HEY YOU! YES YOU! THAT'S RIGHT I'M TALKING TO Y... OH GOD MR. BLOBBY TOOK TWENTY HITS OF SHERBERT AND IS ABOUT TO GO ON A RAMPAGE! HE TOOK OFF DYLAN'S OTHER LEG!
Got your attention? Ok good, 2022 was an epic year for our friendly Junior Heavyweights! So to you 220 and under pound folks, kudos. The belt has maintained its status as a top draw and I am proud of all of you for making it so fun to write these matches. We had some very good matches and roleplays and the title changed hands a few times. LET'S RECAP THE RULES!
1) The Junior Heavyweight title is defended in a new fed once a month and will EVENTUALLY run down the list of active feds from top to bottom (X*Crown fed will count as where it would be if there were no X*Crown)
2) The CURRENT RP limits for this belt will be 2 weeks in advance the match is confirmed and the RP window opens (depending on hosting fed), matches can include any number of competitors as long as the challengers are all from the fed the defense is taking place in. Limits are 1 RPs at 1500 words or less. NEW ADDITION: The competitors are free to agree to do more if they agree. Word limits are locked at 1500. No agreement defaults to 1 @ 1500. Competitors can be selected however the fed head wants (competition, volunteer, forced booking) with the only rule that the wrestler must weigh NO MORE than 220 pounds. SO no porkers like uh *checks notes* Death Trap at 260! .... Oh now I feel bad.
3) Gimmicks can match the fed style but try not to go too extreme. And try to go for matches with a clear win condition (pin, submission, escape structure, etc)
4) If nobody in your fed wants to challenge or you just don't want to try for the belt right now you can pass your turn and we will feature a defense within the titleholder's fed or some other arrangement can be made. The belt MUST be defended once per calendar month. (In between defenses if there is a 2 week or wider window the titleholder fed is allowed to run an extra defense if they want)
5) The challengers for the belt MUST BE ACTIVE IN YOUR FED. No ringers. You can send anyone who has had at least 2 months of active competition for your fed.
Now that that's out of the way - Here is where the title will be touring starting in 2023. Feds are free to have the defense at any point in the month as long as there is 2 weeks between the previous defense and the current one. And if there is a 2 week break between, the home fed of the champ can have a defense if they so desire.
CARD SUBJECT TO CHANGE! Feds can come and go and this is a fickle process so I will do my best to update as we go if anything changes.
JANUARY'S DEFENSE - We hit the top of the board for the oldest living fed within the network. J-ROK! Of note this WILL be a RP based match so Kira choose wisely who you want to fight for the title. This match will take place on XHF SUPREMACY!
FEBRUARY'S DEFENSE - For February, the title goes back to where it was housed for a good portion of 2022, Nelly Angel's home fed of GUNS! It will be very interesting to see who Magnus, Venom, and Zoran collaborate to send to win that title.
MARCH'S DEFENSE - The spot for March is CAR! Now we've been instructed to inform Memaw that cars are STILL NOT ELIGIBLE for this title but anyone else under 220 is welcome to compete.
APRIL'S DEFENSE - This defense will be AT the Rumble PPV! Last Sunday of the month. NLW is next on the list, but with their current situation unknown what I will do is open this up to ANY former NLW superstars who wish to challenge! If Adrien and Kris get back to health before then and have a challenger to send then they will obviously get the call instead of the open challenge I just issued.
MAY'S DEFENSE - The JHW title returns to the video game world of Fire Pro! So the defense will be in SCCW. This will be hosted by SCCW and commentated by our favorite announcer Aleister Mayfield! (Again default is an RP match but we're willing to allow for RNG if all people involved agree)
JUNE'S DEFENSE - The JH title will head to TAPOUT to continue its residency in Sin City! This promises to be a show of technical wizardry so bring your A-game!
JULY'S DEFENSE - JULY is XHF's Birthday and as is our new tradition, Night of Champions will host this year's CRUISERFEST! How will it be run this year? I'm glad you asked. I call it the Gauntlet Royale! More info will be posted for this as the NOC write-ups start coming out.
AUGUST'S DEFENSE - It's time for the title to hit Wrestle: UK! Come see Britain's best!
SEPTEMBER'S DEFENSE - For the month of September, HardKore World! gets the nod!
OCTOBER'S DEFENSE - For the month of End of Days, DINOSAUR BONES gets the nod! This match will take place at the big capstone finale PPV for EOD proper on the last Sunday. If any new feds join and set up before this event they can also send people to this event!
NOVEMBER'S DEFENSE - Our penultimate stop of the year, the title comes to DTF!! That;s right the JHW title is DTF baby!
DECEMBER'S DEFENSE - Rounding out the year, we will have the belt hit JROK to round out the year! The current new feds below DTF haven't had enough activity to qualify for a shot so we're wrapping to the top early!
