Ring of Dreams 11


Quote from El Mariachi Muerte on 16 July 2025, 04:47TOP THREE MOMENTS:
Holy crap, how does one choose? This was a banger of a show from top to bottom. The hits just kept coming. I think if pushed, these three moments stood out above the rest.
- Doom/Nox/Foley - There was so much in that segment. We had the return of Doom. We had the injection from the Odyssey Pool... Then we had the reveal that it was Nox all along. I think this was a massive moment for Nox particularly, and having a return of a character as massive as the return of Doom was be almosy overshadowed by the reveal of all that Nox has done to someone who was supposedly his friend was huge. Gave him great heel points!
2. Cronus - We saw such a story woven throughout the Arcadia segments. I loved so much digging into the lore behind our world and how it exists within the earth reality of the outside world. We haven't seen that to this date, and this was special. The moment that we saw revealed exactly who Christos Athas was in reality was massive. I think I had worked out what was happening when he revealed his name in the proceeding segment, but it didn't at all take away from that moment. MASSIVE!
3. The Sunshine / Zookeeper / Boswick Reveal: I loved the reveal of the happiness organism and how it was captured here worked soooo much better than anything I was thinking of how it could be used. It gives some real depth to Sunshine which will be so fun to work off. The fact that the organism is dying is particularly interesting to explore and I cannot wait to see how that plays out. But if anyone can honestly say they were expecting a Boswick return here, GTFO. That was epic, and so well done!
BURNING QUESTIONS:
- Will Boswick and Doom come back into the fray now, or are they going to be more of a creative use for now?
- What is going to happen with Sunshine (selfish question here)?
- How does everything we have built here lead itself towards whatever Dean has in that giant brain for Red Snow?
MY FAVOURITE PROMO OF THE WEEK:
Roses and their Thorns: Man, this one was damned good. It dug into the history of the characters, how rich that history was. It unpacked that in a way that only Tombstone could, and then it packaged it so nicely into an analogy that was so beautifully put together.
The way he brought it home at the end was just so beautifully done too. Comparing burying him to planting a rose in the ground. It all fit so damned well.
HAVE YOUR SAY:
EMM
Having Caido revealed as the leader of the Watchers was huge. Saving him only so he can kill him personally, that's cold as hell. I love it. Bring it on!
SUNSHINE
I think I've said a lot above. I loved the reveal, and I loved how he was used throughout the storyline. Great job.

Quote from Harold Attano on 17 July 2025, 03:08TOP THREE MOMENTS:
- Arcadia I-V – I have always been a man intrigued by the Lore of Arcadia, the why of it all, and explanations of how this all came to be and how deep does it all go. These segments were like a cool glass of water on a hot summer's day, serving to quench my thirst. The fact that Zeus is only a second generation of Arcadian’s with his father being Christos Athas (Cronus) and everything from the outside has been discarded. I have so many questions about our origins here in Arcadia and how deep this all goes.
- He Who Laughs Last – Doom is still alive, Nox blew up the Pantheon, revelation on top of revelation here. This was a lot to digest, I’ve had the feeling that Nox was pulling levers in the background for quite some time and to be proven right was just fantastic. The Reunion of Foley and Doom was heartwarming. But I’m also worried about how much of target is painted on Nox’s back.
- Daddy Issues – No wonder George was such a prick to Jackson, Jackson was Zeus’s son all along. I am unsure how we should categorize all these revelations that happened on this show. I didn’t see this coming; I was sure that Jackson was just George’s least favorite son, and we were seeing him get the cold shoulder with CJ. I didn’t expect the fact that Jackson wasn’t his son for a second. This one came from out of nowhere and caught me off guard.
BURNING QUESTIONS:
Who’s DB’s daddy?
What will Zeus do to Nox, will Zeus apologize to Foley?
What will the fallout between Doom and Nox be?
What’s Graves going to do without his right hand, Lucien?
How will Harold react to Michaela essentially being intimidated into following Way?
Is Arcadia a Penal Colony turn experiment?
Is there anyone in Arcadia that still remembers the outside or did Zeus purge them all?
MY FAVOURITE PROMO OF THE WEEK:
Say Your Prayers – I really love how Mel took and weaponized the concept of prayer to great effect on Graves. I loved the story of how he, “Stopped whispering into the void”. Telling the Reverend his god wasn’t coming. A well written promo bringing home the OSW World Championship to Felix Foley.
HAVE YOUR SAY:
Nox – I was flabbergasted at the end of the night. I didn’t expect Nox to be the one who blew up the Pantheon (because he would’ve risked his own life). I wonder how he survived his own attempt on Doom and the rest of the Pantheon. Looking at it now objectively it makes so much sense though, Nox would take the risk to remove the restraints on his experiments and what he could do to gain more control.
Harold – Feel like Harold’s been in a bit of a slump recently. I am wondering how everything now is going to play out with Klaus Way and Michaela after what happened after Way ended Solus and Ajax. I am really intrigued as to how this will all play out as we grow closer to Red Snow.

