Guest Prof_Plague Report post Posted August 23, 2004 I recently started a new game of EWR featuring the WWE. I have played as backyard promotions and national companies, but never a consistent game as the promoter of the WWE. ...Until now. Ensuring only top athletics, a large chunk of the roster has been released. In fact, even some of the WWE's top superstars were released, due to the new Head Promoter, Prof. Plague being unsatisfied with the current talent. Note: This journal was not my sole idea, I merely stole the idea primarily from TheManErnieRowe - and give credit to him. His thought and views will not be reflected within this game, but rather view his. http://forums.thesmartmarks.com/index.php?showtopic=50939 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Prof_Plague Report post Posted August 23, 2004 Monday, August 2, 2004: Breaking News: Wrestling promoter Professor Q.C. Plague has taken over World Wrestling Entertainment! In this shocking press conference requested by Vince McMahon, Plague has now been given full-authority over the current WWE roster. Plague stated, "I will work from behind the scenes. The respected General Managers will address any of my thoughts on any given night of a show. For now, we are in a new era." Afterwards Plague also stated a new zero tolerance policy, in which any one under contract may leave the company for any reason. But he also stated that he will not, "Go mad with power. This is a company based on entertainment; but more importantly, a company about fine wrestling. Some wrestler may be asked to leave now that I am now running the company, and some wrestlers just may leave on their own accord. But I will ensure the continued excellence of World Wrestling Entertainment." Plague attended Yale where he received a Bachelor's degree in Political Science and Philosophy; received a Master's degree in Law at Stanford, and received a Doctorate in Business, specializing in Sports Management at Harvard. -Source: WWE.com Raw The Raw entrance begins and the pyrotechnics go off. Jim Ross and Jerry "The King" Lawler greet the fans to the show. Ross: Welcome folks! I'm Jim Ross with Jerry "The King" Lawler.

Back when I wrestled in the South, Plague was only a name you heard of, but never actually met. He's the man who one day took over NWA North-Eastern territory in the early 80s and turned it into a family-wholesome show like the 1960s! The guy made a mint for NWA, and then left once Ted Turner buy-out the company. Now look what happened to it! ANd Plague is the type of guy who was walking down the street, saw Harley Race - and the Race gave him a dirty look, and before you knew it, the medics had to scrape Race off the cement! This guy is just plain amazing, Ross! Ross: As for now, Vince is in the ring with a very important announcement! Vince McMahon is in the ring: Excuse me, ladies and gentlemen, tonight is the first night of many changes within the company. Tonight, I have been given a list of wrestler who have been asked to leave the WWE for whatever reasons. We all must understand that this is a time of change. And of good change. As Prof. Plague created change within the company, we all must learn to tighten our belts. When he says jump, we will say: How high, Prof. Plague? But, before we continue here tonight, I have to introduce you to a new talent sought-out by Prof. Plague. :AJ Styles music plays and remains on the sound stage.: As for now, we all must understand that these next few weeks will be rough at first, but will be better in the long-run.

The backstage will be sure anarchy! Lawler: And AJ Styles! How did Plague get AJ Styles?! Styles has refused to sign contract with the WWE for a long time now! But Plague got him! McMahon: Also tonight, I have been given this list which I must read. This will be posted on the Titantron as I go. The following wrestlers have been asked to leave the company.

Plague has taken over this company by storm! Nothing is going to be left untouched by the end of the month! Ross: I know. I can only think that Prof. Plague is going to continue to clean this company up! I'm getting work that new Raw Manager Mikey Whipwreck is backstage and has an announcement to make. Mikey Whipwreck is backstage: You know fans, I've been thinking. This past Thursday Eddie Guerrero and Ultimo Dragon had a little match for the U.S. title. In fact, Eddie enjoyed the match so much that he continued to stomp away on Ultimo Dragon afterwards. So, if you enjoyed it that much Eddie, you can Ultimo Dragon can do it again, tonight! And, for your U.S. title, no less. Oh, and for the heck of it. My favorite wrestler Triple H is also going to have a match tonight. In fact, you're going to start the show tonight by defending the Heavy-Weight title to Val Venis. You know, I just want to ensure that we have enough time for the match. Lawler: Really? Val Venis gets a Heavy-Weight title shot? Just like that? Ross: King, this isn't like before. Plague said there'd be change, and to instill change, he hired that man, Mikey Whipwreck.

