If you don't want to do them, then me and Cheese will be willing to.
And does anyone else want to write a match???

Well actually, on TV interviews, the WWF Superstars always admit that it's fake. They pretend it's real on the actual program, but outside it then admit that it's fake. Just like any other programme.

I like Nintendo but I'm not so sure about Sony's PSone it looks good but plays not as well as the N64!!
Just because its not real doesn't make it pants. If so, then most of the stuff on TV is pants.
And, Edgy, I suppose you don't like the simpsons because its not real?

Seemingly, you don't know what you're talking about, because you haven't watched it.
Wrestlers are highly talented athletes (one of them is an actual Olympic Gold Medal winner), and they put their bodies on the line for our entertainment.
So you're saying that it's easy to jump onto someone 30ft below who is lying on a stack of tables, without injuring yourself or the other man??
Surely writing wrestling stories is no different from normal stories. I like writing, and I've enjoyed writing the matches. It's also nice to do because it includes all of us from the FOG. It's just a bit of fun between all of us in the middle of all the gaming arguments.
There we go. I've finished with my rant.
