To: The roster of World Championship Federation
From: Terry "Synn" Roberts
After defending the Television championship against two fantastic competitors in Steel Toe Joe and John Gable, i wanted to do something a bit different with the Television title, not only be a fighting champion, but attempt to raise the bar so to speak, if i can. So i want to send out an open challenge to every single person on the W.C.F. roster, and put a little peoples title twist to it. Here is how it will go.
I have an open contract. If you wish to face me at Slam in two weeks for the Television championship, go to Seth Lerch and let him know. Seth will then pick the top 5 names from that list.
Here is where it gets interesting, I hope. Those 5 names will then go to popular vote, and cut a promo as to why they each feel they are more deserving of a title shot than the other 4. Whomever wins the vote, gets a Television championship match against me in Two weeks.
So what happens to the other four contestants, you may ask? I took that into consideration. Those four will then compete in a four man over the top battle royal, with the last man standing getting a title shot himself.
That is right folks, TWO of the 5 names chosen will get a shot at the Television title.
First, the winner of the popular vote
And second, the winner of the battle royal.
And what happens if i should lose the Television championship in the process? I already thought of that, the winner of the popular vote, and the battle royal, are guaranteed their title shot, regardless if it is against me, or someone else that holds the championship at the time of their title opportunity.
I do this because I want to be a fighting champion, and I do this in hopes to raise the bar and measure up, or even surpass those whom have held this prestigious belt before me.

@theonlyone Oh, and by the way. Being as you want to be a fighting champion, you can go ahead and add my name to your little list.

Pardon the grammatical errors Ms. Twilight, a bit of oversite from the excitement. And yes, you are right. I guess one would go to the new owner, Johnny Fly, to accept my open challenge. And the initial turn out is far better than i had hoped for. One mister Waylon Cash, and the lovely Sarah twilight. I assume by Roy Speede's comments he is considering as well?

Speede? Hell no. We see Speede on TV enough as it is, let's not give him the opportunity to win a belt that requires him to be on TV every week.

OOC: Ok, I need this explained to me like I'm a small stupid child.
If people want a shot for the TV Title they go to Seth. Seth picks the top five names. There's a vote among the posters, with the eligible wrestlers posting promos as usual to prove they're worthy. Wrestler with the highest vote total becomes Number 1 Contender. Four remaining wrestlers have a over the top rope battle royal. The winner of the battle royal also gets a shot.
Assuming I got this all correct, here are my questions:
1. Do the two wrestlers face the TV Champ at the same time, or are there two separate matches? 2. How is the winner of the battle royale decided? Is it the voting or does Seth make the call? 3. Is this a permanent change or a one time thing? 4. I'm assuming the voting will be done throughout the week ala the People's Title. What happens if (and this is a longshot I know), the person who wins the popular vote doesn't actually promo?

As tempting as this is for me, Terry, I'm going to have to pass on your offer for the time being. Your Hardcore Champion of the World isn't interested in some petty low-card belt like the TV Title for the time being.

@wcfowner
In case he wanted to, as a current champion Roy Speede can't participate. He needs to focus on not being such an utterly worthless Hardcore Champion before exploring the possibility of having two belts.
@wcfowner
Yeah, I said it. Speede's 'long reign' as Hardcore Champion is entirely short on substance. He's completely devalued the belt. The Television and United States Title belts are more prestigious right now. Way to go, Flyjobber. #RoySpeedeSucks #SeriouslyHeDoes

Ah fuck it, Jonny I want on the list to face Synn.
I've got absolutely nothing on my plate in-ring wise, so why not try to beat my previous reign as TV Champion.

OOC: If we are voting this like the People's title for a contender, why exactly would someone need to RP as to why they should face you? That would be much like RPing as to why they'll beat you, which should be reserved for when they face you and not wasted on a vote ballot. If people are voting on this, it should just be that. Cause it looks a lot like it's asking people to waste their RPs so that you can get a chance to see what they'll have to say before they ever get the chance to say it against you.
That's just my two cents.

OOC = Stuart Slane brought up some good questions. Would like to answer those here.
1. Do the two wrestlers face the TV Champ at the same time, or are there two separate matches?
the winner of the popular vote get's the shot in two weeks, as to allow them to promo and people to vote.
The winner of the battle royal will determine who faces the winner of the title match, the following week. And if i lose the title to the popular vote winner, that person goes on to face the winner of the battle royal.
2. How is the winner of the battle royale decided? Is it the voting or does Seth make the call?
The winner of the battle royal will be decided typically by Seth according to best promo.
3. Is this a permanent change or a one time thing?
This is a one time thing. Otherwise it becomes a copy of the Peoples title. Also the appeal would wear off after a couple of weeks and wouldn't be as appealing and such.
4. I'm assuming the voting will be done throughout the week ala the People's Title. What happens if (and this is a longshot I know), the person who wins the popular vote doesn't actually promo?
That's a damn good question, Might have to talk to Seth bout that.

That's just my two cents. Good question also. The way i had it pictured in my head, was that all 5 promo, because the winner is decided the night of the match. And the other 4 compete in the battle royal to face the champion the following week. And since I don't know who i will be facing till the card is posted, I actually have to promo against all 5 people. I hope that answers your question.

If the winner is decided the night of the match...last minute, that means no one can write it until last minute. If someone is facing you in 2 weeks, that gives basically this week for the votes, which then don't need RPs. You'd know who you were facing the following week and that is who you RP against. Makes things much simpler.

OOC: Playing Devil's Advocate: under these circumstances there could be the issue where the person who wins the popular vote doesn't cut what Seth considers the best promo, and since its Seth who ultimately decides who wins the TV title you could have a situation where one of the wrestlers in the battle royal (or more than one even), could conceivably win the title that night, but isn't eligible.

OOC: Yeah, what I am saying is if the poll were to happen this week. And after the 1/13 Slam we know who won the popular vote. So then Synn knows who he has to RP against for the following week, and also the other four people would know they are in the battle royal that night and need to RP for it.
This way, it's less confusing. Synn has his first challenger.
Battle Royal happens that same night.
The following week Synn (or whoever is TV Champ) has an opponent lined up (aka the BR winner)

OOC = Valid points. I see where all this is confusing. And i apologize. The idea is, of course my open challenge. All this week anyone and everyone who wants a shot, goes to Seth and tells him they want to accept the match. This week will be the "registry" phase, where everyone that wants to accept the open challenge, can. Next week The polls will then open for voting, the winner of the votes gets the shot at the title for the Slam on the 20th, the other four will then face each other in a battle royal, the winner of the battle royal goes on to face the champion at the Slam on the 27th. That is why everyone was asked to write a promo, Each competitor promos against me, and I will promo against all 5 of them, since my challenger will not be declared until the night of Slam on the 20th, making it a total surprise. This way Everyone has their promo covered for the Battle Royal.
