I'm going with 2.

[birdy51]

Shout! Shout until they fear us!

Also, it seems since we have more time now, we may have made the right choice in not squashing.

[EuchreJack]

Shout!

[StrawBarrel]

2. I give a shout, then run through

[NRDL]

To hell with nerves, to hell with fear. You're where you want to be, and you're going to enjoy yourself.

The Araneta is packed—but it's a small town hall, so that means less than a hundred people. Still, the BoWsers make up in enthusiasm anything that they lack in numbers. They are the most boisterous fans on the independent circuit, and they love making themselves heard.

When you enter, the boos are immediate. They almost drown out your ring introduction.

"And making her debut tonight, from Apter, Tennessee, weighing 190 pounds… Maria the Mangler!"

"You suck!"

"Boooo!"

"Lance will kill you!" Clap! Clap! Clap-clap-clap! "Lance will kill you!"

You sniff disdainfully and saunter up to the ring, arms raised as if you're generously allowing them to gaze at your body.

This is it, you think to yourself. This is what I want.

You slide into the ring, still in something of a daze, soaking in the crowd noise.

You head to one of the ring posts and strike a pose. As you do so, your eyes lock on to a fan in the very first row.

It's a very attractive young man, maybe just a bit older than you, in a wrestling shirt that strains against the muscles of his chest. He gives you a dazzling smile when he catches you looking at him.

1. He's definitely my type.  I smile back and give him a wink.

2. I turn away.  He's cute, but I need to focus on my match.

3. I give him a polite smile.  I'm into women, not men.

4. I give him a wink.  I'm into women, but my character doesn't need to be.

Having played this before, I find it hilarious how they didn't really change the weight of your wrestler based on their gender. I think later on you end up weighing like 230-250 (I'm pretty sure even Chyna doesn't weigh that much; Awesome Kong, maybe ).

Eh, anyway. I'm going to vote 2.

[StrawBarrel]

I'm no too concerned with "aesthetic" choices, but we need popular vote.

The referee calls your attention, and you and Lance take positions across each other in the center of the ring. Lance looks at you intently, her expression almost desperate. But at the moment, you're too awash in your own emotions to give much thought to what she is feeling—you're seconds away from your first official Borderless Wrestling Federation match. All those hours of study under Myra Kirby, all those unpaid gigs in all-but-empty gymnasiums, all those days of bearing with Big Brenda's complaints…

All for this moment. You're not sure if you want to savor the anticipation of if you just want the bell to—

The bell rings. The match has begun!

You lock up with Lance, then quickly bring her into a side headlock, squeezing her head with your right arm. You shift your bodyweight and flip her over your hip, your arm still pincering her head. It's a classic take-down and she grunts as her back hits the mat.

Lance wriggles free of the hold and gets back on her feet, and the two of you face off again.

Time to kick things up a notch.

1. I wonder what the crowd thinks of the match, so far.

2. I wonder what Lance thinks of the match, so far.

3. I wonder what Vinnie thinks of the match, so far.

1. Getting over with the crowd is the most important thing.

[birdy51]

Crowd stuff is important.

But I am more curious about Lance however. So 2).

[EuchreJack]

1. Getting over with the crowd is the most important thing.

+1, Love the Crowd

[Xeron]

1. We get over or we become a jobber.
