Welcome, wrestlefriends, to SCZ’s “Fantasy Booking Friday”!

<I totally didn't miss last week! Stop trying to gaslight me!>

I actually did miss last week, and it was no one’s fault but my own. I apologize, please forgive me.

Each Friday, we’ll be presenting a scenario for a fictional wrestling storyline or premium live event, and it’s up to you, dear wrestlefriend, to play armchair booker and decide how you would make it happen. Your submissions can be as straight forward, or as goofy as you like, the only rule is: keep it in the realm of wrestling (Death Battle already booked Goku vs Superman).

This week’s scenario:

It’s 2024, and Tony Khan has a(nother) huge announcement! TK opens Dynamite with the unveiling of the AEW Jobber’s Championships! That’s right, plural! There will be both a men’s and a women’s division, and the first champions will be determined in two 10-person battle royals to be held on the next Rampage. The Jobber’s division has requirements: You must have a negative win/loss record in order to challenge for the Jobber belt, and if a wrestler has enough successful defenses to achieve a positive record, they’ll be stripped of the title!

How will you book the Jobber divisions? Who will be your first champions? What do you imagine the belts would look like?

Just to be clear, this is not a contest, there are no prizes to be won. This is purely for entertainment. Happy booking!

    😂 I dont fantasy book but I love this lmao

    Serpentico becomes the R-Truth of the men’s side. Wins the title, almost always keeps it (which 99% of the time will be due to interference from Nyla as she just shows up and railroads him into something to get him disqualified and thus keeping the title. Nyla is just happy cause even tho Snakeman keeps the title she gets to whup him and make him lose anyway.). Loses the title on occasion but wins it back quickly and often. Eventually he’s a 100+ time Jobber Champion.

    Women’s side…Harley wins the inaugural title because she’s a goddamned menace and would somehow make it more important than the World title. Imagine the promos. Imagine the kitty facepaint!

    The belts themselves? It’s the stupidest fucking idea for a title possible, so the actual belts need to look fucking amazing to offset it in a ridiculous way. But I feel they need to be more colourful than “gold on gold on black with a small bit of paint” so they need to look amazing and gaudy as fuck.

    This is wild lmao.

    The first thing that popped into my mind is after some time the Renegade twins could feud with each other over it.

    Also agree that the belt should be gaudy and ridiculous.
