Hey there~! So I'm a bit of an old dog when it comes to e-fedding. I've been doing this for longer than I'm proud to admit and over the years I've created a few characters - some I'm proud of, some I really wish I didn't main for the majority of that time. Considering this fed supports multi-characters, it's safe to assume I'm not the only one so I thought we could maybe look back at some of our best and worst characters over the years. The Best: Dr Shrapnel and Nursey: Have you ever had a character you just HAD to create? Someone that made you WANT to find an e-fed and bring to life? For me, that's Dr Shrapnel and Nursey. To me, the two have a sense of familiarity - they're like a mix of all my previous works without any of the complications. Honestly, if I ever wanted to try and become a pro wrestler, I would absolutely try and become The Doctor. EDIT: My one regret is that I didn't have the hindsight to realise the best name for a pro wrestling surgeon is Dr. Frankensteiner 404: 404 was awesome. It was a faction of 404 masked strangers, posting memes and fighting "the system" (They had no idea what the system was). For me, they were just a way for me to not worry about titles and just have fun writing. If I decided to revive a character - it would absolutely be 404. The Worst: "The Depressed Daydreamer" Tony Daniels: ... My goddamn main for honestly way too long, Tony Daniels as a character was me at my edgiest. The dude entered to The Used and wore nothing but black, the irony was that his base pic was Dean Cain. He was depressed and he was suicidal, and he used the ring to gamble his life. He was the ultimate cruiserweight, the fastest of the fast and the highest of the fliers. A true daredevil. As a teen, he was so cool! As an adult reading my old work... My eyes struggle to roll back any further. Over the years the character became too complex to the point where I didn't recognize him anymore. Eventually, I retired the character. During a reunion run of my old fed, Tony Daniels was brought back to take the helm as Head Commentator - which I thought was pretty cool. Kamen Fighter: PURATENEMU: This is one of those "wrong place, wrong time" moments. I was in a very serious fed that valued drama and realism... And here I was trying to be a one-man Power Ranger. "Xero G" Cameron Magera: My first rp character, he was a mix of Jeff Hardy and The Rock... We all have those characters we don't admit. |

I'm not a writer, therefore I'm not always so sure about how to best flesh out a character. I can't say I've ever ran a character idea through a forum that in the end was an embarrassment. Dismal failure perhaps better describes it. In effort to create a list it would have to be more about which characters were successes in my honest goals with them, and which ones really missed the mark. That being said... It's going- It's going- It's gone! Adam Superstar was my first shot at creating an e-fed character, and happily he turned out to be a real joy to write about. My first e-fed was kind of a shit house in my opinion. Stable beat-downs and safety in numbers was common place. It actually wasn't uncommon for an entire stable of guys to lump into your thread and lay waste to your dude. Lots of broken noses and gushing blood for one reason or another... and there wasn't a whole helluva lot I, as a new guy, could do about it. Basically, you can't beat 'em so you may as well join 'em... or create your own stable of enforcers, which is pretty much what I did. By way of perseverance and dedicated character crafting, Adam Superstar became both popular and revered within our little circle. I dare say, it was via my efforts with Adam Superstar that earned me an invite to FIW. Angus McDuff was my eventual first step over the NGIW threshold. I had been with FIW first, but NGIW caught my eye and really appealed to me. The community seemed to be more my speed. I desperately wanted their acceptance. I threw one half-baked character into Wight's application pool, and the poor lame-ass Vampire Warrior named Gideon Broley sank like a rock. Too generic and lacking a lot of necessary sparkle. Then I came up with Angus, and maybe Wight decided to take a chance on something though not necessarily unique was certainly different. I don't think he ever regretted the decision as Angus was a fan-favorite within a few months. He was very much an every-man type character who earned the respect of characters and handlers alike. People liked to see Angus win and were genuinely bummed when he came up just a little too short. He was a special dude. Adam "The Great White Hype" Wilson. Oh boy. What do I say about this guy? Some people loved him. Some people hated him. I can honestly say I've produced some of my finest work through his lens, basically because it was my own lens. The Hype was pretty much who I would be if I ever got a shot at being a for reals pro wrestler. With one heart-felt role play effort against a very worthy opponent (nothing but love for Drake Love~!) I managed to expose so many layers of this character while ironically talking about layers. Fast-forward a couple of years and The Hype managed to defeat the then undefeated Chester Wynn. How'd that even happen?! It was a proud moment for sure. I dare say, The Hype could never be as good now as he was