Golden Glove Champion
PRIMARY STYLE
Not an overly large man, bugs uses his speed and skill to to lock his opponent in the clinch, usually landing a few strikes before taking them down to the ground. He is known to have very violent throws no matter the size of his opponent, he uses a smother tactic - trying his hardest to never let his opponent catch his breath.
TENDENCIES
A very cocky/demented smile usually never lips his face, even when he's taking an ass kicking. While he doesn't really acknowledge the fans he has been known to try and get into his opponent's head either verbally or by fucking around.
APPEARANCE
Compact, covered in tattoos. A bit stocky for his height.
CAGE GEAR
Short White/Dark Green Boxing Trunks w/ his sponsors on them, Dark Green Gloves,
ADDITIONAL CHARACTERISTICS
He's an uppity lil guy
ENTRANCE DESCRIPTION
"I got too many problems. Tell me how do I solve them
I could lose my mind or I can keep control
But if I lose my mind, I might hurt somebody, If I lose my mind
I MIGHT KILL SOMEBODY!""
The lights flicker with black and green lights as " Kill Somebody" echoes out through the arena. A few moments pass before Bugs pushes his way out from the back, his team at his back hyping him up, yelling at the fans in attendance. Bugs rolls his head around his shoulders, a bit of pep of his step as he walks down the ramp - his eyes never leaving the cage. He stops before the cage and lets the official check him over, Bugs hopping from foot to foot as he flicks his arms, loosening them up. Once the official has given him the all clear Bugs makes his way for the cage, stomping up each step with great force Before he enters the cage he looks out throughout the arena and lets out a battle roar as he stomps into the cage. Bugs then circles the octagon a few times, cracking his neck and knuckles as he does so. With an arrogant smirk on his face Bugs then backs up and into his corner
BIOGRAPHY
Small and overly aggressive, just like a Honey Badger. Bugsy "Bugs" Kennedy grew up in poverty and used his rough upbringing to inspire him to be something better, he would be damned if he turned out like his parents.You can take the boy out of the streets, but you can never really take the street out of the boy, leaving Bugs with an ego larger than himself. Don't take his cockiness as overconfidence however, Bugs knows exactly how talented he is and takes pride in showing it off.

Live inside the sold out Luzhniki Palace of Sports, thousands of people erupt when the lights shut off. Suddenly, guitars rip through the arena and shred the opening riff to Motorhead's Joy of Labour.
The drums come in and on the downbeat fireworks explode from the catwalks above the circular cage in the center of the arena. The house lights fade in and shine across the sea of fans ready for blood. At cageside, John Cardona and Freddy Johnsson are breaking down the rules of the cage to the UStream audience.
The bell sounds and here we go! Wheeler shows her overconfidence by launching across the cage. Spiral meets her in the middle and throws a jab that puts her weight on her back foot. She wings a wild right that he slips easily, and then he connects with a vicious counter that drops her like dead weight on the canvas. The ref goes to end the fight, but she waves him off. Spiral pounces on her like a mad dog. He wraps his legs around an arm and wrenches back hard. A split second later, her arm snaps below the elbow and the referee is pulling Spiral off her. He stands and walks around the cage. The ref is trying to get Amber to stay down, but she tries to sit up. Her forearm is bent over itself with a bone sticking through the skin. The crowd groans. The feed switches to the horrified faces of fans around cageside.

He regroups and comes back in hard, defending another takedown attempt against an opponent who has clearly done her homework.

They trade low kicks to start before Petrova switches to her patented speedy strikes.

Back up, Petrova works more strikes and Thompson scores the hardest hit with an uppercut. Petrova backs off to regroup, looking rattled but EMT won't give her any space and he fires in a few more laser-precise strikes. Petrova looks for a sloppy takedown as she pushes EMT into the cage. They battle in the clinch, but EMT fends her off easily and she circles off the cage, striking as she moves. The exchange blows, neither really gaining an upper hand until the break.

In what's the most evenly matched fight of the evening, Chambers misses a low kick in the early moments that looks bad. Raab comes in hard and tags her with a few strikes before staggering Chambers with a low kick. Chambers shakes it off, coming back fast and she fires off a flurry of strikes before getting caught with a low kick. Chambers keeps moving, continually switching levels, going to the head and then body to keep Raab guessing – it pays off. Chambers finds a home for a left hook, shifting the fight back in her favor. A jab scores and then a solid right and Raab's starting to look a little swollen around the eyes although she's not afraid to keep fighting. Raab nails a few heavier shots, but Chambers pulls away.

