JOIN THE UWS Here at the UWS we promote creativity over anything else. Therefore we have two very important policies that we enforce very strongly. Gimmick Placement and Priority Originality Application With that said, its time to fill out the application. It would be easy to post a form to have people fill out quick applications. However, this is not what we have chosen to do. Instead, we want you to really think about your character and every question below. Send all applications to Underworld Sports Entertainment. They will be processed within 1 to 3 days. If you do not hear from us by then, re-apply or simply email us regarding the process of your character. Do not, I repeat, do not roleplay until you are told to do so. New characters will only be granted permission to roleplay upon the Monday following their acceptance. This, however, will all be explained in the acceptance email. Copy/Paste the following into the application: Handler Name: Do you want help with your gimmick (if so, ignore all the areas below and just send in a few of your ideas. We will get back to you and help you out.): Character Name: (For the above two questions some possible examples are; Power Wrestler, Martial Artist, Old School, Basic Brawler, Basic High Flyer, Technician, All Round Wrestler, Luchador, Submission Expert, Shoot Fighter, Experimental, Suplex Machine, Street Fighter, Technically Skilled Brawler, Daredevil High Flyer, Suicide Wrestler, Cheater, Pit Fighter, Mimic, Animal Mimic, Sumo, etc. You are not limited to the above choices as you can make up your own.) Alignment (Heel, Face, Neutral, likable heel, Face with Edge, Insane. If you can think of something else then go for it. You can even use the old Dungeons and Dragons Alignments if you want to explain what you mean): Character Description (What does he look like in and out of the ring? This will help flesh out matches involving your character. If the writers know what he looks like, there's a better chance that the readers will know what he looks like): Character Background (What is his past? This can earn you important points for character development early on.): Move list (At least 15 moves. Include all setup moves, poses, and signature moves. Remember to take into account everything you can be doing in the ring. Make sure the moves fit the character in every way and are balanced between low, mid, and high power. A wrestler with nothing but finishing moves in his arsenal will end up doing a lot of punching and kicking until he can wear down his opponent enough to perform one of his moves): Finisher (Finishing move/s, and description/s): Favorite Weapons (hardcore and gimmick matches will arise. So what do you arm yourself with?): The following are a couple of questions that will aid us in utilizing your character on the shows to the best of your ability. Last but not least are the two things that will decide your future in the UWS. First is the contract. By signing this contract you hereby grant 10% of creative control to the UWS. This allows us to use your character in storylines and on the shows where you may not have complete control over what is going on, but it will be for the best interest of the fed. If you choose not to sign a contract then you will be limited to dark matches and your own challenges only. No storylines you submit will be accepted unless you sign a contract. Do you wish to sign a contract? The UWS currently has a sort of "open door" policy. We give handlers the benefit of the doubt, so we don't require a sample roleplay. Everyone will be given a chance, but your wrestler will not be added to the roster until he finally makes an impact on the fed. (ie, roleplays) If the current roster reaches a certain point, we will have to cancel this policy, so be sure to check this page if you're not sure. All the above details will be your character's "starting" gimmick. We realize that wrestlers need to grow and change as time goes by, so you won't be held to these details. The section of the application that refers to how your character will respond to certain actions should be kept up to date with any gimmick changes. Eg, if your character becomes a heel, he may have a very different plan of attack for matches booked on the fly. And if at any time you want some suggestions as to character changes, just contact one of the presidents. That's it. If you are accepted you will here from us within 1 to 3 days. DO NOT become active on the fed until you are told to do so. Again, send the above application to Underworld Sports Entertainment. (if you are not using your default mail program, right-click and select "copy shortcut" to be sure and get both email addresses) Also, we post some information about all handlers on our Contacts page. Please note in the application if you want certain details (like Email address) kept off the Contacts page. |
