Title: Goodbye and Thank You
Description: The End of the NLCW
Rick M - December 23, 2009 02:39 AM (GMT)
I've been putting this off for a very long time, but I have to face the reality now.
The NLCW is going to close.
For the past year or so I've tried, and you've tried... WE'VE tried to keep this place alive. We tried because we have memories here. We tried because we have friends here. We tried because No Limits Championship Wrestling, despite being only an efed, means something to us.
But we also have to face reality. I have to face reality.
Rather than further tarnish the image of this place, I believe it's time to shut it down. It's time to say goodbye.
The final NLCW show will be Saturday January 9th. It will be six years to the day of the very first NLCW Avulsion. I think that's fitting.
Slamfest will go on as scheduled. So will the Plexies. I hope that we can see as much participation as possible for those events.
And then comes the final episode of Avulsion. After six long, amazing years, it will finally come to an end. We've accomplished a lot in the last six years. Even the fact that we managed to last six years is an accomplishment in itself. We should definitely be proud. All of us.
After Slamfest I will post the booking thread for the final Avulsion. I hope to go out with a bang and not a whimper. If you want to participate in the final show in No Limits Championship Wrestling history, look out for that post next week.
The boards are not going to go anywhere and neither will the website. They will remain for those who wish to stick around and chat and reminisce and read old shows. I may even update the site to include more NLCW history.
In closing, I just want to say thank you. I think I have had a hand in running this fed for longer than anyone else, but that doesn't mean for a second that I had any more to do with the success of the NLCW than anyone else.
No Limits Championship Wrestling was built by the roleplayers. It was built on a sense of community and the spirit of competition. And every single person that has ever posted on these boards has contributed to that in some way.
So thank you.
Thank you to every single one of you. It has honestly meant a lot to me and the NLCW has honestly meant a lot to me.
If in the next few weeks, you'd like to throw up a roleplay, or post a message, or add a comment or remind some of those who have left to give us one last look, I would really appreciate it.
See you at Slamfest.

It's the right thing to do, I think. It's clear that the people that made this fed what it is today have simply moved on from efedding. We've all just gotten too old, I guess. No one has the time anymore.
This place has given me some of the fondest memories of any online community. I've made a hell of a lot of friends here and I have enjoyed being part of a fantastic group of writers. I actually did my degree in Creative Writing based off of the feelings I garnered here.
It's not just about the writing though.
There have been some fanastic guys that have called this place home: Galen, Durst, Merritt, Bucky, Dom, Rick, Ethan, Stylez, Dazz, Castle, Violent A, Carmine, Remi, Tyler, AJ, Logan, Isaac, Maize, Coleman, Matt Arren... and many, many more. Not to mention all the chicks that have contributed to this place.
But, hey, I'm keeping this short and sweet. I love you fuckers to bits. You're a great group of people and I'll always keep this board book marked to keep in touch with you.
Few thanks:
Rick: You're the daddy, bro. You did all you could to keep this place open. One of the nicest guys I've met in life.
Dom: We'll still talk on AIM but I hope everything goes well with your wedding bro. You're a saint, man. Talented in about 35 different things too.
Galen: We need a beer sometime, you smooth bastard.
Durst: Great writer, great guy. Missed having you around these past few months.
Carmine: We never really did get chance to talk on a messenger or anything in great depth, but I know that you're a fantastically cool guy and I've enjoyed working with you.
Castle: You are the father of my unborn child.
Bucky: You're a crazy motherfucker but I love you.
Dazz: Never met anyone with as much enthusiasm for the game as you.
Ethan: You've always been a solid sort of guy that never bullshitted anyone. It's a great quality, bro.
Frank: I've never met anyone with such an infactuation with weed. You're cool as shit.
Stylez: More comebacks than Sinatra, but everyone of them was memorable. I enjoyed your time as Prez too, bro.
Logan: You're too goodlooking to be on here, you big damn model. Go fuck some hot chicks and send me pictures... of them, uhh, not your penis!
Tyler and Isaac: Two really cool brothers that I have a lot of time for IC and OOC. Hope all goes well at University, fellas.
AJ: You're a swell guy and a good writer. I've enjoyed kicking it with you on chats over the years and generally mocking people. It's been a blast, bro.
Thanks.
Now, let's make Slamfest the best ever.

I am very sorry to see it come to this . . but as long as it goes out with a bang and not a whimper. So following suit of the illustrious Chris, and thanks for the kind words pal . . I will continue with a few thanks, to the people that helped build and continued to build after I was gone . .
Rick: You're the man, and we were joined at the hip the whole time I was in the front office here, thanks.
Dave: My antithesis . . the other side of my coin . . anything I say to you, would definitely not be enough, so I say this . . thanks pal . . for everything.
