Entrant #15: R-Truth

Striker: Do the Men of Low Moral Fiber have anything else up their sleeves tonight?

Heenan: Nah, it's just Truth. I coulda told you that.

Jericho catches Truth with a stomp as he comes in. Mario swoops in to eliminate Truth! Now he's a kill-stealer too! (53) Mario takes a moment to admire his handiwork, but Jericho catches him from behind with a suplex! (54) Truth taunts Sonic (MLMF ended his career, after all!) and Jericho almost tosses Sonic out while they argue. Almost. (55) Sonic finds the ring and monkey flips Jericho out! (56)

Entrant #16: @MajinZidane

Striker: Boko is looking for a first win, and what a grand one this would be!

Heenan: I don't know how many more of these goody two-shoes guys I can take. Maybe they'll all fall out.

Mario and Boko lock up in a test of strength. Mario eventually comes out on top and drops an elbow on Boko. (57) Mario eliminates Boko with a head scissors. (58) Tails reminds us he's here by dumping a drink over Mario's head before he goes back to fighting Sonic! (59) Mario busts out the Mario Tornado in retaliation. (60)

Entrant #17: @Eddv

Striker: The last hope of the MLMF tonight!

Heenan: Maybe they have another guy! But I'm not telling you.

Mario very very nearly gets an OHKO on Eddv with a Mario Tornado. (61) Instead Mario spears Eddv, but Eddv is still hanging on. (62) A Hip Drop doesn't do it either. (63) But Mario DOES manage to put him away with a full nelson slam! (64)

Entrant #18: Antonio Brown

Striker: It's the hottest free agent in football, Antonio Brown!

Heenan: Don't pretend you're cool enough to follow sports.

Mario goes for another full nelson, but Brown slips out before long. (65) Mario however catches him with a Super Jump Punch, sending him out. (66) There's one for Sonic too, but Sonic manages to stay alive. (67) Mario and Sonic chain wrestle to fill time. (68)

Entrant #19: Zangief

Striker: The first Knight Radiant enters the ring! With Kora yet to appear and Maniac guaranteed #30, do you think this group has a good chance tonight?

Heenan: I sure hope so because I'm tired of looking at Mario's ugly mug.

Mario is still working on Sonic, but a Hip Drop doesn't soften him up enough to eliminate. (69) Instead, Sonic hits a Homing Attack! (70) Mario catches Sonic with a flapjack off the ropes. (71) Zangief picks his spot and tries to toss out Sonic, but he skins the cat. (72)

Entrant #20: Eddie Guerrero

Striker: Can you feel the heat, Heenan?

Heenan: Yeah, I don't think they paid the A/C bill.

Eddie runs circles around Zangief, wearing him down with a flurry of offense. (73) Mario hits a flipping dropkick on Sonic. Doesn't eliminate him, but the crowd likes it. (74) Three Amigos on Zangief! (75) Sonic wipes out Mario with a lariat. (76)

Entrant #21: @TheSultanOfSlam

Striker: The rumors are true- the third Ed is here!

Heenan: That's about two too many for my tastes.

Striker: Just two?

Heenan: The old one has good booze.

Sultan stalks his prey while Sonic hits Mario with a Homing Attack. (77) Mario responds with a series of chops. (78) Spinning Lariat on Eddie! (79) Sultan stabs Eddie with a fork, but the ref is tired of the foreign objects and confiscates the fork. (80)

Fuck you Mario.

FUCK YOU

Entrant #22: B8UCA Hype Guy

Striker: It's the Viceroy of Videos! The Purveyor of the Pantheon! The Headmaster of Hype himself!

Heenan: ...Yeah, but can he even wrestle?

Sultan launches Eddie over the top. (81) Mario still can't finish off Sonic. (82) Sonic piledrivers him! (83) Hype Guy gets Zangief in a sleeper and hangs on for dear life. (84)

Entrant #23: Tommy Dreamer

Striker: Straight out of Tombolo's ECW Diary, it's Tommy Dreamer!

Heenan: Yeah he couldn't break out of the upper midcard there either.

