C-Verse - Predict The Champs

Thought it would be fun, seeing as TEW2010 is coming soon, that we'd predict the champs in C-Verse. Here's my predictions on the Big Two including USPW.

SWF

SWF World: Big Smack Scott

I'm telling it like it is. Big Smack Scott WILL be the World Champion, mark my words. Either him, Vengeance or Brandon James.

SWF North American: Valiant

I want to go with Marc DuBois, but I get a feeling Valiant is more 'SWF' and would be their next big thing.

SWF Tag Team: Death Row

Either that or Bumfholes.

SWF Shooting Star: Cheetah Boy

I want it to happen only for the lulz.

TCW

TCW World: Wolf Hawkins

Could see ol' Tommy putting over Rocky, only to have his own protege get put over the guy. Nothing like being the boss's protege!

TCW International: Troy Tornado

Poor Troy, all that build up to his heel turn and he ends up only getting the midcard belt. At least that's something.

TCW Tag Team: The New Wave

Probably because they're the only face tag team with any talent.

TCW All Action: Sammy Bach (2)

Stuck in the All Action title race despite being a major star in the waiting.

USPW

USPW World: Alicia Strong

It's got to happen.

USPW Television: Nicky Champion (2)

When you're linked to ol' Sammy, good things happen.

USPW Tag Team: Jim Force and Captain USA

Just so the tag division of USPW can feel the FOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORCE~!

USPW Women's: Cherry Bomb (2)

After a brief reign from Alicia Strong that is.

[Antithesis]

SWF

World: Vengeance
Eisen attempts to replicate the success of fellow monster heel and former champ, Runaway Train


North American: Angry Gilmore
An older Gilmore starts his run as gatekeeper for the company.

Tag Team: High Concept
A heel turn in 09 positions the player to feud them with the Bumfholes at the beginning of the game.

Shooting Star: Akima Brave
Assuming Dubois will be pushed up the card (or jump to TCW where he'd be a much better fit imho) Akima takes his first step to a singles career.


TCW
World: Wolf Hawkins
Assuming Wolf's skills have increased dramatically since 08 with his association with the Syndicate, the protege vs teacher storyline is a time honored storyline that fits perfectly with a traditional styled company like TCW.

International: Sammy Bach
If Wolf turns against Tommy, then he'll be replaced. Sammy's the one wrestler from the 08 roster that would make for the best replacement.

Tag Team: Dirty White Boys
The TCW tag team scene in 08 was hurting. They lost the Nation of Filth and the Darkness Warriors. Robert Oxford of the Specialists and Randal Hopkirk of Painful Procedure wasn't getting any younger. I expect we will see several new teams in TCW for 2010, and the best way to make one of them seem legitimate is to give them the straps to start off the year.

All Action: Aaron Andrews
Maybe the most under rated worker in the company; its time for Double A to start working his way up the card.


USPW
World: Runaway Train
I think this has been hinted at in 08. Eisen takes the belt off of Train and selects Vengeance to be his new monster heel. Train is a big, slow brawler looking at the down side of his career. A jump to USPW might seem appealing.

Television: Casey Valentine
Its a belt for younger talent, and I could see Casey getting hired on with the company, given his connection to Peter Valentine.

Tag Team: Painful Procedure
Again, older cast offs from the big two make a splash in USPW. The more I think about it the more I believe thats the intention behind the company's existence.

Women's: Alicia Strong
The Women's division presents at least two positives for USPW. Great macthes (compared to most of the card) and a unique identity whem put up against TCW or SWF.

SWF

SWF World: Rich Money

I honestly expect Rich Money to be the starting SWF World Champion. All it takes is a pull of the trigger..I expect it to happen eventually, why not 2010? In the interim, likely candidates to win the belt between Jan '08 and Jan-March '10, in my view, would be Gilmore, Vengeance, or Bruce for a second time.

SWF North American: Marc DuBois

I think the build for DuBois will slow down, but continue to progress. He's got plenty of time, so after he finishes dominating the Shooting Star Division, he should take a year or so to do the same to the North American scene.

SWF Tag Team: BSS and Kurt Laramee

Just for the lulz.

SWF Shooting Star: Darryl Devine

Well they take Devine as soon as they can in EVERY SINGLE GAME I EVER START, so it only seems natural that he'd end up there by the time the default database for '10 comes around. If he were to sign during 2008, then I'd honestly be surprised if he didn't come into '10 with a Shooting Star run or two under his belt.

