Strangest circuits
JeepGuy | Posted on 01/22/08 at 23:04:16 What are some of the strangest/craziest ideas for a circuits you've run or thought about running? To kick things off, I thought about two strange ones - one is sort of a reality show using Madman Pondo and "girlfriend" Bridget the Midget and the promotion they are in charge of. Lots of goofy and politically incorrect stuff. The second one is Jack Knows Wrestling. The Jack in the Box near where I work has televisions and its own "programming". What if they produced a wrestling show? |
Hello Mamushi | Posted on 01/22/08 at 23:17:57 I had an idea for a wrestling circuit featuring religious and mythological figures from around the world. I've yet to run it, but I've made a bunch of exports for it. |
Scott | Posted on 01/23/08 at 01:09:58 I once ran a circuit based solely on wrestlecrap. All bad gimmicks, and storylines. (it was almost like TNA) Oh, and the fact that Jim Powers held the record for both the longest and most World title reigns spoke volumes. |

Hello Mamushi | Posted on 01/25/08 at 05:31:46 hahaha no, but I wanted to run an angle where Jesus had a big stable with all his apostles and then Judas made a HUGE turn and aligned himself with Satan and his stable consisting of his various classic officers of hell. also, I wanted to run an angle where Buddha and God teamed up, and God always got mad because Buddha was a pacifist, but then Buddha totally saves his ass using his pacifism and God becomes a Buddhist. :D |

rey619 | Posted on 01/25/08 at 19:57:57 I had a short lived circuit set in the Wild Wild West. It was called Dodge City Wrestling, and featured Austin Starr as a US Marshall, Human Tornado as a black piano player, Sandman as the town drunk, Necro Butcher as a butcher and Homicide as a dangerous mexican desperado. I think the two cards I ran are still available in the circuit forum. |

Rick Garrard | Posted on 01/25/08 at 21:42:04 have a group of bad guys roll into town... have the local good guy put together a posse that the sheriff says he can't do because he is the law. There is really a lot one could do with "wild west" storylines. |

Hello Mamushi | Posted on 01/25/08 at 22:54:28 here's a thought. it'd be interesting to take the fictional characters from old wrestling console and arcade games (like all the old various NES games, and Saturday Night Slam masters, Blazing Tornado, etc) and run a circuit with a database of all those characters. |

Scott | Posted on 01/25/08 at 23:34:07 Some of the Saturday Night Slam Masters wrestlers are available at the original TNM7 site (with the exports)! They are in TNM 6.2 though |
Vertigo | Posted on 01/25/08 at 23:59:14 King Slender. Amazon. So many good wrestlers could be a part of this. I've thought of it, just don't think I would have a lot of fun with it. I did about 4 shows of a Kinnukiman (M.U.S.C.L.E.) fed so many years back. |
Hello Mamushi | Posted on 01/26/08 at 01:22:38 I have many of them on firepro, does that count? :) First off, lets make a list of all characters that should be involved, for anyone that might want to take up such a challenge can do it right... Pro Wrestling (NES) Fighter Hayabusa Starman Kin Corn Karn Giant Panther The Amazon King Slender Great Puma 3Count Bout Terry Rogers Blues Hablam Roy Wilson Leo Bradlay Red Dragon Gochack Bigbomb The Gandhara Blubber Man Master Barnes Big Bomberder Blazing Tornado Eric Starbuck Daijiro Zama Baron Firebird Wolf McSchneider John Saigo Hayate Ho Long Jailbreaker Bullnoi Hizelshutat von Ludwig Tag Team Pro Wrestling The Strong Bads The Ricky Fighters (I dunno if each team's members has seperate names or if there were more characters than just the four) Saturday Night Slam Masters 1 & 2 Biff Slamkovich Gunloc The Great Oni Titanic Tim El Stingray Mike Haggar Alexander the Grater King Rasta Mon Jumbo Flapjack The Scorpion Victor Ortega The Wraith Rip Saber Black Widow Pro Wrestling (Sega Master System) The Crush Brothers The Orient Express The Mad Soldiers The Great Maskmen Mat Mania/Mania Challenge Dynamite Tommy (Player 1/You in the first game) Hurricane Joe Insane Warrior Karate Fighter Coco Savage The Pirania Golden Hulk HAL Wrestling Ryu Masaki Kansuke Yamada Kim Riki King Samson Death Monster Super Cyber Joker Big Crusher Tecmo World Wrestling Akira Dragon El Tigre Pat Gordon Rex Beat Jackie Lee Boris Chekov Mark Rose Julio Falcon Randy Gomez Dr. Guildo Blue King Wrestle War Bruce Blade Mohawk Kid Sledge Hammer Mr. J Don Dambuster Mad Dog Titan Morgan Buckskin Rogers Grand Kong Natsume Championship Wrestling Astroid Conan Viper Phantom Spike J.

Known games still requiring rosters... American Tag Team Wrestling for Amiga |
Rick Garrard | Posted on 01/26/08 at 03:11:15 You forgot the Bop'N'Wrestle later called Rock'N'Wrestle crew as well as the Epyx Championship Wrestling game characters. Good to see the Data East debacle called Tag Team Pro Wrestling made the list already. :) Bop'N'Wrestle/Rock'N'Wrestle/Rock'N'Lucha character names from the actual game box: http://www.mobygames.com/game/bopn-wrestle/cover-art/gameCoverId,46775/ May want to use this as a source for more wrestling games: http://www.mobygames.com/genre/sheet/wrestling/ |

Storylines, angles, characters... it's almost an endless supply of cliched characters, which are really good in a wrestling circuit. |
JeepGuy | Posted on 01/28/08 at 19:26:36 Well, I've started doing a new circuit in Alternative Wrestling Entertainment, which by my preliminary notes should be highly strange. Wrestling on the Oxygen channel should be strange enough but with the roster and a whole host of weird angles and political incorrectness, it should make for a good read (hopefully). |
Scott | Posted on 01/30/08 at 04:14:45 There was also a little known game called Takedown that came out around 1988 or 1989. There was also Sgt. Slaughter's Mat Wars. It came out not long before his 1991 WWF run. Also there was an early WWF game called Microleague WWF Wrestling. It was Text Driven with digitized video graphics (actually good graphics considering it was a Commodore 64 game) You just pick the move and the computer would decide if the move was successful or if it was blocked. The game only came with one match: Hulk Hogan vs. Randy Savage, and you had to buy seperate disks to get other matches. There were only expansion disks, and all in all it had five matches in total: Hogan vs. Savage, Jim Duggan vs. Harley Race, Jake Roberts vs. Rick Rude, Honky Ton Man vs. Randy Savage, and Hogan vs. DiBiase. It was basically a turn based game. But anyway: Takedown was a wrestling game available for various computers including the C64, and early Dos Based IBM and Compatibles. To get an idea of some of the characters in the game, here is some screenshots: http://s64.emuunlim.com/gameinfos/takedown/takedown.htm |
psz | Posted on 01/30/08 at 04:37:34 For the record, side 2 of MicroLeague Wrestling was Hogan vs Orndorff, IIRC (Yes, I had the game ;->) |

I had a Commodore 64 but passed on MicroLeague Wrestling. Now that I hear what it was like, I'm glad I did. |
psz | Posted on 01/31/08 at 02:31:28 It was actually not too bad... Think WLS "Very Lite" with scanned photo graphics (good for the time, as said) Both people would pick a move and, based on energy/heat/whatever that bar was, and the difficulty of the move (There were like 5 sets ranging from punches in the Easy section to Hogan's Leg Drop in the hardest one), it would decide who would succeed. Good idea, they just never went anywhere with it. |
