Are “Contract on the Line” matches legitimate? Is the Trademark Tommy Maclin Stipulation legit? The Right Coast Pro Wrestling Delaware Crew Corner Answers.



Just recently the CEO of Right Coast Pro Mister Crister announced a match-up for the upcoming April 20 show RCP-3 “Tertius Oculus” between Ryan “Adrenaline” Rush and new comer Trademark Tommy Maclin. He added a stipulation to the match that if Trademark Tommy Maclin could beat Ryan Rush, then he would gain a permanent roster spot and contract with Right Coast Pro. The question people ask is “are these stipulations legitimate?” It seems that nearly everything associated with Pro Wrestling comes with the stigmata of legitimacy. My answer to the question asked is sometimes.
I know does not help with the Stigmata, and not much of answer I know, but this is pro wrestling and you never know with some promotions. I can tell you in this case the stipulation associated with the match is legitimate and genuine. Trademark Tommy Maclin must earn that contract, and with Ryan Rush as his opponent that will be a mountain to climb for sure.
Here is how the whole “Contract Match” stipulation came about. Right Coast Pro Wrestling CEO Mister Crister recently received an invitation to a private training expo at The Monster Factory, which is a wrestling school in New Jersey. While Right Coast Pro has its own Development Program, see website for details, Mister Crister always has his eye on new athletes. Liking what he saw at this showcase of talent, Mister Crister invited Tommy Maclin to come visit Right Coast Pro. Tommy graciously accepted the invitation and arrived early to the March 9th Nulli Secundus Event. Mister Crister, a fan of Renegade Training, is also a fan of being able to produce in adverse situations just as they train for within Renegade Training. He asked Tommy if he had his gear, told him to suit up as he wanted to see what he could do. Tommy Maclin was first sent out in a “Lumberjack Match” featuring Ryan “Adrenaline” Rush vs Chick Magnet Mozart Fontaine as a lumberjack. Later in the night, the CEO, also informed Tommy that he would be participating in the Right Coast Pro Wrestling Heavyweight Championship Tournament Event – Quest to be the Best Battle Secundus where he made an excellent showing prompting Mister Crister to invite Tommy back in April, despite a full roster of over twenty Elite Pro’s.  Here is what you need to understand, every promotion would love to stack their roster full of the great pro wrestling talent throughout the world, but economics often come into factor. You can have only so many matches, and you have only so much money for payroll. So at some point roster spots, as they are now in Right Coast Pro, are at a premium and while Tommy Maclin was technically under RCP contract on March 9, this was just a formality with no strings attached. Every competitor has to sign a contract before stepping in a RCP ring, the difference is “that contract” is not a contract the guarantees a permanent roster spot and becoming a “regular” so to speak on the show.
The contract offered on April 20th , however, is a contract that will put Trademark Tommy Maclin on the RCP Roster and website. There is no question of legitimacy here, if he wins he is in, if he loses, well he may be back at some point for another one off type of match deal but knowing Mister Crister it is doubtful.
