Official stuff out of the way first.

Matches: Rob, Lita & Craig
Promos: Lita, Steve, Marc, Wight, Hayden, Craig, Bleak, and the one other person I always end up forgetting.

Wow. What a effin' PPV.

I already talked about the roleplays and how awesome they were. Congratulations to all the winners and especially the new Champions. Toughest judging assignment ever. Every match apart from the squashes went to a split decision, including two that I forgot to pass on were pre-determined and two of them were 2-2 so I had to make a decision.

As mentioned on the PPV I have tried to reward as many of the Winners Choice BR participants as possible who were mentioned in judging (I'd asked for the top three) but I didn't get a match choice through from Olivia Areano, so I guessed.

Some roster changes obviously will happen. Thank you to those who are departing.

Won't go into a lot because I'll do a match-by-match breakdown tomorrow, new card will be up shortly and we go from there with new stories, new Champions and new stories.

PPV feedback usually is the most contentious topic of the two month cycle, so have it guys. Thoughts?

All I gotta' say is THANK YOU!

FIW has been an awesome place to call home for a year straight. When I first decided to do "One Last Run," I had no clue FIW would be as competitive as it is. Everyone here does their part and then some. This was the best way for me to have gone out, too. I'm glad I got the "respect" angle, as well as the "Kicking and Screaming" that I always wanted.

Thanks to Sticky for being one TOUGH son of a bitch for a whole year! I can't thank you enough for being by far the most competitive I've faced. I have had a ton of memories in my however many years of doing this, and proud to say the cherry on top was my feud with Richlen.

I wish you all the absolute best going forward, and will definitely pop my head in from time to time. Who knows, maybe FIW will need a Prophecy to appear here and there ;)

Thanks everyone!

Awesome pay-per-view. Everyone stepped up and I am damn proud to be associated with this Fed. Once again, all the parts and pieces moved together in unison to form a wicked machine. Everyone here is SO invaluable. It doesn't matter who won or who lost I want you all to bask in your validity and appreciate yourselves. Now onto the feedback.

Crystal, I cannot tell you how freaking proud I am for you winning that Battle Royal. In just such a short period of time you went from being a bit down to winning a great match. Your rp's have grown in scope and weight every week. The ones for the pay-per-view were awesome with the use of pictures and structure. You won against some of the finest people we have and I am happy for you. Olivia, you were right there as well as Clay was and you both should be commended. So should everyone else. I want to thank Craig for working with me as well. It really brought out more from Father Pike and I am better because of it.

Loved seeing that unrelenting ferocity from Xenia at the end of the match. Something like that always adds another dimension to a character.

Cody, you are the first ever Rising Champion and I congratulate you. That name means a lot to me. If it wasn't for the original Rising that Sam started in 2003 I wouldn't have had a gateway here. It also introduced another awesome player at the time named Kailey Lane. You won and you worked hard for it. I hope you have a long and fruitful run as champion.

The Fighting Spirit title match was epic and both men should be proud. This feud has been one of the most memorable I can remember and the scope of competition amazing. You guys have raised the bar and I look forward to see what comes down the road for both of you.

The Lords Of Salem. Tag-Team Champions. Once again Wight reaches into his endless creative pool and gives us yet another memorable group. I dare say these characters are some of the best he has brought to life and to be honest maybe my favorites. Especially Jericho Cruz who has been, IMHO, the man to watch these past weeks. I hope these guys go a long way and we get to see what else lurks in the darkness involving them.

Is there a more steady winner in FIW than Bisenshi? I love everything about her and have since I came back into action. The way she is written totally brings her to life and I get a kick out of her personality! I think it's going to be a while before anyone can take her title.

I am going to miss Mad Dawg terribly. When I re-registered here in 2014 as Rob Storm I think Dawg was the first to welcome me. He was also one of the main reasons the fed was still going at that time. He has had his hands in just about everything here and that has only made it better. The character of Mad Dawg has been the most unstoppable force I can remember since the days of Ragin. I am going to miss you, good sir.

I am not as familiar with Nick but your writing and matches have been extraordinary. I am sorry I did not get the opportunity to get to know you better. Your talents are going to leave a unique hole here that cannot be filled. I wish you nothing but the best.

I guess that's all I have to say. Another epic show and everyone should be proud of themselves. Kudos to all and congratulations to all the winners!

I think this was a spectacular show. I don't know where to begin or end. I read a bit more than I usually do and I really liked the choices made with the battle royale, handing out a bunch of those matches in spite of the actual conclusion. Classy touch and very encouraging.

I had a lot of fun working with Freakshow, antagonizing Kira Izumi on twitter, and building the complicated relationships between The Brick Sharks and The Lords of Salem. Speaking of which, stupid me forgot to take Trianna out of their entrance. I knew I had something else I was supposed to do... rats. I'll try to remember to fix in tonight.