Quote from Jackson Cade on 18 July 2025, 03:50TOP THREE MOMENTS:
- I think I actually want to give this to Your Watch Has Ended because it finally brings a close to John The Revelator. He was such an influential figure for a massive chunk of OSW, not to mention being the driving force behind both the Red Light Incident as well as the focus on the door itself. It almost felt strange seeing him die so unceremoniously. But, as said, the watch ended.
- Arcadia as a line of segments was just fucking phenomenal. I loved seeing the history of Arcadia's creation, finally getting to the meat and potatoes of what it is and why it's been created. I'm wondering very heavily just what happened in the old world to cause all of this. And, more importantly, just what lies beyond considering contact went silent. Answers a lot of questions, leaves plenty more.
- He Who Laughs Last was absolutely insane. I was hoping that Doom was still alive, especially considering how smart he was. I think this segment however really feels like a coming out party for Nox. The character has been thrown headfirst into a pretty massive storyline here and watching everything unfold should be an absolute treat.
BURNING QUESTIONS:
- Just who is Destructo's real dad?
- What comes next for Cade after learning who HIS real dad is?
- What happened outside of Arcadia?
- What comes next for the Zookeeper? AKA Sebastian Boswick.
MY FAVOURITE PROMO OF THE WEEK:
Giving this to Say Your Prayers with an amazing Foley promo. I really do think Mel was deserving of his win here. Really poetic read all around that I think played on its theme quite well.
HAVE YOUR SAY:
Jackson Cade: Where do I start? I had always kinda joked to myself that Cade is Zeus' kid because of the Perseus call sign. But to see that come to fruition was absolutely mind blowing. This really adds a lot to what's going on with Cade and I think delving into why his parentage was hidden as well as George Cade's reasoning for what he did should be nothing short of amazing.
Hatchet: Poor Hatch came up short and didn't feature too heavily outside of his match. Looking forward to seeing what he does going forwards though!
Ajax The Adonis: We pour one out for poor Ajax. He was fun to play while it lasted and I can't wait to see Klaus potentially pay for this.

