Boon Posted March 19, 2016 Report Share Posted March 19, 2016 Hit a bit of a creative block gents, so haven't posted up any shows. Going to have a think about what too do... I've seen a lot of this as I have done these types of projects. The best advice I give is to plan an event in 6 months and then work backwards. I think you have done that with the whole WTBS stuff, now it is about finding another event that is important to get to. For me... I have the big return of Ted Dibiase this week which is a major point, the next is the tag tournament, and then going from moment to moment and building up things from there. It's not so much the booking, I think I've got just too much, and want to scale back, so may look to loan away a load of talent so I can give everyone a run that's meaningful. Personally I was more happy with a roster that wasn't so stacked, like when we started out, so may cut back and loan out or drop some top guys and go back to booking more rawer talent. Although it seems extreme, id rather book the Rock N Roll RPMs and Sword and Vines than Rock N Roll Express as an example the same with Dundee and Street, I'd rather book Brad Armstrong and The Flame. I'll have a think, I'll do a catch up post in the next few weeks and dish out the talent I rather not use. Sorry to hear about your news Kev.

LowBlowPodcast Posted March 19, 2016 Report Share Posted March 19, 2016 Sorry to hear about things Kev. Look forward to you coming back as soon as you can. Boon, I do think that the influx can be bad for some and good for others which is why I wanted to try and urge people that it was a choice. with the expansion of Mid South, I've been able to bring in some bigger names in different roles but in doing that, I've pushed away guys that got me to the moment. Mr. Wrestling II is a prime example of a guy I pushed big to get things going... but now he is in a completely different role. The big thing is how you use your guys. I think you have been very successful with a small promotion and running your local guys and putting over what you want to put over. If you are interested in dishing out talent, I will definitely look at working with you as Mid South has its foundational lobby with a revolving door of newcomers coming in here and there.

Boon Posted March 19, 2016 Report Share Posted March 19, 2016 I've just taken out 8 wrestlers and 2 manager I think I have what I want going forward. I really enjoyed what goc did with Southwest because it was some top talent but a load of great undercard talent that probably were punching above their weight. I will have to see how I can write out 10 roster spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowBlowPodcast Posted March 19, 2016 Report Share Posted March 19, 2016 I think everyone has ideas on how a territory can be run effectively. If this were real life, I know my money would be coming in from the house shows compared to television. With roughly 2 hours of television in my markets, my big draw is coming from setting up the big shows with the talent I've got. Not all my top talent comes on television week in and week out, but if you come to the shows you will see them in action. I don't think you need to invest too much time in a big "this is how/why this person is gone" type thing due to guys coming and going from the territories on a weekly basis at this point in time. Whatever is best for business though will end up being the way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JHawk Posted March 20, 2016 Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 A bit behind on TV and my big show but will be posting them sometime this week. After that, I'll end up taking a few weeks off. Getting burned out between this and a few other projects so aside from what is absolutely necessary, I'll be backing away until I get back from my Vegas trip next month. This is still fun for me but time is not an ally right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agentofenton Posted March 21, 2016 Report Share Posted March 21, 2016 Quick note to the crew, I will be on my Wrestlemania Trip to Dallas from March 30 through April 6. So I won't be posting shows. April 1-7 MACW will be on a break. However, I am writing a little ahead to make my Closed Circuit show be available before I leave, instead of after. So that is why I'll probably be a day or two ahead in posting the shows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainmakerrtv Posted March 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 Do we get an extra slot on our roster starting April 1st? Looking to make some alterations in my mid-card but want to hold off so I can make them all at once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowBlowPodcast Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 Yes, April 1st you have the choice... 3 person jobber pack, a manager, or a regular wrestler I also know that today has been 60 days with no contact for Pwsony... so I feel as though it is appropriate to move PerfectlyStraightedge into Stampede and let him take over. Any oppose? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainmakerrtv Posted March 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 I approve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boon Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 So I've decided that with the current talent I don't want to use but may bring back down the road, the fairest way is too do a draft for all the talent, where they will go on loan for a 3 month rolling contract, so if I want them back in then I could do after 3 months, or 6 etc. The talent involved will be... Rock N Roll Express (as a pair) Heavenly Bodies w/ Jim Cornette (as a trio) Adrian Street Bill Dundee Buddy Landell Baby Doll Ken Timbs Let me know what you guys think?

Perfectly Straightedge Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 Thanks guy for approving me in the ranks. I am excited for the opportunity to join you guys and hopefully I can be a welcomed addition to the team. I am pretty excited to get things up and started. So I will be working on some shows today, but I don't plan to drop anything till April 1st which will be the live return of Stampede Television. Thanks again for accepting me.

Are you keeping these people as roster spots on your roster then or would we be picking them up? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boon Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 I'm happy to keep them, people wouldn't need to drop roster, it's a loan after all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agentofenton Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 Even though it looks official already, I also would like to agree with bringing in Perfectly StraightEdge to the group with Stampede. Welcome to the Project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowBlowPodcast Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 I think the first thing to do, is to see how many people are interested in getting anyone from that loan list from Southeast. If you are interested say it on here and then we can work out the best way to get it done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Perfectly Straightedge Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 I am interested in Buddy Landell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainmakerrtv Posted March 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 I'd be interested in either of the tag teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowBlowPodcast Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 I know that Jhawk just said that he was going to be taking a break and Patrick even though I don't want to speak for him does have interest in the rock and roll Express. If we could just figure it out between us I'm sure it would work out to not even worry about it draft unless we want to go down that route and see who gets that top pick.

rainmakerrtv Posted March 24, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 I think we can probably figure it out among us without going to a draft. If someone else wants the RnR, I would gladly take the Bodies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LowBlowPodcast Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 So essentially if it worked out, Stampede would get buddy, AWA would get the bodies, Mid-Atlantic would get the rock and roll, and if it still suits everyone Mid-South would pick up Bill Dundee. It would be a three-month loan period starting on April 1st. Does that sound like it would work Boone? We would still have Adrian Street out there if somebody wanted to take him along with baby doll.

kevinmcfl Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 If we wanted to avoid a draft, I would be fine with Baby Doll. He would not be my first pick. The Heavenly Bodies, Buddy Landell and the RnR Express would be my first three picks but others are interested in them and to avoid problems, I would be ok with Baby Doll.

LowBlowPodcast Posted March 24, 2016 Report Share Posted March 24, 2016 I could also share Dundee with you Kev, we could work that out between us as it would be beneficial for both of us so you could get baby doll in Dundee I would just need him for a couple of specific dates. Would that work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