Zangief gets Hype Guy off his back, then yeets Dreamer into the sun. (85) Mario loses focus and Tails throws a ring at his head. (86) Sonic capitalizes with a flurry of strikes. (87) Hype Guy is going back to the Princess Bride strats with Zangief. (88)

Entrant #24: @Panthera

Striker: ...y'know, this theme isn't really suited for a guy entering into a serious angle

Heenan: Yeah well he can win a match and get back to me.

Mario hits Sonic with a Giant Swing. (89) Zangief is struggling with Hype Guy (90) but removes him by running backwards into the corner. (91) ....Only for Panthera to level him with a dropkick! (92)

.....Okay I'm sorry. I budgeted the whole afternoon for this but that appears to not be enough. >_> I have tickets to an indy show tonight so I'll finish when I get back if I'm awake. <_<

Entrant #25: @ScareChan

Striker: It's B8WL's resident Netflix expert, looking for a shot against his good friend Cena!

Heenan: This kid's impressive! He got off his mom's couch AND wiped the Cheeto dust off his shirt!

Scare drives by Zangief with an elbow strike. Panth finishes Zangief off with another dropkick! (93) Sonic goes for a rana on Mario....But Mario powerbombs him to the outside to finish the battle of the ages! (94) Mario's pumped! He plants a foot in Sultan's gut. The crowd is behind him....Mario clotheslines Sultan over the top! (95) Panth and Scare have had about enough of the Mario run, and put the boots to him before he can rack up more eliminations. (96)

3...2...1...

Entrant #26: Daniel Bryan

Striker: We're nearing the end of this Rumble, and one of the favorites to win has made a late entrance!

Heenan: I'm telling ya, it's gonna come down to Mario and Maniac. And then the King will put that guy in his place like he did last week.

Bryan decides to be the next guy to try Mario, and gets caught in a full nelson for his trouble. (97) Mario tosses Bryan into Panth, nearly sending both out. (98) Mario remedies this by Super Jump Punching Panth over and out. (99) Mario powerslams Scare as the countdown begins again. (100)

3...2...1...
https://rave.dj/kgw5dIl-tFNkTw
Entrant #27: @Strife2

Strife enters and gives Scare an extra slam. Strife flings Mario over the top! ...But Mario skins the cat as Strife walks away. Scare has a similar close call against a toss from Bryan. (101) With both on the apron, Mario Jump Punches Scare to the floor! (102) Solid Knee Plus on Mario! Mario tumbles over the top but onto the apron. The announcers notice some...golden....butterflies? The lights flicker for a moment, and when they come back, Mario is on the ground nursing his leg. There's a....stake in it? He'll be able to walk it off probably, but he has been eliminated from the Rumble under mysterious circumstances! (The official record books will credit Bryan with an elimination.) Mario was chosen as a sacrifice by Highlight Reel D. He has the right to bemoan his fate. (103)

((Depending on the interpretation it was that or have Morgana steal his heart. I'm not sure which would be better but this has better possibilities for the future >_>))

Hype Guy takes advantage of the confusion to hit a Chop Block on Bryan! (104)

Entrant #28: @Korayashi

Striker: Have you ever worn a beard, Heenan?

Heenan: If Kora wins this Rumble, I might start one!

Kora opens up by kicking Strife in the head. (105) Strife just tackles him. (106) Bryan gets a Yes chant going so he can dig deep to beat Hype Guy. (107) Strife's working Kora's leg with a series of stomps and drops. (108)

3...2...1...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A5JFGrysqm8" data-time="
Entrant #29: M. Bison

Striker: What a huge advantage for the Knights Radiant to pull number 29 after locking down 30!

Heenan: Bison and Maniac were the favorites of any smart bookie anyway, and now they've got this all wrapped up! Consider it....called.

Strife is not quite managing to get Kora out, so he goes after Bison instead, and throws him into Kora's boot. (109) Strife freakin' chokeslams Bison out! (110) Bryan has Hype Guy in the Yes Lock! (111) Bryan does a diving headbutt and finally vanquishes his greatest foe. (112)

(I am dumb Bison is YMD not the Knights. I get my 3-man heel stables mixed up sometimes >_>)

Entrant #30: King @Maniac64

Striker: No surprises here, but will it throw off Maniac's plan to be deprived of his Knights heading into the final four?