then. Swing and a Miss Spicey McHaggis didn't exactly go as planned. He had his moments, and when those moments came, people seemed to dig the character... but then he sort of turned into a Bray Wyatt knock-off because I was far too inspired by the Eater of Worlds. In the end, I just couldn't be original or genuine with poor Spicey, and he got future endeavored. Joe Tua. Fuck, that was dumb. Dr. Martin Luthor Johnson. Sometimes you just can't write a certain character type. Blacksploitation evangelical radical? Nope. Apparently beyond my skill set. But I gave it the old college try. Eventually, after maybe one or two role plays, I used the good doctor as a means to introduce a character I was far more comfortable with. I tried slipping him back into the mix a couple of years ago as a manager, but quickly (and the Rock means quickly) lost all motivation for that! |

Sweet buttery jezuz do i have far too many characters and tag teams! but i pretty much have most connected through a fed or some sort of manner. I have like... a few mains i guess now. I'm not as experienced as most here in efedding as the since we think and know. but i started out in 2013 playing a game called Master Of The Mat or MOTM. I loved that place in the beginning! had my own fed within two days of joining and that place was like my home from home on the internet. well short story short it's kinda like efedding but you "pick moves" and power and stuff. it was fun and it gave me a place for tons of ideas! Good Characters (well i think there good enough anyways): Kira Izumi: He's been my most successful character and he's my first "efed" character as well. Sure he's changed allot and had more music changes then the beatles have songs, but hey! i found a gimmick i can write and do with him now so... i feel like he has much more potential here. Yuki Sakaraba: Again she's fairly new, but i've been doing great things with her so far and have been having fun with this super hard to explain,but fun to write gimmick of hers. Jordan Rayburn: He hasn't done much here, but in MOTM... oh boy what hasn't he done there!? he's gotta be my most successful character in the MOTMverse. I had so many fun stories and great feuds in MOTM even having rednecks vs hillbillies in my baby Redneck Wrestling Federation (RWF) Man those were the days,lol. Bad Characters: My awful attempt at Kazuchika Okada: well what can i say? i was young and stupid. well younger and stupider then i am now anyway. Danuwaanalihi: Was a beast in MOTM, but as soon as i brought him here and wrote rps and stuff... he became nothing but a broken record and kinda a racist guy who's just... angry. My many anime based characters: well... i had too many to actually list alone. Many were... just bad. Mayuri Kurotsuchi was actually fun though... i killed people then brought them back to life, but he was still very... not good either. Shounen and Shoujo Tiger: i attempted to do a jervis cottenbelly like gimmick with just the nicest possible human beings being wrestlers. Boy do i suck at hardcore babyfaces or what?! Shonen Tiger had one match... i couldn't write them good at all. and i have many more who are both good and bad just... WAY too many to list and write down. |

So, I've had a total of 3 (2 individual wrestlers and a tag team) wrestling characters, because I haven't been doing e-Feds that long (just barely over a year, in fact) or been a wrestling fan (first show was Summer Slam 16). However, I have been roleplaying online since...I dunno, 2003-ish, and I've had some doozies and some amazing moments. Highlights: Jacquard Batiste- a tribute character in a Hunger Games RP, he was meant to die early on to elicit feels and stroke my ego for writing a sympathetic character that could tug on the whole board's heartstrings. Instead, the shy little shop boy from District Eight turned out to be the most intuitive to write character I've ever played. It was like I had a weird window into a real person's head, and he was far stronger, crazier, and more doggedly resourceful than I'd ever guessed. He went from a 1 (real bad) in his pre games Gamemaker session to actually winning the whole thing and going on to be a mentor character of mine and site award winning character. John Balthaazar - On an original superhero board, I played a former pill junkie who had killed a woman while he was driving under the influence. Her husband was a voodoo priest, and cursed John to "burn eternally." He manifested the power to light his body on fire, got super healing, flight, etc, but also would burst into flames when he experienced intense emotions and those emotions would grow exponentially. Essentially, think a combination of The Human Torch and The Hulk. After some serious getting in touch with his inner zen, John joined The Crusaders, a superhero organization who kept Earth safe from threats both terrestrial and extraterrestrial. He was super fun to play. Jenny Cheon- a member of The Company on a Heroes spinoff site. She was a hardass, quiet, and obscenely confident Primatech Employee who hunted down evolved humans. She eventually discovered she too had evolved genes (the ability to metabolize and neutralize toxins with her bodily fluids) and I had an amazing arc with her struggling over whether to turn herself in or keep her abilities hidden