Loving seeing the write-ups coming flying in today

Not sure if it is to the standard of what I did before in drafts because I def made that card too long and struggled doing 3 massive posts to make it happen but... it's done!

Thanks again to Necro for running the draft. I'm looking forward to reading everyone's submissions more thoroughly. I've only skimmed through so far, but there seems to be lots of quality.

Necro

I'll whack everyone's into a singular post to make it easier for the reading...

Feedback :

MNG – Preview show –

Love Jesse as the host and you captured him perfectly in the opening line, loved the line about him coming live from his bunker. Love the throwback to Steamboat v Kurt Angle (a feud I loved). I like the drug facility angle and it fits well with Jeff Hardys past.

Lesnar v Tyson in their prime would be money, I enjoyed how the feud kicked into gear at the Rumble. The line of “The man who you chant for has a history of biting off things he shouldn't, but anyone foolish enough to challenge Brock Lesnar is truly biting off more than he can chew”….mwah, chef kiss.

Steiners vs Rod Warriors is a huge match and it would be a potential show stealer.

James v Storm (James Strom? Ha) would be a fun bout playing off Mickies real life feelings towards her perception. WGTT v The Von Erichs would be a fun bout and I love how the feud developed with the drug possession angle, original and believable. Ive used the Von Erichs drug fuelled past before and its gives you a wide scope to plan.

I thought Steiners v LOD would be the hardest hitting bout on the card until I seen this match. Finlay v Shibata makes me wince at the thought of how hard they could hit eachother. Ventura v Graham would be a great throw back match too.

A cool looking card and the promise of Strike Force. Look forward to reading the show.

MNG – PPV -

Always look forward to reading your work, you set up a great card with good backstories. Ventura has been fantastically portrayed, love his verbiage and the rationale surrounding his feud with Graham. Was sad to see Ventura lose and his exit was well written. I wonder how Graham will be involved further. Having Shibata go over was the right call and I agree that the match would not be for the faint of heart.

The Von Erich/WWGT feud is well set up, with Haas and Von Erichs both having drug histories. The match, if both team in the prime, would be a must see. Didn’t see the ending coming, so good job there.

Happy the veteran lost in the Mickie Storm match and having Molly Holly watch on gives scope for a future feud down the line with either woman.

Road Warriors v Steiners is a main event anywhere in the world, and to have it 3rd last shows the quality you’ve assembled. Either team could go over and Id easily watch a trilogy.

Steamboat v Hardy rightly does not go on last, as Brock v Tyson would be the marquee match. Its also very similar to Angle v Steamboat of previous years, but it’s a contest based on respect rather than Angle being on a journey of recovery. Hardy v steamboat would be a great match, no doubt and I was so curious to see how Jesse and Superstar would be involved, so you 100 percent had my attention, good job there. The ending….again, chef kiss….. I suspected Steamboat turning due to the heelish antics during the match, but I loved how everything fit together with Graham and WGTT. Loved a heel Steamboat as I can imagine how passionate he would be. Just loved it.

The main event was very well written, you seemed to think of everything. The fight had juice and I can easily imagine it happening in real life. Loved the ending and the fact Tyson has an out was very clever. Lesnar winning was the right call.

Overall, as usual, a very well written, clever show…. Though I expect nothing less. A top contender to win as always. Great show which I thoroughly enjoyed.

Necro

Gonna launch into my own feedback this evening after work I'm hoping

People, are the photos for my write-up appearing for ye?

beakerjoe

Necro – Preview show –

Look forward to reading as always, I expect you to be a strong contender as is tradition. Like the idea of JBL as the head of the new consortium, makes sense and it’s a natural fit for him. The New Days interaction with NWO and their script was easy to imagine. Pitting them against the NWO is a logical choice for a money feud. Touching on Hogans racist past is a smart move and I loved their confrontation. The matches should be fun, Woods v Nash seems like a nice miss match and Kofi and Waltman could tear it down, while the top match of Hogan v Big E, with the added stakes is a great choice.

Trish v Becky…. I don’t have to say much here, just take my money. Both in their prime would be a great bout. Briscoes vs JBLs new Cabinet would be a fun feud, though Ive never been a fan of Corbin, a match like this is good use of him as hes a good fit as JBLs second in command.

Raven v HTM is a nice feud, big fan of both men and I’m sure together they have a great feud. Loved the use of the “fake” Razor paired with Horace and a match with Truth and …Lil Jimmy, will surely be great comedy relief and somethinga show needs.

Overall, Looking forward to how it all plays out, so far you look like a serious contender for BH’s crown.

I had a picture for every match.

Not a deal breaker (apart from one match), mainly an aesthetic issue.

Necro – PPV –

Nice to see Billy Bob and Necro back in the booth.

Kofi v Walterman in a match would be a fine opener never mind in a ladder match. Always love reading your matches, very easy to visualise as ever. Didn’t see the end coming (expected Kofi to win and Xavier to lose), so Im stunned straight off the bat. Hogan and co are really written very well and loved how they are so dominant straight away.

Test v Dreamer could be real good in real life as Test is so underrated as a big man. Big fan of his. Good to see him get the win, which is the right call IMO.

New Day look in a bad way, odds stacked against them with Nash facing Woods and Kofi gone for a hospital visit.