It's an all-out slugfest to start with Spiral showing the advantage, tagging Jackson with a hard elbow strike. Spiral misses an early low kick and it looks like Jackson may turn it around before Spiral scores with a second kick, pushing Jackson to the floor when he catches a counter. Half-guard for Jackson and he's trying to put his submission skills to use, jockeying for position but Spiral keeps him at bay. Jackson drops a few punches to the face and eventually breaks away, scrambling to his feet. Spiral comes up short on a return punch and Jackson catches his arm, turning it into a throw against the cage. He's avoiding the worst of the damage but he's yet to really counter. Spiral tags him with another well-timed strike and Jackson hits the floor, though he crawls right back up. Jackson shoots in, but Spiral defends well and pulls away. Jackson has a slight weight advantage but it seems more a detriment right now – he looks winded as they collide in the middle of the cage, battling in a clinch.

He grabs a leg and tries for a takedown, but Spiral hops and stays upright. Jackson tries to strike, but now it's Spiral grabbing the leg, and he sends his opponent down.

They engage quickly although it's clear that Spiral is having trouble seeing out of his right eye as his grappling seems mistimed. Chambers gets a quick takedown, but Spiral pops right back to his feet. They continue to battle against the fence and Chambers is playing a risky game staying inside Spiral's guard although she's able to scramble to top position and she peppers him with a flurry of strikes before rolling away, unwilling to press her luck. He bucks his hips, shaking the lighter fighter off him enough to shoot to her side. He transitions around her and takes her back and immediately looks for the choke. Both are near exhausted and covered in sweat, making it hard to keep her locked. She manages to turn and end up on top. The crowd erupts as she sends hard elbows into his face on his blind side. One splits his nose open and blood quickly smears over him.
Once again, her lighter frame betrays her as he pushes her aside and hip escapes. Both fighters are on their feet. Spiral's face is a crimson mask and he's smiling. Lara motions for him to bring it. The ref steps in, however, and pauses the fight. Boos fill the arena as he motions for the doctor to take another look at Spiral's eye. The Pale King runs through the motions of a vision test and then audibly tells the doctor to "get the fuck out of here."
The referee resets the fighters and restarts the clock. Spiral marches forward and swings, missing wide. It is obvious now that his vision is making it hard for him to hit the fast-moving Lara. But she gets cocky while going for a body shot. Spiral throws his weight behind a hooking elbow that slices across her mouth, splitting open her bottom lip and sending her mouth guard skipping across the canvas. She stumbles back into the mesh cage and then launches forward to the center. She spits a mouthful of blood at his face and begins dropping bombs, trading from his liver to his face. Her headshots skip off his guard, but he fails to take advantage as his counters are blocked or miss wide. But he's just not taking enough damage.
Chambers switches tactics, putting her shoulder into his abdomen and tries for a takedown. He tries to turn and loses his balance. She drags him down to the canvas. They scramble and Lara ends up with his back. She locks her legs around his midsection and goes for the choke. Spiral keeps his chin tucked and tries to to hit her with blind shots.
She sends one hammer fist into his cut nose and he reacts by protecting it. This opens his neck, and Lara takes quick advantage, sinking in a deep rear naked choke. Spiral won't tap. He refuses. He tries like hell to pull her arm away from his neck but Chambers has him firmly under control. His face turns purple and the lights go out. The referee breaks the hold and Lara jumps off the canvas and runs around the cage.
Lara Chambers defeats Spiral via Technical Submission (Rear Naked Choke) at 15:12.

