Overall thoughts on show?
*
The Show started off with a bang as Mark Rivera reinstated the Hardkore Title. The Empire was poised to make a splash on the night. Were they successful in moving the balance of power?
Immanuel Taylor was able to overcome Bane in an epic match between two rookies. Thoughts?
TITAN came to the ring in very bad shape. He argued that he was screwed at BRH, catching the ear of Kirk Kennedy. TITAN was granted a rematch for the title but there was a catch. Should he lose, there would be no further rematches during Sabora's tenure as Champion. Will this work out for TITAN or has he just shot himself in the foot? Also, can he heal in time?
The tag team scene is heating up now without a doubt. Damaged Goods and The Extreme Jeckel Brothers came out to play as well as Drunk Ass Men. The LVC seems to have their hands full here. Will they be able to remain on top? Or have we not even seen the tip of the iceberg. They do have friends in high places after all.
Brett Cross defeated Danny Tenfold in a very even match. Oddly enough, it was revealed that Cross's torment was actually self inflicted, something that the EUW World Champion knows a bit about. Will Chris Sabora and Brett Cross form a mighty alliance? Or is this destined to turn out bad?
Warrior and F-1 seemed determined to get on a winning streak, yet it was Jace Ambrose who came up the winner, earning himself a shot at the EUW Hardkore Title. Ambrose seems like a star in the making. We can not count out F-1 and Warrior though. Thoughts?
The return of Dante Holly was something that fans welcomed as the costumed hero reunited with his former boss, Mark Rivera. Thoughts?
The Empire decided to flex their power and unveil the line up that they have assembled thus far. It was a who's who list of A-List power houses! In the middle of the celebration, the power went out, leaving a message from some unknown source. Who is "I heard You" and will this be the turning point against the Empire?
Mark Rivera and Shawn Ashen seem to know one another prior to the EUW. This adds a 3rd leg to the story here. Thoughts?
Finally, the brand has been split. The fed is now known as the EUW Empire. Will this tear the company apart or will things work out?

Favorite Face: Kirk hands down. Baby face of the company and with everything going on the fact that he's still trying to settling things with words is touching.
Favorite Heel: Hard to say but the name change is what really got me so Chad gets it again
Favorite Match: The four way. Epic writing with an epic ending
Favorite moment of the show: Either the end with the "I heard you" Or personally when Bull and Roy talked. Shows where Bull lies and kept the air of mystery around Roy
Overall thoughts on show? Amazing story lines have just been unearthed. I can't wait for the next SNV just to see what happens. Epic show

They added to their numbers. Put members in prime positions and changed the name, I'd say the damn sure shifted the power.
Immanuel Taylor was able to overcome Bane in an epic match between two rookies. Thoughts?
Good showing for both men. Lets see if they'll take sides. (lol I'm one to talk)
TITAN came to the ring in very bad shape. He argued that he was screwed at BRH, catching the ear of Kirk Kennedy. TITAN was granted a rematch for the title but there was a catch. Should he lose, there would be no further rematches during Sabora's tenure as Champion. Will this work out for TITAN or has he just shot himself in the foot? Also, can he heal in time?
The injury is the main issue he won't be 100% in a month but he'll compete and then be unable to compete for the championship while Sabora holds it. It was brash and stupid. He should have shut up licked his wounds and waited. Heal up and at the ppv after B2R jump Sabora and then ask for the rematch cause he got screwed.

Will they be able to remain on top? Or have we not even seen the tip of the iceberg. They do have friends in high places after all.
LVC doesn't have their hands full. No contenders have been named and they get to scout the field without competing. Might as well get use to them champions they'll be there for a while. But i will say the iceberg is only just showing it's tip.
Brett Cross defeated Danny Tenfold in a very even match. Oddly enough, it was revealed that Cross's torment was actually self inflicted, something that the EUW World Champion knows a bit about. Will Chris Sabora and Brett Cross form a mighty alliance? Or is this destined to turn out bad?
Not bad but not good. Brett without these demons means a fully controlled Brett. Not good for anyone in his targets. But i don't see Sabora wanting an alliance. They both seem to be the types to not chose sides and stay out of the politics.
Warrior and F-1 seemed determined to get on a winning streak, yet it was Jace Ambrose who came up the winner, earning himself a shot at the EUW Hardkore Title. Ambrose seems like a star in the making. We can not count out F-1 and Warrior though. Thoughts?
Triple threat or more for that new title. Good luck to all.
The return of Dante Holly was something that fans welcomed as the costumed hero reunited with his former boss, Mark Rivera. Thoughts?
Tool. And be careful what you wish for Dante you just might get it
The Empire decided to flex their power and unveil the line up that they have assembled thus far. It was a who's who list of A-List power houses! In the middle of the celebration, the power went out, leaving a message from some unknown source. Who is "I heard You" and will this be the turning point against the Empire?
Toby is back in my opinion. Dante went looking for him and he wanted to return the favor. I think he might bring the rest of the locker room together. That said if the empire recruits many more it might not matter
Mark Rivera and Shawn Ashen seem to know one another prior to the EUW. This adds a 3rd leg to the story here. Thoughts?
How else could they fund this take over. Saw it coming. yea money
Finally, the brand has been split. The fed is now known as the EUW Empire. Will this tear the company apart or will things work out?
Some will be pissed others won't care. There is already a split this will just make it bigger. but whose on whose side and whose working multiple angles. Be careful who you trust being back stabbed could end either side rather quickly

