Turmoil 205

[Lotus FloJo]

There you go , Jesht.

[B-17]

We did it together.

RUDO's Quick Note Turmoil Takedown:

 

So Ashley Moore and Riley Quinn double face turn? Weird, dunno if I got that, why would the crowd suddenly cheer these two? On the positive side, Moore finally got off that ddt for a win.

 

Archer vs Malu - Pride Championship @ Savage Lands?

 

Tyler Steel vs. Jett Draven. All I'm gonna say is that if I was Tyler Steel I'd be pissed. Just a lot of living in the Grey area with FPR from Draven. FPR breaks happen on occasion (heat of the moment etc, I've done it) and I can brush off the odd mistake but, man. It may not say things in the rules but there is a general etiquette that I've seen and adhere to, especially with pick up bumping. If you're the one bumping, don't immediately attack; to me that's an FPR break as you haven't, in a sense, reset at all, you've just continued your string of attacks. Rematch? I'd like to see it.

 

Tag Title feud building. If these two teams face off @ Savage Lands we'll get to see if CD can truly stand up to CT 2 on 2.

 

Bray with the ambush! Do you know what would be cool? If Bray brought out a surprise tag partner next week and it was Bates but he is now a tagger/graffiti gangster and they enter the tag division and then there will be one more team to feud with and that's my OCW fantasy booking of the day, thank you.

 

CJ (and handler) is all over this show.

 

AWOL and CQC bringing the hilarious to Turmoil. Good to see their tag division heating up too. And yes, all about RISK.

 

B-17 holy shit hahaha, I actually lol'd at this one. Mugen via hologram; genius.

 

Scumciety are taking over. Refreshing new team. Real threat to those titles.

 

That 450 from Wrex was hilarious. When I saw the "Finisher" prompt pop up on the screen I had completely forgotten about the steal finisher thing and thought he'd adopted a top rope move. Then that happened hahaha.

 

Malu is plotting revenge on the walkouts. HOW DARE THEY! Riot should be interesting indeed.

 

RP of the Night: B-17 (Hospital Nudity)

MOTN: Without being biased and choosing my own (which I really enjoyed, thanks for stepping in Ricky), I had to go with Stixx/Flojo based on the pure competitiveness of it.

[B-17]

Holy shit, Wrex. That was nuts. The success rate of your finisher steals is quite low. The success rate of that finisher hitting is quite low. You won the lotto essentially. Now get a bath and shave your chest.

[B-17]

Bray is...the sound of silence.

[Jett Draven]

So I'll explain this and I hope that it's received in a positive way. Alot of of people may not know but Ive consulted many vets and HOF's in regards to FPR. Jehst what you described as "Living in the Grey area", the veterans and more experienced players would describe as "Playing aggressive." I was told by a reputable Hoot and I'm not going to name drop that contrary to popular belief, a reset isn't about spacing it's about giving your opponent a chance to reverse again. If you look at the match there's actually a two "One Thousand" counts after each bump, which is enough time to reverse again. Also you have to take into account that I'm putting myself at risk by bumping considered I am actually able to be hit after a bump, so if the opportunity for offense is not taken or is missed on top of having the opportunity to reverse, it's fair game.

I'd like to know who and what exactly was said cause what I saw there has never been cool.

Actual show comments come later, but no, that isn't how it works. A reset is a reset, it is neutral ground. You back up far enough away and for enough time that the next contact is effectively a new event. If a reset was just "giving them enough time to reverse again" then you'd be able to have them down on revs very quickly. It's meant to be a separation followed by another clash.

 

Now I ain't a vet but I haven't had FPR complaints since like 3 months after I got here, except for Jay that one time and he was wrong. Lol.

 

Bumping should not be putting yourself at risk as long as both competitors are following the rules of the game, that being a bump is a reset. The person being bumped should not attempt an attack before both are separated. You did that too.

 

To put it another way, if you think a reset is only about time and not spacing... if you reset but stand close, they're a) confused because most people don't do that, and b) now forced into two choices: attack or wait and try to reverse. You're effectively removing the movement options and more freeform attack options they have after a proper reset. It's not full-on rule breaking but kind of soft-fucking them out of options and a mind-game-by-doityness. They might have time to attack, but their brain is going "huh he ain't supposed to be--GAK"

 

Think of it like this: You stand there, they have two choices. Easy enough to predict. You back off, they can now do more than attack or wait; they can back off out of the ring, try a springboard, and their attacks if they do them will be less predictable since you both have to close distance.

 

You only did it like 25% of the time, but, y'know, dondodat. Most egregious is 15 mins in, you just crapple the guy after a pin reset. That's the one that's a flagrant rule break. Tyler also kicked out of maybe a bit much but I get it, the match didn't run long anyhow.

[H20_]

There’s ALWAYS some type of controversy involving this guy. The cheat 2.0. Tyler Steel had him even after all that unethical bumping throughout the entire match. That’s is the main reason why you rarely see me bump a guy.

 

 

Honey I’m dipping into our savings account and getting a ps4.

 

Sheesh that was awful.
