Much appreciated, pariah! The creative aspect has always been my weakness as a promoter, as in my past feds I've tended to just focus on the matches which has led to an empty feeling regarding everything else happening around the ring. Again, your reboot fed structure has greatly helped me to see how it can be done without getting heavily involved in the scripting aspect.
Since Jack Hood wasn't part of the Early Classics set (he was included with the COTG Genesis graphic novel), setting up a feud with Screw seemed to be the best way to use him. Glad to hear you're enjoying his introduction thus far!

GWF 4 (2074.04) Deimos Intergalactic Arena, Mars
Commander Sam vs. Torpor Commander Sam defeated Torpor with STAR SPANGLED BANNER at 2:49 Match Rating: 1.00 Match Notes: Sam takes control of the match after a Torpor mistake and quickly hits his finisher for the win. However, Torpor attacks Sam as he’s celebrating with the fans after the match and drives him shoulder-first into the ringpost. Security personnel pull Torpor away from Sam before the Cygnusian is able to do more damage.
Dorado Sundown (Blacklash and Bullwhip) vs. CrossCurrents (Thetis and Vortex) Bullwhip defeated Thetis with TWELVE O’CLOCK HIGH at 2:16 Match Rating: 1.00 Match Notes: A quick tag by Blacklash after a heart punch followed by Bullwhip hitting Thetis four consecutive times with his finisher results in a quick, decisive win for Dorado Sundown.
Screw vs. Ricken Prince Screw defeated Ricken Prince with a piledriver at 8:12 Match Rating: 3.00 Match Notes: A hard-fought battle between two POW rivals ends after a breathless Ricken Prince is rolled back in the ring by his opponent after hitting the guardrail ringside. A post-match handshake between the rivals is interrupted by Jack Hood, again jumping the guardrail from the seating area. Security personnel, on high alert and posted at ringside for the match due to Hood’s actions at GWF 2, prevent Hood from getting into the ring. However, Screw jumps off the top turnbuckle onto Hood ringside, using his old SCREW U finisher, which Screw hadn’t used in years due to the wear-and-tear on his body. With the crowd going crazy, security manages to pull the two men apart.
GWF Tag Team Title tournament – final Paladin Power (Moonstrike and Solar Flare) vs. The Mensans (Cordsar and Trotarus) Moonstrike defeated Cordsar with PALADIN DROP at 10:29 Paladin Power win the GWF Tag Team titles Match Rating: 4.25 Match Notes: A thrilling match, featuring action in the air, on the mat, off the ropes, and outside the ring. Cordsar attempted a backdrop as Moonstrike was coming off the ropes, only for the Titan to counter with a piledriver and his finisher. Solar Flare prevents a pin save from Trotarus, and the GWF’s first tag team champions have been crowned. As the Titans are being awarded their newly-won tag team title belts by Omega and Morpheus in the ring, Dorado Sundown appear ringside and demand a title shot. Morpheus laughs and tells them they’ll get a title shot… when they’ve done enough in the ring to deserve one.
GWF Galaxian Title tournament – final Omega (w/ Morpheus) vs. Torin Caelum Torin Caelum defeated Omega with CAELUM’S GRIP at 4:31 Torin Caelum wins the GWF Galaxian title Match Rating: 2.00 Match Notes: As Omega and Caelum wrestle in the ring, Blacklash attacks Morpheus ringside. With Caelum down in the ring after an Omega COSMIC WAR DANCE, and the referee checking on the fallen Caelum, Omega climbs to the top turnbuckle for a deathjump maneuver. Bullwhip appears from through the crowd, viciously whips Omega in the back with his whip, and just as quickly disappears back into the crowd. Omega falls off the top turnbuckle into the ring, to the surprise of the referee, who heard nothing over the deafening screams of the crowd. Caelum recovers a few seconds later and, surprised to see Omega lying face down in pain on the mat, simply shrugs and puts Omega into his finisher for the win and the title.

Although it's kinda cool to see Torin as the inaugural champion, I'm not sure he'll be all that satisfied when he watches the replay... Not a pretty way to claim the title and I'm sure a rematch won't be long in the making... Dorado Sundown are eager to make their mark as the big bads of the federation and did quite the job here...
Congrats to Paladin Power on their own title victory... They are an exciting duo and hopefully we'll be treated to a decent run...
Plenty of superb action and the storylines are coming along nicely... Looking forward to the next installment... Excellent work!