Favorite Face: Got to be Kirk Kennedy, really. Drunk Ass Men looked good, but I think Kirk edges them out.
Favorite Heel: Mark Rivera. He's showing more and more who is actually pulling the strings here, with Chad looking more and more like his puppet.
Favorite Match: The Fatal Fourway. Very well written, easily on a par with some of the best matches from Blood Red Horizons.
Favorite moment of the show: Probably going with Chuck's reaction to the arrival of Allison Williams and Heath Savage. Something about that section just amused me.
Overall thoughts on show? Another great show. Plenty of stuff to look forwards to in the coming year. BRH felt like the end of something (and rightly so), this is clearly the start of the new era. From the name change to the Empire's vicious recruitment drive, things are certainly starting to heat up!
*
The Show started off with a bang as Mark Rivera reinstated the Hardkore Title. The Empire was poised to make a splash on the night. Were they successful in moving the balance of power?
Nope. Not even close! The Empire whited out at BRH, only managing to capture the tag titles in a match that they couldn't lose and now, they haven't fared any better. Their only champions got beaten by a newly-formed team and, whilst they recruited a number of stars, they're yet to show any dominance in the ring.
Immanuel Taylor was able to overcome Bane in an epic match between two rookies. Thoughts?
Fresh meat. Immanuel seems to be truly neutral to just about everything, I don't see him getting involved in any of the storylines here. He's just a guy that wants to wrestle.
TITAN came to the ring in very bad shape. He argued that he was screwed at BRH, catching the ear of Kirk Kennedy. TITAN was granted a rematch for the title but there was a catch. Should he lose, there would be no further rematches during Sabora's tenure as Champion. Will this work out for TITAN or has he just shot himself in the foot? Also, can he heal in time?
Through the miracle of PLOT MAGIC, I'm sure that TITAN will heal or not heal in time for the PPV depending on the situation. I'm guessing it all depends on how Sabora's doing. If the champ is in good form, then TITAN won't heal and will be able to challenge again later. If he actually goes in for the match, then he'll be healed enough to compete. Whether or not he'll win is anyone's guess.
The tag team scene is heating up now without a doubt. Damaged Goods and The Extreme Jeckel Brothers came out to play as well as Drunk Ass Men. The LVC seems to have their hands full here. Will they be able to remain on top? Or have we not even seen the tip of the iceberg. They do have friends in high places after all.
Good to see the tag division thriving. Plenty of competition there, those titles might not stay with the LVC for very long...
Brett Cross defeated Danny Tenfold in a very even match. Oddly enough, it was revealed that Cross's torment was actually self inflicted, something that the EUW World Champion knows a bit about. Will Chris Sabora and Brett Cross form a mighty alliance? Or is this destined to turn out bad?
Hard to call. Sabora has his pick of the roster for a partner, really, but a deranged Viking is probably the first choice for most people. It'll either last for a while, or it'll collapse in the next show instead.
Warrior and F-1 seemed determined to get on a winning streak, yet it was Jace Ambrose who came up the winner, earning himself a shot at the EUW Hardkore Title. Ambrose seems like a star in the making. We can not count out F-1 and Warrior though. Thoughts?
Jace has finally arrived. Be afraid!
The return of Dante Holly was something that fans welcomed as the costumed hero reunited with his former boss, Mark Rivera. Thoughts?
Always good to have a superhero around. He's being played but it's just a question of how long it will last before he sees through it. He may need someone else to show him this fact, but he'll turn on Rivera eventually.
The Empire decided to flex their power and unveil the line up that they have assembled thus far. It was a who's who list of A-List power houses! In the middle of the celebration, the power went out, leaving a message from some unknown source. Who is "I heard You" and will this be the turning point against the Empire?
I think I have a few ideas about who that might be. As for the turning point... Well, the cards have been played now. This is a war, people are picking sides, but I can see a three way split being a possibility. People like F-1 and Roy Viper are clearly not picking a side publicly just yet. They could well form a third faction with other neutrals to make things really interesting around here!
Mark Rivera and Shawn Ashen seem to know one another prior to the EUW. This adds a 3rd leg to the story here. Thoughts?
Money talks and the world listens. Ashen's got plenty of it, so he likely bailed Rivera out of jail or whatever, then bought his way into the company. He'll be expecting something in return for his investment though and I can't see him being too happy if he doesn't get it.
Finally, the brand has been split. The fed is now known as the EUW Empire. Will this tear the company apart or will things work out?
We're heading for a big fat multi-man tag match. It's going to be monumental.