I honestly am surprised I won. The Brick Sharks have been only slightly easier to take down than Sakura, and I went with off-the-wall, super-inside, reference-laden, personal storyline stuff as opposed to the typical "you suck and here's why" promos full of code, images, and Zalgo text. So... thanks, judges. I'd love some feedback because I want to know exactly what was so "right" about what I did, that way I don't focus on the less-popular stuff when trying to replicate this bottled lightning in the future. Don't feel like you have to PM me personally or speak out in this thread; Craig can handle that. I know how important the anonymity of the judges is (firsthand, as many of you recall) and I don't wanna break that.

Great show, great promos. I'm so glad Freakshow did well, so glad Crystal Blake won, AMAZED and so proud that Sakura retained, and I'm sorry to see all who are leaving make their exit. It's been a ride.

This show was awesome. The Battle Royale had me reading with bated breath, the match between Eversol and Dream was amazeballs, and I actually read every single match. The Career vs. Crew match had me on the edge of my seat, and I haven't even been here for that history.

I am humbled and excited by the chance to get a shot at a title right off the bat even though I lost, and I'm super stoked Crystal won. The work put into those promos was evident, and it was a lot of fun responding to some of the back and forth.

Thank you all for the support. I'm both excited on the win as well as Crystal's future. Rather upbeat, actually. My apologies, however, on the abrupt absence in the middle of the RP period but a bunch of other things were piling up. Also, gonna be honest and say a lot of what Crystal was saying about the porn industry...is mostly assumption based. lol Stuff that wasn't I got from a documentary series called Pornucopia. A good series for those interested in the background of the genre.

The match itself was a fun read. I wasn't certain who'd come out the winner though when Freakshow and Pike were eliminated I had an inkling of hope. Sorry to Craig there, though the tandem between father and son had me believe Clay was going to "steal" it. :P That isn't to say no one else did a good job, it's just they were my odds on favorites going into it.

Always amazed at the speed in which shows are up. Honestly, I didn't think a ppv would be up on time but...here I am feedbacking it on the scheduled day. Good job to the writers and staff on that. :)

I wanna start by thanking Craig for all the work he put into this event and getting it up on time. You wrote so many matches and they were all amazing. I really hope you aren't going to burn yourself out with all that you put in for us.

Craig did an amazing job putting the FIW Championship match over not just in the build to the event but at this actual event. I was surprised but thoroughly enjoyed to see the former International and Dual Crown Champions weighing in on the impending unification of the titles. And thanks to Wight for having Zombie Black say such wonderful things about Johnny. That was really sweet!

I am beyond thrilled and amazed and grateful and now exhausted to see Johnny Amazing become the top champion in FIW. When I brought him back two years ago it was precisely to see if I could accomplish this. I accomplished so many great things during my time in NGIW and Wight gave me some of my greatest e-fedding memories there, but when it came to FIW I feel like I never really got the chance to see what I was capable of accomplishing here. Kennedy's win for the Dual Crown was the first time in e-fedding that I ever experienced the gratification that comes with being rewarded by your peers for your work and it ended so soon for me because I had to take over as the fedhead and didn't feel right keeping the title. But since then I've never quite had that here in FIW (sans the incredible time I had building the Hellcats Division with so many great roleplayers like Jo, Wiggs, and Craig). To come back and really have a character work his way up that ladder and really have that journey back to this moment is something I can't even put into words right now. Thank you to anyone who has enjoyed what I've done with Johnny at any point in his career. Thank you to whoever gave judging thoughts in favor of him winning. Thank you to Matt for giving me an incredible RP experience against Darian Gray, one of the absolute best heels I've ever worked against. And thank you to Craig for writing an insane match and making Johnny look like an absolute superstar.

Well, that sappiness is all out of the way! Sorry! Lol.

Thanks to Rob for writing the pre-show matches for us. They were wonderfully succinct and it was nice seeing our new characters get some action at the event.

The battle royal was all kinds of insanity and Craig did an incredible job of putting over so many characters, and rightfully so. Everyone who made an effort in this battle royal did so great. It sounds corny, but I really appreciate the effort and attention that people gave to this contest. I know that sometimes people see these catch-all matches as throwaways, but the roleplayers really made this match stand out as something important and to be seen. Not to hurt anyone's feelings (because I stand by my statement that everyone who showed for this did great) but Clay Krueger and Freakshow were the stand-outs to me. Really great characters that hit the mark for me. Crystal Blake and Father Jakob Pike were other notable performances.

Thanks to Hayden for working with me for the Marilyn/Brittany segment backstage. Michael Hayden is such an intimidating presence for some reason that I can't quite put my finger on. Marilyn is so freaking loveable and adorable. I really want her and Brittany in a random Hellcats Tag Match together.

I almost took that Xenia Handicap match because it would have been so fun to write, but Craig did a much better job with that I would have. And I really enjoy the way Xenia is getting under April's skin with her backstage attitude. She has the makings to be a tremendous heel in the division.

The Rising Championship was such a tough call. Adam is just fantastic at everything he does. Black Tom may not be my favorite character that Adam writes, but that is in no way an insult to the character. Even an Adam character you're not completely enamored with is formidable competition to someone else's really good character. That's what happened here. I actually sided with Black Tom. If Cody had been more prominent earlier in the cycle, it might have edged my decision the other way. But ultimately that doesn't matter because there were others that really enjoyed Cody this cycle and based on what T put out there I can't fault that. So definite congratulations to Cody on being the first ever Rising Champion.

