--EDIT-- OK, now my PC starts to fuck up.

I'll try and go on as best I can, gonna have to make a VHS back up of the PPV now in case my PC restarts though.

I finally finished a ton of CAWs to update my SVR06 roster, and am probably going to start my annual self-booked "season" this week. I was thinking of posting results here and possibly uploading the PPV matches.

Thoughts?

Bueller?

Screw it, I'll do it anyway. Already have the NYR card planned out. Does anyone have a preference for format/site? Like, I know some people had trouble with RapidShare and the .rm last time. Would you rather see .wmvs from YouSendIt? MPEGs?

Haha, this thread brings be back.

Did you ever end up doing this for your own enjoyment, loopy?

Anyways...I never got around to making many CAWs in SVR06. All I made was Kennedy, Hardy, and the Spirit Squad.

I was considering doing a tourney later on in the year to ring in the arrival of SVR07, but odds are my PS2 and games will be going bye-bye sooner rather than later as I prepare to get a 360.

I was bored so I did a WWE vs. WCW PPV in SVR06, the best that I can do with the roster available. 8 matches in all. Basically, anybody who ever competed for WCW was eligible to be on the WCW side of things. I tried to just amuse myself, basically. This card would suck if ever actually done.

It was held in the GAB arena (as it was a PPV for both companies) with JR and King commentating (since JR used to call WCW). The first 7 matches will be part of the competition, the final match has no sides to it.

Match 1: In a battle of the managers, we saw WWE’s Khosrow Daivairi take on WCW’s “Mouth of the South” Jimmy Hart. As the match went on, Muhammad Hassan ran in to back his manager. Hart countered that in a big way, however, as his largest client, The Giant, ran in to help out. Hart got in a lot of early offense, but in the end Daivairi’s in-ring experience prevailed, as he caused Hart to pass out in a sleeper hold.
WWE – 1, WCW – 0

Match 2: Cruiserweight Time! This match was fought under captain tornado tag elimination rules. Team WWE was captained by Tajiri, and he had Paul London and Scotty Too Hotty as his teammates. Team WCW was captained by Rey Mysterio Jr., and he brought along Chavo Guerrero Jr. and “Sugar” Shane Helms. Bodies were flying everywhere. Rey recorded the first elimination, pinning Scotty Too Hotty, putting WWE in a 3-2 hole. London was the next man to go, getting pinned by Rey after a top-rope huricanrana (funnily, the ref was down and London was pinned for a good 30 seconds). Left without a team, Tajiri was at the mercy of Team WCW, getting pinned by, you guessed it, Rey.
WWE – 1, WCW – 1

Match 3: In a most interesting match, we saw the “Battle of People with Huge Potential Who Never Got More Than a Tag Title Run” between WWE’s Rob Conway and WCW’s Mark Jindrak. It was a back-and-forth encounter, loaded with reversals. Both men hit their finishers, but ultimately it was Conway and his swinging neckbreaker that got the nod.
WWE – 2, WCW – 1

Match 4: One would think that Batista, Randy Orton, and John Cena would be an unstoppable trio. However, the three men who propelled themselves to the top of WWE in a very quick manner were set to face their biggest challenge yet: not getting held down. Thanks to the miracle of time machine, a trio of THREE Hulk Hogans emerged to take on the WWE All-Star Team. To add to it, it was an elimination tornado tag tables match. “The Animal” Batista got off to a great start, eliminating the current Hogan quickly. Minutes later, John Cena sent Hollywood Hogan through a table to elimination. 80’s Hogan tried his best, but in the end he too was sent through a table by Cena. WWE is now 1 more win away from clinching the contest.
WWE – 3, WCW – 1 (holy fuck, I can’t believe Hogan jobbed THREE consecutive times)

