Toxxic

As long as Tom's happy with you hogging his credit (if that's indeed what you're doing) then I'd say it's all fine. Certainly, as a writer I never cared who on CC was doing what, as long as what they were doing made sense. Raynor pwns j00, btw.

The other thing is that Karma just happens. That's why it's karma. It shouldn't need someone going around 'balancing' it, it balances itself in the end anyway. Now, if these guys were full-blown heels with an aggressive pacifist streak ("If you get in the ring with me then it's out of my hands...") and were going around 'balancing' things however they wished, that's a gimmick i could get behind.

This is very well-written Rando, but I'm still struggling with the notion of two Hindus as wrestlers. So they're pacifists, they won't attack unless attacked first. I know the back history says that's all they've ever done, but surely there's work for two seven-foot blokes on a construction site or something? I just really don't consider this a likely scenario.

Duran should come back on a three-show rotation like Danny. Not too much work, but enough to do stuff. Come on, we have a decent crop of writers right now but not all that many. Everybody's welcome.

Now I'm retired, can I be Muzz? He so cool.

Drea, if you'd got anything else it just wouldn't be right.

TREE BRANCH SWING~! Card has shown me a very short clip of a Ken The Box match. It was a mixture of awesome and dreadful, and I'm not sure in what quantities. EDITED TO ADD: Hey Landon, you unoriginal fucker, I'M CIMA. And you know what you are? Just a cheap imitation of me... [/2004]

DAMNIT. I'm one week short of tying ELM for most days with the World Title. ...Christ, that's a scary thought.

Having been taught on this matter by Chris Card, I can say with some authority that the CAPITALISED names are disrespectful of Japanese tradition. It's like saying 'look, I'm going to have my name always written in decadent Western script, fuck tradition!' An exception to this is KENTA, who has his name capitalised out of respect for Kenta Kobashi, whom he is in the same company as. Or so I'm told.

Better recognise, bitches.

Batista as a face works very well for me. He's got a great look and is comfortable (not to mention amusing) on the mic, so he's easy to connect to. The other important point is that he can beat the SHIT out of heels. For once, the WWE has succeeded in creating a monster face who can be relaxed and calm most of the time, but not go down the 'goofy happy face-Big Show' route. Batista comes across as a nice guy... but you don't want to piss him off. He works well as a monster face crushing heel challengers. I have to say, if they ever find someone with the charisma of Batista and the ring skills of Lesnar they're gonna spawn a superstar. As for Cena, I prefer him chasing because that way there's a chance he won't get the damn thing, and should he get injured they'd just take him off the show rather than keep him on in a protected role like they normally do with a hurt champion.

Ladies and gentlemen, this announcement was brought to you by Chris Card. We now resume normal services.

The Waltons would have been enough to make Toxxic turn heel again.

This is the best promo slagging me off EVER. Also encapsulates Toxxic's character pretty well. Oh, and like I put in my final promo, feel free to have Flesher 'officially' turn over the result of the match on Smarkdown for a little extra heel flavour.

I don't find Jillian attractive either, just for the record. Both pictures are not someone I'd be interested in.

Not even particularly dark, I don't think. Just a decent promo about someone coming to terms with the fact that they're now famous, but also not being satisfied in themselves. It's interesting.

The WWE have come to Nottingham several times. I've never been once, because I know that I'll never see anything INTERESTING. When they start doing title changes abroad or actually advance a fucking storyline or something, THEN I'd go. That being said, if they relocated a brand here they'd HAVE to do that. Still can't see it working though.

This promo was FUCKING AWESOME. It did verge on being up itself at points I admit, but stayed on the right side of it with some brilliant turns of phrase (and Chuck Norris). Only the second insight into the mind of Zyon - if this guy starts promoing in the ring he could be well on the way to greatness. "Victory through defeat... pretty sweet."

I'd make sure I was never in that unfortunate situation, for starters.

And definitely NOT CIA, despite being Canadian and having a finisher with the same name. Actually, a finisher of the same name probably confirms that, but hey.

See? Knew he wasn't a n00b. Talking about Thugg wrecking shit and that. Maybe he IS Thugg...

Sly reeks of awesomeness and I can feel the swankness.

The Crimson Skull?

Post your new stats, Sly. PLEASE.

Ahhh, of course Mags headlined two... but Johnny's going to be the first to headline two in singles matches, right? And as defending champion, too. It is SO tempting to not leave, just to see if I could take the title off him again at Genesis (no offence Johnny, it'd just be funny is all) but to be honest, the Canadian Deathmatch has sucked all the energy for writing Toxxic out of me for some time, I feel. I will read the show and comment on other's matches, I promise. Right now though I'm enjoying the fact that I don't have to pay attention to the fed if I don't want to (I do want to of course, but you get what I mean). And I apologise for my match being so monster, and i know what Landon means about all the kickouts. I wanted to win my last match, especially since it's in Britain, but I wouldn't be doing Pretzler any favours by beating him convincingly. So I had Toxxic FINALLY break character and cheat, just once, in order to do it... but to get to that stage Pretz had to kick out of pretty much everything else in order to make Toxxic that desperate. I suppose the point is that if Toxxic had stayed as Toxxic, not cheating, then Pretzler would have won. He finally gave up on his own code of honour and, as a result, left the fed behind him.
