Switchblade is just on a roll.
The Gladiators have always been one of, if not my all-time favorite group. But, no surprise since the Road Warriors are my all-time favorite tag team!
This is fun stuff to read, Pariah. It is making me want to return to my EC fed (but I cannot, at least not right now).

Truly appreciate the wicked feedback, barflymike4ever and Mynnotaur... It's cool that Switchblade is having such an excellent run since we all know he leaves the GWF after 2120... Which brings up a fun dilemma for future consideration - How am I planning to handle a year end champion (or champions) that do not appear on the following year's roster? Interested to hear what my fellow promoters think... *Remember - I'm trying to stay as close to canon as possible... After the next show, I'll be running this fed's first Morpheus Memorial Cup Tag Team Tournament... My Cosmic Network fed runs an annual event with the same name... But, I like it so much that I brought it over... It will kick off with 16 teams, so it looks like some of the women will be getting in on the action... Full speed ahead! |

um...oops on Freaks end and Anivar stays on target. Minotaur seems to do well one on one with Strutter's attractions Epoch and Mann with a win with a lot of cheating Stars & Stripes retain over the SoD who had been doing well against the Titans but looks like they couldn't change gears enough to handle the patriotic pair Shann-Ra with a win looking to get back into reach for the women's title Gladiators cruh Titans and Reckless Kill Prey unseats Switchblade and becomes the IP champion and in the Main Event Endgame made defense #4 over Bloodline but his success is a curse as Massif makes a a 4-sided elimination. curses  |