Match 5: This contest saw two cocky wrestlers square off under First Blood stipulations. WWE’s Carlito took on WCW’s Chris Jericho. Both guys went at it hard, brawling both inside the ring and outside. Biggest “OH MY GOD!” spot comes when Jericho hits a flying elbow drop from the top turnbuckle to the outside of the ring (where Carlito was sprawled). Jericho eventually wins, hitting Carlito with a dropkick to the head, causing him to bleed. What was most disturbing was that the two men forced the blood without any weapon aid.
WWE – 3, WCW – 2

Match 6: In a match every smark would love, WWE’s Kurt Angle (no, his brief Alliance stint doesn’t mean he was a WCW’er) took on WCW’s Chris Benoit in a 20-Minute Ultimate Submission Match. Angle Locks, Crossfaces, and many other holds aplenty in this classic. However, the ending disappointed. The match ended in a draw. Word has it that, pending the outcome of the next match, a bonus match will be added to the end of the card.

Match 7: What was SUPPOSED to be the final match of the contest (and could very well be in the end), saw WWE’s JBL go head to head with WCW’s “Stunning” Steve Austin. The match took place in a place where both men are familiar: a bar. Gotta admit, this match was disappointing. All of 1 weapon was used the entire match. In the end, JBL hit his powerbomb and won the match in what has to be considered an upset. WWE wins the contest.
WWE – 4, WCW – 2

MAIN EVENT: Our main event of the evening took place in Hell in a Cell, a match mainly a WWE specialty, but it’s been attempted in WCW. Several participants in this match saw more success in WWE, but all have competed in WCW.

The participants: 5-time WCW Champion Booker T, 16-time champion “Nature Boy” Ric Flair, “The Hardcore Legend” Mankind (Cactus Jack in WCW), The Undertaker (Mean Mark Callous in WCW), “The Game” Triple H (Jean-Paul Levesque in WCW), and Bret “The Hitman” Hart.

…and the match disappointed. Clusterfuck from the get-go, they never even left the ring. The vast amount of finishers made it exciting, but in the end Mankind won thanks to Bret tapping out to an incredibly weak knee to the back.

…I hate the AI in this game sometimes. Oh well.

Giving this topic a super bump, because I got bored and decided to do this with SVR07.

I'm doing a tri-branded "season". I only used the 51 playable superstars at the start (17 per show), and the rosters were determined completely by random drawing from a hat.

Each show would have 4 titles: the main title, the secondary title, a set of tag titles, and a specialty title (Women's, Cruiserweight, Hard Bastard (Hardcore Matches only)). The specialty titles would go to the show that best suited them (ie if all the women were drafted to ECW, the Women's title would go there).

Here were the rosters, in the order pulled from the hat:


RAW
1. Psicosis
2. Batista
3. Torrie Wilson
4. Snitsky
5. Hardcore Holly
6. Lita
7. Ken Kennedy
8. Lance Cade
9. Jillian Hall
10. Triple H
11. Shelton Benjamin
12. Kane
13. The Great Khali
14. Candice Michelle
15. Chris Benoit
16. Trevor Murdoch
17. Trish Stratus

SMACKDOWN
1. Joey Mercury
2. Edge
3. Mickie James
4. Gregory Helms
5. Paul Burchill
6. Kurt Angle
7. Matt Hardy
8. Chavo Guerrero
9. Johnny Nitro
10. Big Show
11. Finlay
12. Daivari
13. Mick Foley
14. JBL
15. William Regal
16. Vito
17. Carlito


ECW
1. Rob Van Dam
2. Booker T
3. Super Crazy
4. Bobby Lashley
5. Randy Orton
6. John Cena
7. Rey Mysterio
8. Umaga
9. Melina
10. Mark Henry
11. Viscera
12. Chris Masters
13. Shawn Michaels
14. Kid Kash
15. Ric Flair
16. The Undertaker
17. The Boogeyman


-------

I shit you not, that was random drawing. ECW is loaded as fuck, I couldn't believe it.