Quote from The Night on 18 July 2025, 09:52TOP THREE MOMENTS:
1. Daddy Issues takes the top spot. Holy shit, that is a hell of a double reveal. Not only was George Cade not Jackson's biological father, but we immediately find out that Zeus is? This is going to change quite a lot of things regarding relationships with the former Perseus. Will he be forgiven for leading the Seekers and starting a rebellion against his dad? Will the power dynamics of Arcadia be altered somewhat to fit this reveal? I dunno, but I'm floored with this news and I'm excited to see where things go from here.
2. The Arcadia series of segments take this spot for me. We finally get to learn about what Arcadia really was and some idea of the state of the world just beyond the door. The prisons are full and apparently nobody will miss the convicts that make them up. Arcadia was supposedly a secret and Cronus had an impressive resume with an essay about sentience that made him the leader of the project. Of course, the reveal kind of raises further questions, but I'm sure those will be answered in due time.
3. He Who Laughs Last will round it out. Good news, Doom's alive and Foley has been cleared of blowing up the House of Sovereigns! Bad news, Nox is an evil motherfucker who actually blew up the House of Sovereigns and became Arcadia's most wanted man. He mentioned that Doom was obsolete in the reveal monologue. Does that mean he sees the rest of Arcadia that way too? I'm stunned about what transpired and I hope that the Best Friends reunite and kick Nox's ass from here to Sunday.
BURNING QUESTIONS:
Who is Destructo's real father if not Maxwell? Is it Nox, like we all fear it is? Or is it someone else on the roster that's a better person than the likes of him, Jasper, and countless others like we all hope it is?
The Zookeeper was Sebastian Boswick the whole time? How did he manage to hide this secret from the rest of his ACA buddies if he didn't kill them too? What sort of cleansing will he perform within Arcadia and what's he hoping to accomplish from it?
MY FAVOURITE PROMO OF THE WEEK:
Gemini's House of Mirrors takes it for me. I love how she took the concept of the truth staring back at you like a mirror and completely dismantled it by talking about how it only shows what people want to see. It was a high concept piece that worked out well, I feel. Makes me worried about going up against her in the final season, ngl.
HAVE YOUR SAY:
Night: Night dropped the bombshell about Gemini, and now all of Arcadia hates her as a result. I have to wonder what Night's definition of "justice" is if getting the former Rogue vilified by the populace is a part of his game plan. I also have to wonder what it was he told Attano if it prevented him from coming out to make the save for her when she needed it the most. Whatever it was, it seemed to affect him just as much as Narcissa telling Night about who really set the bomb. I'm wondering to see what the fallout of both these segments will be, and I'm eager to find out where we're led.

Quote from Jasper Redgrave on 18 July 2025, 10:05TOP THREE MOMENTS:
1. Daddy Issues - The number one surprise for me this night was definitely the reveal of Jackson Cade being The Baron's son. I like this moment especially because it creates a lot of questions.
2. The End of The Line - I cannot lie, I sort of had a feeling that we'd be losing Gravedigger here at Ring Of Dreams. What I didn't expect was the betrayal from Eclipse and her affectively walking away from OSW.
3. The Zookeeper - Of all the possibilities, I definitely did not expect a return from Sebastian Boswick. I also loved how this one closed out, giving us a lot of hope for a ACA return potentially.
BURNING QUESTIONS:
- How does Jackson react to finding out who his father is?
- Does this mean Jasper will back off of Jackson a little now? Or will be continue to try to ruin Cade's life?
- What does this mean for George Cade?
- Do we get an ACA return?
- Who the fuck is DB's dad now?
- What does Ezekiel do from here? He's alone and he's got one hell of a nemesis on his ass!
MY FAVOURITE PROMO OF THE WEEK:
Say Your Prayers - I'm so glad to see the belt on the character known as Felix Foley finally. He has been right there on the cusp several times and now, all the glory is his. Congrats Mel.
HAVE YOUR SAY:
Well, definitely didn't expect the one who's been leading the opposition the whole time against Zeus to be revealed as his son. I look forward to seeing what this means. What will Jackson's reaction be? Does this bring the new tag team champions closer by chance? Jasper has always been on the side of The Baron, after all. So much can come from this.. I guess we'll soon find out.

