I'd do them. They are interesting before everyone rps. It may add some activity around here too.

My predictions:
The New Epoch vs. Ace/Raider/Elias - Won't predict my own match but looking forward to the RPs for this. I know Kyzer plans to go all out for The Kyzer Show Loaded in his hometown.
Phillip Schneider vs. Trace Demon - I'm going with Trace here. I've been on the fence with Schneider's recent stuff. Trace's promos on the last two shows were golden IMO and I'm really looking forward to where his character is headed.
Ripp Jackson and Thunder vs. Mak Cross and Cam Nitta - Ripp and Thunder might have some tricks up their sleeves but it will come down to whether or not Thunder makes the effort. Haven't seen it lately, so I am going with the new team of Nitta & Cross.
Alexis Chavente vs. Slanted - I'm really digging the Alexis character so far. Slanted's work is unique and quirky but I'm not fully on the bandwagon yet. Should be close, but I think Slanted might get his first victory here.
Daniel Sabat (c) vs. Dashing R - I think Sabat will retain his newly won title.
Samael Ahriman vs. Jasmine - Haven't seen Shawn's work as Samael and also haven't seen anything from Jasmine. The only thing that I think will hurt Samael is Shawn having to do double duty this show. Good luck to both.
Cameron Stone vs. Bill Kidwell - I think Stone will make up for his loss last show and pick up the victory here.
DeVante Parker vs. Stephen Fowler - Again, haven't seen anything from either so I am not going to make a prediction, I just hope they both show. Good luck.

Well anyone who wants to make predictions, make them. I'll tally up the results and we can start doing a little competition of sorts with them. Here are mine:
The New Epoch vs. Ace/Raider/Elias: I'm also with the group who won't predict their own matches, but on that note I am going to need THREE people who haven't done the voting committee who are not a part of this match to take a stab at voting committee once. Myself, Raider, Drakz, and Drake are all a part of this match and Hutton has asked not to take part this week, so we have two active members of the committee available to vote. PM me please.
Schneider vs. Trace: Looking through the comments of the current votes, Schneider is gonna see that there is some doubt in him in this match. Because of that, knowing the ego that Schneider has, I think he brings his A-game. I'm going with Schneider for that reason, because not many people here can take on Schneider in his A-game.
Jackson/Thunder vs. Cross/Nitta: I'm in the same boats in regards to Thunder. I feel bad for Shawn too, just because his stuff has been really great lately and I feel it will be solely because of Thunder's lack of effort that the two lose. Cross has been hot lately, and I'm on Team Nitta in regards to seeing potential there, because I've always saw myself in some of his work (not just because of the storyline).
Chavente vs. Slanted: I personally think that this has potential to steal the show in terms of closeness of the match, similar to Nitta/Sabat on the last show. I think Mike is an excellent writer, but on the same page, so is Meg from the little I've personally seen. I think Slanted has had probably the hardest two first matches I've ever seen a character given, and I think he picks up the W here.
Sabat vs. Dashing R: Glad to see two new guys show and gunning for a title. Hoping that Dashing R shows, because I haven't heard from him lately. I'm going to go with Sabat, his first RP impressed me.
Ahriman vs. Jasmine: Sorry to go against ya twice, Shawn, but I see Ahriman's RP being a bit lackluster, because he'll want to put more effort into Jackson. Jasmine's bio has me intrigued and I want to see the kind of stuff she pulls out there. I'll give Jasmine the nod in her debut.
Stone vs. Kidwell: I hope Kidwell shows to see what kind of stuff he has, but I personally don't see it being enough to beat Stone, who is my personal darkhorse for SOTF.
Parker/Fowler: I've seen one vote for Parker, so I'm going to go with Fowler just to be different. Hope to see both show and stick around because we've seen a couple of promising debuts fizzle out lately.

God, the entire company is against me yet again this week. The lack of faith in my ability is utterly depressing. Haha.

God, the entire company is against me yet again this week. The lack of faith in my ability is utterly depressing. Haha. All the more reason to prove everyone wrong. I like Ripp's character and I think you have been putting out some good stuff lately, but as I said before, it's going to be hard for you to win if Thunder doesn't contribute. And I know nothing about Samael, but you are going to have to find a positive balance between writing two different characters. Good luck man.

