Valmont's Vision

The final edition of Tourney Riot. Thank god! I won't comment on myself.

Opening video is pure classic. Law&OCW ftw!

 

Tag champs are laying down the law. They deny Kang, and Aries request for a rematch. Also, they make notice that IEDS are on thin ice, and their next tag match better be flawless. Good RP from the tag champs.

 

Bloodline are in confusion, as they don't know what's going on with Poe. Ever since the beating he took by me :), Poe has been acting different. Bloodlines doesn't know what to do or think of Poe, as him, and Smythe prepare for their tag match up next. Well written RP by Bloodline. I'm interested in what scars am I supposed to be getting?

 

Sadly, Irving is having some traveling difficulties. Mace get's Cross heated up, as Cross pulls double duty, and help's out Death Row tonight. Will Cross deliver twice in one night? Nice, and simple RP by Death Row.

 

Bloodline vs DeathRow 3.5/5 - Bloodline starts off strong, keeping Cross in for a good length at the beginning. Although, Cross held his own. Mace comes in, and plays aggressive, taking it right to both Poe, and Smythe. Bloodline uses good teamwork, as they make constant tags. Poe, and Smythe really do click well as a tagteam. Mace stays in the match for a while, fighting off the frequent tags by Bloodline, and their strong teamwork. I would say great teamwork, but after a nice chance of ending the match earlier, only for it to fail, as Cross takes out the ref while Poe actually breaks up the pin. Bloodline had good oppurtinitys to end it, but Death Row kept fighting, all the way until the end. Poe redeems himself by landing his fin to seal the W for his team, as Bloodline walks away without any red limb damage. I think the only flaw for Death Row's L was lack of teamwork. I know they've got chemistry, but it didn't show, and with Poe, and Smythe making a great team, you need to also have good teamwork if you want to stand a chance at beating them. Which is why I think we'll be seeing new tag champs at KOOCW.

 

It seems trouble in paradise, as Natlia can't breathe without Air....literally!! Air tries to escape for a minute in his bathroom in his apartment, while Natalia is sleeping. He's scared of marriage, and what his life is going to be like afterwards. Hilarious RP, although I kinda feel bad for him. That's one helluva fatal attraction he's got.

The MexiCAN delivers a solid RP. His inner voice makes a return. Carlos blames it for causing him the loss to VS. What's more to develope from the friendly neighborhood, Mexcican?

 

Aries vs ??? 4/5 - Come to expect a intense match. Alot of grapples, and reversals. Strikes were thrown, but not many landed. Everytime you think he has the momentum, Aries turns it back around on him. Aries played more of the soft, defensive style, compared to his opponent's rough, aggressive offensive style, which Aries got most of his offense from his reversals. Each wrestler fought hard, and reversed each other's finishers, until ??? picks up the W by submission.

 

We go back to the Bloodline lockeroom. Tiffany seems to be bored out of her mind, as Smythe doesn't make a very good baby-sitter. Solid, entertaining RP, thus further progressing whatever storyline between Rev Inc, and Bloodline.

VS, and Fausto share a RP together. Guy seemed to be having a therapy session, along with Coop, and Mr.Xavier knocked out in a pile of tables. VS suddenly interrupts, ready to start swinging with his baseball bat, as he orders Coop back to guard duty o n his stash. VS is about to attack Guy, when he gets met with a nice deal. Guy claims in 2 minutes that if VS isn't calm, that he can beat the holy hell out of him. After a moment of brief talking, VS closes his eyes, and starts to dream of things that makes him feel warm inside. Only to be fooled, when he realizes that Guy tricked him, and evaded the scene. Very hilarious RP, also further progressing the Guy, VS storyline.

 

Cross vs Kang 3.5/5- Kang starts off strong in the very beginning of the match, then it pretty much stays even throughout. Alot of strikes came into effect during the match. First to crack at red limb damage was Cross, but Kang was soon to follow. Kang's yellow limb damage saves him from getting hit by Cross's fin, twice. The match soon takes it outside, but only briefly. Cross finally gets that yellow limb damage to turn orange, and goes back into the ring with Kang chasing after him. Cross also finds redemption, as he lands his fin on Kang, and goes 1-1 for the night. I really didn't see a problem during the match. A solid, and aggressive match.

 

Next we have the Superhero interview, with none other than Virjin as the host, and he will be interviewing the FFB boyz! Well, apparently that sounded good on paper. It didn't go so well for Virjin, as he got served by the gangsters. I fount bit, and pieces funny during the RP. Although, I hated Malibu's Most Wanted.

Same RP from Cruz. Was there a mistake?

