RCW Episode 2 (10.10.11)

Great show! Jericho vs. Delaney was a good part before the actual match. The storyline you have between these two is looking good. Batista as the special opponent?! The Walls of Jericho pose was very innovative. I was happy when Jericho won the match. Thanks for promoting my show in your advertisements.

The backstage promo was very good. I like the Legacy vs. CM Punk feud. I like the style you have with RCW. Everything you have going in terms of storylines are great. Thanks for promoting my projects in your advertisements Regan. Keep doing what you do! My only advice would be to work on the lighting side of things and edit string, and possibly move the joints a bit more in the poses.

Thanks for the comments


@ WCM's Izzy, Nice to know you are enjoyed the show! I didn't know if people would like the backstage segment or not... but I'm glad you liked it. I am looking into getting a ref too.

@benpayton97, Good you enjoyed it! I will work on poses and edit the string next time thanks for the comment!

@bigeviljohn, Was there anything you enjoyed? Thanks for the advice. I might buy a set of ring steps of ebay. I will attempt to edit string next time aswell!

Ok. My first time checking out RCW. First off, I like that I know what to expect from the roster. It's basically a WWE style fed with guys from the mid to late 2000's, so I already know what I'm in for. Nice to see Jericho picking up the win against Batista. I also like how much enthusiasm you are putting into it, and that you seem to really want to do a pic fed. With that said, the poses were pretty stiff, and you really need to edit out the string. The angles you chose with string unedited just looked very unpolished. The Legacy / Punk match that was more like a segment was nice, and I liked how you established Legacy as the heels, and they looked dominant. Maybe a little out of character for Legacy to use barbwire but this is your fed, and maybe that's what they do in your fed. Miz vs. Mysterio if a fresh feud and one I can get behind. Ok, Shelton vs. Rhodes. I love seeing Shelton featured as a legitimate player in your fed, so I hope he pics of the win. The moonsault pose by Shelton was actually very good. Ok, Angle in RCW is awesome. Can't wait to see that. Main event with Taker, Cena, HHH, and Edge. Definitely establishes what kind of main event scene you have in this fed. Not a bad show, but definitely not one that doesn't need improvement. I felt it was WAY too busy with tons of videos every 30 seconds. The pics were blurry, but it didn't really bother me. What bothered me more was the super bright lighting. It just gave it a cheap feel. The poses could use some work too, but I like the effort you're putting into it all. I can tell you are passionate and that's the first thing you need. Keep it going.

Cool, I got to check out Episode 2 and I feel it's a big improvement from the last episode, in terms of pic quality and action! The ratio of blurry pics was much lower. A few snuck in there from time to time but it didn't detract from the show as badly as last time. Your arena is looking nice and clean. I don't mind the wooden steps, really...I'd rather suggest covering up the VHS tapes on the entryway. Oh wait, you did towards the end, nevermind. Otherwise, everything works nicely! I really liked the use of dynamic camera anges during the show, there were a lot of neat shots. I remember you saying that your new ref was a bit on the rough side but it's a lot better that he's recognizable as your ref now. I'm liking your commentating team of Joey Styles and Stone Cold, they're doing a good job. I loved the random stuff they came up with like:

"Are you jealous of Edge and Triple H? Both men have hair and got signed to wrestle not commentate."
"Will you shut up? I like having no hair. I feel sorry for you people who have hair like yours!"

I got a nice laugh out of that one! Ok, let's look at the rest of the show now...

Your Colin Delaney figure is cool because he looks like such a scrawny underdog. The poor kid got beat down by that cocky Jericho. But wait, it's Teddy Long, holla! Substituting Batista into the match is a good payback. And it turned into a good opening match, too! I also liked that sick Walls of Jericho off the ropes, it looked cool. Jericho as IC champ sounds fun, I like how his opinion of the belt changed once he got it, too...What an egomaniac!

Fun commercial breaks!

Nice to see Teddy Long taking care of business, cool mini-posters in his office! Robbie McAllister is funny. That was a nice backstage segment and match setup!

