Finally got around to starting to remake my female type wrasslers with Stardom parts, and as always, none of these are updated on the Workshop yet, because I'm a lazy, terrible person
Very mild update for Junior Grim, aka the one who betrayed her hillbilly heritage by wearing actual ring gear
New top for Agent Bulldog, the only member of the Evil Administration who seems to take any of this bullshit seriously
Fairly significant update for Yumiko La Grange, looking sharp as she copes with all her problems by giving people CTE
Pretty major overhaul for the Phantom Rocker, shouting at the devil and kick-starting your hearts since 2018.
Pretty heavy reworking for living mascot Taco Belle, skirting around trademark laws in her new classic 80s colorway.

Two more down
Cyberta is still out here inadvertently representing the Seattle Seahawks, because that's just the Think Tank's color scheme, and still having goddang ROBOT ARMS
and PARTY TIGER is still here, being the world's most agile alcoholic and having to update her gear, because some stains just stop washing out after a while.
(also, I kinda flipped some of the red and brown on Taco Belle's new costume #3, but forgot to take a new screenshot)

Last one of the day, honest
First, the Taco Belle update
Now, some preview pictures for the first annual STRUGGLE Pro NOVEMBERWEEN SPOOXMAS CREEPTACULAR, coming around mid-April, if at all:
Black Panther Mask as Colin Kaepernick
Jackson Victory as Randy Jackson from the cover of the Jacksons' legendary Victory album, which he enjoys a great deal (not so much a Halloween costume, as a 5th attire)
Jezebel Grim as WFW legend "Steel Gold" Steam Odin
Yumiko La Grange as "Yumiko La Grange wearing the clothes I slept in, because I locked myself out of the house this morning, and Junior is spending the weekend with his grandparents and I gave him the spare key in case the show ran long, and Ace probably still has a key, but I WOULD RATHER SIT IN THE FRONT YARD AND FREEZE THAN ASK FOR THAT MAN'S HELP, IN FACT FUCK HIM, I AM CHANGING THE LOCKS"
Cyberta as Major Jackson "Jax" Briggs (I mean, it was right there)
Screaming Rage Man as RAGE COLONEL

The bald cap as part of a costume is super clever.

The bald cap as part of a costume is super clever. Maaan, I was really proud of that little detail and was hoping someone would notice it.

