HISTORY:
  
Abnad Sumata was a blood thirsty crime syndicate boss on the planet
Spica. Under his control was one of the most sadistic and largest mob
factions on the planet. At the time Abnad had many vices and was growing
by the day. But money and power were not all that he was interested in he
wanted control of all other crime factions so he could have total control
on Spica. Then he could begin conquests of other major markets across the
galaxy. Soon all the major crimelords of Spica were
knee deep in all out gangland style warfare. Many tried forming pacts
with other leaders but knew in the end that they would be broken. Then
the unspeakable happened a traitor in Abnad's faction laid the plans to
the murder of Abnad Sumata. Gaining the trust of scores of other
crimelords an ambush was set for a major drug aquistion of Sumata's.
Then it happened Sumata's faction was caught up in a heavy crossfire
when all of the sudden several bullets penetrated into the skull of Abnad
Sumata's. Fearing they had lost their leader several of Abnad's most
trusted men stowed away with his body intact. The men rushed him to a
well trusted surgeon within their ranks. Abnad was placed on a life
preserving machine until further arrangements could be made to possibly
save his life. Finally a deviously twisted surgeon on the planet Draco
was contacted. Abhad's body was teleported to his facility where measures
were been taken to preserve this ruthless man. With the use of the laser
technology available at this time progress was made to save the life of
Abnad. Though the surgery was a success it didn't proceed without
complicating majors. Abnad suffered a very possibly non-recurring memory
loss and a new medical breakthrough had to be used to reconstruct the
dome and frontal portions of the skull. The surgeon (name withheld) used
a new alloy called Plastanium to form Abnad's new skull. This material
though harder than most known steels is infact lightweight and totally
undectable when placed under the skin. In the months that pasted Abnad
began to fully recover from the
accident but still had no memory of his tainted past. He was beginning to
become hooked on the total warfare of the going into the sport of
Wrestling (mainly the G.W.F.). Now with Abnad's size and weight he
thought this could finally be a healthy outlet to utilize the sadistic
nature that he had still contained even though he still had no
recollection of his past. At the present time Abnad is still wating to
hear if the G.W.F. will offer a contract for his services or not. He is
also a member of XCF (X-treme Cosmic Fighting).

VITALS & FINISHER:

Abnad Sumata has taken the ring name of the BLOODHOUSE BUTCHER.
He stands 6'4" tall and weighs 413lbs. BLOODHOUSE BUTCHER'S finishing
maneuver is called HEAD BUST in which the Butcher will headbutt his
opponent (from a standing position) who is lying on the mat. This move
will always cause an injury (1d6) due to the hard reconstructed skull of
Abnad Sumata.

DESCRIPTION:

The BLOODHOUSE BUTCHER would be drawn similar in measure to
Abdullah the Butcher. He does have darker complected skin. Menacing
looking eyes and more than likely bald.

*Warhawke is in Issue 7!*

B. Power by (Jeremy Carlile: [email protected])

Power is a big man from earth.  His intensity is matched only by his only
ally, Terror (Issue 7!).  Not a whole lot is known of this man, except
the fact that he is a former champion of a smaller wrestling federation
on earth where he once feuded with Kati.  he comes to the gwf with the
only purpose of winning titles.  He doesnt wear fancy clothes or come to
the ring with music blaring.  He also refuses interviews.

His finisher is a powerfull power bomb with a twist:  instead of dropping
the opponent on their back, he drops them on the back of the head!  The
results are devatiating often resulting in easy pin victories.

C. Mr. Defense by Joe Jaczewski ([email protected])

I figured I'd jump on the band wagon and submit two wrestlers
over the next two Issues. I chose to enter Mr. Defense first because he
may not be as exciting as MR. OFFENSE (see Issue 7).
These two team as Perfectly Perfect! These are kind of
combination that will threaten the "Dream Team" of Rising Sun and
Overkill (see Issue 1)!
Appearance: Mr. Defense has medium length hair all around his
head. He has stubble on his face (just not by his mustache-it's shaved)
and a Gotea. Both Offense weighs a little more than Defense (hence
strength and agility) but both of their bodies are fully muscular.
Offense is an inch taller than Defense. Offense has Medium sized hair on
top and shaved in the back. his whole face is shaved except for his
"Russian" curly mustache. They are both on the Hero side and hate
villains.
History: No, they're not brothers. They worked together in High
School and College (both receiving scholarships) in wrestling. They
became BEST friends and their abilities work to complement each other.
Without further ado, here is Defense!

