Riot 419

[Jimmy Henry]

Being face is boring, and it's difficult to stay that way and have fun with it. I had to reject an RP today with someone, because it had me veer too close to tweener. It's just natural to be mischevious, especially in a environment built around feuds.

 

As a new guy to OCW, without knowing all the lore, etc. A lot of my opinion on the character is based on how that person is on the boards. So if there's a disagreement on the board, and I think somebody is backing the "wrong" side of that argument, I naturally transfer my negative opinions onto their CAW, and it sort of makes them more "heel" - to me, as a fan.

 

E.g. Like one of the first weeks I was here, Buddy Burns was pretty critical of people in a post-show thread, so to me the next time I saw Buddy Burns fight, I was like, there's that angry little guy, he's bad, he's heel, lose.

 

Another example, was watching Pugh win his title as a face, then my opinion changing of his character after I heard him drunkenly diss someone for 5 continuous minutes on my first experience of The Desk.

 

These are just a couple of examples, but to me it's a really interesting dynamic, because it's not something I've experienced with "real"/pro wrestling. It's interesting to me, because we have the ability to control that to an extent.

 

I'm also totally aware that its all new to me and that the novelty to all of this will wear off, naturally, especially if you've put a lot of time in over the years - and you feel like you've seen every possible angle, story etc. But just now, I find it all quite engaging.

I like being a face..Shits easy for me because I'M THE PEOPLES GUY..VOTE FOR ME IN 2020

[The Monster]

I still have Riot 420 content to write, so I'm going to keep my notes shorter this week:

 

- Congrats to Cobra on winning a title, but you won a title you just kind of shat on in your RP. KD, who at the time was still champion, is just a pillar to get to Xander? Personal vendetta or not, especially knowing you just won the belt, you ought to avoid devaluing it.

 

- I like the Ragnarok development as a creative group. I think it'll be effective for them O.O.C. wise. I think the group probably, rightfully so, draws some comparison to the Ambition 5, and I think working together so closely will help them to form the foundation of what will probably end up being known as their era. As far as this story they're in currently, I feel like it's going to be Cobra vs them all because I'm not sure there's anyone that's going to fight with/for him. Suda surely wouldn't give a shit. Maybe Austin Lee? Maybe he doesn't think their group fits his definition of #SportsEntertainment and he needs to destroy them? I don't know. Hopefully they find some place to take this that isn't so one sided.

Also I don't necessarily understand the logic for Hayes. A couple of pages back in this thread you make it sound like you're going to dial back on Riot to focus on representing as Turmoil champion. If you're going to do that, I don't see why you'd join a group that is otherwise Riot only.

 

- We have such a mess with the world title right now that Ryu's speech is intruiging. I don't think he'd write it if he didn't have something coming from it, so I'm interested to see where it goes.

 

- As Kent pointed out, we're like 4 or 5 months or so into this season and Jook is still here, and still putting out good content. It's nice to see Jook.

 

- I was thoroughly disappointed by Parker this week. I thought he came out and sounded like Smythe when he says it's all about the money. Does it fit where his character is at this point in his career? Maybe, probably even, but that doesn't make it entertaining or necessary. You said a few times "wait till Riot", well, I did, and I'm just disappointed really.

 

- Trance is pretty much dead. It's like someone has filled his body with very slow acting poison. We're just watching him fall apart.

 

- That armbreaker looked nasty, the editing was awesome. Reminded me of when the SVR series had the cool finisher camera effects.

 

- Mugen and Jay are great together. It's all so sophomoric, almost kindergarten level shit really. But that makes it more entertaining cause it's not what we see most of the time.

 

- So uh.... no one else is going to mention that special interest group specifically against Caucasians. Like, not for promoting African Americans and Asians (actually the group didn't specifically mention Asians at all), just for promoting the destruction of white people. But if you want to take down the white people you're gonna have to get through one in particular: He-Man, cause he's gonna be REEEEEAL pissed at you all this week.

 

- Last note: Thanks for formatting Scaggs and Poling into my RP like that Jay, I wasn't expecting you to do that but it made it look a lot better. I'll try not to use them very often.

 

Pretty good show everyone.

[Parker]

I'm thoroughly expecting the people most butthurt from the Clash angle [Cody and Kent] to shit on anything I do from this week on, and that's your prerogative, but like I said on the show, I don't care.

 

The disappointment you felt is probably the same I felt when I found out that The Monster was just Cody.

 

Big week for A.C...I don't think anyone was expecting that.

But in a way that's comparing apples and oranges. Unless I'm misunderstanding it, you're basically saying I liked The Monster character until I realized who the writer was. And I'm saying, I don't really like this story you're writing.

I'll just say that when your identity was first revealed, he was disappointed that the monster wasn't an entirely new character, and we predicted it was a split personality thing, I'm gonna say I'm enjoying the story, but I see it only ending two ways, one I'm not gonna like at all, and the other I will love, but if I can be completely swerved it will be awesome.

Yeah, it was late when I watched it, so thanks for reminding me of this. I didn't like it much, and the fact that the guy was called Dr. Samuel L Morgan Luther X or whatever just felt a bit off. It's either badly written by somebody who probably shouldn't be joking about race or its a really well written parody, I'm not sure yet. I'll wait & see how it plays out.

I'm so glad that queer is gone. :D

[Smythe D. Wonder]

First of all... Parker speaks nothing like me...

 

Smythe loves OCW as it has made him rich!!! And he will do anything to return it to former glory... Which includes giving rookies TV time in the ring with him to up their stock...

 

Also look at the Smythe/Pugh for a look at how a Main Event match should look... Except for the end... 99% of that match was beautiful... I'm surprised nowone even mentioned my flawless blockbuster springboard spot!!!

 

Also Pugh used chsmp stats for the match... Butnhenwas no longer champion... #steroidscandal #HGH #Streakisstillalive...

 

You guys can all eat penis... Monsters entire story is very readable...

 

Finally the rooks joining together leaves them nowone to feud against besides the vets... Which is bad news for thenrooks... You guys need to think a bit more!!!

 

The retribution of Trance is a well written. Story as well I wonder what he'll evolve into...

 

I strongly suggest Drago drop that NA title so he can Main Event Lution!!!

 

The World title picture is now comprised of Pugh, Parker and Buffness... This had better become a great story!!!