GWF Ringside Torin Caelum should have been ecstatic for being crowned the 1st GWF Galaxian champion. Instead, after seeing the footage of what occurred, he was sickened and attempted to return the title belt to the GWF, saying that winning in that manner was not honorable. Omega and Morpheus refused his request, saying that his title win was final and that he indeed is the champion. Caelum vowed that his goal as champion is to bring the honor to the title that Dorado Sundown’s actions have taken from it, and he immediately offered Omega a rematch for the title, which has been signed to occur on GWF 6.
Sickened by Blacklash and Bullwhip’s constant interference in matches in which neither man is competing, Omega and Morpheus have threatened to permanently suspend them if they continue to do so. Singles matches between the four men have been signed as the co-main events for GWF 5.
After trespassing again at GWF 4, Jack Hood was cuffed and ready to be sent to jail again. However, Morpheus convinced Omega not to press charges. Instead, he has an idea which would benefit the GWF… an idea that would make Screw and GWF fans very happy… an idea that was actually Jack Hood’s. Now the question is whether Hood actually lives up to it.
Commander Sam suffered a slight shoulder injury due to Torpor’s post-match attack at GWF 4, which doctors have informed him will keep him out of action for a card or two. Sam, being the angry young man he is, has vowed to get back into the ring immediately against his enemy. A rematch between the two has been signed for GWF 7.
With GWF Galaxian and Tag Team champions now crowned, rankings need to be done to determine who the top contenders for each title are. The results of the matches over the next few cards will be important in determining these rankings.
The matches signed for GWF 5 are:
Bullwhip vs. Omega Blacklash vs. Morpheus Defiance vs. The Mensans K.O. Keller vs. Santon Ricken Prince vs. Torpor
A lot of bad blood already exists in the dual main events… will the co-owners get some revenge against Dorado Sundown for their antics thus far in the GWF? Defiance, meanwhile, gets the rematch they wanted against The Mensans, with the potential for a shot at the GWF Tag Team titles to the winner. And rounding out the card will be two singles contests to help towards determining the #1 contender to the GWF Galaxian title.

Not a pretty way to claim the title and I'm sure a rematch won't be long in the making... Reading my mind there, pariah! The quick finish threw me for a bit of a loop... I had to figure out a way to make it happen and not have Torin Caelum look dishonorable.

GWF 5 (2075.01) Deimos Intergalactic Arena, Mars
Ricken Prince vs. Torpor Ricken Prince defeated Torpor with a Samoan Drop at 5:41 Match Rating: 1.50 Match Notes: Ricken Prince again dominates Torpor, who continues to struggle in the ring early in his GWF career.
K.O. Keller vs. Santon K.O. Keller defeated Santon with THE TEN COUNT at 3:02 Match Rating: 2.00 Match Notes: A rematch of their first round match in the GWF Galaxian title tournament. In an exciting, albeit short, match, Keller stuns Santon with a heart punch, a perfect set up for his finisher.
Defiance (Blood and Jammer) vs. The Mensans (Cordsar and Trotarus) Trotarus defeated Jammer with MENSAN LOCK at 28:15 Match Rating: 5:00 Match Notes: A match of the year candidate, even though 2075 has just begun! A back and forth encounter that threatened multiple times to get out of hand, with all four men in the ring for large portions of the match, but the referee somehow was able to maintain control. Trotarus was able to gain control at the end of the match, and after a succession of offensive moves (and aided by his partner preventing a much-needed defensive tag by knocking Blood off the ring apron) landed his finisher for the win.
Blacklash vs. Morpheus Morpheus defeated Blacklash with TRIP TO HADES at 12:05 Match Rating: 4.00 Match Notes: Morpheus survived being hit with Blacklash’s RUSTLER’S STAMPEDE finisher twice early in the match and then proceeded to take the attack to Blacklash in a particularly vicious manner, hitting his TRIP TO HADES finisher four times during the match, yet Blacklash would kick out of the pin attempts. After each kick out, Morpheus threw Blacklash outside the ring, and the referee nearly disqualified Morpheus all three times for attempting to hit his opponent with a steel chair. During the last of those three attempts, Bullwhip interfered by grabbing the steel chair out of Morpheus’ hands, only to have Morpheus punch him, grab the chair, and hit him over the head with it. He would then throw Blacklash back in the ring for a fifth and final TRIP TO HADES for the win.
Bullwhip vs. Omega Omega defeated Bullwhip with TOMAHAWK THRUST in 3:10 Match Rating: 2.00 Match Notes: Bullwhip, clearly affected by the steel chair shot he took from Morpheus during his attempted interference in the previous match, was no match for Omega. Omega reversed an attempt by Bullwhip to hit him with the timekeeper’s bell outside of the ring, and then hit him with a clothesline off the top turnbuckle before hitting his finisher for the win.