Frank: A better feud planner, there is none . . thank you for the classics, I cherish them always.
Cyn: With you I was able to express anything I wanted . . . and had someone to bounce any idea off of no matter how perverted, strange or dumb . . thank you.
Chris, Galen and Dom: Three more talented writers I have never seen . . incredible, every time. Thanks for letting me read.
Phil: One of the building blocks of the foundation of this place, It was a pleasure.
Dazz: Always there to help keep the game going, just by participating constantly, it kept the motivation up for everyone, thanks.
Buck: You honored the history of this place a million times over, it didn't go unnoticed.
Durst: I always hated that I never had a high-profile feud with you, its a big regret on my part, b/c I think it would be epic.
AJ: Incredible guy, IC and OOC, a real straight shooter . . and a pretty good writer too. Enjoyed your stuff pal.
I am definitely sure I forgot some people and for that I apologize, It's been wild ride, but you know . . all good things and all that. Now, let's go make Slamfest incredible.
It's been a damn pleasure to be around this place with it's amazing people for so long, in any capacity, it was great.
So in the immortal words of a good friend of mine I will simply say . .
Au revoir.
Dominic Pericolo - December 23, 2009 08:59 PM (GMT)
I'd honestly hoped the NLCW would be able to make it for longer than this, but... it's obvious that everyone in general is just too busy these days to keep up with e-fedding, and that's understandable. It's unfortunate that we're finally closing our doors... there's far too much history around here to just see die off, and I really hope we can have some kind-of NLCW Archives available for those of us who want to hold onto the memories this place has for us. I know I definitely would love that... the NLCW isn't something I want to see left to fade away without a trace, that's for damn certain.
And Rick, you have all the respect in the world from me and definitely deserve it from everyone else... to run a fed like this for as long as you have in the condition it's been in is honestly admirable, and you did a damn fine job at keeping the NLCW afloat for as long as you have. Thank you, Rick... you may be one of the best leaders this place has had, and I'm sorry that the rest of us weren't able to keep up enough to see you lead this place any further.
Champ... know that I'll be busting my ass for Slamfest so that, hopefully, you and I can have our final farewell at the last Avulsion. You have always and will forever be the stick by which I measure my writing to. You've been a great friend and rival, and an all-around amazing writer whom I've learned a tremendous amount from over the years. Every match we've ever had has generally pushed the both of us to our limits save for perhaps the more recent ones due to how things have been... but no matter the result of the match, they're always among the most enjoyable, competitive experiences I've had in writing.
Carmine... don't stop with the NLCW, man. You're bound for greatness as a writer and I hope you know that. Your story telling has improved leaps and bounds ever since I first read your stuff here, and I think you should definitely seek out somewhere that can help you advance in the skills you've developed over all this time. It's always been a pleasure working with you, man... I hope one day we'll get to do so again :)
The NLCW has had me face a number of phenomenal writers that have pushed me, as a writer, to be better just to keep up with their level. Alex Jay, Logan, Durst, Galen, Frank, Bucky, Castle, AJ, Tyler, Reynolds... I'm sure I'm missing others, but if I have know that I don't mean to. I've faced a lot of people in the NLCW and all of you have helped not only push me with my writing, but push Dominic as a character forward... and Dominic's character means a great deal to me.
I know I haven't been the most active lately... a lot of things have been going on, some legitimate reasons and others just things that I've had distract me from staying active around here. When I do come around here, more often than not it's for matches, and at those times I honestly get really happy to have something to write. I take a lot of time, and at times it gets really hard to be motivated because of the inactivity... but the end result always excites me to see.
Thank you, everyone. You guys have been an amazing family online and though at times a good number of us smash heads with each other the fact remains that we've always been a community of writers who have pushed each other to excel, and I think that's what I'll remember the NLCW for the most. Some of you I'll still be able to talk to online, others I'm sure I'll fall out of contact with... but thank you all nonetheless. You've all done a great job building this place into what it was, and what it'll end as. Thank you all once again :)
Isaac Reynolds - December 24, 2009 09:32 PM (GMT)
I know i havent been around much but i wanted to say a few things to mark this sad moment.
I spent what i consider my best 2 years of efedding here and won my only World Title to date. On a personal note i'd like to say that without NLCW i probably wouldnt have reached such heights anywhere else. The people in this fed brought out my best with their support and true efedding spirit. That, i feel, is the real legacy of NLCW.
The fed has been through its ups and downs but one thing always remained the same, there was a never say die attitude that drove it forward. During my time in the fed, Rick M and my brother, Dan (Tyler), put everything they had into running this place to be the best fed out there and i firmly believe NLCW would have given any other fed a fight in the last six years.
There are so many people that i think made this place what it is and was, i'd like to take a moment to mention some.