Favorite Match: The Main Event.
Favorite moment of the show: The Finale.
Overall thoughts on show? Excellent. Another solid show.

The Show started off with a bang as Mark Rivera reinstated the Hardkore Title. The Empire was poised to make a splash on the night. Were they successful in moving the balance of power?
The really did spread their wings. Let's just hope they do not spread them too far.
Immanuel Taylor was able to overcome Bane in an epic match between two rookies. Thoughts?
Both of these men are hot commodities in the arm race.
TITAN came to the ring in very bad shape. He argued that he was screwed at BRH, catching the ear of Kirk Kennedy. TITAN was granted a rematch for the title but there was a catch. Should he lose, there would be no further rematches during Sabora's tenure as Champion. Will this work out for TITAN or has he just shot himself in the foot? Also, can he heal in time?
TITAN has the Empire backing him. Something smells fishy.
The tag team scene is heating up now without a doubt. Damaged Goods and The Extreme Jeckel Brothers came out to play as well as Drunk Ass Men. The LVC seems to have their hands full here. Will they be able to remain on top? Or have we not even seen the tip of the iceberg. They do have friends in high places after all.
The LVC are representing the tag division very well. It will be hard to knock them off of their perch.
Brett Cross defeated Danny Tenfold in a very even match. Oddly enough, it was revealed that Cross's torment was actually self inflicted, something that the EUW World Champion knows a bit about. Will Chris Sabora and Brett Cross form a mighty alliance? Or is this destined to turn out bad?
Sabora + Cross = End of the World.
The return of Dante Holly was something that fans welcomed as the costumed hero reunited with his former boss, Mark Rivera. Thoughts?
Mark uses people to suit his needs. Dante should know this by now.
The Empire decided to flex their power and unveil the line up that they have assembled thus far. It was a who's who list of A-List power houses! In the middle of the celebration, the power went out, leaving a message from some unknown source. Who is "I heard You" and will this be the turning point against the Empire?
It will be a turning point no matter how you look at it. Sometimes, you should let sleeping dogs lie..
Finally, the brand has been split. The fed is now known as the EUW Empire. Will this tear the company apart or will things work out?
I have never seen the EUW go through something of this magnitude before. There has been super factions, corrupt owners, but never a full on brand split. Things will have to get much worse before they can get better..

Favorite Face: DAM!
Favorite Heel: Jace without a shadow of a doubt
Favorite Match: Actually, I have to say mine for a change
Favorite moment of the show: Laurel being made Dante's side kick.
Overall thoughts on show? Well written and full of action and unexpected events

The Show started off with a bang as Mark Rivera reinstated the Hardkore Title. The Empire was poised to make a splash on the night. Were they successful in moving the balance of power? There will never be a balance of power with all those big headed money lovers.
Immanuel Taylor was able to overcome Bane in an epic match between two rookies. Thoughts? And so begins the journey along the road of the EUW
TITAN came to the ring in very bad shape. He argued that he was screwed at BRH, catching the ear of Kirk Kennedy. TITAN was granted a rematch for the title but there was a catch. Should he lose, there would be no further rematches during Sabora's tenure as Champion. Will this work out for TITAN or has he just shot himself in the foot? Also, can he heal in time? There's always a plan and where there's a will there's a way.
The tag team scene is heating up now without a doubt. Damaged Goods and The Extreme Jeckel Brothers came out to play as well as Drunk Ass Men. The LVC seems to have their hands full here. Will they be able to remain on top? Or have we not even seen the tip of the iceberg. They do have friends in high places after all. All are talented and are going to make for an intense tag division.
Brett Cross defeated Danny Tenfold in a very even match. Oddly enough, it was revealed that Cross's torment was actually self inflicted, something that the EUW World Champion knows a bit about. Will Chris Sabora and Brett Cross form a mighty alliance? Or is this destined to turn out bad? I think they'll be sparring each other in no time and plotting against the Empire in no time.
Warrior and F-1 seemed determined to get on a winning streak, yet it was Jace Ambrose who came up the winner, earning himself a shot at the EUW Hardkore Title. Ambrose seems like a star in the making. We can not count out F-1 and Warrior though. Thoughts? Jace is fucking solid an was overlooked with the introduction of Tenfold...now you the EUW can experience what I saw in the beginning
The return of Dante Holly was something that fans welcomed as the costumed hero reunited with his former boss, Mark Rivera. Thoughts? It's Dante Holly...I can't help but imagine a kid running around in a costume.
The Empire decided to flex their power and unveil the line up that they have assembled thus far. It was a who's who list of A-List power houses! In the middle of the celebration, the power went out, leaving a message from some unknown source. Who is "I heard You" and will this be the turning point against the Empire? Has to be Toby and that will be the bane of the Empire
Mark Rivera and Shawn Ashen seem to know one another prior to the EUW. This adds a 3rd leg to the story here. Thoughts? The plot thickens...
Finally, the brand has been split. The fed is now known as the EUW Empire. Will this tear the company apart or will things work out?
Apparently it all seems contengent on Rivera.