Mr. Defense
Level One Offense Level One Defense

A. THE GREATEST AETHRAN  NIGHTMARE CASTLE MATCH OF ALL TIME!
by Jonathan Knapik ([email protected])

I came up with this match, hoping to crown a new leader of the
Gladiators of Aethra. Vengeance had left,a nd went to become leader of
the Horsemen of the Apocalypse(His name is Death now) .Wolf had taken
control
for the time being, but rumors were circulating that his loyalties were
not
with the Gladiators. So I decided to have a match, determining who would
be leader
if Wolf was to leave. The participants were Thunder and Overkill, King
Kobra (who was inelligible to be leader...he just wanted to hurt
someone!), Ravage,
Death(aka Vengeance, who just wanted to fight his former friends), and
Mayhem. The
match started and, the 6 men went at it. For a long time, Thunder and
Overkill fought each other, as did Kobra and Ravage. Eventually, Mayhem
broke free and headed upstairs toward the first key.
Thunder went through the right door, followed by Overkill, in
hopes of getting the 2nd key. Death went unnnoticed towards the 3rd key.
Death
thought he was sneaky as he made his way to the top of the castle, but he
didnt notice Ravage, who took his key and pinned him. Death was sent to
the first room, taking him out of the match. Thunder and Overkill fought
all the way to the top, but eventually Thunder pinned him, sending him
back to the start.
Mayhem was one room behind Ravage when King Kobra jumped him.
They went at it for a while. Kobra attempted a clothesline, but instead
tripped a secret door, and hasn't been heard from since! Mayhem walked
into the same room as avage. Thunder was in th e room in front of the
throne room, waiting to see what happened between Ravage and Mayhem. When
he saw Mayhem win, Thunder attacked Mayhem. All 3 keys were at stake!
They duked it out for a while, but Mayhem was too much for him.Mayhem
grabbed the 3rd key and won, giving him the potential
leadership of the group that had him banished! What a match! 

B. Who's the MAN? by Joe Jaczewski

I based this on rankings and my opinion. To be eligible to enter
the
contest, you have to be all plain human and have no special effects. This
rules out Chaos, Colossus, Max Shield, and others. I have also eliminated
Wolf for two reasons: he is kind of immortal (slow ageing) and because he
would be hands down the winner!

5. Raven-His high-flying skills have kept him the GWF Rankings and got
him on this chart. I like his style. He gets the crowd into the match
without non-human spectacles.

4. Mayhem-This guy has climbed on my rankings ever since he's been in my
federation. Just check out GWF Promoter #32. He's #9 for Galaxian Champ,
#1 for Interplanetary, and IS the HEAVY METAL CHAMP! He is a big man who
knows how to use his weight.

3. Heracles-Skillful Warrior and stands up to half-man, half-machine,
Colossus The Tomorrow Man. He is another wrestler who hits all singles
the charts in the GWF, including holding a belt. He is #7 for Galaxian
Champ, #2 for Heavy Metal, and IS the INTERPLANETARY champ. Boy, these
villains got the goods!

2. Vengeance-Whether he is on the chart or off the chart, he is still a
threat! Everyone loves him. To show his greatness as an independent
wrestler, some promoters decided to have him leave the Gladiators! This
guys' form of wrestling scares the hell out of any opponent.

1. The Matador of M83-What can I say? He has been the Galaxian Champ on
numerous occasions and keeps his rankings when he is not! Did I miss
something? Is this really a MAN?

Please correct me if I made any mistakes.

long
feud; The Mercenaries dominated Genesis Prime; CFW Cruiserweight
Champion (I've had this title for a long time) Pulsar defeated No.1
Contender
Enigma; Vyper won a 10-man battle royale to become #10 contender to the
heavyweight crown; CFW Tag Team Champions, Coat of Arms(US PATRIOT
subbing for the injured Alpha Force) lost there long held titles to The
Gladiators; IP Champion Vengeance lost by dq to Holocaust after new
manager MORPHEUS interfered; CFW Heavy Metal Champion Kane (SWEET CREATED
WRESTLER!) grounded Mayhem with a LUNATIC SPASM!; Colossus defeated CFW
Champion Chaos to win the title! MAIN EVENT!!!!!!  Sam's Team:
Superiority Complex,
Dark Justice, and Heracles vs. Omega's Team: Pegasus, Raven, Archon, and
Jack of Diamonds. If Sam loses his group must disband! If Omega loses,his
team must sit out for 1 month and lose rating! Raven took out all four
men to
win! After the match, Mesmer came out....and alot of stuff hapened so I
wont
go into it. Later, Omega and Sam hugged (aaaaaaahhhhh) and Sam announced
he will now manage Bishop Hell!

Anyways, now Vengeance, Chaos, Fang, Blazing Skull, and Scourge are
called
the Triumvate (main members are the first 3 named) and are managed by
Morpheus.
Wolf has taken over as leader of The Gladiators of Aethra.

