Hardcore/Full Metal Title

[theamazingbadger]

How many people use a hardcore style title in their GWF feds? What do you usually call said title if you do have it? When did you first introduce it?

[swarm]

I don't because I tend to run a lot of special matches anyways...instead I use the Wargames Title. Best 2/3 falls every match.

I use to use it a long time ago but like Swarm said above "I tend to run a lot of special matches anyways".

When did you introduce those titles?

I created the Steel Cage title long before the Heavy Metal belt was introduced. I'd have to look to see exactly when, it was probably within the first five game editions when I brought it in and Thantos took it and defended his GWF belt in a steel cage simultaneously. Later I used the Death Match title.

I just got back into GWF....but years ago when I first played I had a Brass Knuckles champion. The first match was a pair of brass knucks on a pole, the first one to get them could legally use them.....then, during title matches, both men started the match wearing brass knuckles.

I agree. Too many special matches to have a title for it.

I used to have a Hardcore Title but abandoned it about 3 years ago.

I dropped it when 2119 started as well as the cruiserweight title.

I use a Hardkore title in 2121 because I only run special matches on ppv's or to main event a special tv show. A regular hardkore title match on my shows is kinda fun. Ive ran it for 2 years and its starting to wane so im probably gonna trade out for a super jr. or tv title.

I don't have a hardcore title in my GWF, but there is one for the mens and womens divisions in my CPC, (SPOILER ALERT!!!) now that OFC was forced to fold and re-merge with CPC. For more on this story, tune into the winter edition of OWP Wrestlerap, due out in December.

I use it as the "Special Matches Champion" . Before that it was the Heavy Metal champion , they used to just fight matches inside a steel comsic cage .

I've never had a Hardcore Champ and I doubt I ever will. I feel the less titles a federation has, the more important the champions feel...maybe some year I'll get to a Hardcorde Title...but not for a long time.

I keep introducing a hardcore/special matches Championship (I called it the Black Hole Championship) because I like the idea. But I always end up phasing it out. For me, special matches fit better in feud situations, so that is what I reserve them for now.

Instead of a special matches/hardcore Championship, I am currently trying what I call the 3T (Tirion Triple Threat) Championship. I enjoy triple threat matches, and this Championship makes them a little more special. Interestingly enough, Monolith has competed in a couple of these Championship matches and cannot seem to win this title. He is getting very frustrated over this.

I folded the hardcore title into the interplanetary title when Steele Freak won the both in 2119. The Cruiserweight title I also phased out of the GWF, as there just aren't enough decent cruiserweights. I now have incorporated the Wargames title that Swarm uses into my GWF, that is a Hardcore title with most matches being 2 of 3 titan death. Mostly hardcore wrestlers and cruiserweights compete. Infact the champion now is the Hardcore Cruiserweight Aethran...Rush!

So when was the Hardcore title officially introduced into the GWF by Tom?
