So, hey... that's the first promo I've written since... 2004? Maybe earlier. I figured I'd dodge the usual debut promo tropes... you know. "I've been champion of eight feds none of you were in! I'm so badass I'm going to have all of the belts at the same time! I'm better than everybody; take my word for it, because you would pretty much have to! Everyone is going to suck my dick and the ladies are going to suck it twice! Roar!" That sort of thing.
As for my wrestling background, I sort of stopped watching after WWF/E killed ECW. ECW was my favorite thing ever. They were unconventional as fuck and I loved that... so that's kind of where I'm coming from. Low budget as fuck, even in Wordpad.
If I ended up sounding like a comedy character, it's probably just because I've spent the last six years doing standup. That, and I refuse to be boring. Heh. Feedback's appreciated... either way, it's great to be back at the keys.

Last live show I went to was November To Remember 2000 (NO Arena). When I ran a 'fed back in the day, I booked the whole thing like ECW... people would read cards and end up finding out their singles match had turned into... well, you've seen ECW. My favorite was two dudes spent all week RPing for a match, then when they read the card they ended up finding they'd been jumped out by the tag champions in their show-opener match, then they jumped into the tag match main event, turning it into a 3-way dance (which they won, making them champions.) Needless to say, I love wrestling when it's random and awesome. WWE does the random well, but awesome? Oh, by the way, I've only read the one promo of yours, man... but holy shit. Violent and insane - you're already my kinda character, man. I used to write a violent religious cultist who prayed to Geddy Lee from Rush. -B.

Hell of a start man! It's great to see all of the new talent here and your going to be tough to beat when you get to know the fed more. Good luck to you!
