IFL - The Final Stand. Please read.

INTERNATIONAL FANTASY LEAGUE BOOKING
- BATTLE OF THE BOOKERS -


What is it?

IFL is a wrestling fantasy land in 2013. The IFL takes place in a world where every wrestling promotion has shut down. From WWE to the indies. All of them. The wrestling world was at a standstill. A small group of former promoters decided go get together and create a territory-like system. They created the IFL to govern over territories similar to NWA in the 80's.


Territories?

Each promotion must chose a territory. This is the boundry in which your promotion must run it's shows. Bigger territories may hold multiple promotions, while smaller may only hold one.

The accepted territories are as follows;
　
North America:

North East: Boundaries are Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Maryland and Ontario. All states and provinces within those boundaries make up the North East Territory (2 promotions allowed)

South: Boundaries are Virginia, West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi, Louisiana (2 promotions allowed)

Mid-West: Boundaries are Wisconsin, Illinois, Missouri, Arkansas, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Idaho, Manitoba and Alberta (3 promotions allowed)

West Coast: California, Nevada, Oregon, Washington, British Columbia, Alaska and Hawaii (2 promotions allowed)

Mexico (3 promotions allowed)

International:
Europe (4 promotions allowed)

UK & Ireland (2 promotions allowed)

Japan (2 promotions allowed)

Australia (1 promotion allowed)
　
The Promotions
Each promotion will consist of the following:
-name
-territory
-home city (Orlando, Florida would be TNAs)
-promoter: Your promoter is your rep on the IFL Board of Directors. Cannot be a currently active wrestler. Can double as your on screen figure head
-On screen figure head (picked after the draft if different from Promoter)
-backstage interviewer (picked after the draft)
-name of weekly show
-At least 3 titles including a Heavyweight. (Note: since we are running a territory system no title will be given the "World" status)
-a roster of 30 to 40 wrestlers (the original four promotions will take part in a draft to come up with their roster. Any new promotions joining after will pick their roster from available free agents)
　
The Rules
1. No using dead wrestlers. If a wrestler on your roster dies, it is considered proper to not use said wrestler after death.

2. Keep your storyline somewhat original. If you are going to rip off angles, make sure they are at least a few years old. I don’t want to see stuff that happened on Raw or Impact two weeks ago happen on your show.

3. Trading is allowed but don’t go crazy.

4. Talent sharing is allowed.

5. Your weekly show will be made up of 9 to 11 segments and must contain at least 4 matches. What you do with the other 5 to 7 segments is up to you.

6. Pay Per Views/Big Arena shows/DVD tapings, whatever you want to call it. It is your big show of the month. It will be 9 to 11 segments and must contain at least 7 matches.

7. No flaming other people or their shows. Constructive critisicm is accepted of course.

8. Scoring: Will be done by myself. It will be a weighted average as to not penalize people too much for missing a week here or there. But someone who posts every week will have a better shot at winning then someone missing a week every month.

Note: I don’t care about the flashy stuff. Videos and pictures are not what I am looking for!

9. The seasons will last about 4 to 6 months

10. Have fun!
　
Sounds awesome! Where do I sign up?
Fill out the following;
　
Promotion Name -
Territory -
Home City -
Promoter -
Name of Weekly Show -
Theme Song -
Championships -

and then as soon as you sign up, send me a list of 70 (at least) wrestling talents you want in order of how much you want them. EG; you want Cena and Punk as your top two stars, you want Punk more than Cena then in your list it should read; #1 CM Punk #2 John Cena

So, there you have it. Here's hoping this works. Cheers for reading lads. Any questions will of course be answered. This is basically my last throw of the dice on the Universe. This is what will keep me here, if this does not work out I will not be returning. I've lost all interest in wrestling forums but the one thing that is keeping me around is wanting to match and possibly eclipse 4reals by having a long-running and credited booking league. Please help me achieve this. As the unofficial mod of the booking section I am lifting the rule of only one booker per member and one booker every 30 days in the hope of achieving my wrestling forum dream. If you feel you can help this, sign up. It's not usual for me to beg but this is my final rallying cry. Thanks.

I'd be more than happy to do it if I didn't have one of my own.

When I'm off my phone and on my computer, I'll modify this with an app. I will definitely go through with this one, even if I have to carry on my promotion as a stand-alone, so you have my full support.

Fantastic

Hope this works out. I would sign up for it but as TWISB returns next week, I unfortunately can't.

Best of luck to you guys. Hope to see this work out. I'll be reading!

I think it's only going to be the three of us, the rest of the bookers are tied up in projects but we'll see.

3 is fine with me Adam

Sweet, thread will be made today or tomorrow.

Adam, I was wondering whether it would be OK to drop Leo Kruger, Hernandez & Eric Young from my roster?

Of course.

Ok guys I'm going to allow you to design your own post that will feature on the front page of the IFL thread. Make sure to include all relevant information to your promotion. Mine will be posted here shortly as an example (which you may or may not follow).

Territory Details
Of the first three IFL territories only one so far has been stationed in the United States. Residing in California FRONTIER Pro Wrestling (FRONTIER for short) is based in California. The main base for FRONTIER appears to be in San Jose. However there are a couple of shows lined up in the Stockton and San Francisco areas. Most of the TV shows will be held in San Jose with the first show being primed to be held at the San Jose Municipal Stadium. FRONTIER's first PPV which will be known as The Cold Light of Day is set to be held at the Stockton Arena in Stockton California.

Management and Staff
The official owner and founder of FRONTIER is Wrestling veteran Nigel McGuinness. After having his career cut short due to contracting the disease Hepatitis B Nigel released a film known as The Last of McGuinness which was created with helps by donations from fans. Using the money he made from the movie Nigel was able to sign on Todd Grisham and Shane Douglas to handle the commentary for the show. The backstage interviewer was then confirmed to be Jeremy Borash. As for the creative team it is said Nigel, JB, Shane Douglas and Bully Ray will be the ones making the decisions

Syfy Deal
Shopping around for a television deal in Pro Wrestling is hard. As normally companies want to see the product is successful before taking the risk and putting them on their station. However thanks to some connections made by Chris Jericho through his with the Robot Combat League Nigel was able to arrange a meeting with some of the heads of Syfy. In this meeting Nigel was said to have laid out his vision for FRONTIER to the heads and they were very impressed. Also mentioning some of the names on the roster including Jericho, Bully, Orton and AJ Styles Nigel was able to broker a contract allowing for a 3 month trial period with SyFy

Music
With the IFL owning a majority of the Wrestlers themes it is expected for many of the well known wrestlers such as Orton, Jericho, AJ Styles & The Miz to keep their themes. On the other hand some of the lesser known talents will under go theme changes. Some of the wrestlers confirmed to be debuting new themes include Dean Ambrose (Marilyn Manson ~ Sweet Dreams), Seth Rollins (Disturbed ~ Run), Kassius Ohno (Cervello ~ First time) and Brad Maddox (Madina Lake ~ Legends). As for the official theme of FRONTIER it is confirmed that Hollywood Undead have allowed the use of their song 'We Are'. As for the theme of the first PPV it is confirmed that Blue Stahili have allowed the use of their song Takedown.

No problems at all there Shady. I quite like your roster now that I've had a chance to look completely at it. Ridiculously stacked tag division.
