your right CBT, I was bad owner..........................................
on the record I deleted the ones that were pointless after awhile, i kept most of the main ppl who may come back. I dont like the thought of having 7 pages of bios and only 2 pages of actual rpers...thats pointless to me

Do we really have to worry about that portion of the board flooding? As I mentioned, there's a right way and a shadow way. I've made mistakes as owner, but I still think I was a match-booking god. (puts on the riot gear)

Except for the "pure rules" with the Heavyweight Title. That was stupid, mainly considering a) every title match sans vs. Dean (I'm assuming) excluded the pure rules. b) They were not just excluded, but completely neglected and made a joke of when the matches are competed under hardcore stipulations. c) There's feuds for the Heavyweight Title, so why would two guys who have a beef (ala Obo vs. the world) shake hands and fight in a friendly environment? Bad CBT, bad.

I HATE RANDOM ASS GIMMICK matches. I don't have much of a defense, the only PPV title match under my watch was Barbedwire Masacre. That was Rev and Obo's dealing. Their call, not mine. I'm sure pure rules happened at least three times. So, you're wrong, I hate where that comment is gonna go. I agree with you, surprised much? I made pure rules, with the impression, it'd be change. Appearantly, more change is always needed. Whether or not it amounts to a clusterf~ck. I blame Obo, whether I praised the match or not. 9 times out of 10, I enjoyed the roleplays. Felt the match gimmick was russo-riffic. It's sad Thunder won his title under Obo's rules. But what's new. Rad as well retire pure rules, since nobody gives a rat's ass to write them. properly. Stereotypical. ROH has blood feuds, you know? Like I could compile a list of very serious injuries mid-match. Where the actions led to what ever resulted. That being said, I think the writer of said match should take the blame... if you don't announce a writer after the match is posted, you are the fall man. Which I and Rev almost always gave credit if needed. He can back me up. Are time issues were usually doing a show all by our lonesone. Not waiting for some one else to write it, even if that's the second best solution. Right behind recaps.

Just to jump in, it's not like ROH is exactly the pinnacle of pro wrestling booking. I mean, it's kind of hard to not get over when you;re a regional company with a following that blindly accepts every booking decision no matter how much sense it makes or doesn't make.
Besides, Necro Butcher vs. BJ Whitmer didn't get five stars, Joe vs. Punk did. Nobody in the long run is going to look back on a "Ladder War" as the best match that they've ever seen, but I can vouch for a lot of people who can say that about matches like the SOTF finals from 04 or Joe/Punk from 12/4. And neither of those needed a blood feud gimmick or anything of that nature.
Just saying.

I agree, but you still made the pure rules a mandatory stipulation (at least it's supposed to be). So right there your basically admitting under your own ownership you'd let it be ignored, which makes it rather pointless in the long run. Indeed. Find me these times when the pure rules has been used three times. The only one that I'm certain it has been are Authointed vs. McBurton, one that I wrote, and one that I barely utilized it in. Again, I'm gonna assume Dean vs. Obo did but I can't truthfully vouch for it. So that said, there's two examples, one being a match that had it as a tacky stipulation anyways (tag match). So in the history of the "pure rules" it's been carried through most likely (and only possibly) once. I hate the match because Thunder wins the title yet still gets squashed at the very end just in an effort for Obo to put himself over even after losing. That's really bullcrap, unless Thunder was asked prior. Okay, but in "blood feuds" the pure rules are negated but were used in every other match. That doesn't happen in the WFWF so it's apples and oranges.

So it wasn't about ROH. Although the SOTF match was, I feel it fit the PPV theme or the name... had to be the name. Oh and E I will definitely find the matches or admit to my faux pas. For now I'm off like the stigmata Obo put on WFWF with his title reign. But on that note, I admit- taking a few shots on Obo is becoming my thing. I expected big things; a long title reign and great matches. He only gave me the long title reign and a couple roleplays where he did every thing but put over his opponent. Thunder to me is like the foreign talent of WFWF. So much untraveled road he can bring. So long as upper management books him right. Thunder-Deville III could be a classic.... A true classic.

That's really bull ****, unless Thunder was asked prior. I wasn't asked and I hated that, which I did tell Obo afterwards. Still, having the new champion get squashed immediately after winning is about as TNA-riffic as it gets.

Having a bunch of stipulations when all but two are ignored is also a TNA moment, so I guess it fit with the PPV. *shrugs*

Now whether or not Wayne vs Obo was kept Pure during the match... I don't know. I just know plot line wise Wayne hates Pure Rules because he can't win those matches.

I could have giving a testicle up to a hungry girl on Obo being the anti-Pure Rules link. But I thank you, couldn't find that match in archives for the life of me. It was also a 30-minute iron man match. I believe I wrote it. I also believe, not counting E's tag mention, that's three..

And honestly, it shouldn't even count when we think about it. It was specifically voted for the pure rules, while the other three were supposed to do it by default. But I'll admit you just shut me the up on the other three, even though there was a lack of handshakes. *shrug*

Wayne-Obo 1 was an iron man match, which also is not, and cannot be "pure rules" because it has another gimmick attached. Meaning, the only time pure rules were ever used were the creation of the belt for Shadow-Obo and Dean-Obo which was a worthless match anyways. I believe Dean-Obo was the match that the ring-apron-to-guard-rail double stomp was created..

I'm sorry, take this for what it's worth... but you obviously didn't read the match and just read results. Of course I do the same when ever you write the matches. Oh and for the record, it was pure rules. Just with fractionation. (great word) Could have just as well not been an ironman match and went to a draw. Don't ask me how though- nobody does ever put into mind how long a match would have to go with endless spots.

The only thing I can say on this is the fact was we did a pure rules match in the first title match. In the interest of fairness and storyline we let obo pick the second match type sort of like I did your thing now your doing mine. The rest of happened after I left so I have no idea how often it was actually enforced......

so.. I quit my dead end job today and lost a friend of 10 years. What's up *looks up* Fluorescent lights. In my uni library, where I will likely spend the next 10-12 hours working on an essay due next Monday. Things also up... My blood pressure: because the blanking morons who book exams somehow managed to put my COMS 201 exam and my GNST 300 exam on the same day. Great times General anxiety: because apparently there is an outbreak of the mumps on campus... my caffein intake: for obvious reasons. Sorry about your friend, and congrats on your job.

This is a ultimatum, if you dont like like this song, or if you have never listened to it, you shall be canned from the WFWF.
By canned I mean you will be in front of a firing squad and get belted him numerous dented cans.

So needless to say, this song sucks And I'm aware of my Dragonforce sig contradicting this statement, so don't bother pointing it out
