December 1994, the Global Wrestling Association is number one in the world for professional wrestling. The most popular weekly shows, a roster of household names, a range of titles, and an annual end of year pay-per-view, the Brawl of Fame.
This year marked the 9th annual Brawl of Fame, with the main event being a title match for the Global Wrestling Championship. The challenger was the star face of the GWA, the fan favorite Eddie Winters. The champion was the vicious monster of a man Titus Stonewall.
The match was initially brought to a close with Eddie's victorious clean pin following a fierce suplex combination. Eddie's celebration was short-lived however as the owner of the GWA Vincent Manson, flanked by a cadre of security guards, came marching in from backstage.
Vincent declared that the match was invalid, claiming he had evidence of Eddie attempting to buy off the referee before the match. The crowd was stunned by this declaration, and an infuriated Winters grabbed a mic and demanded this so-called evidence be shown. Vincent refused, calling it confidential and that his decision was final. He declared Eddie Winters was being released from his contract immediately and being removed from the arena. As the security guards surrounded and dragged Eddie away, he proclaimed he'd get back at Vincent for this, and the night ended with a smug Vincent Manson being booed and escorted away under a hail of trash and debris.
Following this, a mass exodus of talent left the GWA, either in solidarity with the slighted Eddie Winters, or out of fear they'd be ejected by surprise next.
January 1995, and its the first GWA broadcast since this incident is made. Vincent Manson announces every title has been vacated and reset, the roster filled with new, fresh talent, and a new era of the GWA begins with the first weekly show of the year, Monday Night Rumble.
So yeah, there's the setup, wrestling roleplay heavily inspired by the history of American professional wrestling. Looking for a solid cast to serve as core headliners around which we can collaborate for early storylines and stables, though I do have a grander narrative planned. If you're down for this, give me a shout down below.
