I ran this at Camp Nerdly and everyone seemed to have a good time, some good feedback I got was:
* make sure to stress how mechanically important Momentum, Heat, and Audience can be
* have a print out of the wrestling move pictures
Edit:
The Wrestlers:
Long Arm: The Gatekeeper played by Mark Causey
Baba Yaga: The Monster; played by Kelley Vanda
Animal: The Hardcore played by Richard Rogers
Tractor: The Jobber played by William Nichols
El Chupacabra: The High-Flyer played by Paul Edson
Booster Rocket: The Veteran played by E.T. Smith
Some Highlights: Animal was scheduled to wrestler Tractor after Tractors return from an Injury, Animal not even knowing who Tractor was demanded a match with Baba Yaga in addition.
Tractor vs Animal: Tractor tried to steal the victory and the fans loved it! In the end, Animal won the match breaking kayfabe right back.
Another insanely fun moment came during the match between Baba Yaga and Animal, Baba using her monster move that lets her have a specialty match, made the ring a Russian winter match, where the mat was replaced with ‘ice’, and at one point Baba squatted over animal and shouted “Baba Yaga has given birth to a new daughter!” then slid Animal across the ring as the fans ate it up.
Early on, El Chupacabra botched a promo, so right before his scheduled title match with Booster Rocket, creative came to him and told him the HARD move; Turn face during this match, or you’re going to become the new Tractor. The look on Pauls face was priceless.
He totally turned face, and the Veteran, who had been trying to hold the High-flyer back, let him win clean, only for Tractor to try and run out to stop iit all! But he botched that roll, and didn’t have the momentum, so Long Arm just knocked him down on the way to the ring.
A fun time and while we started with 4 heels and 2 faces, we ended with 4 faces and 2 heels!

I think that the Sasha Banks/Becky Lynch match from UNSTOPPABLE last night may be (a) my favorite women’s match I’ve ever seen and (b) the best NXT match I’ve seen since Zayn/Neville (and tied with it in terms of emotional content, tho maybe second-place on technical execution) and (c) the second-best WWE match of 2015 (behind Rollins/Cena/Lesnar triple threat at Fastlane).
I’m on record as just not really clicking with Lynch but last night she finally won me over, not with her new steampunk-ish look, but with her savage ring work. This match was brutal in a really emotional way that grew out of the feud these two women have had and made total sense even though neither of them is particularly physically imposing.
And the Boss is my favorite wrestler, full stop, so. She brought her A-game. It was amazing.
Look it up if you didn’t watch it!
Anyone going to see Progress in the UK this weekend?

So I came to the realization that I wasn’t sick of John Cena. I was sick of seeing John Cena with the same few guys week in and week out. The US Title challenges are one of my favorite parts of RAW now.
