Parts of the show are short and chaotic, but I needed to get this show out after a long hiatus due to being busy and work and moving house. It also explains the lack of the new arena I created for Spring Breakdown, and the next show will probably be done using this arena too unfortunately, before I can set the old one back up.

Feedback, both positive and constructive, is much appreciated.

BWR is back, huh? Neat
First segment was pretty interesting although short. I'll not make the comment on stuff being short since you yourself explained it in the post for this.
Really liked Orton/Jericho. Prob the best it could get with the poseability of the figs in question.
The Dudleyz role is pretty interesting. Sucks to see randy go as I really liked that match. Dangit, jericho too? Hopefully they don't stay fired. Commentary is pretty good. Santino's coming? Can't wait to see whether he'll be serious Santino or comedic relief santino.
Lol... Al Snow. The most extreme and hardcore wrestler ever. Found the segment kinda unintentionally funny.
Tommy Dreamer coming out to face RVD probably but I haven't seen yet. I remember complaining since I had no clue whether or not RVD was a face for betraying dreamer or a heel. Seems like you've gotten better at posing then last time. Takes a bit to load for me. I like how developmental looks different then your regular ring.
Okay, here's something you haven't gotten better on: Screwy finishes. First match goes well so technically it's fine but then both of them get fired. Honestly I don't think this counts.
Second match: RVD knocks TD and Umaga out
Third match: Self explanatory.
If you have more time constraints (obviously you do and you can't spend more time then you already are on it) I'd suggest maybe doing highlights of matches instead of screwy finish, screwy finish, screwy finish.
Overall, it was good for what it was and I can't wait until you can put up your old arena again.

4/5 stars for what it was.

Really enjoyed that, well worth the wait! I'm loving the Dreamer/Van Dam feud as well as the megalomaniac storyline that you've got going on with Williams. Looking forward to more BWR again soon!

[RWF]

Really fun show. I like your layout and setup. Probably the coolest thing was the pre-tape of the training area. Added a lot of realism.

I like the setup with Mason and Barrett, though I don't know why Williams would do that. Good stuff with Christian as well.

I definitely dig the way the Dudleys came in and took people out. Reminded me a bit of 3 minute warning in that regard.

Speaking of, fun match with Umaga and Dreamer and I like that this feud isn't tied to everything else.

Fantastic show top to bottom!

Appreciate the comments and feedback so far, guys.

@brickandyozen - I always mean to work on the screwy finishes, but I end up using them to advance storylines more. My idea is that the 'weekly' shows are there to advance my storylines, and they have longer, better quality matches at PPVs (with hopefully not as many screwy finishes).

JP - megalomaniac...may have to use that on commentary in the next show. I like that word.

RWF - the comparison to 3MW is pretty spot on. I hope I won't copy them too much, but I definitely loved them under Bischoff.

Thanks again to you three, and any more feedback would be greatly received.

This was a great show Titch. I am happy to see you back. Everything was good. I am into the storylines and thought this show was awesome. It seems like the BWR is changing. It's a new BWR. The only tip I can give you is to try to work on that odd pose that pops up once in a while.
-I dig the recap.
-Nice arena. I like the opening. Great feud in the works. Glad you are using a more modern Wade. Nice face turn for Barrett.
-Nice CC interview. I am intrigued about Edge.
-Love the name for the next show.
-Nice match with Orton and Jericho. Probably one of your best matches. I dug the finish and what happened after it. 3D!
-Nice Santino.
-All we want is Al Snow and some head.
-Nice Van Dam promo and on commentary. I feel you kind of jobbed Umaga in this match and definitely took away his heat and dominance. Dreamer looked good. Let's go RVD.
-Mr. Miller looks cool.
-Nice British Brawl for the main event. I was hoping Barrett would pull through. Christian for champ and Prime Minister.
Good show bud.

Barrett isn't lucky ^^
Strange story between Edge and Christian
Good match between Jericho and Orton, I love the RKO ! Great ending with the boss and Dudleys, I hope they will take revenge
I hope we will see Snow in the future
This Dreamer vs RVD rivalry is interesting, can't wait to see what's next
Cool thing to have custom wrestlers
Great Main Event, I love this new feud Barrett vs Ryan
Really good show, nice job !

Really, really great show. I don't think I've watched a Titch show in about eight years, but I could just tell it was you, if that makes sense haha.

Just from the opening sequence, I get a real Attitude era feel to it - your owner's like Mr. McMahon, but worse. It's good to see British guys like Barrett and Mason Ryan getting used in main event positions too.

The Jericho and Orton match was good, I loved the RKO pose. I'm interested in just how far the whole 'evil owner' thing can go, it's interesting seeing wrestlers like Orton and Jericho just fired.

That injury boot on Dreamer looks amazing haha, really added to the segment even something as small as that. The whole thing with the new guy 'winning a contract' is great too, gets people invested in the character from the get-go.

The main event was overbooked as hell, and I absolutely loved it. Genuinely, there wasn't a thing about this match I didn't love - there's a real skill in being able to weave that many run-ins and interferences into a match and still have it remain coherent. Somewhat surprised to see Barrett drop the title, but the main event picture is definitely looking interesting now.

Appreciate the flashback for Desolation, not sure if I caught that one. But what else is there to say that hasn't been said a million times. Titch you are the man. The show was immense as per usual. I have to admit as that type of arena would be something I shoot for if I came back, it looks brilliant. You really work it, aha. Looking forward to the "Pride of Italy" and wherever BWR goes. I love your backstage segments, just makes it feel so complete. Props to you man. You certainly know what you are doing.

[dalahnthegreat]

WOW, I really enjoyed every segment. the vintage Dudley boy activity brought back many memories. I never like Christian, but, now i may have to dust him off and use him when i break out my figs. I really enjoyed the Mason and wade angle as well as ur announce team. Keep up the good work and keep the ideas flowing.