A. Aethran Nightmare Castle Match by Jonathan Knapik

The Aethrans are never afraid. They go through life with a confidence
that nothing can touch them. But if there is one day that they might seem
just a little afraid it would be during the Aethran Trial of War. The
Aethran Trial of War is the final test, determining whether or not a
young Aethran is ready for war! This test takes place in one of the many
castles on Aethra.The object is for the young Aethran to capture the
Chalice of War,which is locked behind a door in a tower above the castle.
Many tales have been told of hideous monsters, bottomless pits, and many
other things. Now some think these stories are told to frighten those who
aren't Aethran, but Thakur himself has stated the legitimacy of them.

      Usually there are 6 men trying out, but only one chalice!! Sooooo,
they
have to fight each other(and the dangers in the castle)!!! This match is
way cooler with Aethrans so promoters send in your created Gladiator
headbangers(like Ravage!) You can have as many men in the castle as you
want, but too many
will take a long time. Lots of interesting stipulations could be added to
this match.Hope
you like it!

Object:
-Capture the 3 keys inside the castle and then use them to open the
door,leading to Aethran Throne Room and victory.

Rules:
-Use Titan Death Rules
-Roll on "Castle Chart"for out of ring,into ropes,into turnbuckle,and
deathjump

-Setup a castle consisting of various connecting rooms. Place "keys" in
three
of the  rooms. Make a Throne Room at the top. Each wrestler can have one
fight and one movement per turn.Use tokens to chart  wrestler's movement.

-If there are 2 wrestlers in a room,1 must fight the other before moving
on.

-Each wrestler has a "turn". If they are alone in a room, they can move
without
fighting. If the wrestler moves into an occupied room, and has not
fought, he must fight.

-If a wrestler is pinned, the pinned wrestler must go back to the
starting place.

-For a wrestler to acquire a key, they must either win a fight in a "key
room" or be  alone in that room.

-If a wrestler holding a key is pinned, the other wrestler gets that key.

7. Closing Comments

Not too many articles, but what we lack in one area, we make up
for in another. We had three wrestlers this cycle! Is anyone going to
rank the first five issues of NG? This would make for a great article. I
would do it, but I wanted an unbias opinion.

*The "KING" of all King of the Rings!

Round One:
Mandrill over Max Shield (Needless to say, he had help from
Sentry)
Prodigy over Blade
Buck Steele over Vendetta (Man, when this boy gets mad, he
dominates!)
Soldier of Fortune over Dragonmaster
(Round One Match Descriptions were made by myself)

Round Two
Mandrill pinned Prodigy (This was a long match and Prodigy had 7
tokens at the end, most of which were a result of the Voltaic Stunner.
Mandrill pretty much dominated except for a short time in the middle when
Prodigy did his Perfect Singles Finisher back to back but then Sentry
interfered in the match and broke up the pin attempt. Mandrill finished
him off with a big Atomic Drop!)

Buck Steele/Genocide pinned Soldier of Fortune ( with Corpus
Genocide.
The first time these two met, Steele didn't even transform into Genocide
and it ended in a double disqualification. I had an immediate rematch and
Soldier of Fortune looked like he was going to win it, but when Buck
Steele transformed into Genocide it was lights out. Nobody gets up from
the Corpus Genocide-who'd want to?)
(Round Two Match Descriptions were made by Steve Trash)

Round Three-Final Round!
Mandrill beat Buck Steele/Genocide (This match went back and forth
until Buck Steele changed into Genocide! Genocide pounded Mandrill from
corner to corner. A Voltaic Stunner attempt by Sentry to save Mandrill
didn't help when it hit Mandrill! To finish it off, Genocide did the
Corpus Genocide! In a quick attempt to save the pin, Sentry got up on the
ropes and aimed his Stunner at the huge-can't miss-Genocide who was
covering Mandrill. The referee got right in front of it and threatened
disqualification if he didn't get down. Sentry argued while Genocide
waited for the referee to start the count. All of a sudden, Nefarus and
Vendetta came out from under the ring mat and attacked Genocide. Sentry
was yelling and the Colonizers' were creating havoc. Mandrill regained
his composure so Nefarus, Vendetta, and finally Sentry left. Time for a
little revenged. Mandrill set off three Voltaic Stunners at point blank
ranged to Genocide. After hearing the screams and his body flapping like
a fish out of water, the referee told Mandrill, "Stop whatever you're
doing! " Mandrill actually agreed-fearing disqualification, and went for
the pin. THe lifeless body of Genocide didn't put up a fight at all. The
bell range, the crowd was shocked, and the paramedics ran into the ring.
Another victory for the Colonizers.)
(Round One Match Descriptions were made by myself)

So what do you think? Was it worth having the event? I think a cool card
would be wrestlers from NG in a King of the Ring (or any tournament you
want to have). Tell me if anyone wants to have one of those!

Sincerely,


Joe Jaczewski
