One other thing. This is a minor nitpick, but it's something that's just been bugging me since NOTWZ and since another match before that where a similar mistake was made:
Everybody realizes that the Wind Up Monkey is a character and not a foreign object with which the General is likely to hit people, right?

Sorry I haven't posted anything since sending out the voting; I haven't been feeling too well for the last couple of days. Anyway, I'm about to tally up the results and send 'em out now, as well as finally editing the post with the card to show who's writing what at a glance. EDIT: By the way, looking at the previous discussion about faces, heels, and anti-heroes/tweeners, here are my thoughts... Booking 101 says that a reliable way to make the fans turn on a wrestler is to have him go after one of the most popular faces in the company and have him attempt to justify it by blowing a minor slight out of proportion. That seems to be what Seth's doing. As for Amigo turning face, another thing to remember is that for ages wrestling promoters have seemed to assume that fans have short memories, for better or worse. I've used this as an example before, but it bears repeating here: after all the stuff he did with the Ministry of Darkness, if Taker can turn face then anybody can. Oh, not to mention that he allegedly did kill his parents and, if you want an example of something Russo had no hand in writing, attempted to kill Paul Bearer. When I first began watching wrestling, it was in the middle of the first Taker/Mankind feud where Mankind was the heel and Taker was the face. I remember my reaction when Mankind finally turned face and saved somebody, and the whole crowd popped for it. I was like "Why are they cheering for him? Don't they remember what he did?" But that's just part of wrestling. So usually when somebody claims to have turned over a new leaf--or if they don't even apologize but start doing good things instead of bad--that's enough for fans to cheer 'em instead of boo. Im not sure at this time if turning Seth heel would be the right move so I will hope to try and end this whole "Seth pissed at Jonathan" angle.

Seth should just stay in Tweener mode for a while kinda like CM Punk did in 2009.

Working on the tag match right now. I'm hoping it comes out okay, tag matches are not my forte.
EDIT: Also the power is flickering since I live in NH. If something happens I will let you all know in advance if I need assistance in something for this match.

I am sorry to do this to you guys but over 200,000 in nh are without power I hear ya Aaron. We're getting hit with the nor'easter now. Mainly rain but the wind is insane right now and it's calling for a chance of freezing rain which will make a fine mess. Stay safe and warm man.

It's times like this I'm glad I live in the Southwest, where it's only just really hot.

Welcome back, Shamar. Yeah, we now actually have five jobbers, although you could certainly try a match against another member. Truth be told the roster isn't as thick as I'd like what with Colt coming back again and disappearing again, with Whitey gone, and with BRB being barred from competing in the storyline. As for the matches coming up, we have: Jonathan Michaels (the new world champion!) & Aaron Enigma vs. Gus Richlen (IF champion!) & Seth Drakin Vincent Van Agony vs. The General of the Monkey Army Evil M vs. The Punisher Pumpkin King vs. Jeremy Dupoe "Brainbuster" Jason Allen vs. Amigo It's too late for you to wrestle on this NiteRaw, but you can still write a promo for the show or something if you want. EDIT: Jinx, Connor!

I can write the tag match btw, I guess. If you have access to what you've written so far and could send it to me though, Aaron, that would make it a lot easier, but if not it's cool. Can you write match with me squashing the Great Warrior? Truthfully, I think we'll have enough trouble just getting the matches we already have finished on time.
