I like his take on going after the world title. Its an obsession and its actually quite interesting to see Gus doing it the way he is. But ya have to agree. not necessarily a face like thing to do.

Am I the only one who finds it hard to look at Gus as a face anymore? Maybe not a heel but definitely not a face. Please tell me we're not going to go through this again. My definition of face is not restricted to the all too simple babyface. I've always said that the Predator Knight persona was a more cynical, insulting, psychotic face. That does not have to be contradictory at all. I shouldn't have to keep explaining that.

That does not have to be contradictory at all. I shouldn't have to keep explaining that. Calm down Gus, I'm not trashing you, what I'm saying is that while he may not be a heel I just don't see him as a face, he's more or less a tweener, in that A.) aside from getting along well with the fans (Which is also very common for tweeners) he shows little to no Heroic qualities, B.) He operates purely on self interest which, while it is not a bad thing for a face to operate on self interest (After all why else would they fight for titles), that seems to be all he does anymore. C.) I don't think "Cynical" means what you think it means because I being a cynic and knowing what it is have seen next to nothing from Gus that would indicate he is cynical. D.) He does a lot of things that other people doing would make them heels but it seems he's somehow always justified in so doing (Injuring a fellow competitor intentionally for no real reason, burying someone's accomplishments while constantly putting himself over) Honestly I do like your character, despite the blow up earlier this year and since then you have been consistently been getting better and like I've said earlier I hope you get a good run with the world title, what I'm trying to say is 1.) My opinion and 2.) I think it would be nice if for once we could get some acknowledgment that Gus did wrong from someone other than Jesse King. Again I like the character but I just don't see him as a face. EDIT: I'd like to request if you want to continue this conversation do it in PM.

The alignment of tweener is overused and abused in efedding . Hence why I do not consider myself such.

All I'm saying is I would like it to be acknowledged by someone other than Jesse King that you have done wrong.
Honestly I agree that if a tweener is poorly done they can REALLY suck, but really a Tweener isn't a bad thing in my view.

Really Gus, all you need to do is once in a while, have Tim Hoss mention how he doesn't always agree with Gus' tactics. He can still support him, while acknowledging that he does work outside the rules at times. Kinda like how JR would occasionally acknowledge Stone Cold and Mankind's bending of the rules, but in a way that didn't make them out to be heels or tweeners.

Alright folks, for those who didn't see in the voting thread I am in a bit of a pickle hardware wise at home at present so I would ask that anyone writing this week, whether it be promo's or matches please try and send their respective items to BRB by Friday for posting of the show. I'm hoping to have things straightened away by next week at home and will still have some limited access via my phone and work comp.

Both received. That leaves two matches but keep the promos coming, folks. A big damn Niteraw is a happy Niteraw.

I'll be writing part of my match with chaser, but I also have a (rather frank) promo that needs to be and will be sent in and if something clears with Dragon I'll have an announcement after NiteRaw gets posted.
