--[ 1. What is the EMPIRE? ]--
Eccentric multi-millionaire, Ritchie Rios, has conquered every aspect of the business world he's touched. His latest impulsive tendency? The wild-world of professional wrestling, of course! EMPIRE is coming! His concept? Build a world class, high budget organization and conquer the wrestling world. His focus is to push young talent on a big scale, with a few big names thrown in for good measure.
OOC
My name's Rich, I'm running this federation to have fun running a FUN organization. Please note that, I don't tolerate OOC problems, everyone get along -- or else. I'm friendly and open to ideas and criticism, but please if you have a problem email me or talk to me on AIM.

Matches are booked mainly by roleplay (and a little for oncard segments), but some will be angle based if a match result is crucial to an angle. Please remember, for every person who wins, at least one will lose.
--[ 2. What are the SHOWS? ]--
TELEVISED
Currently there is one weekly televised program for EMPIRE - airing live every Tuesday night - CONQUEST.
PAY-PER-VIEW
EMPIRE will host a pay-per-view event every two months. The week of a scheduled pay-per-view CONQUEST will not air, rather a recap show, building up to the big event. Scheduled pay-per-views are as follows:
Resolution - January
Ides of March - March
Road to Glory - May
- The superbowl of EMPIRE, held every May, Road to Glory will see all titles defended as well as major grudge matches
Deadly Alliances - July
- The stars of EMPIRE are placed into tag-teams randomly and participate in a one-night tournament with the winning team receiving a shot at the EMPIRE Tag-Team Titles
Ring of Blood - September
- The ring turns crimson as the EMPIRE stars involve in a full night of no-holds-barred contests!
Battlegrounds
- There's power in numbers and the stars of EMPIRE will clash in a wargames type environment, more details will be released shortly.
And at the end of December, a special pay-per-view as EMPIRE presents -- Champion of Champions - a one night tournament of eight, the lineup of which being determined in the weeks leading upto it. The winner will receive a shot at the EMPIRE World Championship guaranteed for the main event at Resolution. This show will also feature a champion of champions match where ALL champions will collide in the ring at the same time -- the winner of which will be crowned EMPIRE Gladiator.
--[ 3. What Are the CHAMPIONSHIPS OF EMPIRE? ]--
- Currently there are three honored championships in EMPIRE. This number will change as the federation grows.
EMPIRE WRESTLING WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP
Contested by all wrestlers in the federation. Highly coveted and defended at least once per month!
EMPIRE WRESTLING JUNIOR X CHAMPIONSHIP
May only be contested by wrestlers weighing 235 pounds and under. The competition for this title is fierce as it will be contested at least twice per month.
EMPIRE WRESTLING TAG-TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP
For tag-teams --
Additional titles in consideration to be created should the need arise are a secondary singles open-weight championship, a hardcore championship and a women's championship.
--[ 4. What are the RULES? ]--
- Have fun!
- Do not use other people's characters without specified permission.
- Although it is semi-fantasy, please keep things moderately believable - we're providing a "televised" product, so make sure it could be seen that way.
- Have fun!
- Roleplay - the limit is one per show, but make sure you get it in by the deadline.
- Communicate - if you have a problem, please let me know via email - if you have suggestions, please let me know via email -- just communicate -- please?
- Here's the rule that should be obvious. Don't be a jerk to people OOC -- you start problems here and you will be warned and then banned without exception! Don't like it? Go somewhere else and be unpleasant!
- Have fun (dammit!)!!
