THE MAIN EVENT - TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP CONTENDERSHIP MATCH
The Predators (Jay Hawke and Nighthawk) vs. Wasted Youth (Zyon and "The Divine Wind" Akira Kaibatsu)

-> Mak Francis mentioned that the Predators impressive victory over Clarmsley might put them in line for a title shot - not just yet! Because while it's true Peters has had his eye on The Predators as potential Tag Team Contenders, his OTHER eye has been on the team of Zyon and Akira Kaibatsu, no strangers themselves to the tag team world! Tonight, we decide who will be challenging for TSWG's Tag Team Titles on Smarkdownoween! ***
Rules: Standard tag team match.
Word Limit: 5500

CRUISERWEIGHT MATCH (non title)
Michael Stephens vs. Ultimo Phantasmo

-> With the revelation that the Elimination Chamber will now be for BOTH of Michael Stephens’ singles titles, we decided it was time to give the Cruiser champ a tune-up! Tonight he faces a most impressive cruiserweight in the Ultimo Phantasmo!
Rules: Standard with Cruiser Addenda.
Word Limit: 5000
Send to: Chuck Woolery

HOUSE RULES – CASINO BRAWL
Bruce Blank vs. Landon “La Cucaracha” Maddix

-> To survive a match like the Elimination Chamber, you either need to have Spiderman’s powers, or you need to be tough as hell. I think Wildchild has Spiderman powers, but the rest of our roster is out of luck on that front, which means they’ll need to rely on their endurance to see them through. Tonight, two of the contestants who are facing off in the EC will go one on one, an early meeting designed to gauge just how tough these guys really are. Bruce is an established hardcore aficionado, but if memory serves me right, Landon's got some experience in Casino Brawls...
Rules: NONE WHATSOEVAAAH~~! Match starts on the Casino Floor - first pinfall (where ever it may occur) wins.
Word Limit: 5000
Send to: Ace309

CRUISERWEIGHT MATCH
“Hollywood” Spike Jenkins vs. Jimmy the Doom

-> When it was announced that both the World Title AND the Cruiserweight Title would be up for grabs at Ashes 2 Ashes, I’m sure visions of sugar plums danced in Spike Jenkins’ head. That or dollar signs. It’s a toss up.

In any event, we’re giving Spike a chance to tune up against the reigning Hardcore Champion, Jimmy the Doom!
Rules: Standard, with Cruiser addenda.
Word Limit: 5000

Opening Promo: Bruce Blank.

*chirs3 prays that he didn't screw anything up*







*** I just realized that if we have the tag title match on Smarkdown, then writer-swapping would be off the table for that match. So for those involved, champs and potential challengers - do you want the title match on Smarkdown, or do you want to push it past the PPV so you can partake in the writer-swapping festivities of Smarkdown? Let me know, either here or via PM or IM.

As usual, those without matches, feel free to request.

And I still have very few A2A plans from people, which means the dreaded random triple threat could be YOURS! :P Edited by chirs3

Somehow mistook this Card thread for the CC card thread. D'oh.

 

Ignore any previous postings you might have seen here. The card is still in progress.

Show will be pushed back to Thursday to compensate. Long busride home momentarily, but I've got my laptop - hopefully I'll have everything finalized by then. Expect something in about 2-3 hours.

 

Mucho apologosios for el delayadore. Senor.

Zyon + Akira = "wasted youth" so you know. I've started the stats at least three times but never finished, so that never got out there, but yeah. Wasted Youth.

I'd rather throw Jacob Helmsley into a vat filled with rubber duckies, like back in the JL.

 

I can't even really tag with anyone in the SWF right now, unless Maddix somehow wins the JL Euro title and we can do "Euro Disney" like was suggested back in the day. Then again, Clark and Maddix usually mix like oil and water, so yeah...

Landon I've got a major overhaul of my stats coming up, I will PM them to you in a matter of hours. It's more than just a change of music or moves so I wouldn't recommend starting just yet ;)

In other news, can anyone find me a better picture? I usually search Wiki, the venue's homepage, and Google image search, but none of those had any good pictures of the arena.

I want in on character swapping, so I vote we push the tag title match back past A2A.

I don't really care either way.

 

Anything from the respective partners?

I'd just like to point out that as Ultimo Phantasmo is stronger, faster and tougher than Toxxic, I look forward to being on the receiving end of a semi-squash from Mr. Silent Presence :P

I can't believe you didn't book Johnny on a Las Vegas show. I guess I should have reminded you about the 'Johnny is supposed to compete in a tag on lockdown after forced to find a new tag partner."

Pushing it back is better for me since Im headed to Myrtle Beach beginning Saturday and won't be available for the PPV anyway.

I've suggested ample ways to write the character. It's not that difficult unless you're being a cock and trying to make fun of my bitching from about two weeks ago.

 

Otherwise I guess I should just write the bible of, "Basically, I shouldn't have to write this, but he's a striker who is fast and only goes to desperation high risk when he can't pull out the win." Considering Toxx is probably more experienced, I'd say that situation arises more than not, Phantasmo makes mistake after mistake, and finds himself in desperate measures looking for a win. Doesn't get it and that's what causes the loss to the champion whose experience in dealing with a variety of weights and styles is just too much for the physically marvelous Ultimo Phantasmo.

 

I don't even think the strength stat is that high, it was a 4 at most last I remembered unless it got changed during an edit and I simply can't remember.

Nah, we British are never cocks, always polite us and never do we use sarcasm either!

 

Ah, I remember in my day, the champion got respect! /recalls Stubby.

 

... Ok, no, never mind, carry on!

Which, hilariously enough, is exactly what I'm doing.

 

Besides, the issue wasn't with me not being able to write your character, your problem was that while facing a character who was physically inferior to you in every way but still wrestles a fairly high-flying gameplan, you struggled to write a competitive match. I just wondered if you'd still find it difficult to write a competitive match given that you're facing a wrestler who is physically inferior to you in every way and wrestles a fairly high-flying gameplan but also happens to be World Champion.

That's hillarious, it took me all of 30 seconds to weigh what your character would do in that situation, and then remembered it was Michael Stephens who has always been about beating the physically bigger and better opponents. Besides, there is stuff in the stats that provide some information as to what Phantasmo might actually do in any given situation, I just took it upon myself to edit them a while ago and explain it in writing as opposed to yanking the chain gently towards the solution.

 

The problem wasn't that fact that she was physically inferior, the problem was that the stats were informatively inferior!