The New Epoch vs. Ace/Raider/Elias: This one could very easily steal the show because you've got six very good writers and a whole load of interesting angles for them to play off. However I find it hard to look past TNE. On any given show it's usually one of these three who put out my favorite of the week.
Schneider vs. Trace: I might have a massive ego, but I'm not gonna predict my own match.
Jackson/Thunder vs. Cross/Nitta: There was a time when I wouldn't have thought twice about giving Shawn and Thunder the win here, but with Shawn pulling double duty and Thunder's lack of effort I'm putting my money on Cross/ Nitta, two guys with a lot of potential. I really want to proven wrong in this one in terms of Thunder's effort because as most people know I've got a bit of history with him and know what he's capable of.
Chavente vs. Slanted: Another match with the potential to steal the show (if I say it too much it's going to lose any meaning). I've seen both of their work from their previous runs and they're both excellent writers but quite frankly Mike can out write the majority of people here if he sets his mind to it so I'm gonna put my backing with Slanted.
Sabat vs. Dashing R: It's about time we got some new guys who actually show up and put the effort in. Both of you have a lot of potential, and this could be your opportunity to make yourselves known as future headliners. Sabat's impressed me more however, so I'm giving him the nod.
Ahriman vs. Jasmine: I don't really know enough about Jasmine's writing style to really make an informed decision here. I know Shawn's pulling double duty this week and that could make it tougher, but I'm going to go out on a limb and give him the win.
Stone vs. Kidwell: Once again I don't know enough about Kidwell for an informed decision, but I do know Stone, and I can't look beyond him for this one.
Parker vs. Fowler: No idea about these two, so I'm just going with the guy with the more organised looking profile.

The New Epoch vs. Ace/Raider/Elias - New Epoch, that's somehow painful to say. Phillip Schneider vs. Trace Demon - Schneider. More pain.... Ripp Jackson and Thunder vs. Mak Cross and Cam Nitta - Shameless self-pick! Alexis Chavente vs. Slanted - Uhhh....Slanted. Daniel Sabat (c) vs. Dashing R - Sabat, you better not lose. Samael Ahriman vs. Jasmine - Cameron Stone vs. Bill Kidwell - Cam Stone, nuff said. DeVante Parker vs. Stephen Fowler - *flips coin* Fowler.

Since everyone else is, I should too:
I'm totally doing this with some kayfabe added to it.
New Epoch vs. Bennett/Raider/Drake -- I'm going to go for the upset and say the faces. Nothing against Epoch, but it'll be more interesting storyline wise if the top stable seemed to be on the verge of cracking before SOTF.
Schneider vs. Demon -- Schneider, and not because he'd be the better man. Why would Demon care enough to give the fans an entertaining match? Sure, he won't get the winner's purse, but he's getting paid either way.
Jackson/Thunder vs. Cross/Nitta -- If Thunder was on his A-Game, we'd be screwed, but considering now, sadly, our win is almost automatic.
Alexis vs. Slanted -- I think Slanted gets his first win, but it'll be close.
Sabat vs. Dashing -- Toss-up, I literally randomized their names and Sabat popped up, so there.
Ahriman vs. Jasmine -- Even more of a toss-up, again randomized, said Ahriman.
Stone vs. Kidwell -- Stone, since I know what he can do.
Parker vs. Fowler -- Fowler. Just 'cause.

The New Epoch vs. Ace/Raider/Elias - TNE. They are a team. Elias is not with Ace & Raider Phillip Schneider vs. Trace Demon - Schneider, never bet against the house mother ers, or you're gonna lose your shirt every time. Ripp Jackson and Thunder vs. Mak Cross and Cam Nitta - Mak and Cam are going to beat Ripp. You could substitute Thunder's name with any of the characters who have passed through here over the years that are now just memories, King Kraig, Justin Tyger, Immune.. Tha CBT (RIP). End result is the same, it's a 2 on 1 match Alexis Chavente vs. Slanted - Alexis. Slanted is cursed. Daniel Sabat (c) vs. Dashing R - Was Dashing R the one who talked about noodles? If he was, I'm going with him, because I expect this noodle storyline will be the captivation of the WFWF. Otherwise, Sabat. Samael Ahriman vs. Jasmine - Heads. No, tails! Cameron Stone vs. Bill Kidwell - Stone DeVante Parker vs. Stephen Fowler - Definitely tails.

I just now realized I never mentioned my opponent in my rp lol. Writing it, he never even entered my thoughts. I know nothing about him for one, and I was just trying to focus on a little character development. Sorry bout that folks.
If I can scrounge up enough material perhaps I shall post a second RP more focused on the match. It would be shorter but I may do it.

Sent from my GT-I5500M using ProBoards I haven't read your RP yet but I feel like in the least, you should always talk about your opponent as an RPer, even if it is just a one-liner mention. In this case though, you are going up against someone that hasn't even RP'd since they joined, so this go-round I think you'll be safe. Just keep it in mind for future reference. I'm looking forward to what everyone puts up for this show. I had the day off so I spent some time updating my story lines leading to the PPV and finally pulled the trigger on a decision that I was on the fence with for a while. SOTF is going to be nuts.

Still looking for a couple of people who are willing to judge the main event match. All I have right now judging the match is Shawn and Trace.

Thanks Mak, will the competitors in the main event be okay with 3 judges?

I personally don't care who judges it. It is going to be sick either way.
