Anarchy Tour – Stage 5 Alt:Pro in Berlin, Germany 1) JNR: Winston Knight def. Will Manor 2) Jake Swindell, Vincent Valintino and Pablo 'Speedy' Gonzalez def. Ron Crockett, Alexander Kuleshov, Rory Wiseman. After the match, Mike Bockwinkel and Lord Jamerson did a quick run in to attack the winners before exiting as revenge for Bock’s promo being interrupted at the last SNW show. 3) Junior Qualifier: Arthur Williams def. Antonio Benitez 4) Blaze Brothers (Max and Lloyd Blaze) def. Made in Detroit (Tobias Black and Nate Ryan). After the match, SNW’s Riley Shamrock arrived and looked for revenge against the Blaze Brothers but they backed down as Riley got closer. 5) AJ Matthews vs. Jack Powers went a double countout 6) TAG: Fire and the Fury (Vincent Fury and Johnny Arsenic) def. Three Lions (Elliot Reid and Noah Lee) SNW's Kevin Hart stormed the ring at the end of the intermission to call out Mike Hogan, who jumped him from behind. The two had a wild brawl around the area before it was broken up by staff. Hogan hit a senton into all of the staff off part of a bleacher before the two were dragged away. 7) IC: Dane Warron def. Patrick R Everson (3rd Champion) in a huge upset. Everson threw the much smaller Warron around but got cocky which allowed Warron chances to battle back into the match. Just when Everson looked to have retained, Warron managed to use up his last amount of energy to hit the DeathStrike to win the Intercontinental title. 8) WLD: Evan Pagano def. Jax Anderson

I've contacted the MOD again so hoping we can get a response. I wanna give him the benefit of the doubt as it's a strange time at the moment so his priorities may be elsewhere. But we still need this sorted.
I've also contacted an Admin as a heads up and also spoke about whether there's a possibility they would give me temporary MOD access so I can update what I need to update and then revoke my abilities. I'm not holding out on this but thought I'd ask. It's also only a short term option and we'd need to think of something long-term.
I agree with all said about regarding the Board. I do think we need to think about how feasible some of these ideas (like is it actually feasible to have a spotlight across the entire forum? Maybe I'm being pessimistic here but I can't see that being agreed). With all these ideas we'd also need people to commit to doing the work, so whilst I agree the rules and guidelines need updating, someone needs to actually do the work.
I'm happy with the writers and diaries nominated here. Re GATTACA wasn't there another thread off the back of this, if you're able to find it maybe we can put them in together as an anthology like I planned for SCW? Re the writers (Kev, AJ, HEELRyan, me and Bob) I'm happy to do the introduction speeches but more than happy if someone else wanted to take one or all of these.
In the interest of full disclosure, I really want to get this sorted ASAP. I don't want to commit to anything after 2 weeks time as I'm expecting to be busy in my personal life so may not have time for this Board in the short term. Of course, it may end up being fine but just wanted to mention it in case I disappear in two weeks time.

I've contacted the MOD but haven't heard back. I'll give him some time but can chase. If not, I can escalate to get this sorted.
Any other thoughts? I realise it's basically just me putting stuff forward so would appreciate some input.

I was a big fan of your AEW diary so will be interested to how you write ECW. Loved the design of the first show. Realistically booked. Looking forward to more.

Cheers, what started as a quick look at the Board to find any HOF related diaries turned into a bit of a deep dive. If something is worth doing, it's worth doing well, right?
Re your NXT diary, I think it got overlooked previously and just because the graphics no longer work, doesn't make it any less worthy. I am loving your attitude diary at the moment, probably my favourite which I can remember from you which is saying a lot considering what you've produced over the years. Even though it's still running it's deserving because if it ended today, it's good enough to go in.
I made my feelings clear a few years ago on what I think makes a HOF diary. For me, there needs to be an element of longevity. It could be the best diary in the World but only last 2 pages and I wouldn't consider that a HOF diary. But the focus should still be on the writing/booking.
C'mon folks, any other thoughts/suggestions?
Also looking the MOD to confirm their willing to make the necessary changes to the HOF thread.

