I've been hosting a 3 Play co-op in the Cverse, where each of us is the Big 3 and instead of competing for the best score, just write our own stories and have fun, we've all now hit our biggest shows since we're in July and I thought it would be fun to write out what's been going on in the biggest companies at the moment, although a lot has been edited/dumbed down for inside jokes sake and because we all act like we're 5 when we're playing this game "Competitively". Supreme Wrestling Federation (me) We've had a good year in the land of Supreme, we've just had the Supreme Challenge XL and we're about to launch a SWF Network (with its own title to boot!), hoping to take the #1 spot back in America! On the Wrestling side of things Mikey Lau defeated Remo for the SWF World Heavyweight Championship after winning our version of the Royal Rumble, and shocked the world by beating our dominate champion in a great match, however the real main event (literally and figuratively) was the long awaited showdown between good and evil. Rocky Golden survived the Supreme Cell (HIAC) against Scythe and his 'mentor' Ash Campbell in a 99 rated classic. Rocky finally got over his personal fears and defeated his sworn enemy, but this won't be the last of the odd alliance between Ash and Scythe...not by a long shot. Another big story was another ending of a long feud, this time YEARS in the making, Valiant drove Rogue, his long time rival not just off a balcony in the arena, but out of the SWF as a whole. His time as a prime manipulator in the SWF is no more. The rest of the card was just as good, as Spencer Spade beat Steven Parker in a star making performance, The Awesomeness secured the Tag Titles for a 3rd time, T-Bone Bright dominated the bitter vet Enygma in record time to secure his first title in the big leagues, Mainstream Hernandez & Matty Faith finally ended a 6 month long feud, and The Atom (Prime 98-2001 rock gimmick) beat some of the biggest upcoming names in the SWF to win the first ever "Golden Ticket" (Money In The Bank). We've had some great new signings here as well, with Marc Speed debuting in a face to face with Angry Gilmore (who won a showcase battle royale), Fro Sure, Rich & Famous, & Logan Wolfsbaine already beginning a rise up the card, while American Flash, Findlay O'Farraday are looking for a hot debut, and The Heartbreak Express, Inner City Express, James Diaz, and Xavi Ferrera are soon heading up to RIPW for some new national exposure. Things are looking quite up indeed. United States Pro Wrestling Technically the #1 promotion in the world, some "Interesting" Russo esque booking has made things questioned, but overall a good product and potential talent, and right after their big Declaration of Independence show it'll be interesting to see how the player on them handles things. The biggest story out of the 4th of July event is Nicky Champion winning his record 7th USPW World Championship (technically the 8th, but the less said about the Disqualification finish in a battle royal incident the better) from Rich Money and his cohorts in the business (Which now is made up of Johnny Money (Greed) Kirk Jameson, Papa Swoll, Dusty Ducont, and Tana Da Money (Tana The Mighty), it would be foolish to think Rich will be taking this lying down however, and a rematch has already been made. Elsewhere Steve Frehley used a botched assault by Bulldozer Brandon Smith to get an edge over Rich Law, now standing 1 to 1 in a series of matches, Pariah beat Melody in a face vs face encounter to win the women's title, National Champion Casey Valentine and Sterling Whitlock have formed an odd friendship after trading that title back and fourth for the last few months, and Alicia Strong lost in a shock upset to Tiffany Jade. Some lesser names got some air time as well as Jack Jackson beat James Justice to the rights over the letter J (not really but you laughed, you know it) and Mr Lucha III was a shock replacement partner for Roger Cage to beat the Supreme Dream Team (Grandmaster Phunk & Greg Black) for the USPW World Tag Team Titles. With some younger names like Julius Moor, Morgan Malone, NOT Regular Joe (A heel turn which caused the tears of many in our group) being pushed, and The Puerto Rican Boys, Electric Dreamer, Mutant, Hell's Bouncer, and Garry The Entertainer about to arrive who knows what will be the future of USPW.... Total Championship Wrestling Last but not least is everyone's favorite TCW! The former problem of having big names not be stolen is no longer an issue for them, and in fact have many new arrivals since their big event in May, but for continuity sake, we'll pick up after their big event last month in June, Excessive Force. TCW World Champion Jay Chord tore the house down against longtime rival TCW Mighty Mo in the main event even without the help of his new stablemates Davis Wayne Newton & Nelson Callum in The Enlightenment, but a 93 match would be haunting for Jay as not only has another old rival in Sammy Bach thrown his hat into the ring for a new title shot, but recently debuted Jacob Jett got a huge pop (even if he left USPW on "bad terms" with Nicky and Nicky's ex wife Persephone *wink wink*) when he also called out the champ on TV this week. Other notable matches had Freddy Huggins got a dirty pin on the ACE of TCW Aaron Andrews, and won't stop running his mouth in (great rated) promos, Wolf Hawkins exited a sad slump of losses over One Man Army, with help from newest Syndicate member Ricky DeColt, Sammy Bach beat Pablo Rodriguez in a #1 contender ship match, and Andre Jones beat Greg Gauge to end a lengthy TV title reign. A Youth movement of sorts is occurring, as Roderick Remus, Seth Whitehead and Ernest Youngman are already up and ready, and new signings Acid II, Going Costal, Tigre Salvaje Jr are looking to make a splash, Phil Vibert is going to apparently sign for some unknown purpose, and a former British master manipulator had to end up somewhere... so what do you guys think, some interesting booking no? Like any, hate them all (that's fair), just thought I'd share this fun save