Anyway, after I did the draft, I simmed some matches to determine starting champs, and this is how it turned out:

WWE Champion: Kane
Intercontinental Champion: Ken Kennedy
World Tag Team Champions: Lance Cade & Trevor Murdoch
Women's Champion: Trish Stratus

World Heavyweight Champion: JBL
United States Champion: Finlay
WWE Tag Team Champions: MNM
Cruiserweight Champion: Gregory Helms

ECW Champion: Vacant
Television Champion: Rob Van Dam (made him heel)
ECW Tag Team Champions: Sexual Chocolate (Viscera and Mark Henry)
Hard Bastard Champion: Umaga

The first show I post here will be the Royal Rumble, which, as a special, will feature all 51 superstars in some capacity.


THE CARD
-------

WWE Championship: Kane vs. Chris Benoit
These two men were the finalists in the battle royal held to decide the new WWE Champion, and they have been feuding since then.

Women's Championship: Trish Stratus vs. Lita vs. Candice Michelle vs. Jillian Hall vs. Torrie Wilson
This one is self explanatory, Trish won the Women's Title and has had her issues with everyone else in the division. She has to defend it in an elimination match now.


World Heavyweight Championship: JBL vs. Kurt Angle
It's been a good-old fashioned struggle from the get-go between these two. JBL cheated his way to the Championship, and Angle had a big problem with it. Angle knows he could outwrestle the champ any day of the week, and now is his time to prove it.

WWE Tag Team Championships: MNM vs. Mick Foley and Matt Hardy w/ Mickie James
With Melina getting drafted to ECW, MNM tried to recruit Mickie James to be the new "M" in their team. Not only did she turn them down, she sided with Mick Foley, who has had problems with MNM in the past. Foley needed a partner in order to go for the gold, and he found himself a good one in tag-team specialist Matt Hardy.


ECW Championship: The Undertaker vs. Randy Orton
These two are the finalists in a tournament to crown the ECW Champion. Pretty self explanatory.

Television Championship: Rob Van Dam vs. Shawn Michaels
RVD has gotten something of an ego since winning the title, resembling his old form in ECW. RVD has boasted that he can top his 23-month reign with the belt, but HBK has vowed to stop it. It's the Whole Fucking Show vs. The Showstopper.

Grudge Match: Ric Flair vs. Kid Kash w/ Melina
Without her previous clients, Melina needed someone else. She found a man that she feels can generate titles in the future (and "kash"). Their first target being Ric Flair. The boastful Kash can certainly make a name for himself with a victory over the 16-time World Heavyweight Champion.


30-Man Royal Rumble Match
Self-explanatory. Winner gets a title shot at WrestleMania. Basically, take the list of the 51 superstars, subtract the 21 listed above, and there's your 30. Interestingly enough, it also works out to 10 per brand.

1. Ric Flair vs. Kid Kash w/ Melina: Kash started the bout off on the offensive, before Flair bounced back with some of his own crafty moves. It went back and forth for awhile, before Flair’s size advantage took over, Kash couldn’t even lift him (cause you know, Flair is a massive heavyweight). Kash escaped the Figure Four at one point but then later on he fell to a knee breaker and a pinfall. Flair proved he was still a force to be reckoned with.

2. Women’s Championship Battle Royal: Trish Stratus certainly had her work cut out for her as she needed to defend her championship against 4 other women in one match. All the ladies went at it hard (not in that way, you sick freaks) for several minutes. The first elimination was a bit of a surprise, with Candice Michelle eliminating the much more ring-savvy Jillian Hall after a big splash. Seconds later, Stratus eliminated arguably her biggest competition, pinning Lita after the Chick Kick. Candice was the next to go as Torrie eliminated her with a facebuster. Trish finally eliminated Torrie by making her submit to a leg lock. Credit must be given to Torrie, she put up a good fight. A Trish/Torrie match is likely for the future.

