EL PARCA'S SHOW REVIEW

 

Malu's Opening Promo: First thoughts, wow I don't wanna be thrown by this man. Secondly, he is letting it be known he is indeed about that life. But it will be very interesting on how his reign unfolds and when/where the big man will get slayed. Good opening promo from a cool legend.

 

Match #1 Mantis v Damian Bourne: This match was pretty solid, I enjoyed the back and forth between the two. You can clearly tell the differences in FPR familiarity and ring awareness/comfort. Some small botches/missed oppourtunities Mantis did his best to hold his own. Nothing to feel ashamed off I think give him some more time/more practice he can really improve and become a very interesting character on future shows. Bourne, has this chip on his shoulder feel it seems like to me. I definitely enjoyed how they both tried to do certain "ah" spots and the better man got the W. All in all solid/decent opening match.

 

Promo #2 Asher: I won't lie I don't fully get Asher, BUT I did really enjoy his promo. I dig the super cocky all about himself feel. I totally wouldn't be upset if he constantly did this type of stuff week in and week out even if he didn't have a match. Gives himself more exposure, and gives new or settled faces come in and wanna shut this annoying dude up. Solid promo through and through the only thing I didn't like was the "Goodbye and Goodnight." You can make your own up I know you can that's my only con from this promo.

 

Match #2 TY Sparks Jr v Danny Watts: Second match was very interesting to watch. This match started off hectic, and then spiraled into more hecticness. I will say this was super flippy and shit but man did I dig it. I really thought the major from Ty's fin into the elbow from Danny was such a beautiful thing. The ending did kinda make me wut for a moment but that didn't ruin the match from me. This was a super solid fight between you two and I wouldn't mind seeing them fight again.

 

Promo #3 Valkyrie: Won't lie here, went from hey cool wrestling to some true crime shit. I was like what the fuck? I can't wait to see what else happens with this but Valk being Valk is a beast and was a really neat brief read. Good job Valk.

 

Promo #4 Terra: Wait.. did we just go from wrestling, to true crime, to a robbing? Well god damn they sure do don't lie about Turmoil what are y'all getting involved with over here? Girl just got beaten to hell and then a table thrown onto her and then kicked square in the face. Good lord I had to take a breather I feel like I just went on a rollercoaster of emotions with these last few events jeez. But solid read too btw!

 

Match #3 Loki vs TMTC Joopiter: Awful, Joopiter is an awful, awful man. And he's super weird.. I would have no biasness whatsoever. Nah but that was an interesting thing that occurred. Didn't expect Joopiter to go all Hulk and start tearing stuff about and brutalizing everybody in sight except for Mark Reese. I am curious to see how this plays out.

 

Promo #5 Soloman Caine/Justin Jehst: I will admit I am a sucker for the old school trash talk. And this, this right here quenched my thirst of it for this week. I totally dug the subtle jabs and obvious annoyances both men played on with one another. It was a very solid read and I am looking forward to their match which hopefully is a fight.

 

Promo #6 Jett Draven/Dennis Dillinger: Ahhh Jett I remember him! I liked that promo a lot. Fits him well, this is hopefully the start of something dominate and aggressive. Can't wait to see what the future holds for Mr. Dillinger and his newest client.

 

Match #4 Solomon Caine v Justin Jehst: Man.. what a match. I loved the constant shit talk between the two. My assumptions were right they just wanted to beat the holy hell out of each other until one of em wouldn't stand up. That was a nice ass match that's for sure. I was kinda wondering what was the purpose for the chair. I don't know if Solomon was trying to use it or just have it there for aesthetic spice for a slam or something idk. Either way the ref cock blocked those attempts pretty much. But either way Jehst came out the winner and that was a super nice match.

 

"WHO IS THIS" Segment: Not much to go off of for this, considering it is a 30 sec vid. I liked the song though.

 

Promo #7 Ashely/Empress: Emp getting rushed around for nothing but a shopping adventure. What a truly awful life to being living beside the fact that she is probably an undercover serial killer. I used to root for her but now, well how the hell am I supposed to root for someone who harms old people.. SAD!

 

Promo #8 Elsa/Dragana/Aerith: Well I guess some things are starting to be more clearly answered. At least.. well hopefully at least Terra will be okay. I'm quite surprised nobody in the area had heard any of the noise and wouldn't have called law enforcement sooner. But then again they probably knew who was in that building and were like "nah idc." Can't wait to see what comes of this story.

 

Match #5 Mistico v Jett v Jackman: I will not lie, I totally had Jett winning it here. He was DOMINATING the entire match and it slipped right between his fingers. Mistico played that match perfectly to how he held off the big men, and came in at the right time and Jett just was rolling outta the ring to secure the W. Code seemed like his ribs were taking a NASTY beating but man that was an awesome match to watch good work gentlemen.

 

Promo #9 Code Jackman: Pre match promo showcasing how Code Jackman does not want to make the same mistake on Lution. Looks like Malu better watch his back as the ex champ wants his gold back. Also, why is Damian lurking around with a camera? Son just had a match earlier that night go rest homie.

 

Promo #10 Heather: I honestly don't have much of a reaction on this one. Heather is someone I wouldn't invite to my cookouts but I mean hey.. at least she won't be worrying about anybody other than Flojo right? Right..

 

Match #6 MAIN EVENT Valk vs Empress/Ashley Moore: This was a really nice storytelling match. I feel bad for Valk the fairytale she is writing everyone just wants to get in the way. Completely screwed over by Ted & Ashley she easily was robbed. Empress although she won has a lot left to prove against Valk if she plans on becoming the Women's Champ. ESPECIALLY, if she thinks Ashley wouldn't cash in her Future Investment even on her "Best Friend" great great match ladies that was an awesome Main Event!