Rick M: One of my biggest rivals when i was active here, it was truly an honour to face you so many times. You are a true legend of NLCW and one of the most devoted owners i have had the pleasure to work with. Without you at the helm NLCW would have gone under a long time ago, and i apologize wholly for ever doubting you. You are a true efedding person.
Dan AKA Tyler Scott AKA Brother: I'm not sure if/when you'll read this but i'm sure you know what a big role you played in NLCW's history. Also, as Tyler you were a mainstay on the roster for a long time and perhaps one of the best guys never to win the big title. I consider it a major dissapointment that we never got to have another singles match in NLCW, who knows, maybe one day in the future it still might happen.
Dominic Pericolo: You came back to NLCW when it needed you most and gave it the kick of having a true legend back. You and I were tag champions briefly and it is a big honor of mine to have been side by side with you.
Chris Champion: Another legend and an awesome writer, i dont think i ever actually got to be around you when you were writing here but you were always an influence and helped where you could.
Dillon Durst: Perhaps, in my opinion, one of the top 3 writers i have had the pleasure to work with. You were one of the first people to give me a big break in NLCW with Anarchy Inc and nurtured my writing in what i am today. I cannot thank you enough.
Esad AKA Chris Logan: As with Durst, you are a great writer and you were probably an even bigger influence on me. It's truly a shame i havent seen you around more and talked, however i still consider you one of the best friends i have made through fedding. Once more, i simply cant thank you enough for helping me through my time in NLCW.
Bucky: A good friend, and somebody who is always there to test you on occasion. A good thing, i assure you. I wish i could have faced you more often. You were always around and making the boards pulse, for better or worse they were always active.
Dazz: The man i consider as my biggest rivalry, we had some great matches and i think you brought my best writing out of me.
Frank: One of the single greatest men alive. I kid, but you are a great person and you gave alot to NLCW. Your record as American Champ is something i always aspired to despite my own success with it. You deserved the World Title as much as anybody.
There are many others i could mention but for now i'll leave it as that.
It's greatly saddening to see NLCW close its doors for the last time but i hope i will see familiar faces around in the future.
Dazz - December 26, 2009 12:49 AM (GMT)
Yeah Rick let me know what's going on (very much appreciated too man considering the hard times I gave you, Derek and Matt back in the day) and while I admit my final few years with NLCW weren't exactly the best or the proudest or the most fun, it's gonna be a sad day for me.
I'm gonna be straight up as always and admit, the only reasons I stayed the last few years was because I wanted to see what I could against guys like Rick (Isaac), Norris and others I never got chance to "compete" with (which I did against Rick, those were some straight battles huh?) and because I had a desire to try to earn everyone's respect after a long time feeling like my efforts were going ignored and my hard work brushed aside, something I still don't feel like I really got hence why I left when I did (that plus I lost my desire for e-wrestling, at least until I got invited by Orlando Cruze back to a place I helped set up).
I really hope Rick (Majors, boss man, not the other one, too many people called Rick in this place lol) does have the archive fully set up because I've wanted to have a record of some of the great matches and shows I've been a part of and if everyone gets that privilege despite NLCW being soon-inactive then all the better.
Couple people I consider rivals in the friendliest sense of the word, namely Ethan Andrews, Isaac Reynolds, probably my two toughest opponents other than Rick Majors (who I only had one match against wasn't it, World champ vs Cruiserweight champ? That damn interactive rp lmao)
Tons of others though that kept the place going and whether we had beef now and then or were cordial the entire time, long run it helped everyone I think and honestly, it's NLCW that's got me doing really well since leaving here because when I first joined back in NLCW's beginnings I was posting the usual short stuff in gyms and such and now the competition from here has helped me work more towards the story driven emotion that I'm now helping others learn to use in their own work. Again, that's thanks to the quality of people I was up against in NLCW.
Really not gonna list individual people like others did because I feel the same about everyone whether you're a stalwart like Dave, Derek and Rick M or someone who came in towards the end of my time here for only a few shows, it's the people in a fed that always make it. Sure there may be others who have terrible experiences of this place, even I did as did others here but I tend to dwell more on the fun and the good times because those are the memories that will last a lifetime.
As such, when I helped the original owner of NLCW run this shop in the very early days I made him a promise, I said the same thing to Rick last time I was here for that battle royal in the summer and I'm sure I've mentioned it on the forums before but I don't mind repeating it again.
When the day comes for NLCW to close, I wanna be the last one to turn out the lights and that's why I wanna (hopefully) be the first to put my name down for that January 9th show. Luckily the place I'm in currently is on Christmas break till January 4th so I'll be able to give as much as possible to the final NLCW show if needed/wanted.
Angel Andrews - January 11, 2010 08:54 PM (GMT)
Hearing about this I am floored.... As Justice I debuted here. Grew as an RPer. I had been pondering returning here. Yes. Even after swearing I would never come back for one reason or another.
