Seriously, it's posted.

 

[thegr817deuce]

I've tried to reply 3 times now, Dave. The thread apparently hates me. I refuse to type all that out again. Good show

 

[LQJT86C]

I LOST?!!!! F*ck this sh*t, I quit!

 

[LQJT86C]

Oops, wait, I wasn't on this card. False alarm.

 

[TSiegel]

**** that, you can't take that back.

 

[User Poets]

Wrestler of the Night: Tie - Brown/Otaku. Getting the wins they did over the opponents they did was huge - and they've quickly established themselves as the team to beat and possibly the favorites going into Wrestleverse

Match of the Night: Brown/Otake vs. VIAGRA. Same reasons as above, adding in the fact that Flyer and Davis have been a team for sixteen to thirty years and should have had the advantage. Michael Brown and Otaku just work really well together.

Best Face: Dan Ryan, scooping the heat.

Best Heel: Stalker, continuing his crusade.

Best Segment:Not an official segment, but I thought the post-Main was priceless.

Anything that didn't work: Not really, it was a setup for Wrestleverse so everything did a good job feeding into the big show.

Overall Thoughts: Layne Winters lost? WHOO!

 

[Stalker]

Wrestler of the Night: Impulse

Match of the Night: Impulse vs. Dopesmoker with Otaku/Brown's tag match a close second.

Best Face: Anarky

Best Heel: Copycat

Best Segment: Not really any segments to choose from.

Anything that didn't work: "DT: Folks, we are about to find out who will challenge Stalker and Steven Shane for the EPW Tag Team Titles at Wrestleverse IV!" Isn't it Wrestleverse 3? Or maybe i'm wrong I dunno.

Overall Thoughts: Great card. Dan Ryan coming back to announce a mystery guest ref for the main at the PPV is very interesting. Personally for me I am hoping for some nice surprises at Wrestleverse.. we could definitely go for a good amount of segments at the ppv. Other then that can't wait!

It's definitely Wrestleverse IV.

 

[Stalker]

Oops I failed. Well either way Wrestleverse shall be amazing.

 

[LQJT86C]

Wrestleverse III? Layne Winters lost then too! I DOUBLE QUIT!

 

[Ford]

I (stupidly) offered to write Katz an NFW match, so my feedback will be later. But I thoroughly enjoyed this card. Just figured I should say that before this thread gets stale and I resurrect it.

 

[RStrawsma]

Wrestler of the Night: I felt with a shot at the Intercontinental Title earned in just his fourth appearance, Impulse gained the most through his victory. If there were Wrestlers of the Night, I'd give this to Karl "The Dragon" Brown and Otaku for solid wins over tough teams in the tag team tournament.

Match of the Night: All of the matches were pretty good. The tag team main event was a fitting conclusion to the action, with all of the federation's major players. Dan Ryan's return at the end was the moment of the night.

Best Face: Karl Brown and Otaku

Best Heel: Stalker

Best Segment: Stalker's in-ring mic spot was probably the one seg that furthered an ongoing storyline for a bit.

Anything that didn't work: YEAH, NO STRAWSMA MATCHES!! WHAT THE **** IS THAT BULL****, MAN?!

...

...okay, no, but seriously...

Kenny Lombardo's brief appearance on the show seemed hasty and confusing. We've already got one mystery man stalking the Stalker and another one who's going to be the special guest referee in the title match. There's at least some kind of hint toward the identity of those two: the bounty hunter is connected to Caitlyn, and Dan Ryan says the mystery ref knows Copycat well and owes him a favor. There's practically NO indication of who the mystery person is in this segment; after Kenny finally gets to him, he just tells him to get the hell out. Was it necessary to even include Kenny in that case, or could the mystery person just took control of the EmpireTron and briefly addressed the crowd at large? This segment just didn't work for me.

Overall Thoughts: Shaping out to be a pretty awesome Pay Per View. There could probably be some more variety in segments (in other words, more participation in angles and seg writing -- not to point fingers, because I'm probably just as guilty as anyone), but as long as the matches are continued to be written this well, I don't really have much to complain about. Good job to everyone involved.

Wrestler of the Night: Otaku, runner up Karl Brown/Impulse. While both Impulse/Brown had great showings and moved forward, I thought Otaku gained the most simply by being the guy who was in a match that really made you pull for him and he was part of the decisive moment in their victory.

