Year end report:
Overall, I’m pleased with how year two of Legacy of Gold went. I didn’t like how often the World Heavyweight title changed hands, though. Gama and Angle failed as long term champs. Savage and Inoki are probably my best bets in year 3. I'm not ready to bring Vader back just yet. I’m to the point where I don’t care who my champion is as long as they can hold the belt for 7 or more defenses.

I also didn’t think the fed felt particularly focused at times. I’m stepping up the PPV schedule to one every eight weeks in year three, with the final four weeks being the Gagne Cup tournament leading up to End of Days.

My main focus is going to be on USA Wrestling until the next set drops.

[TTX]

Go Brisco. Also nice to see Savage put down Magnum.

I'm hoping Brisco hangs on to the belt long enough for me to do Brisco-Savage for the belt.
