ACW now has more evil alter-egos than the puroresu wrestling scene.

My 2 cents, I know all about Exemplar. Mark was running that over a year ago and I thought it was good then, I also think it's good now. At the time, it was right up there with who is Black and White, The Revolutionary, etc.
With my blessings, Steele used elements of my former storyline to do a transformation himself. It goes without saying that I approve here.
Chef had told me of the Doomtrain thing long before and I also approve. I was hoping that he would actually change his name permanently to this when he turned to heel. It would make much sense.
Anyway, I can see your critisims Freeman, but here is what I see. I see three guys trying to write something entertaining in a sea of promos, trying to make theirs stand out above the rest. IMO, "I'm a wrestler, that's just what I am" does not translate well in a paper/pen (or I guess word processor in this case) wrestling federation. Props to these guys for taking a chance instead of copying what you see on TV. Proof of this is in characters such as Yoko Satoshi and Atomic Kitsune. Both are extremely entertaining and have somewhat abnormal side stories. That's what makes them "fun."

But, Steele and Train (XS3 too, but not as much) don't need anything to stand out from the sea of promos, because their characters do so anyways <_<

Thanks for explaining it better than I could have, Teeks.
And apologies to Freeman if I came off sounding confrontational. Blame the Irish in me. >_>
