Can I be Stone Cold Steve Austin? - C Y R E N - 01-28-2013
It has never been explicitly stated that XWF does not ALLOW real-wrestler characters(though it's never happened and that genre is a dying breed...), but for the fun of it, I was considering joining as Stone Cold.
Could I do it?

If we allow a person to control a real wrestler, you have to live up to their known ability. For example - if you're Stone Cold you'd be expected to be able to perform as him and remain among the top names, the same as he was known during his prime. You can't have a joke Stone Cold or anything like that, and if you lose as him more than Stone Cold would have lost in his prime, you lose the privilege to be him. We're going to be very strict about real names IF we let people play them. You're welcome to give it a try and see if you can live up to the Stone Cold legacy.
PS: You'd be allowed to make adjustments to his character somewhat, but certain things would need to remain true to his known form. For example you could make up his girlfriend or wife, and make up his side profession if he has one, and make up various storylines for his RPs to keep the doors open for depth and creativity... but you would NOT be able to use somebody other than him as your picbase, and you would not be able to completely turn him into something else (you can't have him act like a white supremacist or go into any extreme changes) because otherwise you might as well just make a new character.
Sound good? Let's have this be a trial run and see where it goes.