March, 11th
"Do I look like a fucking cop to you?"
Rhetoric question. The hooded man wasn't actually expecting him to answer it. Certainly not while he had him grabbed by the throat, pushed against the wall in a dark alley. So imagine his surprise when the he barely whispered.
"Dude... that's... exactly what... a... cop would say"
He raised a good point. Not that would help him anyway.
"Maybe this can convince you then."
A serious and collected tone, every word spelled in such a calm and somehow disturbing way. He was trying to wriggle free, but every attempt was frustrated by the grip of his right hand tightening around his throat, cutting the oxygen supply. Definitely not a cop That was one of his last coherent thoughts, as he could feel the consciousness slowly fading. Gasping for air, he tried one last, desperate attempt to get free from that mortal grasp, digging his nails on his tormentor's wrist. Unsuccessfully. How did he get in such troubles? What did he do? And why this guy was now reaching inside his pocket, to pull out... A phone?
Using the left hand, he quickly scrolled his finger on the screen, putting the phone right in front of his eyes.
"This guy. Do you know him?"
Everything was blurry, but he tried to focus on the picture behind the curtain of tears clouding his sight. Yes. Yes! I know him! He could have sworn he screamed those words on top of his burning, aching lungs. But all that left his mouth was a death rattle, followed by a slight, desperate nod of the head. Much to his surprise, he felt the grasp of his finger loosening, relieving pressure from his trachea. He was finally able to breath again, avidly inhaling the cold night air, as he fell on his knees, exhausted, scared. Unable to think straight, he instinctively tried to crawl away from that hooded maniac. Obviously it didn't work. A piercing pain spread from his right hand, as his size 12 boot treaded over it, squashing it on the concrete.
"Not so fast. Where do I find him?"
He looked up at him, begging for mercy. His face was still concealed by the hood, by those green emotionless eyes, eyes he will never forget, were sparkling like emeralds under the street light.
"I don't know man, he hangs out in North Philly, try in some bar..."
A scream followed the unmistakable sound of his phalanx bone cracking under the increasing pressure of his foot, echoing sinisterly in the desert alley.
"Jesus man, my fucking hand!" He cried out loud. "I swear to God, I don't even know his name, I only made business once or twice!"
He must have sounded pretty convincing. As nothing ever happened, the hooded man turned on his heels and walked away.
"You could have killed me you crazy son of a bitch!"
He stopped on his track.
"Right. I could have"
He never turned back, covering the brief distance to his motorbike, jumping on it and disappearing along the streets of Philadelphia.
Later that night
Five hours ago, Ethan Thompson was in Atlantic City, inside his room at the Squires Academy Hostel, packing a few things for a weekend in New York City. On his agenda, a couple of dates and a lot of drinks, the best way he knew to blow off some steam after an intense week of training at the facility ran by the twenty-plus years veteran Jan Van der Roost and his team of trainers. He checked one last time his Twitter feed, mostly to see if his friend, Josie Barnes, made it to Philadelphia already. She was going to spend the weekend with Ethan's sister, Heidi. The two girls were starting to bond and that was somehow surprising, at least for him. Unlike him, his sister was so much more friendly, demonstrative, trustful. A tad too much possibly.
As a matter of fact, wasn't that the reason he was here tonight, sitting in a filthy bar in Fairhill, heart of the Philadelphia Badlands? He had to shake a couple of trees, beat informations out of a street thug or two, but in the end, he found what he was looking for.
That bastard who dared raise his hands on Heidi was sitting a couple of tables away from him, drinking a beer.
Ethan always had his reasons not to like the guy. Sure, if she was in Philadelphia, only an hour away from her brother instead of back in Helena, Montana it was, somehow, thanks to him. But as much as he loved his sister, he couldn't help but thinking that she was at least safer up north. Unhappy maybe, but away from troubles and a shady boyfriend who took advantage of the teenager's naivety.
Payback time was closing in. Now there was one last thing for him to do, before making his move: plan a way out of the troubles he was about to dive in.
Calling Josie was out of question. She was busy with Heidi, comforting the young girl. Part of him was still thinking that he should have been there too, with his sister, holding her hand, giving her a shoulder to cry on, showing that her brother was someone she could always count on, someone who would always be there for her. Instead, once again, he wasn't at her side when she needed him the most.