and continue her job as well as struggling with guilt over all the evos she had locked up. Sam Winters - The vast majority of my RP experience online has been on Firefly RP sites. I was asked to be part of a Firefly RP on a board that hosted many games, and through that met a bunch of people who had made a site called Finding Serenity (which I found out today is still alive over a decade and a half later). I made Sam, who was a handsome, young, rich kid from Bellerophon (the planet with the floating island houses) who had decided to stick it to his parents because he didn't like the arranged marriage they had for him and join the Browncoats at the end of the Unification War. He sucked with guns, so they made him a medic. After the war, he joined a few ships, eventually ending up on the Mei Ren Wu, where he found the love of his life (played by another player on the site), had several crazy adventures, got married, had a kid, and eventually went back and confronted his parents and made things right. He eventually retired after years of adventures and is raising three children and working as an EMT on a jungle planet. Cambric Mackinaw- this was a combination of having an amazing writing partner and just being able to write a character intuitively. Cambric was a rebel on the Hunger Games board that I was on for years. He lived in District Eight and was the stereotypical angry young violent smuggler for the resistance. He was written for a one off storyline and then I planned to shelve him once that was done. However, a new player showed up and proposed a romance plot. I love romance plots. This was a weird Romeo and Lowlights Chibia Mayumi- A character for an AU Sailor Moon site that I joined because I had internet friends there and no other site at the time to actually play on. She was Sailor Aries (because Zodiac Senshi were a thing there), and I literally had nothing else figured out but tried to roleplay her anyways despite not even knowing the first thing about Sailor Moon. It was a train wreck. Literally an Unnamed Dude- So, my first ever online RP experience was in the very early 2000s on a Vampire: the Masquerade board. I was a huge pen and paper V:tM player at the time and wanted more play. I'd found a PbP board, made a character sheet, and decided that he was completely amnesic from being turned into a vampire and literally didn't know who turned him into one. In V:tM, that turns him into a Caitiff, aka a Clanless vampire which is a bad thing in Vampire society. It was literally months of me playing a character with no name, randomly using experience points to add random stuff to my character sheet, and generally annoying everyone on the site. Actually Me - On one of the boards I played on for years (the aforementioned Firefly board), there was a sub board where people could run games in other settings. One of our players ran a game based on the TV show Drive, which is a show about people in a road race/scavenger hunt for a cash prize. My IRL friend and I decided to just play ourselves, complete with cringey MS paint graphics of our faces in our bios and photos of my actual car. It was...special. |

Okay, I’m going to try this. I can guarantee I will miss a few characters along the way. Lots of short-lived feds where I created new wrestlers only for the places to fade away. But I will list each one I can remember in approximate chronological order. “The Fallen Angel” Scott Addams - My first character, best summed up as WCW-era Chris Jericho going through a goth phase. “The 8th Deadly Sin” Victor Kross - One of my longest running characters. Debuted in Dark Kurse Wrestling Order along with his bodyguard Cyrus. It was revealed that Cyrus was one of several daemons operating within the fed. He was tasked with protecting Kross, a descendant of a bloodline of daemons whose progeny would sway the pending war with Heaven. Proximity to other daemons caused Victor to hear voices, manifestations of his latent daemon blood. Kross had a son (more on that to come) whose mother he eventually murdered in DKWO. The overall story faded for a while after the fed folded. Kross reemerged in GCW, following a heated rival. Kross had discovered that liberal amounts of absinthe quieted the voices. This also led to many entertaining hallucinations. Kross had a successful run here, leading to his Hall of Fame induction shortly before the doors closed. I have brought him back in a few feds since, but I have yet to recapture the magic of the glory days. Xavier Saint - “The Suicide King” “The Ultraviolet Icon” After DKWO, I was part of a fed called Demonic Combat Wrestling. A “suicidal high flyer” in the most literal sense. Death followed Saint, putting anyone he encountered in danger of a Final Destination-style demise. He was later retconned and became part of the Kross Krewe. He also pops up in guest appearances with my newer characters. Parental Advisory - A tag team comprised of Johnny Homicide and Tommy Lobo. You probably know Tommy as TNT. The entirety of this team's run was essentially an obnoxious homage to DX circa 2006. Another case of a fed dying out too early. (I swear I’m not a kiss of death, these are all coincidental.) SNM - Before Mistress Lilith had her Knight, Mistress Natalya had Silas Nathaniel Mansfield, aka SNM. Repped by the Rubber