Turmoil 205

[Justin Jehst]

HOLD UP, so this big thing about jett vs tyler but no one is talking about Stixx HARDCORE breaking fpr to win against flojo?

 

Just watched this, Reverse -> knock down move -> pick up, some moves -> down to a knee which is a grounded opponent so should have reset but did a move -> THEN a WAKE up and FINISHER for the win.

 

 

You just did a pick up and people wanna complain about some attacks on bump.

 

 

was this a TV redo?

 

I dunno if that bump comment was aimed at me but I didn't even pick up on that tbh, plus Jett/Steel was just in my head when I wrote my quick review notes so I spoke on it. If that's the case then yea, definitely that's something to bring up.

nah it was in general, not aimed at just you.

[B-17]

whats really bad, idk, I guess b-17 vs ding since a lot of people hated how much b backed up. does it look like shit? yes, is it grey or against fpr? no. thats ethics, like I hate it when id dm with certain people and as soon as they were out of reversal they turned around and ran out of the ring. can i say they broke fpr? nope

 

 

consistency id suppose, couple times sure, every time, stop running from me reeeeeee. lol

 

I got bashed for that, yeah. And what have I done since that match? Move forward. Became more aggressive. Works for me, I've had quite a few great matches since early season. I look at my match with Malu, and the 6 man match, and Austin Lee series. I'm proud of all of it. And even that Ding match was hated or enjoyed, but that's the point. I used to HATE people who would walk forward one step, quickly back up...walk forward one step....quickly back up. Now. Naw, not so much. I remember having a huge debate with Jett about pick up combos, now I do it once or twice per match. All of this is an evolution.

 

I didn't flinch when I saw the Jett match. I understand what he is saying about resets. Would I do it to a rookie? No. I feel that I can be more aggressive with certain people. When I play Jamie, Wrex, Austin, or Jett I'm a bit more aggressive because I've talked with them about it and they know it's a play style that I've grown to enjoy and it helps put on fun matches. Was he perhaps a bit TOO much, yeah, sure, maybe a bit too much. Just like my Ding match, did I back up too much...well, yeah. I did because no one was able to beat him, he had a crazy damage output that I could not keep up with so. So I wanted space. I want to win and I want to put on great matches (they are not singularly exclusive). BUT I DID BACK UP TOO MUCH. And I learned from that.

 

So what's the compromise? Moderation. I saw that Jay noted Kass's crazy kick combos after majors. Ain't against the rules, but moderation. I like corner chop combos, but moderation. Want to win, but want the guy across from you to enjoy the match too. That's what I've learned.

[B-17]

So now. Let's review the show again. We can review more than matches, yeah?

 

For example, the growing tag division is a highlight of Turmoil because it is showcasing so many different talents right now. I'm liking Jay Fury and Wrex because they feel like this ominous presence closing in on tag teams that do seem to come across as a bit too goofy and are in need of some seriousness to create a bit more drama.

[Bray]

Controversy aside, show was good. Tyler can bounce back from this, CJ is improving in the ring, the women's division is still going ham, just splendidness.

[Cort Marshall]

Alright so maybe I'm a li'l late on here. Just a li'l. It's 'cause I've been so busy being a productive member of society and helping the homeless and...

 

yeah I'm just a lazy hoe. Anyway, Turmoil rev-yoo!

 

Dragana's mouthpiece, who as far as I can tell is not an actual officer of the LAW! Gets in Aerith's face. Jahnny, Jahnny, you should know naht to do that, Jahnny.

 

Ashley pulls a face move and helps Quinn up. I have noticed these two seem to vacillate between alignments, like a lot of the less defined rooks. If I recall right, Moore was an arrogant valley girl, and Quinn was a shit-talker? Feels like the women's division is full of mean girls. Also the line "There are many fighters here who cause trouble." sounds like a Japanese game translation, tbh. Just a liiittle stilted.