Solid one-two punch by Morpheus and Omega to close out a pretty intense show... Not the way Dorado Sundown wants to proceed if they're out to make a name for themselves...
Loved the Keller vs Santon rematch... Perhaps these two should battle it out in a series... Could sell a few tickets...
Fun stuff, as always!

Funny you should mention a series of matches... I'm already planning on having something in my next GWF Forecast, which I'll post later, but not for the 2 competitors you mentioned...
Regarding Dorado Sundown, an earlier Forecast of mine may have hinted at their future plans...

GWF Ringside In the wake of their victories over the members of Dorado Sundown at GWF 5, Omega and Morpheus now find themselves separately focusing on the GWF Galaxian title. Omega has his rematch with champion Torin Caelum scheduled on GWF 6, while Morpheus’ impressive victory over Blacklash has him squarely in the hunt for the #1 contender spot and a potential title shot of his own. However, they are both aware that their battle with Dorado Sundown is far from over.
As for Dorado Sundown, Blacklash and Bullwhip stated in an interview that they are fully refocusing their efforts to take over the GWF by first winning the GWF Tag Team titles from champs Paladin Power. The champs, meanwhile, have a full plate on tap: a nontitle match scheduled against K.O. Keller and Commander Sam on GWF 6 (a reward for their victory over Dorado Sundown at GWF 3?), followed by a title defense against the team they defeated for the titles, The Mensans, on GWF 7. Cordsar and Trotarus’ victory over Defiance at GWF 5 was a match of the year candidate, and the team has been rewarded with a title shot.
Jack Hood no longer needs to trespass inside a GWF arena… because he has been officially signed to a GWF contract! In discussing the controversial signing of the violent POW legend with the media, Morpheus stated that the contract has special stipulations… the most important of which is that Jack Hood must wear a specially designed muzzle whenever he wrestles, which makes it impossible for him to use his controversial THE RIPPER finisher. Should he remove the muzzle during a match, he will be automatically disqualified, and should the muzzle come loose during a match, the match will be immediately stopped and declared a “no contest.” Also, any attempt to use THE RIPPER, in or out of the ring, will be deemed a violation of his contract and will cause his immediate termination from the GWF. Finally, a best of 7 series of matches between Hood and Screw has been signed to occur throughout 2075, with the winner of the series to receive a GWF Galaxian title shot against whoever the champ may be at that time. The first match of the best of 7 series will occur at GWF 6.
NOTE: Jack Hood’s “COTG Genesis” playing card has been modified to allow for his participation in the GWF. His Level 3 Offense finisher THE RIPPER is now a version of his Level 2 Offense move “Bloody Knuckles.” His finisher BLOODY KNUCKLES is a (+2) move. Also, his Level 1 and Level 2 Defense moves SHIELDED SMILE are now both “JACK HOOD – 1,” the Level 2 move of which has an additional roll to test if his muzzle comes loose. The first time he rolls that Level 2 Defense move, the additional roll is a 2 or 12 for the muzzle to come loose. The third time it is rolled, the additional roll is a 2, 3, 11, or 12, and every third time afterwards adds the next 2 numbers to the roll. Should that number be rolled, the muzzle is deemed to have come loose, and the referee stops the match and declares it a “no contest.”
The matches signed for GWF 6 are:
Torin Caelum vs. Omega – GWF Galaxian Title match Jack Hood vs. Screw – best of 7 series, match 1 Paladin Power vs. K.O. Keller and Commander Sam – nontitle match Morpheus vs. Santon Defiance vs. CrossCurrents
GWF fans are excited to see the first GWF Galaxian Title defense and the first match in the Jack Hood/Screw best of 7 series. Who will leave Deimos victorious?

Very creative 'muzzle' mechanic for Jack Hood... And I'm really looking forward to his Best of Seven series against Screw... Exciting stuff!