Heenan: If he was a simple peasant, sure, but this is your king! Show some respect!

Your final four is Bryan, Strife, Kora, and Maniac! Bryan welcomes Maniac with some hard chops. (113) Bryan beats Maniac in a test of strength, and backs him into the ropes. (114) Kora catches Strife with an armdrag. (115) Maniac fights his way out of the ropes with some shots to Bryan's face. (116) Bryan responds with a Bulldog, and Strife pulls Maniac's leg as he tries to get back up. (117) Maniac stumbles forward but lands a Bionic Elbow on Bryan anyway. (118) Maniac tosses Bryan, but Bryan hangs on, and pulls Maniac out to the apron with him! (119) They're brawling on the apron....and both lose their footing and fall! (120)

Kora and Strife remain! One of these two men is facing Cena at PLAAYMania! Kora chokes Strife out for a bit. (121) Strife powers out of it (122) and slams Kora! He's almost there! The fans cheer him on.....and Maniac bumrushes him, throwing him out! (123)

Korayashi is going to PLAAYMania, and it's all thanks to Maniac!

ECHO: "Right, first things first, I have to commend the war criminal on his stamina and skill, you'd have to be blind or even more petty than I am to deny that."

Ray: "War cri- oh, right."

ECHO: "Yes, the plumber is the war-"

Ray: "I did actually watch that episode."

ECHO: *Pauses, not expecting this at all.* "...R-right, ahem. Anyhow, very good show, Mr. Toadstool, especially with... whatever the hell happened with that stake. ...I... I will have to take a look into that, since security clearly cannot be trusted. The loss has set my other plans back a little, I have to admit, but I am a patient person."

Ray: "What else, if anything?"

ECHO: "A lesser being would comment on the performance of their former colleagues, but this one will only say that they hope they recover from what happened there sooner rather than later. A more intelligent being would also not comment on how they're working on acquiring a certain young lawyer's services for future use."

Ray: "And anything else?"

ECHO: "...Nothing, really. ...Should I have...?"

Ray: "No comments on the winner?"

ECHO: "..." "..." "...' *A cybernetic sweatdrop seeps through the gasmask.* "...."

Ray: "...You don't actually know who won did you."

ECHO: "Honestly no, I was chasing young Miss Pyrope and trying to catch her with my chest nets as soon as I got backstage, only heard bits and pieces of commentary over her laughing at me."

Ray: "...Korayashi."

ECHO: "...Who-"

Ray: "ONE OF YOUR OLD STABLEMATES"

ECHO: "...Wait, really?"

Ray: "YES!"

ECHO: "....I retract my stat- wait, the one with that ridiculous beard now?"

Ray: "Oh, now you remember!"

ECHO: "He's facing Cena."

Ray: "Yes."

ECHO: "...This is unexpected. Might end up having to readjust my plans further." *They look unusually serious at that, even after the change in attitude.* "...How many eliminations did he...?"

Ray: "...None, actually."

ECHO: "What?"

Ray: "Maniac eliminated that serial killer guy for him."

ECHO: "...So he he won the Rumble, in a match where the leader got double digit eliminations, and lasted well hour a hour from what I heard... without getting one himself?"

Ray: "Indeed he did."

ECHO: "...Par for the course, really. Alright, won't have to adjust plans after all, most likely, but must consult the Council, resume my training and get Mrs. Pyrope settled in, after she's done trying to murder me for chasing her around the building. ...And double training for a potential match with Mrs. DuPree. If I know her, she's going to be frustrated after what happened out there."

I really like the MLMF theme.

It makes us seem like the comedy villains we are at this point.

Fucking Mario this wont be the end of me ILL STAB YOU WITH A FORK A FORK I TELL YOU!

(It looks like B8WL will see the Maniac vs Strife feud that somehow never happened in UCA.)

Congratulations to my Knight for showing why he is a member of the Knights Radiant. Soon our order will have not only the King but also the champion!

That was a vintage David performance there

Eddv posted...

Fuck you Mario.