And right now, you're about to get Plagued! Triple H, you say that you are "The Game", to make sure you are ontop of you "Game", you will have a second match tonight thanks to executive decision.

And Whipwreck is in charge...even making more decisions than McMahon! I don't believe this! Cole: In fact Mikey Whipwreck is backstage and has something to say. Mikey Whipwreck is backstage: You know, if there's anything I learned about being a wrestler, is that you can be very under-rated.

That's just sick, Tazz! He doesn't deserve a title shot if he does stuff like that! Tazz: Cole, sometimes a man just needs to find a way to get noticed around here! And Hardy knows here it's at - and Mysterio has what he wants! This is going to be fun, Cole! Cole: Yeah, but how will Mysterio re-act once he comes-to? You think he'll reply to Hardy with a match just because Hardy says so? ...Yeah right, Tazz! Bubba Ray Dudley and Val Venis vs. Hardy and O'Haire.

Guest Prof_Plague Report post Posted August 30, 2004 Yeah, and if I remember correctly, the stats weren't where they should've been.

Plague is going to make everything perfect for this event, and you know it. It's his first PPV and he's not going to let us down.

He told you to re-organize this company and you started out well, but now what are you doing? You swinging chairs at our WWE Heavy-Weight champion? There was a reason why he was not released by Prof. Plague, and Prof. Plague is not happy that you've gone about the company doing stuff like this. So that's why we need to your and Triple H's opinions aside to run this company back on track like Prof. Plague wants it to. So, that's why at SummerSlam you and Triple H have to get this out of the way. I don't care if it's one-on-one, hardcore, cage, ladder; I don't even care if it's for the WWE Heavy-Weight title. I just want to see this a little thing between you two get cleared up before Prof. Plague starts noticing what's going on around here. Overall: 85 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SamoaRowe 0 Report post Posted September 4, 2004 The mental image of J.R. and King sitting around speculating over some mystery booker named "Plague" just amuses me waaay too much And how the hell did Cena vs Bubba Ray get ***3/4? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Prof_Plague Report post Posted September 6, 2004 And how the hell did Cena vs Bubba Ray get ***3/4? Haha. I don't know. Like I said, everyone in the game has unaltered stats. I would like to think that the random good matches, such as Cena vs. Dudley, of my upper-midcarders makes up for my 1/2* matches between my main eventers, i.e. Triple H vs. The Rock. And I just had pure luck between Guerrero vs. Ultimo Dragon - nothing less than ****1/2. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Prof_Plague Report post Posted September 6, 2004 I would like to think that I arrange more above-average matches between wrestlers like Cena, Dudley, Kanyon, et cetera. My future goal: When Val Venis returns, turn him into a ***3/4 wrestler. May be even work him up to ****. Hey, I can dream. ...Anything is possible in the WWE!

Guest Prof_Plague Report post Posted September 7, 2004 What is Prof. Plague doing backstage? Rumor has it that Plague is going to form new tag teams in the upcoming weeks and reunite former tag teams. In recent shows we've noticed the re-grouping of Edge and Christian. With more wrestlers being added from OVW to the full-time roster, we can only wait and see to who will appear on the full-roster and what their position in the company will be.

We don't take that sort of crap in the Plagued era of the WWE! Triple H, as long as you're in this company, and as long as I'm in the company, you are going to defend that title whenever I feel like - and make you defend. And that's whenever I feel like. And let's face it, I'm going to be with this company for a while. I can't guarantee how long for you. And how do I say that? Allow me to elaborate. Last Monday night on Raw, Vince assigned a match for SummerSlam, me versus you. He said he didn't care how we did it, as long as we had a match and this little problem was resolved. So, how about this? Your Heavy-Weight title on the line in a cage match! And I'll tell you what, you have no choice in the matter! I'm the Commissioner and this is what Prof. Plague wants!