Firstly congrats! What better way to celebrate then finally try to start my own version to see if I can beat it while working. Great Lakes, check, balanced product, check, bad indy wrestler on his journey to make it big, triple check. its gaming time.

The Holy Demon Army being in a TLC match is the closest thing to make TEW feel like a horror game you could ever do (for all the right reasons of course.) That's not even adding Hardcore Holly, who you know is looking at every Random Gen with murder in his eyes.

I shudder to think what would've happened if we made it far with him, I remember the term "anime" coming up from my co-op since he would've drafted him, but some things are truly best left unanswered. Its even unfunnier because they'd obviously know each other, so Rhyno just has this 180 personality split and Sabu is just doing his whole Sabu thing...

I was doing a 2004 WWE save as the RAW gm, and I essentially ruined WrestleMania XX by putting A-Train in the Elimination Chamber for the RAW title, joking about having him win, then having him actually win on a dare from my co-op and thus now had to have him go into the triple threat match with Shawn and Trips. (I didn't even realize until writing that out that I had nearly copied the actual build with one major difference, didn't mean to do that, but it makes it even more funny in hindsight.) He was then christened BASED-Train (A because he went up a letter grade, even tho that doesn't make sense, and B, because we're mentally 5 when playing this game) and I had a choice to make, do I let Shawn Michaels win, have the reign of terror go on for a little bit longer, or do I do what's BASED for business, I think we all know the Train pulled into the station that night. Now in-game, he seems capped at 82 pop, and performances of a similar variety, even pairing him with Jenna Jameson hasn't moved the needle past that. But the matches always get 90+, he's defeated Ric Flair, The Rock, and Mankind and they all average 92, so a successful world champ I'd say. The whole game is a tale of weird success stories not based on game but how the game has navigated our cringe. A Ric Flair incel stable (he's still in evolution, IDK why and I'm booking it.) Rhyno in La Resistance, A Trent Acid and AJ Styles Tag Team that won the titles, Colt Cabana a with a magic spoon gimmick, Bob Holly ALMOST main eventing WrestleMania, Scott Steiner joining forces with Tajiri, Scott Steiner having a 100 rated match against Shawn Michaels, Triple H getting mad and only getting a 79 when he tries to one up Shawn in wrestlemania build up, Goldberg lore leading to Nunzio of FBI fame pinning him at Wrestlemania...The list could go on...