More unfinished edits that y'all may never get to use: presenting LEGENDS OF THE TRI-STATE AREA
I'm actually planning on doing something with these eventually, but then again, 've been planning to do something with all of these so far, soo.... anyway...
"The Mexican American" Manny Diaz - Covered in a post on a previous message board post. Used his amateur training and natural charisma to be one of the greatest stars of the 1980s.
Ivan the Awful - Same as above. The TSWA's top heel of the 1980s, yet never actually managed to hold the world's championship, a failure that haunts him to this day...
The Killer Kowboys (Hoss Gracie and Buckshot McMurder) - Feared heel team of the late 1970s and early-to-mid 80s. Eventually went on to successful singles careers, and while Buckshot enjoyed more solo success, he eventually succumbed tio heavy drug use, and is currently serving a life sentence after shooting a guy while robbing a local fast food eatery, effectively committing a literal Buckshot McMurder. Currently, Hoss still wrestles occasionally and trains STRUGGLE Pro hopefuls in his Hoss Dojo, while Buckshot eventually found religion and became a model prisoner, and the man now known as Yusuf Muhammad is presently training inmates for the Slammed Straight! program.
Sour Persimmon Cousins - The legendary Meanest Man What Ever Lived, possibly the most feared man in wrestling history, despite technically never even being a wrestler. As legend has it, during a battle royal in a 1967 card, he kicked the doors (which seemed unnecessary, they weren't locked) and demanded that "y'all knock off all this damn commotion" and proceeded to individually kick the ass of all twenty competitors. That was weird enough, but in 1976, 1984, and 1995, the exact same scene played out, despite the fact that eyewitnesses described him as being at least in his late 70s the first time he appeared, back in '67. He hasn't been seen since, but the old timers say he's long overdue for a return.
Immortan Jimmy - One of the greatest legends in the history of STRUGGLE Pro, he dominated both the cruiserweight and hardcore divisions during the 2000s, performing such insane feats of suicidal madness that some speculated that he lacked both functioning nerve endings or the brain with which to use them. He often claimed that he literally could not die, leading to tragedy, when at a 2011 show, he climbed to the rafters of the building, yelled "I CAN LITERALLY NEVER DIE" and jumped headfirst onto nothing in particular. He's been in a coma ever since, and despite having his plug pulled in early 2013, is still technically alive and listed as the #1 contender to the cruiserweight belt, as he technically never lost it.
Think Tank Z - An inhuman monster who never actually lost a singles match in his brief career. Was said by many to be completely unbeatable, and was scheduled to face STRUGGLE World Champion Ace La Grange at the company's disastrous Eternal STRUGGLE 2011 event, where he was expected to win easily, both due to his general monstrosity and he fact that ol' Ace was really starting to leave Las Vegas by then. But then, disappeared mysteriously, leading some to go so far as accuse his manager and mentor, Brain God the Calculation Master, of actually murdering him out of fear of his power. The mystery has never been solved, and his disappearance has been viewed with relief more than anything else.
Ayatollah Jihad - "The Mad Sultan" was the most feared and despised man in the late 80s TSWA, a blood-crazed maniac who knew more ways to stab a man than actual wrestling holds. He eventually became the third most mysterious figure in Tri-State wrestling (after Think Tank Z and Sour Persimmon Cousins) when he abruptly stormed into the office one day, threw the world title belt on the promoter's desk, said "I'm sorry, I just can't do this bullshit anymore" and walked out. The fact that he said this in English with a heavy southern accent shocked everyone, who truly believed he was a madman of the deserts of Arabia. The story eventually got out, and was the public;s first exposure to the idea that wrestlers might not be who they claim to be, and eventually lead to the foul rumor that wrestling was actually fake, a libel which took years to go away.
Mildred McGuirk - The roughest, toughest, meanest lady wrassler of the late 1970s and early 80s, Mildred was a force to be reckoned with, and was the only female competitor in the history of the region to use the Iron Claw as a finisher, until Cyberta showed up with her dang robot arms. Also, perhaps the fourth most mysterious wrestler in Tri-State wrestling history, as she abruptly retired in 1982, and left the country, revealing herself to be a dedicated revolutionary, willing to give her life to stop the advancement of American capitalist imperialism in South America. Has been officially listed as missing since 1983, but sources close to her (Hoss Gracie, but you didn't hear that from me) suspect that the CIA finally got her in El Salvador sometime in 1988.
Yumiko Nakano - High-flying, charismatic babyface who took STRUGGLE Pro by storm in the early 2000s. Was only supposed to be in the United States for a two-month excursion, but stuck around after a whirlwind romance with future world champ Ace La Grange. And uhhh, yeah, let's just not talk about anything that happened after that. Yeah.
Alan "Ace" La Grange - One of the most charismatic, physically gifted superstars that ever lived, and eventually grew into a multiple time world champion under the tutelage of his trainer and mentor, the legendary Big Bird Machine. Formed a group eventually informally known as "The Dream Team" with Big Bird Machine, Lieutenant Governor Justice, and future ex-wife Yumiko Nakano, and the faction's popularity was a major factor in STRUGGLE Pro nearly breaking through to national or even global prominence. Of course, then Justice beat the shit out of Bird and Ace with a steel chair and remade himself as the diabolical President Evil, Big Bird Machine blew out his knee and didn't wrestle for almost a decade, Ace's heavy drug use and constant womanizing eventually lead to Yumiko beating his half-conscious ass so badly that she was nearly deported, and STRUGGLE Pro went out of business. You know, as it always seems to go.
NEXT TIME ON LEGENDS OF THE TRI-STATE AREA: (since I forgot to take screenshots of those half-finished edits) THE JUSTICE FAMILY