Rick: You were one of the ones who pushed me to RP. Infact, if I had not had that match against you... Justice may have never become anything but a wanna be... instead of a member of the NLCW HoF.
DeeWreck: Damn man. I enjoyed working with you. You were easy to talk to. Ashame we both got so damn busy with other things. Thanks.
Dazz: Yes, we have had our ups and downs. Bitch fests and what not. Wait - I think I had those with everyone. Ha! Anyway, thanks for the entertainment.
Jason: The original graphics god here in the NLCW. Thanks!
Frank: The King of Mary Jane. I enjoyed your RP's from Frank working out to Frank getting a hummer. LOL!
Esad, AJ and Durst: You guys rock! I don't care what any one else says.
Buckster: Who would have ever thought that we'd end up working together. I am proud to say that you are my friend and I am glad to still be working with you to this day.
Many thanks to all of you for reading whatever I put out, whether it be golden or shit...
RIP NLCW

lol yeah, I learned to just shut up and let you rant in case I found a horse's head next time I woke up
But yeah, always been great talking to ya, ironically you were the first woman I ever worked and conversed with in e-feds, can't remember for the life of me whether we were in a battle royal for the TV or PPV title but I remember that being our first NLCW match back in the early days, talking to Brad and asking that my character helps yours eliminate someone before I get thrown out by someone else (I do still remember the surprise when he said something along the lines of "wait, you wanna lose your debut match, for a title?" lol)
That match though, whether I can remember what it was for or not, sorta puts us in some unique thing cause we weren't there from the very beginning like Dave, Derek and Rick but we were what, 3 weeks into NLCW's opening? So we were around months before Bucky, Phil and a couple others so it wasn't like we were brand new and fresh to the place. Sorta like we got that middle aged thing going on.
Least I got to work one match against you even if it was Delfino vs Angel Andrews and not the Dazz vs Justice I'd wanted for years but there ya go
Rick Majors - January 12, 2010 04:57 AM (GMT)
I made a graphic for my roleplay today and I realized that it would probably be the last time I used the NLCW logo in an image.
I remember creating that logo with inspiration from Jason Stylez.
I remember staying up late at night chatting on MSN or AIM with a lot of you guys.
I remember thinking about roleplaying during bus rides and car trips and pretty much every other time of the day.
I will miss this place, just like a know a lot of you will miss this place.
It's just an efed, it's just a pretend wrestling company on a message board, but I can honestly say that I love the NLCW.
Thanks everyone. And I mean that. Everyone. Every single one of you guys made this place what it became and every single one of you deserves a pat on the back and a thank you.
If you ever need to find me, I'm keeping the boards up, but you can also email me at rmoldovanyi@gmail.com.
I'll have the last show up sometime tomorrow if all goes well.

Rick M - January 12, 2010 05:06 AM (GMT)
Wow... I forgot that "Rick Majors" is member number three in this place!
Dazz - January 12, 2010 09:10 AM (GMT)
Hell yeah and I'm number 7, which is ironic since it's always been my lucky number
But yeah, like you I thought about rps and such a lot.
I still remember sitting in work once having the entire place to myself all weekend, listening to one of the bands rehearsing (worked in a rehearsal place at the time) and putting on a Slayer cd I'd bought that morning while I wrote the match between myself and Chris Champion for the World title at All Hallow's Eve 2004 using a pen and shitloads of paper.
Once or twice I'd even dream up an idea and have to immediately make notes upon waking so I wouldn't forget, notably that Delfino rp I wrote against Paul York for the Road 2 Slamfest tournament.
Crazy times but pretty sure we might not be alone there Rick.
Frank Merritt - January 13, 2010 12:09 AM (GMT)
im going to miss this place. this was the place that i called my efed home. Frank was a bit player before i came here, muscle for Ash in the Flock. then after Dee-wreck made me in that feud, my stock took off.
im proud to be the first and only 4 time American Champion. ill never forget this place.
im not going to list off everyone who i had good memories of/with. there's no way i can. too many people to remember.
i will say this; deewreck, you made me here man. coulda picked anyone but you chose me for that feud and i thank you. it was a blast working with you.
and eazy, my boy, wherever you are.....get ahold of me you fuck....
ill check in from time to time, but im gonna miss this place...

Dominic Pericolo - January 13, 2010 02:09 AM (GMT)
I know I said my goodbye last month, but... with the end of the NLCW actually upon us in just a day's time now, I can't help but say some final words myself, too.
Often times, when the right song comes on on the radio or I'm just in a creative mood, I get to picturing this place and picturing doing things with Dominic's character and getting a lot of great ideas that I ultimately either forgot, or adapted into my pieces. Having such a profound impact on my way of thinking thanks to a single character is something very special to me, I spent years developing Dominic into the character he is now... and I'm very happy to give him an ending that, win or lose, I feel will be absolutely perfect.
