Toxxic

HB pwns j00.

Look guys, just because Toxx wore eyeliner and nail varnish doesn't mean you can give him a girly name. And Spike, you're damn right to run! Otherwise Sean will do what he did last time you pissed him off, which was... ...disappear

Have a Unique Birthday! (we so need SWF Birthday cards with Zyon on the front telling people to have a Unique Birthday, or Spike telling them that their birthday = ratings and so on...)

Only for people who know him. Otherwise it's like a rookie calling Ric Flair 'Naitch'. Tut tut tut...

I like this. A lot. I wasn't aware that Sean knew Sarah though. Or that Sarah knew Toxxic well enough to refer to him as 'Toxx' *glares unconvincingly*

J3 you are evil. As for our latest arrival, it looks like Kibs and it smells like Kibs...

Sssshhhh.... Be vewy vewy quiet... ...I'm hunting Maoris!

Oh, and Akira? It's 'imperative'.

Bah. Of course not. Why, if someone kicked out that that it would make them... ...Notorious?

I'd like to point out that Muzz is the best tag team partner I've ever had, as on the two or three occasions we teamed he a) didn't suck, b) always wrote and c) didn't get blocked from the board for three months for no apparent reason. You go, Muzz.

But how can you leave it unless we describe the move EXACTLY, in a way that there can be no POSSIBLE misinterpretation of it!? Dammit Spike, you're just not taking this fictional wrestling stuff seriously enough!!

Silent was a name used by Nathaniel Kibagami, who used the Demonstar Driver. And he used it because way back when, his neck was broken by it when it was used by Edwin MacPhisto under the name James Canterbury, and Silent/Nathaniel pursued him to the SWF years later... ...ah fuck it. Go and do searches on the boards and read Genesis III and IV.

I suppose the deal with old-school Silent was his stats specifically stated that he WOULD kick out of your finisher ("Your finisher no-sold. Yes, your finisher. It'll take more than a sheer-drop whatever to put Silent down"). Now, I'm not saying that was a good thing, but at least it was there in the open.

Well, I never wrote Toxxic as kicking out of a finisher. He was Vitality 4, and that would just be stupid; his strength lay in avoiding people's moves, not taking them and then kicking out. TORU I could have got away with it, but I'd have saved it for a big match. As it was I never wrote for that big match (the Cold Front Classic against J3 is the only one that comes to mind as being that big, and for that I gave him permission -in fact suggested- that he kick out of the Shooting Star Press). Amy isn't really a kick-out type person either I wouldn't say. In fact, I don't remember anyone kicking out of any of Toxxic's finishers unless I wrote them to do so. Granted, Toxx didn't lose much anyway, but in general it seemed that you could write someone else to kick out of your finisher, but you wouldn't kick out of someone else's. In fact I remember that in the World Title match that I lost to Johnny, I threw a bit of a hissy fit because he'd made Toxxic kick out of the MI Slam when my stats specifically stated that he would NOT kick out of ANY finisher (WC came to Johnny's rescue by pointing out that the MI Slam is a pussy move, which amused me no end). So, yeah. Maybe it's not practiced anymore. However, I at least would still be real hesistant about kicking out of a finisher unless you had at least Vitality 6 anyway, or if it's a real weak move (you can't actually convince me that a Lionsault is a finisher). It's certainly not worth doing for a free TV show, I'd say. Not unless you're like old-school Silent with Vitality 10 and maxed out on painkillers, or something.

Maybe Dace was closer on the money when he described it as a sheer-drop double-underhook sit-out powerbomb. As in, there's no scissoring of the head to protect you from the mat, you're just driven straight down into it.

Haffy? Now that's going too far.

If Drea guests or hosts, I'm so downloading this. Normally I don't bother due to dial-up = shit.

Hmm, an active LDP return? Not just a one night only? Well, it'd get him off the commentary team, which as far as I'm concerned is a good thing as it might mean we get CYCLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE COMET back! Nice promo.

I thought you were JTTF?

The Demonstar is sit-out. So, it's like the setup for a TD '91, but you sit out. I know it's two different moves, but the TD '91 is something I thought Blank might be familiar with, so it'd be better to work from there. I'm telling you, I had this discussion with Kibs when we feuded. It's SIT-OUT.

Right. Coyote and IL, Bruce and Amy are now called 'Drunk & Disorderly', and we come out to 'Too Drunk To Fuck' by the Dead Kennedys. Beyond that it's the same as usual - Bruce will jaw with the fans, Amy has her beer and is a little more crowd-friendly. Check my stats post for a few double-team moves etc.

A couple of things that stood out for me: a) Unless it was a big, big match like a title match or something like that, I'd always ask before I kicked out of an opponent's finisher. As it is Amy's no main-eventer and the effect of things is a bit less definite, but I'd say it's something to bear in mind. b) Kevin went from just barely kicking out of the Vodka Kick to staving her face in with an elbow smash, then posing cockily before hitting the Coyote Takedown. It just didn't seem to me like you sold the move at all after the pin. c) Amy really wouldn't play to the crowd in the 'I'm only in my bra' respect. I'm trying as hard as I can to make her the opposite of most female wrestlers (WWE ones at least), in that yes she has breasts, but she doesn't use what sexuality she has. She turns up, she kicks ass, she leaves. Look at her tits and she'll hit you. Granted I haven't stated that though, so I may go and alter the stats profile a little. I'm not going to comment on the rest of the match because given that I wrote my match in the way I wanted, I'm probably likely to think that it unfolded better than yours, simply because everything happened how I wanted it to. Those are a couple of main points I thought of though.

Uh-uh. It's sit-out, like the J-Driller. So, Blank, a sit-out sheer-drop Tiger Driver '91, if that helps you any.

I like the fact that we've sorted our issues out, Bruce.