 

Archer is an annoying cunt, just as expected. I hope Drago gifts him an ornery ocelot who likes to urinate on things...

 

I like how Flojo goes from likeable if autistic weaboo to FUCK YOU, BETCH in seconds. See what I mean about mean girls? Seems he's settling into the character better. Stixxx as always talks the mundo garboni, let's see if she can put up or if Flojo will shut her up!

 

Celtic Dragons and Code Terror with a great promo here, still putting over the box stipulation. This is the kind of classic wrestling shit I just eat up, where wrestlers would go around after losing a hair-vs-hair match like it was the greatest shame a man could suffer. By god, I've been Beefcaked! Kill me now, Gene! Kill me! A cool stipulation introduced, too, with a singles match between mystery competitors for the right to choose a stipulation for the PPV! I guess that means I'm not doing an EXTREME RULEZ tag anytime soon.

 

Valk with more build back to her return. Better watch them painkillers, champ, it'd be a shame for you to end up fat and wacked out on somas. Resident Evil is NOT a valid medical training course. Though... green herb does help. Just ask RVD.

 

Oh shit! Bray and Ace attack CJ! Why, Bray, why! He's not employed by EA! Don't do this! The man has a family! Some of them illegitimate but a FAMILY!

 

Archer and Austin pussy out. Good, classic heel work. And they can actually back it up in-ring, too, so they're not Rick Martel/Honky Tonk man kind of escapist fall guys. They CAN do it the hard way, they just don't want to. Cause they got NO RESPECT.

 

Jehst makes me feel guilty cause he reviews everything, like if a sparrow farts in OCW he'll make it look good. But I missed his whole... dramatic hollywood action movie debut 'cause I was just kinda cruising without watching at that time. But his promos are very solid, and I like his flamboyant camera-hogging self-absorbed metrosexual gimmick. Dunno about that Hollywood Mauler name, though. he's not a full heel, since he seems to be courting the admiration of the fans... but he's not very humble either! Good character by another star rookie.

 

Random match note: I like how Stixx's kick transitions into that crouching signature. Though it might be counted as a ground move...

 

O'Donnell is gonna kick Bray in the Dragon Balls. Looking forward to this confrontation, as long as Bray don't retire to go yell at anime again!

 

Hilarious, fantastic RP for B-17. I'm kinda pissed cause I thought our tag promos were gonna walk away with funniest shit that night but here comes Captain redemption, Flair-ing all over the nursing staff with sudden nakedness and penis-grabbing. Also his hair is the source of his power? Or was it a wig? Or did they just think it was a wig and tear off his scalp like some kind of fucking animals? How weird does his big-ass cranium look with no hair? Like a bald Jimmy Neutron? Also since when does Mugen know how to be a doctor? Did he have to save a jobber's life lest he be charged for killing a man in the ring?

 

Wrex and Fury with a rare for OCW convincing serious promo. I really like how Fury intersperses his english with... spanish? I'm not a language guy. Anyway I can just hear how disdainfully he addresses the crowd. Scumciety is a great tag team name as well, and they look like a real team instead of two CAWs. Just have an aura of badass on them.

 

And we have an impromptu main event with SIG HEIL VOLKSVAGEN JA JA Wrex vs. Ricky "The Liability" Ragnarath. Not a match guy but the shit that goes on in this one goes a long way to show why Ricky is over despite not promo-ing for shit. Something crazy always happens. Wrex dishes it out confidently as usual, but sometimes you just take a leg drop to the back of the neck. VERY HEEL finisher steal and win by Wrexington Gassem III.

 

And we close out with the only competent GM in wrestling history besides maybe Bullet Bob Armstrong, Malu, as he vows that Archer and Trance won't get away with their BS for long...

 

Good show lads. Didn't watch all or most of the matches, but y'all know I'm an RP guy.

[Wrex]

Wrexington Gassem III.

 

I dont know how, but I need to use this on something.

Call a move the WG3?
