NEWZ UPDATE - March 28, 2010

NEWZ

  • The DCWL on SPW will soon be on the air! This upcoming Ascension, Molly Molotov will travel to Germany to take on homeland favorite Michaela Von Neumann as she makes her DCWL debut! Matches soon to follow are doozies: Buzzsaw will take on Sledge in a non-title bout These two blue collar grapplers have been circling each other ever since Buzzsaw's DCWL debut and next month they will get it on in a title match. Also coming up will be a match between Joe Pansac and Benito Brown. Brown didn't endear himself to Deadman at Cornerstone Revolution V and a match has been scheduled to settle their differences.
  • Time for a hiring spree! Kyle Hayden's creation of a booking committee has caused a bit of an administrative shake-up and we're seeking applications. Blaze Crimson's promotion has opened up a position of roving interviewer, and Referee #4 is stepping away from the ring to pursue a career where things don't explode. The booking committee itself is looking for a fifth body to fill a vacant seat and cast that all-important tiebreaking vote (if things come to that point).
  • Dan Clear is physically unharmed, but from all indications, he's gone into hiding following the incident at CR5 with Joshua Brantseg. As of the date of this writing he is listed on "administrative leave."
  • At some point, Joshua Brantseg acquired a manager's license before they became publicly available and he is officially listed as a manager.
  • The Danger Drive mentioned taking place at Dangerous Quest is expected to be a hybrid handicap match gauntlet... type... thing. Back in the Old Days, "Demented Quest" would feature similar-styled tournaments and specialty matches of an equally grueling nature. Time to grow some hair on your chest, son.
  • Joe Pansac is set to take on the DCWL Grand Champion at Dangerous Quest in a landmine florescent light tube deathmatch. The champion is expected to be American Freebear, who retained in the hour-plus main event of Cornerstone Revolution V. However, Freebear is expected to make one more title defense before DQ, and the committee is looking for top shelf DCWL opponents to impress SPW viewers.
  • In addition, Sierra Browne will be defending her DCWL Sirens Championship against Mina Eyre at Demented Quest. A Trios title defense is expected to be announced in coming days as well.
  • So why was Jackson Hunter laughing after his crushing loss to James O'Connor? Jax is tight-lipped, but has requested an opportunity to address the situation at Dangerous Quest.
  • GRRR Guy has named eight of his students as being ready to be called up to the big time; stay tuned to the blog and message board and you can tell us where they stand on the suck-to-rule scale!

GNUS

  • Well, here it is: the hiatus. You'll be hearing from me a little more infrequently over the next couple of months as we sort out internets, Googles, etc. I will, of course, keep you up to date on our SPW matches. With no WotW for a little while, I highly encourage you to make use of Them's Fightin' Words. I'm also going to be encouraging one flash per handler per week to appear on the blog; send 'em to the usual address. Keep in mind I'm not going to proofread for you*, so be sure that what you're submitting is WotW-quality stuff.
  • When you get booked in to an SPW match, you're welcome to submit a *short* flash in front of the DCWL backdrop. Like the more old school wrestling shows where you have to get your point across in twenty seconds and get out before cutting back to the match. SPW stuff will be cross-posted to the blog as well.
  • Time to overhaul that stinkin' FAQ! Suggestions on what to include and what to cut are welcome.
  • I'm hoping to bring in a few more handlers in to the fray by including managers. In short order I'll be introducing a managerial app so we can get some people to take on the unhandled characters and give them a bit of a push to the Main Roster. If you know any budding Jim Cornettes, Bobby Heenans, Lou Albanos, or (to a lesser extent) Sables, send 'em this way!

* Asking me to proofread is like asking Helen Keller what she thinks of your rock opera, anyway. Not exactly a guarantee of quality...
