So after talking it over with Trace, we have decided to give into peer pressure and are going to rename the main Revolution show. That is where you come in.
We want YOU to PM BOTH ME AND TRACE with your show name idea. Me and Trace will look them over, pick the best ones out and put them up in a poll for a vote. The one with the most votes by the time Trace posts the next card wins.
Be creative, have fun. If you want to be especially cheeky, you can make a poster for the show too and it can be shown off during voting if yours makes it. Otherwise, maybe Prog or Drakz or Rev or something will volunteer a couple of minutes of their time to make a poster.
So yeah. PM me AND Trace your show name ideas. One idea per person.
Ready?
Set?
Do it.

Look...okay, 'Revolution' isn't exactly ground breaking, but if the alternative is winding up with 'WFWF presents the Hollywood Honor Hoedown Hoopdy Doo Revue'...well...could we just stick with Revolution?

Aww, but WFWF HHHHDR is so catchy though. I'm kind of partial to Revolution, just because I thought of it.... Though with the growing number of up and comers that could rise quickly a la Prog that we've got around, I do think something like "Outbreak" would be cool if you guys are set on changing it.

If we're really going forward with a new name, can we get another "owner fires the entire on air staff" segment so we can at least get some commentators with a normal arrangement of vowels in their names and/or names that don't look like they're supposed to rhyme but don't and haha now you have to find and replace every instance of where you typed "Christina Adina"?

More than even me. Nah because I would have just called it "Getting Down on Friday" and would have made sure the card and then the results were specifically posted on Fridays. If that would have meant receiving all the matches by Sunday and waiting five days to post it then so be it. I recommend "On The Spot Dicespin" and I hope you pick it just to troll SYE.

My Idea is Mayhem. If I may suggest another, I'd pick Anarchy. Cool that we get a new show name after Superbrawl thats cool!
I nominate this for a theme song....

The "regular" show here has had a billion names - it usually goes hand in hand with the owners at the time putting their "stamp" on things. Without going back through the boards, I can remember, over the course of me being here: Code Red Loaded Revolution Odium Felo de Se The 2011 Era New Name for Every Show Clusterf*ck I'm sure there are more.

Hybrid certainly rings a bell to me. Actually all of those except Felo De Se ring a bell. Lol.

the idea of a different name every show is a very good one, if we get rid of the notion "LETS MAKE IT AS SILLY AS POSSIBLE BECAUSE WE'RE ECCENTRIC!". We don't need Caturday and Rebecca Black nonsense, but serious show names on a show by show basis would fit well, and there's a massive pool of potential singular event names to choose from. We're following a "weekly TV format" with shows once a month. It doesn't make any sense. I get that years ago, we were modeled after WWE/WCW/whatever, but now a days we follow a model more similar to CZW or ROH.
That said, taking a page from ROH would be my best suggestion. Shows once a month, current schedule.. Every show has a different name. We maintain a "TV show" though within the show, time constraints and everything aren't acknowledged because it's a "raw feed", unedited. The way it happened live. Like ROH, we'll keep the big shows. Superbrawl namely. Get rid of either Survival of the Fittest or the big all in battle royal, it's redundant to have both of them and is basically a tool for lazy booked main event programs.

I remember making a ROH schedule style suggestion way back when and I still think it's an interesting way of going about things. Plus you take things down that route and you don't have to obey the whole "every angle has to build four shows to a single pay per view match" thing and can run some medium-big matches whenenver the situation calls for it.
That gets my vote.

Don't let it degenerate into a bunch of anime con pop culture references and I like it. It'd also make it easier to reference "at show title" rather than "last week" in segs since that makes no sense with our complete lack of a schedule.

I fifth? that idea. Sounds awesome. If you had the National, International or Tag Titles main event some of those shows, it'll bring some competition in those specific divisions. I like the idea Schneider.