I've had so much fun working with Bleak for the past few months and I'm glad he hasn't told me to go away yet. Lol. Stephen J. Eversol has been one of my favorite characters ever since his NGIW days and it's great to be working with him. Both promos Bleak and I did together were a lot of fun and I can't wait to see where things go from here.

I hope Sticky, Adam, and Hayden enjoy what I did with the Hellcats DeadlockeD semi final matches. I tried to make all four girls look great since this series proved these four are the best of the best at the moment. Anyone of them could realistically prove a challenge to Sakura right now and I wanted that conveyed. Shaelin vs. Helena was a nice brawl that I felt really showed off Shaelin's no-nonsense attitude and Helena's incredibly quirky personality of being one bad bitch but definitely off her rocker. Marilyn vs. Brittany was a different pace altogether and I hope Hayden was OK with me writing Marilyn the way that I did. I really enjoy her as this plucky underdog that lives far too much in her head and that being her biggest downfall in the ring. When I got the news Brittany was winning, I immediately knew that I had to show Marilyn actually beating herself by overthinking this encounter due to the whispers that Brittany doesn't really respect her. It made for such a great story and I felt a really good match.

Really sad that we're losing Nick Riot. It's hard to believe he's only been here a year. Can that be right? I can't really remember ReVolt without Nick Riot there. He's been a great presence (both the character and the handler) and I love that he went out in a blaze of glory against the man I associate him with the most - Gus Richlen. Hard to believe this feud is finally over for good.

The Fighting Spirit title match was probably my favorite match that I wrote. Craig pitched the idea early on that Eversol should refuse Kim in his corner and the Dream should bring her out alongside him. Then Hayden pitched the fantastic idea of Dragon dressed up as the Dream for a swerve moment. I felt like they both added so much to the match and really made it easy to write this one. I enjoyed writing Dream's more comedy side and that it made the match stand out as something different. I particularly loved (and hope I accomplished it) that Dream's zany quirks worked so well as his personal form of retribution on Eversol. That's what I enjoy about the character. Yes, he's a comedy character but just because the stuff he does it funny doesn't mean he's not sticking it to an enemy in the process. I hope the finish came off well with Dream offering a handful of $20 bills in exchange for getting the OK from the ref to use the Lioncock but it ending up being his downfall with Kim finally "turning" on him.

A tad bummed about the tag title match. I really enjoy the Brick Sharks and having them as great tag team champions has been a huge sense of pride for me for a while now. I figured their days were numbered though as Wight and Adam have created some incredible tag teams recently. Kris Hansel and Jericho Cruz is hands down two of the best characters currently in FIW and it was really a toss up to me on who was going to be the one to lead their team into being the next champs. Congrats to Wight. I know you've had your doubts about Jericho and Zombie and Trianna. Basically, I love Jericho because I'm still learning new things about him all the time. I was expecting this black hearted character that would use people to get his way, but he's not that at all. But he's not a good guy either, otherwise he wouldn't be with Beezlebob. That's such a lovely shade of gray that I'm enjoying watching be created.

Last Hellcat Standing was a lot of fun to write. I knew when Craig asked if I wanted to write two endings or get the result that Brittany wasn't winning. It's the same thing that was posed to me when Sakura and Brittany met at Summer of Sin. So even though I didn't really know the result, I suspected and was more than a bit saddened that Brittany may never actually become Hellcats Champion at this point. However, I adore Helena and Adam is killing it with her. For anyone curious, the two endings I wrote were very similar. Whoever won was going to win by just beating the count.

I said my farewells to Marc in PM before the show as I knew how this was ending, but that doesn't make it any sadder. Marc was the GM when I came back here and he helped create a great experience for me. For those unaware, I had been in FIW for the longest time but some stuff went down and I left this place behind for a very long time. To come back, not even really know Marc, and be accepted and given an opportunity to build characters the way I did was so amazing after all that time gone. I had the best time any time my characters worked alongside Mad Dawg and I'm really gonna miss seeing the character around here, but more than that I'm going to miss Marc being around here.

Also! NATHANIEL ALEXANDER! Like with Eversol, Nathaniel has been one of my favorite characters since his NGIW days. I'm so honored that these two characters are associated with Kim Coulter and I feel like they all have an incredible dynamic together. I talked briefly with Nate about this opportunity and I didn't get confirmation on whether this is a return but I assume it is... probably because I hope it is!

I really struggled with the Hellcats Championship match. I just don't really know how to write Sakura in the ring. I hope Dai enjoyed it. I had a lot of fun dragging April out for this opportunity and I hope Dai had fun with it or was at least able to get Sakura somewhere with this. I hated the idea of Sakura being on the sidelines while the other girls fought over her.

And I think that's everything. It's great to see so much feedback building up a lot of other handlers. You guys rock!

Time for some proper feedback after last night's brief post.

