Just so everyone knows, seeing as Chris Jericho is an NPC feel free to use the Highlight Reel as a set for setting up a match. (Like how I did on Delerium) It doesn't have to be against or with Jericho it can be like the "Y2J gets to the bottom of the story" kind of a thing where someone comes out to air a grevence.
So go nuts with this.

Sounds like a good idea. The Highlight Reel will be good to start some much needed feuds around here.

That brings up something I've been meaning to talk to you about. What's with Jericho and Matt Hardy, anyhow? Jericho and Matt are still employed by WWE. Jericho is "fired" right now, but trust me--he's still getting paychecks every other week like everybody else. Matt isn't even "fired" right now, he's just kinda There. Now, the reason I have a problem with this, but still feel comfortable using, say, Raven, is because Raven is with TNA, and TNA still allows 'anybody' who works for them to work for any indy promotion that doesn't sell DVDs nationally in stores (At least, I believe that's the deal.), and Raven in particular is well known for still doing Indy shows. WWE, on the other hand, doesn't do that with Anybody else--except with ROH, because they and WWE have a very good working relationship. I mean, hell, why do you think Matt went 'there' when he was "fired" instead of TNA? Plus, it's always been my 'personal' rule that nobody from TNA can show up while they have a title in TNA. The only reason I can really think of for bringing Jericho and Matt in is to help bolster the Juniourweight division with some supporting NPCs. But in the very same week (the same show, I even think) that you brought them in, you fired EHDP. EHDP is a very versatile and useable Juniour who has a strong history with the fed, and at almost all times throughout the history of the fed has been used as an NPC. He may have been created and used by Hefe, but he was used most often, I think, by Sephiru. That, and we know that Mistress Jessica 'and' another new female CAW of my own will be coming into the fed soon. So of course, they would bolster the Juniour division as well--thusly, negating the only real purpose (that I can see) of Jericho and Matt. It's basically just an overuse of real wrestlers in the fed rather than the originals of MWA. And really, that's what the fed is about--the original CAWs. The real life wrestlers have always been used only as a method to put people over easily, and rarely show up for more than a few weeks--mostly because MWA 'tries' to work within the realms of reality rather than extreme fantasy. I mean, there's other eFeds out there that do things like have WWE go bankrupt and then people from WCW come in and join whatever random fed has been made from the ashes. Now I ask you, is 'that' realistic? 'Hell' no. It isn't. That's why MWA is an indy fed--we can work with a little leeway of being, basically, an almost totally unknown fed. We only lightly bend the rules of reality where we can--where it can be believable. Kenta Kobashi coming in and working a total of five matches (one of which was in Japan anyway) and Homicide being around for all of two or three weeks, as well as Raven working frequently on the same coast as TNA is all believable and 'possible.' Jericho and Matt Hardy coming in to be used on semi-frequent basises are Not, because again, they're both still employed by WWE and stuff. And with LIFTOR and some other guys' semi-frequent shots at WWE, I don't think they'd be too happy with MWA to share the workers. Wow, this turned out to be really angry and stuff, and makes me sound like I don't like the job you're doing of running things. I'll go ahead and say that I do like most of the stuff you do for the fed. You're a good roleplayer, and thus far everything else is running great. Hell, you're doing a better job running it than I ever could. It's just that I've had an issue with this and it's never really come up, yeah. So yeah. I don't really like the use of Jericho or Matt on a regular basis. But y'know, that's just 'my' opinion. If everybody 'else' around here is cool with it and wants to keep doing it, then by all means, ignore me and move on. *misses EHDP.*

Well first of all to explain things, going on kayfabe Jericho is free agent until he starts working again. And we can say when Matt was fired he never went back to WWE.
I don't mind losing Matt but for the time being keeping Jericho would be helpful as discussed above.
EHDP can always be re-hired by Traci.

Send EHDP to CPW for training, then bring him back in? ^^; Just an idea, I've thought about this one. This is the sort of thing that the training league could be useful for. Tank too, could be someone we could send to C-P-Dub.

Alright, cool. I can deal with Jericho--I'm sorta warming up to the idea of him since he's actually supposed to be fired right now and stuff. I can believe that. Matt, though, I've got issues with. Mostly because I don't really like him right now since he's not on RAW, and I lack SD. I felt the same way about other such guys like Batista and Christian when they went to SD. But also because bringing in all these other WWE stars or former stars just seems to be stealing away the spotlight from established MWA talent.
I mean, it's like with TNA. TNA's got guys like Raven and Styles and Abyss and Monty Brown who have been pushing for a real main event spot and some real exposure since, like, 2002. And what goes and happens to them? Christian and Sting do. Christian and Sting, from two other feds, basically come in and steal away the main event spot from everybody else. It's Bad, and it just makes TNA look like they're feeding off other stuff rather than their own talent. Which is what makes MWA look bad by using a lot of WWE-type talent.
But yeah. Like I said, I can handle Jericho, since he's good. Matt, though, I think he has to go.

Just heard the other day that Chris Jericho is not actually under contract with WWE anymore. He's doing his music thing in reality. So therefor he's available.
Also, Matt Hardy is gone now.