Match of the Night: Otaku/Brown vs. Team VIAGRA: Very well-written match with very, very good flow. I thought of all the matches I read, it was the one I felt most interested in (even though I had no vested interest), and I found myself rooting for Otaku to get to his man, which is exactly how you want a face to be written. I thought everyone came out looking really good and I hope everyone participating in the match felt their characters were done justice.

Face of the Night: Same as above. Otaku with a slight nod over Brown/Impulse, who were both very good.

Heel of the Night: Copycat or Stalker. I thought Copycat's mind games were good, but the cowardly "run away from Dan Ryan before he gets his comeuppance" gave him a slight edge. Stalker was good as always.

Moment of the Night: Dan Ryan comes back? Otaku's ninja assault at the end of the final? Impulse's victory? Stalker's segment? The WTF moment in the Main when the final bell rang? Lot of good moments, not one stood out to me.

What didn't work: Absolutely agree with Strawsma on this one. The Kenny Lombardo segment as a standalone really did nothing to drive forward the storyline other than to say, "Some mystery person is doing something." If there aren't any clues or advancement of storyline, I'm not entirely sure what the purpose of the segment is.

Best Line: DT: And this man could not be more yin to Stalker’s yang.

MN: Watch your mouth, Thomas! This is a family show!

Overall Thoughts: Very good card which will lead well to the PPV. I'm pretty excited to see some of these storylines resolve. Except for the Stalker/Caitlyn thing, which will probably go on for at least six more months, haha. But seriously. I think it's going well and everybody did a good job this hard and EPW is once again firing on all cylinders heading into a PPV.

Wrestler of the Night: Impulse. He's making a huge impact, it's going to be interesting to see where he goes at Wrestleverse and beyond

Match of the Night: Team V.I.A.G.R.A vs Brown/Otaku. It was really good to see an old-school tag match with a face-in-peril that well written.

Best Face: For his face-in-peril work, Otaku. I like how he's coming together now

Best Heel: Copycat. Nice bit of heel work at the end of the show, it added an interesting twist on Cat.

Best Segment: Not really a segment per se, but the Dan Ryan involvement to close the show was exceptional.

Anything that didn't work: I've got to agree, the Kenny Lombardo bit had me scratching my head, for the same reasons already given. I hope it leads into something, though. That's what I'm guessing

Overall Thoughts: A good card going into Wrestleverse. It's set things up well, so let's see where it goes from here

 

[GARTHIsTheLaw]

Wrestler of the Night: Have to go with Impulse here. He's already had some big moments in his EPW career prior to this point, but I feel like the decisive victory over Dopesmoker and the guaranteed Intercontinental Title shot going into Wrestleverse IV really underline what he's done so far and give a clear picture of what he's capable of.

Match of the Night: Impulse vs. Dopesmoker, for the reasons stated above. And though I'm trying not to mention Copycat's match here as I can't be trusted to be unbiased about it, I should take this moment to give kudos to whoever wrote the main event for doing a good job of capturing Copycat's approach to it.

Best Face: Probably Impulse again, though I'm inclined to think Dan Ryan's appearance at the end would have garnered a colossal pop as well.

Best Heel: Stalker always brings the heelishness, especially in his mic spot.

Best Segment: Well, I'm naturally biased toward Dan Ryan's show-ender, but putting my biases aside, I have to be honest -- I dug the between-matches throwaway segment between Otaku and Karl Brown. Stalker's stuff was probably better for furthering storylines, but the Otaku-Brown segment brought the funny, and I always appreciate that.

Anything that didn't work: I hope the mystery man who sent in the short segment with Kenny Lombardo understands that we're not all ripping on him because we think he did a bad job, it's just that the rest of the show flowed together so well and his bit seemed a little out of place. But yeah, that.

Overall Thoughts: A good go-home show for the forthcoming Wrestleverse IV pay-per-view. The problem you sometimes run into with FW is that because of the lengthy RP and matchwriting periods, pay-per-view lineups sometimes seem thrown together on the very last card before the PPV. And that's fine as far as the FW format goes, but it's one of those areas where you see a disconnect between the way we do things and the way real-life promotions do things. So while a lot of what I expect to see on the Wrestleverse card was officially set tonight -- Intercontinental, Television and Tag Team titles -- none of it seemed thrown together. It was almost a seamless transition into the PPV, and I like to think that if I were a viewer, I'd be more than willing to fork over my $30 or $35 or $50 or whatever the hell it is companies charge these days.
