The following have been slightly re-written and updated from their initial postings on the old board.
- Based on game limitations (without hacks): No Amazons will compete in the FallOut match (royal rumble). To counter-balance this I will make the Championship Scramble amazon-exclusive and put it at the Survive & Conquer event too, as it falls inline with the theme of surviving the match (in this case surviving with your title belt in tact). It is important that women are equal in I:W, even if the game seeks to limit them to secondary players.
- Much like 'FallOut' matches (royal rumbles), 'Tag Team Turmoil' has been degraded from a PPV namesake to the name of a match/tournament which happens within a PPV. The same as how FallOut matches currently happen at 'Survive & Conquer' PPVs. In 2012 we debuted in Mexico with the 'I:W Conquista' PPV, which featured a 'Captain Falls 6Man Tag' match. In 2013 I:W Conquista will be home to the first 'Trios Tag Turmoil Tounament', which will be a series of 3v3 aka 6mantag matches. And because Conquista will focus on 6mantag matches there will not be a team-based 6ManTag ElimChamber match held at I:W Steel City ShowDown.
- Based on game limitations (without hacks): Gladiator will compete in the Steel Warfare (6way elimination chamber). Amazons will compete in the Steel Asylum (6way hell in a cell). May be easier to remember the different gimmick names for the two matches if we think of the specialist 6way variations as being "Gladiator Warfare" and "Amazon Asylum" matches, and any other instance of the match types being used (1v1 etc, as "Steel 'x' matches").
- As I was doing the Lucy/Bobby RP everything just fell into place in regards to lucy/keith/bobby/bwa world title/royal bash ppv. Current plans are to do a new format Royal Bash PPV which will have a pair of tournaments (King Of The Ring and Queen Of The Ring). And since we will have that, we no longer need to have a 'queen of the cage' accolade on the line in a match at Steel City ShowDown.
- Because we never found a fit for a MITB match in I:W season 8/2012, the PPV concept was passed along to ViralPro's staff whom evolved it into their own style with the 'Risky Business' PPV. In order to better pursue it's new direction, I:W will no longer feature a MITB match.
- In addition the I:W Abomination PPV is staying retired, and the Inferno/Flaming Tables matches outlawed. Lionheart doesn't want any more burn victims to suffer psychotic breakdowns like Ryan Blaze did. Do not fear, Fire fans, ViralPro will still feature these fire-related matches at it's Japan PPV X-Rated Warfare.