In many ways, I'm glad it's all over now. I've led this character through so many years of development that it was feeling about time to finally bring things to a close, and more than anything I wanted to do so on a high note. I feel that I've accomplished that... and honestly, I couldn't think of a better place to have done it in.
I've made a lot of friends along the way here, and I know for certain there've been a fair few bridges burned... be it purposefully, accidentally or otherwise. I know for certain I made a fair few detractors during my run as NLCW's president, but... in the end, I think I did a good job there as well. Regardless of how I did, though, I know it was a tremendous honor.
Just being able to have competed in the final match of this place, against someone as important to it as Rick Majors... I couldn't think of a better way for it all to end. Like Frank, I could spend my time making a list to thank everyone who's helped me get here along the way, but there would simply be far too many to list... too many people I've learned from, grown because of, and had amazing competition with.
I'm going to miss the NLCW. As of recent it's been a slowed down shell of its former self, but... it still represented something for me that made it a place I'd always love to come back to. For me, this place made Dominic Pericolo as a character, and it pushed me farther as a writer than anywhere else had ever done before. In many ways, that was because of the fact that almost all of us considered this a community of writers... I think that helped appeal to a lot of us, too.
Writing for the love of writing. NLCW's core value was just that... not centered around title reigns or wins and losses, not centered around egos or grudges or whatever else may have interfered along the way... the base point of the NLCW was and, at least in my experience, has always been the simply act of writing for the love of writing, and that will be the point that I will always remember it for, too.
Thanks to all of you for the past near-five amazing years. I've grown more as a writer here than I have anywhere else, and I have the lot of you to thank for it. This place meant the world to me... it's incredibly sad to see it go, but I definitely won't forget it for what it's done for me as a writer :)
Enigma - January 19, 2010 01:07 AM (GMT)
Wow, where do I begin? 6 years and I was apart of this place for 5 of them. I would say before coming to NLCW my character was nothing more than the normal cannon fodder you see in some places, the hardcore/extreme title rankers.
I came here and thanks to Dave and Derek I was given a chance to push my skills.
Rick/Derek/Troy: I may of clashed at times with one or all three of you but you all made sure I was never under used.
Dan: We clashed, we argued and we created great ideas. Without your permission I woulda never have been able to pull off the Projekt Mayhem angle.
Cyn: we went from hate to friends, today i am honored to call you my friend.
Easy/Kyle/jay: Three guys I would call my brothers.
Dazz: What can I say, you pissed me off at times and challenged me at others. Glad to have you as a friend.
Franklyn: The feuds we had, well the bloodbaths. LOL were great and I am glad to have you as a friend and remember when you die i still get your body to bury you under my pot plants.
Josh: My greatest rival ever and main man.
Rickers: Friend, Saint, Brother. Nothing more can be said about you. We tore the place down at times and ran the place at others.
Champion/Dom: Never really had chances to work with ya both but woulda loved it.
Anyone else I will forget: thanks for dealing with me.
OH
and Summer McCoy: F U BITCH!!!!!
Dazz - January 19, 2010 08:56 PM (GMT)
lol thanks, you pissed me off a lot too but as you said, other times we'd get on like friends. Either way, as before, it's all been fun
It's kinda funny though but as I mentioned before I think, I personally requested Brad has you beat me to get into that World title match at WWC 2004 cause I figured you had potential and needed that chance and still surprised it took you a few years to get close to main eventing here. No idea what happened there but either way, whether we vented about each other or sung each other's praises, all helped us grow as rpers and people.
Oh and I've been asked by "Enigma" Rayne Young if you want a match against him because, in his words...."I wanna beat that ball bag Bucky Skylar or however you spell it for stealing my nickname and being a douche". I'd love to see it personally considering he's talked for years about wanting to "kick your ass" as he puts it so...
apologies if I've taken this whole thing off topic but yeah....hope the last Avulsion goes up soon cause it's like we all know NLCW's gonna be just a memory but it kinda feels bad to me that we're not getting that final chapter out the way before we respectfully put this place to bed and glance over the Archives reminiscing.

Honestly, I'm waiting for the final match to be written.

Yeah, I've got the final match under control right now, should be done today. There were some delays waiting on a result to be given to us, it's just when it was finally given it was given at a bad time for me where I basically hit a long patch of days I knew I wouldn't be able to write during because of my own work schedule and everything.