Just like last year, when she was lying in a hospital bed, recovering from the physical and psychological abuses she had to suffer because Ethan left her alone with their dad.
He listened to his instinct that time, and he payed the price. And he was going to do just the same now. Whether it was the right choice or the wrong one, it was what Ethan Thompson needed to do, no matter the consequences.
He knew exactly the one person he had to call. Lara Chambers. They met just recently, shared a few drinks and somehow they bonded. Ethan liked how she could listen without judging, offering support and advices without being pedant or trying to tell him what to do. He was feeling like he could trust her, and that was more than he could say about anyone else.
He grabbed his phone, typed something on the screen constantly glancing at the young guy.
"About time, you son of a bitch"
Ethan mumbled these words before downing in one sip his glass of whiskey. Neat of course. His target was on the move, clumsily standing up and doddering his way to the door. After dropping a ten dollar note on the table, he stood up and followed him outside, not even waiting for the change.
The street was almost desert. Good people avoid this side of Philadelphia, especially this late at night. As for the drug dealer at the corner... He would unlikely care much about what was going to happen.
"Hey, do you remember me?"
His left hand grabbed the young man's shoulder, forcing him to turn. No need to aim for the kneecaps. A fight was not what Ethan was looking for tonight, this was an ambush. The first strike, a sudden, heavy right punch connected to his nose. Breaking it. Blood started gushing profusely, filling his mouth, open in astonishment. Before he could reply, before he could even recognize Ethan, he found himself laying on the sidewalk under a rain of fists. His chances to fight back instantly dropped to zero. All he could do was trying to protect himself raising his arms. It worked. One of Ethan's punches crashed against his elbow, and even if he couldn't see his face, he could tell that he did hurt him. If anything, because he stopped dropping those thunderous on him. On all fours, he tried to step away. Glancing at him from his swollen eyes, he recognized that man who was holding his hand in pain. Heidi's brother.
At least now he could see the reason behind this assault.
More than the pain itself, more than the struggle to breath, the one thing he would never forget from that night was the sound of his ribs cracking after one, relentless kick. And just like that, Ethan Thompson was once again on top of him, landing fist, after fist, after fist.
Paul has never been happier to see the Police. They've had their issues in the past, but he thanked God when he saw those blue lights and two men in uniform dragged that man possessed away from him. He smiled even.
After that, everything went dark.
Continuos
Another cage. Once again locked in for doing the fucking RIGHT THING! Are you telling me that Paul didn't deserve it? He basically kidnapped a teenager. He shoot some half naked photos of her for God only know which purposes. He beat her up. Tonight I found out he was in some shady business. Color me fucking surprised. I told her. I fucking told her that this dude was scum. She didn't listen. She said she loved him. Love.
Bullshit.
Feelings aren't real. It's just chemical. What we call love, it's just an intoxication. Sooner it will be over. Leaving you with nothing but regrets. And a hole in our soul.
But Heidi is so young. She is entitled to dream. She deserves hope. She needs to be happy. Growing up in Montana isn't easy. Losing your mother is a hard blow. I know all about it. Watching your brother running away is heartbreaking. But getting beat up by your own father, that fucks you up to a whole new level. It makes you hate the man you owe your life to. The one who raised you. Your hero. And that's just wrong.
She is so young and yet so mature. So sweet and so broken. So delicate, so tough. A kid and a woman. Heaven and hell, two out of one. It amazes me how strong a girl of her age can be. How she can walk around with the most beautiful smile I ever saw. Despite what she went through. Despite all the shit life keeps tossing at her. Despite a brother who keeps failing at keeping her safe.
Maybe I am not that different from that old bastard. I keep hurting her. And without the excuse of being a drunkass. I feel worthless. Useless. Maybe she'll just be better off without me. Maybe Josie can be a better family for her than I will ever be.
Yeah, maybe I should just rot in this fucking cell.
Like father, like son.