FUCK YOU

---

I think next Rumble I'll start 4 in the ring like some of the video games. May or may not do much to stop somebody making a run as dominant as Mario's, but should prevent that long boring stretch of having 1-2 people at a time. We run the risk of having the opposite problem of having the ring fill up too much, but that's the side I'd rather err on I think.

Show #43

-In a somewhat awkward moment, Bowser welcomes Mario to the Koopa Korner. Mario has no idea what happened to him at the Rumble, but he wants some answers! He also wants to blow off some steam against anybody who's ready to go. He issues an open challenge! It's answered by....Dario Cueto? Cueto already has booked Mario in a match for tonight against XIII, but since Mario is so fired up, he'll go ahead and make it a Mastery of Taybles match! He also has a special gift to thank Mario for wrecking the first half of his Rumble. Ludwig runs in from the crowd and attacks Mario! Bowser gets in on the action, but here comes....Daniel Bryan, to make the save! It's a bit awkward between him and Mario, since Bryan was the one to officially eliminate Mario, but regardless we are saved from what could've been a mean beatdown.

-Match: Bryan v. @Eddv
Eddv comes out and decides now is a good time to cut a promo. Bryan lays him out and the bell rings. As expected, Bryan is able to take control early on, but Eddv comes back with some power offense, building to a sicknasty Squat Drop! Bryan rallies....and puts him away with a running powerbomb!
Winner: Bryan

-Cueto comes out to ask if Bryan is sorry for sticking his nose in other peoples' business. This resembles the interaction with Panth a few weeks back, and Bryan similarly refuses to accept Cueto.

-Mastery of Taybles: Champion Mario v. @XIII_rocks
Both of these men made huge statements at the Rumble, and yet find themselves out of the title picture afterwards. Fans are solidly behind Mario as the competitors enter. Mario seems to be more fired up, starting with an Armbar and then a series of shots to the face. XIII escapes the initial flurry by hitting him with a rock. (one of 13) Mario rolls out of the ring for a breather and a table, but XIII chucks him into the barricade. Mario dodges a followup tackle, and the crowd rallies behind him some more! Big suplex on the outside, but XIII breaks the momentum with a thumb to the eye. Mario responds with an enziguri, and then a moonsault on his downed challenger. Mario sets up the tayble...and Mushroom Stomps XIII through it!
Winner and STILL champion: Mario

-XIII isn't happy...and smacks the celebrating Mario with the other 12 rocks! Mario is dazed as his run of bad nights continues, but at least he keeps the title.

-Non-title: UCA Champ Bang v. @Panthera
Panthera is getting a bit more edgy lately, and indeed runs in to interrupt Bang's pre-match gloating. Unfortunately, "comedy face developing a mean streak" is no match for "actual psychopath heel," and Bang immediately drags Panth down to her level and starts to beat him with experience. Panth takes a step back and regroups, and has a much better time trying to go to the mat instead. Big rally....but Bang cuts it off with a chokehold, soon after getting the pinfall.
Winner: Bang

-This dog thing clearly isn't working for Panth... ((hey friend the dice want you to change your gimmick again >____>))

-Truth formally welcomes Ludwig von Koopa into the B8WL and the Men of Low Moral Fiber. He calls him Korayashi a few times, but never mind that.

@IhatethisCPU
-Match: ECHO v. Ludwig
There is clearly no love lost here, nor any hesitancy to bend the rules. Referee Jerry Maddux gives them plenty of leeway to fight fast and loose. ECHO baits Ludwig into trying a low blow- a questionable move at best against a non-binary(?) android(?). ECHO grabs a chair, and they do a rather silly spot trading it back and forth to alternate chair shots. Ludwig chickens out eventually when it's his turn, eliciting some boos. ECHO instead simply grabs him and hits the Spike Piledriver for the 123.
Winner: ECHO

-ECHO spots a man in the crowd reading a newspaper, and claims that the big news will be ECHO taking the UCA title from Bang. Mr. Zero is insulted that anything is trying to compete with his paper.

---

Damn you Daniel Bryan.
---

- @Strife2 has a mic. Last week, Kora vaulted into the main event of PLAAYmania at Strife's expense. Kora has big title picture fish to fry tonight, and for now that's fine, because Strife has a score to settle. Maniac thought he was screwing Strife, but in the long run he is just screwing himself, beca- Maniac blasts Strife from behind with a scepter! Maniac beats Strife down off the cheap shot. Strife has some trouble standing, but wants to have the match anyway.

