I wanted to try something a little different here.
This is to post about your fed. Not results necessarily. This is to talk about your fed in a more general way. Maybe some of the big happenings. Your booking plans for the future. If you don't post your fed or read feds this will hopefully be a thread to get a quick idea what other people are doing or planning. I guess we could also talk some general booking philosophy in here.

I started kind of an offshoot to my NWA called Midwest Championship Wrestling. It's a place for those mid range guys to get top of the card positions and a bulk of the limelight. My goal is for Tommy Rich and Tony Atlas to be my top faces.

Tommy Rich won my initial tournament. And the way Tony Atlas has played so far. I think Tommy Rich will be my top face that's going to trade the belt back and forth with the heels while Atlas is going to be more of that gatekeeper no. 2 or 3 face. I have Magnum TA hanging around right now but I'm unsure if I want to keep him around. If I do, I think he'll be my no. 2 face.
The heel side is a little more unsure. Masked Superstar, Kevin Sullivan and Ivan Koloff I'm guessing will be my top heels. I'm not as set on the heel side of things as I am with the faces though.
I realized with this fed that I don't have the time to run it like I'd like. So I'm doing the television as a non-squash format. It's going to retain that old school feel but it's going to be feature level matches ever week. I'm hoping a 5 match show can keep it going. The real challenge is going to be not exploding the roster to 50 guys like I tend to. My goal is to just cycle guys like I was last year with my NWA fed.

I got a card of my North American fed played tonight. Just trying to get myself back into holding shows by not really detailing every match in my writeup. Maybe try noting angles and such and write up more of the main events or good matches.
I merged my USWA with Mexico and Puerto Rico feds to create the NAWA. Dallas Page is the new North American champ, beating the Mountie. Looks like Rick Rude is going to get the next title shot.
I had Ted DiBiase back as the Million $ Man and his cohorts Don Muraco & Bob Roop are the N.A. tag team champions. When Andre was the World champ, I had DiBiase come out and announce he was the manager of the champ. After Andre lost the title to Fred Blassie, he then beat DiBiase, who is now going to Japan.

Fantastic thread maddog! Currently my Maple Leaf Legends of Wrestling fed has some big bouts/feuds happening. The Mountie currently holds the Canadian Heavyweight Championship and leads a French stable called The Distinct Society. Members include The Vachons, Kurrgan and of course Jimmy Hart by his side. No one has been able to get the belt off of Mountie and having back up to save his hide helps AND makes the fans hate him even more. Currently my build up is to have him face Fit Finlay who is just coming into the territory. The Vachon's hold the Canadian Tag Titles and have the Tolos Brothers nipping at their heels but they just seem to miss the victory when the belts are on the line. That darn Jimmy Hart again! I have a couple big heated feuds. Killer Kowalski and Freddie Blassie has just spilled over into bedlam. Last match I had was a six-man match with Kowalski and The Killer Bees vs. Blassie and The Iron Sheik & Volkoff. The bout was off the hook helped to build up to that big Supercard Steel Cage match. Canadian TV Champion Bruiser Brody is hurting guys left and right and sidelining them until "The Young Stallion" Jim Powers stepped into the ring with him. He attempted to injure Powers but he is back and looking for revenge and to take the title. My big Stable vs. Stable battle is The Kings of Memphis: Bill Dundee, Bobby Shane, Wolfie D and J.C. Ice vs. The Memphis Mafia: Tommy "Wildfire" Rich and "Hot Stuff" Eddie Gilbert and their newest acquisitions Randy Savage, Lanny Poffo managed by their father Angelo Poffo. It is a Memphis war that has spilled onto Canadian soil and it is wicked! I am thinking once my Legends Madness set shows up I will use the Leaping Lanny card instead and Doug Gilbert will show up at some point and either join his brother or turn on him and join The Kings of Memphis. I will see how it plays out. And the last little preview write up I did for my Ring of Honor fed was the following: "Can ROH World Champion: Kevin Steen be stopped? Currently Steen's lack of respect for "The Code" of Ring of Honor has seen many who hold it in very high regard step forward in an attempt to bring a glint of shine back to the title. A title, that has since been tarnished by the actions of "Wrestling's Worst Nightmare". But all who have tried have failed, some even have been sidelined from in ring action!
However, one Legend out of ROH's past has stepped forward into the light and has picked up the gauntlet to challenge Kevin Steen. "The Forgotten Legend" Jerry Lynn will make his return and challenge Steen at the FINAL BATTLE PPV! Will Jerry Lynn be just another victim amidst the body count of Steen? Is Lynn Ring of Honor's last hope or is there another just waiting for the right time to strike?
Also ROH World Tag Team Champions: The American Wolves have new challengers to their titles. Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly make up the team known as reDragon and they are looking to take the tag gold for themselves. Do reDragon have what it takes to finally topple the 365 day reign of this savage alpha team?
ROH World Television Champion: "Unbreakable" Michael Elgin has his work cut out for him as "The Sicilian Psychopath" Tommaso Ciampa has his sights set on taking the title. On two other occasions Ciampa has had near fall victories and Elgin was almost unable to recoup from both epic confrontations. Will the third attempt be the charm?"

In my NXT fed. I know some of you read it and this might be spoilers. But I'm thinking about bringing Mike Quackenbush back as a heel and having him join BLKout.

Only one card away in my International Championship Wrestling fed is Halloween Havoc. The goings on: The Road Warriors won the Crockett Cup tournament and are set for a title match against the Tolos Brothers. That will be on the next Impact show as the LOD are teaming with Bruiser Brody and the Midnight Express to face the Canadian Maffia of the Tolos Brothers, Killer Kowalski, The Mountie and Angelo Mosca in War Games!!!
Also at Halloween Havoc: Bobo Brazil vs. The Sheik in the Cage of Death. An 8-man King of the Deathmatch Tournament.
I just reshuffled the rosters a little bit, moving guys around, taking some out, deciding where to use the new LOW 12 wrestlers. Haven't ordered Legends Madness yet.

Road Warriors should run over the Tolos Brothers. Will that be a big pop moment in your fed?

In my latest UWFI show, Thesz and Frank Gotch advanced to the finals of my title tournament. That was my most desired final but the one thing that didn't happen in the tournament was Hack advancing to the second round to face Gotch. Maybe if Hack picks up another win or two and Gotch wins the tournament, we'll get a third match with them for the world title.

Haven't held them since Jan. 28 (lost to Inoki & Rikidozan), game time, and the title match is on Oct. 21 before Halloween Havoc. In fact haven't had a title shot since losing the belts.

I'd have to look but I don't think I've ever gotten the final I've wanted in any size tournament.

I was going to start a Chikara fed but just haven't had the time so I have been pulling guys in from the Chikara roster to fill spots in my FCCW fed and my ROH fed when needed. If they do well or begin a feud then they stick around for a bit.

Needless to say, I'm very glad this panned out the way I wanted. Gotch/Thesz is a massive match and for that to crown my first champion is fitting, IMO.

They had an epic match for me about 2 years ago. Just a back and forth battle. I think it ended up being my 2012 MOTY runner up. The Destroyer and William Muldoon got the honor that year.
