LUXURIOUS PURPLE JACKET: EPISODE #24featuring our good friend faulknasty The Battle of the Two Guys Who Only Go By Their First Names Heading into his second jacket defense, Cody is really starting to look like one tough customer. The man from the MWWC beat up on Bison Hanegawa to take the sacred garment, then resisted Rory Banner’s shootstyle onslaught last night. Indeed, it looks like it’ll probably take someone pretty darn tough to take down our current champion. Unfortunately, “pretty darn tough” is not a way I or anyone else would ever describe Cody’s opponent for the evening. Melvin of the not-particularly-famous Vaughn Brothers is a thin-wristed nerd with no discernible wrestling skill and a source of constant embarrassment to his two older brothers, who will be at ringside. Melvin’s made it clear he has no desire to be here tonight, but his brothers are putting him up to it anyways. Perhaps he’ll change his tune once he’s laid his eyes on the jacket. Will the Vaughn Bros work together to relieve Cody of his coat, or will the man with the purple face paint continue to ride high in LPJ? Find out next! RESULTCody defeats Melvin
12:19
71%CODY BEATS UP A GUY WITH GLASSES. Ron and Sterling did their damnedest to help their little brother out, distracting the ref after Cody hit his finisher early on, and invading the ring late when the referee went down. In the end, it simply wasn’t enough to deliver their feeble little brother to victory, and Melvin eventually ate a shit sandwich on the other end of a Goodnight Sweet Child (which will from now on be referred to as a GSC because that sounds dope). Euphrosine aided Cody admirably while the referee was down, and it’s starting to look like his not-so-secret admirer might be something of a good luck charm. |

A well dressed man sporting a lucha mask walks into the lounge and orders a tequilla, neat. As the bartender brings the drink over, the luchadore begins talking him up... "Amigo amigo, aqui. Let me tell you a story. For years, El Macho was the king of the lucha's in Mexico. He was head honcho with the ladies. Women always loved him the best. But the one thing El Macho never had? Mira. That beautiful jacket. Ahh, esta muy hermosa. Tonight, I would like to fight this Cody. I would like to win that jacket. And then my friend, we drink and dance the night away. Una mas por favor! El Macho must get ready!" |

n/m. for some reason the thing didn't load Lefty's reply after I refreshed the page. Maybe next time. Or maybe RIGHT NOW. If you can jimmy up your promo to somehow acknowledge El Macho as well, I will make tonight's Purple Jacket Match a TRIPLE THREAT FOR THE TITLE. We all know El Macho enjoys a good old fashioned fiesta, and Cody's stuck with whatever match I stick him into, so let it rip takuan! |

Also, I feel called out for having Cody fight Melvin since it was like fighting a nerdier young version of myself with my two older brothers.

Somewhere out there, Hei Gai Wo stands in front of a velvet curtain, his eyes wild, pectoral muscles randomly twitching.

LUXURIOUS PURPLE JACKET: EPISODE #25with our special guests faulknasty , LankyLefty17 and takuan TRIPLE THREAT MATCH
FIRST FALL WINS IT ALL
THE BATTLE OF THE SUPER SUCCINCT WRESTLER NAMESSOME SORT OF UNHINGED ODDBALLHEI GAI WOVSA FLABBY OLD LUCHADOR WHO HAD FAR TOO MUCH TEQUILA BEFORE THE MATCHEL MACHOVSTHE MAN WITH ONE NAMECODY THE FOUR-LETTER PHENOM, CODY has proven himself as a force to be reckoned with in the LPJ, annihilating the incumbent and then cruising through his first two jacket defenses. The Man with One Name looks like he’s in total control right now, and unready to relinquish the jacket anytime soon. Earlier today, the owner of the up-and-coming Lucha POWER promotion El Macho bellied up to our bar, and once he’d made a hefty dent in our tequila supply he decided to challenge Cody for his coat. We’re not sure how eager anyone is to see The C TO THE O TO THE D TO THE YEEEEEEEZAAAAAAAYYYY wallop the holy hell out of some flabby old man in a shabby old mask, so we decided to spice things up a bit. Since it’s already Cody’s third defense, let’s celebrate the number three a little bit. (That’s el numero tres to you, El Macho!) Let’s make this a triple threat match! We’ve invited this really kooky guy over. We found him milling around outside the building, shouting incomprehensible gibberish and generally just acting like a nut. Insists his name is Hei Gai Wo. Sure it is, man. Sure it is. Let’s do this. RESULTCody KOs Hei Gai Wo with a DDT to win it
18:42
96%CODY BUMPS HEI GAI WO'S HEAD. This match looked like it could’ve gone any number of ways, but in the end it went the way most matches around here have been going lately, with THE ONE-NAMED BANDIT stealing the show and the victory! At a certain point it looked like old Cody was destined to lose this one, getting slapped around with a sledgehammer and all, but the man with the purple facepaint dug deep and DDT’d Hei Gai Wo so severely he lost consciousness. AFTER THE MATCH...Medics attend to Hei Gai Wo who is convulsing in the corner. Cody celebrates in the center of the ring. El Macho stomps around angrily bouncing the top rope and berating the referee for stopping the match. Ghost Daddy Purps climbs in to address this ragtag band of scalawags. GDP: Simmer down, El Macho. I’ll have you know that I agree with you wholeheartedly. While that was by and large a very satisfying match to watch, it’s ending was rather unsatisfying indeed. It left an important question unanswered, and now I simply must know: Can El Macho beat The Man With One Name? El Macho stops running around cursing and listens. GDP: So here’s what’s gonna happen: Tomorrow night, in this very ring, we answer that question once and for all. And in honor of our delightful friend El Macho, we’re gonna do it like they do down in old Mexico. Yeah that’s right, it’s gonna be a best-of-three-falls match. Can Cody outlast this wily old vet, or will El Macho use his luchador craftiness and cunning to slip his flabby figure into LA CHAQUETA MORADA? EL MACHO