I don't think we're going to get any objections to Kev, AJ and HEELRyan in the HOF. So I think we can go ahead and confirm them. Any other suggestions for writers? Hell, if nobody else is going to nominate me, I'll put my own name out there. In terms of diaries to be inducted, I've had a flick through the last few pages. Seems that there were diaries last inducted in 2016. Here's some worthy inductees in my mind: DTP's The Attitude Project forum.wrestlingfigs.com/thread/360969/attitude-project-smackdown-october-2000Warriorlynx What if anthologies. forum.wrestlingfigs.com/thread/359277/anthologies-19-jericho-face-wwfDTP and AJ WWENTERTAINMENT forum.wrestlingfigs.com/thread/358844/dtp-present-wwentertainment-raw-03?page=1 Warriorlynx WWF 93-98 forum.wrestlingfigs.com/thread/345861/wwf-1993-attitude-survivor-series?page=1Kill Em All WWE 08-10 forum.wrestlingfigs.com/thread/347116/world-wrestling-entertainment-2008-2010?page=1Warriorlynx WWF 86-91 forum.wrestlingfigs.com/thread/338975/1986-1991-sting-world-title?page=1Mike Bockwinkel - Mike Bockwinkel Promotions/TCW forum.wrestlingfigs.com/thread/156152/nick-bockwinkel-promotions-tournament-info An older one but I remember loving this: DTP The NXT Generation forum.wrestlingfigs.com/thread/311602/nxt-generation-8-2014-postedEven further back: Duan NWL Season 2 (look how much I ripped this off with the WF League, ha!) Season 1 is in the HOF already, no reason Season 2 shouldn't be: forum.wrestlingfigs.com/thread/182334/nwl-national-wrestling-league-seasonKamestou's SCW was a huge inspiration for me. Without it there would be no SNW. I misremembered thinking he only did one SCW diary which is in the HOF but looking into it, only his initial diary is in there (NWL) but the two SCW reboots are not. To me, all three are worthy. I suggest we put the three in as an anthology, even if it's just under one entry. forum.wrestlingfigs.com/thread/80100/scw-12-8-08-newswire?page=1forum.wrestlingfigs.com/thread/95276/scw-2-noah-results-1Thoughts, comments, suggestions?

Anarchy Tour 2021 In the build up to Riot Act XIV (which will feature SNW vs. Alt:Pro including three massive title Unification bouts) the two companies will go on a six show tour of Europe. Stage 1 – SNW from Madrid, Spain Stage 2 – Alt:Pro from Barcelona, Spain Stage 3 – SNW from Paris, France Stage 4 – SNW from Amsterdam, Netherlands Stage 5 – Alt:Pro from Berlin, Germany Stage 6 – SNW from Munich, Germany Ahead of the title Unification bout between the SNW World Champion and the Alt:Pro World Heavyweight Champion at Riot Act XIV, it has been announced that every stage will include either a SNW Championship match or an Alt:Pro Heavyweight Championship match. This opens up the possibilities for the main event of Riot Act XIV. The challengers to both titles have been announced but it has not been announced which events these will take place. SNW Championship challengers on the Anarchy Tour 2021 – current Champion, Henry Edwards: Vincent Fury – With the Alt:Pro Heavyweight Champion in the hands of SNW, can Fury do the unthinkable and win the SNW title and take it to Alt:Pro? Chris Hammers – Using his rematch clause from TWELVE, Hammers will look to win back his gold. Kevin Hart – After being screwed out of the title at Clash of the Duos by Alt:Pro's Mike Hogan. Hart has been granted another title opportunity. Jack Powers – Continuing his record streak of most Magnificent 10 wins, Powers became the no.1 contender. Alt:Pro Heavyweight Championship challengers on the Anarchy Tour 2021 – current Champion, Evan Pagano [representing SNW]: Jax Anderson – the cocky IC title finalist, called out Champion Pagano at the last show, laying his claim to the title but he has been defeated recently by... A.J Matthews – after beating Jax, AJ became the no.1 contender and holds a victory over Pagano in six-man action. The first ever Champion will be looking to bring the title back home to Alt:Pro. Interestingly, Alt:Pro’s Mike Hogan is not listed as a challenger despite having a rematch clause after losing the Alt:Pro title to SNW's Evan Pagano. It was rumoured that Hogan would win back the title and rival Kevin Hart would win the SNW Championship, leading to the rivals facing each other at Riot Act XIV in the main event.

