as we hear sirens go off followed by laughter. Bob Sparks is clearly ready for this matchup with Raven at the rumble and it should be a great matchup.

Cinemas are packed full these days with sequels and franchises, so you can't really blame movies for trying to set up future adventures. Of course, not every movie can get the sequel it desires since of course some of them tank, some get a critical mauling. That's fine if the movie works as a standalone, but it is a bit awkward when it seems to blatantly set up a sequel that never comes. As sequels started to seem more like a given than a gift, some movies began setting them up right there in the first film, promising even greater adventures with the characters we'd just come to know. But sometimes, for a variety of reasons, this didn't always work out and audiences were left hanging, awaiting a next chapter that was never to be. For me, recently with the end of the Skywalker saga and recent trilogy the “Spaceballs 2: The Search for More Money,” as Mel Brooks' character in the first movie titled, never came to be even after the prequels. Over the decades there's only been rumors of Brooks continuing his spoof of the Star Wars franchisse but it has never materialised. He would have a lot of material to work with at this point but the likelihood of a sequel is up in the air. Brooks has said he's always been up for the idea but with many of the cast members now dead, if it were to happen it wouldn't have the feel of a sequel but more of a reboot/sequel. Though that might be fitting given how Force Awakens started. -
BPZ: Ring Psychology
Death Notorious Angel replied to Death Notorious Angel's topic in Kayfabe Shows
James: "Hello everyone and welcome to Ring Psychology. Your host here the Voice Of The Universe James SweedinFerg and today is that special interview I promised and it's none other than the current reigning and defending North American Champion, KENJI. Welcome to the show Champ as my first guest". KENJI: "Thank you, James. Pleasure to be your first guest here on Ring Psychology". James: "Pleasure is mine. You came into BPZ in 2019 with a group such as Hans Clayton, Arius, and so many more terrific talent. You knew you had to do something to stand out. What was your plan on standing out and branching away from the group and more specifically the two men I just mentioned?" KENJI: "It's something that I am still managing to this day. And that is no matter how much success you see others achieve, never tray from your vision. Never try to be the next Hans, or Arius. I signed with the company when names such as Arius, Julius and Bart were really riding high in their momentum. But, trying to emulate their paths wouldn't do anything. Thankfully, I'm here as myself, the North American Champion. If I tried to be them, then my success wouldn't really be mine". James: "Everyone has their set off points in their careers that puts them in that fourth gear that you're in. Julius betraying ROA, Hans leaving New Blood and Arius..... Well I think he was born like that, should get checked out for it. Anyway what set you off for your fourth gear performances that we've gotten from you?" KENJI: "......Emergence. It was after that initial high of competing for the championship that now sits on my shoulder. That wasn't my brightest hour. I tried to rebound at Judgment Day, but to no avail. Emergence was when I really entered the ring with nothing. And.....in order to step out again, I had to pay with what I have, something far more costly. I still think about it, you know? If I'm walking past some gated off compound in a city, my eyes flinch and recoil whenever I see the barbed wire sitting on the fences. Yes, I won that night. But Brad got his pound of flesh". James: "You say this, also knowing that the same man is after your Championship. What's your response to that?" KENJI: "Brad can say it. And as much as I dispise him to my very core, some morbid respect was garnered back at Emergence. That being said, and to anyone that wishes to contend for my championship, they need to earn the same momentum that I did. Brad...or the 'Death Notorious Angel' as he wants to be addressed now, hasn't won in quite a while, and part of me thinks that facing Julius at the Rumble isn't the best place to start if he wants the North American Title.......That and, I don't want to lose part of me again, not for him......He isn't worth it. I wasn't the same man when I left Emergence, I to be truthful, I'm not sure that I can go through that again". James: "We'll move past that and look at the present. At BPZMania V you step into the event as Champion right now standings where you face Buddy Ace. He won the Carnage