I'd personally go with option 1. Only because once May rolls around I hope I'll be enjoying some TEW 2020. I think the promotion removals and worker cap is a sensible thing to do. I have always had fun with RWC!

Excellent update. I like the idea that you're simming some years to see how things pan out with the AI running things! Certainly looking forward to TEW 2020 and this. Any idea how much additional work you'll need to do once TEW 2020 releases?

This is cool to see! Great idea.

Looking good. Caught up on the Jericho v Bucks and it isn't easy...I have reading the Dev Blogs for 2020 and I think there is going to be an experience stat that could be used to boost a true vet like Jericho...If you have not read those then I'd recommend it as it'll give you some ideas of what might need adapting for 2020.</p><p> </p><p> Only thing I’d look at changing and I don’t know how you would manage it - I bloody love PAC (I always back the Brits) but...I do feel like Cody has been red hot on the mic, especially since Dynamite started, so I was expecting him to be in the top 5 for talkers. Now I know the game sometimes jumbles people around in these lists so they are not absolute…but he has been terrific.</p><p> </p><p> Deffo HYPED for KTB 2020!</p><p> </p><p> PS.

Loved the WWE Company profile. Could you share AEW's?

Thank you.

Ah great. What about people like...CM Punk, Kevin Nash, Steve Austin etc. Those who are semi-retired or potentially retired (you never know in this business since Edge has even come back).

This sounds like an interesting idea for a mod! I do like to snatch up free agents mind you. Is there plans to have any?

I am actually a 5), but I don't think that is the most helpful response. I guess either 4) or 5). Although 5) does seem like a big job just to get it in line with the current WWE product. 4) Seems like a happy medium, people can always change it back to 60% and those who use other promotions won't have any change to their playstyles. I'd also echo the thanks you have received in previous posts. How do I wrap some text with spoiler tags? Sorry it's a very noob question, just don't want to spoil any shows for people who haven't watched them.

Thought I would throw in some AEW specific bits that might be worth considering to update. The Roster updates are people who have worked either on AEW Dynamite or Dark in the last 8 weeks. These are just some tweaks I would personally make before firing up a game (apart from new workers, I have no clue where to start about statting those!). AEW Roster Updates Diamond Dallas Page – Add as PPA (contract should probably limit him to TV & Events only) Priscilla Kelly – Add as PPA Austin Gunn – PPA/Written, They have annouced he has "signed" but I haven't seen too many other details as to what this entails Angel Rose (As “Diamante”, although might not be possible as existing worker with this name) - PPA Taz – Written Contract Yuga Hayashi (As “El Linderman) (Also update works in USA as well) Tomahawk TT - PPA Mike Posey - PPA Jamie Hayter - PPA (Made 2 apperances in October so might be a bit long ago) Name Updates & Miscellaneous Melanie Cruise – Change name to “Mel” Add Road Agent “Sometimes” to Dustin Rhodes, Christopher Daniels & Awesome Kong – They have some backstage roles relating to coaching. Alex Marvez is set to announce on Events. Remove or with Tony Schiavone. Tony Schiavone & Dasha Gonzalez are set as AEW Dark Announcers - I'd remove both and just have Excalibur on his own. They seem rotate a talent in as colour. Might change with Taz arriving. I think AEW Dark was set wrong when I first booted it up...AEW Dark should be Wednesday & Shown Tuesday. I believe it was set to Friday. Manager Updates Cody – Arn Anderson Kip Sabian - Penelope Ford Chris Jericho – Jake Hager (maybe) Peter Avalon – Leva Bates Leva Bates – Peter Avalon MJF – Wardlow Face/Heel Updates Britt Baker - Heel New Workers & Additions to the Roster Shojo Machiko – Known as “Machiko” in some promotions - PPA Skyler Moore – Real name - Sierra Erny - PPA Len Olson (As Luther) - PPA Jennifer Sterger – Personality Alex Mendez “Goldenboy” - Announcer (Still listed on their website) Stable #Stronghearts El Linderman T Hawk CIMA The Dark Order Alex Reynolds & John Silver – Dark Order? The Nightmare Collective Add Luther Title Defence History AEW Women’s World – Riho October 16th vs Britt Baker November 9th vs Emi Sakura January 1st vs Britt Baker, Hikaru Shida, Nyla Rose January 8th vs Kris Statlander AEW Tag Team – Adam Page & Kenny Omega – Won January 21st 2020 Previous Champions – Frankie Kazarian & Scorpio Sky November 9th vs Private Party, Lucha Brothers November 13th vs Chris Jericho & Sammy Guevara December 18th vs The Young Bucks AEW World – Crhis Jericho October 16th vs Darby Allin November 9th vs Cody November 27th vs Scorpio Sky I haven't had much time to play the new database, but I do think that some workers might be a bit underrated with their in-ring skills and popularity. I can see a couple of suggestions in this thread that I agree with but I am no where near an expert at the stats and they are quite subjective IMO. In the October update I did have a hard time putting on “B level” matches until I signed some new talent. It could be bad booking on my behalf mind you! Thanks for your hard work on this mod, it really does make the game for me! Cheers,

Fleisch has mentioned in his thread about making this change to his mod, but as I understand, it is a big undertaking so might take a little while before it appears.

This is a fantasic series of mods. I have been waiting for the October update so I can start with AEW and begin their TV run properly but have been doing a few casual plays to get used to the game in the run up. One thing I wanted to query about the Broadcasting deals for PPV events...I don't know too much about how the US system works, but I am unable to float Events/PPVs on B/R Live and another standard PPV provider like Dish or DirecTv. This is usually because it won't let me show the event on multiple broadcasters for the same Region. I don't have this issue with TV shows. Is this just a limitation of the games mechanics or am I misunderstanding how previous PPV events have been broadcast? Seems like many were on B/R Live and "Traditional PPV". This opens up another question about how it would work with WWE and their standard PPV model and the WWE Network. Many thanks in advance.
