Don't....seriously.
Dear Aspiring Fed-Head;
This piece is intended to dissuade you from creating an efed. Now before you click the back button or the [x] and close this page, never to return to RoughKut again, please hear me out.
I know, I know. You see it done. You feel like you can do it yourself ...and much better by the way. So you find a website like RoughKut.com and learn how to open up your very own efed. STOP!!! Read this article before you make that jump, fellah.
Do you know what it takes to even open an efed? Click here to take a look: E-Fed Guide. Go ahead, I'll wait. Then come back and read this article.
Listen, there is an estimate of anywhere from 10,000 – 50,000 efeds on the internet. I’d make an educated guess that about 95% of those efeds are struggling for different reasons.
Maybe some of those feds are brand spankin’ new and have no following. Maybe the efeds are poorly ran and the roster has bailed. I could go on and on. The fact remains, they far outnumber the successful efeds.
Take a look at my efed database. There’s around 500 feds in it as we speak and those are being moderated for activity at all times. If you click the link that says “New Feds” you’ll see over 100 feds added in the last 30 days. This number has not gotten any smaller, only larger. That means that every 30 or so days, 100 “brand new” efeds are born. Those are only the feds that know about RoughKut. Imagine how many feds are born into other areas.
Take these things into consideration before starting an efed. Fed heads literally everyday ask me how to get more members. I have created every means possible to promote efeds. The fact is there are more feds than ewrestlers it seems. So it’s no wonder your brand new efed hasn’t gotten any new members in months. Then you are forced to close up shop and end up jaded over the whole debacle.
Here’s what you should do in my humble opinion:
Become a STAFF MEMBER.
Yes, that right. It would involve you putting your ego (yes ego) aside and actually helping one of the many struggling efeds become better. Yes, I know. You would be the greatest president ever to grace the internet. You have the best ideas for angles and you could write circles around the WWE creative team. Let me ask you this: What good is all that talent if you are spending your time fighting a losing battle trying to fill a roster?
I’m not saying it’s not a good idea to start an efed with good intentions. What I am saying is, the odds are against you. There are probably just as many indie professional wrestling federations in the world as there are efeds. The difference is they are local. The internet is global. So join a staff. This will help you in the long run. Let me explain why.
Let’s pretend you decided to join the staff of a great efed you know of and have been following. You see a roster full of potential champs and you have the ability to groom them and provide awesome storylines for them. After while they begin to respect and admire your leadership. One day, the fed owner decides that the efed you helped grow has run its course. You’ve got a roster full of talent that like you. You don’t want them to spread out and seek new homes. So THEN you decide to pick up where your former boss has left off. Where do you think all the fresh talent will go? Who do you think they’ll follow? Yes, you guessed it. YOU! Bingo, that’s when you start a fed.
SO before you pollute the internet with yet another webpage, please take these tips into consideration.
However if you simply MUST be the leader and the boss and you need 10-20 people stroking your mighty ego… think about this.
Do you have an original idea for an efed? Do you have a killer concept that adds something to ewrestling? Do you have a page design that is so amazing that it will draw visitors out of curiosity? Is your writing so astute, that people will flock to your webpage in droves? If not, you will probably be the next big flop.
Do yourself and ewrestling in general a favor and join a staff. Become a commish (now called GM), become a VP or whatever. Just help others before you help your ego. In the long run, it will be in your favor that you did so.