Uh-oh, it's Legacy! I like how the Punk/Austin rivalry lives on. Poor CM Punk, he fought well but once the ref got taken out, it was over for him. Geez, busted open and RKO'd!

Nice, a Halloween Havoc promo and...WWE Alt?! Thanks for the endorsement, Steph should be mailing you a check, heheh!

It's good to see RCW's first PPV already getting mentioned, can't wait to see how Rise to Glory shapes up!

A Rey/Miz feud is promising, c'mon Teddy, let it happen! I thought it was funny seeing Miz relaxing at the top of the entryway and making fun of Rey. Hmm, what does Teddy Long have planned now?

Hey, it's Kurt Angle! I really liked the spotlight on him while he delivered his promo, it really made him stand out.

RCW: Don't Try This. LOL!

The commercial breaks are cool but you should probably limit them to only one video and one promo poster at a time. Otherwise, it's gonna start feeling like watching through a real commercial break and make us want to skip them instead, heheh!

Shelton Benjamin vs. Cody Rhodes turned out to be a good match, I was afraid Legacy would take him out early on. Very nice how you handled an injured Benjamin but he still fought on, he's tough and it makes him look like a credible contender! Geez, Orton didn't even give Jericho any time to run his mouth! Just when it looks like the madness is over, Punk returns to announce his match with Randy Orton at Rise to Glory, a good setup! You made Legacy look strong by giving them each something in this episode and yet, they always managed to act as a team in the end!

Poor Robbie...Rory will never get signed at this rate! At least he got a match at halloween havoc, though. Good way to promote the event early on!

Time for the main event and it's a good one too. Lots of good moments and fun commentary, you worked in a great pace. Wait, Undertaker trips on the loose elbow pad?! LOL, that was hilarious, call Botchamania! Thanks for bringing back the FU. Screw the PG rating, Austin! Edge is a jerk, first he shoves the ref into the opponent and then he spears his own partner? Lots of tension in the end to close off the show, very nice!

Looking back, that's a lot of action going on in one episode! It flowed at a great pace, though, and your show is looking better. Just keep working on those poses and eliminating any blurry pics and you'll be fine. RCW is an entertaining show, thanks for posting it and keep it up!

i told ya id get to this, lol.

First off, your arena needs work, (we've talked about that). You must have a window open somewhere cause theres a huge light i noticed, makes shadows and such, and doesnt do any good for your show. Some fairly stiff poses in there. Blurry pics, sometimes i cant even help that though, they look clear on the camera then when u upload, there not, lol.

Im a picky person about some things, lol, mostly little stuff, like your ref, u need a new one, steps need painted, the wood floors looks like something off a bowling toy or something.

At one point Cena had taker donw for a submission, and i had no idea wat he was doing, it looked almost like you layed a figure on top of another one.

Maybe printout some crowds, or make a guard rail and throw some figures behind there, RCW got to have a crowd right .

Ill be watching your stuff more man the more it comes out, stay with it

Much better than your first show. Pics are clearer (although still a fair amount of blurry ones) and I like the arena much better. I'm gonna have to disagree with the others, I loved your steel steps. They're wooden, that's awesome. Goes with the rest of the wood floor of your arena too. Don't lose those!

Remember fedding is about you having fun, not impressing everyone else. At least that's what I'm trying to do with my fed. Fix the main errors, but keep the things that make your fed your own.

I really liked Batista/Jericho, especially the shoulder into the steel spot.

Rhodes/Benjamin was probably match of the night, though.

Keep up the work man, I suspect your shows will only get better.

I once made myself a black step set with cardboard, for my RAW RSR. Then I bought an extra set of blue steps and spray painted them black. Much better, lol, but one works with what one has.

Yeah, I mean, in my case I preferred having the blue steps painted black than the ugly steps I had made, but one works with what one has. If steps are not available at the time, you have to get creative. I always respect somebody that can go ahead and make their own stuff rather than just having all the props available to them. Don't think I was saying that your steps are ugly, man!