An't nobody else doing it so I may as well.
The Hall of Fame was last updated 6 years ago. I know the board isn't what it once was but there's plenty of diaries deserving of the HOF which haven't yet been inducted.
Plus, the HOF could do with some new writer inductees. A few obvious choices off the top of my head are Kevin Hart, AJ and HEELRyan.
Opening this up for discussion. Please suggest any diaries and writers for consideration.
I know we used to do a vote but given there's probably not that many active board members, maybe we can just agree between us and the MOD can make the changes?

Queen of the Ring 2021 The women’s single elimination tournament returns for the second time. 3 years ago Taliah Winters walked in and out of the tournament as Champion. She now looks to repeat this feat, this time in her second reign as Champion. With Chris Hammers setting the same precedent in the Champions Carnival last year, can Winters follow in his footsteps or will one of the other competitors rise to the challenge and become the new Women's Champion and Queen of the Ring 2021? Below are the competitors for the one night tournament. Unlike in 2018, all competitors are from SNW (and Synergy) with no outside talent. Taliah Winters – Champion and 2018 Winner Amy Lee Kourtney Love Gertrude Von Grimm Red Fire Tickles the Clown Zelda Williams Sarah Stone First round matches: WOM: Taliah Winters vs. Zelda Williams Amy Lee vs. Gertrude Von Grimm Kourtney Love vs. Red Fire Tickles the Clown vs. Sarah Stone Plus non-tournament action.

SNW News – 2021 schedule released SNW have released their schedule for 2021. The main change is Be the Best, which is usually held at the beginning of the year in the build up to Riot Act, to be moved till after Riot Act. In its place is a joint tour between SNW and Alt:Pro to build to the massive Riot Act XIV. The Tour will be held across Europe with 4 SNW shows and 2 Alt:Pro shows but there will be plenty of crossover. Also in the schedule for 2021 is the Second Tri Nations Cup which will be once again held in the UK and kicking off the year will be the single elimination women’s tournament, Queen of the Ring. More shows may be annoying as the year goes on. January: Queen of the Ring 2021 February: Anarchy Tour Stage 1 and 2 March: Anarchy Tour Stage 3 and 4 April: Anarchy Tour Stage 5 and 6 June: Riot Act XIV July: Be the Best qualifiers (Nights 1 & 2) August: Be the Best qualifier (Night 3) and Tiebreaker Night September: Be the Best 2021 October: Thirteen (Anniversary Show) December- Clash of the Duos 2021 (3 Nights) and Tri Nations Cup 2021 Jason Williams has returned from his excursion in Mexico. Jason was recently interviewed on a podcast and spoke about how much the year long stay has changed him. He said before he would constantly be compared with Jack Evans but now has ditched the baggy clothes for wrestling tights and toned down his high-flying to lose his 'spot monkey' image. Jason said he felt more like himself when he wrestles more now than he ever and credits a number of Mexican wrestlers for taking him under their wing and teaching him that 'less can be more'. Due to Jason’s success, El Hijo de Angel Custodio is now following in his footsteps and will be on excursion throughout 2021. Meanwhile Jordan Devine and Steven Kagemann will not be joining the upcoming Anarchy tour. Safu is still recovering from his recent in ring injury. He is expected to miss the tour but return soon after. Riley Shamrock gave an in-depth interview reflecting on 2020. He started by talking about his family heritage and how grateful he was that his family supported him to enrol in SNW to follow the family career. He said he was grateful for all that he has accomplished but said he has struggled mentally with knowing what’s next for him. He said regaining the SNW World title has been his main aim and he put everything into winning at Riot Act 13. He spoke of how that loss, specifically losing to former mentor Chris Hammers (who he has yet to defeat in singles action) broke him. He said he was lucky enough to get another chance at Twelve but felt because of the previous loss, he knew he was going to lose. Riley said he’s spoken to family and friends and now understands what’s next for him. He explained his end goal is to win back the SNW World Championship and defeat Chris Hammers but noted how poisonous it can be to dedicate yourself to one goal. Riley explained that he’s going on what he called a 'rebuild' and would start at the bottom of SNW like he did 10 years ago as a student and work his way back up. He explained that only then he would know that he deserves a shot at the title and would be ready, both physically and mentally, to become the Champion he knows he can be.