Scramble that gives him this match, as he defeated four top North American contenders. Does that at all concern you?' KENJI: "One step at a time, James, one step at a time. Buddy Ace has his ticket to BPZ Mania V, and while I am a champion, so as of right now, as do I. But, I can't imagine going from Night of Legends all the way to BPZ Mania without a hurdle in the way. My main concern is overcoming that hurdle in whatever form that takes. Then, and only then, can I worry about the Hangman". James: "Hey it's cool man. No stepping on your toes. Now you talk about the hurdle, let me ask you who you'd like to face off against for your Championship before Mania? Anyone from your division has your eye?" KENJI: "Someone new and fresh. After his performance at Night of Legends, even though it was in defeat, Bob Sparks would be a name that comes to mind. Although, don't misinterpret this is me wanting to contest our in-ring quality. I don't like Bob Spark's lack of loyalty to the alliegiences he makes. He took a shortcut in order to raise his profile when he turned on Bailey. His little stunts got him into the main event of Night of Legends, above a championship match". "In light of the Undisputed Title being off the card, naturally, the responsibility should have fallen to either the Tag Team Titles, or the North American Championship. I am not proud of my match at Emergence, even though it kickstarted my recent success. The very idea that the prestige of BPZ's championships should be squandered by playing second fiddle to an 'Unsanctioned' Lights Out match irks me quite a lot. So I would like to set that straight. hwo, Legacy, Bulletproof. It doesn't make a difference, that seed of dissent is there. I want to prove that the titles we sacrifice everything for should have main evented that night, not some bloodbath". James: "So you're blaming Management for making the Lights Out Match between Bob and Bailey as the main event? And what was your reaction to the incident between Flynn and Slim with Flynn assaulting Slim requiring both men unable to be at the ppv?" KENJI: "My answer is this; We're professional wrestlers. If you want to make someone bleed so much, do it in the ring, in your match where your win can't be disputed. As appauled as I was about the Barbed Wire Massacre Match, I got my retribution all the same. Now, because of their scuffle, the Undisputed Title is in limbo. And yes, I do have a bone to pick with management in this regard. Yes, they gave me opportunities to prove myself, which I did. But, it does a diservice to both champions and challengers when they are not highlighted as the swansong. The BPZ champions represent the very best of us. Or, they're supposed to. When something else is placed above them, or when a champion torpedoes their own prestige, it tarnishes that for all of us. Even with Flynn being stripped of the title, Bulletproof effectively still had the main event, given where Bob is now. The scales aren't in balance, James. They need to be righted.....and with the Undisputed Championship relinquished, that duty might fall to me". James: "So you're planning on fixing the balance until we get a new Undisputed Champion? And at the time, you must understand why they put Bob and Bailey on. Bailey is a six time World champion in BPZ and him and Bob had their Rivalry for a while at that point." KENJI: "I understand why they were given that spot, whether I agree with that decision is a different matter. What did Bailey and Bob do in terms of matches leading up to Night of Legends? A snakes and ladders of winning and losing the Premium Championship for Bob, and Bailey appearing in the Clapspiracy Tag Tournament with Slim for some reason, only to lose to Arius and myself. Arius had one of the most impressive records of 2019, as did Smith and Bart, both runners up in their Survival Games blocks. And me, I matched Bart toe-to-toe, and not one loss to my name since my block match with Julius. I mean no disrespect to past career accolades, but they don't mean everything". "And the Undisputed Championship? I don't just mean until a new one is crowned. I mean for as long as I am North American Champion. I have gone far and beyond to elevate this championship to the best of my abilities, to make it mean more than when I first won the honour. Now, there is a fleeting, but noticable space without the Undisputed Title for me to do that". James: "Now I hate bringing this up, but you keep mentioning that one match multiple times in the last three questions. Babred Wire Massacre. It done a lot to you mental that hasn't recovered has it? I tried not asking but I can't help but see and sense it from you." KENJI: "I believe that looking