Favorite Face: Kirk really showed that he's ready to fight the Empire, and is getting out of the gate and making preparation. Favorite Heel: Mark Rivera..Who is the puppet, and who is the puppeteer? Favorite Match: Taylor/Bane was definitely the surprise of the night. A great showcase from both rookies! Favorite moment of the show: The showcasing of the Empire followed by "I Heard You". Definitely sets the scene for the next show. Overall thoughts on show?Well written and well put together. Also, fucking giant kudos to Jaden for getting that shit out early. Amazing work! * The Show started off with a bang as Mark Rivera reinstated the Hardkore Title. The Empire was poised to make a splash on the night. Were they successful in moving the balance of power?The Praetors are taking positions of power. The Emperor is fielding his best men and choosing his guards for the Empire. Bringing in the title means another position of power. The Empire is much smarter than its spiritual forefather: The Council. Immanuel Taylor was able to overcome Bane in an epic match between two rookies. Thoughts?A very good showing from both men (My match of the week) I look forward to seeing what both men can do, especially Taylor. Being a former soldier, you can expect that Taylor is going to be all-business in that ring. TITAN came to the ring in very bad shape. He argued that he was screwed at BRH, catching the ear of Kirk Kennedy. TITAN was granted a rematch for the title but there was a catch. Should he lose, there would be no further rematches during Sabora's tenure as Champion. Will this work out for TITAN or has he just shot himself in the foot? Also, can he heal in time?To count out Praetor TITAN would be foolish. The problem Sabora faces is that he is now against an opponent who knows him like the back of his hand: TITAN knows what to expect, whats to come, and how to avoid and/or counter it. Giving TITAN another chance is giving Sabora his final rites. The tag team scene is heating up now without a doubt. Damaged Goods and The Extreme Jeckel Brothers came out to play as well as Drunk Ass Men. The LVC seems to have their hands full here. Will they be able to remain on top? Or have we not even seen the tip of the iceberg. They do have friends in high places after all.Caesar lost in battle to the Gauls before he conquered them and swallowed them whole. I will be watching and scanning the competitors very carefully, but as for CJ and Bull? I know what to expect now, and I won't be busy next time. Brett Cross defeated Danny Tenfold in a very even match. Oddly enough, it was revealed that Cross's torment was actually self inflicted, something that the EUW World Champion knows a bit about. Will Chris Sabora and Brett Cross form a mighty alliance? Or is this destined to turn out bad?Hegelian dialectics: A thesis has been formed, with Sabora extending an alliance to the mighty Viking, but we still need to go through a vital stage: Antithesis, the contradiction or negation of the thesis. Sabora needs to put Cross on the same page, or somehow turn Cross back into his right mindset. For Sabora, with the Empire sending its best warriors to face him? This could prove to be a step too far. It is a double-edged sword: Tread carefully and gain a powerful ally, tread too meekly or insult the giant, and gain a powerful enemy. Warrior and F-1 seemed determined to get on a winning streak, yet it was Jace Ambrose who came up the winner, earning himself a shot at the EUW Hardkore Title. Ambrose seems like a star in the making. We can not count out F-1 and Warrior though. Thoughts?Ambrose took his loss at Blood Red Horizons and turned it into a win and valuable momentum. This is good: History is written by wolves, not sheep. If Ambrose can continue performing like he did, he's going to be going places. That being said, I feel that Fallen One will take his independent position and craft it to form a brilliant position to gain momentum. I feel that Ambrose and F1 haven't seen the last of eachother.. The return of Dante Holly was something that fans welcomed as the costumed hero reunited with his former boss, Mark Rivera. Thoughts?Hilarious stuff as always, anything that involves Dante always seems to provide a laugh..Poor Laurel, being demoted to sidekick ;( Also, is Vincent Ellis officially dead? That sucks! The Empire decided to flex their power and unveil the line up that they have assembled thus far. It was a who's who list of A-List power houses! In the middle of the celebration, the power went out, leaving a message from some unknown source. Who is "I heard You" and will this be the turning point against the Empire?Of course not. The Empire is eternal, to say that a mysterious voice saying "I Heard You" will provide a turning point when the person can't even reveal themself is highly fallacious. Mark Rivera and Shawn Ashen seem to know one another prior to the EUW. This adds a 3rd leg to the story here. Thoughts?Ashen is in the perfect position as a wild card here, and he obviously doesn't have to worry about alliances since he's a self-made man. He has a great neutral position here..but I can't see him playing the role of Switzerland for too long. Finally, the brand has been split. The fed is now known as the EUW Empire. Will this tear the company apart or will things work out?Undoubtedly, a schism will form within the federation between those worthy enough to carry the new flag, and those unwilling to carry the flag. ((I fucking love talking in-character for this storyline!! It's just like the perfect storyline to really get into the mindset of a character! Also, glad to hear the Four Way is getting good reviews ))

