Hi All,
I figured it would be interesting to hear of everyone’s fantasy wrestling path that led them to Filsinger Wrestling.
Back in the late 1980’s and early 90’s I was a proud member of the Imaginary Wrestling Association, aka the IWA. It is a play by mail game, that still exists to this day.
Then, for most of the 90’s I was involved in independent pro wrestling. I was blessed to have been trained by Killer Kowalski and have worked with many great talents that came through the area. That is a different story, for a different day. Related to that however, I do plan to create a bootleg card of myself to use in the Filsinger universe. I might ask for help with that on these forums.
For the majority of the 2000’s I was one of the founders and owners of an online fantasy wrestling game named Shootclub, or the Shootclub Wrestling Alliance. After running that for roughly a decade we closed our doors.
That is it in kind of a nutshell. Of course there is more to it than that, but I want to try and keep this post brief.
Even though I don’t follow wrestling as closely as I once did, it will always be one of my loves. That is why when my friend, and pro wrestler Isys Ephex told me about this game, and most importantly that bootleg cards of my favorite wrestler existed, I looked into the game further. Then, by a stroke of great luck I met Jerod on the official Filsinger message boards.
So here I am today, enjoying the creative process, and very slowly learning about Filsinger Wrestling.
Feel free to share your story here.
Best,
John
