Did you or didn't you?

What was the name of your character? How were matches decided?

Interesting for me, and maybe only me is how nearly 19 years ago my nearly undefeated character Bobby Brawler lost a PPV main event to HBK clone Tommy Styles.

I brought him back as masked wrestler "Broken". Very different from Matt Hardy except in premise.

Had him kidnap a rival's girlfriend and gave her an abortion after brainwashing her. WTF?

It's time to make TPWW MEAT again!

Unlike traditional grills which cook food from a single, direct heat source, the Pit Barrel® Cooker’s cylindrical shape and “Hook-and-Hang” method places the food in the center of the action, heating the meat from all sides at once, producing consistently great-tasting, perfectly cooked meat every time.

Also have some popcorn.

I did a bit of strat feds, email feds, and board feds over the year's I did it.

And there were various charcters. From Extreme Machine to two of his students: Runoff and R.W. and at the end I even had an R.W. student: Roshan Nocturne.

And they all had very different gimmicks: EM was a Taz/luchador gimmick. Very early, he was concept of late '90s cool. I would later joke that he inspired every indy mark of today.

Runoff was the biggest character, an MMA striker. He was based on Tajiri, but he is most easily described as Shibata before I knew who Shibata was (and since it was early 2000s, before Shibata really started wrestling.) Much of his gimmick involved him not speaking or saying very little in a trash talk heavy fed. Most of his insults were written on notebooks or chalkboards. And he was surprisingly successful.

R.W. had a nickname of "Hardcore Hick" and was a violent redneck who used shovels, but was well versed in traditional wrestling. The guy said Vato like Hogan said Brother. And he was Jake-like calm, and hid his accent for the most part with how he talked. When he was angry, he sounded like he was from Georga. He was by far my best character.

Roshan was a striker/aerialist that learned submission wrestling from R.W. She had a bit of a habit of letting her mouth get her in trouble, and was very judgmental. Her specialty was a thing invented by a friend of mine lampooning Deathmatch wrestlers called the Slopmatch.

Did the E-fed thing with WEW for a few years, the writing came quite easily to me in my teens but looking back I really dont know where the ideas came from.

Funnily enough I was looking back at the old boards the other night.

Yup, had a very pleasant efed experience with DVS back in the day (RIP PepsiMan)

Match outcomes were determined on strength of the RP, then simulated by the owners using RAW 2 on the original Xbox. They then uploaded the shows for us to watch. It was an awesome set up, until the inevitable passing of the site owner. After that, the site closed.

Played e-feds for many many years.....

Over the years, my main character was "Hardcore K"......

Started off at "Cyberslam" as "Kidman", but then I found out you didn't need to use an existing wrestler, so I had my guy "go crazy", change his name to "Hardcore K" and start talking to a chair and be all about "hardcore wrestling" since I thought Hardcore Holly/Al Snow hardcore feud was cool.

Eventually dropped the talking to a chair bit, and slowly started dropping being "hardcore".....

"Cyberslam" closed and I moved the character to "Wrassle.net".....

There my character would evolve into an egotistical heel, but like delusionally egotistical in that he legit thought everyone loved him and he was better than everyone else (they didn't and he wasn't). Pretty much had nothing to do with the name, and kind of just went by "HcK" mostly.....

Over the years became "less interested" in roleplaying "wrestling" and my storylines became increasingly about my character getting embroiled in various complicated plots/conspiracies where, despite still being a heel, he would end up saving the world from various villains.

Eventually killed him off in a huge angle that involved pretty much every member of his rogues gallery/supporting cast. Also time travel and a mutated duck clone army. Died sacrificing himself to save the world......

"Wrassle.net" shut down as well a year or two later...... Eventually I would "resurrect" my character at "Federation X"..... He thought heaven was total bushwa because everyone was "equal" and no one treated him like he was better than everyone...... so Nikola Tesla helped him bust out of heaven....... But then Nikola Tesla also had nefarious plot to steal cosmic powers to reshape reality...... but my character stopped him and saved all of reality, and was rewarded with being allowed to stay alive and not have to go back to heaven........

Nope didn't do that as a kid. I mean come on, the first two letters spell "EW".

But seriously, I don't recall being very much if at all into the WWF/wrestling in general in the '80s or growing up until my friend helped get me unto it by habitually watching RAW when I'd be visiting him because Mondays were his nights off and that was his way of relaxing. This was c. late 2001-early 2002ish, so I would've been in my early 20s by that point.

Oh fuck yeah I did e-feds. Loved it.

I was never really in the CAW feds or anything just because I'm not that clever and couldn't create my own. But WWF/WWE based ones I was all over them.

Didn't do the match-writing roleplaying, always did the promo-based ones. I had a riot doing them. They were so much fun to me. There was always goofs in those chat boxes but other than that I will always have great memories of my e-fedding days.

The very first time I saw an e-fed, it was just pick a wrestler and you got the Kenny's Krib South Park image as your guy and it was just random whoever wins. I was probably 12 years old. So thats almost 20 years ago. And then I probably was on and off for ten years after that.

5 years ago or so I tried it again, but the e-feds have kind of died out. At least the WWE style ones have.

Super fun times, super fun memories. Nerd alert.

I used to run mentioned e-fed.