 

Chris Mania vs Smythe Da Wonder 3.5/5 - Some of the songs that played during this match was out of place, imo. A match that showcases two different wrestlers, yet equally great talent in the ring. Sheep fucker against loudmouth. Well, the match started off even between the two. Both sharing strikes, reversals, and alot of grapples, and quicks. SDW gets Mania red first in the match, and I was surprised that SDW finished without getting red. I predicted this match to be close, and it really wasn't, as SDW walks out with the W. No attire mention for Mania this week, HA!

 

Jack The Ripper is alive, and kicking ass, and burying people. He sends a message to The Air, with plans to not only kill him, but make it slow, and painful, as he'll take the title away from him. Creepy RP, and new gimmick, but it was very nice, and interesting. Keep it up.

Jay get's a surprise visit in his office by the returning, yet never gone, well sorta was, Kip Conrad. He comes in slurping on his slurpie with his girly friend, as he get's on Jay's nerves.Jay agrees to take a photo of Mr.Hollywood Kip, and his girlfriend, in order for them to leave his office. What happens at the end of the RP was disturbing, yet funny. Distrubing because it's not fair hot chicks go for other hot looking emo guys, I mean you might as well call those girls lesbos.

 

Trips vs Cruz 3.5/5 - Non-facepaint Trips against the MexiCAN with inside voices. A match that had some promise, ended up not disappointing. Cruz lately has been putting on good matches, and that's a plus. Trips looks like one of those guys that spends hours, after hours in the gym, or buys bodybuilding magazines. Anyway, the match was solid. Cruz put on a solid performence, so did Trips. We saw in the match that Cruz played the soft style, showing off his reversing, while Trips played offensive, and aggressive. The match was pretty close, but Trips stayed on the offensive side, and kept going after Cruz, and only finishing double orange. Nice setup near the end into the fin for Trips, as he picks up the W.

Versus vs Anton 5/5!!! - I won't spoil this match, or go into detail about it, but OH MY GOD, this was such a awesome match. I never saw that coming, I can't believe who won. Must see match!

 

Boldo vs Guy 4/5 - A match that alot of people have been wanting to see in this tourney. Match started off strong for both Guy, and Boldo, although Boldo had a little bit more momentum going for him. Boldo pounded on with strikes, and kept pounding. Both wrestlers played to their styles well, and especially Guy. Boldo was playing strong, but Guy kept fighting, and made a small comeback. Meanwhile, Boldo hits his rampage, and it was small, but effective, and I think it saved Boldo from a potentially strong offensive streak from Guy. The ending was markworthy with another WTF CUTTER. I really didn't see it coming, but always felt it coming, especially near the end. I think this match was intense, and solid. Both played very well, and I think Boldo's downfall for losing this match was that he was too aggressive. Sometimes it works out great, but against someone like Guy, you gotta be cautious. I don't know what version 2 was, as I only watched the first version.

[Adrian Bold]

Too Aggressive? I'm sorry usually my opponent doesn't irish whip or run at me every other move.

I called it like I saw it, being you the one that lost, and why you make it seem like too aggressive is a bad thing?

[Adrian Bold]

Being aggressive isn't a bad thing, but I changed my style of play for the sake of great FPR and that means moving forward, and no moonwalking. Meanwhile my opponent strarts to realize im in the lead so he although being fat runs and irish whips like a cruiser.

[Eddie Mace]

No mention of my 2 finisher reversals = no mark for vinnie

Everybody's gotta be a critic.

[Wesley Adams Poe]

yeah, but they were in VAIN, I mean he could have been an ass and mentioned you ate your own boot, but that wasn't nessecary. But Mace is right he had two finisher reversals.

[Versus]

I believe someone said that the "bloodline wouldn't make it past the first round".

 

For those people, here's your dinner:

Bold - 2

 

Running Moves

 

Guy - 7

 

Bold - 4

 

In the whips department there's a bit of a difference. Note that the totals do not include attempts and only things which were successful.

 

In the running moves department there's not a great different Guy only did three more so I don't see how you can complain there.

 

Guy's technical whipping ability IS included in the total of whips he did. However I don't see anything wrong with him using this as it's his perk.

 

It should also be noted that when Trance attacked Dangelo after Dangelo did the tech thing on the ref Trance had to leave the country for his own safety. Bold has committed the same offence here and that's the most burning fpr issue I seen in the match.

 

Also dunno about this but the brawler ground and pound I was sure had a limit of 3 strikes and could only be used once a match? Could be wrong here.

 

 

On a personal ethical level I think using the brawler ground and pound 3 times AND using the rampage perk is pretty gay. If you use your perks 4 times why can't Guy use his technical irish whip perk?

 

 

I'm going to watch Shark now for 1 hour so any replies to my post will not be acknowledged by me until I return.
