WWEF 2k17 Xbox One League Promo School
@Beaver:
"Hello, I'm Beaver, aka CanadianR and I'm the Xbox One League's promo teacher. Here is a place for new league members to improve their ability to write promos. Older members are also allowed to join if they feel that they need to have a second look if they want to step up their game or improve character. The leagues may be competitive in nature because the matches are done in the latest installment in the WWE 2k franchise, but just like a real wrestling promotion, the leagues are also built around the characters that make it up and writing promos are how we further storylines, develop character, and add hype to a match. Promos can be the backbone of a storyline and character. So let's work together to make it great!"
How it works:
-For each student, scenarios or feud topics will be assigned at random (As in whatever we feel like giving you). Your fan reaction (face or heel) will also be assigned at random so you get to experience on both ends of the spectrum. When you are assigned a scenario, whatever you are dealt is what you MUST stick too, no exceptions.
-Scenarios can range from generic to very creative, serious to comedic, main-event to a jobber, good to bad, dark to normal and easy to hard. If you are given something silly, don't complain as it is a way to prepare you for any type of scenario that can/will come up in the main league.
-If and before you change your gimmick/character, you must let the teachers know (it may not be a good move for you or your character personally, or it could be a very good move for you and your character)
-This post will be updated every week or as needed throughout. Be prepared for anything.
-Please ask for help if you need it.
-Don't skip out on the school without a reason or you will receive a strike.
-If you are in the school, you are still able to partake in matches and doing your promo counts for your weekly promo.
-Have fun and let's improve together!
Current Students:
@DemonHunter1257 - Jay Washington/Al Blizzard/Violet Harris
@Cerberus - Shaw
@AleksMonroe - Desean Brooks
@TheCreeD - Alex Creed
Scenario:
"A Little Problem..."
In a call back to my first match promo in an e-fed, which was one of the worst promos I ever wrote, this scenario this week is going to be a fun one.
"Last week, your character was in a tag team match against the popular tag team "Danger Zone" made up of Ryan Vendetta and Storm Andrews. Just as your character seemed to have the match in hand, something happened...A person of smaller stature, who was most likely drunk, ran to the ring without a shirt on and distracted you long enough for both Ryan to tag in Storm and they hit their tag finish "The Midnight Sacrifice" on you for the win. This week, obviously upset by it, you're out to address the little distraction."
Dispositions:
Writer's Choice
Deadline: Dec 17th 11:59pm
Good Luck and have fun!
When assigned, you have to get a promo done.
You need to complete 1 promo by the end of the week or it will result in a strike, but you can post up to 3 if you wish. However; if you have a reason that you are unable to promo (example: lots of school work, work, other commitments, personal issues etc.) then let us know in this thread at least 36 hours before the deadline, we'll either extend the deadline a bit or excuse you for the week.
After your promos are done, myself (and maybe some others) will look at your promos and give feedback. We'll try to give both positive and negative feedback and suggest things so you can improve!

First: Have decent grammar. While your promo doesn't need to be written by a linguistic genius, it needs to be readable and have a flow.
Second: Good formatting. There are multiple ways to make a promo appealing visually. Here are some examples:

Kayfabe - The Final Promo, For The Final Match, That Will Be His Final Mission
Kayfabe - Charge Of The Light Brigade...
Third: Don't just fill it with random trash talk to make yourself look tough for the sake of doing that (but I'll admit... doing that is fun). Make it have a purpose and reason, and either use it to send a message or further a story. (Or on occasion, have some fun and lolz, depending) No matter how short or long, that's important.
