JWA - New Fed on the Horizon

VertigoPosted on 02/02/06 at 22:33:17

I've not been able to run a successful TNM circuit for quite a few months now... not since my Cincinnati Pro circuit. I've tossed a bunch of ideas around, but I've stumbled upon one that I'm really enjoying.

The basis of my new federation springs from my love of wrestling action figures. I'm a collector and a big fan of the recent JAKKS figures. Since I'm far too old to actually sit and play with them anymore, I thought I'd put them to good use by making them my roster for a new TNM circuit... the JAKKS Wrestling Association.

The only wrestlers I can hire are actual figures that I own. After formatting my first 20 picks while still making it somewhat random, I will hire guys by a blind drawing at different times throughout the circuits life. If they accept to work for JWA, I then roll a 12 sided dice to determine how many months in a year they will get a contract for. Ha! Genius, right?

This is mainly booked as it will be primarily storyline driven. No rulesheet. I hope to peek interests with my (hopeful) continuity of storylines and wrestler management. Check below for complete starting roster and announced show dates.

The JWA will be headed by none other than "Classie" Freddie Blassie. Every Wednesday will be the weekly 'Aggression' event and the last Saturday of every month will host JWA's monthly big event. The first 'Aggression' is scheduled for January 4, 2006.

JAKKS Wrestling Association Complete Starting Roster:
Akio
Andre The Giant
Batista
Brutus Beefcake
Carlito Caribbean Cool
Chris Masters
Christian
Doink The Clown
Eddie Guerrero
Funaki
Harley Race
Hulk Hogan
Jerry Lawler
King Kong Bundy
Rey Mysterio Jr.
Rhyno
Sakoda
Shark Boy
Terry Funk
Triple H
Wild Samoan Afa (w/Jimmy Hart)
Wild Samoan Sika (w/Jimmy Hart)

It's primarily current WWE talent with wrestlers from the JAKKS "Classic Superstars" line. And yes, I know, Shark Boy was never in WWE. He is the only non JAKKS figure involved in this project.

This looks AWESOME! You have a great roster and I am really looking forward to what you can do with it, as Cincinatti Pro was excellent stuff. Alright, you didn't ask for them, but here they come, MY PREDICTIONS (obviously, winners in bold):

January 4, 2006 - JWA presents Aggression
- Akio & Sakoda vs. Hulk Hogan & Andre The Giant
- Chris Masters vs. Eddie Guerrero
- Christian vs. Funaki
- Triple H, Harley Race, & Carlito Caribbean Cool vs. Shark Boy, Brutus Beefcake, & Doink The Clown

Again, I cannot wait to see this fed get started. Good luck on the circuit.

A fun idea that you seem to enjoy.  The only thing I suggest is not to always limit yourself ONLY to figures that you own.  Unless you own an exorbitant upon of figures, it limits your options.
