Lords of Pain Wrestling

The Psychotic Wrestling Alliance is an E-Fed for the website

It was founded in the spring of 2003 by LOP Forum Moderator Villiano 187. His first hire in running the fed was soon to be LOP Columnist Phantom Lord who took on the role of head writer for the promotion. The shows over time evolved into highly detailed epics that some said featured better wrestling in text than on actual television.

The PWA originally had a format of one "television" show a week and one "pay-per-view" per month. The PWA's first ever show was Annihilation which saw LOP Moderator Marty win the PWA World Heavyweight Championship in a tournament final over Phantom Lord in a steel cage match.

The PWA shows were originally housed in the Free For All forum on LOPForums.com but some regulars complained about the shows taking up space and the decision was made to give the PWA it's own forum and it's been housed there ever since. Eventually the PWA roster grew so big that a second show was needed and the decision was made to do a brand split like the WWE. PWA Schizophrenia (which was the headline show) became it's own brand and they added PWA Pyromania. Schizo and Pyro have been compared to WWE RAW and WWE SmackDown! respectively. Each show does its own brand-only "pay-per-views". The PWA also offers a third show, called "Vertigo", which features talent from both brands.

Wrestlers are given a card before each show, and are told to write a promo if they have a match in that card's "Voting and Promo Thread". A combination of promo scores (rated by the writers) and vote scores (Also collected in the V&P thread) determine the winners and losers. In addition, there is a "Trash-Talking" thread for each show, where wrestlers may post additional promos and converse in and out of character. To become an active wrestler and recieve matches, people must sign up in the official sign-up thread. After that, they are encouraged to vote on cards and post promos in the "Trash Talking" threads. Eventually, one of the brands will "pick up" said person.

2006 marked the PWA's third year of operation on the board and a full team of writers and bookers handle the production aspects of the show. Each show has it's own team of writers who take turns writing matches to piece together a full show.