 

Promo #11 Ending of Turmoil Ashley/Valk/Emp: Yep.. I am now reassured Empress is a murderer. Mr. Sensation needs to get her arrested ASAP. Poor Valk, suffering a highway robber of a loss & now not even being told what is going on with her parents. This is truly wrong and hopefully good overcomes evil when all is said and done.

 

Okay.. I'm done I kinda wanna jump off a bridge now. If you got this far I'll try and review the shows more often from my perspective. I'm not anybody perfect so bare with me if I don't know what is exactly going on in your stories all the time. Either way, a solid Turmoil that kept my attention with every RP & Match! That being said I'll have my RP of the Night & Match of the Night below good job Turmoil boys & girls!

I don't think I did a great job getting the point across in the "Who is this?" segment, so I'll just go ahead and say this...

 

Watch the RIOT promo (not a jab), and the segment is a fake out.

Quick notes!

 

As I said on twitch solid 3 1/4 outta 6!

With the RPS probably a 4 outta 6.

 

Ashey cut a semi decent promo, but just know cutting a promo is just half the battle, and don't think you are owed anything for just cutting a promo.

 

I popped for the ransom note, good use of graphics!

 

I like Danny Watts but as we said homeboy needs to figure out what he wants to be ( I think he doing that now) cuz he says he 19, muthafucka looks 40!

 

I like the pairing of Dillinger and Jett, or as I say, I don't hate it!

 

The actual triple threat was very decent, Misty with the MISTIROLL (i dont know what its called) outta no where is a nice surprise. Jett isn't hurt by this and honestly neither is code yakman

 

My Match of the night goes to SALAMI and Jehst, a lil long but still shorter than most rookie opening debuts.

 

I didn't like the Main Event, it felt over produced..... Moore spent most of the match squatting (holding back a doo doo?) and removing the turnbuckle in front of ted. It's really super simple. You aren't a guest ref, I legit said this special ENFORCER! This woulda worked with Ashley being on the outside and grabbing valks feet, or having empress toss valk outside then ashley could beat the dog shit outta her and toss her back in. HELL valk could toss empress outside and moore could pick up Empress duster her off and toss her back in (the audacity) I mean as I said coulda also had Ashley run in periodically or something. The turnbuckle spot actually worked once! now imagine if ted didnt spend most of the match fucking with turnbuckles.

Instead this looked like an awkward video game instead of a match.

 

End RP Implied stuff is ok I suppose but I also didn't dig this, we had a lot of goofy shit happen over the years. I'm confident everyone involved isn't a bone head so I will let it play out. Because there are diff types of heat, good heat, legit heat, (just fuck off heat)

In the event that it goes pear shaped!(which to be clear I don't think it will)

Salami Kane is on a fantastic upwards trajectory. He hasn't hit that point where he's been forced into an alignment one way or the other because of fan reaction. I still want to see him lose.

 

Asher still needs some kind of involvement or direction. Reactions to stories or things that happen to you are important to evolving as a character, not just cutting the same promo every week. Getcha a running mate.

 

I planned to be involved in the triple threat match, but I was also happily surprised how good it turned out. Mistico slowly but surely heading back to Facestico with that entrance. For now he's just a competitive force who also needs some story direction.

 

Those that are active and informed should have known who teased to come out after Caine lost to Jehst. Salami interrupted his call out at Lution, now it seems Horsey is playing mind games.

 

Stealing from Jay. I didn't hate the finish to Danny Watts match. It does hurt TY Sparks a little bit as like even with a distraction he can't beat a fellow rookie, but good on putting over that Danny is a real force in the ring. I see a test in his future. Someone call Wrex. He's taking this Battle Royale win from R2G and turning it into a great rookie win streak. I need more consistency from that moveset in the future. You can be a 19 year old powerful prodigy and bully people, but try to move away from agile kicks or suicide dives/planchas if you are going to do that.

 

I won't go after Valk/Empress/Ashley for anything around the gimmick of that match. It's hard to do in this game. Coulda been better but the game is limited so it is what it is. Helps Empress continue to rise after a pinfall win vs the champion.

RUDO's Top 5 Takeaways:

 

So as I laid out last time, these will be 5 things that I remember off the top of my head after watching the whole show without taking notes to see what sticks.

 

1) Malu lays out the challenge for the CCW Championship. This is really an ideal situation for the title. If you're a worthy challenger you'll beat Malu. If you're not, the title remains in the hands of a beast. It needs that rub after quick changes the last couple PPVs. #strengthenCCW

 

2) I really did not get TYs entrance. He a good egg, but I just didn't get it. He's the Prince of Flight but doesn't go near the top rope in his entrance, and instead gets as close to the ground as possible with that weird V Dream in-ring stuff. Just didn't click with me and seems to change every time I see him. I need consistency to get behind a character.

 

3) Confused as to Mistico's alignment at the mo. Scumciety, imo, should be ultra-heels at this point, but Mistico comes out like a plucky face, it was weird to me, I dunno. If he's not in Scumciety anymore, or if he's breaking away (not sure, no RPs) then it makes sense but if not I dunno, seems disjointed to me. Grats on the win though, two tough people to play against.

 

4) No sign of Wrex. I miss Scum segments. IMO he's the top guy on Turmoil and the show is always lifted when he's on there. I dunno if he's taking a break or just didn't get round to RPing this week, but in any case it was noticeable that he wasn't there.

 

5) Heather turning up on Turmoil brings yet another layer to the Women's division, which is sorely lacking in heels, so this can only mean more feud matchups for us goodie-two-shoes people.