-Match: Strife v. King @Maniac64
Maniac is clearly feeling like he has this in the bag before it's started, but soon receives a grim reminder that Strife is tougher and nastier than an old rusted nail. After Strife bullies his smaller opponent for a bit, Maniac resorts to grabbing a TV monitor....but it explodes in his face! He's not Dean Ambrose, though, so the match is able to continue. Maniac eventually manages to outlast Strife, but it took all his best stuff AND a pre-match beatdown.
Winner: Maniac

-This probably isn't over, but it looks like Maniac has been able to outwit the monster so far. ((Maniac learns SMART))

-Match: CeNation (B8WL Champ Cena and @ScareChan ) v. Knights Radiant ( @Korayashi and Zangief) w/King Maniac
Continuing the pattern du jour, Maniac bonks Scare with a scepter while the ref is going over the rules with Cena. Very back and forth match. Scare tanks a Spinning Lariat, surviving to tag out to Cena. Later on, Zangief distracts the ref while Maniac slides in the ring and puts the STF on Cena himself! Maniac escapes without getting caught. Kora is back to his feet....and gets the Barber's Chair on Cena! Cena loses consciousness in the sleeper hold!
Winners: Kora and Zangief

---

Oh god. I turned face somehow. I don't know what to do. What do faces do again?

*Realizes there's a HEAL glove in Bray's gimmick too*

Ohhhh so that's what that is.

*stands up and shuffles backstage under own power*

Show #44

-Rock is in the ring with the other members of the CeNation. They got roughed up a bit last week by the Knights, but they're gonna be ready for them tonight...especially with Strife to even the numbers! Soon Kora won't be able to hide behind Maniac, and the Champ will still be here after Mania! Young Creed Bratton slides in from the crowd! He informs Cena that he does not truly appreciate the power of the beard- why, some of his greatest encounters were with bearded ladies. Creed attempts to connect this back to the Cena/Kora match, but @ScareChan just tells Creed to get out of the ring or he'll drop him faster than Netflix is gonna drop his show in a few decades!

-Flair went out there and got the job done against King two weeks ago. Now he's got another tough competitor in @eaedwards6400 , but he's going to suffer the same fate!

-Match: Eaed v. Flair
Back and forth match early on. Eaed hits the Throwback early! Flair rolls out of the ring, and Eaed gives chase. They both just start throwing haymakers on the outside! They be clubberin'! The brawl goes out into the stands for a double DQ.
No contest

-Non-title: UCA Champ Bang v. @MajinZidane
The announcers are kinda overlooking Boko's chances here, in favor of building up to Bang/ECHO at Mania. It starts out looking like a squash indeed, but Boko rallies back off a big boot. The momentum is actually cut off by a random fan running in to try and help Boko out- Bang chucks them both to the outside in the confusion. Bang catches Boko with a big lariat as he comes in. Cover, but Boko kicks out. Another lariat....Boko kicks out again at 2.9. Third time's the charm though, and Bang hits a top rope elbow drop to seal the deal.
Winner: Bang

-Flair comes out to congratulate Bang. Looks like he's officially joining YMD!

-Ludwig is going on about how bad MLMF are gonna rough up their opponents tonight, but David's entrance cuts him off.

-Non-title: Hardcore Champ @davidponte v. Ludwig
Ludwig rolls out every heel trick in the book, but is hoist by his own petard when David chucks him into an exposed turnbuckle. The Koopa Kar comes into play, on the outside, but David scrambles up the corner and dives onto Ludwig! Both men are down for a while, but both men beat the count barely. David is there first though, and rolls up Ludwig for the win. Ludwig is unahppy with this result.
Winner: David

@IhatethisCPU
-Backstage, ECHO is particularly wound up tonight. They are focused on defeating Bang, and destroying her boyfriend would be a unique opportunity...but one can never be too careful around these thugs.