Last "check out these edits you'll probably never get to use" post for a while, and the second installment of LEGENDS OF THE TRI-STATE AREA
Jake Justice was the consummate up-and-coming babyface in the early 80s TSWA. He was big, handsome, and threw a heckuva dropkick, let me tell you. But then, he took a step to the next level after winning the 1987 Monarch of the Mat Tournament, and confronted with the possibility of being crowned King Jake Justice, he rejected the title, claiming the monarchy to be undemocratic, and besides, he was a man of the people. So instead of a crown, he picked up a snazzy blue suit and became...
Governor Justice, an All-American Hero in a time that had plenty of those, but also couldn't seem to get enough of them. He became a multiple time world's champion, and while he wasn't quite on the level of someone like Manny Diaz or Big Bird Machine, he still was a dominant force in the sport for nearly 20 years and one of the most respected men to ever lace up the boots. Nearing the theoretical twilight of his career in the early 2000s and with an eye toward the future, he introduced the world to his two children, the Next Generation of Justice:
Justin and Justine Justice - Two rookies pretty much straight out of high school, these two showed every sign of following in their father's footsteps, except different, as Justin's slight frame made him much more suitable for the high-flying cruiserweight style, and Justine was, well, a girl. They took their lumps, all all green new recruits tend to do, but it was pretty much considered a sure thing that they'd carry the family legacy into the 21st century. Until...
A huge, impressive new talent known simply as The Instigator appeared. The reality was that it's kind of a Tri-State area tradition to throw a white mask and the name "Instigator" on jobbers who want to earn overtime wrestling twice in a night and rookies who don't need their future drawing potential damaged by the jobberish early portion of their career. There have probably been hundreds of Instigators over the years, and in fact, I'm pretty sure STRUGGLE Pro has at least two of them right now. But anyway, this particular Instigator was an almost unheard of physical specimen, a big-ass hoss who could hoss people around in a hoss-like manner, but when necessary, could turn on the afterburners and zip around like a man half his size for a whole-ass hour. The Honorable Governor immediately took notice of this once-in-a-lifetime talent, took him under his wing, and out came...
Lieutenant Governor Justice - He immediately impressed in tag matches with his new-found father figure in Governor Justice, and it was only a matter of time before singles success became the norm for this generational talent. Of course, tensions ran high behind the scenes, as Justin resented this outsider usurping him as his father's trusty sidekick, not to mention his protective older brother instinct kicking in hardcore once he started to suspect that Justine was sweet on the giant masked man. (And allegedly, he's not bad looking under that mask. That's just what I heard, you guys.) But the Governor managed to keep the peace, and everyone became huge superstar good guys, and everyone was happy forever...
Haha, fuuuuuck no, nothing in this godforsaken place can ever end well. In 2003, Governor Justice's career was ended and his reputation ruined, following a truly bizarre sex scandal that I'm not even gonna type around here, for real, it was just weird. Disgraced, Justin and Justine both just sort of disappeared from wrestling, and are believed to have left the Tri-State area altogether. (Which is kinda messed up, because neither one of them had done anything wrong, but I guess people are super into guilt by association) Eventually, the Good Lieutenant was taken under the gigantic wing of the legendary Big Bird Machine, who quite accidentally unlocked his true potential, which was not at all what anyone was expecting or hoping for...

I love Legends of the Tri State Area. The edits are great and the history behind them and the writing is awesome. My favourite is Immortan Jimmy, specially after he jumped headfirst onto nothing in particular.