forward is what's best, but only if you heed the past also. That match looms large over my time here in BPZ. How could it not? I was dragged down to a place I would never go to. By a man who rubs shoulders with those shadows. I remember it because I don't want to go back. It says with me because without it, I might not be sitting here as North American Champion. It's a painful give and take, hating it, but now I can't see myself without it". James: "You speak lowly of the man, who name I don't want to mention in case of anything. But you see the year he had last year. Don't you think that could be dangerous to poke an already angry bear again?' KENJI: "It is dangerous. But, if he wants to face The Dragon, then he meets me on my terms, not his. The locker room is full of angry bears, and even if I would want to, I am a champion now. If a rematch is in the cards, then so be it. The result will be the same". James: "Great... I look forward to this death promise I'm going to get from him. Thank you KENJI. Thank you a lot you motherf- Error message And we're back! Alright. As North American Champion you must have your set of dream matches in BPZ. Who's at the top of that list?" KENJI: "There is one. We were initially going to collide in the Survival Games tournament, but sadly, scheduling caused him to be pulled out of the brackets, and that is Isaiah Carter. he tried to recuit me to Bulletproof when he was still within their borders. While I declined his offer, the prospect of a match against him has been on my mind. Perhaps 2020 will be the time, we shall see". James: "From dream matches to another past match of yours. The Tag Team Championship match. You and Arius worked extremely well as a team. Will there be anymore pairings in the future? And what was the aftermath of the tag title match between you two like?" KENJI: "Our team will emerge again in the future. But, in the event of BPZ Mania fast approaching, we do have other commitments. It will take a whole lot more than one loss to rattle Invictus. After the match we were understanding, a loss was probably what was needed for us. To really focus where we wanted to go, and make us all the more motivated to climb the mountain again". James: "Must say as a tag team you two were incredible. So good, I think Mirage jizzed his pants before the first match. As a "young lion" of BPZ if I can say that and not get sued thank you, there are always going to be your critics and then your acclaim. Does any of that matter to you? Or are you just in it for the wrestling?" KENJI: "Always for the wrestling. But, I' be lying if I said that recognition of one's efforts isn't appreciated. Even the very best have their critics, that's just part of any business. As long as the success doesn't go to your head, or the critiques thrown around get you down, no reason why I or anyone else in this business shouldn't be doing what they do". James: "Alright I think it's about time to wrap this up so I'm going to ask one last question. We talked about good things, but I'm going to ask one bad thing. What's the biggest regret you ever made in your wrestling career in the entirety of you wrestling?" KENJI pauses for a moment, contemplating the vastness of that question KENJI: "......I can't say something from my past really, but something that might lay ahead for me......That's straying from being myself. Trying to be something that I'm not. Every day is a battle to stay on the path. If I leave that path, then that would be my biggest regret". James: "Alright Mr. KENJI you're a busy man so we're going to let you go. Thank you for being on my show." KENJI: "Thank you for having me, James". James: "I'm James SweedinFerg, and this been… nah FUCK YOU MIKE HUNT!" -

Similar to WWE | Siblings at War, I am relinquishing control of this diary solely to Hans. The brunt and most of the information as to why I'll link below but I just wanted to comment here about this diary in particular, and the plans for it in the immediate future. While Arius has plans to continue WWE | Siblings at War as a solo adventure, aside from a final post from Hans this is the end of the road for WWF vs. WCW | Clash of the Titans. I've thoroughly enjoyed working with Hans. I think when we applied ourselves we'd get through a month of booking in one sitting. As I stated above, most of the reasons can be found in the link provided as there's little point repeating myself. But, with Hans' final post you'll see some bomb ass booking and domination from me. My tussles with Hans are not over, be it in the next week or the next couple of months we and Arius are planning a diary which will come to replace the hole the loss of these diaries will cause.

