Firstly, I want to thank Dave for picking up and writing the two dark matches.
Secondly, I want to thank Nick, Spiro, Kev, OD, Benny and Jeremy for their contributions to the show.
And lastly, I want to thank everyone who took the time out to get up a roleplay or two.
So, what did you guys think?

Damn you, Karma! We almost had all face champs.
I'm surprised I won actually. VERY. I like to thank Nick for a great story we had here and it looks like it will continue again.
Congrats to all the winners. Really great show.

One thing that I love about FGA cards is all of the psychology that is involved in all of the matches. I think you have a great handle on the rosters personalities and strengths/weaknesses.
My favorite parts of the show... Karma trying to leave with the belt after going up 1-0. Classic Karma. Grayson's line about Bond might be a drunk but he can wrestle a bit. That literally had me laughing out loud.
The vignette leading up the the main event was fantastic. Really had me pumped to read it. I got the feeling reading the main event was a David V Goliath story. I think that Q had become such an unstoppable monster that you almost find yourself rooting for his opponents week in and week out. I was surprised by Sands victory, not really from an rp standpoint, but it had kinda gotten to the point where you were just waiting for Q to be Q and do it again every time you read one of his matches.
December Final Frontier has already got me pumped with the Dom Harter promo. I sense a three way for that title. That should be fun. When Q and Harter had their previous matches I was so new I didn't really understand the magnitude of it. Now that I've been around for a bit, it really has the big fight aura surrounding it. That should only improve even more with the ascension of Sands.
All in all fantastic show, and I didn't even get to touch on the excellent tag division that still shaping up with B&B, Shoot Kings, and the Mario's. I also think that Malcolm and Bob will have a lot to say concerning those titles moving forward. Should be getting exciting.

I think I might be the anti-Spiro. I think I was shocked by every outcome on the card. Incredible show. Great job, Terr, and everyone else. Congrats to all the new champs.
Holy shit.

I have to admit, I'm surprised I lost. I was confident in my RP. Congrats to Spiro and Jerry.
To the handler of Karma: I think it's slightly overdue. I have been a big fan of you since you arrived and have told Terr to give you a push before. Glad to see you take advantage of it.

No hyperbole, but that might have been FGA's best supershow. It's amazing how each supershow (or each year's worth of supershows) just build off of each other and get better and better. No plateu's here and that's a testament to the talent on this roster and Terry.
I thought the main event could have gone either way.
I've been a fan of Karma's from the get go, so his win was nice to see. Though I'm sure Bondo will still be in contention for something. He's too good.
It was nice seeing The Usual Suspects be the team that ultimately toppled The Murder, especially after all the attacks and the Steel cage loss. Congrats, Jerry.
The title matches were great. But there was solid undercard matches, too.
Would read again.

I definitely enjoyed this.
Being the new guy on the block, I have to say I really enjoy this format. Gives it that independent promotion sort of authenticity and makes the show super-easy to read.
From an entirely selfish and personal standpoint: Nate's debut was pitch-perfect, and pretty much exactly what I envisioned. He got his ass handed to him like any rookie should, showed some promise, and got the out-of-nowhere win on a flash cradle. Perfect. Makes me even more glad I signed on.
As for the rest of the show, I thought it was pretty high quality all the way through. The title matches in particular I felt could have gone either way, so that always adds a sense of suspense to reading the results. I'd have to say the Pride Championship match was my favorite of the night, and I'm really interested to see where a lot of the losers (Chris Q and the Murder in particular) go from here.
Really good stuff brosephs and brosephines.

Respect was definitely earned by everyone involved in the show. My favorite match from a match writing standpoint was the Pride Championship match. My favorite from a storyline standpoint is a tie between the Tag Team Championship match and the FGA Heavyweight Championship match. Scale is probably tipped towards the FGA title match though due to Sean Sands many upsets. The vignettes leading up to the match were just fantastic and great writing by both Nick and Spiro for those. Definitely agreeing with the David vs. Goliath comparison Jerry made.
For me:
Star of the Night: Sean Sands Match of the Night: Pride Championship Match Who to Watch: Jimmy Page (The vignettes for the FGA title match really make the character look like the next big thing. Very nice touch.) Upset of the Night: So many to choose from, but it has to be the Usual Suspects from an IC perspective. Great show Terry. Great work to everyone who wrote up a segment. And congrats to the winners.
