Somebody was talking about this on another board and I found the idea interesting.
I floated the idea on this board yesterday, maybe there’s some interest in it, maybe not. If anybody has anything they’d like to see or wanted to do but didn’t feel like they could do it justice, please let me know if you want me to take a crack at it and I’ll get to work right away.
For anyone who might be rightfully concerned, if I do this, I might post updates, but I’ll not be posting anything in its entirety until it’s completed.
P.S. Does anyone know where I can find a list of rosters throughout history that are accurate? I’ve been trying to find some database that lays it all out, but everything I’ve found is either incomplete or lacking in some way.
As always, thank you for your time.

Okay I like this idea of you having a go at anything we request, that’s unique to this board. I’d like to see you re-book WWF 1995 from Royal Rumble to Wrestlemania. I’m interested to see if you can pull something good out of such a crapty time in the WWF.

Really? Nice, that makes two for two on unique ideas, I guess. I hope I can keep that up.
I thought that was a particularly good time in wrestling, but, if you say so, I'd love to give it a try.
Couple things I'll need, though:
Where exactly am I starting? Is the Royal Rumble the first place to begin or do you want me to start with the lead in to the Royal Rumble, like a January 1, 1995 type deal?
Which WrestleMania am I going to? 11 or 12?
Is there anywhere that I can find the entire roster for that timeframe? This would be absolutely critical so I can keep it as accurate as possible. If no such database exists, then could I trouble you to give me a pre-approved list of individuals that I can use?
Do you have any restrictions that you'd like me to adhere to? Perhaps there are certain fixed points that you'd like left in?
You can make this as challenging as you'd like.

Go from re-booking the 1995 Rumble ppv, start the night after the RR and finish at Wrestlemania XI. So give your own results from the RR and start from Raw after. I’ll send you a database over instant message once I find one I think is adequate. |

So an interesting small 3-month quick one? Interesting, and it might be difficult for me to resist adding to it in later days.
Thus far, I haven’t found any criticism of this time in the Word Wrestling Federation that I necessarily agree with, should be an intriguing one as I dive further into it, I could even see myself changing things I’ve already written in the future.
One thing I will say is that this could have (maybe should have been?) the year where they could have started laying the groundwork for legitimate face vs face/heel vs heel/tweener matches. This feels like the pitch I’ll be making. I’ll want to keep the comic-esque, larger than life, wrestling bits, but I want the fans to know that the grey area not only exists, but is just as likely to happen as good triumphing over evil.