Hi friends. I didn't believe I'd be making this post for a long while but after discussions with Arius I'll be stepping back from the WWE | Siblings at War diary and allowing Arius to continue it fully and however he sees fit for the foreseeable future. Before I divulge into why I'd like to stress it's nothing to do with Arius. He has been more than great to work alongside for the past seven months and has been generous with what he's contributed to the diary, from graphics to creative layouts and of course planning and booking half the thing with me. While I joke with him that he's a little slow when it comes to booking as I said prior, he has been awesome. He has a full recap of what's been happening from post-WrestleMania to SummerSlam coming out in the next week or two, though as he's on that Royal Rumble grind he'll probably post it in the next few days. This I realise is a bit of a dramatic and over-detailed way to say "I'm stepping back from this diary" but as I feel it's been one of the better diaries on the forums for the past half year and it has definitely been one of the most active and frequent, I'd just like to explain my decision making and the reasons why this change is happening. Hopefully this isn't seen as a post for the sake of being dramatic, or one of "dribble" quantities. Let's begin. As most people who I speak with know, a week and a bit ago I fell down the stairs and broke two of my ribs, also spraining my wrist. This has made things tough for me both on the Forums and outside of the virtual world. While some might see being confined to their bedroom as a positive, for me it isn't. I'm tired and drained all the time and any motivations I had have been shot out and left to bleed out. I wouldn't class it as depression. I just have no energy or no enthusiasm towards most things that I used to. Ironically an injury which has left me with more time to dedicate to the Forums has made me less active here. Admittedly I had doubts about the longevity of this diary. I think I overworked myself with the WMMA diary and starting a second multiplayer diary with Hans. Furthermore, TEW 2020 is coming out soon and, with the addition of Sheridan's WrestleMania Tales, something which has restored my liking of TEW 2016, I had a few diaries too many. The work that goes into one diary like this, never mind two, is straining. Perhaps I am a wuss but I'd argue I am not fit physically or mentally and will not be for at least another month to commit to the constant activity and posting that a diary like this needs. Prior to injuring myself having such a multitude of diaries was beginning to feel like a chore and ironically while having two broken ribs is no way a positive, in terms of Forums it has been a saving grace to some extent. It would be unfair for me to hold this diary back for a month due to my own, personal problems. Arius is more keen on it as I and I know he'll evolve his plans and ideas through this diary and still bring exciting content from now on. This is not the end of Arius' and I's partnership. We and Hans are working on something to fill the hole that me leaving WWE | Siblings at War and WCW vs. WWF | Clash of the Titans will create. Something which requires a little less work on my end. Until that diary dawns I'll be prioritising Kayfabe work as General Manager and my sole diary, Sheridan's WrestleMania Tales.

Where had he been? Where had The Tiger been after his loss at Night of Legends alongside Death Notorious Angel? It was a brutal contest between all those involved and whilst it ended with him on his back covered in marks of pain, it wasn't all bad. In fact getting brutalised by Firing Squad was an experience that would benefit him going forward. Perhaps it would be wise for The Tiger to form some alliances with others within the company because it was clear that DNA and himself were not going to be teaming up again anytime soon. A rather sinister sounding laugh could be heard as something could be heard being dragged along steel grates. It seemed that The Tiger was in a warehouse of some kind with the noise beginning to bang against some steel steps, it was clear that he had a weapon with him with the sound continuing to linger until it suddenly stopped with the only sound heard being him unlocking a door slowly switching the lights on as the tall intimidating man took a seat glancing straight into the camera placing his barbed wire bat to the side. He removed his glasses to reveal he was wearing Orange Contacts. “Do you really think that my absence was due to the embarrassment of being overwhelmed by those Gunmen? My disappearance was certainly due to the Gunmen but it wasn’t because of the fact I was disappointed to lose. In fact the reason I vanished was due to 1 key factor : Adaptation. The ability to learn from one’s downfall and use it within your future battles. We aren’t done by any means of word, our encounters with one another do not end here. Whether it is with the DNA or with another, I will find my ways to take you both down and send your carcasses to Oblivion. That was my reason to disappear but I’m afraid that cannot be said about you CJ Sellers your disappearance was due to far more chaotic circumstances. You made noises during the build up to Survivor Series about how your intentions were to save these people from their own delusions but that journey met a sudden end. I must admit having your presence back in the Gauntlet is rather exhilarating. Perhaps I know the reason for your disappearance all those months ago but I don’t think you care anymore. I’ve heard rumours this is your last chance to claim my Golden