Pre-Show Matches
Thanks to Rob for taking these and getting them in early in plenty of time. For some reason when I tried to edit in the name of Ninja Blood’s finisher (the Japanese part), it errored. Don’t know if I did something wrong there. Welcome to the new characters. In a story akin to one of the Hangover films, I could have sworn both Ninja Blood's were female. I had no idea one was a bloke.

Winners Choice Battle Royal
Love writing matches like these, most people don’t because there’s so many characters to keep track of and ensure that everybody gets a fair shake. In judging I asked for the top three and with the exception of Erik Holland (who was late to the party), everybody who roleplayed placed on somebody’s card. That’s why everybody has been rewarded in their own way, some with a slot in this week’s main event, others with the matches close to what they requested. Didn’t get anything from Olivia Areano so had to select something vaguely suitable. With Will, I suggest early roleplays. I don’t know when sickness came on but the long rp window was open well before and getting a ‘banker’ up can help when life takes over.

Marilyn/Brittany/Hayden Promo
I really like promos like this that just tie up what has been happening in the build-up. Matches take a different slant following something like this, which makes it more important than first considered really. The development of Marilyn has been a particular highlight and Brittany is always a quality character. I don’t know a lot about Michael Hayden, other than the FIW stuff I’ve seen. He comes off to me like the character I wanted Clay to become a couple of years ago, only better written.

Hellcats Handicap & April Interview
Like that this segues into each other, I’ve only really scratched the surface with Xenia, there’s a long way to go with her.

Rising Championship
This was the toughest one to call of the entire show. It was a 2-2 split in judging so I used the same method I used on the Fighting Spirit match (as explained later). I personally went for Cody, in his last rp if he hadn’t have addressed Black Tom’s comments and done it in a way in keeping with the character, I would have gone the other way. The Rising title is designed to replace the FSC at the lower end of the card but as Wight has analysed superbly and I think I’ve mentioned before, the FSC served three masters - genuine lower card, new characters and veterans trying out somebody new. The Rising title will serve the first two of those categories as they seem to mix well, the veterans should really be coming in at a slightly higher level and the FSC should be above that in the midcard before the move up to FIW Championship contention. Not everything needs to be a title feud, the best feuds often aren’t but we have (and I’m as guilty as anybody) seemed to focus around titles. Black Tom is a bit of outlier because he was a late replacement following some issues on ReVolt.

Eversol/Kim Promo
I’ve taken some not criticism but questions to explain why I’m not a massive fan of Eversol compared to others, who clearly are. I think this promo kind of represents why but then afterwards I am going to contradict myself. I get the impression Eversol needs other characters around him and tends to gravitate to others. It’s been explained to me that I missed a very important element of his storyline where he went home alone and wallowed, which sort of explains his surrounding himself with people. If that’s the case, slap me in the face with it on his bio. If you look at Johnny Amazing’s bio, Lita periodically updates it with recent events and that helps me to pluck things from it to mention in matches etc. In fact, I’ll address that in another topic. The part where I’ll contradict myself is that the interaction with others is extremely good and the experience of doing that a lot, shows.

DeadlockeD Semis& Finale
Another two tough matches to call. Adam has been on fire with Helena ever since returning her to FIW and that really says a lot about Hayden and Marilyn last week on ReVolt. At the time she rejoined the Coulter Crew I kinda questioned whether it was necessary but more and more I think I was out of line thinking that. Helena would be doing well, but as well? I have my doubts. Sticky felt a bit forced in this one, I know he had some problems getting stuff down and that left Shaelin a bit open to Helena’s retort. Brittany vs. Marilyn was a real toss up for me, the increasing involvement of Michael Hayden adds to Marilyn’s character and Brittany was as solid as ever. Lita sets a very high standard with Brittany that doesn’t really have an off-week and it takes a big effort and quality to beat her. In terms of the series in general, the majority of it has been positive and I hope fun, some notable issues with the Champion that I perhaps should have really considered at the start and it didn’t work out for Crys. The matches as they have been through the series were brilliantly written by Lita.

3 Stages of Hell
Unfortunately Sticky wasn’t able to write this one so I hope I’ve done some sort of justice to the angle. Maybe I should have pushed for a lesser stip for the third fall, I think probably a steel cage would have served the purpose but it was Sticky & Nick’s angle and I don’t like changing plans when somebody has come forward with a storyline. Sad to see Nick go, it has been on the cards for quite a while now and he was gracious to extend his time with us to get to this PPV, thank you.

Fighting Spirit Championship
Hayden seems to PM ideas through late in the day and disappear, send them early in the cycle! With PPV’s I’ll try to get something down early usually 5 days before the event so there’s a start made. Did manage to include it somewhere, there seems to be plenty of ideas around Dream and that’s a big positive. This was another 2-2 split, which shows the competitiveness and different judging liking different things. It was either ask another judge and somebody who maybe didn’t want to or wasn’t comfortable or employ a method I’ve used I think once before, count myself as a 1.5 and take responsibility. I’d chosen Eversol and therefore he won in a close 2.5-2. I then did the same thing with the Rising title so at least we were consistent on how draws were dealt with.