Talking Unleashed / Re: JUDGING UNLEASHED 1
Last post by Mike - March 25, 2017, 07:01:03 PMAs Jax stated, we are currently the only staff. That will be an issue rectified by the next card. We both want to ensure there is full transparency. I know some feds are run by people who do not take part. Personally, one of the reasons why I opened UNLEASHED, is a dissatisfaction with other feds. So of course I want to write also.
By the next card, we will have a full staff of dedicated judges to ensure that no one is given an unfair advantage. But for this card, I thought it would be fun to allow everyone to have a say in who wins the tourney. I consider UNLEASHED to be a co-op fed. It isn't "my" show. It is everyone's. And everyone has an equal stake in it succeeding.

Archive / Past, Present and the future.
Last post by Fizz Raab - March 25, 2017, 06:53:24 PMThe day after her last ever wrestling match. Anaheim, California. Monday 17th December 2012.
That was it, the day of Fizz's wrestling career was now over after her win against Amy Marshall as she could finally spend a bit more time with her family, including her husband who's more known as a pro wrestler now which took awhile for people to accept and still are, considering his attitude he had at the time and she knew what she wanted to do for a living in the future.
There's no doubt in her mind she wanted to be an MMA fighter, always wanted to try her hands on it, but she knew at the same time, she'd like to spend more time with Mattheus and Konrad, even if he's away majority of the time, but while they sit in the sofa of their house, she says this to her husband Konrad.
Fizz Raab: "I want another baby."
Konrad Raab: "You do?"
Fizz Raab: "Yeah. I've been in the spotlight for way too long and honestly, I want to have another baby."
Konrad Raab: "But we've just had Mattheus."
Fizz Raab: "I'm not saying right at this minute, but let me explain. I don't want to jump straight into MMA right away because I don't have enough skills yet, but even if I want to, I got to find an MMA school, I got to find someone who would train me and most of all, go and do some Jujutsu classes too."
In a way, Konrad could understand, he felt Fizz did deserve to be away from the spotlight for a little while to spend time with him and their son, mostly Fizz as she just finished her wrestling career and Konrad speaks.
Konrad Raab: "What was it like to wrestle your last ever match?"
Fizz Raab: "Amazing darling. Like I wanted to put everything into the match against Amy and I did. I didn't care about losing or winning, just as long as I got respect from the fans who deserved to see me wrestle one last time, that what mattered to me."
Konrad Raab: "Sounds inspiring to me, although Amy called you every name under the sun."
Fizz Raab: "I understand you was protecting me, but I would've liked for you to worry about your own business rather than mine. Wrestling at least for me became a job like I was only doing it for a paycheck."
Konrad can relate a lot to her as he's dealt with that situation a while ago when he wanted to move on from being a TV star to wanting to be a wrestler since he was only doing it for a fancy paycheck. Luckily for Konrad, it's much easier for him to step into learning about the wrestling business because he had to work for the Starrdome wrestling school spot by defeating Angelica Monroe in a cage match.
Fizz Raab: "I know you understand me, but I want to actually be an MMA star now. I hear a lot of wrestlers coming back for returns after retiring, but I can't do it, not with you being a bigger name now and I don't want to get in the way of your career. I don't want our relationship affecting our work life. Just want things to be between me and you."
Konrad Raab: "Yes, I do get what you mean. I'm not a fan of these wrestlers dating each other while working in the same business. I admit, I did get turned on a few times when I saw you wrestle. I mean how couldn't I?"
Fizz Raab: "Oh stop it, but that's the same for me as well. So I do want to do MMA training, but at the same time, I want a baby too. Once I nearly got a black belt in Ju Jitsu, I want more than one baby, especially with a loving, caring man like you."
Konrad Raab: "Yes, I completely understand. I know you're a little down with my actions, but I'm still learning about this business, even if I enjoy getting my ass kicked around, I think I'm getting better at that."
Fizz Raab: "Yes you are. I hope I can do well in MMA because I really want to do it. It may take months or even years to get my first professional MMA fight, but I'll bust my ass to get there, putting all the time in the world to become the top female MMA fighter all around the world."
Fizz was really fired up to take steps into her new career, even if she wanted a break from the spotlight for a year, Konrad clearly accepted her decision and was a very brave and selfless one as well. She says this while Konrad gives Fizz a cuddle.
Fizz Raab: "I want you to make a name for yourself and not be known for being under Fizz's shadow in the business and I'll make a name for myself in MMA because we need to advance with our careers. I will become an MMA champion and you will become a wrestling champion."
Konrad Raab: "Yes we will. I'll run my mouth on every single wrestler and destroy them to even take short cuts to win titles, along with you wanting to have a baby, but to be honest Fizz, I want you to take Ju Jitsu classes when you can as a way to get yourself a headstart until you're fully ready to fight against the top names in MMA."
Fizz Raab: "Yeah, you're right, that's a brilliant idea. Maybe we'll look up at some Ju Jitsu lessons tomorrow together."
Konrad Raab: "You have to do that on your own. I got training to do at the Starrdome school tomorrow morning, but I hope you'll find the right one."
Fizz nodded as she accepts Konrad having to get up early in the morning to go to the Starrdome school to train as Konrad kisses Fizz good night and he goes upstairs to bed, while Fizz does a few stretches for a little while, excited of the possibility of moving on from wrestling forever and still be in the fighting business she loved.
She wonders if her dad and her brother will take to the news of her decision, but she knows they'll support her with anything, no matter what her choice of career will be as she's in an MMA mood, she went to the computer to check out some MMA fights to see what she could experience months, even years from now, although there wasn't many female MMA fights, it still caught her attention how different to wrestling was.
A lot more rules and discipline in place and her anger she has sometimes fits the sport she dreams of being a star in. She loves seeing the MMA fights every single second as she watched them until it was one in the morning before she goes upstairs to her bedroom, seeing Konrad already asleep as she quietly takes her clothes off to put her pyjamas on before she climbs into bed and places her head on Konrad's chest to close her eyes to sleep.