Crown and honestly that just motivates me even more so to drop you on your neck and send you on your way to pursue other endeavours. Bulletproof are as much my foe as they are your own as you attempt to shatter the glass box at its source: Jeremiah Flynn.” The leather clad man revealed a pistol as the camera panned towards it,loading it’s barrel with one bullet and shooting to the side, shattering a glass window out of the conference room. It is made apparent that he only shot a solitude bullet to drive his point home that he believed it would be impossible to claim victory in both contests at the BPZ Royal Rumble event. “ It seems you have to choose CJ, which one of us is more important for you to decimate? Is it more important to you that you claim what was stolen thanks to a mystery assailant taking you out preventing you and I from having this confrontation much sooner? Or would you rather focus on the man whom has finally made you his main target? Either way I don’t see you achieving both because I doubt you’ll have the stamina left after being mauled by multiple numbers. Speaking of numbers,one man’s time finally reached its climax as the Riddler defeated a man even more insane than Amai because the man really does not know who he is. That man has an identity crisis every single day of his existence that even an intelligent and calculating specimen such as myself is struggling to keep up. Is he Arrow Thunderman? Arrow Rhodes? Arrow Gargano? Brrow? Now he claims to be Arrow Orton but either you dealt with him in quite convincing fashion which has given me reason to pay attention to your antics. I guess we’ll never know who he truly is,Riddles are your thing anyways. Do you really think that because you beat someone with even less sanity than the first challenger that I broke after he failed to reach my level? However that being said you could easily surprise me. I mean look at James Knight, he most certainly surprised me being able to at least make things entertaining but they all fall the same as they realize that in order to beat me, you cannot be a normal man. Your Riddles are a part of the charm,don’t worry I won’t be bringing in Batman to deal with you. If I want your body to break into pieces, I’d do it myself because I have confidence in my own abilities unlike that deluded piece of shit Arrow Orton and it honestly showed when you buried him under his own insecurities. You really want to know what someone requires to have a slither of a chance of beating me for my NXT Championship at the Royal Rumble? You’ll find out when I forge my path of chaos with the blood of every single deluded bastard who thought that they were close to figuring it all out before the circumstances they were in changed before their very eyes. Never will you become the Predator because your reality is Prey”

We're under one week now until the Royal Rumble, the wrestling equivalent of Christmas and i'm sure like a lot of fans i'm looking back on the past Royal Rumble events and matches. The Royal Rumble has a long history within the company from something that started as a gimmick used for a house show that did terribly up until today where it is arguably the second biggest PPV of the companies year and garners the excitement of lapsed fans, casual fans and hardcore fans alike. The match type is simply explained and exciting to see who survives and comes in next. It's funny to think that the first match had less than 2,000 people showing up for it and they actually gave away the winner during intermission. They said that the winner would get a title shot against Hogan the next time they were in town and when hyping up the next card, they announced Hogan vs. One Man Gang for the championship...and guess who won? One of my favourite aspects of the Royal Rumble is that in the space of the time in the ring you can continue a storyline, create some simple storytelling within the match or spark something new. One great example of this for myself is Bob Backlund lasting over an hour in the 1993 Royal Rumble Match. He was from an age of Bruno Sammartino, the last long reigning champion before Hulk Hogan and could be consider one of the best as far as accolade holding the championship if you made a list. But all of that took place in the late 70’s and early 80’s, definitely not 1993. So here we are in a new decade and a new generation era. He had completely missed the Rock 'n' Wrestling Connection Era and because of the companies national expansion the fans mostly didn't remember who he was or what he meant for the company. You have the time lost Bob Backlund who was attempting a comeback for the WWF entered the Royal Rumble second, with Ric Flair in first. The biggest surprise takes place here, if i was watching this match live my money is on Ric Flair but he fizzled out after about 15 minutes. Bob Backlund though proved resistant and took the abuse from all sides, managing to last over one hour in the match which at the time was unheard of. This was the record before Chris Beniot beat it (and of course was beaten again) but it was a decade long record. He defied all the odds by never being eliminated despite the competition often being bigger, stronger, and much younger. Backlund was a part of the final three before finally being eliminated by the eventual winner, Yokozuna. Watching back the Bob Backlund story is one of my favourite returns and in this Royal Rumble match it was about showing he was going to fit into this era and pro himself again. So thinking back on the years of Royal Rumble matches, what are some of your favourite examples of storytelling inside of the match itself?

