Far too lazy to look for it, but one of my favourite matches from times long by, back when I was still somewhat n00bish to the whole thing, was my SJL match against Ejiro for the Euro... ahem... Ejiropean title. Ejiro was such awesomeness at the time compared to me, and I -just- managed to trounce him. It still makes me proud, even if it really sucks by now. Backstory: Janus was a n00b and a face in the SJL, and having worked his way up the ladder, got a contendership for the European title. Ejiro Fasaki, part of the JL M7 at this point, had made it the Ejiropean title. Janus won the contendership match, and in an attempt to weaken the champ they set up a Fisherman's Wharf Brawl which Janus also came out on top of before finally beating the dominant Ejiropean Champion in the title match. Shortly after this Ejiro planted the seeds for a heel turn and I started killing people =D

*insert cheap shot about yours and Johnny's reactions to losing the tag titles to me and Aecas way back when* *fades back into retirement*

Ebony's continued presence after my retirement will never cease to amuse me. *considers for the billionth time using her as an active wrestler*

You tag-teamed with a furry to do it and practically had my blessing, and fun was had by all!

*cues Aecas' original intro* "Sanity is just a weird form of madness..."

"We took our medication. And we BOTH think you're an asshole." *fades out*

*fondly reminsices of those JL letters to Tom Flesher* I M FOOG.

*slides over to the retirees list*

*spontaneously reminds Judge that he should have done that action toy flashback promo, dammit*

Good thing you didn't start hurling fireballs. Or I could call you a flamer. =D

He'd say that stamina comes with time... among other things that would come... in time. *cuts the joke off right there*

You make me feel old and slow. Any particular reason the stats page wanted everything spaced out like this? I had to <br> my stats and moves so it didn't look spread out. It kept thinking everything was on one line.

.... Actually I'm mostly just for the use of Ebony. And with Annie no less. Heehee. Almost makes me want to do another Ebony promo....

.... \m/ BAR PROMO \m/

*you knew it was coming* *GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORES Toxxic* *exits again*

*points at Aecas* Is it really?

Yeah, but this one was the first, so you shut your piehole There's only three of them. Four if you count my furry self.

I'm at work for the dole and bored, and retired, but no one said I can't poke my nose in, right? First up, mega-props for Tom for having the sig I saw on a random browse of Lords Of Pain and luring me over here in the first place way back when. (Y) Why did you choose that name for your character? The name of Janus was pretty much a name I thought sounded pretty cool for a wrestler, given I'd pretty much just yanked it from a certain character in Chrono Trigger. The whole "Anti Heel Machine" and "Hell Machine" monikers were basically me looking for a nickname for him, and pretty much ending up sounding like I ripped off Kane When I worked the personality split, I pretty much threw a bastardised version of my real name around Janus. Why do they look the way they do? I'm a five foot five, 104lb guy. That's 166cm, 50kg for those of us using the metric system. And I always had a thing for the big guys, so of course Janus ended up being a seven foot two, 360lb behemoth. I mostly wanted him to be bigger than the biggest of the WWE without looking weighty. The red/green eyes were basically a way of showing mood and personality, and I was always a fan of the white hair - probably a carryover from days of anime. I went with pretty standard Big Guy garb of the pants and boots and gloves, and the trenchcoat and shirt came later as accessories. The scars on his chest had a story behind them when I first made him, but they took on such a sinister and better meaning when I ran a certain storyline. Why is their character the way it is, and is this different from how you originally envisaged them? When I first designed Janus, he was the bastard heel of doom way back when in the RP feds. I daresay I used the Last Ride style powerbomb before the Undertaker (for those of you remembering Janus' "Dark Bomb" finisher). There was no real story behind him, but when I brought him into the SWF, I realised I'd need to do something. Way back in the RP feds, he joined a group that looked much like the Ministry, and I worked off that to bring up the whole personality split idea. I'd originally planned to work it where he'd be a face, but snap into being a heel at random intervals in some matches, and always be a gentle and apologetic giant to those he hurt unduly. Of course, he didn't quite turn out that way, as he prettty much swings between violent psychopath and quiet giant at random. Especially, when the whole storyline with Kibagami started up, it gave me an awesome way to modify that RP history into something nasty. If there was one thing you would want your character remembered for, what would it be? Being the mentally unstable big bastard that he is, really. As well as in-character things like beating Toxxic twice, ending WC's Hardcore Gamers streak, and dethroning W&D with Aecas. He'll be remembered for being a big bastard played by a tiny bastard though.

.... (Y)

Ebony and her crossover appeal strike again! I have nothing interesting to add.

*the end*

*crackles knuckles* Because I can, you silly bean of a Brit! *watches Superted say his secret magic word and come soaring in to save the day along with the Spotty Man, before Thomas the Tank Engine churns on by with his pals to finish the job*

*watches the Trap Door hack them back up instead, and while Toxx is distracted, he's dumped into the Reject Bin by the Raggy Dolls*
