WWE '07
On June 25th, 2007, one night after the Vengeance: Night of Champions PPV, the wrestling world was turned upside down as tragedy struck the WWE. In an incomprehensible action, one of the sports greatest was gone. The action ruined his amazing legacy, and worst of all, ended the lives of his wife and young son. The news shook the whole world, and it was uncertain whether professional wrestling would ever be the same again. After some time to collect thoughts, the old adage rung true:
"The Show Must Go On!"
(OOC: This will be my first diary as I navigate the waters after the tragedy. I will start off in July 2007, with Monday Night RAW being the first show. Pro Wrestling Sim is the game being used and I have done the best I can to edit the "New Breed" mod by Tachty to have the exact roster and alignment going into the July 2nd RAW. There may be minor changes, but I loved this time period [2002-2008ish was awesome] so hopefully I do it justice! Also credit to various graphic packs (TEW and PWS) for the pictures I will be using. I will not be using wrestler pictures though, just for the sheer fact of how time consuming that will be. The next couple of posts will cover roster, events, and championships. Anyway, I've been reading everyone else's diaries and you all do such a good job that it inspired me to give it a whirl! Enjoy!)

The time period was very good and it was a couple of months after that moment that I started watching WWE. Looking forward to see your writing.

Monday Night RAW July 2, 2007 Dallas, Texas
(OOC: Welcome to the first show in my diary! My plan is to describe each segment/match on the TV shows with some detail and highlight important dialogue and maneuvers. I will always go over the final moments of a match and for PPVs, I will have more detailed match write-ups. I also may use OOC throughout to explain my booking decisions and give any extra reasons why I went a certain way [injuries, for example]. Enjoy and HAPPY NEW YEAR!) (OOC: I figured I'd mix it up a little and go with Kennedy. Lashley was so hot at this point that putting him against Cena right away was probably premature. I did copy a couple of the segments I liked, although I modified Orton slapping Dusty a little as I let "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan go in my save and he was the one who was backstage. Thanks to anyone who takes the time to read this!

Smackdown was on fire in 2007 and Edge was madly entertainment as the heel king of the blue brand you'd love to see get beaten. As for RAW, I like that you'll book Mr. Kennedy as Mr. MITB and I seriously hope he doesn't get injured this time

I like the OCC part and I also like the way you push Kennedy yet when in reality he lost the briefcase few weeks before, I hope for a good feud between him and Cena and maybe a big win for Kennedy. I also hope you give the lights to the women's division 'cause James, Melina, McCool or Victoria deserve a better treatment of the one WWE gave them at the time. Why don't you draft the SD women to RAW where is the Women's Title Belt?
