Introduction

Well, I guess you can mark down The Shane as the newest member of blog fever.

I don't really have a lot on my mind right now, just got bored and figured that now was as good a time as any to start this puppy up since the Cowboys don't come on until later this afternoon. With that said, I guess we'll just do a quick background for those of you unfamiliar with The Shane and my work.

First of all, most of you will probably know me as the fedhead over at UCW on FW Central. It hasn't been the smoothest of roads over the past year or so that I've been doing this, but I must say that I'm quite happy with the way that things are going. Past endeavors into fedhead-hood left much to be desired and even more to say from a turnover standpoint.

However, I cannot say that for this fed. I believe that I have some of the absolute best handlers that this hobby has ever seen, and I'm proud of it. We haven't really lost that many wrestlers and because that, we're able to put together one hell of a product because I don't have to worry about who's going to bail on me next.

Also, I have assembled quite the crew as far as help goes and they have been phenomenal in helping me get cards out since I took over this thing by myself. Josh, Shane, Mike, and Dan have been really great with getting matches to me in a respectable amount of time with help from a few others here and there.

We're actually trying to finish up a card as we speak. The only problem is that I can't find bios for the two guys in the match I'm trying to write, leaving me with the time that is currently being used to blog. But outside of that, things have been running decently smooth and I don't really have much to complain about.

But the reason that most of you may know me is the character that I've been running for just about five years now, "Sensational" Steven Shane.

For the better part of my career, I was simply a mark for the A1 circuit. I would be lying if I said that Steven Shane had better success anywhere else. Two tag team title runs and a Cyber Title run leave me very comfortable with the way I ran my character in the A1E. The only title that alluded me was the World Heavyweight Title, but even then, I'm sure no one would criticize me for not pulling through on that.

I haven't really had that many title matches, but still, coming away empty handed can be very disappointing. However, as I said, I don't think anyone is quick to label Shane as the guy who couldn't win it. My first title match was against arguably the best "potential" champion that A1E ever saw in Euclid. No one came close to touching this guy while he had that title. I was on the BC while he had his run and it seemed like he was always winning on a squash week-in and week-out. I, however, managed to take him to a draw and to this day, that might be my crowning achievement, as horrible as that sounds. Unfortunately, Dave walked away from e-fedding before we could really get our all-out settlement, leaving me standing with an 0-1-1 record against him.

My second time around was against the longest reigning champ that A1E has ever seen in Ken Cloverleaf and my third dance was with the man who is arguably the "best ever" champion in Housefly.

After that, I left A1 and made my way to EPW before filtering out into other leagues such as CSWA, MCW, LVW, NEW, WFW, and MBE.

I'm pretty much everywhere now and there aren't too many people in this community that don't know me or even talk to me on a weekly basis. However, I didn't really have that much to talk about on this first blog entry, so I wanted to make sure that if there was still anyone scratching their heads that they could stop now.
