[Fearless 08 - Feb 2008 Real World Data]

Thank you so much for this! Super excited to dive in.

 

Some quick TNA notes

 

Alexa Thatcher doesn’t appear to have wrestled in TNA in 2008 at least according to cagematch

 

Chris Harris would leave TNA in early January 2008, and signed with WWE at the end of January

 

Christopher Daniels would have been working under his Curry Man persona around this time (kayfabe fired via feat or fired)

 

Doug Williams would not join TNA until British Invasion’s debut a year later (other than being in the Global X Cup in July)

 

Rick Steiner would be released at the tail end of January

 

Add Ricky Bandaras under the alter ego (TNA only) Judas Mesias: James Mitchell as manager

 

will probably have more later but this was after a quick look through

[Fearless 08 - Feb 2008 Real World Data]

Can't say I'm familiar with the IWA's outside of Mid South. Osaka Pro, Heartland, and IWC are this ones on this list I would lean keep. Sadly I am not familiar with European wrestling enough to know who should be kept.

[Fearless 08 - Feb 2008 Real World Data]

YES! So excited for this. Been wanting to rebook TNA 08 since since I picked up TEW 2020. Samoa Joe's World Title run, Main Event Mafia, giving guys like Homicide, Lance Hoyt , Eric Young, and Daniels a real chance to rise up the card.

[No one man should have all that POWERRR]

<p>EPISODE 28:</p><p>

Who will Nick Aldis bring out as his challenger for Hard Times 2? <strong>Satoshi Kojima</strong></p><p> </p><p>

Looking at legends who are still active it became a toss up for me between Demon Jr, Tenzan, and Kojima. Though could be a heel swerve to and face someone like Kahagas or Conway. Going with Kojima, biggest name that can still "go"</p><p> </p><p>

NWA World Television Championship match: <strong>Anthony Bennett ©</strong> vs. "Uptown" Andy Brown</p><p> </p><p>

Add me to the list of people who will look into Bennett. Always a happy when wrestlers I don't from these games do end up on my radar.</p><p> </p><p>

The Rock N' Roll Express vs. <strong>FKA "the Authors of Pain"</strong></p><p> </p><p>

Ellering plus these guys is a great crew. Feel bad for the RnR, they are in for a world of hurt</p><p> </p><p>

Kamille vs. <strong>Thunder Rosa</strong></p><p> </p><p>

Tough to pick against Rosa.</p>

Feel as though Pope's title run is just begining.

 

Serena Deeb vs. Marti Belle

Cant pick against my girl Deeb.

[Community Modding Discussion Thread]

Hey, was wondering if anyone was working on a 2008 Real World mod. Been having an itch to rebook Samoa Joe's TNA Title reign, Angle vs Styles, having Jay Lethal rise up the card, and maybe some Main Event Mafia thrown in there. It's honestly such a good if not over looked era.

[No one man should have all that POWERRR]

Great stuff! Surprised that I won, only one off a perfect score too. Always a fan of Doug Williams from his TNA days, and looking forward to Strictly Business' reign.

[No one man should have all that POWERRR]

ROUND 1

Tim Storm & Trevor Murdock vs. The Briscoe Brothers

Strong BJ vs. Thom Latimer & Doug Williams

Da Pope & Erick Stevens vs. Andy Brown and Adrian Quest

SCU vs.Flip Gordon & Brody King

 

ROUND 2

Tim Storm & Trevor Murdock vs. Thom Latimer & Doug Williams

Da Pope & Erick Stevens vs. SCU

 

FINALS

Thom Latimer & Doug Williams vs. SCU

 

Think the heels take it. Gives Strickly Business a near monopoly on titles, which will make there eventual fall all the more interesting.

 

Great start to the diary as well! Knowing that Rosa lost the womens title in real life just as you were setting all this up are you thinking of bringing in Serena Deeb? Or possibly any other UWN talent (Please bring in Jervis Cottenbelly! I could imagine great comedy moments learning Ka-ra-tay.)

[The AI's hiring and poaching is absolutely brutal]

I did a year long sim to watch Japan. BHOTWG signs anyone they can who has decent popularity. Essentially because they rose to large size. Though they mostly just job on the pre-show. Makes me see a real challenge in booking small companies in Japan

[What's your first full game?]

WLW

 

Burning Hammer may steal the top guys right at the start, but the heart of LuchaResu can't be beaten by them or (FALSELY ACCUSED) yakuza scandals!

[More generic belts?]

I don't do belts, but I'm working on generating a lot of trophies that could be used for tournaments. I probably won't post them all for another couple of days. I'm hoping to have 10 or more images for trophies and then some more themed "trophies" like golden spurs for a Western themed promotion, water-based trophies for CZCW, etc.

 

YES! I've been hoping someone would make more trophies. Been using generic belts whenever running tournaments and it just doesn't feel right

[WLW (World Level Wrestling) Official Thread]

First time playing the C-Verse and chose this company to get my bearings. Man I didn’t know how rough shape they are in but love some of the workers. Masa is a God send and the only guy BHOTWG’s doesn’t try and steal (done 3/4 play throughs). Every game Eagle Kawasawa, at least one of if not both of Black House, Americana, and Panda Mask get scooped up. This most recent play through I have Eagle has head booker so he doesn’t get stolen.

 

Still, Great young talent like Masa, Tiger Prince, Nichiren Amagawa, Naoji Azumi, and Shogun Watoga have caused me to fall in love with this company. Can’t wait till the full game comes out, and take these guys to the top

[General Gameplay Questions Thread]

Half the time I book segments I get hit with a "Lack of anything interesting happening" even when not doing freestyle angles/make sure the workers are being rated on an "active" stat. Did a post match beat down to set up a feud and still get hit with the "lack" penalty.

Haven't played these games (or really been a wrestling fan) in a long time. Excited to jump back into the series. Gonna spend a while learning the game on the demo. Once I feel confident excited for the 2008 mod that's currently being worked on. Got a whole plan for re-booking Samoa Joe's 08 title run, making Styles the face of the company, solidifying the knockout division the best women's division in the world, and figuring out a plan for guys who never got the spot light in the era (Archer, Lethal, Creed, etc)

[2008: Fearless '08 Real World Data]

Excited for this mod. Been itching to re-book Samoa Joe's 2008 TNA title run when TEW 2020 comes out.

[Has TEW helped make you a fan of any real world workers?]

Years back booked a AAA invasion angle in TNA because they kept trying to sign my guys. This was TEW 2007 I think, but can't remember. Signed Laredo Kid as the "fall guy" of the stable, but he put on great matches in the X Division I became a fan of his. All this without even following Lucha Libre.

 

Fell off as a wrestling fan, becoming one again with the rise of AEW. Was shocked when Laredo Kid was chosen to replace PAC at Fyter Fest. Hoping AEW will give him a full run someday. So I can see my boy rise to the challenge.
