- I've got one:
Is there anything being done to improve the timeliness of EAW shows?
Being on Showdown, I'm able to attend my own show's live show (since it's on Sunday morning for me - a good time for me to sit in chat and react) which I enjoy but as far I know - not since the first post-draft Showdown has one been live/on time iirc.
Is the fact shows aren't on time just a matter of writers (not just Showdown) not having finished a show or just not doing it because of no crowd or not posting it for some petty reason?
Like, some of the currently storylines and feuds are pretty interesting and I'd like to be able to read/see them on time rather than waiting day after day not knowing when to expect it. Dynasty should be on time, since DC is back from Japan. Voltage has been consistent under Demon. Showdown has been the main issue, and the fact that there lies no true excuse for why it is late bothers me. I just hope we can get some consistency. |

- I have 3 questions:
1. Can you give me a concrete definition of a "world champion material"? What does an e-fedder have to have? Obviously it goes beyond promoing, it's also attitude and showing up and reacting at live shows. Am I missing something else? How do you deal with people that left and coming back?
2. It's not a question but more kind of a concern. There's been a lot of promos lately that break kayfabe and talk about e-feds and stuff like that. Aren't we going overboard? Shouldn't we limit those to a very limited amount because it kind of makes promos confusing (like what you expected to say and shit) and its honestly not hard at all( like anybody can talk decent shit about EAW as an efed, but try to back that hard match that you lost some weeks ago and convince your opponent that you are better than him) . I have had to use it really recently because it came up on my adversary promos, but idk I feel it makes matches really personal, people can easily go on fighting each other and its just not fun doe.
3. How do you nominate new Hall of Famers? Also is there a limited number of people you induct in one year or you just induct whatever amount you feel like deserves? 1. I think more people than one might expect are World Champion material, but patience is a virtue. It's a long list, a long wait and its usually place and timing that would cause a person to get to the world title quickly. Being a stand-up, top notch promoer on consistency and quality means a lot and having a good attitude makes us way more comfortable in making someone champion. Someone with a bad attitude whos winy and overly pessimistic damn sure wont make anyone comfortable making them champion, because thats just a ''flop'' waiting to happen. 2. Kayfabe is a tricky thing to handle. In the case of Zack Crash acquiring AWF notion, that is completely in-character and in-script, and I think thats how things should be approached, in-script. I agree, I find it annoying when people resort to out of script irrelevant references but i guess you handle it by playing the denial game. For example if someone tells me "oh DDD u retire so much" in a promo I just answer that with "name a retirement speech of mine." If you find a good way to negate it, it may just stump ur opponent and lead you to victory. 3. We just induct who we feel deserves it for that year, as well as if the timing is fitting. We discuss it as a board several times thru out the year whenever the topic comes up. |

| Does leaving at any point affect the writers' views on you and how likely you are to become successful? I ask this mostly because of what happened at Reckless Wiring and I'm not sure if that's left a bad taste in anyone's mouth. - Spoiler:
Where's showdown?

| Yes, it does. You left a bad taste in my mouth mainly because you never told me why you left and since this is your second time, sometimes I get the feeling I couldn't trust you with a title or a push because you'll do it again. Does that mean you can't be successful? well it can change over time, depending on attitude and promo activity etc. It's more just building yourself back up and seeing how long you last blah blah.
Matts now writing SD since I told Scott outright yesterday either get it up or don't bother, idk what's happening with this week's Showdown. DDD is doing Dy's segs so Dy will be up tomorrow, I apologize greatly to both brands for this shit but it won't be happening from now, that's a promise. |

Right. Well I'd like to apologize for two reasons in that case. 1. I handled the situation immaturely the night before RW and didn't tell anyone where I was going or what I was doing. 2. It was my responsibility to have given you an answer as Dynasty's writer and I didn't. At the time I was going through pressing family matters and some personal issues on top of that which only a small few knew about but as I said, as my writer I should have given you some sort of answer as to why I left as abruptly as I did. |

Just on this, I feel like it's the reason my cash in took so long to happen and is also why I'll never be one. Obviously, I could be totally wrong. |

| As a member of the Showdown roster, what's happening with the show?
I know of the drama that took place leading up to a quick summary getting posted, but I thought that there might at least be a card up for the following week (not this coming Saturday but the one after). Apparently this isn't the case.
Are we getting any information on the state of things or do we just have to wait it out and twiddle our thumbs for now? |

| Well MSM is next week, hence why there isn't any SD next week. A card was going to go up but by the time the summary was posted, it seemed rather unfair to have people promo for shows with a day or two notice, so Dy/SD this week is segs building up to MSM or whatever. It's a rather annoying but obviously unavoidable, things will be back to normal after this week. |
