In all my long term saves all of my workers who are Recognizable - Major Star always end up stuck with white hot momentum. I honestly do not what to change about my booking to try and cool workers off. At this point I play with momentum turned off, otherwise workers never lose pop from losing matches and everyone ends up either a Major Star or Star.
The guidebook states that a worker can lose momentum from losses, poor performance, and reversals in angles. In my current save I'm 20 years deep and Ricky Steamboat seems to have gotten a horrible destiny roll as his stats are pretty average. I'd like to have him drop down to a lower-mid card roll and help build new talent, despite going 6 - 37 over 2 years his momentum has only dropped from white hot to very warm. Are there some specific road agent notes I should be using? Also what exactly is a 'reversal in angles'? I usually just use freestyle angles and the only road agent notes are cameo, turn, title change, bumps, advance/end storyline. Other thoughts, do workers receive bonus momentum by having matches/angles on monthly events compared to TV?