Quote from Destructo Boy on 18 July 2025, 10:35TOP THREE MOMENTS:
1. Well the first spot has to be Arcadia as a whole. A brilliant set of flashbacks with just enough info each time to intrigue as it ramped up. This felt very Vault-tech esque for the most part in the best way and the slow ramp up with the reveal of who the original inhabitants of Arcadia was, the reveal of Chronos's real name to the final segment that reveals the truth of Arcadia finally, seemingly a last bastion for humanity. Brilliant stuff and leaves just enough to the imagination that you still wonder how fucked Earth outside truly is outside those doors.
2. Gotta go with The Zookeeper here. First the hit on why Charlie is like he is from Kleen fits so perfectly, and makes absolute sense why he's been losing his mind over this past year and then we get the reveal on who the Keeper is and fuck if that isn't one of the biggest twists for a long time. Boswick using the Kingdom and its reach to cleanse and santize Arcadia is a beautiful twisted reveal and I love it so much. This should be a huge story in these last six months and it's going to be fun as hell to see.3. Very heavily debated between two here but I have to go with He Who Laughs Last. I knew Doom was way too smart to die like that and I marked out like a kid when he came out. Using the Odyssey's Pools water to free Foley from Scissors just like it did last time was a great touch and then the big reveal. That it wasn't Felix who blew up the Pantheon...it was Nox. The whisper of 'you're my friend' both seems hypocritical and so heartbreaking from Doom especially with Felix there and Nox abusing him felt like absolute karma. Not sure where this goes from here but hell if I don't want an even reluctant Besties reunion here to get some revenge against Nox.
BURNING QUESTIONS:
- How long will Michaela be by Klaus's side and will Harold be able to save his daughter before she meets the same end as the rest of the Freaks?
- What exactly happened to the world outside of Arcadia?
- Will Lucien be able to destroy the Church of Graves or will Ezekial burn the betrayer down before he gets the chance?
- Can Muerte survive the wrath of the Mariachi's?
- Will Gemini be able to survive now Arcadia knows what she did?
- What will Jackson do now he knows the truth and will Jasper continue to come after him even with Zeus's threat hanging overhead?
- Speaking of Zeus, how fucked is Nox now the truth is revealed?
MY FAVOURITE PROMO OF THE WEEK:
Hard to pick here but I'm going with A Thousand Words here. Daws is still on absolute fire with Jackson and he once again crafted a great story here with the picture of the Cade family.
HAVE YOUR SAY:
Well fuck we joked about it but now James knows old Maxwell was never his father. I love the mystery at the end here where the idea of who it is lingers over him and it felt like he almost knew. Like a secret he didn't want to acknowledge. Nox being not condescending or mean to the kid but more trying to get him to understand was brilliant too and I am hyped as hell to see what happens next and who the possibilities for his real dad could be.

Quote from Narcissa Balenciaga on 18 July 2025, 10:58TOP THREE MOMENTS:
1. Arcadia 1-5, I'm a big history nerd and love lore drops, this shit is right up my alley and I was not expecting so much info in one night. From how Arcadia was created as a penal colony to the man who started everything is Cronus so much shorter life down here than I thought. I wonder how the first prisoners down here were outside of him.
2. Daddy issues was another big lore drop and something definitely story and character changing for Jackson Cade in particular. He's Zeus' son?! How is that going to play out this week and the rest of this volume?
3. The Zookeeper, fucking Boswick using The Zoo as the original way to cleanse the world and spread his message. Ive been trying to figure out who the Zookeeper was for a long time and that was never on my bingo card.
BURNING QUESTIONS:
How does Michaela truly feel about Klaus now?
Are we going to get ways to get censored again?
What is the above world like now?
MY FAVOURITE PROMO OF THE WEEK:
Say your prayers, well done Mel. When Mel turns everything on and brings his A game, its something truly spectacular in this world of writing. He brought his A game and now has the title, good luck taking it from him.
HAVE YOUR SAY:
Narcissa lost the battle but might have won the war against Gemini. Everyone knows what Gemini did now and she has to live with that. Gemini seemingly has Night now to deal with so I wonder where Narcissa goes from here.

3. The Zookeeper, fucking Boswick using The Zoo as the original way to cleanse the world and spread his message. Ive been trying to figure out who the Zookeeper was for a long time and that was never on my bingo card.
BURNING QUESTIONS:
How does Michaela truly feel about Klaus now?
Are we going to get ways to get censored again?
What is the above world like now?
MY FAVOURITE PROMO OF THE WEEK:
Say your prayers, well done Mel. When Mel turns everything on and brings his A game, its something truly spectacular in this world of writing. He brought his A game and now has the title, good luck taking it from him.
HAVE YOUR SAY:
Narcissa lost the battle but might have won the war against Gemini. Everyone knows what Gemini did now and she has to live with that. Gemini seemingly has Night now to deal with so I wonder where Narcissa goes from here.