Wait...Chris Kanyon comes running as well, and Booker gets dropped with a clothesline, Kanyon picks up Booker T - I'm Betta Than You on the steel ramp! He is left lying in the aisle. My Opinion: Solid bout, but they could do a lot better. *** Al Snow is backstage: Booker T, this past Monday you said that Raw was the last time you two would fight.

But they will be as long as Plague wants it to be. Shawn Michaels is backstage: Eddie Guerrero and Ultimo Dragon - you're another pair that needs to figure things out. I've decided that on-top of your little match tonight here on SmackDown!, you are also going to wrestle at SummerSlam! The guys in the Executive Office don't nkow what to make of you two!

My Opinion: I don't do it often, *****. Ross: Jim, it's about that time tonight. Triple H has to drag his sorry BUTT down to the ring and face AJ Styles one-on-one in an Iron Man match! Cornette: AJ Styles might be a talented athlete, but he's still new to this company. This match could go either way! Triple H vs. AJ Styles. Match Background: This will be an Iron Man bout for the World Heavyweight title as ordered by Randy Savage earlier in the night, once he gained control from Mikey Whipwreck when Triple H attacked him before SummerSlam started, at the end of Heat.

HHH and Flair bail out of the ring, leaving AJ Styles down in the ring. Mikey Whipwreck may have saved AJ Styles from a brutal beating. Whipwreck: Triple H, we're not done yet. Just because you can have Flair attack me from behind proves nothing! I'll be seeing you soon enough! Remember, I can still order you to do whatever I feel like. My Opinion: 1/4*. Be happy it's not a DUD. Kurt Angle vs. Chris Jericho. Jericho: You know everyone tonight seems to like to add a little something to their matches. So, how about it Angle? Let's add a little something to the WWE World title match. You seem to think that you're the greatest technical wrestler ever, so I want to prove you wrong. You have the Angle Lock, but I, Chris Jericho, Y2J - with all my Jericho-holics, have the Walls of Jericho! So, how about it, Olympic punk? A submission match. Right here, right now. And for the WWE World title. Angle: You're on. Because I am the greatest technical wrestler ever in the history of the WWE.

And a new Heavy-Weight champion - just like that! Kind of funny in an ironic sort of way. Triple H beats down Mikey Whipwreck to get out of the match tonight, but then he has to wrestle AJ Styles - and loses! Ross: We have a new Heavy-Weight champion! We'll see you all on Raw tomorrow night! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Prof_Plague Report post Posted September 8, 2004 So, last night Triple H loses his Heavy-Weight title belt against AJ Styles in his wrestling debut. Smarks and workers backstage are happy, but fans and Triple H aren't. After the match, Triple H went out of his way backstage to make it personally known that he had to carry the title match at SummerSlam. "I had to do everything I could to keep that match together. You think a wrestler like AJ Styles could? He's still a rookie in this business. I earned my place in the industry and the WWE. I don't think AJ Styles can handle being in the spot-light. The kid is only 25. He won't last." So not only is Triple H angry at the executives and Head Booker Prof. Plague about having to lose the title, he has to deal with someone 10 years younger than him holding, as he sees it, his Heavy-Weight title. In less than a month, a lot of Triple H's friends backstage have been released from the WWE, lost his Heavy-Weight title, and forced into a feud against Mikey Whipwreck. To say that least, Triple is not a happy camper. Rumor has it that AJ Styles is set to move-onto a different feud, and not a further one with Triple H, perhaps in attempts to regain the title. -Source: www.grapplefanatics.net Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cole: Well Tazz, it's now been a little less than a week now for our new Heavy-Weight champion AJ Styles, and he's already looking good. Even this past Raw he was set to wrestle World champion Kurt Angle, and those two had an exciting match! Tazz: You're telling me. Heavy-Weight champion versus World champion. It was one interesting match. They kept going back-and-forth - we thought and Angle was about to win, and then we thought Styles was going to win, and before we knew it - the time limit expired!