-Match: ECHO v. Bison
ECHO chokes Bison out for a bit, then for a break, throws him out over the top. Bison wipes out hard on the outside, and doesn't make it back for the count. That's that.
Winner by countout: ECHO

-Bang helps Bison to the back, and he can be heard warning her that ECHO is going to be a tough challenger.

-Mario is backstage with Cueto. He thinks Cueto has gotten to be a bit too out of control. Cueto thinks this is odd, coming from a guy who wiped out a lot of the Rumble and then didn't even have the decency to get eliminated in a sensible fashion. Mario shouldn't get involved in management business, and Bryan and Panth are about to find that out the hard way.

-Match: Bryan and @Panthera v. MLMF ( @Eddv and Truth)
Early on, Truth hits Panth (on the apron) with the Truth or Consequences....but bumps the ref in the process! ....Into the ring slides MORGANA, who will take over the referee duties so that everybody can go home to bed. He's clearly favoring the face team though, and Panth in particular because he hasn't come up with a third gimmick so now he's a Phantom Thief I guess. Bryan and Panth dominate from there on out, with Panth scoring the fall on Truth.
Winners: Bryan and Panth


---

-Cueto comes out to trash these two delinquents, but Panth is going to make it his mission to steal the heart of the Priest of Greed.

-Match: Cena, Scare, and @Strife2 v. Knights Radiant ( @Korayashi , King @Maniac64 , and Zangief)
Maniac's too busy looking regal to hear the opening bell, and gets a Cena spinebuster for his trouble. The match immediately spirals out of control as all six men get involved! It spills out to the floor....and into the audience! Strife starts taking out random bearded fans just to be safe. The ref calls for the bell.
NO CONTEST

-Miz is panicking, with how much time that match was supposed to fill. He turns to see @TheSultanOfSlam , who launches into a barely comprehensible tirade about some guy forgetting to put him on some list, not being booked for two weeks, running an 80s throwback gimmick, David breaking Ludwig's back and making him humble, and the need for a real hardcore champion. Miz rides this out and decides to give him a go at the Hardcore Title at PLAAYMania!

Oh shit was I supposed to come up with a new gimmick again? Sorry I've kind of lost track of this as it's gone on <_<

Maniac, let the fate of the unfortunate serve as a reminder what will happen to you. Nothing will save you, no one will come to help you, and when you bleed out, I won't have any pity on you.

Strife, I am going to put you down like the airsick lowlander you are. You are not man enough to stand before the King and survive, and I will be making an example of you at PLAAYMANIA so that the rest of these unblessed heathens will know better.

(Strife fits as a face even worse than CPU so I try to let him be a bit tweenery at least :P )

---

(Yes. Thank you. Unless I completely altered my presentation, there's no goddamn way this character could ever work as a straight face).

It doesn't even have the luxury of "Brock Lesnar is cool, he beats the shit out of people" kinda thing./

-Non-title: UCA Champ Bang v. @MajinZidane
The announcers are kinda overlooking Boko's chances here, in favor of building up to Bang/ECHO at Mania. It starts out looking like a squash indeed, but Boko rallies back off a big boot. The momentum is actually cut off by a random fan running in to try and help Boko out- Bang chucks them both to the outside in the confusion. Bang catches Boko with a big lariat as he comes in. Cover, but Boko kicks out. Another lariat....Boko kicks out again at 2.9. Third time's the charm though, and Bang hits a top rope elbow drop to seal the deal.
Winner: Bang

BANGGGGGGGG

One day, Tombolo, I'll win my first match. Just you wait.

everybody's in a faction these days so I'm waiting for a Boko/Eaed/Strife/faceturn XIII??? "let's win a match ever please" faction

someday when I'm feeling motivated I'm gonna go through and figure out if success correlates to certain attributes. I came up with a point buy system in an attempt to balance everybody, but I suspect it's not as balanced as I assumed...although it might be too late to fix >_>

---

course with XIII he tends to get hit more with the instant finish losses/DQs than just gettin' beat

I feel like there have been a lot of those recently

Today on Tout, Miz announced that Cena/Kora will take place in a cage to prevent interference from either side. Also, Strife/Maniac will now be a Hardcore match.

(....Did we buy Tout? How much money do we have to make bad decisions with?!)

(it was stipulated in Bryan's contract)