There were some delays waiting on a result to be given to us, it's just when it was finally given it was given at a bad time for me where I basically hit a long patch of days I knew I wouldn't be able to write during because of my own work schedule and everything. |
Hindsight's a funny thing cause if I'd have known I wouldn't have started an rp for a major title defense till 2 days before deadline (whole 2 weeks to post it I know, lazy fucker lol) and you'd said you had work piling up I would've tried my hand at match writing for this place again if it was your match with Ricardo, given it the usual two endings business.
Dominic Pericolo - January 21, 2010 03:40 AM (GMT)
Yeah, hindsight is something awful alright. Really should have done the two-ended thing, I just felt like it'd come across better if I wrote the match straight to the end, rather than have a cut-off point where it splits. But, with that said... yeah, hindsight says I should have just gone dual-ended, so my apologies for that.
As I said, match should be completed tonight. I just got out of class and have to head back home, but when I get there I'll wrap up work and send it in. Again, sorry it's taken so long, but I know for certain it's going to be worth it.

Well... I hate to see this, but I trust Rick in the choices that he makes, especially when it comes to the NLCW.
I've tried so hard to come back... but life just always seems to find its place in front of hobbies that I truly enjoy. I'm going to miss this place like crazy! I've got so many fond memories here. All the people that has came and gone, and all the great SL's that we've all came up with over the years would make WWE and TNA stroking out checks to all of us. (I'm still convinced that Randy Orton stole my gimmick) hahaha.
Kyle and Esad... you guys are my brothers. Kyle really helped me out as far as finding my creative juices, and when Esad and I got paired together in the Random Roulette tourney... I found another great guy that I can call a buddy.
I remember when I first joined I was so scared of Chris Champion hahaha along with Deewreck and Ricky. I almost didn't join but I'm so glad I did. If you were ever a member here, you had no other choice to get better. So thank you all for that.
Champ... you are one of the greatest writers I have ever read. You truly are a talented man with the pen and keys my friend.
I hope to stay in touch with all of you. I love looking back over my time here with all of you.
Rick, Dee, and Tyler... thanks for making this place so fun for everybody, and letting me be me. You guys were always open to SL's involving my char, and you ran a top notch place for all of us to come and have a good experience and a lot of good laughs.
Isaac, thanks for your kind words in your post. That means a lot that you took the time to mention that, and anything I did was just a shove in your back to push you to what I knew you could be.
Tricky Ricky... you are the SL's mastermind man. Our fued was nuts man! One of the greatest build up, matches, roleplay battles I have ever been in. Thank you.
Bucky... thanks for holding my hand when I was a newbie here. You showed me the ropes man, and we had some great times. Hit me up anytime bro... and good luck with family life.
Frank... stay stoned bro. hahaha. You're a lot nicer when you're blazed out of your mind haha.
Dom... you brought the best out in a lot of the people here. You're a great guy, with great ideas. I hope you get what you deserve out of life.
All the Saints and Anarchy Inc. members... what a blast! Those stables made my char. what he was here, and thank you for all of your efforts in making us one of the most accomplished gangs in NLCW history!
Thank you all for kicking my ass when you did... rp battling with me when you did... pushing me as hard as you all did... and always being here whenever real life seemed to be weighing me down. I'll always relate my college days with this place, and maybe even blame it for making me miss too many classes to remain competitive here hahaha.
You all can contact me anytime.

Dazz - January 21, 2010 12:15 PM (GMT)
Jay, same as with Bucky man, despite our differences it's been a blast and you (along with Norris and Kyle) were one of the few I'd never had a match with and I'm glad we did but I would've preferred it to be Dazz vs Durst one on one with a huge build with NLCW Original vs NLCW New err....something lol
Shame it ended up being Delfino vs Durst instead with barely any build coming off Road 2 Slamfest but oh well.
As I said though, disappointed I never got to go up against Norris or Kyle (Kyle especially because we've been booked against each other a shitload of times but every time it happens either one of us no shows or one of us leaves the fed before it happens so never got the battle people deserved) and especially disappointed that there was never a Dazz/Pericolo match, even though we planned one
I'd love to hear what the newer people from 2009 (Carmine, Jean and others) think too cause despite being here a short time, surely they got some memories or thoughts of the place too, can't leave it to the old timers to reminisce

I just wish I had the time. Sad to see this place go. I mean Rick and Champ ive been effedding with you two for 12 years now and thanks for all the fond memories.
Dazz- Thanks for everything man despite what everyone says you dont stink that bad lmao.
Cyn - Thanks for all the angles we have done together I wouldnt have made it as long as I did with Ryan without Justice.

Honestly a shame you never got the World title though.
