Riot 519

[Pugh]

Fuck ocw

[KANG DOC]

Alright, no time to waste, let’s get into these notes shall we? Felt good to be back into the swing of things here without a mountain of a show to read. Without further ado, here’s my notes for Riot 519:

 

The Incepti(nception)on

To be honest, the opening segment didn’t really do it for me.This was a kinda cheesy segment when I prefer my main event storylines to be more grounded and gritty. Like for instance, I just can’t see KD Angelo going on a radio show to do a rap, I feel like it just makes the inception seem like a comedy act, when they’re actually a really powerful force full of top guys/gals.

 

Doc vs Braddock

Fortunately, I managed to get the post match RP debacle sorted. It’s now available in the Promo Room, so I’m sorry if you got confused reading the RP with me, Ev, and KD, I’ll make sure it doesn’t happen again. The only thing I’ll say about this match is my FPR mistake with the extra attack, but I tried to even it out by letting Braddock hit a move on me, sorry about that! Other than that, it’s on to you lot.

 

Little message about grammar

Something I noticed throughout was the use of abbreviations in promos, please don’t do this. Seeing things like ‘thru’ in H2O’s promo doesn’t make character sense as I don’t get the impression that that would be how he speaks. Also noticed a couple of formatting and grammatical errors in the Ashley and Benjamin promo, and while it was good to see you staying active, please make sure you proofread and preview your work before it goes out, especially for those who don't speak English as their native language, otherwise it just looks a bit naff.

 

Blain vs Valk

Man, do I hate Valk’s pyro or what. That aside, Valk had some nice combos in this match, like the corner jumping kick into the float-over ddt. Also Blain drilling Valk with the big boot when she was doing the ‘Valk’ chant was great. Valk getting majored at the end into Blain’s finisher! Good shit.

 

Tre lays down the gauntlet

That’s twice in two weeks someone has staked their claim to the pride championship. I’m excited to see if this leads somewhere or if it was all just a coincidence. Nice to see Tre back into the swing of things and getting featured on riot again. Good shit.

 

Antonio Everrett vs KD Angelo

Quick note before we get into the match, Antonio EVERRETT is spelt wrong on the website and on the YouTube video. Two R’s, not one.

 

Of course I was rooting for my tag partner in this one, but even in defeat Ev had one damn good showing, if only he could hit that damn knee! Very enjoyable back and forth affair, either man could’ve won that by the end. Couple of nice moments in this one: Ev hitting the knees to the outside, KD with the apron powerbomb just for Ev to come back to beat the count! And the handshake at the end was a nice moment. Only thing I would say is KD was over-aggressive at times, a bit too much crappling for my liking. Other than that, good shit.

 

ALSO this should be the final time you see a weird cut after about ten minutes of watching a match of mine or Calum’s. Yake taught me how to use Mixer on Xbox to record so in turn I taught Ant, so we should be all good once it stops playing up.

 

Cort, Bobby and Shep rip into each other

Cort and Shep killed it being at each others’ throat in this segment, but I’m confused as to what Bobby Minio getting involved here means for the tag team picture. I was under the impression that it’d be Bobby and KD vs CQC at the clash, but with Bobby here either H2O or Bobby will have to pull double duty since it now seems like they’ll be fighting over the OCW Heavyweight and Pride Titles respectively. Confusing times. Other than that, this segment was written excellently and flowed well throughout.

 

Quartz vs ????

Well, this was a nice surprise. Quartz is by no means a small dude but my god Lee dwarfs him. This match pleased me aesthetically as both CAWs look awesome and this was a nice short match with some nice psychology thrown in there, with both men trying to out power-move each other throughout. This was a match I had no idea I wanted to see, a lot like the Drago vs Quartz match from a couple of weeks ago, good shit. Quartz picks up the win here and asserts his dominance as the superior tag team champion.

 

 

+ These twitter exchanges between Buddy Burns and MJF were great. A lot of the question marks I had for MJF’s character seem to be beginning to be answered here so that was good to see.

 

ME - Pugh vs Spider

A lot of nice exchanges to kick this one off. Couple of nice strike exchanges, then the leaning taught in the corner from Pugh! Couple more move exchanges, neither man getting a significant advantage then Hoot Strike! Nice bit of psychology with Pugh exiting the ring after a reversal to catch his breath but then he gets caught with a pughdigree for his troubles! Sneaky veteran tactics from Pugh to get the high ground then he falls short on the dive, LOL. Pugh kicks out the Khallas at one, TWICE. Pugh’s got the advantage here but PEPPERTON SLEEPER out of nowhere, holy shit. Pugh gets out, lands the pughdigree for the win. G fucking g.

 

MOTN: Pugh vs Spider, no doubt about it, what a match, my lord.

 

RPOTN: Cort, Shep and Bobby’s in ring segment has to take it for me. Excellently written, with a lot of intrigue concerning the Clash.

 

Overall, this show was a nice change of pace from the consistently massive shows we’ve been getting for the last few weeks. Surprised to see no Kass for the duration of this show, especially considering he’s been a staple guy for so long on Riot, but a well earned break nonetheless. A couple of issues here and there, but all in all a bloody good show. Nice one everyone.

Great feedback as always Doc.

 

The opening segment was the first time all of us got involved. When The Inception first came together (KD, Valk and myself Turmoil 215) It was a serious rp. Our rp at Devil’s Night was pretty serious as well. So with this one we exhaled a bit after having Bobby having his way with Pugh, Me beating Pugh (for the first time one on one) and Valkyrie ridding the demon.

 

A few of us wanted to do a “diss track” together giving shots at several guys and also to set up what could be the future. So it did have “Serious” Bars in it as Funk Flex put it. Which set up me and Valk’s encounter which was intense. Even writing it was intense.

 

But trust us Doc. We’re chippin’ this away slowly so our group doesn’t get watered down and boring. We try to give variety.

 

KD is a man of few words but some of promo video delivers a ton of dialogue from him and we tried to stretch it a little more considering many people want to hear more from the big guy.

 

Harvey still has The Baker Effect of him from his B2O days. He’s still only 27yrs old. Maturity is kicking in but his cockiness and disrespectfulness is still there.

If I give myself a haircut he’ll look like you impersonating me. Let it sink in.

 

Another note....

 

Last time you ME against me the bookers said “Welp, that was a mistake.” So how about you show your champion respect.