TCW

TCW World: Tommy Cornell

Why fight it, the guy will almost always hold the thing. I do expect this to be his fifth run however, allowing someone else to hold it, or maybe a few other guys to hold it - getting away from the title for a while to make sure it doesn't get stale, much like HHH did after his feud with Batista ended. People that could do this could be Sam Keith, RDJ, Baine, any number of people..but eventually, he'll get it back, maybe like a month before the start date.

TCW International: Sammy Bach

Frankly speaking, he should be above this belt by then, but I think Bach could be an awesome fit for that title, and could be a very strong champion to help raise it's prestige, much like Hawkins was for the beggining '08 database.

TCW Tag Team: The New Wave

Because they're the GREATEST TAG TEAM IN THE WORLD TODAY.

TCW All Action: Freddy Huggins (9)

He's like a magnet for this belt..

Honestly don't pay much attention to USPW, but here we go;

USPW

USPW World: Jim Force

The guy's a cult figure on GDS, making him USPW Champion would be a way for Adam to show the fans that he listens to them.

USPW Television: Nicky Champion (2)

Golden boys should hold the midcard title for as long as they are in the midcard. Man law.

USPW Tag Team: Jim Force and Captain USA

Copied pick, as I honestly don't know who to pick.

USPW Women's: Alicia Strong

Well, the division was made purely for her, so it only makes sense that she eventually gets a run..

You can predict for other companies, you know. Not just those three. I do like your picks though. Gotta love the Big Smack Scott love.

[SWF Fan]

SWF

SWF World: Dan Stone Jr- NOTBPW was always gonna have to let him leave at some point and this would be Stone's ideal chance to hold world gold and live up to his reputation as one of the worlds best by holding the most prestigious title in wrestling.

SWF North American: Valiant- The guy is a name in the making and I can see him and DuBois eaily challenging each other over this belt by the start of 2010

SWF Television: Lassna Makutsi- The way everyone says he develops over the game they play I feel like he would be in a lower level title reign not made for high fliers, hence the creation of the TV belt.

SWF Shooting Star: Jacob Jett- I see Jett finally being snapped up by one of the big 3 and becoming a future name for them.

SWF Tag Team: The Samoan Wildboyz- I can see SWF's tag division in even worse state than before and the Wildboys being temp champions once the game starts.

USPW

[Note: I see USPW taking over TCW as Tommy fails to create any new stars as he continues putting himself over]

USPW World: Jim Force- One final chance to buyyyyyyyy HISSSSSSSS MERCHANDISEEEEEEEEEE!!!

USPW National: Nicky Champion- [Thought bringing this back could help USPW get more competition in its division] Champion still isn't main event potential but is rising the ranks quickly enough that he could be

USPW Television: 'Mr Madness' Eddie Howard- A while ago I requested a alt of Eddie Howard dressed like Randy Savage and really did think that if Adam saw it he may see a alter ego for Howard that could get him some coverage in a family friendly promotion...one can hope

USPW Womens: Alicia Strong- The only way this hasn't happened is if Alicia has left to have Champions Kid.

USPW Tag Team: The Ring Generals- I see USPW getting the strongest tag division in North America by far with the likes of the generals, High Concept leaving from SWF, Ricky DeColt and Edd Stone (released by TCW for all his trouble making), The Keith Twins etc making a young, strong tag division

TCW

TCW World: Wolf Hawkins- Traded between him and Tommy so many times the term 'match repeat penalty' would've been even more overused than ever before.

TCW International: Harry Allen- The more talented of the two partners, I'd rather have Allen in USPW with my vision (I probably will when the game comes out) but I can just see him being the breakout star for TCW in the 2 years.

TCW All Action: Mainstream Hernandez- With Jett holding one title like this, it seems that Mainstream would hold the other in my mind.

TCW Tag Team: Sammy Back and Teddy Powell- Because their tag team division is so bad they have to reunite these two and hold Bach Back more.

[Mr T Jobs To Me]

SWF World: Big Smack Scott.

That's it for me.

True prediction is true. Unless politics hold him back, there's no stopping the Smacker

SWF

World Champion: Christian Faith
At 43 years old, Faith is getting "one last run". He took the belt from Vengeance after a big and violent feud. His reign is not going well, however. Despite still being one of the most popular and consistent workers on the roster, Faith is on the bad side of the very vocal cultish portion of the fans. Simply put, these fans are unhappy at the veteran main event scene in the SWF, where a very talented and youthful midcard waits for their turn. So Faith starts with rather mediocre momentum.