Man from AHS, Silas was a super weird Goldust type in the ring. He never spoke, letting his Mistress and actions speak for him. (Sounds familiar…) J D Idol - Declan Black can vouch for this guy. My self insert character, the “me, but cranked to 11” version. Idol was a redneck whose promos mostly consisted of singing country songs with the lyrics altered to address the next match. And beer. Lots of beer. Rather than his own catchphrase, Idol’s running gag was having others ask “are you drunk?” Scott Knight and Lilith Lovecraft - Most of you know these two already. TNT - Told you he’d be back. Again, you know Tommy. Still debating ideas to bring him back. Ryan Addams - Kross’s son, another guy I’m brainstorming ideas for. Essentially Scott Addams stirred together with a healthy dose of Hayabusa and more eyeliner. Trevor Hale - A guy from Ryan’s training days who followed him while on Kross’s payroll. His move set was purposely filled with moves that got attention for being banned or too dangerous. I have more, but I seriously can't remember any at the moment. But I might be back with more. |

My run in the e-fed scene has been long...but consistent. I've only really been in a handful of feds, three until earlier this year when I started branching out a touch more in other directions. PARADOX, NGIW and here have been my three homes as far as traditional e-feds go. I don't count things like feds invented in video games because...well, those are tricky. Anyways, point being that in spite of being around for a long while I haven't had a lot of active characters in e-feds. I usually stuck to those I brought in with the occasional switch out. And, while I wouldn't say everything was a slam dunk, I think I can confidently say none were outright putrid. Though there were occasional misses... The Bright Spots Morio Aizawa - He was made eons ago when I was but a young boy and my brothers & our friends made the first incarnation of KAMIKAZE Pro on...the PSX? The N64? One of those, it's so hard to recall because all of us have made some incarnation of the promotion in at least one wrestling game since those days. He was a grumpy old man that while he was miserable for a lot of reasons, the march of time not slowing down for him & him feeling increasingly obsolete was a big one. He was a chair swinging, rockabilly listening, leather jacket wearing jerk that was bugged by anyone "happy" or "good" & wanted to expose them for being as ugly as he was on the inside. The name was a two folds thing, ten year old me thought it'd be funny if this hardass had a name similar to Mario. Ten year old me also thought it'd be hilarious if he was a something of a reference to A Boy Named Sue, a tough guy with a girl's name. My friend told me of a feminine Japanese name and so Morio got his name. Another thing he always had a chip on his shoulder about. Bringing him in, I intended to use him as something of a backdrop character to explore others. But in NGIW he became something of a favorite and never in my wildest dreams did I expect to have remotely the success with him I had. He wasn't a Chester Wynn, a hide Kitazawa or a Bloodbath McGrath, but he did good for an old man. It's been a pleasure to be able to explore him. Jessica Knight - This started off as a simple joke, what if a tiny woman acted like a mixture of Macho Man, viking/dwarf tropes and essentially Aquaman from Batman: The Brave & The Bold? Which to be honest was more or less the melting pot her father was, as I had made her the daughter of an old CAW of mine. I figured she'd be this silly, little dumb character that sat in her corner of NGIW and nobody would pay attention to because they knew chances were they were getting a free win if booked against her. Because naturally part of the punchline was that she lost. She arguably became one of my most popular characters, and I did a lot of weird & silly ideas with her. Had her do an angle that was ripped straight from the pages of the Back to the Future script. Had her lovingly nudge at the latest craze in indy wrestling & e-feds at the time, making everyone MMA themed. I did a lot of stuff with her I look back fondly on. Lioncock - Again started as a simple joke character, what if some lush, junkie doofus stole a lucha mask & wrestled in his tightie whities? Furthermore, what if the dude was a hoss but because he was such a coward he was actually kind of a wimp? His backstory came to me pretty fast to explain why he had his unique, and hateful, warped view of the world. Strangely he got a following for it too, some people genuinely felt bad for him that he was, as are some people, a product of his surroundings. But I always tried really hard to make it clear that those may be why he is how he is, but it does not justify it. That at some point it becomes an excuse and a crutch to do the easy thing, the thing he's always done rather than change for the better. And, boy did he fight changing, but through some interactions I never really suspected would happen he started chipping and flaking. A specific friendship he had may have been bizarre but it helped cause a conflict in him that allowed him to eventually make the steps to change. The Dim Spots Shitto - Wrong place, wrong time I'd argue for him. He didn't really jive how I thought he might and he