DAMNIT! DAMNIT DAMNIT DAMNIT! lol Congrats, Travis.
I held my breathe the entire time I was reading the results. The Ladder Match was awesome, the Nat Title match was spectacular.
Alright, I gotta say- We are holding a funeral for Fuego and HJ on the next SD. Mick Foley fell 15 feet and had a laundry list of injuries. Those guys fell 30 feet- they are D-E-A-D.
By far the best show we had so far. The wait for the results are WELL worth it. The anticipation probably made it better.
The PDJ Circle of Legends was done REALLY well.
On a side note- I'm kinda glad I didn't win, cause my finish had Gavelon taking another crotch shot lol. I didn't realize until I was finished Gavelon had a Low BlowPalooza in the cage. Sorry.
I can't believe Crowe didn't win the Natural title.
I think that's it.
How wants to see a Gavelon/Phil/Ase rematch?!!
...
ME! lol

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Incredible show, everybody! I absolutely loved this show from top to bottom! For me, every match was a surprise. Rps were top notch for this show. I didn't have the quantity that I wanted but everyone had quality stuff. Taking away the fact that my guy won, the Steel Cage Match is still one of the greatest matches I've ever had the privilege of reading. Awesome job, Tym! Doug's b*lls will thank you in due time. lol I'm as shocked as anyone that Crowe didn't walk out the Natural Champ. Adam, you were amazing rping for this show and I am d*mn lucky that Nate won. While I think the School House Rock was an interesting idea, I don't think it should be an annual occurance. It seems a bit "cartoony" (or at least the way I wrote it) and just really wouldn't work if constantly done. Reading it back, I'm still happy with how the ladder match turned out. I hope Tym's not the only one who shares my opinion. lol Firebomb-Adam Davids was a nice, little match and may get overlooked in the end by the rest of the show but was very enjoyable for me. So, since PDJ showed up in RCW and cut an awesome promo, does that mean Nick's back or at least on his way back? If not, it was still a great tribute to his top character. Like I said, great show and here's to School of Hard Knocks III!!!!

I'll have to agree the Circle of Legends was done very well.
I liked all the matches, but I'd say the Main Event stood out the most...next to that would have had to been the Fuego/Hardcore Jeez match.
For the future, I think the fed has completely outgrown the territory. If the shows actually turned out this well, I think a network would have picked them up already. I know moving forward and making it a "world" or "american" federation would change alot of the feel of this place, but I honestly believe the time is now to start the growing process. Maybe an RCW tour to kick things off. Also, on Travis's comments about the whole idea of "School of Hard Knox", I'd say a change could be easily fixed if the fed were to move forward. The main PPV could simply lose the name "School of" and be called "Hard Knox".
Now, I proud of Travis for all of his wins. But I think it's time to start weeding out some of the characters....this coming from a guy who actually had 9 at one time and 4 that held championships at the time. Lol. But it seems like for the most part you can handle them.
All in all, I think the show went over really well and regardless of where it was or what the deal with it was, it still had a great overall PPV feel to it.

Just a few quick things...
The School House Rock match was a one time thing, so as far as I know... there are no plans to continue it's idea.
As far as RPs went for this show, yes I wish there could have been more... but for those that did happen, the outcomes really came down to the Early RP bonuses... this show I believe more than any other really proved how important those early bonuses are.
Still would like to hear from more of you about how you felt about this show, so keep the comments and discussion going.

*blinks dazedly*
can't respond......something in my mind broke after reading the Fuego/HJ and Gavelon/Ase/Phil....barely capable of coherent thought at the moment........
p.s.........he's not the only one that would want to see the Gav/Ase/Philly rematch *lol*