Welcome to tonight’s Carnage, and we are one week away from the massive Royal Rumble Show, featuring the titular match. However another big story from last week was that Joshua Scott could be forced into retirement if he fails to win any of his next 3 matches. And his first match comes against the man who has been impersonating him for months, Pablo, who is accompanied to the ring by Gary Green. Gary has promised to remain neutral in this entire thing, wanting Pablo to win but not wanting Josh to retire Now both stand in the ring, awaiting the entrance of Joshua Scott The crowd erupt as the music of Joshua Scott, the iconic “Seven Nations Army” hits. Josh hasn’t used this song since July 2018 when he suffered heartbreaking defeat to Julius in the KOTR tournament, but it was symbolic of him in the past, to the point where The White Stripes performed for him at Mania Josh gets into the ring and stares down with Pablo. Pablos record is 1-1, he beat Arrow in 23 seconds but lost to Isaiah Carter in 37 seconds. Basically, he doesn’t wrestle long matches. It should be interesting to see how Josh deals with this knowledge in this interesting match Pablo walks towards Josh SUPERKICK. JOSH COVERS PABLO, BUT PABLO KICKS OUT BEFORE 1 Josh looks devastated, wondering what it will take to put away this man mountain. Josh now goes to the corner, looking for his finishing move, the Seven Nations Army, the Spear, whatever you want to call it. Josh charges at Pablo, who moves out of the way AND JOSH HITS THE REF. Josh checks on the ref and turns back to Pablo, who nails him with a massive Side Slam and then a Great Scott And it was that exact same Great Scott that got Pablo his win over Arrow but obviously there is no referee when Pablo covers. Pablo wastes no time in rolling out of the ring and grabbing a steel chair. As he rolls into the ring, Gary Green is in the ring, checking on the referee. Gary holds Pablo back and calls for a microphone from ringside Gary: As we have no referee, and I am a neutral man in this match, I SHALL REFEREE THIS MATCH Pablo holds the chair still, and Josh asks Gary to take the chair off Pablo, or DQ him. However Gary doesn’t respond, and his smirk turns into a sick smile as he turns to Josh GARY GREEN JUST RAN AND LOW BLOWED HIS BEST FRIEND. The crowd are silenced as Josh holds his groin in pain, before turning to Pablo, who nails him with a chair shot Pablo covers the broken body of Josh and Gary counts the 3 count. The crowd boo as Gary raises Pablos hand, and the two swiftly leave the ring. Pablo and Gary celebrate on the apron, as Josh looks on devastated. That is 1 loss, Josh must now win one of his next 2 matches or else his career is over. Tonight leaves us with many questions. Why did Gary betray Josh? What is next for Josh? And will he be retired?

So here we are and what a wild ride this new stable has been on RAW with already championships around their waist. I really liked the way they recruited Buddy Murphy. The man in his despair and vulnerability after facing the devil, turned to the Messiah for guidance and wisdom. Alsos opens up the possibility of Crossfit Jesus vs The Dutch Devil in the future with Murphy being tied into this story. I'm really optimistic for what this stable will do for everyone involved. The legacy of Seth Rollins is intact but It's funny how the same company that loves to rely on nostalgia acts so much does so little to actually create future nostalgia moments. The highlight of the early reunion shows was watching stables like NWO and DX share a ring for the first time in many years. The Shield is the only one WWE has bothered to build up like that. This new group could be another good one where a multi-time Universal Champion, multi-time tag champions, and a young guy that ends up feuding with them at some point in the future before going on to bigger things. Once AOP actually win the champions and not Seth Rollins. But with all that out of the way now, we need a name to christen this stable. What has come to mind to being a good name for the stable in your mind? My first thought is to keep it simple and feed into the leader's new gimmick. So a name like 'Salvation' , ', 'The Disciples' or 'The Second Coming'. It’s the name of Seth’s current theme song and it fits in well with his new “Monday Night Messiah” gimmick. I like it way more than “The Architects of Pain” that I’ve been hearing around lately

Mia Yim vs Kay Lee Ray has been announced for the Worlds Collide Pre-Show I'm glad Kay Lee Ray is on the show but this match doesn't exactly excite me. In my opinion It should've been Kay Lee Ray vs. Rhea Ripley, as the NXT UK Women's champion should not be on the pre-show when you have only one other women's match on the card. Though at the same time i imagine all the matches they have announced are going to need a good portion of time so they're probably fighting backstage over what goes where. I'm looking forward to it, but this doesn't move the needle for me either way. Kay Lee Ray did cost Mia Yim the ladder match for the Takeover War Games advantage so at that is some nice continuity.

