TLDR;

---

• An alternate history pro-wrestling game asking “What if the WWF never killed the territories?”
• Players pick and run their own promotion.
• PC and NPC bookers make up the “NWA” ruling committee.

In Character Info;

---

The year is 1990 and in the world of pro-wrestling the NWA still continues to rule the territories. With no WWF monopoly, the territory system is still intact with both regional and national televised events controlled by the NWA’s ruling board. While each promotion is given a seat at the table, only the truly influential and powerful members get a say in booking the champ. Every promotion vies for a chance to put that championship belt, the fabled “Ten Pounds of Gold” on their best wrestler’s waist, but only those who know how to play the game can actually see it through. To the marks, the competition is in the ring, but in reality the competitions are in the lockers, in the rental cars on the way to the next house show, in the smoked filled back rooms where champions are made, and championships are won and lost.

---

The game will work essentially as a combo of written prose and a little bit of tabletop dice rolls in the form of orders.

Orders

The procedures for this game will be fairly simple. You send orders to me.. The orders will then be rolled and presented by me (or another GM) in an update. Each round of orders will be the span of one year. Orders work as thus: each promotion is given one large focus order and three normal orders. The large focus order will always succeed to a degree, but it can only be used internally (having your promotion gain a new TV program is okay, having your promotion take over another territory is not) and the three normal orders can be used for things like pushes for your top stars into the NWA title scenes, gimmick changes, or even poaching talent from another territory.

Booker: Paul Cornette

Booker Bio: Paul was previously working for another territory called Florida Wrestling Alliance (FWA). Working there as a booker arranging matches while also working on the different storylines going on. Although he felt that the higher-ups were not booking and taking care of the wrestlers. Leaving this territory and moving to work with Memphis Wrestling. During this time he became more involved in the booking process. Learning more about the wrestling business and how to manage a territory during this period. A friend of his had told him that he was creating another territory with famous wrestlers from other territories joining. Paul soon left the MW and with his friend created Southwest Wrestling.

Paul used his knowledge of the business to slowly build up the company. Hiring more well-known wrestlers, and making sure that each show would be entertaining. And also making sure everyone’s egos are in check.

Hello.

Let's see what Jim Cornette says about this sheet...



That's his way of saying

@Byrd Man

Thanks Corny. Here's a banana.

@Byrd Man

How many people do we need before we start this show?

I was hoping for a few more but i may say fuck it and roll. I already have the opening post written, I'll probably get it put up by Friday

IC thread is open

IC thread is open

I'm gonna start work on a post.

I was planning on putting in an application a week ago, but life happened. Now that life has settled down a bit:

Name: Heart of Dixie Wrestling
Territory: Alabama, east Mississippi. Shows (mostly) run out of the Gadsden Coliseum, an all-purpose sports complex, gym, and rec center in Gadsden, Alabama.
Style: old-school Southern rasslin'
Television: NWA-HDW Saturday Night Special, airing at 11pm Saturday nights on CBS-affiliate stations in the surrounding counties
Promotion Champions:
Heart of Dixie Champion: "Action" Jack Macklin- a muscle bound hunk now well into his forties, Action Jack was at one time the hottest up-and-coming contender in the NWA...until he got injured and Mighty Morgan took his spot. Macklin is a shell of what he used to be, and while he puts on a happy face for the fans, inside he's a deeply bitter, resentful man.
HDW Tag Team Champions: The Hollywood Express. A pair of cagey heels who know every dirty trick in the game, "Nasty" Nick Rogers and "Handome" Dan Henshaw used to terrorize the larger Georgia territory along with their arch-rivals the Rockin' Rebels. Once the Rebels broke up, however, the Express have been floundering, and are trying to revitalize their career.
Queen of Dixie Champion: Princess Pauline McLarty. A 20-year-old beauty pageant contender who is only there because her father, car dealership tycoon "Big Bill" McLarty, is a lifelong mark who pays HDW's bills.

Promotion Top Stars:
"The Outlaw" Bart McCall: an aging cowboy wrestler and former NWA Champion, everyone respects and reveres McCall as a legend, just as much as everyone knows the Outlaw's best days are far behind him.
"Disaster" Don Murdock: a 400-lb biker with a questionable past, Disaster Don has been HDW's top heel for years. Don is fiercely loyal to HDW, and doesn't like that the title and the spot of head Booker have both gone to "tourists" from up north.
Ricky Romeo: a good-looking rookie talent, Ricky Romeo is something of a local heartthrob, but hasn't really found his character yet. Most people agree he's only here until he's ready to move on to a bigger promotion.
"Rocketman" Shawn Dillon: a high-flyer and former NBA hopeful, Dillon is a reliable fan-favorite who struggles with cracking the main event. Shawn suspects he's being intentionally held back because of his race.
Mad Maxie: another rookie with a "crazy mental patient" gimmick, Mad Maxie is actually Maxine Macklin, Action Jack's daughter. While she was initially happy to follow in her dad's footsteps, she's beginning to resent only getting opportunities because of her dad, and is struggling to find her own identity out from under his shadow.

Booker: Dennis "Sonny" DeAngelo
Sonny DeAngelo started his career in the movie industry in the 1970s, working on low-budget action flicks, corny daytime soap operas, and trashy pornos. While he's always done low-brow work, he nevertheless takes the creative side of his job seriously, as he sees it as the only "honest" art there is, giving people the cheap violence and sex appeal that everyone wants on a primal level. In the 80s, Sonny found himself working for the NWA in the New York territory, and found it a natural fit. His proclivities for drugs, cheap sex, and gambling made him popular with the boys in the locker room, but also got him in trouble with some very shady people. When the NWA began to clean up its corporate image, DeAngelo was one of the first people on the chopping block.

Looking for work and wanting to put as much distance between himself and the shady types he owed back North, Sonny traveled South and found a rinky-dink rasslin' promotion in Alabama, somewhere he could ply his trade as a creative genius of the low-brow arts without drawing too much attention to himself. He befriended the promotion's money-man, the boisterous and dumb-as-a-brick Big Bill McLarty, and before Big Bill knew it Sonny was the head Booker of Heart of Dixie Wrestling.

Over the last year, however, Sonny has started to realize he may have bitten off more than he could chew. Heart of Dixie was always smaller than the larger Georgia territory, but now the Atlanta shows are starting to move in on their turf. The crowds simply aren't as interested in the old-school Southern heroes as they used to be, especially since most of them are getting old and fat and dysfunctional, and any up-and-coming talent is quick to get poached by Atlanta. HDW can barely afford to keep the lights on, even after squeezing more money from Bil Bill- and worse, Sonny's "friends" from up North have caught up with him. Both HDW and Sonny himself are on borrowed time, and if things don't change quickly, neither one might live to see 1991.

Stone Cold, if ole Andy is approved go ahead and hit Eric Bischoff with a stunner.



HELL YEAH!

Approved.
