I hope everyone enjoyed the previous episode of Primetime as we're ONE episode away from our first PPV of 2018. I'm still going to do an OOC discussion thread for that show, I just wanted to post this card first for people can get the ball rolling.
One thing I want to mention about this card and PPV coming up. I've made the decision to have the Television Championship and Tag Team Championships defended on this show and not the PPV because the title holders are in the Riot Control Royal Rumble-style main event - FYI I'm going with rules similar to Lucha Underground's Aztec Warfare match (Falls Count Anywhere, No DQ, and pinfall/submission for eliminations) to make eliminations faster. That being said, that's the one omission where the TV champion will NOT lose the title upon being eliminated from that match. So if you have a problem with that, bring it up to me personally and not whine about it on social media. We're adults here. Those titles will be defended again on the Primetime AFTER this event as well. The reason being for this decision is that I'm being honest with myself as the sole full-time match writer we have here that the Riot Match will take up majority of my time writing on this card, especially with the majority of the active roster in that match involving current storylines and feuds in that one match, so I want to give it justice it deserves. To be fair, we gave the Television Championship it's own special event/show and the Tag Team tournament just ended, so it's fair enough to give the focus to the World Heavyweight Championship as we crown a new champion.
As for the Women's Championship, any woman who wishes to pull double duty (alternatively, can request not to take place in the main event) can do so by taking place in a battle royal I plan on having to name a new #1 contender. Susie Price still has her one-on-one rematch opportunity as the former champion but as of this posting and Reinas Tres, she asked for some time off to avoid getting burnt out. So to keep the ball rolling I'm going to determine a new challenger for Vi Malkov to defend against on that front.
FGA's Fujiko Mine won Reina de Reinas Tres, so she's entitled to an one-on-one match against Vi Malkov for the Queen of Queens Championship. If she manages to retain the title until the next Reinas tournament, then she has the chance to earn the same opportunity that Vi cashed in on to challenge whoever is the Women's Champion. I guess that's our own version of Austin Aries' Option C... In either case, I want to continuously remind the competitors who took place in Reinas Tres that you can challenge whoever is the reigning champion for the duration of the time between now (after Fujiko gets her title shot) and when the next Reinas tournament takes place. Very few people took up on that offer last time and I want to continue to stress that this time around.
I originally was going to book this card for the week after WrestleMania weekend, but I'm being realistic to myself here and I know I'm not going to get much done that week prior even though I'm off from work that week and I already have stuff lined up to take care of IRL. Whether you like WWE or not, there's always something for everyone that weekend to watch even if you're not attending live so there's that too.
