I've been in e-feds since around April of 1999, when I joined an aging behemoth known as the P-NWF. I bounced into one of several million feds to call itself the IWF, then a place called SCW, which when it was shut down due to administrative incompetence linked me to the MVW, Meaningless Violence Wrestling.

I joined MVW just in time to miss its May PPV and to catch the prez, Mr. P, competing in FWF's first Last Man Standing tournament. You know, the one they did before FWF got really, REALLY bad. Watching him RP his way to a win over Eldar Markovitch, I learned a lot about not only characterization but also the dos and don'ts of e-wrestling from the perspective of handler as well as suit. In fact, by the time Mr. P fled the country due to a combination of legal trouble and Mormonism, I had some full-blown hero worship going on.

After MVW shut down, I was one of the many to wander aimlessly around the internet, pumping up the second column of my W/L record and building up my chops with my original e-fed character. I joined the SWA last spring (Shootclub Wrestling Association, that is) and enjoyed reasonable success as both a promoer and a simmer, getting over as a sentimental favorite underdog that the fans just happened to hate with a passion.

When Mr. P returned Stateside, I joined his experimental OWL (Ohio Wrestling League) a week after it opened and stayed until a week after it shut down. Now I'm here because a friend of mine received an e-mail invitation that didn't even remotely resemble spam.

I've won one non-simmed primary title (MVW World), been inducted into one fed-based Hall of Fame, and do not have a .500 record even with the character who was arguably my best. The IWO and FWO never wrote me back, and my own fed, AGHW (Acronym Goes Here Wrestling), lasted three weeks at best.

Hi, I'm Three Dollar Bill, and I'll be your jobber today.
