Thomas (TK), Duke started off hot against Endgame, but ultimate lost to him as Endgame trapped him in the rolling Figure Four. Endgame would then go on to lose to Star Warrior instead.

ICW Card #2
Mensar v. Lance At-Las
After a double disqualification last card that saw Lance At-Las thrown through crates at ringside, the power of Mensar proves too much for At-Las who fails to put away his foe with two Martian Manhandlers. After Mensar wins with a Star Destroyer, he proceeds to hit two more before leaving.
Minister of War is walking to the arena with Aethran Overmaster, Brute and Massacre, but he seems to be taking a back seat to the Overmaster, almost in a fearful manner. After Overmaster enters the building, Brute and Massacre have the Leveler block the door, preventing Minister from entering.
Paganax v. Cyclone – Quarterfinals Heavyweight Title Match
Cyclone uses his speed to keep Paganax off balance, but the Rings of Fire wins the match for Paganax.
Second Realm v. Resurrection – Semifinals Tag Team Title Match
Second Realm shocks Resurrection with a quick pin following the Fall of the Mighty.
Mandrill is interviewed about his upset loss last card to Cyclone. Mandrill claims that based on tonight’s result, Cyclone was clearly lucky last card and will probably want to forget what happened. But next card, Mandrill plans on teaching him a lesson that he will never forget.
Wraith v. Lord Nexus Jr. – Quarterfinals Heavyweight Title Match
Tricks comes from behind Wraith on his way to the ring, attacking him with a chair. Nexus gives Wraith a chance to recover, but Wraith puts up little resistance as his is pinned by The Apex.
Maelstrom v. Balaal – Quarterfinal Heavyweight Title Match
The two monsters brawl around the arena, holding back no punches, but Balaal is able to get the Bite of the Serpent locked in to earn the victory and advance.
The Gladiators (w/Aethran Overlord) v. Upstart Punks – Semifinal Tag Team Match
The Gladiators manhandle the smaller Punks, but as the referee is distracted by Brute, the Punks are able to land Punked Out on Massacre to score the upset win. The Aethrans don’t take the loss well at all, and with their three on one advantage, they take down the Punks. Overmaster then hits them both with Dominance before being chased from the ring by Mopheus and Lord Nexus Jr.
Paganax v. Lord Nexus Jr. – Semifinal Heavyweight Title Match
Paganax storms past the Gladiators on his way to the ring where Nexus is waiting. Nexus is distracted long enough by the retreating Gladiators that Paganax hits a swift Pagan Void on him to score the quick victory. Paganax back up the ramp while Morpheus, who stayed at ringside, checks on Nexus.
Morpheus v. Balaal – Seminfinal Heavyweight Title Match
In another brutal bout, Morpheus survives multiple pin attempts by the quicker Balaal. But as a frustrated Balaal starts heading up the ramp, Morpheus catches up to him and backdrops him on the ramp. After throwing Balaal back in the ring, Morpheus hits him with a Natural Disater to secure the victory.
Second Realm v. Upstart Punks – Finals Tag Team Title Match
The Upstart Punks put up a good fight, but the beatdown they took earlier affects their performance, and Second Realm become the first ICW Tag Team Champions with Fall of the Mighty.
Morpheus v. Paganax – Finals Heavyweight Title Match
The two powerhouses take it to each other. Paganax piledrives Morpheus on concrete outside the ring, but it is not enough to win. Morpheus mistimes a corner splash which allows Paganax to land a sudden Pagan Void to become the first ICW Champion. As Morpheus struggles to his feet in the ring, the Gladiators appear from the crowd and surround him. But Lord Nexus Jr and Alpha Force head to the ring starting a huge brawl as we go off the air.

Sean, this is just great. I'm a sucker for feds that just mix all the cards, as I think that's some of the most fun you can have with the game, allowing for a great deal of creativity.
Keep it up, am loving how this is developing. I'm curious, how competitive was Morpheus with Paganax? Sounds like he did pretty well. Even with the enhanced abilities of the more recent wrestlers, I've found that the classic characters can hang with them pretty well.
Good stuff!

stu, thanks for the great feedback! I have collected so many cards over the years I just couldn't settle on one time period to work in. I never really put together a federation over the years. With small kids and work and stuff, I just never found the time. But now with the kids heading off to college, a job that isn't in retail anymore and more time on my hands, I finally have been able to break out the cards and start doing what I have been been dreaming of doing for many years! Morpeus was super competitive against Paganax. In fact, if PAGAN VOID wasn't such a destructive finisher, I am sure he was well on the way to beating him. I am in complete agreement. One of the fun things of mixing it up like this has been to see just how much I underrated the pre-2087 cards. I thought they were going to be just a nice to have part of my collection, but they have turned out to be some of the best competitors in the game! I am pretty sure Morpeus is not done with Paganax in this fed!

That's cool Sean, glad Morpheus was able to hang with the big man. Keep up the great work; I think you have a model that will work well over time, and you can keep it going due to that model. You've taken a massive scale project, and made it manageable. Really cool, keep it rolling, you're going to have fun with this.
Also, is "Lord Nexus, Jr." the current version of Lord Nexus that's in the CWF sets? I'm curious, because that's what I did with that card: I just changed it to Lord Nexus, Jr., to be Lord Nexus's son.
And congrats on getting the kids off to school!

Love this fed! Mix of old school and several diffent eras rolled into one....
I totally forgot about the Upstart Punks- I loved that team!
Mensar...was my "next big thing" and was totally a WRECKING MACHINE! One of my all favorite list and he was victorious!