stumbled big time in his short time in NGIW. Admittedly it probably didn't help matters that his sometimes tag team partner was so grossly eclipsing him as far as general public preference. He ultimately served one of the main reasons he was brought into NGIW and I like to think since that moment that changed his life & career forever he's had a few bright spots. The KAMIKAZE Pro Young Lions - Surrounded by Aizawa, Shitto, and Shinigami who were meant to act as mentors to them, I feel like a big misstep on my part was the young boys. I never quite fleshed Yusuke out as much as I wanted and much like with Shitto, Renji wasn't as liked as I thought he might be. Kisuke was probably the best received and his was mixed, not helped admittedly by his upward momentum being stifled by Aizawa's & Joe Stanton's presence on the roster. In the end, they had some mild success, and I still really enjoy what I did get to do with Renji & Kisuke, but nobody's clamoring for Renji's return. The Spectral Cabal - I guess I could list them here. I had fun playing them while I did and I still like the idea, and had some fun ideas bubbling for them. But they unfortunately were brought in at the tail end of NGIW's existence and were only active for the last monthish of its life. So very much a blink and you'd miss it run. Still, while no one's fault, they never gained much traction in terms of fans or memorable stories or accolades, so I'd wager they go here. |

I enjoyed all my characters for different reasons. Some of my Favorites "Big Country" Rick Nuller started in OW! as a fat farmer turned wrestler. Skell independently came up with the same gimmick with the character "Big" Bob DeFarma, so naturally they formed a tag team alliance as the Big Boys. He had sold the farm and started a restaurant chain with Big Bob by the time he ever made it to FIW. Naturally his character developed the most in FIW because OW! was roleplay-optional. Joe MacDoe was color commentator for OW! who was famous for not even focusing on the match half the time and going on gosh-darned profanity-free rants. He had trouble finding work after OW!, but he did get a brief stint in FIW Action News as a panelist in the Talking Heads Department. I've probably written more JM banter than any other character. (On Joe's coattails, honorable mention goes to Ralph Nugget, the FIW Action News anchor. Unlike Joe, Ralph was pretty damn sleazy. Like Joe, however, his gimmick was to basically roast members of the roster between segment clips. He was a lot of fun to let loose with because there was no competitive pressure.) Jefe Arturo is a character I created to add a little dynamic to the Mexican Migraine's promotions. I enjoyed bringing him in and demonstrating his demonic-level training regimens to try and hype up my characters a little without having them speak for themselves as much. He only worked with true luchas, which is why he eventually fell out with both the Mexican Migraine (because he wasn't a real Mexican) and El Cuervo Blanco (because he took off his mask), which brings us to... Ignacio Esposito, the Internet Explorer! (Also known as El Cuervo Blanco, while he was trying to "mask" his identity.) His IE gimmick broke the rules of writing a bit, by introducing comical hyperlinks into his speech as if he actually spoke them somehow. Nevertheless, he had successfully helped defend the Tag Team belts on multiple occasions. My only regrets are 1. I ran out of energy in the middle of the mafia evasion story arc, and 2. When you go back to read the archives most of the links are dead. ![]() Commissioner Antoine of OW! was basically me, but slightly less of an asshole (HA! Get it? Oh, of course not. He... he was a heel). He was mostly uncompetitive. He did, however, have a mini-feud with a wrestler named The Party Animal. I note this feud in particular because it resulted in me buying an actual hat with the character's logo on it for the handler, a condition of Ant's losing a match to TPA (which, if you don't know how OW! worked, was decided by CAW simulation, so it was mostly random). "Black Mage" Dexter Cloud, who I mention just because I liked the gimmick so much, but otherwise don't remember a whole lot about the sort of stuff he did. He was part of a gamers stable (which eventually became Rurik Krychek's posse). His gimmick in particular? LARPer. He was always dressed like the Final Fantasy Black Mage. His signature moves were supposed to be like spells and involved pyrotechnics as he performed them. He was otherwise a 98lb weakling who lived in his mother's basement. Some of my not-as favorites Wesley Crisco was a B-team commentator for OW! His gimmick was simple: a boring, low-volume golf commentator hired to cover pro-wrestling. Unfortunately this didn't translate well to text. I think the gimmick could have worked better if it were done via voice-overs. The Mexican Migraine was a goof character I came up with who represented everything I perceived of pro-wrestling before I ever became a fan: a loud, angry, muscle-bound man wearing a lucha libre mask. Very one-dimensional character. He did win the championship at Tyler's lucha fed, though, so I guess he wasn't that bad. |