Favorite Face: Kirk Favorite Heel: Mark Favorite Match: Fatal Fourway Favorite moment of the show: Tie between the ending, and them bringing in the Hardkore title Overall thoughts on show? (Congratulations! ) (You can have this. ) Brains. * The Show started off with a bang as Mark Rivera reinstated the Hardkore Title. The Empire was poised to make a splash on the night. Were they successful in moving the balance of power?I say we get those jewbags out of power and let the inmates run the nut-house. Then again, with Rivera and Chad in charge, that's where it's heading anyway. Immanuel Taylor was able to overcome Bane in an epic match between two rookies. Thoughts?Meh. Two rookies going at it. Then again, we were all rookies once. Good showing from both of them, but if one of them could overcome Sabora, or TITAN, or Cross, then I'll be impressed. TITAN came to the ring in very bad shape. He argued that he was screwed at BRH, catching the ear of Kirk Kennedy. TITAN was granted a rematch for the title but there was a catch. Should he lose, there would be no further rematches during Sabora's tenure as Champion. Will this work out for TITAN or has he just shot himself in the foot? Also, can he heal in time?This says it all. The tag team scene is heating up now without a doubt. Damaged Goods and The Extreme Jeckel Brothers came out to play as well as Drunk Ass Men. The LVC seems to have their hands full here. Will they be able to remain on top? Or have we not even seen the tip of the iceberg. They do have friends in high places after all.Shit gonna get real, real fast. Brett Cross defeated Danny Tenfold in a very even match. Oddly enough, it was revealed that Cross's torment was actually self inflicted, something that the EUW World Champion knows a bit about. Will Chris Sabora and Brett Cross form a mighty alliance? Or is this destined to turn out bad?Sabora alone is holy fuck nuggets. Teaming with crazy viking who might still be crazy? RUN FOR THE HILLS!!! Warrior and F-1 seemed determined to get on a winning streak, yet it was Jace Ambrose who came up the winner, earning himself a shot at the EUW Hardkore Title. Ambrose seems like a star in the making. We can not count out F-1 and Warrior though. Thoughts?Somebody gonna get they ass kicked. And, for once, it won't be me! lol The return of Dante Holly was something that fans welcomed as the costumed hero reunited with his former boss, Mark Rivera. Thoughts?I honestly don't know how to answer this one. Cause, Dante is Dante. The Empire decided to flex their power and unveil the line up that they have assembled thus far. It was a who's who list of A-List power houses! In the middle of the celebration, the power went out, leaving a message from some unknown source. Who is "I heard You" and will this be the turning point against the Empire?My guess is Toby, or Oblivion. Either way, shit gonna get real. Mark Rivera and Shawn Ashen seem to know one another prior to the EUW. This adds a 3rd leg to the story here. Thoughts?GTFO Senior Rich Pants Finally, the brand has been split. The fed is now known as the EUW Empire. Will this tear the company apart or will things work out?I've said shit gonna get real at least twice, so I'm changing things up now. Honestly, I see more of an implosion then shit getting worked out. As long as I'm gettin to kick ass, I really don't care.
