Now, we've had some complaints about people doing too many promos, and some saying there aren't enough.

Also, at RITJ The Hurricane (Raziel) made a surprise interference in the IC Title match, helping moi as Billy Gunn defeat D'Lo Brown (allardini). So, next week we COULD have a grudge match between the two, but D'Lo is already in a tag title match AND it could possibly ruin a long-running feud.

So, I have decided to intitiate a new type of match for people to write-a promo. These promos need to be longer than most, and can contain anyone involved in the match. So, the promo for this week could be between Billy Gunn (Ant), D'Lo Brown (allardini) and The Hurricane (Raziel.) I would expect it to be D'Lo asking Hurricane why he interfered.

This means people who don't like writing matches can still have their input to the forums, and should help the feuds last longer. So this week, the person to write the first ever official promo will be...well, I don't know. I need a volunteer. If you want you can do one as well as a match (check the Update to see if you're writing one tomorrow or possibly tonight), or preferably people who aren't writing one this week (at the moment these include Tazz, Dead Wonder, Jetster, Kid Rock, Longy, Raziel and a few of the newer members of the forum) can do the promo.

Please volunteer in this topic. People who aren't writing matches get priority, and it will be a first come first serve basis.

Thanks for reading, Ant.

And I didn't mean longer in a talking sense, I meant more detail. You know, write how the crowd react, and it will have to be longer than most because there could be about 3 wrestlers wanting to make their opinion heard.
