Certified Greatness 2018

[Mr.Sensation]

Yea I noticed that, didn't realise there was a no-firearms policy do will note for next time. Glad you liked it, tryna play off the Hollywood gimmick by doing parody RPs using movie genres, tropes, etc.

 

Thats what i figured, shit was straight out of Strike-Back.

FINALLY, Justin Jehst HAS COME BACK to the CERTIFIED GREATNESS THREAD!

 

5 pages in Microsoft Word later, holy fuck... You can tell I was getting over it by the end haha, from now on only quick reviews to save my soul.

 

 

RUDO’s QUICK NOTE CERTIFIED GREATNESS CLOSE UP

 

 

+ The show kicks off with the enigmatic Blackbeard and his new stable “The Account” who are all female. Interesting concept for sure, and I’m a fan of both Blackbeard and Billy Bones in particular; she looks like some of the girls I used to date ;) . Good build up for the match on the card, plus a teaser for a potential ‘Lution match; definitely one rivalry I’ll be following.

 

 

MATCH:

Vincent Winters vs. Blackbeard

 

Thoroughly enjoyed this match from the get go. The build up and added pressure on Blackbeard to pull out the win made it feel like there was really something on the line here. The action was well paced and varied and didn’t drag on for too long. Blackbeard picked up the hard fought win in the end, propelling him towards an eventual confrontation with Lucas Crowe.

 

 

+ Eerie and Anna RP; great showing of character and personality between these two rough-around-the-edges bitches. They are not fugging around here. Let’s see how Eerie fares in the triple threat. CHEA!

 

+ An RP brought to you by Invictus Industries. Archer and Lee banter is always entertaining. Nothing was resolved for the rights to Invictus Industries even after running through a plethora of ideas. And a minion got slapped out of their seat by Blaine, so all in all a great promo.

 

+ Creepy ass Heather Angelo promo. Roma Downey seen this shit; this bitch ain’t getting touched by an angel any time soon. She surrendering her soul to the devil, to the demons who are spawned from the Abyss!

 

+ Clip of some pimps talking. I don’t get it, maybe it’s some inside historical reference? I’ve seen these a few times on shows but I don’t get it; some1 plz explain 2 me.

 

+ RP from yours truly. I leave alone. I dun no de wae.

 

 

MATCH:

Heather Angelo vs Eerie Sunshine vs Queen Mab

 

Eerie Sunshine a bad bitch. Heather Angelo a freaky bitch. Queen Mab a ??? bitch. I wanna see more Queen Mab promo’s to see what her deal is, the entrance clip left me wondering. As for the match, solid showing from everyone, health stayed even throughout. Got the feeling Angelo and Eerie just wanted to beat the snot out of each other. Heather’s Orange Crush finisher is fucking brutal. When everyone was double red near the end it was like every pin could end it. Mab picks up the win via cheeky roll up.

 

 

+ Kass and Ryu back at it again with the white Vans...I mean the RP’s. Hilarious once again with the Hulk figure shit. I had a huge wrestling figure collection when I was younger so I popped for that.

 

+ Strong words from Jookie. Not much to say except we’re gonna see how this blood feud gets settled later in the card.

 

+ Strong words AND actions from Dennis/Madison in regards to their position on Turmoil, the title, and huge disrespect to RD Money by defacing his statue. RD Money gonna wanna land a few king hits in this match to get his own back.

 

 

MATCH:

Rust Cohle vs. Jookie Marley

 

I’ll mirror the sentiment this match has already received in that it went way too long. It could have ended a lot earlier with Jookie winning and been a really good match. Apart from the length it was great up until about the 20minute mark and then began to drag on.

 

 

+ Short set up RP for the Clark Effect with H20 and Tibby; we’ll see how this unfolds later.

 

+ The Trio of B-17/Ding/CJ lay out their plan of attack...well...B-17 attempts to explain a complicated football-esque playbook plan before being set straight by Ding; fight the bastards! YEA DADDEH!

 

 

MATCH:

Ding/B-17/CJ vs. Seb and Code Terror

 

Digging Bingo’s attire as of late. The tights, top combo with the logos and designs = thumbs up from me. Also, Code Terror’s matching attire was good to see, look more like a team. Been a while since I’ve seen them come out together. Seriously boys, just go full psychological horror gimmick; with that entrance you can pull it off.

 

The match was fucking chaos; good chaos, fun chaos. Was really awesome use of camera angles, multiple people recording is such a good idea for multi man matches with 6 people. Some awesome spots including a 180 degree elbow drop to the outside by B-17, which I’m assuming was an animation glitch but damn it looked cool. Down to Tay at the end against two of Turmoils top guys, held his own until getting pinned. Really good match.

 

 

+ Another build up promo for the LHW title match; lots on the line for both guys though Tibby has more to lose in this one.

 

+ Mark out moment with Kass and Ryu playing with the action figures again. Straight up nostalgia for me when I was young and had a container full of wrestling figures. My top guys were NWO B&W Hogan, Stone Cold, and Edge.

 

+ Irving RP; really well written in that it makes me believe he just wants to hurt Ricky. It doesn’t even seem to be personal, he just wants to hurt someone and Ricky is the unlucky soul. Really enjoying this character as the MMA-esque, no nonsense, scrapper.

 

 

MATCH:

Irving vs. Ricky

 

This match was really good. Doesn’t bother me if people claim the ending was ‘fixed’ it was entertaining to watch the underdog get beat up, come back, get beat up again and eventually come out on top.

 

 

+ Man these dudes putting in WORK! Shout out to Tiberius and H20 for putting in around 10 RP’s. Give me this match NAOW.

 

 

MATCH:

Katherine vs Sophia (Womens Title)

 

Really good match. Lots of hardcore spots for a hardcore match; tables, ladders, and chairs. Despite the controversy surrounding the ending the rest of the match was entertaining to watch for sure. Hopefully, now, under new light, the Womens Division can become something new and exciting/re-invigorated.

 

 

+ Ricky talks about his win over Irving and the Young Drakes head off to celebrate with a couple of beersies at the Roadhouse.

 

 

MATCH:

Dennis vs. Perfect Circle

 

Knowing what we know now this match is tainted for me (viewed it before things came to light). I thought each match was really competitive in terms of body colour damage before Dennis got the pins on each guy. Hopefully these guys can come back for more matches at the top of the card because they all have the look and talent on the sticks to be there.

 

 

+ Cort and Ed announce the details for the tag tournament. Been a while since the show so I think the polls have closed for entry. Looking forward to seeing what happens with this and the Riot Tag Team scene.

 

 

MATCH:

Tiberius vs. H20 (LHW Title)

 

Really great match exhibiting just what the LHW division should be about; springboards, top rope, technical moves, reversals, and athletic strikes. With all the build up to this match it was one I was glued to. In the end the torch was passed to H20; congrats man, hopefully you can do the title proud.

 

 

+ Invictus RP; B-17 and Lee, will the friendship be repaired? And who was on the other end of that phone call with Lee?

 

+ In ring contract signing with two of OCW’s legends. Excited to see what these two bring to Lution this year.

 

 

MATCH:

CHAMBER FOR OCW TITLE

 

Pugh looking very Y2J-esque; dig it a hell of a lot. Massive match but there were definitely a lot of cool spots to keep things fresh throughout. I was rooting for Pugh at the end there but alas it was not meant to be. Looking forward to seeing what Kass’ next challenge will be to defend the belt.