Having fun wrestling and MMA fighting with Konrad. Anaheim, California. Friday 24th March.
Unlike all the other times Konrad and Fizz argued a lot with Konrad's lack of ability of accepting anger, it's one of those times where they are having fun, throwing around each other and wanting to up one another with laughing and giggling in the garage they were in with their own little gym equipment for their wrestling and MMA training.
Fizz has been training really hard for her MMA debut and although she got the day off from training, she clearly wanted to have fun with her husband who she knew clearly he needed to have a bit of fun again as they throw each other down on the matted floor, punching and kicking each other, showing Konrad what Chris Richards has been doing with her since Konrad's been away.
Fizz's so angry and fired up in a good way to fight as she's had some anger problems of her own in the past when she was a wrestler. Overtime, she captured a brown belt in Jujutsu where she got there from attending all the lessons she went to and only needs black to complete it which she will receive once she wins her first MMA fight.
She's showing Konrad a lot of aggression, showing something to Konrad how much she really wants to win as she got some shots down, even if it got her frustrated at times.
Fizz Raab: "Why can't I knock you down?"
Konrad Raab: "Because you have no power. You need to clinch your hands into fists really hard and you'll do this."
Konrad shows her just that as although he's a wrestler, he's always attempted to knock his opponents down, but Fizz goes back on her feet and lifts Konrad down on the mats and tries to attempt to get some holds locked in, even applying the arm bar as although of course it's all in fun, it was a way of Fizz using her husband everything she's learned over the last few years since she retired back in 2012.
Fizz was so happy after being down in the dumps where she couldn't find any MMA promotion who would take her without James Shark being in MMA. She loved everything they were doing, even to a point of them fighting naked a week ago just to add some flair to it.
It made Fizz happy she's found Unleashed company to a point she felt ready more than ever and after two hour of throwing, locking in submission moves, Fizz caught Konrad with a triangle hold which Konrad hang on for a while before he had to tap as they sat on the mat for a while. After that, Fizz told Konrad to stand up as she did before taking him down as she snogs the heck out of him as a surprise and then lets go off him.
Fizz Raab: "I had so much fun with you."
Konrad Raab: "Me too. I was so glad to come home for this. Chris has certainly shown you a lot, hasn't he?"
Fizz Raab: "Yes, he has after finding out he's been an MMA fighter in the past. He really knows his stuff so I could see exactly where he's coming from, but he also said it's the first time he's training a female MMA fighter too."
Konrad Raab: "Wow really?"
Fizz Raab: "Yes. I told him how bored I've been at home with the kids not being able to fight, but thanks to you on finding Unleashed, I can fulfill my dreams on being an MMA champion. I want to be the best so I can be successful in both wrestling and MMA."
Of course there was a lot of lack of confidence in Fizz if she was ready to fight in her MMA debut as there's doubts written all over her face as anybody could say what she said, but not deliver on the action as Konrad left Fizz on her own for a little bit.
Fizz Raab: "Could I really do this? I mean I could be facing many MMA fighters who have lots more experience than I do. Can I overcome MMA fighters more experience than me? Could I pull off the upset? I don't know. I do the best I can because this is about proving myself if people take me seriously as an MMA fighter."
Konrad came downstairs with a lot of cans of Monster Energy drink as he reminds her of something.
Konrad Raab: "Do you remember these and remember this part of you in wrestling?"
Obviously cos of his diabetes, Konrad demonstrates what Fizz used to do in wrestling as he pretends to drink down the monsters along with spraying them all over the fans like on the floor and Fizz laughs at Konrad because he made her chuckle as she speaks after grabbing one.
Fizz Raab: "Oh yes, now I remember who I am. I'm The Fizz now known as Fizz Raab with my addiction to energy drinks and I said let's get fizzicle and people will get fizzed. People will fizzle out to The Fizzster and become champion of the world."
She roared in happiness and kisses Konrad's cheek purely getting her side of wrestling out of her, although this was MMA, but still was good for Konrad to remind her about what she was like and she drinks all the monster down like in the good old days as she does it a few more times until suddenly, they hear a baby cry on the monitor as Fizz speaks.
Fizz Raab: "I think it's daddy's turn to take care of Jasmin. I just want to do some punching in here for a while."
Konrad Raab: "Alright, sounds fair to me."
While Konrad goes out of the garage to attend to Jasmin, Fizz goes to punch on the bags just to realise some frustrations she has for the MMA tournament as she couldn't believe her eyes on the prize she could have as a rookie fighter as she feels very confident again as Konrad reminded Fizz of what she did and gets that part of her back with drinking down on her monster drink and pretends to pour the drink down on the fans.
She looks forward to fighting as she hasn't done any for quite sometime since she was pregnant a while ago so she punches again for a few more minutes until she takes her gloves off and locks up the garage with their MMA and wrestling training stuff as she leaves the garage to go upstairs to her bedroom to wait for Konrad. After he told Jasmin stories and changing her nappy, he came into the bedroom and they start making love for two hours before going off to sleep.
That was it, the day of Fizz's wrestling career was now over after her win against Amy Marshall as she could finally spend a bit more time with her family, including her husband who's more known as a pro wrestler now which took awhile for people to accept and still are, considering his attitude he had at the time and she knew what she wanted to do for a living in the future.