Tag Team Championships
There’s so much material around these six and that it was just easy to write. Paris’ attempts to gain parity, the monster Zombie Black, Jericho and Harley and how that affects Caleb. Fantastically written roleplays and congratulations to the new champs.

Johnny Amazing/Eversol Promo
I’ve just realised that this is probably in the wrong place, considering it mentions running along for Eversol’s match, my apologies.

Falls Count Anywhere
Steve was unable to write this one so hopefully it’s done both Jack Jr. and Mad Dawg justice. When I was doing a google maps search of the arena I saw the baseball stadium and had to end up there at some point. It did make it a challenge for then coming back for Mad Dawg’s speech but hopefully it worked out. Steve is taking a hiatus, hence why we looked at an ‘insurance policy’ for Kim and obviously couldn’t have Mad Dawg win, knowing that Marc was leaving. Thank you to Marc for all he’s done for the fed in-character and especially out of character. As fun as this job looks, it’s not easy and he did a fantastic job.

Hellcats Championship
This match probably had the ‘worst’ or least build-up of all matches on the main card. I’m delighted with the way it turned out and Lita as usual produces a fantastic match for us all to enjoy. I haven’t seen any highlights of Mickie James vs. Asuka but if it’s anywhere near April vs. Sakura then it’ll be worth a watch. Onwards to Nensai Senjou for Sakura and her new challenger.

FIW Championship
I tried putting together a ‘Championship Debate’ rp topic but I guess Matt didn’t want to participate for whatever reason, as I had a lot of comments back from Wight and Steve etc. I wanted to use them and hence the little promo before the match. It was always going to be a hard choice between the two and there’s so much still to play out between them. Another split decision, so it wasn’t unanimous but we do have our first ever FIW Champion. Having taken over from Wight and this was one of his ideas, I’m glad it was able to happen. It is the result of such good roleplayers holding the FSC and International that combining the titles was necessary and it’s nice for all involved to be a part of that history making moment. The match itself, probably goes too back-and-forth, not enough selling by these boys for my liking and the finish was something a bit different, ladder matches can get a bit anticlimactic if one guy is down at ringside and the other retrieves the belt so the idea to keep it going until they hit the mat came out of that. The bit with Eversol really tied in nicely to their promo earlier. Congratulations to the first ever FIW Champion.

Just a few other random notes. Thank you as always to Lita for her graphics. We have new Championship belts, I’ll make a quick RP topic for those who didn’t get new ones at Deadlock to collect theirs. Thank you to whoever updated the title histories. Please forward any storyline ideas through. I only have a basic idea about a few characters for Nensai Senjou so discussions are welcome.

I wonder about the next PPV, we did have too many matches on the card and I’m led to then consider a small ReVolt broadcast the day before the PPV containing people who didn’t make it, rather than add as many people onto the main card as possible. The Winners Choice match was a fun addition but it’s probably not a concept to repeat every PPV. I don't know if that's maybe a response to 2 matches being added to my workload but it might make sense. In terms of the upcoming schedule we have three ReVolt broadcasts before the Grand Prix, then Hardcore Hangover, then another ReVolt before Nensai Senjou at the start of February. As part of that we’ll bring out the FIW Awards 2016 and the Hall of Fame inductions.

Thanks to everybody once again for your contribution to this event, I’m very proud of what we’ve all achieved together.

😢😢😢😢😢😢


I didn't get a chance to fully read the show sisince I was at Universal Studios (impromptu date), but what I did read was wonderfully writing. Once again, my sincerest gratitude to the writing staff for putting on another show.

I'd also like to thank everyone for the kind words about Michael Hayden. He's actually my longest-tenured character, so I'm glad to bring him into FIW and explore another side to the character after my ill-fated attempt in the old NGIW. His mentor role with Marilyn and possibly Dragon has me excited for the future.

Speaking of Marilyn, glad to see her having an amazing showing in the semi finals. Brittany is a tough opponent, but there were plenty of times I honestly thought I pulled it off and would co to the finals. If anyone watched the Cruiserweight Classic this summer, it reminded me a lot of Cedric Alexander vs. Kota Ibushi. You had an idea of who would win before the match, but the underdog did so much that you believed the upset could happen. I never really imagined Marilyn would get to the semis, so I'm eager to see how she goes forward now that I've seemed to find her character.

The Dream..... man. First, let me thank Bleak for bringing out the best in me this week. I think this week really showed that Dream is more than a comedy character, he's a three-dimensional character. Knowing that the result was close is both a little heartbreaking (so close yet so far) and has me optimistic (it was close, one more vote would've changed things). I get the feeling that one more promo might have changed things, but it's best not to dwell on it too much. We both said what we needed to, and it was was great match. Congrats to Bleak for the victory.

As for the match, I was pleasantly surprised that Kim came down with Dream to start. I also appreciate that the comedy aspect of Dream was kept, including his strange relationship with Lester. It was a nice contrast to Eversol's seriousness, which once again I thank Lita:a match writing ability for. I may need to retire that $20 gag, poor Dream paid a lot to lose. He also found out Kim's true feelings, so I'm curious to see how things go from there. I'm eager to see where the story goes now, which may be more rewarding.

