I know there are logistical reasons against this...but, shouldn't First and Fifth Realm guy's be better than this, even after giving up most of there powers to come here? They are two of the top wrestlers in ACE, but I would think they would have to be heavily favored against the likes of Chaos and Endgame in reality. like I said there are logistical reasons for it, and personally I'm glad there not that good, but I was wondering what other people thought about it.

If you make them too strong, then no one would compete with them and it would get boring. Godsend still is dominating my fed though.

It's simple: They aren't really "wrestlers". They are these super-natural creatures thrown into a battle that just happens to take place in a wrestling ring...
Whereas Chaos and Endgame are "athletes"...thier purpose was always to be the best fighter in the galaxy...wrestling wise...
Logically, both Endgame and Chaos would be favored over either Godsend or Exodus in a "wrestling match".

The other thing that would effect supernatural being like this, that are desending into humanish form is that they wouldn't be used to feeling pain, adrenaline, etc, so it would follow that they may have a harder time coping with the realities of being and athlete than an actual athlete would. At least, that's how it is in my universe  |

I play it that Godsend and Exodus are just avatars of their universal forms... such as there is a Divine form of Exodus and a Hellish form of Godsend... but these forms just do not manifest in the material world (Centra in this case)... so Godsend ascends as an avatar of lesser potency.... and Exodus descends as an avatar of lesser potency. Remember the scene in the aCe handbook wherein Exodus came down from Heaven and shed his wings... There ya go, boys! MMD!

Ya know, Swarm and Mike M. both make really strong and valid points here.
Look at it this way...
Suspend disbelief for one minute with me here. Let's say you're on an actual "battlefield" with weapons, ammo, the whole nine...the last guy you'd want to run into would be [glow=blue,2,300] Flatliner [/glow]
Battlefield withOUT weapons? Hopefully [glow=red,2,300]Hybrid [/glow]doesn't tear you limb from limb
Walking alone in a dark alley? Don't wanna catch a glimpse of [glow=white,2,300]Gheist [/glow]out of the corner of your eye
In a hand to hand streetfight? Don't mess with [glow=yellow,2,300]Hustler[/glow]
Now that's the picture I'm painting in a nutshell. You take these sorts of characters and throw them into a futuristic wrestling league, and there are going to be TONS of ways to interpret who should and could be better than the other.
So, what I'm trying to say, is ANY way you interpret this situation is right on.

I broke my second commandment of wrestling when I posted this question (it's fiction, minor idiosyncrasies and improbabilities will appear, live with it.). And for the reason Troy stated I'm glad they are not as strong as I think they should be (ACE has great balance when it comes to the wrestlers abilities). But, I just felt that any creature that comes from the 1st or 5th realm would be unstoppable by anyone who doesn't. Great posts all the way around.