In case you miss the DM I wrote on twitter, I'm not gonna be able to have time to judge all of the RP's in full because after the deadline has past, I'll be going on holiday with my mum and my sister so I'm unable to do that.
Even if I did, I honestly wouldn't do it because not only I'm awful at judging RP's, but I would give everyone high marks since I'm not a very good writer. Just not a fan of people judging other people's RP's when it should really be the fedheads themselves doing it, unless I'm reading it all completely wrong and I misunderstood how everything goes.
The issue with that (and generally we WILL be doing the judging) is that Mike and I are both competing in this as well. Which means that we can't be considered fair and unbiased... this is the next best alternative to average everyone's scores/rankings. Make sense? Probably not.

Last post by Mike - March 23, 2017, 04:02:00 AMHello!
As we begin to ready for the deadline, we are faced with one small, but critical issue: Judges.
For this event, I want every player who posts at least 1 RP to serve as judge. If you no-show, you cannot serve as a judge.
Never judged matches before? It's easy. In fact, I have a very simple breakdown on how to judge matches. You can read it by going up top and clicking Judging Criteria under Player Guide. I will also be including the text at the end of this post.
The deadline is on Sunday, March 26 at 11:59 PM EST. You will have to read all of the player submissions and then, using the judging criteria, rank each character on a ten-point scale, with 10 being assigned to the character you feel deserves to win the tournament. You will not include your own character in the rankings.
I need all judgments by Monday night. Please message me using this board's PM system, or DM it to wadecrewe on twitter.
After I receive all judges, I will tally up the points. I will use this to determine the bracket (in character it is considered random) so that the top two point getters end in the final fight.
Q: What about characters that have 2 RPs vs ones with 1 RP?
A: For this event, we will not favor characters who post 2 RPs over those who post 1. If a player submits two RPs, consider them as a single piece of work when judging them against the other characters.
If you have any other questions, just ask!
JUDGING CRITERIA
Use the following information when determining your ranking. These are listing in order of importance. We consider STORY-ADVANCEMENT the most important indicator of what it takes to win in UNLEASHED. It is followed by TECHNIQUE and ENJOYMENT FACTOR.