Many thanks to Nick Riot and Mad Dawg for their contributions to FIW. I'm sad to see both of you go, even though i didn't know you for long. Both of you have some great, and given that I've promoed against both of you before, I can say that you both are talented writers.

Yay Crystal Blake! I like this character so I'm glad she won.

Eager to see where Gus goes after this big win. Maybe FSC?

Brick Sharks 😢😢😢

I'm fearful of the day Marilyn takes on Bisenshi Sakura. Very fearful.

And MY BOY JOHNNY AMAZING with a fantastic win. That main event was something to behold and neither person has anything to regret. Dank fine work all around.

I agree, I got one up this morning that I am really pleased with. As many of you that are involved with me outside of fedding know, I have a pretty busy life between weird schedules at work and a girlfriend that got serious quick, so that on top of coming down with a cold kind of kicked my ass around Deadlock season. I think Craig is right in that my secret is probably gonna be RPing as early as possible to keep life from getting in the way.

I loved the show by the way. I think it is a great idea to combine the Dual Crown and International into one belt. Means I have to update my belts on 2k17, but I think it's a great idea anyway as my feeling was, FIW got a little overloaded with how many title belts were on the horizon. The right person won the match, too, as much as I like Darian Gray, and I think it presents a unique opportunity with Johnny Amazing being an old rival of Holland's. I'd like to see where that goes.

The Rising championship I don't know much about, but I hope it is as hotly contested as the FSC. Sorry to see Mad Dawg go, too, but it was a great match anyway so I'd enjoy going out like that if it was me.

I may need to retire that $20 gag, poor Dream paid a lot to lose.

Could always do a promo where Riggs is backstage counting all that dough and Dream comes by to take it back. He can even end by giving him back one $20 since he did "help" him nail the Hit From the Bong, but he never got to do the Lioncock on Eversol.

What a hell of a show! Big props again to Craig for the effort that he puts forth on a daily basis. This place has been such a blast since coming back and Craig is a huge part of that. This event was no exception and it seems like each event just gets better and better. The opening with Orion in the ring reminded me of Triple H in the ring at that Takeover special some time back. Well done. I also liked being involved in the championship reflection segment. I was honored to have been asked to contribute to it.

Of course the level of talent here in FIW is another huge part of why it's been so much fun. It's been awesome as of late working so closely with Lita with Brittany and Eversol, Kim and Eversol and even Eversol and Johnny for the promo on the show.

First off a huge congrats to Lita on Johnny Amazing becoming FIW Champion! I've loved that character ever since she brought him in years ago and am so glad to see him at the pinnacle of FIW. The match of course was a joy to read. The inclusion of Eversol and Brittany at ringside was a nice little touch there and a total surprise to see. The spot where Johnny pulls himself out of the rubble was awesome, showing how much he wanted to win. Good stuff.

It's sad that we're going to be losing a few people. I hope that all of them will come back at some point or at least pop in now and then to say hi. Nick has been a great character and I wish that he wasn't leaving just yet. He and Richlen had a damn blood feud that should never end. Mad Dawg has been another great character that I also just hate to see leave but more importantly I'll just miss Marc. I never got my Eversol/Mad Dawg feud that we could have definitely had fun with. So hopefully that might happen one day. And if Mad Dawg doesn't return, I'm glad he reached the top of the mountain, so to speak at least once.

Sad to see Brittany not going onto face Sakura but I'm very interested to see Helena get her shot. That should be a lot of fun to see in the next few months.

Nathaniel is back! As we lose a few people I'm glad that Nathaniel is returning to us as it's going to cause a ton of chaos that's always fun to see play out.

Hayden, right back at you. You pushed me to my absolute limit this week. I never felt comfortable the entire week cause each time I did an RP you came back with absolute fire. Dream is such a likable character that I had make Eversol just be a complete piece of shit (even more so) to generate any type of heat. I'm incredibly happy to be able to have pulled out the win and want to just say how fun the feud has been. It's been a great challenge but a welcomed one.

The match itself was great. It's just what I like and would expect out of a match involving Dream and Eversol. The little swerve with Kim was something I loved and was all for when I heard about the idea. I also loved the spot with the 20 dollar bills and Dragon. Lita did a great job on the match as always. Thank you for writing it.

What a great event. The future is bright.

This was a really good PPV! Really good turn out from everyone and I'm happy to see some returning faces. For those leaving, as the others have said, thank you! Nick Riot and Mad Dawg were both great characters and it sucks a bit that we're losing them. Nathaniel Alexander coming back is a bit of a dream come true for me. Thought Nate was just being a tease whenever he would mention something.

I still haven't finished the card in it's entirety. Probably going to have to read the rest throughout the week... but I've read all of the results now! Congrats to all of the champs! Everybody was working really hard that cycle and I was second-guessing a lot of my original "predictions", if we can call them that.

A public apology is in order to all, Craig and Lita especially, for not getting anything for the champion's debate. Thought it was a good idea from the start and wanted to be part of it. It's absolutely terrible but I've still been wrapped up in some of my stuff in life so it slipped my mind. Not like I can wind back the clock, but if I could I would definitely make something happen there.