SNW/Alt:Pro Joint Press Conference Present: Red Dragon, Vincent Fury, Henry Edwards and Evan Pagano Red Dragon opened the press conference focusing on how SNW and Alt:Pro have been invading each others shows throughout 2020. He said that SNW and Alt:Pro have agreed that this must come to an end. As a result, it has been decided that SNW will face-off with Alt:Pro at Riot Act XIV in a battle for promotion supremacy. The show will feature the best of both promotions going head to head including: SNW World Championship and Alt:Pro World Heavyweight Championship Unification match SNW FUSE Championship and Alt:Pro Intercontinental Championship Unification match SNW Duos Championships and Alt:Pro Tag Team Championships Unification match 5 Vs 5 warfare match The SNW Women’s and Alt:Pro Junior Heavyweight title will remain unchanged. It was also announced that there would be two separate 'Countdown to the Riot' matinée shows in the Riot Act weekend which will feature those wrestlers who don’t make the main card. Vincent Fury then spoke in support of Alt:Pro. Edwards and Pagano then spoke of the unification bout noting that they want to be the man who unifies the titles. The conference closed with Edwards and Pagano facing off holding their respective titles in the air. It was noted that all current reigning champions may not be champions by Riot Act XIV. Looking at the current champions and speculating on who will face who, the most likely title to change hands is the Alt:Pro Heavyweight Championship as throughout his reign, Evan Pagano has never been named as representing Alt:Pro. Even in the press conference, he was an SNW contracted wrestler, holding an Alt:Pro title. It is speculated, that Alt:Pro will want someone representing their promotion in the main event as their champion. The most likely bet is Mike Hogan but he is currently in the middle of a feud with old rival Kevin Hart. However, Hart could possibly find himself in an SNW Championship match, so we could have Hart vs. Hogan as the main event. There are so many possibilities. It’s also worth mentioning that Alt:Pro have no further event planned after Riot Act. Although this isn’t uncommon for Alt:Pro who only put up shows up for sale a few months before the event. However, it is no secret that SNW has been financially backing Alt:Pro for years after their previous owner backed out. It could be that Alt:Pro ceases to exist post Riot Act but it will still be interesting to see what matches Alt:Pro win (if any) and who SNW keeps from Alt:Pro on their roster. However, this is all speculation and Alt:Pro may well continue following Riot Act. We will find out in 6 months time.

Ace Bennett – Record Breaker Ace Bennett and Matt Spade captured the SNW Duos titles at Clash of the Duos 2020. Both men had captured the SNW Duos Championships before but with different partners. Ace had held the titles with Kevin Hart, whilst Spade had held the titles with Sam Kineval when they were known as Youth Culture. Ace is already a Triple Crown Champion having held the SNW World, FUSE and Duos titles before but this second reign as Duos Champion along with his second reign as World Champions means that he is a second FUSE title reign away from being a double triple crown champion. The title win also brings the Duos titles back to SNW after Made in Detroit of Alt:Pro held onto them for a whole year. Even more remarkably, Ace and Matt won the Clash of the Duos tournament. This win means that in addition to being the first ever Triple Crown Champion, Ace is now the first Grand Slam Tournament Champion (ie Ace has won all 4 annual SNW tournaments) having won the inaugural Be the Best in 2010, Magnificent 10 in 2013 and the Battle for... Tournament twice (in 2009 in Japan, which is credited as launching his singles career and in the UK in 2017. Cameras caught up with Ace and Matt backstage after their title win and the champs addressed their tag team name. The fans call them the rather obvious name of ‘Ace of Spades, but when they teamed previously they jokingly refused to mention this name instead calling themselves 'Team Bennett' as a joke to how more successful Ace was than Spade. During new the video posted online, Spade calls the team 'Team Bennett' only for Ace to address this and mention that they are a team split 50/50 but offered to call the team 'Team Spade' as payback. Spade refuses in the video and teases making the 'Ace of Spades' name official only to decide on the imaginative name 'Ace Bennett and Matt Spade', which the team will now go by. As they walked off from the video, Spade is overheard jokingly remarking 'Hey where’s your sister?’ after Ace's sister, Alicia previously manages the pair.

Edwards and Hart continued fighting until Hogan recovered to attack Hart from behind with the title. Edwards, who was oblivious to this attack by Hohan, hit the HE Driver and thr now revived referees counted the three count.