WrestleLyfe: Year 7 (June 2026-January 2027) Well, its finally time, Ozfest XX, the final event I'll be booking for APW before I hit the long dusty trail. So many fun storylines, most if not all of my upper-mid/main event players on the card, I'll go over the card from bottom to top, so the more famous stories will be near the end of the post for those interested (not anyone lol). The Children of Sport's Scientific Darkness (Lothar Prellinger & Pumpkin Jack) retained their tag titles against former champs The Gold Coast Express (Jesse Tasman & Robert Frost) & Goliath Globals Buckminster Snark & John Gordon in an exciting show stealing opener. Capturing the titles in August's Championship Carnival, The Children of Sport finally came into their own by starting to make life hell for the rest of the roster, from keep the titles at any cost, from slowly climbing up to challenge for the Aussie & Commonwealth titles as well, It was Pookie Possum that tried to get in the way of Goliath Global, being the key to Pumpkin Jack's pin over his heated enemy Snark (the two have fought on and off for the better part of the year). A 30 man battle royal featuring many of APW's stars from openers to main eventers, (Such as Killer B, Monday Next, Pookie Possum, Nighthawk, & The Great Sora (Avatar)) The 2027 Battle of Australia was won by Kian Owens, cheating to tip new enemy JT Ace over the top. The two have come to blows as The Quest (Louie Louis & Kian Owens) frustrations to gain the APW world title resulted in a feud of one-upmanship with rising sensation Ace. This feud should not be over with anytime soon, but for now Kian Owens will get another shot at that coveted APW championship. Rod Sullivan and Christopher Gerard had a long technical slugfest to prove the future of APW, with Rod Sullivan coming out on top, just barley. This feud was a small bit in the making, coming out of the last couple of months as Rod Sullivan was a "wrestling friend" helping out other babyfaces in their tag team main event shenanigans, which drew the ire of Gerard as he thinks Sullivan doesn't cut it to be in APW, where everyman is for themselves. If I was booking more, I doubt this was continue more then it has (2 months) Paul Reinhold has spent 8 months talking about how New Zealand is the better Oceanic Island, and used his equally long reign as Australian Champion to prove that the Kiwi way of life is simply superior to all others. Nevermind that nearly all 18 historic title defenses were all in the category of "Cheating" and "Tainted" and "Not at all sanctioned", Paul Reinhold was proving that at OZfest, it would be everyone's New Zealand Hero retaining the belt, or atleast he assumed until Rob Edwards knocked him out cold in 10 minutes to win his first APW title. Paul has been a blast to book with his fun New Zealand gimmick, and him finally ascending to the top of the card was great, but Rob Edwards quick rise help put my mind at ease about my misuse of him. I never book monsters well, and often Rob would not even BE on the card itself, but in the span of three months he's become the monster I've always failed to make him, and added a shiny new title to him as well. Brisbane Devil screwed Will Beaumont in the lead up to the show, costing him a #1 contenders match and beating him down in an effort to take Will's place as the APW ACE. he worked hard and fought will, but it was a quick rollup by Beaumont that lead to the Devil's defeat. Fight smarter not harder. Brisbane is also like Rod Edwards, a monster that I would never really pull the lever on. while he lost here I booked it in a way that showcased how tough an opponent Devil is, and if I had another year, I could see him picking up the top belt for sure. As for Will, despite being the figurative ACE, I'm not afraid to have him lose, its the chase that's money as they always say. Now the one we all want to hear about, the Jack Avatar vs Yuta Isono, the big storyline for this time of the same. After winning the APW Commonwealth title in May, the former 5K Alliance member would go on to defeat a good number of the APW main event scene before another scheduled (and cheated) defense against Suburban Legend lead to something he and Sean Quartermainne had been mocking for the better part of a month, THE RETURN OF JACK AVATAR. Avatar let his former ally know, he was gunning for him, and wouldn't stop until he got that win. Yuta would make life hell for Jack as he had to compete in tag matches, eight mans, narrowly avoided matches with Yuta, Jack could never get his hands on Yuta in a one on one, until OzFest. Yuta fought smart however, Yuta had barley wrestled for months while Jack Avatar had wrestled every TV and PPV. Yuta didn't slack on training tho, and showed up tonight, with every move a counter, every attack calculated, and every cheat in the book pulled out... but it wasn't enough... Jack Avatar finally got the big win with an All-American Slam, taking out his former partner after 25+ minutes, settling once and for all he was the better man. That wasn't the main event however, THAT was SubUrban Legend defending his APW Commonwealth title against Lynx, in a spectacular show of work and story. SubUrban's reign on top was a long time coming, and was often badmouthed by Lynx, a former champion himself. Dealing with Rod Sullivan, Will Beaumont, & Pookie Possum, he achieved the exact opposite of Legend who took on all major heels, (Devil, Owens, Gerard, Pumpkin Jack, Yuta), and the two had been destined to come to blows since October. Lynx was out to show why he's one of the best in APW, but SubUrban Legend proved why he is one of the best in Pro Wrestling, by going over 20 minutes in a fast paced match, ending with a clean cut pin. And that's it, that's my APW career, I'm not sure where to go from here, in honesty I thought of keeping on the APW train but my owner is addicted to nearly all the drugs, and is making backstage hell for those not in his clique with Pumpkin Jack, so in story and in game i have a nice reason to leave so I'll take it for old times sake, so no more fun in the land down under. There's certainly options, TCW is struggling hard against the talent trades of USPW, SWF nearly just as much. Japan has been fairly stagnant and could use some shacking up. Mexico is EILL territory, but their booking is often one note, so maybe I take my money and time there, or give an opponent like OLLIE, EMLL, or Sumatra Championship Wrestling a much needed edge. Back to Europe, The British Isles, or even go to India's sole promotion, its interesting to see who will be calling. or maybe its time I think of myself, and myself alone... Anyway that's another thing of WrestleLyfe done, hope this was interesting enough, it has been for me atleast lol.