That said, congrats to our new and first FIW Champ! Lita absolutely took me to the limit this week and I was doing everything I could. I will say that I wish that I had an opportunity to RP first in the cycle, that seems to be something I need to work on. Always feels like I'm playing catch up... And if you try to play catch up with Johnny Amazing, you better be fast. Seriously though, I was hoping I had a bit more in me specifically for that third promo. Felt like I was biting Lita's style and the morning after I put it up I had a feeling like I should've taken it down or made changes.

The finish for the main event was handled incredibly well and AGAIN props to Craig. He puts in an amount of work for us that I couldn't imagine doing and it really shows how much he cares. Thanks for that! :D

This PPV was another great one and it seems like we have many more like it to come.

I just wanted to add that I felt obligated to write the Fighting Spirit Championship match more than anything. A little backstory here is that originally (as in immediately after Blessed & Forsaken) the tentative card had Stephen J. Eversol and the Dream slotted in the Winner's Choice Battle Royal. Considering Eversol had just competed in the Championship Aspirations 4-Way and the Dream was in a non-title tag team match, I felt like these were two characters in particular that could really sink their teeth into something a bit more personal. So when the first Eversol vs. Dream match was booked, I pleaded with Craig to look into building an actual feud between these two characters to lead to an eventual singles match at this event. It was rather fortunate that they were already slotted into the FSC Scramble match and that Bleak was firing on all cylinders to win the belt and make this singles feud that much bigger for them.

Long story short, I pushed for these two to have this feud and match so I would have felt extremely guilty if it was just one more match on Craig's plate at the event. In the end, I'm glad I took the match because it was probably my favorite match that I wrote for the entire show. The only thing that sucked was I knew I'd be writing one of these incredible characters to lose.

I really liked the match, Lita. I was so glad Dream was himself and stuck to his character and that was so well-exemplified. I know Hayden's been around the e-fedding scene, but he spent so much time in NGIW and I see so much potential in him that I've always considered him "one of mine". Much like Sticky, it just makes me smile to see him doing so well, and to see someone else care that deeply for his character makes it extra special.

Been trying to post this since Monday but for whatever reason I kept getting an error message.

Let me start off by saying Deadlock as a whole was an absolutely amazing show. A lot of unexpected twists and everyone did an awesome job building it up that I can see why Craig had such a tough time deciding the winners. Congratulations to all the new champions and also to those who retained, but holy shit Johnny finally won the big one! I've been fortunate enough to see Lita's run with Johnny and Brittany from the beginning so really cool to see Johnny finally get his dues. And to have won it against Matt is definitely an accomplishment, dude is a hell of a fighter and I know for certain it won't be long before he gets Darian's name on that brand new list of FIW Champions as well.

Gotta say I was surprised to see Nick leaving as well. You were a great competitor, man and it's sad to see ya go.

The Career Vs. Crew match was fuckin' epic. I expected it to be a little off the rails but this thing was at a whole other level. Huge kudos to Craig on putting it together and that incredible finish. Definitely did not see the insurance policy coming. Only bummer was that Steve's taking a hiatus now so he won't get as much of an initial rub as I was wanting to give in my final match. But all in all it was a really great way to go out. Craig putting that transition to go back for the final speech was brilliant, especially as he did it on the fly cause I had no clue whatsoever that the match was going out there. :D

But thank you everyone for the kind words, it's really been great working with everyone from the start, from all of you here currently to those no longer around. Being here at FIW the last five nearly six years has been an awesome experience, from running as a handler to running the show for a year and a half to coming back to the roster and actually making it as a top guy, I had a lot of fun.

But yeah this isn't a goodbye, I'll definitely see you guys later on.

;)

Man. Great show! Wonderful writing and INTENSE drama. Loved it.

The LAST DC Darian Gray. Now that has a ring to it. Love it. Love Johnny Amazing getting to be the first FIW champ. The character has come a long way and it's bittersweet that its taken this long but as overdue as it is. It's right.

Glad to see Nathaniel back. We were talking about the itch weeks ago and I'm glad to see him come back to tear it up. If only I were so lucky :P

Sad to see Nick Riot go. Damn shame. Hope he comes back.

No MD 20/20 anymore? Damn shame. Damm damn shame. This calls for the return of Bobby Sanchez. Or The Fourth Reich...wait. Scratch that. Bobby :P


All in all glad y'all having fun and keeping FIW fresh. Great job errbody

Just when you thought you all had gotten rid of me, guess who’s back! :P Lol. Bit late on the feedback for the show. I'll try and get better at that in the future. But here we go!

This was absolutely an amazing show! I like the way the first 2 matches were presented in a pre-show deal. Following that up with the promo from Orion Oldriod, that made, not only the whole show, but also the ME with Johnny and Darian feel much bigger than they already felt before that.

Hat’s off to Craig for writing that battle royal. I’ve always felt like writing any match where there are more than, like, 4 people, is the hardest thing to do. I haven’t actually done it, but I’d imagine it’s difficult to do.

