Michael Hickenbottom, popularly known by his ring name Shawn Micahels, had worked for the World Wrestling Entertainment for almost two and a half decade. No one had ever thought of him leaving the said company to work for others just like Mark Calloway (the Undertaker) and his very close friend and Paul Levesque (Triple H), which really made a legacy in the said company but the whole thing suddenly change and a lot of fans were surprised when Michael announced that he will leave the company and he will never be seen in a WWE show again. It is due to some backstage fights with his boss, Vincent Kennedy Mcmahon about abusing his powers and other deep reasons. Shawn Michaels had enough of his boss' bad attitude and his abusive power to the business and decided to leave the company without waiting for his contract to expire. By the end of January, WWE annouced thru their website that Shawn Michaels parted ways with the company. Shawn then made a radio talk a week after he leaved the company and he told all the reasons why he decided to leave the company which he made a name and legacy. The announcer then asked about "What's next for the Showstopper?" and the former WWE Champion started to laugh and told the announcer about his plan about building his own company. At first most of the people find it was a joke but without knowing it, Michael had some talks with is friend named Brad Higgins who owns a million dollar worth of oil refinery business in San Antonio asking him for some financial helps for the said project and without thinking twice, he accepted Michael's proposal. Michael then started to use his real name for the contracts and other needed files for the company and his friend signed as his business partner. Michael also have some talks with FSN and they guaranteed them a 3 year Television deal for the company. After several months of preparation, they finally built the said company and christened it with the name, EXODUS: Pro Wrestling Syndicate.

The news then started to come across the wrestling business and when some of the WWE stars heard about it, they decided not to sign their renewal contracts to WWE as they also experience alot of backstage heats with their boss and join Michael and his company. Alot of WWE Superstars then joined the said company including some of the biggest names like, Matt Hardy, John Morrison, CM Punk and their current Smackdown main eventer and former WWE Champion, Jeff Hardy. Michael was truly overwhelmed when he heard about it and he also decided to recruit some wrestlers from the independent scene and TNA. Some decided to join and Michael let them sign an open contract which means that they can still work on other small companies other than WWE and to prevent some conflicts with their then friendly competitor, TNA. As he finally completed his roster, Michael then started to introduce his promotion to the public. He held a conference for the company in San Antonio and alot of interested fans and reporters attended. At the conference, he explained why he chose "EXODUS" to be the name of the company and it is because his company is an "exile" from the sports entertainment phase of wrestling. They will try to show alot more of action rather than it's "soap opera" side. Michael also told the audience that this promotion will be giving some emphasis on it's tag team division that's why he hire lots of tag team wrestlers (yet ironically, he'll be a singles competitor in the company). And for his last words, Michael told the fans that the wait is finally over as the revolution of brand new wrestling had arrive and it's EXODUS: Pro Wrestling Syndicate.

Well, very good lay-out, I like the concept, and it looks like you've got a pretty good Roster at your disposal so I hope you make the most of it. Good luck with this.

Looking good Levi/ John Cheena/ Main Event Man. I was not around for the beginning of HEW, so I can't wait for this to begin. Hopefully this lasts as long as HEW, and good luck!

This is great. now I can actually follow this from the start unlike Hew were I came around the 3/4 mark.

The roster is great with some great superstars with different styles that should make some great feuds when they clash. Morrison vs. Van Dam (Is what I would love to see.)

But yes I will be reading. Good luck.

EXODUS' First Show

EXODUS made it's very first show at a House Show in a small venue in San Antonio, Texas. The show featured two outsanding main events. The first main event was between Shawn Michaels and Claudio Castagnoli. The two blew the house down as they only met inside the ring for the first time and they delivered a real exciting program with each other. The second main event is between the team of the Hardys and the reunited team of Rey Mysterio and Rob Van Dam and this four pulled an exciting match. Now rumors said that EXODUS are planning to give their Main Event tag titles either at the team of the Hardys or Mysterio/RVD.

Another surprising thing that happened in the House Show is when we see the team of the Olsens (Colin and Jimmy) in a new gimmick. We see Colin wear a "Hustler, Royalty, Disrespect" T-Shirt and a short jeans while Jimmy wears a red flaming thights. They made a program with their long time rival Cheech and Cloudy that night and the fans were surprised when the match ended when Jimmy gives Cheech a sit-up powerbomb. After the match, Colin then hits Cloudy with a very popular Fireman's Carry Slam finisher. They never made a promo after the match but they already gave a hint on their possible gimmicks in EXODUS.

An informer also told us that both Michael Hickenbottom and Brad Higgins spend a million dollars to create a smaller version of the Elimination Chamber. The structure was already done as they started constructing it 9 months ago.

Here are the House Show Results in San Antonio, TX

THE Matt Bentley def. Shark Boy

Brent Albright def. The Masterpiece via DQ

Colin Delaney and Jimmy Olsen def. Cheech Hernandez and Cloudy Day

THE Tag Team def. Briscoe Brothers and Motor City Machineguns in a very exciting three way dance match

Basham and Damaja def. Andrew Storm and Phil Davis (locals)

Shawn Michaels def. Claudio Castagnoli

The Hardys def. Rob Van Dam and Rey Mysterio

This looks like a very nice card, and I can see that with the roster you have, this BTB will be a success. I especially like the tag main event and a fued between these two teams would be epic in my eyes.

I merged your threads though, as I saw no need for two.

Looks good man, and you add a bit of realism with the House shows and results. Can't wait for the first show.

Hopefuly Claudio Castagnoli gets pushed quite a bit with his Michaels encounter.