North American: Marc DuBois
Though he should by all rights be a full blown main event star, DuBois has held the NA title for well over a year, dominating the midcard while everyone waits on his next big step.

Shooting Star: Lassana Matsuki
The mega-talented 22-year has developed into a world class all-around talent. Looks set to step into the upper midcard soon enough, but still doesn't have the strongest Psychology.

World Tag Team: The Pain Alliance
After an almost inevitable steroid-related incident pulled the plug on Big Smack Scott's main event push, he languished in the midcard. A nice run with the tag belts could mean he's back in Eisen's good graces, however...


TCW

World Championship: Wolf Hawkins
Still not quite the great worker that his mentor is, Hawkins finally got the title run that fans were eagerly anticipating. It seems that the youngster has developed a major ego through being TCW champion, and there are rumors of serious problems between Cornell and Hawkins over the champions' refusal to drop the belt to anyone, including the owner...

International Championship: Genghis Rahn
When Rahn and Baine were gracefully moved out of the main event scene after the Syndicate storyline played out, the reactions differed greatly. Baine walked out on the promotion, showing up in USPW and doing very little there. Rahn took to his new role, and after several months of working with the younger talent, he was rewarded with a midcard title run.

All Action: Aaron Andrews
After getting pushed into the midcard, attitude problems saw AA dropped back down.

World Tag Team: The New Wave
Not only the best tag team in the world, but also now the most popular. An awesome long-term feud against The Machines saw them become TCW tag champions for the first time, and that was followed by a feud with the big brawling bikers of Dirty White Boys. Guide and Scout are now in the 2nd run with the belts.


USPW

World Championship: Jack Bruce
Unhappy after losing the world championship and taking a back seat to some other SWF stars, Bruce tried to shock the wrestling world again by jumping ship to USPW. This one made fewer headlines, especially with serious rumors that Eisen had no interest in resigning the fading star and Cornell wouldn't even consider it. USPW fans were hyped, if just for the big Bruce-Liberty feud that never happened in TCW... but the feud turned out to be a dud, as the two biggest stars simply did not click in the ring as they fought through a series of very forgettable matches.


PGHW

Glory Crown: Bryan Vessey
After two years where he was clearly the finest pure wrestler on the planet, PGHW finally pulled the trigger on the much-anticipated title run of Vessey. Only the 2nd gaijin to hold the belt, a section of PGHW fans were against a non-native wrestler holding the belt again, which was rumored to be a reason that management held off on the title win. They may have waited too long, as Vessey's long run of greatness - which saw him put together some of the best matches of the decade, if not ever - put a heavy battering on his 38-year old body. He entered his title run very banged up and many insiders feel he will have his reign cut short due to injury.


BHOTWG

Burning World Championship: Bruce the Giant
Desperate to regain some ground on PGHW, Burning Hammer turned to the old formula of a monster gaijin. They brought back Bruce with what is rumored to be the richest contract in wrestling history, essentially tying the fate of the promotion to the success of his run. Bruce destroyed almost the entire BHOTWG roster before finally taking the belt from Nakasawa. The problem is that this approach left Burning Hammer without an obvious "savior" to build up into the challenger who can end Bruce's dominance...

[Gnrfan]

SWF

World Champion: Remo
Its got to happen!! Currently battling it out with Rich Money for the strap

North American: A repackaged Lobster Warrior
One of the best in the business getting to show off his skills against all comers

Shooting Star: Marc Dubois
Still the shooting star of the company and the longest reigning current champion.... will lose it soon when he wins a MITB match and his feud with Rich Money and Remo turns nasty and his Shooting star title is collatral

World Tag Team: Bumfholes
Awesome!


TCW

World Championship: Tommy Cornell

Still going strong as the best in the business, But Wolf is after his title after The Syndicate wasn't big enough for the two of them


International Championship: Troy Tornado

The champion in a tough field along with Law, Peak & Rahn all after his title.


All Action: Sammy Bach

Undefeated for over a year, but a new wave of high flying talent has arrived including Jett, Gino Montero & Hernandez to add to the roster.


World Tag Team: The New Wave

Still going strong


USPW

World Championship: Runaway Train
