I'll admit, i'm also anti-segregationist. Although, yes, Men are biologically superior at physical activity. Mother Nature designed us to be the hunter-gatherers, don't sue me. But, at the same time, she designed women to be the thinkers. Women have larger brains and quicker responses. I kinda liked the old days when the guys and gals would wrestle together. I mean, Trish Stratus and Lita proved that they are just as good, if not better than the guys.

But, getting back to the point, this is a sport where skill is just as much a priority as physical ability. That's why guys like Hideo Itame (Kenta Kobeyashi, who is a scrawny asian bloke with amazing skill) taking on someone like Big Cass (Who is 7 feet tall, and they can't teach that!) is interesting.

Being that, biologically, women can easily become more skilled than men, I think them wrestling together should be allowed.

I just have this image in my head of a typical WWF episode.

"You put me up against THIS GUY?!"

"YES AND YOU'RE GONNA FIGHT HIM IF YOU WANT TO OR NOT!"

"AHHH!!" -- It's like the ultimate soap opera for men, and I love it.

I think this pretty much proves that WWE is just Eastenders for Men

The Pro Wrestling RP

I think all Wrestlers should have these types of moves as standard:

Signature: (A theatrical move that people recognize you for. E.G. John Cena's 5-Knuckle Shuffle, The Rocks Float-Over DDT.)
Signature Submission: (Unlike the Sleeper Hold, this is a Submission move that people are actually likely to tap out to. E.G. Daniel Bryan's Yes Lock/Chris Benoit's Crippler Crossface (they are the same move) Bret Hart's Sharpshooter)
Theatrical Finisher: (A move people recognize as the end of most matches, The Rock's People's Elbow, Brock Lesnar's F5.)

But, optionally, can have some of these as well:

Instant Finisher: (A move that you can pull out to fuck over your opponent at any moment. Can be used to finish a match. E.G. Stone-Cold Stunner, RKO.)
Super Finisher: (Most matches end with your Theatrical Finisher, but then you have your Squash Matches and Titleship matches, where a regular Finisher just isn't going to get the job done. For that, you have your Super Finisher, the move that is pretty much guarenteed to end the match. This is the move that will only be kicked out of if it's the most important match of someones career. Big Show's Knock-Out Punch, Undertaker's Tombstone, Randy Orton's Punt.)
Top Rope Finisher: (This is essentially one step down from your Super Finisher. Recognized as more powerful than your regular finisher, but not as powerful as the Super Finisher. This is only very rarely brought out. John Cena's Leg Drop, Seth Rollins Phoenix Splash, Brock Lesnar's Shooting Star Press)

I'm down for this. Yes, Haitch's entrance was silly, and after DX came out, n.W.o.'s appearance was predictable, if odd (Considering that Sting spent most of his Vigilante time in WCW feuding with them.)

Kinda wish that New Day had won the Tag Team belt, because Mr "FAWT LAUTYDAUDY" and Mr "Lock-Up-Yo-Mid-Card" would be amazing if pushed right.

But, anyway, as a guy actually training to be a professional wrestler, a chance to hash out a gimmick online could be just what I need.

So... Is anyone going to post in the diner?

Young Avengers

My computers fan stopped working and has been in the shop. Then again, there's nothing for me to reply to...

Young Avengers

Matt I am pretty sure some people are in costume.

@Sep

... Why...? I thought the point was that nobody knew they were Heroes, so that the actual Avengers couldn't find/stop them.

Jerry breathed a heavy sigh of relief as they confirmed that she was right about them. "Oh thank god. I was worrying that the FBI were about to come booting down the door" she sighed, before sitting down at the table. She actually found Wiccan rather attractive... Then the word boyfriend came into the picture and suddenly, the feelings in the back of her skull, a feeling that most people called "Gaydar", all came into focus...

She looked around at the others. "So... We're here to pretend to be Superheroes?" she asked. "I've gotta be honest, I'm gonna remain skeptical about our ability to do this. I mean, Iron Man is the smartest guy on the planet, Captain America is the best guy ever and The Hulk is strong enough to wreck a city when he gets angry. We are going to be the Superhero equivalent of those guys that watch too much Wrestling and then try to recreate it using matress' in their back gardens, lovingly nicknamed Yard-Tards" she sighed. "Don't get me wrong, i'm all for doing this, but I need some inspiration." she said. "Can you promise me that we can actually make a difference, and aren't just going to all get killed?"