Joshua: "Edd, I may be out right now, but I want YOU, 1 on 1, in a match" Edd: "These MFs aint paying us sh@t brother"

Hello, based department, I'd like to report a sighting

A couple guys for me are Atom Smasher, Logan Wolfsbaine, & T-Bone Bright. Alot of people I've meet think T-Bone Bright isn't "ready" yet, so I like to raise him up to upper midcard status as quickly as possible, the guy has a nice factor as a backbone of TCW, which I think pairs well with the notion of TCW not having a strong midcard. Wolfsbaine is always a guy I can rely on to just shoot for the moon in a 2-4 month time frame, and Atom is just based, simple as...

WrestleLyfe: Year 6 (January 2026-June 2026) The time has come, I have finally booked the true end of the Jack Avatar & Yuta Isono saga. I'll be focusing on this whole bit since the other feuds while good on their own right, are eclipsed by how big in scale this storyline was/is still, but I'll summarize real quick. SubUrban Legend & Christopher Gerard, as well as Lynx & Rod Sullivan have been in 5-6 month long blood feuds, Will Beaumont has been feuding with Goliath Global (The Duo & Buckminster Snark), The Children of Sport (Semi Parody stable) have been feuding with some lower teir faces to push them up the card, & Brisbaine Devil has been suffering from LACKOFATTENTIONFROMBOOKERMAN-itis. Anyway, back to what really matters. Jack & Yuta's alliance wasn't strained at all in the aftermath of Ozfest 19, they worked well together to isolate faces and make sure they're attentions weren't 100% there in matches, such as using Killer B to distract SubUrban Legend (and using Gerard to cost him a rematch after Geard didn't get pinned in a triple threat) or overwhelming Will Beaumont even after he took out Snark. but all good things must come to an end, and it all started with their tag titles. Beating the Gold Coast Express in their home region should have been an easy day, but a vengful Will Beaumont cost Yuta his balance and caused him to get pinned after more then a year as champs. Afterwards Yuta admitted his mistakes, he even went on to challenge and beat Will Beaumont at the following event (with an assist from Sean Quartermainne) but the tensions had started to form. Even in terms of wrestling, it wasn't much, little stares while the other wasn't looking, whispers on social media, rumors of a backstage confrontation right after the tag title loss, but it all happened within a month, and as such it slowly snowballed into a larger and larger conflict. When Rod Sullivan became the next failed challenger against Jack's title reign, the world was shocked when Yuta Isono challenged him for the title at Caged Showdown the following month, but no one was more stunned then both Jack & Sean. Yuta said he wanted to prove himself, win or lose, that they were always what they said the 5K Alliance was, EQUAL. The challenge was friendly, no cheating, no funny business, no Sean even as with the name's tradition it would be in a steel cage. The man known as Jack Avatar was in a tough position now, he liked Yuta, he really did, but did he love that title more. Quartermainne was seen talking with Jack, assumingly telling him to call the match off, not to ruin the stable he helped build to screw over APW. Tensions where high, as tag matches descended into screaming matches, backstage interviews cancelled, and different rental cars used, but on the go home show of Caged Showdown, it all came to a head. APW Must See TV, Episode #233, the opening of the show was interrupted by Jack Avatar coming out unannounced and...telling the truth. Jack respected Isono, and his challenge even more, and while he wanted to keep that title, he wanted to keep his integrity even more. He called out not Isono, but Quartermainne for telling him to cheat, to use a weapon like brass knucks and they'd find a more loyal, less opportunistic partner to replace him. Instead it was Sean who would be "fired" and Jack promising to keep things civil, and no longer using advice from a washed out old man in the business, in their match, and even took an open challenged as self imposed punishment for his previous actions right after. Somewhat overdramatic but it seemed to get the point across, as Yuta would shake the mans hand and even toasted some champagne as the show went off the air. The main event the next day, the match everyone wanted to see, Jack Avatar, the champion, vs his partner and friend, Yuta Isono, for the most important match of either mans lives. It was an epic match, one of the greatest in APW's history, and a real back and forth with few shenanigans. They didn't rely on the cage, instead trying to outwrestle the other, submission holds, high spots, bombs, anything to put the other man down. It all came to a head in the thirty minute mark, as false finish after false finish lead to Yuta Isono hitting a huge right on Jack into the Isono Face Melter for a shock sudden but deserved win. The crowd was wild, and a match like that needs a slowdown reply of every spot, especially that final stretch. Did Yuta pull something out of his trunks at the last second? Yuta used brass knuckles. The crowd had turned in a second, and Yuta was ALL FOR IT, if you can't beat em as they say. Sean even made a example of it as he joined the brutal beatdown on Jack, now taking away on stretch from the pool of his own blood, as Isono's master plan had finally come to fruition. He would later reveal that he didn't even have the idea of the knucks or joining with Sean until AFTER Jack's little speech, he thought it would be funny to salt the wound JUST a little more, after all, Jack would surly have done the same at some point, its just how this business works. The PPV ends as the previous TV did, with the 5K minus our American Hero celebrating...with a nice glass of champagne. The final stretch of my APW time is at hand, and we won't be seeing Jack for sometime, what happens next, even I can't really say. Outside of APW nothing of huge importance has happened. Nicky Champion no longer being the ACE of USPW hasn't slowed their roll as top dog, SWF is somewhat struggling after losing Rocky Golden, as well as being stretched thin with two A-Shows. Europe has a more vibrant wrestling landscape then Canada with the fallout of CWA's demise still floating around. Robert Oxford's passing leaves TCW in a tight spot of Road Agents, and the World Wide Wrestling Boom continues thanks to WrestleWorld being a surprising force for good. In non-kayfabe news I'm started to clash hard with owner James J McMinister, who picked up a smoking, drinking, and drug habit all right after the next, lovely. He's started to test my patience and I think any hope of me staying down under is dead with him constantly doing random stuff backstage (would make for a good dynasty tbh lol). See you all at Ozfest, when we finally close this chapter in my longest save ever.