At the recent Schadengraps show Chris Brookes faced defeated Lykos Gym’s Kid Lykos Jr. (Joe Nelson) with the manjigatame. After the match Chris Brookes, who is going away to spend a year in Japan with DDT and Kid Lykos who is undoutably retired at this point joined together in the ring to give their blessing for Joe Nelson to continue his career as Kid Lykos and has been given their blessing and endorsement to carry on the CCK name. Hopefully one day down the road Chris Brookes can team with the new Lykos. He consistently helps make others look like stars and he never overshadowed his CCK partners, instead helping elevate them. Kid Lykos was the perfect example of this. Whereas at first glance they may not have looked like they belonged together, Lykos and Brookes were a well-oiled machine inside the ring, with great double team moves. It is a shame his career had to end due to his shoulder injury. Independent Wrestling really is an unforgiving beast at times. What are your thoughts of the names being inherited and living on?

Drew Gulak Files Trademark For Former Stable 'Catch Point'
Arius replied to Arius's topic in Independent Wrestling
Outside of professional wrestling Catch Point is a pretty badass name so it has some flexibility for us in his future endeavours whenever that day comes. It is smart of Gulak to use whatever assets he can to protect himself in the future, especially in an age where companies are going through their history and catalogues to see what they can rope down under a trademark. (Example: Recent PPV name race between WWE and AEW) I don’t know if WWE would ever let him do it, but if Gulak actually put together a catch point faction with dudes like Gable and Cesaro (and god willing, Riddle) on Smackdown, that would own. With the working relationship with between WWE and Evolve though i could see them using that history to possible have a Catch Point stable go between Evolve and NXT in the future. Once the need for another stable rises. -
Wrestling Matches That Surprisingly Happened
Arius replied to Arius's topic in Independent Wrestling
Texas Red (The Undertaker) vs Bruiser Brody After watching the Bruiser Brody episode of Dark Side Of The Ring i came across this match on Youtube. This would be one of the earliest matches featuring The Underaker and to think the careers of these two actually overlapped is amazing. Brody as time goes on felt like a product of a generation before his own but to think if he had been alive we probably would've seen him involved somewhere during the Monday Night Wars (Even if it was ECW) is a little unnerving. I remember Undertaker talking in depth about this match with Steve Austin on his podcast and if you listen to that while watching the match you can tell how vivid his memory is of that night. -

Raw Rivalries Aleister Black vs Andrade After a big win against Buddy Murphy at the Royal Rumble, Aleister Black has found a new challenge in Andrade. Both of these men remember their NXT War, but now that they are both in the big leagues, the drive for war is even bigger. Come Elimination Chamber these two will do battle, for the drive to win. Over these past few weeks, each competitor would confront eachother, trying to play mind games. But the question is, has it worked? Who will come out on top? AJ Styles(C) vs Cedric Alexander- United States Championship This has been a great feud thus far, these two have a fond memory of eachother, fighting last fall with AJ Styles always coming out on top. Cedric Alexander now wants to change that with a Championship victory. These two have gone all out for this one, trading blows every week. Who will come out on top? AJ Styles has been a great champion thus far, but you have to ask what keeps him going? Is it the title or his way of winning? With The Club banned from ringside, how will AJ Styles perform? We will have to wait and see. Becky Lynch(C) vs Ember Moon- Raw Womens Championship Almost a year long reign Becky Lynch has had. And with Ember Moon returning quite recently, this should be a fun bout. Ember Moon is usually one who respects her peers, but for this one she has not been the friendly kind. All she wants is that Raw Women's Championship around her shoulder finally, but Becky Lynch doesnt want to give that up. So at Elimination Chamber these two will do battle for one prize, but only one competitor will come out on top. Who will that be? Both Women's test of strength wil be evident, who wants it more, those are the questions we must find out. Brock Lesnar(C) vs Randy Orton- WWE Championship What a war this is going to be, both men as dangerous as the other. Fighting for one thing, a chance at glory on top of the mountain.The last time these two fought was at Summerslam 2016, where Randy Orton was unable to compete from the pounding Brock Lesnar gave to him, will this be his same fate? Randy Orton wants to rewrite his mistakes, and this is his chance to do so and to retrieve another World Championship. At Elimination Chamber this bout will take place, but who will come out on top? ------------------------
