EFED your favourite kind of wrestling?
EFED Wrestling or fantasy wrestling is the game of role-playing with statistic-based games set in the world of professional wrestling. The storyline is determined by the characters created and the manner in which the stories are relayed or told. Wrestling games were first featured in wrestling magazines in the mid 1980s and by the late 1980s games had started to appear on the Internet. By the early 1990s bulletin boards were introduced to facilitate the exchange of information for players in role-playing as well as connecting by email which lead to websites for enthusiasts being set up and communities and news groups were then started for enthusiasts of EFED wrestling. E-wrestling is a term that has now evolved from the Internet based on professional wrestling where the player (or handler) creates a character and manages the career of the character in a fictional wrestling federation known as the E-Fed or E-Federation. Results are determined by a number of factors depending on the particular fantasy wrestling leagues. Some leagues determine the victors by the creative writings whilst other leagues are based on storylines told through interviews and matches. Below is a list of the best EFED wrestling sites on the Internet today.