Alex Jay - January 29, 2010 01:42 AM (GMT)
Oh my God...I really can't believe this is happening...I feel so terrible that I was not able to contribute in some way, I kept putting NLCW off for later, and its true, you really dont know what you have until it is gone. I can honestly say that being here these past six year has been an incredible experience, and I loved each and every single minute of it. Despite the spats and the sometime bickering (and me acting like a diva from time to time), you guys truley are my wrestling family. I have forged bonds here with some of you that simply can not, or will not be broken. And yes...I got a list as well
Carmine: Thank you so much for resparking my competitive nature and helping me rediscover how great I can be when I want to. Wherever you go, get ahold of me cause I'd go just to job again
Derek: Thank you for putting up with me at times, and for simply being there to listen when the fed or the real world had my by the balls. You are a class act man and dont let anyone ever make you think otherwise.
Esad, Kyle, Jay: We WERE the Clique, and as distant as I was at times I could not ask for a better group of buds to have my greatest run with.
Dom/Norris: Probably the nicest efedder I have ever come across. A real gentleman and possible saint walking earth. Thanks for all the good times man and for being a friend here when I was sure I was out of em.
Chris: What can I say man? You were always the champ despite who had the title. If you ever get around to writing actual novels (which you should) Ill be first at your signing with a copy of your book in one hand, and a pint in the other, youre a great guy and I honestly dont think I can really muster up something bad about you to say and mean it. You've been a great guy and a good friend and I don't care if you did sleep with my ma. Thanks for everything.
Bucky: The Joker to my Batman, thank you for all the duels and times waxing comic intellectual. Ive known you for as long as I can remember now and you are practically family at this point.
Matt Arren: Thanks for giving me the second chance that made me one of the names of this place...even if it was just a minute.
Frank: One of the funniest cats I've met, no matter the convo you always made me grin brother, god bless you brother.
Dave Mc: Without him, Id still be rping for some half-efforted angelfire fed not realizing my potential. If this were real, Id owe my career to ya Dave. Youre a great guy, and an even better friend.
Rick: You are the man, I cannot articulate properly how much of a soldier you are or how much I appreciate everything you've ever done for me or this fed. Thanks for the late night msn sessions and the great laughs. You are without a doubt the godfather of efedding and rightfully so. Thanks so much Rick.
Im sure Im forgetting someone, and if so I'm sorry. I want to thank you all so much for making ewrestling fun, making what was essentially homework at times seem like the greatest thing on earth. Im so sorry I didn't try as hard as I could have at times for you. As I get up there in age and become more of a grown up, I keep putting aside the fun things for things that are supposed to be fun but aren't. I'm sorry guys, but I wish you all luck with the future. May God bless you all and keep you in his heart. Thank you all so much. Hopefully our paths will cross again down the line somewhere. Until then...

Jason Stylez - February 7, 2010 12:49 AM (GMT)
I know its late, but I know the DIE HARD NLCW Guys will check this for months on end. I hear the news today and I can honestly say I shed a tear. . . . . I know I'm one of the few that came back with Brad who created the NLCW.
Brad had a way to band good talent to take his projects off. Brad was bad at seeing them thru the end, except ICW. I can't help but be sadden. I know the last few years I couldn't be around like I would have liked.
MY EMAIL IS: texasboundndown@gmail.com and my yahoo is txmaninblack27
PLEASE GUYS LOOK ME UP!
Okay, this is taking time to really sink in and I look forward to reading the last Avulsion cause I know it will be memorable. . . wow this really hurts more than when the uWo closed, and thats saying ALOT.
By far, the best array of pure roleplay talent ever assembled. You take the uWo talent that followed: The Prophet, Alex Jay, Jason Stylez, Ethan Andrews, Enigma and you add in Brad's RWF buddies then you add in Rick's MWF then alot of new comers and thats what you got, the fed those three always WANTED to be. Now I don't know the new faces as much as the old so I apologize if I do not recognise you off the bat.
Derek: Wow, from GOPLAY and WCWF and ANGELFIRE and UWL its been a long journey and we always seem to find each other. Started as enemies and ended in E-wrestling BFF's lmao, for lack of a better phrase. You and I have done alot in this business on our own and together. I am glad to have known you and hope to for the rest of my life, bud.
Bucky Skylar: Didn't think you'd make number 2 huh? LMAO Bucky and I have had so many conversations on ims it aint funny. He was a key part in the uWo's transition when my time grew shorter and shorter in stepping up as the big dog, and I will always thank him for that. He brought things to the table that I had never thought of, and we made it work quiet well. And yes if calculated you'd be a multimillionaire in real life lmao
Josh aka Alex Jay: You and I have been close like Derek. I'm on one side of Texas he's on the other lmao. You have really grown as a writer and I am proud to have had any influence in that creative growth at all.
Rick: The one that I rubbed with most here. A long, long road alot of cussing matches but it was all for the best of the NLCW and the man that helped take over when I couldnt do it anymore. I left the fed in great hands thats made it lasted this long. Thank you for everything brother.
