Lockdown Comments.

[Guest Kibagami]

Fantastic main event from Mak. I stalled out around 3500 words and sent it in so I could say I showed, but I'm not altogether sure I would've won if I'd gone to the limit. I really, really like the SWF Replays -- they're a nice touch, and the finish leaves room for a rematch down the road. Excellent work.

 

In other news, Ash is out of his god-damn mind, and I haven't read the rest of the show. More comments when I do, of course.

I was owned. DAMN YOU DANTE CRANE! WHOEVER YOU AAAAAAAARE~! *dramatic fadeout*

 

Ah well. Win some, lose some, and my loss record is bigger than my win record. No real comments here, except I am VERY impressed with the amount of promoage in the show, and I'm watching Beezel like a hawk....I like him (Y)

[Guest Muzz]

*Sigh* Again I apoligise. I had like 2000 words before I literally died and couldn't do anymore. I was also the one who called the opening promo, and was dissapointed when I couldn't do it.

 

I'll read the show and comment later, when I feel a little better.

[Guest Beezel]

No offense, Muzz, but if you had followed through with your promo, we all might have gotten a large talking-to from Friend King.

 

Lots of storyline here, making up for the lack of same earlier. I'm happy with the heat CIA got me into with Atlas going into the PPV, and the entire series was brilliant.

 

My own promo, I'd like to thank Kibagami for allowing me to use him to mess with all of your minds even more.

 

Craven, you have balls. Maybe not brains, but balls. I liked the style of the promo even if I'm a little wary on the substance.

 

LONG show there folks, let's see if the next one will be even better!

[Guest Goodear]

Damn it! The one time I promo and it gets overshadowed by about twenty BILLION other ones... crap. Granted I'm not a great promo guy since I usually get bored writing it after about a page, but I think this one went well. Ah, it happens...

[Guest The Superstar]

Damn!

 

Congratulations to the Trinity, that's why they're the tag champions. Although, as always, I'm curious how close it was (...if it even was)

 

Ejiro, your new entrance KICKS ASS.

 

Mak, fantastic match.

 

A lot of promos, as mentioned, but it's all good. Even though the Show-transformation ones were a 5 minute rush job~

 

Crow/Janus continues to bring the awesome~

“You see fans, in just two weeks of my instruction,” continues Fasaki, “I have taken the incredibly skilled Bahamas Bomber and made him into a devastating force of nature. A human hurricane if I could coin a marketable moniker that would be entirely profitable in T-shirt form. ... "

 

I love this angle, and I love Fasaki's character. I salute you, Mr. Good Ear.

 

I was also quite impressed with King's promo, doing away entirely with the Japanese bosses. Yay for that! Boo at not being able to go over his head as a storyline device for the lazy!

 

The matches were, on the whole, high-quality. I'm not sure I like Dante Crane competing, but it was used well, imho.

There were quite a few running storylines through out this show, so I'll go over them, and comment briefly on the matches. Doing it in detail is way too much of a job. So we start with the Michael Craven running storyline. It was pretty ballsy, and you definitely set it up well. I would have had Ejiro make a comment about you degrading the US title he won off you though. Don't forget to put over others characters, while building yourself up. Just one snide comment at Craven, while he was leaving, or Ejiro mocking Craven in sarcasm, would have had him say true to his character. Ejiro is brash and uncaring and isn't the type to just stand there in silence, during any situation. Either way, it was well written and executed.

 

Flesher/Frost is next in my list. It's build is pretty straight forward, towards what could be an awesome match. This next show will be the hard sell, so, I expect to see something big. 'Mind games' are a commonplace theme in this fed, but I especially liked the Best of Frost DVD thing. That's a very inventive way to play up your signature match. If Frost/Flesher is a window pain match... I'll definitely become more interested than I am already.

 

Like Flesher, I am completely behind the Wildchild/Ejiro dynamic. It's similar to the JL feud, but I'm sure you guys will introduce some new and different aspects to make it better overall.

 

CIA and Beezel stalk Atlas, was another nice running theme. Apparently, CIA is building a STABLE foundation, to quote him and the comedy of all the promos were wonderful. Plus, it leads into a grand confrontation with the M7, and the introduction of JD questioning the need of friends was something that has been building for a long while.

 

Quiz and Shows debut was good although, you need to explain exactly why Show joined Quiz. I knew the backstory behind it ahead of time, but I couldn't completely get that from your middle promo. Maybe having Quiz continually brain wash Show with game show network, for the next few shows will help people understand.

 

And finally, King ends a storyline that I really don't know all that much about, while becoming even more powerful and pompus. It worked for me. Anyways, those are all the storylines and if you want match comments, then you'll have to comment yourself.