I really enjoyed doing it, and the whole character development, but running one was just so much work for so little reward. Didn't help that the person who was meant to be helping me was incredibly unreliable.

However I was still the TPWWE Internet Champion for nine months, and no-one can take that off me dammit.

Never liked those ones where the people running it would write all the matches....

The ones I played you wrote your own matches during "card days". There was a "sim" aspect to the game, and sometimes your writing would get you points as well (and sometimes there would be no sim at all and it would be all judged on writing). Then when the winner was decided, that person got to post the end of the match.....

I also hated e-feds where it was "forbidden" to use other people's characters in your posts...... that was like half the fun.... interacting with other people and building off each other's posts.......

It was really collaborative, honestly. They'd give us their move sets, spot ideas, and I'd incorporate them into each match.

I always wrote them to look good, unless they "no showed". AOL efeds were pretty fun.

Brawler's finishing moves were a double arm impaler DDT called "Fatality" and a Burning Hammer onto a steel chair called the "Tour de Force".

He used to do a spot where he'd bring a hacksaw into the ring to open up a guy's forehead. I remember way too much about his move set to this day.

I don't remember the circumstances that lead to this, but I remember there was one angle where for whatever reason a bunch of the rasslers were on some island doing something.....

And one rassler dug a hole to set a trap for another rassler....... but then a whole bunch of rasslers, including myself, ended up falling into the hole and a whole bunch of us just spent like a week roleplaying as being stuck in a hole.

I remember the TPWW E-Fed in 2001 and 2002. I absolutely loved the wackiness of it at first. And we had such a large enough roster that once WWE did the brand split in real life, we followed suit by having a draft separating the fed into TPWW and Kapoutland brands which each had their own unique rosters, shows, etc. So the fed existed on both boards while still being a part of the same "universe".

As I recall though people started losing interest/quitting once it became obvious that role play quality didn't really mean anything in terms of who would actually be booked to win and stuff.

Trying to manage what essentially was two feds was a fucking nightmare.

The stuff about roleplays was true in the beginning when it was being run by Mr Marcus but I tried to move it away from that. The problem was, which was the same in every e-fed I've seen, that you'd make someone champion and then they'd lose interest and you're left having to book someone who isn't bleeding playing any more.

I like to think I did a pretty good job for a few months though!

I have fleeting memories of it. Remember trying to join Dale Newstead and SoTwisted aka Penner's stable right off the gate. And when it didn't work out I feuded with Penner for ages but got jobbed out left right and center as he was one of the writers and popular and I was like 13 years old and bitched/moaned.

I recall jobbing on a few PPVs but finally beating CSL or somebody for the Hardcore Title after I ripped off a largely brilliant 91 roleplay.

Pretty sure I got drafted to the Kapoutland brand.

I don't remember. I remember arguing with Penner a lot about things though so if I could have made him job, I probably would have.

Think in 2001 I tried to set up my own e-fed but it was too much work, so I joined another one.

They had the whole WWF vs. WCW angle going on, since that's what was hot at the time. I ended up joining as Jerry Lynn for some reason and bringing an ECW faction into the mix despite Lynn being a total non-factor in the invasion angle IRL.

Think I won the European Title or something.

This one time I had an absolute blood feud with a guy over $11 (with some other people eventually getting involved, each trying to lay claim to the $11), and it was one of the best feuds I ever had.......

I should also mention that my character was also "wealthy" by that time......

Reputation was definitely part of it. We had a lot of "big names" from the boards participating so they'd usually be booked near the top of the card on the strength of their regular posting even if their actual participation in the E-Fed was limited.

I remember the champion retaining a few PPVs doing bare bones, 2 paragraph role plays while his opponents would write practically a whole story.

Why as a kid? Ive done e-wrestling up to adulthood. Never was interested in roleplaying as a real wrestler, only original wrestler roleplaying feds. I started in Cyberslam which I think was one of the first big efedding sites that focused on original characters, then I had a stint in Wrassle.net but moved on to Ring-Wars.com which was more similar to Cyberslam. Unfortunately that site closed a couple years back and I haven't quite found anything compatible where you actually 1) WRESTLE and 2) Use original characters. Too many feds are either 100% no contact, or 100% off topic, or don't really let u use other people's characters which is the whole point of e-wrestling imo.


I never reached any fame in my 14 or so year career in e-fedding because I never had the time to really roleplay that much because I was always busy with school/college and by the time I became an "adult" with "no life", all the efeds pretty much went extinct.


Its a real shame, I miss the entire experience. Nothing quite like it.


I still have a number of friends I made during my roleplaying career that went beyond just the game we played. Not in real life, but regardless, its definitely been an important part of my life. To some people it was "hanging out after school" to me it was "writing matches and storylines after school".


Too bad people these days have no interest in actual roleplaying it seems.


Next topic on hand : "Where have all the good MUDs gone?"
Now feel like going on a whole tirade at how much worse the internet is these days then back in late 90's, early 00's.

My first character in Cyberslam was "Anaconda", a generic hoss. I think I held one of the titles in the "CBF" federation and in iHEL indy. Not sure what name I used on Wrassle, might've been the same. Then I had multiple characters on Ring Wars.

I was involved in some magazine-based e-fed where you had to send in money to get booked and stuff. Think I did it like one or two months and then realized it was dumb.
