Some late night...
Freeman Feedback
Well we are almost at Ragnarok! Which is in February. Which is weird. Anyways, it is late. I therefore may not be giving the best feedback ever this week so yeah. Deal with it <_<
Just Who’s the Bad Guy? (Thunderkiss) – The first thing that strikes out to me is that TK said “I know that you’re reading this, Steve.” Er…reading this? Unless Senator has the show transcribed to him or something >_>. Anyways though, I still think TK has the XS3-factor going on. That is, trying to be a sympathetic face when he should be a heel. And I still don’t like that. Since this seemed very much like a face promo, when it seems to me again that SLA should be the heel team. Whatever. It was well written though, but all of TK’s stuff is.
Ghee Willickers (Buddy Ghee) – Very short segment,
but you know…I could see the Buddy Ghee character working well as a midcard heel. I feel like after some time comes by and you get the hang of things a bit more, and get involved with a feud, then you could have some really nice segments going on. I didn’t love the whole part about making fun of the Calvin name that much, but in general I thought it was pretty decent. I see potential.
Manny Sykes! Phenomenal’s Most Wanted (CP/Senator) – Im not quite sure if the idea of Senator busting into a warehouse with an M4 Carbine is supposed to be funny or serious, but I really can’t see it <_< That’s why I don’t like storylines like these. They always come off so over the top. This…I dunno. I’ve liked some parts of it but it seems to have dragged on too long and unless CP is directly mentioning it in a segment he doesn’t seem to be thinking about it very often. I dunno. I don’t love the angle. That’s all.
Nostalgia (Michael Smart) – I laughed at the lava lamp and the rubik’s cube. But I think Michael smart is doing it wrong. I’m pretty sure you don’t solve it by side, because if you do you can’t finish it. I think you have to do it by corner or something <_<. Not that I know how to do it but I read how once online >_>. SO MICHAEL SMART IS FIGHTING A LOSING BATTLE. Anyway pretty good segment, but for a man about to be in a world title match, Id like Smart to have some more involvement with his opponents at Ragnarok.
Post Match Segment (Panther) – Panther needs to have something going on. I guess Flamingo sorta disappeared. That’s very unfortunate for Panther, but it was obvious here IMO that Panther doesn’t have that much to do. The segment wasn’t bad or anything but as I said Panther needs a feud or something.
Here We Go Again (Thunderkiss) – Oh hardy har har, Thunderkiss <_<. Anyways, pretty good promo when he was talking about the guys in the match with him. Those kinds of segments always work well and work to hype things up. But I wish he hadn’t just acted like the other three guys didn’t exist. Yeah, I know especially VorteX and Jefferson have disappeared, but Smart has been writing, and even so, I feel like in “kayfabe” they should still be mentioned, rather than just acting like they’re nothing. Though it is sad how those two dropped out because had they stayed in this feud would have been awesome.
Any Publicity is Good Publicity. (Dave Shadow) – I said that this week I would blast Dave because I usually only have good things to say about him. So now I will. WOW DAVE. YOU SUCK. THIS PROMO SUCKED. IT WAS BORING. WHAT WAS THE FRICKIN POINT? WOW DAVE. YOU’RE THE WORST WRITER EVER, AND MR. CHILD WAS A STUPID GENERIC CLICHÉ CHARACTER, AND THE JOKES WERENT FUNNY AND IT WAS BORING. There. Now nobody can accuse me of being a Shadow mark. In all seriousness though, it did lead to the possibility of an interesting story, as I would assume that something may come out that would cause Shadow to need these services. Which intrigues me as to what that could be. Of course, it’s possible that there WAS no point and it’d never be mentioned again. In that case, then…yeah then it might have been pointless <_<. But if this is going somewhere I thought it was interesting.
Looking for an Answer (Scorpion) – At first I thought this would get old, but I kinda like the fact that more and more people are being creeped out by Scorpion and his weird behavior. I do wonder where he will go from here, as I have said before. I wish Flamingo was still writing. I don’t know what happened to him, but Flamingo vs Scorpion in some crazy-guy feud would be absolutely amazing, since Flamingo is (was I guess) one of the best writers in ACW, and Scorpion is quite the talented writer himself. The more I think of it the more I wish it could happen. Just some violent crazy feud they could have. Anyways though, another good segment for Scorpion who if he can find some way to make his unorthodox character work in feuds could have an amazing future
What Have You Done for Me Lately (Thunderkiss) – Definitely TK’s best promo of the night. Really liked this one. The XS3/TK feud has a lot of promise as they always have good stuff with each other. I hope XS3 has a segment later on. I didn’t like TK saying that XS3 deviated from the script, implying that XS3 was “supposed” to join SLA in kayfabe but then chose not to. That’s kinda dumb, as if we are assuming there is a “script” then him joining ACW would be scripted as well <_<. I dunno, that seemed kind of stupid to me, but the segment was really good. I liked this one a lot. XS3 vs Thunderkiss has been done a lot, but I still am ready for it to be done again.
Why Phillips? (CP/Senator) – Ok, I must say this, because this is like the fiftieth time. Im pretty sure Shadow’s team is called Rennaisance, not Resistance, which is what CP keeps calling it. Unless Resistance refers to Team ACW. Or unless I’m wrong and it is Resistance. But Im pretty sure CP is wrong, and because its CP…he probably is wrong. Anyways a pretty good segment, especially because its interesting how CP isn’t really on a team, since he hates Dave and he hates TK. Same with Senator I guess. I don’t really get why there IS that handicapped match but whatever, mostly because it isn’t usual for the heel to be on the side with one, and the faces on the side with two. But yeah, still, a good segment, and I liked the opposing viewpoints of CP and Senator.
X, I Gon’ Give it To Ya (CP/TK) – I don’t get why TK is credited for this segment for that one little sentence at the end, which seemed tacked on so TK could get more calcs. I dunno, struck me as shooting for that fourth segment. That’s all. Ugh, and also my LEAST FAVORITE SEGMENT EVER (which happens to be CP’s favorite one, go figure) reappears in here. That stupid Steele’s Mom segment. ARGH <_< Anyways CP’s part of this was good though. A lot of people are unhappy with XS3 right now. Interesting that CP and TK both are angry with him.
Return Segment (XS3) – I was getting nervous at the lack of XS3 but here he is! Two criticisms on the first paragraph. He said ACW like five times which is kinda awkward if you think of reading it out loud, and clearly stole the last line of that paragraph directly from HHH’s line about Edge’s title reign, almost word for word. Yeah, XS3. Thought you’d pull one over on us, huh? Well I’m onto you! Anyways besides that, its nice to have XS3 back and writing, and I hope he continues to do so as he makes things a lot more interesting right now. I assume from here he goes on to face either CP or TK. Or both. Either way it’ll be good.
Seeing Red (TJ) – I’m tired. So I have less to say. For some reason I really liked this though. I dunno. TJ deserves the ET title. I am happy he has it right now. So now I guess TJ feuds with Red? Sounds good to me.
Anyways, what was here was good, but I wish more would continue writing. Come on guys, don’t stop now, ACW is moving forward! Yeah! Anyways, Im tired so this feedback was probably bad, but hey it’s something, right?