Best characters: Pretty obvious. Nightmare - Need I say more? He was NEARLY a worst character because I basically transferred him from Shut Your Mouth to FIW without figuring out a gimmick for him, but eventually through trial and error (and error and error and error) he became my best and most respected character. When Wight helped me by telling me to read Batman, I took that and crossed it with Undertaker and blam. Has the unique distinction of being Wight's wife's favorite e-wrestler. Priest - He was here in FIW for a tick, but for those not familiar he was basically what happened when I thought of what would happen if a religious guy took on a supernatural, Undertaker type gimmick. Pretty popular and had a great feud with Wight/Mr. Giggles till I ran out of ideas with him. Decided to make Priest into a gimmick rather than a person after some discussions with Wight, and I'm continuing to develop that sight unseen. ![]() McConnaigh Bros - Good ol' Finn and Owen. Finn had a great run in NGIW, Owen not so much, but I really am proud of that creation and always have fun playing them. Erik Holland - Again, need I say more? Kinda made him as an NGIW homegrown character because I wanted Nightmare to stay retired and I needed a "hardcore guy" idea. He was also a great venting technique for a lot of the mental problems I was dealing with at the time. When i IRL took time away from my hobbies to go to therapy, so did he, and he returned as you see him now. El Valiente - I hit my stride with him immediately here, he basically is Lucha Libre turned up to 25 and made into a person. Really popular, almost Babyface of the Year, and generally liked by many handlers. Kristina Von Doom - Again almost a worst, this was a valet-type character when Nightmare was married to T-Bird; their adopted daughter. She became a wrestler and has lost one match since her debut, I'm running her as a Goldberg style destroyer in Rose City Wrestling and she's currently the champion there; also went undefeated for seven shows spanning four months. Worst Characters (That weren't a one time flash in the pan, as basically many of them were) Thunder - Inspired by Jerry Lynn, he had mild success but never really found an identity with him. Others Icon doesn't really count here as I haven't ran him long enough, but obviously he is based upon me and crossing me with The Rock and Will Ospreay. |

Let's see, I might as well add my stuff here before I go CD shopping: THE RICHLENS: Not much to add here other than Gustav has had way more gimmick changes than I can count, most of which really were the same thing but with different tweaks. OTHER STUFF: MARSHAL WESLEY COVENTRY: Gustav's twin (who somehow looked like a cross between Frank Mir and, though I didn't know it at the time, Roman Reigns). Started out as being forced into a mental hospital because of something he supposedly did but it turns out he supposedly went in because he was covering for Gustav nearly killing a drunk guy who tried to rape Shaelin. And then somehow I ended up backing away from that a bit and just having MWC go because he just wanted to do it for the lulz. Oh, and he was a multi-millionaire somehow and frequently hired mercenaries from Eastern Europe. Boy was I glad to write him out of e-fed existence last year. Odd thing is he had some success in WWCF/FAWA as he was Gustav's tag partner for his second tag title reign and was briefly TV Champion. NURSE MARY HARPER: MWC's handler and friend of the Richlens. Gave her Ritsuko Akagi for a picbase because reasons. She really did little of note other than be in a round robin tournament in the 101 Colony. Didn't do that bad but again, not much of note. THE EVANGELIANTS: VERY short-lived stable in which Shinji, Asuka, Rei, Misato, and Kaworu all somehow got sucked through numerous multiverses, resulting in them being mentally more well-balanced and somehow gaining antennae. Yeah. Though in hindsight it did lead to inspiring me to come up with my idea for the (still unwritten) Anime Gaming Wrestling Alliance fanfic. FORGOT THE NAMES: One fed I was in never ran a show but I had a tag team/manager combo with picbases of Sigurd "Satyr" Wongraven, Hank3, and Angela Gossow. They were supposed to be heels unhappy with bad music. What the fuck I was thinking, I have no idea. There was also, on the FAN boards, a WWE fed and a TNA one. The WWE one, I wrote for, in no order, Randy Orton, Mickie James, Rey Mysterio, G-Rilla (Brodus Clay), Booker T, Curt Hawkins, The Great Khali, The Miz, Brock Lesnar, Michelle McCool, Raquel Guerrero, and I can't remember who else. In TNA, I had MCMG and Scott Steiner. Both feds died for reason I mentioned in the Twitter chat and I will not get into that again here unless you guys REALLY want to know the sordid details. |

I haven't done this long enough to have successful/failed characters yet, but I have had thousands of ideas I've wanted to do. So I'll contribute that way. Stefan An eccentric glam male model obsessed with the 80's and drag. Think of a Tyler Breeze but in the 80's and dressing like a woman lol. I wanted to give him a tag partner that would've been the same gimmick, but a little more "manly". Reason they were lost: I honestly couldn't decide on a pic base lol. It was either going to be Young Anthony Kiedis(Red Hot Chili Peppers), Young Jean Pierre-Barda(Army of Lovers), or Pete Burns(Dead or Alive). Biff Banner A gym bro that would've been all about tossing flippy boys and suplexes. Lacking in brains, he made up in freakish strength. He would've been a former Olympic powerlifter. PB would've been Michael Elgin. Reason they were lost: I can't really write a meathead because I'm not one irl lol. Jessica the Jem An aerobics instructor ripped straight out of the 80's. Would've wrestled like Simon Dean and Bayley. Yes the name is a reference to Jem and The Holograms. PB would've been Delilah Doom. Reason they were lost: I already had Izzy and writing a punk girl was something I wanted to do more. |