A loud snoring almost shook the house as the superpowered teenager slept at her desk. There was a bing as a message popped up on her computer, reminding her of the meeting. She slept through it, but soon, her phone began to buzz in her pocket. She roused and picked it out of her pocket, looking at it. Ballet lessons were starting soon... She didn't do ballet, she was about to go back to sleep when. She quickly glanced at her computer. Suddenly, her brain kicked into action and she remembered that Ballet was the code for the meet up. "CRAAAAAAAP!" She yelled. rolling off the chair and slumping on the floor, but quickly getting back to her feet and walking towards the door, A little too tired for her own good, as she grabbed the door handle, her arm took on the brass properties of it and she walked out into the hallway, before opening the door to the appartment blocks stairwell. She was half-way down the stairs when she remembered to lock the door. "Dammit..." she moaned, before running back up the stairs to lock it.

-------------------------------------------
20 minutes later
-------------------------------------------

There was a loud thud at the back of the shop as Jerry opened the door a little more forcefully than she should have. "Sorry..." she mouthed to everyone in the restaurant. She walked up to the counter and ordered a Korma. She then looked around, not entirely sure who was a member of the team. She saw the relatively large gathering of teenagers and slowly and... As inconspicuously as an overly muscular teenaged girl could before looking down. "So... Are you guys..." she wasn't entirely sure if she should go around asking about stuff like this. She placed her hand on the table and then raised it to reveal that the palm of her hand was now plastic, the same colour as the table. "It's a... Magic trick..." she said, pursing her lips as to express awkwardness as she had the sneaking suspicion that the door was going to be broken down and her dragged off by the FBI or maybe those S.H.I.E.L.D. guys that the internets tinfoil-hat-society constantly talked about.

Stonewall

Full name: Jermaine "Jerry" Sledge
Alias: Stonewall
Age: 16
Power:

Super Strength: Even in her human form, Stonewall possesses a large amount of strength, able to lift almost a ton over her head

Omni-morph Duplication: Stonewall possesses the ability to bodily duplicate, at will, the physical properties of anything she touches or that touches her. This power extends to both animate and inanimate objects and certain forms of energy. The matter of Stonewall's body magically materially and physiologically change so that her body actually becomes composed of the matter or energy with which she is making contact. While she is in this altered state, she still possesses her sentience despite the fact that her brain is now composed of the same material as the rest of her. She also takes on the properties of the substances that she absorbs. Absorbing electrical cables, for example, allows her to store a large electrical charge within herself.

Skills:

Skilled fighter (Having won several local "under 15's" Boxing tournaments, as well as a national Technical "Under 15's" Wrestling championship, she has proven to be a very skilled and capable hand-to-hand combatant.)

Appearance:



Costume:

Example of her costume, A simple black vest, jeans and boxing tape around her hand.

Brief Bio: Jerry was born to a single mother in the Bronx, never having known her father. All her mother would tell of him was was "He was some deadbeat convict that managed to get out of the clink for a night and seduced me in a bar." When she was young, she was constantly picked on by the other children, due to her large size. Her muscles were large, even for a child, and by the age of 5, was able to about as strong as the average adult man. When she was 7, she came home, crying, as the older boys had teased her and called her names. Her mother, in response, took her to a boxing club and got her lessons... By the age of 7 and 3 months, the boys had stopped teasing her.

As she grew, she quickly became a Hero worshiper. Her favourite being Iron Man. When she was 12, she actually got the chance to meet him, when she and her mother were on a bus that accidentally drove into a fight between Iron Man and The Absorbing Man. Absorbing Man threw their bus at Iron Man, but he caught it and made sure the civilians were safe. After his victory, he returned to make sure they were alright, and she hugged him hard enough to leave a dent in his armours leg.

Over the next several years, she would take her boxing very seriously, going on to win several local championships, during this time, she got into Technical Wrestling and managed to make it to a National "Under 15's" Championship, which she won.

When she was 15, her Absorption powers began to make themselves known, when she went on her first date with a boy, she accidentally gave his lips splinters, when she began to uncontrolably absorb the bench that they were sat on. She went into seclussion as she tried to learn how to control her powers, accidentally absorbing everything that she touched. Her clothes, her shoes, the food that she attempted to eat... When she found out about the Young Avengers, she joined on the spot, hoping to become like Iron Man. Since joining, she actually has developed a crush on Spider-Man.

Additional info: Although not very femanine in appearance and commonly referred to as a "Dyke" she does enjoy femanine things, such as shopping and hair-dressing, and hopes to one day become a mother (Although, her dream of becoming the mother to Iron Mans "Iron Babies" is a dream, that, she admits, to being a little too unrealistic)

Matt we ask that if you play as a oc you have a canon character first. So... You know...

@DrewVonAwesome

She is a reimagining.