Welp, it's time again for HALF-FINISHED EDITS Y'ALL MAY NEVER GET TO USE!
Coming soon to STRUGGLE Pro, despite the protests of almost the entire roster and everyone in the front office! Coming to you live from KRCK 103.9 FM, The Krack! Your home of the rock! THE MORNING ZOO! (Mrs. Ruggle overruled everyone, as they're the favorite radio show of her currently-incarcerated favorite son, STRUGGLE founder Steven T. Ruggle)
It's the man of the hour, BIG DADDY JIMBO! The Tri-State Area's favorite shock jock! His brand of humor, mostly involving misogyny and casual racism, plus a heaping helping of random soundboard button-mashing, has captivated audiences for over twenty years! He's probably going to die of a heart attack in the ring!
And his partner in crime, THE WEASEL DOG! The wild man himself! He's all greasy and weird! He once jumped off the roof of KRCK headquarters into a kiddie pool full of gravy live on the air! He's a registered sex offender!
And don't forget that the Morning Zoo never goes anywhere without the MORNING ZOO BIKINI BABES! THE ALLURING BRENDA! The Tri-State Area's favorite Bikini Babe is back after a six month stay at a local correctional facility! She's a former exotic dancer who was banned from every club in the region for shooting a patron! She sells meth, makes amateur porn, and even briefly dated The Weasel Dog, until she stabbed him in the abdomen!
And don't forget SEXY STACY! She's got a master's degree, and is a fully licensed social worker who has dedicated her life to helping children! But now, she has to bounce around half naked for all you perverts to keep the rent paid, because WE LIVE A HELLWORLD!
THE MORNING ZOO! YEAH! (insert thirty second string of random sound effects, including a wolf howl and the chorus to "Me So horny" by 2 Live Crew here)
Moving on, a new another new addition to STRUGGLE, here's personal assistant to Doctor Reverend Billy Wayne Humble and the driving force behind Humble Ministries, SISTER CANDY:
A former drug addict who credits her newfound dedication to The Lord (as well as The Humble Miracle Elixir) with setting her on the right path, Candy is the Good Doctor Reverend's personal assistant and second in command of the Ministry. Honestly, Humble hired her own with less-than-Godly intentions, but much to her chagrin, she actually takes this way more seriously than he does, so he never even got to first base, much less rounded third into homw. But he keeps her around, because she basically handles 99% of his business matters, even if she does seem kind of unsettling, with how she's always smiling and never seems to blink her eyes. It's been said that Humble Ministries is more of a cult than a church organization, and Candy seems to have a lot more to do with any of that than Billy Wayne does. no way this ends badly, no siree. Fun fact regarding costume #4: In her former life, actually briefly dated STRUGGLE founder Steven T. Ruggle, and even wrestled a few matches (very, very poorly) on TV, ("hey, I can put you on TV" being Stevie's most successful pickup line) culminating in a pretty shocking twelve-second knockout loss to Yumiko La Grange, who at that point was less than a month away from beating her philandering then-husband Ace La Grange nearly to death with a pipe wrench. Hey, speaking of which...
Here's ALAN LA GRANGE JUNIOR! Lil' Ace is here! As a preteen, he's way too young to wrestle, but he's a fixture backstage and at the Hoss Dojo (where both his parents often volunteer to help Ol' Ross Gracie with the traines - Ace because he needs the cash, and Yumiko because her therapist tells her that she needs to leave the house more often, and she's usually who Ace calls for a ride there, anyway) because he's too old for a babysitter and too untrustworthy with liquor and flammable objects to leave by himself. He's a whirlwind of mayhem, peeping in the women's changing room and constantly setting fires and knocking shit over, but he's somehow pretty much universally loved, because hey, he's Lil' Ace! Probably represents at least a good quarter of the reasons why his mom is the way she is.
And one of the more promising additions to the Hoss Dojo training school, SOCCER NINJA! (possibly a temporary name, unless I can't come up with a better one) She was a young girl with two chief interests in life: The sport of football (as in soccer, for my fellow Americans) and the deadly arts of ninjutsu. The problem was that she kept accidentally combining the two. The soccer world rejected her, because she kept straight-up kicking people in the throat all the time, and her ninja clan kicked her out because she refused to use her hands for anything or actually kill anyone, both of which are pretty important to being a ninja assassin. Somehow, she ended up in the Tri-State Area training to be a professional wrestler, because that's just how it be sometimes.
Also, thanks to the Hoss Dojo program, WE GOT MORE JOBBERS! Meet CONGOLIA DONDELINGER, YANNI ACROPOLIS, and THE BIG KID WHO'S PROBABLY NOT GONNA MAKE IT!
Finally, some stuff you actually can use with the latest ModPack test version: WEAPONS! Scroll up for a link to the ol' Google Drive somewhere in this thread, for the GOLF CLUB! and the MURDER BAT!

Nothing really new to report, but after I made that Christmas card thing, (it's in the e-fed folder) I felt that this should exist as a standalone image, because it's the most (only?) wholesome and innocent thing I've ever done with this game.
(But without a background, it really stands out how badly the Taco Belle part was cut out of the original screen grab. Yikes.)