Hoo boy. Where to begin. Michael Hayden -Easily started out as a worst because I was 13, just saw ROH for the first time and loved the Second City Saints. Hayden we originally "Bolt Bacana" alongside his partner EN Bunk. I think this lasted three months with Bunk getting a feud before I realized what I was doing was awful and tried to salvage it. He would become Mike Corral, getting a decent run before moving around efeds. The name would last for five years before I switched it to Michael Hayden, solely because I heard the last name and stole it. Ialways liked this idea of him searching for his "one moment", the thing that would define him and be his mark on pro wrestling. He was always upper midcard though until the 101 Colony, where by sheer will and luck he managed to win the title. I retired him after that since I thought I accomplished all that I could. Then I created Marilyn Lee Cross an figured she would be a trainee of his. This brought him back and he's been around ever since. The Dream - The Dream started as a joke, someone who we just super friendly and always tried to make friends. He would embrace the American Dream and try to get the fans on his side. I never wrote him as a heel (aside from when I did the Dream vs. Dream thing in NGIW) because I wanted him to be a comedy character and I never envisioned him as a bad guy. Funny enough, I talked to Lita about a scenario where Dream would join the Coulter Crew while still being a good guy. I imagined scenarios where Dream would unknowingly assist Eversol or Alexander, or perhaps accidentally hit someone while going for a high five. Could've been fun. Marilyn Lee Cross - if memory serves, I created Marilyn so that she could flirt with Caleb and be a super fan of The Dream. I think we discussed this in a chat, and from there I kind of felt obligated to create the character and try to play it off. She did have some success, and she's found new life on Twitter in other feds, but I always feel bad that I didn't do more for her in FIW. I'm also sad we never really got to give a conclusion to the Caleb and Marilyn story, but maybe we'll do that one day. I tried to make her a reoccuring character recently, but aside from a one-shot she never came back. Seto Uchiha - Here's a guy I didn't think would achieve a lot. Seto was created as a foil, someone to be Hayden's respected rival. Dude has has convoluted backstory that was largely retconned into the guy he is now, which is for the best. I wanted him to try and be a playboy character, but after one interaction with Suri it felt like something to really explore. I'm happy I worked with Lita and really developed the relationship between the two, as I think they needed each other. I've always said I like to think that the two of them are together in Sendai, living a peaceful life. Maybe he wrestled on occasion, but he's a family man first and foremost now. The Others (aka Don't Let Hayden Get On Twitter) Romeo Black - Hayden and Dream are no high flyers, so I decided to make one. He's doing alright in his fed, and somehow has a girlfriend. Good for him. The Invisible Man - Ever since I created Limitless, I've wanted to tell the story of The Invisible Man. Long story short, aformer student of Hayden'swho left Limitless because I believes I never got a chance to succeed. He was passed over in favor of MLC and Romeo and others, free angry and resentful, and has I put for Hayden. For now he's in another fed, but I'd love to tell this story either here in FIW or just in general. Battleborn, Shoot Nation - Two seperate tag teams. I honestly created them so I could use the picbases, but it seems to have worked out alright. Battleborn are tag champs and Shoot Nation do KAMIKAZE Pro tours. Koji Uchiha - My shameless ripoff of Hikou and Captain Tremendous. I liked the idea of Seto being the more reserved while Koji is loud and brash, someone who wants to fight and yell and acts superior. Sadly I introduced Hayden in NeonGIW right after I brought in Koji, so Hayden stole that shine. Ashley Cross - The female Koji, really. She made a list of women she'd like to wrestle to help differentiate her a bit. Not much more to say. "The GOAT" Jake Archer - A favorite of mine, really. He's just an arrogant prick who thinks he's the best (THE BEST THE BEST THE BEST). He's basically your local Indy spotmonkey with too much attention given to him. Wighty actually gave me one of his signature moves, the Discus Discus. He spins in a circle. It's pretty rad. The Rest EN Bunk became Hayden's stepbrother Chad Michaels. Daniel Greystone was in NeonGIW for all of a week. There was the short-lived DJ KZ and Omega Meadows. The Jokester was short-lived as well and may have stopped Dream from competing for the Midway