First things first.
Big thanks to Josh for doing a ton of work on this show and keeping the wheels moving and adjusting to some last minutes changes. Appreciate all the work you've done as far as matches and segments go for the women's division.
That being said, I kind of struggled with the flow of this show a bit. Show was really match heavy and I needed some segments to fill in between them. So, the flow is probably a little disjointed on that front. I also had two segments that easily could have been the main event. Miro/Cody and the fallout from Momo/Hayter. Which I thought were both really fucking good. I think I did the right thing as far as flow goes and making it feel real and not so disjointed. The show was gargantuan...our biggest yet and I expect Ascension to blow it out of the water. Wound up being about 75ish pages in Google Drive. So yeah, a ton of writing went into it all. Some special kudos I wanna throw out.
Vinny (Too Sweet) reached out to me about doing some stuff with Warhorse knowing that his handler had ghosted us. He pitched some ideas I really loved and is doing something worth keeping an eye on. Good stuff there.
Scott has absolutely grabbed the bull by the horns and done some great stuff as Cody in the little time he's been here. Obviously I'm a fan of his work with him winning the rumble, but the segments and social media posts and the Eruption stuff...it's just all clicking right now. I know he and pylum collaborated on the ending segment and I think it came across really well.
geoff seems to be finding his voice with MCMG and it's looks like it's starting to click. Congrats on his win and getting put into the tag team elimination match at Ascension with mrhacksaw and wasabi - the final team will be announced tomorrow (Thursday) some time, so make sure to check back on that.
grandprincess and dustin put on a really competitive match with Hart and Noa and it's probably the one I went back and forth on the most. Really pleased with the work you've both been putting in. I don't know if Hart is a priority for you, Dustin, but you're killing it with her. Zelda's stuff has flowed so well and just been consistent. That's been her biggest strength in her writing. Just being consistent over her characters and their work.
neelan Yes, just yet. I was fucking jacked to book you against mattg at Ascension because I think that's going to be a really good match. You guys can both go so it should be a fun match. Looking forward to seeing how that matchup plays out.
Roster cuts will be happening tomorrow. If you think you might have anyone on the chopping block, let me know and we can talk about it. I've already spoken to a few of you.
Ascension card will be live tomorrow. I just haven't had time to work on match graphics yet and only have a few done. I kind of wanted to see how this show played out before I fully booked anything, but most of you know what matches you're in - especially those with title matches.
Championship matches are being bumped up to 3000 words over your choice of 1 to 3 RPs. Initially it was 2500 but I'm bumping in an extra 500 words for all title matches going forward.
Again, huge show. Good turnout. Guys got some Ws that needed some Ws and got them going in the right direction. If you haven't been booked for Ascension yet or just want to make sure you're on the card, here's the booking thread for that. Really happy with how everything is going and the card and stories we've built for our first huge show. I hope you guys are excited as I am to get the RPs and results up for that one. It should be super competitive and I look forward to making some difficult decisions in the next week.
Good stuff as always guys and thank each and every one of you for your time, dedication and effort to this place. It does not go unnoticed.
