RAW Real Action Wrestling (Press Release 8/20/11)

[Deleted]

Hey everyone, it's my first post on here. I've actually been coming to the boards a couple months now and just never bothered to sign up, but with some spare time in the near future, and being a fan of photography, I would like to start my own Pic Fed.

I look forward to being an active member of this board and hope that I can produce quality shows as well as many of you do!

Looking forward to it. Welcome aboard.

Hey there and welcome! I'm also new to the picture fed portion of these forums. It's cool that you're also starting a new fed, I look forward to seeing it!

Thanks guys, yeah my cousin actually posts on here, Robert69, and he knew I was a fan of wrestling and photography, so he told me about this pic fedding thing a couple months ago, and I've been watching different shows on here for a while, trying to get a feel for what I was supposed to do, and I think I finally have enough figured out to give it a shot.

Luckily he has a spare comp, camera, figures, everything I need, so until I get more of my own stuff, I'll be using a lot of his.

I'm hoping to have a press conference posted today!

Stephanie McMahon: Hello everyone, I am the General Manager of Real Action Wrestling, Stephanie McMahon. It is my pleasure to be a part of the organizing and planning of this exciting new company. Real Action Wrestling is focused on bringing you the most exciting Wrestling you’ve ever seen. Now, here is the Founder and CEO of RAW, Joseph Hudson!

Joseph Hudson: Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for attending tonight’s Press Conference. I will do my best to keep things on track as much as possible. Stephanie is holding our prized RAW Title, so you can obviously see what that will look like. Here in front of me are the Tag Team, and U.S. Titles, which will also be up for grabs. To start the show off, our first several episodes will be dedicated almost entirely to a RAW Title Tournament, which will give every one of our 16 Superstars the opportunity to compete for the Title, until there is one clear cut winner. That will be the man that is the face of our Company.

JH: As the RAW Arena is being constructed, a local High School has been kind enough to lease out their gym to us in the mean time. The first several episodes will take place here until the RAW Arena is finished for us. Ideally, in time for our first Pay-Per-View Event. Now, I will open the floor for questions.

Reporter: Do you have a Wellness Policy in place?

JH: Every Superstar is given a drug test every 90 days. This is part of their contract, and cannot be brushed off. If a Superstar refuses to take part in the drug tests, their contracts are deemed void and they are terminated immediately.

R: Are there any major rule changes that the average Wrestling fan would need to know about?

JH: No, the idea was to simplify our Product to the point that your hardcore wrestling fan will enjoy it, but the person first tuning in will be able to understand what’s going on as well. The biggest change will be formatting for the U.S. Title. The United States Title will be competed for on a basis of a rankings system. This will be determined after we’ve gotten sufficiently through the RAW Title Tournament that we have enough competitors to hold the rankings match.

R: Any hints as to the storylines set up already?

JH: Our company focus is on entertainment. This means Phenomenal wrestling and enthralling storylines. To give any hint as to what we have planned would be detrimental to the project right out of the gate. What I will tell you is that we have an incredible number of talented Superstars on our Roster, and I think you will find it quite entertaining.

R: Stephanie, why did you not just try to rebuild the WWE?

SM: With everything, you know the whole Zombie outbreak, thing happening. It was just best for me to separate myself from those that were lost. I think some Superstars you’ll see in RAW feel the same way. It was just a very unfortunate situation, and we lost a lot of good people. People we loved. But Society came out of it, intact, and we’re just trying to move forward from that.

R: Are you guys planning to do anything to honor those lost in that Event?

JH: Not really, to be honest. As with most people, we’re just looking to move on from it and give people something familiar and exciting. We will be setting up this weekend for our first Episode and will be bringing it to you soon. With that said, we need to get back to work. Thank you for your time.

I hope this excites you guys. If you read the entire press release, I think you'll find a few surprises in there that will be entirely unexpected. This is definitely an alternate Universe and I'm going to do a lot to try and make it seem that way. I hope this Press Release makes you interested to read and see more!

[Robert69]

Wow, the zombie thing? You really went with that?...Alright man, but good luck with that. I'm intrigued, I'll say that much. Just don't come cryin' to me when you need help with storylines cause you can't write.

I like how you just casually dropped that there, like it's no big thing, you know. I live in Panama. Been here 20 years. The weather's great. Cost of live is pretty reasonable. I work from home and I'm currently working on my masters thesis. They are building a subway system here and just recently started renewing the bus system. We have quite some big malls with lots of stores. Zombie invasion wiped out most of the country though. There is also the Canal and other interesting places to visit. Great radio too, some very good rock stations...

[Deleted]

robert, bite me dude.

@wcm, lol. Hey man, I tried to think of something more creative then the usual. I figure if I'm going to make a show, I might as well make the entire World they live in. I'm a fan of zombie flicks, so I thought, why not?...and I thought "You know, what if it happens. But society actually makes it through it?...here's what I think would happen."

[WCM's Izzy]

Dude, I'm going to be real honest with you (lol, that's kinda my signature line, I'm realizing now), the moment I see one of your matches suffering from a run-in of ZOMBIES, I'm going to push you all the way up to my top fave feds! I am already envisioning a bizarre mix of WWE and The Living Dead! I'm sure some may say "Zombies? You kiddin' us?" but for me, these are action figures, they are toys, we are supposed to have fun with them and do all the crazy stuff there is no way could happen in real life (which is why I loved shows life WTF Hour... of Power! so much) so go with it, man! Are there going to be zombie customs? I'm intrigued!

[Deleted]

Lol, well thanks. I'm trying to think of things that will keep the product entertaining and creative. And maybe a little ridiculous at times, who knows...

Either way, what I can tell you is it should be fun. I don't know much about customs. What I do know is I have through the first PPV planned out so far, and I assure you there will be some surprises. You'll just have to watch bro.

[RCW]

ECW invasion? no. TNA Invasion? no. Zombie invasion? Yes.

Looks good can't wait!