JUDGING CRITERIA
Use the following information when determining your ranking. These are listing in order of importance. We consider STORY-ADVANCEMENT the most important indicator of what it takes to win in UNLEASHED. It is followed by TECHNIQUE and ENJOYMENT FACTOR.
QuoteSTORY-ADVANCEMENT
The most important part of any submission written for UNLEASHED™ is the story a player is attempting to tell. In UNLEASHED™, we want writers first and foremost. We want compelling stories. We want to actually enjoy reading the tales of our players' characters. We want scenes that advance a character's life, and not simply serve as a snapshot of daily activities. Because of this, story advancement is the most important aspect of any submitted writing.
Unless noted by the player, stories are usually not public knowledge, though consequences of events in a story might become public knowledge. For example, if a character commits a crime and is arrested, the details of the arrest might not be public knowledge, but the arrest itself would become public knowledge.
Any sections that are meant to be public knowledge should be noted prior to the beginning of their submission, to insure that the opponent and judges are aware. Though we do not require our players to write "promos" for their fights, if they do so, we ask that they make sure it is easily understood by the opposing player, and judges, which sections fall under the public knowledge category.
If there is any doubt of what is, and isn't, public knowledge, contact the player or administration.
TECHNIQUE
We expect our players to pay attention to editing their stories before submitting them. While we do put an emphasis on things like spell-checking and basic grammar, a few misspelled words will rarely be a deciding factor in a story. We also recognize that our players are writing literature, not non-fiction. Rhetorical devices are often used by authors to convey aspects of their characters. Such devices will not be negatively judged.
ENJOYMENT FACTOR
Sometimes a perfectly written story just isn't that much fun to read. First, enjoyment and excitement are not always interchangeable. A lot of action in a story could be exciting, but if it isn't written well, it could be difficult to read. Likewise, a story that doesn't have a lot of physical action could tell an emotional story that is just as engaging for the reader. While Story-Advancement and Technique are fairly straightforward and objective, Enjoyment Factor is dependent on a judge's preferences, and thus it is the least significant benchmark in scoring fights.

Waking up after a night of partying, Aria noticed her phone ringing.... A lot. Ignoring it, Aria hopped in the shower getting ready for the day. Her phone still ringing, Aria finally decided to see who it was.
Who could this be.... Oh no, not him.... I could answer him but.... Then again do I have too? I think I probably do need to answer him or he will throw tantrum.
Aria calls the number that continued to call her one after the other and then she hears a voice.
Look who decided to answer?
Hi manager, how can I help you today?
You know I do have a name right? I'm your manager but my name is....
I do not care what your name is; I like calling you manager so that's your name, to me. Anyway what's up? Why did you call? Or should I say keep calling me....
Yea about that, look I got two tickets to this boxing event in the evening, and I need someone to go with, come with me?
Why me? And didn't you already go to a boxing event last week? Find someone else you got enough friends.
Aria, Aria, Aria.... Aria. That was last week, this is this week, and I know how much you like boxing so I figured why not ask you? Come on, it'll be fun.
Ok, fine when? What time do we meet up?
I'll pick you up around 9 at night?
Fine.... Don't be late or I'm not going
Yea yea whatever see you at 9 Aria
The day goes by and nighttime finally arrives. Aria exits her condo, and enters a black SUV that her manager was in.
Well aren't you looking lovely today in that black dress miss Aria
Uhmm no, not interested.
Aria and her manager fooled around until they arrived at the stadium. Going through security, both were seated in the front row as they watched an on going fight.
Imagine you inside the ring? That would be something to watch.
Me? Don't you remember? I did fight like once
Oh yea you did! Two weeks ago And somehow you won? I wonder who Aria paid off....
Paid off!? I won fair, you are just jealous.
Jealous? Of what? I actually put some money on you so you did me a favor.
You? You put a bet on me!? And not even tell me? Some friend you are.... No wonder I keep calling you a manager.
Yea whatever, you know I heard about this event.... Well it's a mma event called Unleashed, but it doesn't take place here it's in Russia, they are still taking in fighters so if you are interested.... You know I could sign you up.
A mma event? In Russia? I never even been there, plus I don't speak Russian.
So? You don't have to speak Russian to fight in a cage, plus I heard the money is good.
How good?
Too good, if you want....
Ok sign me up
Wait what?
Sign me up. I'll go to Russia, fight in a cage and then come back with the money.
You.... You are actually considering doing this? I was just playing around with you Aria....
Well I'm not playing around.... Manager, sign me up in that event, it actually sounds like something I always wanted to do.