Nice promo between Marilyn Cross and Brittany showing their sportsmanship, or maybe it was something more to that. Admittedly, I still haven’t caught up with all the storylines going on around here. Lol. Either way, that was a good one.

The Hellcats handicap match was another good one and I liked the way Xenia was presented in that match. In some ways, it kind of reminded me of the Kellyn character I had a while back with her power offense and stuff like that. She really comes across as a force to be reckoned with, so it’ll be cool to see where the character goes. The promo after the match between April Lynn and Xenia was a nice touch too. It’ll be interesting to see if that goes anywhere.

Big congrats to Cody McGinnis on winning the Rising Championship. Being as big a fan of Cody as I’ve always been, it’s awesome to see something big happen for the character. The match itself was a great read and the constant false finishes added some good drama to it. Great job on that match.

The Eversol/Kim/Brittany/Johnny story is one that I can’t wait to have Alexander jump into to add another facet to that program. Bleak has been telling me all about that story and I think it’d be interesting to see what Nathaniel would do in that situation being that Kim is his manager, but then Stephen is his best friend, and then he showed respect for Johnny in his “retirement” match. Lol. I didn’t know Nathaniel would be mentioned in the promo, though. Lol. I don’t know how I feel about Kim throwing him under the bus without him being there to defend himself, though. :P

Shaelin Marie Richlen vs. Helena Handbasket was a nice, short match. Helena is another character I’m a big fan of, so seeing her advance in that match was awesome. That match was a lot of fun to read and it was really well-written. Lita always has a knack for making characters look good, including in this match.

I love the fact that Marilyn Cross’s rep is Bayley and Lita chose “Everything Is Awesome” for her entrance theme. Lol. I think that’s so fitting. This match was awesome; another short but sweet one. It had a lot of good back-and-forth and when one person would get the upper hand, it was a bit of a surprise when the other would take control back. Awesome match and it’s great to see Brittany win this one.

The Three Stages of Hell match was absolutely awesome. It sucks to see Nick Riot go as he’s someone I would have liked to have seen against Alexander. We did have a couple of matches here and there, but to my recollection, we didn’t have a whole lot as far as a full program goes. Here’s hoping we’ll get that chance if he ever decides to come back at some point.

It’s funny, I remember telling Bleak that he should use that “Eversol season has returned” in place of “Escobar season has returned” in that Nas song, but I wasn’t sure if he’d actually done that. That was really cool to see in that entrance. Lol. The Eversol/Dream stuff is another thing Bleak has been telling me about and he’d mentioned he was worried who would win this match. Dream is yet another one I’ve been a fan of since NGIW and I enjoyed the program he and Alexander had there. Hayden is awesome, so it was no surprise to me that he was fighting so hard for this match. It’s awesome to see Eversol take the win here and retain that FSC title.

Craig with another great multi-person match. It’s crazy to see the Brick Sharks lose the tag team titles, but I really like what I’ve seen from the Jericho Cruz character. Admittedly, it’s not much, but I do like what I’ve seen, though. This was an awesome match that was a lot of fun to read. It’ll be interesting to see where things go from here for all teams involved.

Awesome promo between Johnny and Eversol. I really like the way that whole story has been going, and like I said before, it’ll be fun to have Nathaniel jump in on that story and see what we can do with that. Johnny playing the big brother role only to have Eversol be the antagonistic boyfriend was awesome. Seeing that heel Eversol is great and Lita always makes it easy to play off her, as I’m sure Bleak would agree.

It’s really cool to see Helena get the #1 contender spot for the Hellcats championship. I think she’ll have a helluva challenge ahead of her facing off against the dominating champion. Being a fan of both Brittany and Helena, I’d have enjoyed this match no matter who won. The fact that it was a Last Hellcat Standing match gave it that extra bit of awesome and it was a lot of fun to read.

As I said earlier, I’m back! Lol. When I was told how Nathaniel would be coming back to FIW in the finish of this match, I had mixed feelings. It sucks Marc and Steve are both leaving us; I wish I’d gotten the opportunity to work with them more often. A Nathaniel/Jack Jr. program would have been really cool, and although we did get to do some one-offs, a Nathaniel/Mad Dawg thing would have been great too. Here’s hoping they’ll find their way back to us at some point.

Man, Sakura is really on a tear with that Hellcats championship! Sakura vs. April Lynn was an awesome match. I feel like they both complement each other’s in-ring styles so it made it a lot of fun to read that match. Great job from Lita with this match.

I think the general consensus with the ME is it’s long overdue for Johnny Amazing to have a big title. The same was true when he got the International Championship, and it’s true now with the first-ever FIW Championship. Darian was awesome as DC champion, and I’ve always been a big fan of his, but seeing Johnny take the big win here was amazing and I couldn’t be happier to see it.

Wow, that was a lot going on in that show! Lol. Overall it was an amazing show and I can’t wait to see how things play out coming off of that one. Great job to everybody all around! On to the next!

As much as I'd love to take credit for that, it wasn't me. The theme song was Hayden's brilliance. I'd never even heard of it before. Marilyn was only missing the copy-paste entrance for me to use at the PPV.

Also, thanks for the feedback on the show! I appreciate it!
