FRPW: Bella Twins Within Hell in a Cell
Normally, I would introduce this all in kayfabe, but I'll be honest, this fake was Hell itself to get through. So I'm just going to speak plainly about it.
First off, I know I said I was going to take some time to evaluate the scene since the seizure of CFake. However, things are looking pretty okay for now, so I said fuck it. I'll still be cautious going forward, but I won't it stop me just yet. Second, I don't like this fake. I don't think it's bad or anything, but it was so troublesome to get through. I had a nice workflow going with some personal fakes I made for myself-I even discovered a few new techniques in the process-but with this one, it was just working against me at every turn. Every time something was going good, a couple bad things decided to make themselves known. Even after the final edits, it just looked so bad-it had way to much contrast when I barely applied any, and trying to lessen it didn't do much to help it. After it was done, I went on to make a matchcard for it, but it ended up crashing my computer harder than the asteroid that made the dinosaurs go extinct. I mean it crashed so hard, that I lost hours of work on the fake that I had saved. I had explicitly saved it after I finished it, but when I opened it back up after the crash, all that work was gone. So I decided to save myself a headache and not bother making the matchcard. It's a gimmick upon itself that doesn't really add anything anyway. The silver lining here is that it gave me a chance to go back and dial back on the amount of edits, so I think it looks much better than it did, but it's missing some little things here and there. It was just all a bit too much for something that was relatively simple. The funny part of this is that I'm not into the Bella Twins. I mean, they're beautiful women and all, but they just never did it for me like Trish Stratus, Kelly Kelly, and Fallon Henley (currently) do for me. I promised I would make this however, and I try to be a man of my word. They are also a significant part of professional wrestling history, and I can't just ignore that. So here we are...after hours of annoyance.
FRPW will still be a recurring series for as long as I am able to keep going, but I'm not sure who'll be next. I warn you now that Paige will not be an option, as I like her even less then the Bella Twins. Until then however, enjoy this fake, and as always, stay safe out there.