Dazz: Your like the annoying kid in the group lmao to say the least but a great guy and you mean well. Good luck in everything you do.
Cyn: Wow, only 120 miles away and we never met lmao its amazing. You are a creative genius and deserves the credit for what all you did behind the scenes, thanks.
Guys its been fun and I hate to see it go but at least we gave it our all.
Dazz - February 12, 2010 04:18 AM (GMT)
lol trust you Dave
But yeah, I have to thank Brad above and beyond anyone else in NLCW because of the opportunities he gave me. I mean, allowing me to step up as a writer when he needed shows helped with and promoting me to replace Jack Frost as his number 2 guy was cool enough but allowing me to put ideas across and book new guys (at the time) to this fed like Bucky and more, just everything he did and said was classy on a business end.
Personally, the guy was a riot and a great friend and we helped each other through a lot of personal stuff, especially in his darkest days.
It seemed he loved not just pro wrestling but also e-wrestling as much as I did and that's why we clicked, he always wanted to be involved in the game, whether it was the stuff before I met him or setting up NLCW, helping me run CWF or trying to create several of his own feds. Champ said my passion helped keep people going and set a bar? If he'd known Brad the way Dave and I did, he'd have said the same about the only guy I know to own every Pantera record even going back to their very first vinyl release in 83 (still remember the day I teased him about seeing Damageplan live and him being pissed off cause I saw Dimebag and Vinnie Paul on stage and he never did plus the times we spent discussing Dimebag's murder)
When I heard NLCW was ending, I'll be honest, despite Brad telling me how much he'd grown to hate this place a couple of times, I still wanted him here since he was the man that created it, whose vision was continued even if it was in name only and not in the ideals he laid the foundations for.
He only ever got pissed off when that guy ("Hawaiian" Joe Kanai'kas I think, not sure if I got the spelling right though) kept using bad language in rps despite being asked not to, other than that Brad was always the guy to turn to for advice or just someone to banter with. Not sure what happened to him, haven't had communication with him for several years but I miss him like crazy.
Brad, wherever you are.....I'm raising a toast for ya. Thanks for everything.
It's ironic though, Dave said I was annoying and in the early days I was, despite my position helping with the shows as I mentioned, the arguments I got into and my actions sometimes were inexscusable and I've said NLCW helped shape my rps into being what they are now but it also helped shape my emotionally to the point that somehow I'm seen as a mentor and even got the biggest compliment ever last night from a guy I respect a great deal, the former X-Net Demon who informed me that according to him (and I quote): "you're one of the best roleplayers out there on the e-fed scene, and your info could help shape quite a few people", which is now leading me onto a mentoring role on how to approach writing rps, especially since I'm always being asked for advice anyway lately.
That's not to brag, just to say thanks for the competition here that set me on the path to being that. Sure, I've continued that elsewhere since I left here but the seeds were planted right here on these very forums so again, thank you all.
Aiden Miles - May 3, 2010 07:58 PM (GMT)
I'm not sure who will or who won't remember me, but I had some fun times here in NLCW/LCW. I didn't really do much outside of winning the LCW title, but I'll remember this with great fondness.
I only just heard about this place being closed and thought I'd give you guys a massive congratulations for what you made this place. Seriously some of the best writers I've come across in this game, wrote here, and from the bottom of my heart made me a better writer through it.
Hardcore Hendrick - May 7, 2010 10:34 AM (GMT)

Derrick Lambert - November 5, 2010 06:20 PM (GMT)
In and out and out and, I've been here, gone and back again, never was the strongest role player here, hell I hardly ever rp'd creativity has left me. But to you yeah all of you, I know you all still read this.....If I had time I'd love to bring this out of the grave, but the question is how much time do I have? I work and play wow now possibly on breaks and in between calls I could but who knows, but I'm with Alex Jay...I'm now
Sugar Shane Perry - November 8, 2010 05:28 PM (GMT)
Sup to all the NLCW people!
I can honestly say that other than running my own fed briefly. Never did I have more fun and feel more challeneged than to work with each and everyone of you roleplay battling and simply try to out-creative one another. Was a blast and I never did roleplay after I left here.
Thanks to Rick, Derek for giving me the opportunity to work with them in running the fed for the brief time I had maximum time to do so.
Great NLCW/LCW memories I had here. Miss all of you even though at times some of you guys hated me for being quite selfish in terms of me wanting the spotlight for my character "Sugar Shane Perry". But I think we all did for our characters when we fully got involved with what they did and what storyline you would want them to be involved in.
Good to see some people still bidding their farewell on here. Not gonna run down individually each person and how much I loved and respected them during my time here. They know who they are.
Also with Alex Jay and Lambert in terms of possibly bringing this back sometime in the future when the old gang is ready to go at it again.
Take care of yourselves and hope you guys continue to live awesome lives.
