FIGHTING SPIRIT PRO-WRESTLING

@Eviledd1984 No worries man, thanks for the heads up. Whenever you get a chance though could you just delete/erase your posts form the Char tab? In the future another character might be created based on Great Muta.

And to that end, we are definitely going to want one or two more handlers to join the RP now to add some new characters. So if anyone is interested, this is a great chance to hop on board.

English Broadcast Team

Buck Johansson

Name: Buck Johansson

Role: Play-by-Play

Age: 40

Appearance/Pic Base: Ian Riccaboni

Personality/Background: The (English) voice of Fighting Spirit. Worked as an announcer in minor league baseball before getting an opportunity in the wrestling business, of which he's been a lifelong fan. Calls the action fairly and lends credibility to every broadcast. A knowledgeable wrestling historian with a deep respect for the competitors in the ring. He's not the star of the show, they are.

"Showtime" Ricky Sato

Name: "Showtime" Ricky Sato

Role: Colour Commentary, Backstage Interviews

Age: 48

Appearance/Pic Base: Old Man Hiroshi Tanahashi

Personality/Background: Retired pro wrestler turned colour commentator. Moved to California as a teenager, where he first broke into the wrestling business. Competed all over North America before eventually returning to his homeland of Japan, becoming an instant star thanks to his flashier style and flamboyant personality. He's had countless matches with Super Matsuda over the years, and they have developed a mutual respect despite their differences in approach. As a wrestler, he represented a bridge between the Japanese style and the American style, and he serves the same role as a commentator. A fluent bilingual speaker, he is also an invaluable backstage interviewer. Commonly referred to as "Showtime" by wrestlers and fans alike, as if it were his first name.

There you have it folks, our very first event has been made official. Every wrestler will be included in the Rumble Match, so it's a great chance for you all to introduce your characters and set up potential rivalries for down the line. The structure of the Rumble also allows us to easily incorporate new players. Applications will remain open, and as long as the character sheet is approved and the promo is posted before the deadline, the wrestler WILL appear in the Rumble. So new players are definitely still welcome to join, and existing players may also create additional wrestlers if they wish.

@Taka Both look fantastic! Two great additions to the roster. Only note for Justin Young would be that his Death From above headscissors move definitely feels more like a signature spot or a set-up move rather than a finish. And for Himiko you might want to use a lighter font color just to make promos easier to read. Not sure how it will look at a longer block of text?

Welcome aboard, very happy to have you! I'm still weighing the pros/cons of having one division vs separate men's and women's divisions, but either way I see both of these characters being major players.

@Eviledd1984 Looks greats! Go ahead and add him to the Char section and I'll update the roster.