Briscoes vs JBL and co would be fun, you’ve again stacked the deck against the faces and the Briscoes would be fun to see going against the JBL machine. The right team won as I agree, JBL and Corbin are not a team and Bashems aren’t near their level. Good stuff.

Glad Brodus won, always liked him and never believe he got a fair shake in real life, so glad to see him getting the win here. Again and easy match to visualise. Well written.

Loved, loved LOVED Woods v Nash…. The odds against New Day were huge and I was very curious to see how Woods would snatch a win against Big Sexy. Nash underestimating Woods was natural and logical. Woods stealing the win with a distraction roll up is the right call. Also loved how you brought the pancake gimmick into play, smart stuff. Big E has a chance but its clear that with Kofi and Woods injured, going it alone against the NOW will be an uphill battle. Good job Necro.

Big Greggy made me laugh and it fits well into Truths gimmick of misremembering names. A fun comedy bout which every card needs.

Becky v Trish is admirable from a writing POV. I have written an ironman match before and it’s a graft, certainly no easy feat. It takes dedication and commitment, and the fruit of you labour is amazing. Hats off. Its expertly written and may fav match on your card. Becky was the right choice IMO to win, so great to see you go in that direction, top marks.

I always feel the top 2 matches of any PPV are usually the strongest and its no surprise that you’ve written strong for Becky and Trish, real co main event feel.

Honky v Raven at first because of its positioning (going on after Becky v Trish) felt like it might be a filler match, but no sir. This match would really solidify HTM as a tough as nails heel. Going the distance with Raven here, in such a barbaric match was awesome to read, great work.

The main event, the constant story throughout your show, was NOW v New Day, and this match is the reward at the end for the reader. Both Hogan and Big E were written very well and the match was superbly written (only outdone by your Becky Trish match IMO). Loved the addition and further odd stacking of JBL. The story you told throughout the show expertly built to this moment when Kofi and woods return to even the odds. Big E had to go over and I really enjoyed reading it.

Never expected less than an entertaining read, and you delivered. Ive only read you and MNGs show, but its gonna be tight calling a winner this year for my scoring cards. Top work

That makes sense, ta BJ.


I'm not gonna bother fixing it, too much hassle when I was only doing the basics anyway.

White Wolf – Preview

Page v Austin would be a killer mainevent. Im a big fan of Page. Their match is built nicely, with Austin feeling like her owes a debt to Page a logical direction after tangling with Rectify. Big fan of having Sherri involved in the title picture and she would add much needed legitimacy to Adlis.

That said, Pillman Snr vs Adlis would surely be a great way to elevate Adlis to the big leagues. Pillmans great and pairing him with Adlis would be a great move, esp with the fuel of assaulting Pillman Jnr. Whos the special ref I wonder, Im certainly intrigued.

Rosa v Martel would be money, esp the way you’ve positioned Martel as the mastermind behind Rectify.

Love the Gable heel push and the addition of Sunny would be great. Kurt Angle levels of potential here with Gable and Jordan is nicely positioned as the wronged face. Loved the rouse in the clear the air talks too, nice storytelling.

Vachon v Rosemary could be a hard hitting affair, and could easily be a breakout moment maker considering the stip.

Hart v kidd would be a great match even without a story, but the hart family tale makes this feud an even more interesting bout and adds plenty of extra heat.

Love the mystery man match with Drake and the caveat of the winner tagging with Pillman Jnr makes me so curious to see what you have planned.

A quality card and I hope you can at least provide answers to how the show would play out. A great read.

Uncle walt – PPV - -

As previously said, love the match graphics, they polish your work very well. Best match graphics in draft history. (ABMG’s observer write ups a close second)

Tons of talent at hand here and some great dream matches.

The womens match is a not a dream match, as Im sure all 3 women faced eachother but it would be a crackin way to kick off the PPV. All 3 ladies are capable of a entertaining opener at the very minimum.

Mask vs Mask is a dream match and the stakes give it that extra spice, not that it need it. Just take my money.

Sabu vs Shieky baby has logic on paper and both in their angry prime would be something.

Great use of your celeb pick, as Colby v Taz would be a headline grabbing match with both men in their prime, people forget what a bad ass Taz was in ECW. The build and match would be fun to imagine and Colby could be a great heel.

The Cornette centric matches would be great fun, just to see Corny go ballistic. Regardless what you think of Corny, hes a great mind and a fantastic character. Warrior v Bruno would be a good match up/feud.

The Cornette Khan feud makes me wish I drafted Corny, Ive never had him ever. The feud and ladder match is a natural fit in so many ways from the history of the Bucks and Corny, to the styles of the tag teams involved. Great set up and the ladder match is the perfect stip.

Sting v Wyatt (love the graphic….) is another dream match if both men where in their prime and its such a natural feud. While Im not a huge fan of Wyatt, I loved his cinematic match with Cena last year and this is I similar vein with the throw backs to previous gimmicks.

Savage v Eddie….. dream match again, but it doesn’t get much bigger than this, 2 greats. Take my money. Colby v Eddie would be a fine feud too considering Colbys MAGA allegiance.

Delighted you got one in, it just wouldn’t be the same without you. Great job Wal and your making my choices harder to make regards who places where on my list.