Cursed but something we love to see.

YOU: WOW, MANAGING MY FINANCES IN MY WRESTLING COMPANY IS SO EASY, I BET EVERYONE IS JUST AS MUCH IN THE GREEN AS ME! FCW, WITH -25,000,000 IN THE SPAN OF A YEAR & A HALF:

1. The Gimmick with the 5K was originally when I started APW was VERY much smaller as it is, but Jack & Yuta we're these HUGE signings (especially for the company at the time) for Sean Quartermaine, who brought them in as a sort of revenge storyline for being ousted (both in a real life lost the booker position, and as I replaced him on commentary and his managing duties of someone, can't remember who). They've dominated the tag team scene for the year, but as the months rolled on they started cutting promos about who they're the best, and they deserve more oppirunities, eventually ruining a big title match between Rod & Lynx, hence the match. I'd say they definitely work as a team, but not in a FTR way, more so singles guys who happen to work really well together, in terms of the legacy, I see the fact that they held the tag gold for a year plus as the kind of "cherry on top", but they could hold them longer as well. 2. This was important, in the match, Jack pinned Lynx, and in my headcannon Yuta and Jack RARELY fought, maybe a spot or two for a tease, but strictly avoided the combat, so the relationship is non-fractured, they also went into the match with a "Whoever gets it, gets it" meaning if Yuta had been the one to pull it out, Jack wouldn't be upset (at least for now). In terms of the split, I think amicably would be cool, but A its wrestling, and my mark brain always yearns for the Steen/Generico split feud, as well as B, I'm not sure I could justify it with a face for face, the biggest challenge to me is who exactly will be the one turning face (THEY ARE BOTH HEELS RN I can't believe I didn't mention that), would it be the (right now) champ Jack Avatar, or the denied at the dance Yuta, both are interesting choices, I hope this helped.

