Default Re: Diverging Paths - A Current WWE BTB

Thanks for the review, mate, now I'd like to address some of the stuff you said:

You're right. I overused the stipulations, but I'd like to make it clear that this show was a one-time thing. Although stipulation matches will be recurrent, you wo9n't see a show like this again. I was trying out a lot of these matches to see how I do writing them, once I have a PPV with stipulations, I want it to be perfect, so this test run was helpful.


Quote:
Tables Match: Suplex through the table to end the match? Hmmm, not really amazing is it. still at least it was part of the three amigo's. Kudos on making Chavo advance though. He is under used by most and by the WWE for a while. Hope to see him a major player on ECW.
I really like Chavo, and I'll be trying to push him in the future. I initially wanted to end with a splash, but in the end I felt like the Three Amigos through the table could legitimately finish a match, so I went with that instead of the first idea. Mostly because otherwise, Chavo would seem like he won by a huge margin, and I wanted to seem like a closer match than that.

Quote:
Chain Match: Both men are fairly green, so putting them in a chain match seems very odd and the weapon was never used and there were submissions to wear down an opponent in a chain match? wtf? Weak match right here. Thankfully the right person won.
I don't understand what a man being fairly green means, could you explain?

Quote:
Cane Match: I liked how they used weapons as the match progressed but the whole cane after cane thing, I could not imagine Borne doing that as he is a goody good guy. As cool as the ending was this was a cane match and the end spot used a trash can. Not impressed.
That's quite true, I'm glad you pointed that out, because I wouldn't have noticed otherwise.

Quote:
TLC: Since you already had a tables match, I thought a ladder match here would suffice. Great move changing Finlay for Hardy, my only problem is now Hardy must win right? Nooo, Kozlov that damn bastard. Great match and I loved how you made the champ stay strong. My only problem is with the logic. If Hardy won what would have happened? MOTN easily
Sorry if that wasn't clear. Basically, the match was a qualification match, only that only Morrison could qualify. So if Hardy won, Morrison wouldn't be in the next match.

Quote:
Extreme Rules: Its about time Dreamer got a push. As much as I dislike Khali as a wrestler, you did bury him quite fast. Not much say here. Backstage thing after makes me feel that Teddy will quit and maybe Heyman return? Oh and good job in making Dreamer win. You should push him.
I went against making this match long because this is part of a feud, a long match here would take away from this feud's ending. I think Khali getting beaten quickly leaves their relationship tense, which is what I wanted.

Quote:
Main Event: Would be fun see Atlas try throwing a chair in the ring. I liked how Kozlov dominated and you made him look really strong, so I though the aftermath when Hardy hit him with the Twist of Fate was a bit dumb.
I thought Kozlov was 'winning' too much so far. Hardy is the champion and being beaten down by Kozlov weak in weak out and never come out on top makes him seem weak, IMO, this way Kozlov comes out as a strong contender, but Matt continues being the man to beat.

Quote:
Overall: I felt that although your ideas are fun and the layout is well done, so it is a pleasure to read. You really do need to learn what works and what doesn't. I think the BTB'ing world is new to you, so each review will help you get better and better. So don't take this review as a knock, but more as way of helping you get better. There is a reason the WWE would never produce an ECW like this. Think about why that is
Cheers mate. Thanks again for the review. I think ECW is currently the weakest show, so I'm trying to improve it as much as possible. Obviously some ideas will fall flat, but reviews like these will help me realise what these are. So thanks.

The WWE.com segment will be up later today.