3. Television Championship Match: ECW presented the match that was widely predicted to be the match of the night, with “Whole Fucking Show” Rob Van Dam defending his title against “The Showstopper” Shawn Michaels. The match started off slower than anticipated, with both men seemingly reluctant to get it started. It didn’t take long though for both guys to start pulling out all the stops. Drama ensued, RVD ascended the top to go for a 5 Star Frog Splash, but HBK put his knees up at the last possible second, foiling the move. RVD managed to bounce back and successfully hit a 5 Star, but HBK kicked out at 2 and a half, leaving RVD visibly frustrated. HBK knocked down RVD, tuned up the band, BAM! Sweet Chin Music. But HBK was stamina-depleted and he couldn’t make the pin. RVD mustered several more near-falls, but just couldn’t put Michaels away. Another Sweet Chin Music, and 3 seconds later Shawn Michaels was declared the victor. Shawn can now add “Television Champion” to the list of accomplishments in his illustrious career.

4. WWE Tag Team Championship Match: Mick Foley and Matt Hardy came accompanied by Mickie James. MNM, however, pulled a surprise. They countered Mickie by bringing out Melina, taking advantage of the fact that all superstars were present at the show. MNM utilized quick tags in and out to try and isolate Foley. Foley eventually got the hot tag into Matt Hardy and the score was evened out. Fights spilled on the outside and in the ring. Eventually, Matt planted Mercury with a Twist of Fate while Foley held Nitro at bay. Matt Hardy and Mick Foley were Smackdown’s new tag team champions.

5. WWE Championship Match: Two fan favorites collided in this one as Chris Benoit looked to unseat Kane as Raw’s champion. It was something of a styles clash right from the get-go. Kane tried to utilize his power, while Benoit remained focused on grounding the big man and locking him in to countless submission holds. Benoit tried his hardest to make Kane submit to the Crippler Crossface on several occasions, but it was not to be. Kane managed to bust Benoit’s forehead open with a big DDT and then he delivered a massive chokeslam to seal the deal. Kane retains his title.

6. ECW Championship Match: The ECW Title tournament final saw two men face off who were very familiar to one another: Randy Orton and The Undertaker. Orton opted to take the cowardly route: low blows, eye pokes, and throwing Taker to the outside to beat him down. Taker would have none of it, planting Orton with multiple Tombstones and a hellacious Big Boot that busted Orton wide open. Taker won the tournament and the ECW Title. The question now is: who will be able to take that belt away from the Deadman?

7. World Heavyweight Championship Match: As JBL strode to the ring in his limo, he looked cocky and sure as ever that he would retain his title, even against a wrestler the caliber of Kurt Angle. There was a lot of drama in this match, especially when it came to reversing and trading finishers back and forth. Sadly, the ending disappointed. Big boot to the face of Angle, busting him open, pinfall victory and successful title defense for JBL. The EXACT same ending as the previous match. Lame.

Here’s where I’ll pick the commentary up. When Triple H entered at #30, we were left with one representative from each show. Triple H from Raw, Edge from Smackdown, and Rey Mysterio from ECW. Surprisingly, Rey got the early advantage, nailing both men with hurricanranas and planchas. Edge soon took over, and eliminated the 2006 Royal Rumble winner. It was down to Edge and Triple H. Both men nearly got eliminated, but in the end it was Triple H who prevailed and will go on to WrestleMania. One has to wonder, with back to back wins from the #30 slot, maybe that number is finally living up to the hype.

----------

A decent show. HBK/RVD was easily the highlight. The endings to the final two matches pissed me off though. I was kinda hoping that an unexpected person would win the Rumble, I forgot that its rigged so that main eventers enter in the last 3 spots almost as insurance to make sure unknowns don't win. Thank God Khali didn't win it though, otherwise he'd be a lock to win the title and hold it forever.

Khali probably had the highlight of the Rumble Match, though. He came in and started eliminating people quickly like in real life. He also worked with Daivari to eliminate Viscera, leaving them the only two men in the ring. Just when it looked like they had briefly rekindled their former alliance, Khali chucks Daivari out with ease.