or RCR belts. Maybe he gave Dream some direction. Who knows. I got a trainee character I'm working on named Tommy Drake. Bad name but I'm stuck with for now. I had a character named Matthew "Twizted" Clark who did alright for himself for a brief period of time. He and his cousin Chris Matthews were named the Cousins In Arms, or CIA. That.... did not go well. Twozted floundered after that while Matthews was dropped completely. Marcus "Stylez" Saxton had a blood feud with a guy and fought another in an actual airplane. Faded into obscurity after that. I also played as... JTG, Leonardo Spanky/The Brian Kendrick, Low-Ki, Colt Cabana, Richie Steamboat, AJ Lee, Jack Swagger and Zack Ryder as "Radio America", Alex Koslov, Alex Shelley, D'Angelo Dinero, Christopher Daniels, Chris Sabin, Taylor Wilde, Christina Von Eerie, Hamada, Roman Reigns, Daniel Bryan, Chris Hero, Claudio Castagnoli, Austin Aries, and Cheerleader Melissa. Good times. |

I’ve wanted to find the time to reply to this topic all week, but alas other duties have taken up my time. I’m really enjoying the Football Manager writing, I’ve just noticed one of my articles has now been read 2735 times, which is a little crazy. The Good My most successful character has been Clay ‘Chainsaw’ Krueger by a country mile. There have been some weak moments for him, I did attempt to change his gimmick on some occasions but like a good piece of elastic he returned back to what he originally was, which was somebody who gave due credit and looked for little edges, the superior intellect and the flexibility. He lost more than he should, mostly because I requested them to help other people. I’m proud of his Dual Crown reigns but more proud that he and by extension I was seen as a safe pair of hands to be put in that position. I could pick him up again in a heartbeat and hear his voice but in truth there’s very little left to challenge him. He’s been Dual Crown Champion, record holding tag team champion, done it all really. Not ever winning the FSC with him was a regret but to be fair he was rarely around that title. My first ever FIW character was The Dark Angel/Dimmu Borgir. I include him in the ‘good’ stakes because in many ways he set the early tone for my association with FIW and I do have a desire to bring him back one day for one last real run. Originally he was the supernatural character we’d all want to portray, in many ways based on Undertaker vs. Kane in 98. What could a character do? Where is the line? Magicians go off the stage on one side and come back in the middle of the audience a moment later. We’ve all seen WWE do angles where somebody’s voice is taken over. I enjoy writing this grizzled veteran. The Bad I shouldn’t really include Scope because he is new and has time to come good but I do feel there’s a lot of work to do. In my mind he’s like a character from a Robert Ludlum novel, he’s got a big backstory to draw from and the strange things he does are little kinks about him. The voice doesn’t come easy, he’s got a way to go yet. Xenia I kind of feel bad for more than anything else. I think she would be thriving in this new FIW level playing field without the Hellcats Championship, the problem with her is that she often relied upon others for her dialogue and that did hamstring her. The best moment for her was that few weeks she spent between Crystal and Mercedes as a troublemaker, which does as somebody who was more about others than herself. The Ugly Nikita was designed to fill a void in the Hellcats division and outside a few decent talks with Jo’s Blink character, she pretty much tanked. I can’t think of anything that she did well and I say that in the knowledge that her feud with Anna was voted either first or second in the feud of the year, which speaks alarmingly for how bad that year was all around. Even a stint with Clay (as Hal Moore) couldn’t save her. Utterly anonymous in my memories. I always had a soft spot for Lara Toni but she represents one of my lowest ebbs in efedding. I don’t even remember how it happened or if I gave my permission for Will to take over her as she was dating one of his characters, she just sort of got away from me. It was sad because before that she started really well, was Hellcat Champion briefly, then went off a cliff. When she lost the Hellcat title, there was nothing more I could have done in terms of roleplaying her, she had peaked and that it. She’d never get back to that level. |

I was recently reminded of another character who never got off the ground. I was part of a board that hosted many feds, and a new fedhead asked me to join his latest project. The primary focus of the fed was supposed to be a "young blood vs old guard" storyline. One guy had made a wrestler by the name of Lex Logan, a muscular blond bodybuilding enthusiast. So I joined as his son, Link Logan, repped by Nick Hogan. We had plotted out plenty of bits revolving around Lex's reality show, Living La Vida Logan. Link's moveset was supposed to expand as he added things like "Manly Man" Sandy Ravage's elbow drop. This would add to a repertoire of moves whose names referenced his street racing hobby, including his Head On Collision and Vehicular Manslaughter. Trademark spot was wildly running around the ring until he could hit a schoolboy. I called it Logan's Run. |
