Cool, glad you like him. Should I go ahead and throw him in the char section?

Yeah sure go ahead. What's his manager's name by the way?

@ZeusTheMoose

Oliver Grant. Just goes by 'Grant,' though. A little on the chubby side, and absolutely dwarfed by Drayden. Stands under 6' and has short blonde hair.

Hey just a quick note for ya Zeus, did you look over Michael yet? Hoping to get feed back and the okay to post him as soon as I finish in stuff related to the tag team with Jordan's character!

@Ciphra

Yeah once you add the tag-team stuff he's good to go. I do think if he had a move called "Blaze of Glory" it would be pretty cool, if it was his finisher he would send his opponent out in a "Blaze of Glory".

[Ciphra]

Lol yeah, well we'll see! He still has one to develop, maybe have him create it on the way to the championship match versing someone or something? Who knows lol we can talk about that happening in a PM when the time is right!

[Bright_Ops]

@ZeusTheMoose

Awesome. I look forwards to it.

[Ciphra]

On a random note how many people are we looking to have in this RP?

@Ciphra

As many as possible, there is no limit. As it stands right now, it would also be best if people had multiple characters. A roster of around 20 wrestlers would be ideal really.

[Bright_Ops]

@ZeusTheMoose

How many do we have currently?

[Bonesaw McGraw]

@ZeusTheMoose

How many do we have currently?

@Bright_Ops

Counting Michael Starblazer's tag-team partner we would have 8 it looks like.

Sexton Love (heel)
The Masked Magician (face)
Kintaro (face)
Sammy MacDougal (face)
Mitchell Wolf (heel)
Drayden (face)
Michael Starblazer (heel)
Michael's tag-team partner (presumably heel)

[Ciphra]

Alright no problem! I might as well just make a second guy at this point lol

Edit: Micheal's tag partner is Face actually! And also I'm going to play baseball today (Which should be amusing since I'm visually impaired and can't see well enough!) so I'll work up something for my second character either today or tomorrow!

[Something123]

We need more people so we can get a Bullet Club. Just sayin'.

I'm working on the tag-team guy, but I don't have a name or a picture...

@Jordan

If you want some feedback/suggestions, feel free to PM me what you have.

Once your wrestler is complete and once Kintaro's CS is done, we will have enough wrestlers to begin our first show. I pretty much have the tournament match-ups set.

@mattmanganon @Ciphra @Sloth Could you please post your wrestlers in the Char section so we have things a bit more organized. It's nice to see the entire roster in one place.

@ZeusTheMoose

On this note, Kintaro could easily have a face-heel turn the more Akira-like he becomes.

@ZeusTheMoose

On it, just got to get a few finishing touches done and I'll ship him over.

[Ciphra]

Lol wow, I hope you realize a lot of plots and stuff are formed IC wise and that an intro won't give away all of an RP, because let's be honest. IF it did give away everything what would be the fun of it all...?

[Something123]

GM,

Do you have any authority (lol) figures in charge of GPW? Cause you have like the "indy"-est roster. No offence. But it seems like that's what you are going for. And it's not like you get the big WWE style promos at local wrestling shows because the "plot" is just matches with a winner so beyond "I will beat this guy in the ring because I am great/he sucks/he interfered in..." there isn't that much I can see to write about, compared to like an anti-authority storyline, or a "guy in charge picked me to..." and so on.

@Lights

Indy wrestling is better anyway, isn't it? =p You can have good storylines without an authority figure, though I agree that they certainly can help. I think it'll work fine. ^^

@Lights

Unless you mean it's an indy roster because the roster is small, than I have no idea what you're talking about. Like at all. We have a roster of guys with various sizes and styles, not a bunch of spot monkeys like most indy shows. Also, there will not be an authority figure because that angle has been done to death. It was cool in 1998, it's shit in 2015. No offence, but it seems like you have a pretty limited perspective on wrestling angles. There are lots of stories that can be told outside of rehashing Austin vs. McMahon.

Jordan's almost done his guy (he PMed me about it) so look for the inaugural GPW match card top be posted shortly. I'll probably be creating our tag-team champions tomorrow, and at least to start we won;t have a midcard title. We'll focus on the World Title and Tag Titles for now and it's my ultimately goal to insure that everyone on the roster is involved in some sort of angle or rivalry so they can further develop their character. Also, if anyone is interested in joining even after we start running shows please do not hesitate, we will always be looking for new talent to keep the shows fresh.

face claim

Name: Mark Clifton
Hometown: Chicago, Illinois
Height: 6’ 5”
Weight: 250 lbs

Alignment: Face
Gimmick: In a mentor position of sorts over Michael Starblazer, he tries to get the younger guy to be less cocky until he’s gained some experience, but he recognizes the potential he has. A little older than the other people on the roster, he has lots of experience. Has a decorated career already and isn’t too interested in going for the heavyweight title, instead pursuing the tag titles with Starblazer.

Backstage, he’s a bit of a locker-room leader, and is happy to put over younger talent when necessary.
Entrance Music: boop
Entrance Description: Very simple entrance, nothing too fancy. Just walks down and highfives the fans on the way down.

Wrestling Style: Technical
Finishing Move: Sharpshooter, Double armed DDT
Signature Moves: Arm drag, classic suplex, butterfly suplex, dragon sleeper, diving headbutt, small package, European uppercut

Here ya go.