Quote from Klaus Way on 19 July 2025, 00:11TOP THREE MOMENTS:
- Eclipse noping out of OSW. I know real life stuff forced it but I kind of liked how completely out of the blue and unhinged 'The End Of The Line' was. We find out Gravedigger can die now, and then he does, and then Eclipse just hands in her briefcase and LEAVES.
- DOOM IS BACK BABY. And then Nox reveals it was he who 'killed' Doom!
- The entire Arcadia numbered series throughout the show gave us some heavy twists and lore drops, but I think the biggest moment of all had to be that big reveal at the end - Arcadia is under a GREEK ISLAND MOUNTAIN!? Absolute craziness. I can't wait to see what this means and if our Arcadians will ever make it to the real world.
BURNING QUESTIONS:
- NERO IS LUCIEN!? What does this mean for Graves? And even moreso what does it mean for Nero?
- Attano now knows what Night knows, but will it ever be made public. YES comes the answer just a few short segments and matches later. Bad girl Gemini arc incoming?
- MR KLEEN RETURN!? ZOOKEEPER REVEAL!? And it's BOSWICK!? So much happened in that segment, its only not in the top moments because there were so many good segments in this show, tbh. What will Boswick/Zookeeper do now he has revealed himself?
- Destructo has even more daddy issues than we realised. Who is his father, if not TBM?
- Wait, Cade also has Daddy Issues (even the seg title agrees)!? Do we have an Arcadian Hugh Hefner just impregnating everyone!? Oh wait, its Zeus, so the answer is probably yes. It would be quite funny if it turns out he's also Destructo's dad.
MY FAVOURITE PROMO OF THE WEEK:
Has to be Foley's 'Say Your Prayers'. Deserving of a world title win indeed.
HAVE YOUR SAY:
Klaus:
Well, well, well, what a psychopath this guy is. He killed both of his former freaks in cold blood, right there in the ring. I like that you never know what you're getting with Klaus. It wasn't long ago he was being hailed as a wild card, and I think that still rings true. Also interesting to see the dynamic with Michaela at the end of 'My Legacy', and looking forward to seeing where that leads with Harold.Drewitt:
Glad I squeezed a title run in before the big man hung up his boots. It was quite jarring for Drewitt to have no exit segment, but on reflection it feels like it quite suits the man who prior to his stint in Olympus was so enigmatic many people questioned his very existence. It feels like he might have been the kind of guy to slink into the night.Apologies this feedback is late - the month gap threw me off majorly! Business as usual for the next show, promise!

Quote from Anton Savor on 20 July 2025, 04:59TOP THREE MOMENTS:
1. i enjoyed the end of the line pretty good. i mean it was alot that went on there. i didn't come into this show believing that eclipse would end up relinquishing her invasion briefcase and just walking away from osw in general. also finding out that gravedigger hadn't been the ferryman for a little while now, and that tombstone and the reaper colluded to make all of this so was an interesting touch to it as well.
2. that zookeeper reveal was crazy as hell. the fact that boswick used the zoo to essentially do his bidding is something i couldn't of imagined but i guess for him, it does make sense as well. it was a little eye opener as well, getting that inside scoop on sunshine and why he is the way he is. ive enjoyed the development of this character throughout the past few months, from what he was when he first debuted, to what hes become leading up to that moment.
3. felix foley winning the world title was cool to witness. i feel like it's something thats been a long time coming, but it's happening right when it should be. and he did it in the most felix foley fashion, being dealt a ton of punishment but continuing to get up when most others in his position might falter. of course he didn't get the opportunity to celebrate for too long before there was another issue being presented to him, but either way, huge win for him.
BURNING QUESTIONS:
is boswick here to stay?
whats going on outside of arcadia?
will emm be able to survive emg?
who is destructos real dad?
just how fucked is nox?
MY FAVOURITE PROMO OF THE WEEK:
every promo i came across was a great read, but i wanna show love to the bad apple. the hatchet character has such a genuine and authentic aura to him that he can just flow and flow and really put some shit together. i really did enjoy reading that one.
HAVE YOUR SAY:
its a bittersweet feeling seeing this story antons been apart of these past months conclude (is it even concluding lol) but i've enjoyed from the very minute it began to now. i've been able to learn alot about my character in terms of how i wanna write him and where i wanna take it just by reading segments, and going through the week to week challenges of writing these promos. as it pertains to the storyline, i woulda never imagined boswick being the zookeeper we've been trying to figure out all this time, but i know you should expect the unexpected when youre reading an osw show. but i do greatly appreciate the time and effort put into this story to make it as great as it turned out. i know it was some pivots that had to be thrown in here and there so your work definitely does not go unnoticed, whoever you were that had a hand in this. still very excited for the future tho and what it has to offer.
