Following what has been a slightly turbulent time recently in T.F.W.F., the e-fed closed out their year with their Ice Storm in Siberia PPV an inter fed PPV between T.F.W.F. and up and coming e-fed Siberian Wrestling. The culmination of the show saw the end of the one year feud between Dorian Wong and Sebastian Cross and the revisiting of a feud between Cross and Onlee in essence T.F.W.F. owner Ian called it a two year spectacular...

“It’s been an amazing way to finish this feud between Wong and Cross” said Monks “Tim and Marc really set a high standard in the T.F.W.F. this year with their feud and the character of Dorian Wong is just so deep and disturbing we just had to send him off even better than Death or Glory.” The revelation that Wong has been working with James Onlee was something that will no doubt send shocks through the T.F.W.F. world seeing as Onlee as a character hasn’t been seen since June...

“We went back to the linked story we did two years ago between Cross and Onlee...it’s what we do well. We build feuds over two-three years and always give the T.F.W.F. fans something like a thriller to read. That’s the best way I would describe working with Tim, Marc and Chad as rpers the last 3 years. They have helped shape and change the fed into something very exciting for the e-fed fan to read, whether they like straight up promotion wrestling or more in-depth fantasy writing, we have experimented with it and the results have been fabulous.”

Signing Sensations

At the tale end of 2009, T.F.W.F. picked up three big rpers into the fed, and the tradition continued to sign off the year with the return of Chad Onlee (The Reverend James Onlee) to the fed. With a beaming smile on his face Ian said
“Chad and I got into negotiations about 3-4 months back with this idea of his return at the end of the year. As an actual professional wrestler, Chad brings again a ring knowledge as we casual fans can only imagine. His story telling is second to none in the fed, but to have another professional wrestler on the books is a big deal to our e-fed game. Pleasure to have this man back.”
Onlee isn’t the only signing Monks has made, but he is slightly coy on the other...

“We have made a great signing in a guy simply billed as ‘Question Mark’...we don’t want to get into specifics...except chalk this up as A BIG MOVE FOR T.F.W.F.!”

Again pressured, Monks was revealing nothing...

“My lips are sealed, it’s an angle, but again we have gone out there and looked for the best of the best. Keep your eyes fixed on this!”

And the T.F.W.F. hasn’t ruled out yet more moves...

“We are in tight negotiations for a big move in June this year. I am personally over the moon we are even talking to this rper. Both parties are confident we can reach an agreement by the summer when his scheduled eases.”

Promotion

Despite the return of Chad and big new signings coming in some great news in the fed was also announced at the close of the year as Aaron Roberts was promoted to Board Member once more.

“Aaron stepped down from the Board a few years back to concentrate on life outside of fedding, which of course we all do. It’s a hobby after all. I said to Aaron if he ever wanted to come back let me know. I am delighted to announce that day has arrived.”

Aaron brings a lengthy 5 year plus involvement with the T.F.W.F. as well as a real professional wrestling pedigree.

“I had a chance to check out Aaron’s debut in a real ring a few weeks back and it was great, again like Chad he brings to this place actual in ring experience which can be invaluable. It gives our fed such a great mix of actual wrestling talent and of course the creative writers we have in abundance from English majors to film script writers to TV stars...we have got a wealth of diversity here in the fed.”

Roberts will join a board which already boasts a who’s who of successful rpers and creative forces in e-wrestling. Senior Board Member Sam “Duckman” Clarke of EFK.com fame, multi award winning rper Marq Abriko, former True Expert Kenny Hamilton and one of the rising stars in e-wrestling as well as host of the T.F.W.F. audio show David Valdez. Monks said this about the Board

“I challenge anyone to produce a more dedicated and intelligent writing Board than we have in T.F.W.F.. Honestly, I am blessed as a fed head to work with such amazing guys. They help make this place special and show a reason why we are going into our 12th year on the internet. We haven’t had a late show in something like 8 years and we have something like a 87% longevity rating of over 2 and a half years for rpers. I don’t think a lot of feds can compete with those stats and if they can, more power to them because these guys and the rpers in T.F.W.F. do it for the love of the game we collectively create. We have a saying about being T.F.W.F. for life in this place...it may sound corny, but we think it means just a load of like minded individuals looking to have fun in a creative hobby and looking to get the best possible experience out of it.”

In February this year the T.F.W.F. will kick off it’s PPV calendar with Night of the Revolution 10 one of three mini PPVs it holds a year where the prestigious King of the Deathmatches tournament shall take place. Considered by many to be the stepping stone to T.F.W.F. Main Event status. The future looks bright for once more for T.F.W.F..
