so like once a month they have booker of the month etc.... ? (seriously how do people get them ? ) i am just curious
BTW: It just had to be the first topic. I entered as a whole to this forum thanks to it. I have changed with it. Thanks to BTW, I am a BTB Hall of Famer, Booker of a Month, won many awards and all with the modicle amount of...4 PPVs. So I owe it so much to it and I hope to continue experimenting with it (The Website, the Developmental Territory)
Rated RJC: Damn, I mentioned him (joke for the ones who knew what he did). He was the reason I entered BTB. To be honest, for a while I just scrolled over all the BTBs, not reading him as a whole, but his BTB, AOW, I read all his shows every time before I started writting my own shows. They inspired me.
Levi:I don't know what it is, but I feel attached in the BTB section to Levi. We practically entered this scene at the same time and had to battle with a BTB section with few BTBs and practically dominated by only 4 BTBs. I watched HEW grow, and Levi watched BTW grow.
Mikeraw: The man I respect the most in BTB. It is true that I checked Rated's work before all my shows, but I compared my work with his. I remember an ocassion in which he just had posted Judgement Day in his thread and I was so hyped because I had also posted my first PPV, Busted Open, but when comparing works, I said to me: One day I will achieve a PPV like this.
Rebellion PPV:Definetly my Turning Point. Maybe it was the fact that I lasted so long posting it, or the shameless spam I made on the HIAC advertising it, but I never had such an aclamation from viewers as the one I got with this PPV.
XB and Anigma: What can I say? It sure is hard to book under your shadow! As I have said before, XB got me into TNA, well, I am not lying, a little, I still hate TNA, but TNA iMPACT at least got me to watch TNA. And Anigma was the example of how a booker should post and carry himself, how a thread should be carried, it was just an example, and his BTB was another one I fully read.
SWA:It just changed my way of writting. You can compare it if you like on my thread. It is a clear difference on the my way of writting matches. I passed from having 5 lines main events to having undreamed 5 Word Pages midcard pages, and it was all to not live on the shadow of the amazing, and long matches of Weebo and SWA ANarchy GM.
The Aswer:The example of why you should stick with your thread and the effects you can have with such a long thread.
EWO:A good thread, altough it was heavily hurt by the inactivity Wrestling God took. Its best thing was the unique main event it had, and I bet a lot of bookers try to accomplish that, to create your own main event.
The BTB World Title:Yeah, believe it or not, we had one. Just like the BTB League, great idea back then, terrible to pull off right now.
Clash of the Champions:My second BTB, I did it when I was allowed to do 2 BTB. It was a great idea, and myself being a WWE fan, it was like my goal to do a WWE BTB, so it was my chance to do it. It showed how hard it is to do a 3 person BTB.
BTB Yellow Pages:The same, good idea by Anigma, but it lack of response and it slowly died.
More of Rated RJC:Some noobs might be wondering, what did Rated RJC did? He was the BTB mod, and one night, in conjunction with another member named Truth and other one whose name I don't recall, took advantage of their spot as mods, went bizark and erased entire parts of the whole forum. It affected the BTB section as Rated RJC erased all the threads, all the BTBs. It took a while before the admins managed to recover them.
The BTB Mod Spot:It's like a curse. Jmay was a good member, a BTB regular, and when he became mod, it was practically impossible to see him in the section. RJC becomes mod, and he starts failing on the section and his BTB. The say the least, Anigma has been the most regular BTB, and there is people that still complain about his large absences.
The Next Big Thing award:If you ever win this award, you have big boots to fill. To the moment, there has not been a BTB that after winning this award has not became a big BTB. See the previous winners: BTW, CWE, SWA. Enough said.
My Booking system:I book on the air. I don't plan what's going to happen, and when I do, I the most I plan is 3 weeks, and half way I probably change what's happening. Some of my feuds created on the air were: HHH and Christian teaming up, WWE vs BTW and MVP and Hardy being co-champions.
Horza's BTBs:Have you checked them? They are quite unique to say the least. He doesn't writes matches, he posted youtube videos of matches from No Mercy videogame. It was a cool idea, altough to tell the truth, I didn't consider them a real BTB, it was good, but they were never going to
reach a TNA iMPACT, The Commencement level.
Old Big 5 concept:Boy did they hate that name. But to be honest, it was very real back then. It was used to refer WG, Anigma, XB, RJC and The Answer. You just had to agree with it, they were the morst dominating BTBs around.
New Big 5:Seeing the current BTB situation, with so many new BTBs, it's hard to point out the new Big 5 of the BTBs, but here are my 5 picks.
Weebo, SWA Anarchy GM, Leviathan, CMS, Xtremebadass. Anigma came close but he is not that active anymore. Wrestling God as well but he is just making his return. Jhar had kind of a slump with his TNA BTB but he skyjumped with the return of CWE. The Answer has been lately seen with the BTB Federations.
Lol, I remember that BTB, it only had one PPV(Starrcade if I recall correctly), and Peep eventually quit from all the posts telling him to make his matches longer, altough they were pretty long(back in the old standards, not the new SWA induced standards)
I also remember Kaedon and Montana making BTB(well, sort of)