Your Olympic hero is still the reigning World Champion. And I may add, SummerSlam against Chris Jericho was one quick match,. He couldn't have expected to beat a gold medal Olympic champ such as myself not to beat him in a submission match! So, as I am the greatest WWE athlete to grace this company with such style and grace, I am offering an open challenge for tonight for my WWE World title. :Out from the back comes the debuting Ken Shamrock.: Shamrock: No Kurt. I am the greatest athlete in the WWE today. You might think you're a great submission wrestler because you're an Olympian, but you don't know what real wrestling is. I've never seen to make someone tape out in an Olympic match before., but I've made people tap out before in the cage. You think you're a great wrestler because you can wrestler the mats, but I've wrestled the Octagon. :Shamrock attacks Angle - He hits the Belly To Belly followed by an Ankle Lock!

Matt's Ladder of Success Rey Mysterio is backstage, when Mattitude (Matt Hardy and Shannon Moore) approaches him: Matt: Rey, I've been doing some thinking, you do really well in that ladder match at SummerSlam. So it made me think of how immune you might actually be to ladders. Rey: ...What? :Sean O'Haire comes from behind Rey and slams him behind the head with a ladder!

Ultimo Dragon turns around, and gets floored and bust open with a brutal chair shot! Eddie climbs to the top rope - Frog Splash! Eddie Guerrero has floored Ultimo and left his referee's shirt stained with blood. My Opinion: Good bout. In my estimation, it's about ***3/4. Rey Mysterio vs. Christian.

Disqualification! Rey Mysterio goes on the rampage, firing off stiff shots to both Christian and Matt Hardy Version 1.0, who take the hint and swiftly leave the ring for their own safety. My Opinion: I'll give it a **1\2 rating, but that's because I didn't mark out once...but nothing was too bad. Whipwreck's Thoughts Mikey Whipwreck comes to the ring: Triple H, I must admit you put up one heck of a fight the other night at SummerSlam! Hahahahah! I'm just kidding. That had to have been one of the quickest matches I have ever seen. :Out from the back comes Triple H, who hits the ring and attacks Whipwreck. Whipwreck gets bounced around the ring by punches and kicks. Triple H triumphs over Whipwreck and begins to head towards the back. Mikey Whipwreck gets up slowly: Dammit, Triple H! I'm not done with you yet! You think I didn't know you might do something like this? New York's finest, I want Triple H arrested for assault! :Police officers appear near the stage. Triple H runs back into the ring. Mikey Whipwreck is in trouble. Pedigree!!!

Plague has to look over the company and Mikey Whipwreck is in the man in charge of looking out for Plague's vision, and Triple H thinks he can run-over his plans! Triple H deserves to be arrested! I hope he spends a long time in jail! Cole: Tazz, I just don't know what to say. I thought it was just going to be a normal night of SmackDown!, but instead I've seen UFC champion Ken Shamrock take down and challenge Kurt Angle for the World title here tonight, Rey Mysterio has been sent to the hospital, and now Triple H is being arrested! Tazz: Cole, this is a normal night on SmackDown! Cole: I just can't keep with this! I'm now being asked to have everyone watch the Titantron for a special announcement from Mikey Whipwreck! Whipwreck's Announcement Whipwrreck: Hah! Triple H - you think you can do whatever you want in this company. I have a little surprise for you. :A video plays with an raven and clips from the Raven / CM Punk feud and dog collar match.: That's right Triple H, he's coming to the WWE! I have some more reinforcements and you have a something else to worry about. Overall: 87 Tazz: Oh no, Cole. This can't be true. Raven is coming back to the WWE? Didn't they learn from all the horrors that Raven cost last time?! And now Commissioner Whipwreck and Prof. Plague are welcoming him with open arms! This is a bad, bad, bad idea! World's Greatest Tag Team vs. Brock Lesnar and The Rock vs. Chris Benoit and Rob Van Dam. Match Background: This will be an elimination bout. This match is for the World Tag Team titles.
