I don't remember the names of my first couple promotions. They were back in the 90s when the whole proboards thing was a new way of doing this little game we call "the business" - when everybody had them hard times. Lots of bad fed heads. I remember being in an old fed with my brother and the handler for Vincent Pryde (we've known each other forever) where the people made South Park avatars for people they liked. We were not liked. They had a guy named cheesy-time! whose use of scrolling text was so big that he won matches without even trying or shooting.
Although I believe my first fed, as is true with most of us here, was actually a RL WWF group. Everyone wanted to be the Rock, Stone Cold or the Deadman, but I picked Mark Henry. My promo against The Big Show was so greatly terrible that I remember its crux like yesterday. The whole thing was that I, the World's Strongest Man, was going to big swing him into the sky - and that they would play "I Beleive I Can Fly" as you soar out my ring. I found it clever; however, I was a silly child and did not win.

As some may already know, I started in UCI as L Verez, after being recruited by Emmit Kraus' handler on KiK(of all places). I was, and still am, big on the CD aspect of efedding. My big obstacle was shoot. I was so big on the glits and glamour of having an alien character, that, at times, I forgot to include the wrestling aspect of my character. So, later on, I made it imperative to work on my shoot, which has worked out pretty well for me, I feel. The biggest obstacle was learning to shoot as a face. You can't just be a piece of shit, because then you're not being a proper face. My character needs to be a role model, and must act and talk as such, so I sort of have her talk like a superhero of sorts, especially now that she's the leader of the Guardians.
Her run in UCI was fun though. Especially her feuds against Karlie Nash and Corey Black. I had more time back then, so I was able to write matches, so I made sure to write mine, and have them stand out. I feel like I'd be a better match writer now, because I'm actually training to be a pro wrestler, and I'm learning how actual matches should go, but I don't have time to be doing that as much. I'll see what I can do here and there though. I know I'm running on a tangent, but I did really enjoy my time in UCI. It's still my favorite fed to this day, although this revived NBW may trump that! We shall see.

My first fed was a place called Asylum Wrestling Alliance. It was fairly small by the end of her, but i enjoyed the place and loved it very much. I met some cool folks there and won my first title there too. This was in october of 2015. It eventually bit the dust the next year in january.

HECW sounds like the 1st ones we were in. Then THW, Fusion Championship Wrestling, my favorite memory was Ohio Wrestling Coalition, and then there were random ones after that. WCF brought me back into the efed world, then onto UCI, my own creation called New Blood Wrestling, and then my buddies started Action Wrestling. I float amongst NBW, WCF, and AW now.

My first fed I was able to be active in was the Supreme Federation of Wrestling, or as me and my friend Tommy Polo called it: Shitty Fucking Wrestling. It sucked, it was a match writing fed where you & your opponent would PM and talk to each about who wins. The better writing at putting their opponent over was supposed to get rewarded. Wins and Loses weren't supposed to matter. But in the first 3 months of me being there, I saw how fucked it was as the veterans consistently buried new people and everyone who held a title was on their decision making board.
First Role play fed I was in was Engimar Wrestling. Long story short, a lot of hte people there were from Mayhem Wrestling Entertainment and since most of them were writing matches and voted on matches, I became a jobber who role played. I'm good at finding suck ass places.

I was trying to think of my first e-fed. It's been about 11 years since I first, as they say, entered the business. My first e-fed was Southern Offensive Wrestling on Forumotion. I can't remember if I backed away or if it closed down, but my first character was Jonny Camaro (later Johnny Camaro). I think I was in one more promotion before I completely left forumotion for the MSN Boards replacement Aimoo. Let me tell you, good lord that was a dumpster fire. Sometimes it was a good dumpster fire, most times it was a bad dumpster fire. It was a forum host full of feds that had people right 10 000+ word promos with about 1 000 words that you, as the opponent, could realistically use against them since they rest was "off camera".
Aimoo, more specifically Showstoppa's Extreme Federation, is where I really consider my start in e-fedding as it was the first set of forums that I took really seriously. Also, they were the first times I wrote what I consider good promos. My SOW ones were trash. Around 2010 I really hit my stride with an 8 month Undisputed Title reign in a place called FWAR. That is probably my most memorable world title reign I personally ever had because day one in the company I won the hardcore title. Shortly after, I fought the owner of the fed and she put me over. Next month, I'm fighting in a four-way for the top title. Next month, I win the tag titles. Of the 4 titles I was able to fight for I won 3 and held them for 8 months. I ended up making my rounds to the most successful feds in about 2011-2012. Places like International Championship Wrestling Alliance, Florida State Wrestling, Network Pro Wrestling, and one more based in Kansas that I can't remember the name of. They were the most active and competitive. For some of them I was the favoured, in others favouritism screwed me.
Like I said though, Aimoo was a dumpster fire and almost died in about 2012 or 2013 when spam bots started posting some illegal links and photos on every board on the entire host. If I remember correctly, the FBI legit shut down the site and all of its forums for a couple of months. Like Aimoo.com came back to an FBI holding page.
My first Proboards fed, I believe, was Missouri State Wrestling. I really enjoyed that place. The people were awesome, the writing was better than I received from a lot of feds, I could see storylines taking shape. They did a good job of making it feel like home. Like with most feds life got in the way and it closed down, opened back up, closed down, repeat. I think 2016 was its last season, and since then one of the heads got run out of efedding due to graphic content in a promo and the other two got ousted by association.

I found it clever; however, I was a silly child and did not win. This post should embarrassingly include a part two because there's no reason to keep these things secret. Because of Smackdown!'s (PS1) ancient character creation system involved taking parts of real wrestling and incorporating them into a design, I made two wrestlers that a normal person would never have made. The first was a ninja. He punched people and kicked people; pretty wht you'd expect of such a character. His designs would later evolve into a trash-talking, back flipping a-hole of a wrestling that it became synonymous with me. My use of ninja themes to this day are because that original character - one I have employed in multiple early 2000's efeds with absolutely no success. Oh well. The second is too funny to keep myself. That aforementioned creation system also spawned a completely stupid character named "Street Dogg" who was D-X to the core, covered in hideous colors (hair and clothes) while also being a giant, goofy clone of The Road Dogg. He fought like a heavywight but had all of Jesse James's signatured + finishers. So he existed, and yes, also competed in awful efeds. That's all....

I've only held two heavyweight titles. One was a WHC with Northern Championship Wrestling and one was a heavyweight title at Jessica Silva's All Star Wrestling
