I ran my 30th session of Gauntlet League Wrestling last Wednesday. It’s a story that has changed and grown over three seasons. This most recent started with a three session “road show” prologue before bringing the promotion back to Gauntlet City. This coming week will be the finale of 11 sessions, our big PPV the imaginatively named Throw Down 2018. It’s been an interesting ride with this being the longest continuous series I’ve run and the one with the most returning wrestlers, several there for nearly all the sessions.

I also got a Gauntleteer to do logo for the promotion which we’ve put on t-shirts. If you’re interested in WWW AP, I have the full playlist link below– the most recent stuff is 29 on the list.

A supporter of the game (and member of the Season One roster!) has launched a Kickstarter for a game of their own – it’s a slasher/horror “hard R” card game, which looks pretty gross (in a good way) if you’re into that kinda thing.

It’s not for me personally, but in the name of solidarity I wanted to drop a link in case you slasher fans out there want to check it out!

I have to admit, i’ve really been digging playing longer series of games with the same wrestler.

I’ve played in 10 sessions now in Lowell’s Gauntlet league wrestling and it’s been great to see how the story arch of the character moves on and how the change of gimmick echoes that.

the wrestler started off as an antihero who came into the league as the masked vigilantee “Anon” fighting the influence of the Leagues on screen owner, the Dastarld Jeremy Bleakwood.

She unmasked herself during the PPV, revealing that she was Jeremy’s Long lost sister, the villainous Clarabelle bleakwood, who had been tricking people into giving up their identities to power her dark magic.

Coming into Season 2 she shifted to the Ace playbook and proceeded to fued with the son of her fathers former Tag team partner leading into a match where both the parents of the wrestlers where in the audience.

Things went south for her when, as a result of a Hard move by Creative, her father had a shoot heart attack during the match, causing her to break character to see to his welfare.

With her father in hospital and with mounting medical fees, she was desperate for additional money to pay the hospital, leading to her moonlighting in her old profession, that of an MMA fighter, taking on the Celebrity Advanced role.

But all is not going well as the injuries sustained during the shoot fights she has done meaning she turned to painkillers to get through matches, shifting gimmick to The Wasted.

Now back in Gauntlet league once again, she promptly performed a face turn, saving her erstwhile enemy from a vicious beating. Announcing that her father is dying and he had regrets about things he has done to his former partner, she, as a dutiful daughter, has formed a tag team with the former target of her fued.

It will be interesting to see where this goes in the three remaining sessions but what i can say so far is phew, what a ride.

I stumbled across this really good game that I know at least a few of you in here would be excited to check out – (hopefully it’s ok to post this here…I’m in no way affiliated with this game just think theres a lot of overlap in who would like it and could really help with inspiration for your sessions, or even just ideas for NPCs!)

Try your hand as a wrestling Booker and Promoter in direct competition with up to 3 friends. Make the most money, put on the best matches, and earn the most reputation to be crowned the top promotion!

The kickstarter just ended for this game, but it will be out for retail soon. The nice thing is there is both a Print and Play version (what I did) and a Steam Version to play on your Computer. Both are completely free.

It occurred to me tonight I’d really like a set of cards with the wrestling moves illustrations on them. Take the ones from the book, add more and give us a set of flash cards for inspiring descriptions, learning move names, and randomizing sequences for NPWs. I know we have the nice ref sheet, but lately I’ve been digging cards as a rpg tool. I just got my copy of Operators which uses cards for describing combat maneuvers and that got me thinking about this.

What gimmick would y’all use for a Johnny Gargano/NXT Sami Zayn white meat babyface that the crowd loves?

So, I just started a season with 3 players, and I’m wondering, how exactly does one override the creative booking in the fight by using the Break Keyfabe move? Do I roll for it, can it botch, or do I win automatically by saying it?