First time in the thread, and I have slightly booked myself into a smallish corner, so I thought I would ask for your opinions/advice. I've been booking a ULTRA-push of Yuta Isono and Jack Avatar (The 5K Alliance), and it has entered basically phase 3 as Jack Avatar has won the main belt (I'm In APW, here is some non-necessary context), in addition to the year long tag reign he's had with Yuta. The problem lies with the tag belts, I'm not sure how I get them off the two know that they don't need them anymore, I have some ideas but if you come up with your own feel free of course lay it on me. For context I'm looking to get them off at the very most in 3 months, hoping for ASAP, and I just finished up my big wrestlemania show, so next TV is basically RAW after WrestleMania. I vacate the belts, it happens quickly, efficiently, and lets me move them off without hurting the pop the two have had built up for the past couple months. Have a shock win on the next TV, I think it could make for a cool moment, they've basically been "Undefeated" in a sense as a tag team, but I'm not a fan of those kinds of streaks, and if there was a time besides PPV to do it, this show would be the time, it also could further stories with a new challenger costing them the titles (They are heels but you know how it goes) Have a storyline defeat on the opener of a PPV. This is also interesting as the goal at the end of the day is in some way to have the two split, but I want it to be somewhat more subdued then that, so Yuta taking the pin might have to be held down the line, I was thinking of giving him the midcard title, almost a Kurt and Joe TNA moment albeit I don't think they're 1v1 will be for the belt (atleast rn in my head), so it could wait, or it could happen soon, I'm up for either. I hope I made it clear as I'm sleep deprived, lol, again all advice welcome.

WrestleLyfe: Year 6 (January 2025-January 2026) 1 year later after a bit of IRL neglect, getting a job, and new forums, Ozfest 19 (XIX) has finally been booked, published, and come out as our second best ever show at a 90, While I was you know what blocked by the Go home TV show with a 91 🤡. The wrestling world is going through a sort of new boom, with Wrestleworld helping make alot of the indies become almost super indies, but they don't really offer large contracts out, the only real one was Costal Zone, and they have grown to the point of being out of Wrestleworld, and competing with the big 3 (Although they are really struggling to steal anyone of note). The other fresh indies are doing fine, only Sumatra Championship Wrestling are in the red (Mexico fed I've used as a tax write off because I don't really need the money, but I'm on my last go to save them) and no one has folded since CWA in Canada in '24. My 5K Alliance feud has reached its "Climax" as Jack Avatar beat his partner, Rod Sullivan, & Champ Lynx to win the APW Commonwealth Title, I'm not going to lie, I was kinda scared they would reach the right amount of match ratings to justify the switch, but the story was there, and in teh span of a month, Jack went from 60s to 78s, the journey has been complete. Now for the next part..Him and Yuta are still Tag Champs, I'm thinking of vacating them, which I don't like to do, but A its my save why care and B I don't have to suck all the newly gained pop off of them just yet, might have to consult the Booking Committee thread. JT Ace retained his Aussie Belt over Pumpkin Jack, Ace has been up the card, but he still is a work in progress, he only did a 51 to Jack's 79, he's on a whole other level, but Jack is starting to get inside his own head after a month out with a sprained ankle, thought of giving him the belt in a shock short reign but mess with my backstage I don't forget. The Quest (Kian Owens and Louie Louis) had an awesome match with SubUrban Legend and Killer B, Brisbane Devil ended a six month feud with Pookie Possum, and Christian Gerard won a battle royal for a title shot. All of these guys are the backbones of the rooster, but good lord Legend and Gerard are the two standouts for simply best like holy hell, they just entered a program with each other based on that alone. Will Beaumont beat Buckminster Snark in a match to both have Will on da card and have Snark get alittle more over to hopefully move into the upper midcard. Other noteworthy things are The Children of Sport won a 4v4 lol, Monday Next wrestled the pre-show since the time decline is finally starting to hit him and hit him hard, and "The Kiwi Supremacist" Paul Reinhold won a showcase match, as he has become one of my favorite gimmicks. The next year (and my last as according to my game rules, will mostly be about using all these big names to finally overtake RAW in terms of ratings (I'm so close) and complete the finally legacy of my huge storyline idea. 6 years in game and USPW still are the dominate force in wrestling, although the war with SWF is still decently close, but Rocky Golden "USED ONLYFANS" and as such was cancelled and let go. Thus the hit in star power has been a decent turning point. 21CW are seemingly recovering from the big talent raids in the early 2020s by pushing Apollo Prince, and TCW is still chugging alone decently, although if someone wants their top guy is usually a no contest. T-Bone Bright has be up and down as top guy but he seems to being doing good, although if Greg Gauge wasn't out with a Torn Rotator Cuff, you must think he'd have the big one over there. Japan is basically how it is at the start, BHOTWG are #1, I think only in terms of just in game data (pop) are PGHW are #2, as I think if they had just a bit more points EXODUS 2010 would blow them out of the water 9/10 times, WLW 7/10. Mexico exists, nothing else of note. Playing with the RTG rolls are fun, and overall I think this is the longest save I ever had at this point, hoping to bang out the next shows when I get the time.