EL MACHO! Cody thought he was being clever when he reached under the ring and pulled out a plank of wood, but that same plank eventually ended up biting him on the ass… quite literally. After knocking the wooden board out of Cody’s hands and slamming him down atop it, El Macho sealed the deal with an absolutely enormous Macho Splash off the top rope, right through the wood! Cody’s lower lumbar is gonna be aching tomorrow morning, and his wardrobe will have one less jacket in it. El Macho takes two out of three and is our new purple jacket champion! |

*Cody's solemn face appears on a screen that suddenly powers off permanently* (Also I'm to any feedback on Cody. This is the first time I've had a wrestler have this much exposure. I know the first thing I need to figure out is why his voice didn't work. But I will also take any feedback on his moveset, how his logic looked, did he seem too strong? criticalclub.com/thread/987/faulknasty-edits-pc?page=2You can put any feedback here if that's easier) |

Hey faulknasty, don't worry about Cody's suddenly missing voice! I have a strange bug where the red corner wrestler sometimes loses the ability to speak; I'm sure Cody would've sounded as he should if I'd simply put him in the blue corner, it works every time. For some bizarre reason, in my game a small percentage of edits simply can't stand being in my red corner and go silent. As for Cody, I thought he was actually a pretty solid edit overall. The few things I'd personally change: First, I'd totally use a priority to make him pin 100% of the time after that powerbomb he does, especially in large damage. It's just such a huge move, it feels like he should be trying to end with it. If you want to reduce the chance of him *actually* winning off of it while still pinning after it, just be sure it is NOT tagged as a signature or finisher move. Other than that, I'd say the one thing that stood out after several matches is that Cody seems to want to circle around to the back side of his opponent quite a lot near the end of the match, even though his finisher is actually a FRONT grapple. So he's frequently moving away from the position he needs to be in to hit his finishing move, when it is time to be trying to hit that move. I haven't looked, but I imagine he has a pretty high % of going behind the opponent for a back grapple when they are dazed, and maybe a high circle opp % in the standing stuff. I'd suggest lowering the chance of him going for a back grapple; that would probably result in him going for his killer finisher a wee bit earlier and more naturally. But all in all, Cody was an excellent and very memorable purple jacket champion, and who knows... maybe he'll make a surprise re-appearance on the show some time in the future. |

Right those two were other things I was thinking about but immediately forgot. I was thinking about maybe having a taunt after the powerbomb too like the big yell sometimes and pin other. But yes he turned out better than I thought though I thought his elbow drop percentage was low but he did that a lot and his exit the ring when opponent is high and he didn't do that much. I may switch his signature from his powerbomb whip to his Superman elbow(don't remember the real name) since he did that once during his run which is about how often I want him to do it. So hitting bigger out of it would be good.
The back grapple part was very noticeable in this 2/3 falls match and is definitely.
My goal for him is a heel that stands back at first to read his opponents. Stay outside the ring a lot and be almost overly aggressive at the end of the match.

The management appreciates your patience.
Challenges are once again… Aye, Ah been watchin' from the sidelines as this some fable "Purple Jacket" makes it rounds and Ah cannae take it no more. It's HID'YUS. But it's takin' over the wrestling wooorrrrld. An' all Ah do is prooove that Ah am undervalued—undervalued in SHTCWA. Undervalued by those who put this all together. Undervalued as Ah always am, always have been. If ANYONE deserves that hid'yus jacket, it's me. Not some dweeb in a purple Power Rangers outfit or that bitch Ella-Mae Carter and definitely not no over-the-hill lucha legend like El Macho. So now I'll take it by force, and use it to wash my arse. THAT JACKET, YA OVER-THE-HILL OL' LUCHA "LEGEND", IS COMIN' TO SCOTLAND. |

*A Screen sparks back to life*
"I WILL NOT BE CALLED A DWEEB" *Cody's face appears* "I will not let the name of the power rangers be soiled, which my outifit does not look like at all. I am the ONLY champion have successfully defended the PURPLE Jacket in a multi-man match. When I gave HGW the GSC and he still hasn't woken up. You have made an enemy on this day, Farkle Gray"
(If permitted I would like Cody to follow/manage El Macho to the ring in his 1st appearance, he's not there to wrestle so he's going with his casual clothes)
