~ No spamming
~ No arguing
~ Under any circumstances, NO "WELL EXCUUUUUUUSE ME, PRINCESS!"
~ You can discuss other BTBs here, it's fine. Don't shill your BTB needlessly, however
~ If you have a question regarding "What Should You Do," just go with your gut instinct
~ Do not discuss the Tournament here. There's an official discussion thread for that purpose.

Post away.

No real difference except that maybe there was a little something with the weight requirements.

Either way, for somebody who's done their research, and got a few PPV's ready, you should probably go back over your work and change it "LightHeavyweight Title", because uh, that's what it was.

I know, I just asked a question cause I wasn't sure if it was exactly the same as the Cruiser.

re: BTB Discussion Thread - July/August 2010

I find the best way to write is the do the whole thing in Word first and then edit in the post later. I'd hate to write it on the internet and then for Firefox to crash and have to do it all again which is something I've seen happen lots of times to people before. I think I'd loose motivation there and then if a whole show went down.

I have a question for you all. I'm new on these forums and was wondering what was every bodies preferred match styles? Personally I don't really like to read matches that just list hold after hold, move after move. I also leave out a lot of detail during the television shows and then add more detail when writing a pay per view. I feel that that TV is basically there to set up the PPV matches with angles etc. and don't see the need to write long, drawn out match reports on something like an easy squash match.

But the way I see it, people would be in more of a suspense if you make a preview because then people know what to expect and are waiting for it or the big promo by someone. If there isn't any sort of preview they won't know what to have suspense over.

Or at least that is how I see things.

Well since the editor tool is so gay now, I usually click editor tool mode then paste my show then click the editor tool again to go back to the normal mode it'll show all the formats and stuff change all the fonts size to 3 and then preview the post and it should be in normal size the fonts then you can go back and edit by doing the spacing and changing some other font sizes like the titles and stuff. I was wondering if there was a shorter way though

I'm not going to lie Dolph Ziggler having the sleeper I'm not a huge fan of it. Quick question as a finisher having Dolph use the cross-face a good or bad idea? When we see the crossface now its use by guys like Trips...who are established vets considering Dolph is still a youngin in the wrestling business.

re: BTB Discussion Thread - July/August 2010

I quite like the sleeper as its old school, but maybe thats a bit why it doesn't suit Ziggler greatly, although I must say he has done well in solidifying it as his move now on Smackdown and the booking of him with it has been wise, however if you want to change it then maybe I'd suggest a Fujiwara armbar variation.

re: BTB Discussion Thread - July/August 2010

Anyone have any ideas on how to do a Dragon Gate USA BTB show wise? Dragon Gate USA as of now has 2 back to back shows each month about every other month. So I am wondering, what do you guys think would be the best way to do a thread like that? Write 2 full shows each month? Write a full show with recapped matches and a show with full matches each month? Any other ideas?

re: BTB Discussion Thread - July/August 2010

I would do 2 to three shows a month. Split them up a bit. Maybe two back to back and one at the end of the month.

I think since you don't have TV or weekly shows you can take your time and do the shows in full. That way if you start with present day Dragongate USA, you can get a few show inbetween your BTB and real life. Seeing how for a full show with 2 or 3 a month it could take a week to write each show.

Then again you could have them go all ECW and get TV, or have them run every other week or weekly or whatever you want to do...its your BTB

Do you guys think it's bad booking when teammates are fighting among each other, such as Jericho and The Rock during the Invasion?
