  2. <p>Superstar Shakeup for Smackdown Predictions</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> ~Charlotte - They need to split her away from Sasha and Bayley</p><p> </p><p> ~Dana Brooke- A lot of spoilers keep saying Sasha but they are building the Sasha/Bayley slow burn. </p><p> </p><p> ~New Day - They have had countless matches with Cesaro/Sheamus, The Club, and Enzo/Cass. It is time for something new. I wanted to see them split up but they sell too much merch. I hope at some point we can get Kofi/Woods tag with Big E singles run.</p><p> </p><p> ~Kevin Owens - I like Owens on RAW but he will be 1 of 2 top heels on Smackdown. I would of liked to seen a proper Balor feud but moving him over to Smackdown will be nice. He has that big fish in a smaller pond appear. He needs to get that damn US Title off of him though. It makes him look like a midcarder. Owens vs Nakamura, Owens vs Orton and eventually Owens vs face AJ Styles will all be nice.</p><p> </p><p> ~ A couple of Midcarders that no one cares about. Maybe Axel and Titus Oneal? I guess you could always do the Big Show to work with Corbin. I really don't know.</p><p> </p><p> I see Smackdown getting a few calls ups like Almas, Asuka and maybe DIY?</p>

  5. <p>I am sorry buy if you didn't like Wrestlemania then it's probably time yo give up WWE all together. I k ow a lot of you try to come off cool and say you don't ever watch it anymore. Which is an obvious lie when you chime in all the tie about current storylines. </p><p> </p><p> Wrestlemania was great. 7.5 to 8 out of 10. Wrestlemania isn't for the hardcore wrestling fan. the quicker people accept that the better it is for the viewer. Wrestlemania will never ever be wrestle kingdom. It will rarely if ever have a 5* match. It is all about the entertainment value and glitz. Once you accept thinks the biggest live action entertainment show in the world it makes your life easier. You want the best wrestling show of the year? That is every Janauary so don't come into Mania expecting that.</p><p> </p><p> And I am ok with that that. Shane and AJ was better than expected..Owens and Jericho was good as expected, literally every match was as good or better than expected outside of 2 for me.</p><p> </p><p> the Wyatt and Orton s--- was too much for my taste. And against popular opinion here Roman couldn't carry Taker to a good match. Taker was awful. He should notnhave been in the ring. Roman did his job. Like him or not but he is one of the top 5 in ring talents in WWE. AJ stylesnis the greatest in the world today and would have struggled with Taker.</p>

At what point does it hurt my growth keeping this model as opposed to 2 TV shows a week (which I'm dreading) and/or 1 PPV a month? I used the editor to give myself a good tv contract so I get good coverage throughout the US (Big is what I think it's called) and my PPV's also have good coverage in the US.</div></blockquote><p> </p><p> I think you can get by just fine running this. It just depends how fast you want to get to National. Obviously the more shows you run the faster your popularity will rise. </p><p> </p><p> PPV's are the top revenue stream. By holding only one every 2 months you are limiting your income. I often ran 2 PPV's a month while only running 1 show just to generate more cash flow.</p>

I avoided pushing him because i knew his contract was coming up in the next few months and he would refuse to negotiate. I fined him very early in the save for missing a media appearance and he immediately had a bad relationship so I never really pushed him because I knew he'd eventually be gone.</p><p> </p><p> Going into the last few months of 2017, I needed a fourth member for a Christmas Clash match that was designed to get Dominic DeSousa a push our of opener status. Starr ended up being the best candidate with nothing to do so he joined in. It ended up having the opposite effect. DeSousa didn't move too far and Starr shot from midcard to main event status even when he was going 2-10 in matches over a three month period. </p><p> </p><p> Since Starr was leaving, I figured I'd let him give some of his pop to Valiant, my world champ. After losing to Valiant, I'd let Jimmy Hernandez (who is three months from being my established figurehead) steal a little bit of his pop too before sending him on his way. </p><p> </p><p> Two days before Starr's title match, Richard Eisen personally extended his contract. I had a Supreme TV that night and decided to go the Summer of Punk route where Starr announced that he was leaving the company and taking the SWF belt with him after he beats Valiant for it at When Hell Freezes Over. Then I had him win the title and escape with it through the crowd.</p><p> </p><p> From there, it will follow a similar arc as the Punk story in WWE but with a much slower burn and with him working as a legitimate heel. There will be a tournament for a new champion but this time, Starr will burst through the crowd during the finals, causing a double DQ and stealing the 2nd belt as well. Richard Eisen will make his first on screen appearance in my save after this and demand Starr come out and sign a new contract. Starr will stall (Eisen will call him Bret Stall or something), make demands and refuse to sign. This will eventually lead to Micky Starr coming out and telling his grandson to do the right thing and not tarnish the family's legacy that he built up by carrying the company.</p><p> </p><p> Starr will finally sign and it'll be around the time for The World is Watching. Jimmy Hernandez will announce he wants to cash in his King of the Jungle contract to get a shot at Starr where Hernandez will win the title and his first title reign.</p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> I am about to fire Hollywood Brett Starr in my SWF game. He has been suspended 3 straight months. He comes back for 1 show and then gets into another fight with someone. So far the idiot has tried to or has fought Remo, Rocky Golden and most recently KC Glenn. I really had high aspirations for the guy but he needs to go.</p><p> </p><p> I probably would have fired him by now but he is about 87 pop. I wanted to job him out for a month to pass some of that on before getting rid of him.</p>

So for example I have my two current top faces feuding with each other but one is preparing to turn. If I have them wrestle as faces and before the turn is completed, does that mean there is less of a penalty than if it was just a face/face match with no turn hinting?</div></blockquote><p> </p><p> I almost always start my turn a month in advance. If you turn them right away the first one might be ok but then you will get the alert you have had too many "surprise" turns. In my SWF game I just recently decided to turn Des Davids because I had about 4 more heels than faces. I set his turn. I ran 2 shows before the turn and still got the "failed turn" message.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-username="wwfmark" data-cite="wwfmark" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="41194" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>How do alliances work?

Do I get the penalty if I book the match twice in the Tri-State and then book the same match 2 more times in say the Great Lakes?</div></blockquote><p> </p><p> Someone else might be able to confirm 100% but I believe you will get the same penalty regardless.

Just thought I'd share a bit about my CGC game....<p> </p><p> Having never really played CGC in the past, I took them on as new head booker Peter Michaels and have been having a ton of fun. I've just completed through June of my first year and Christian Price has been a heat magnet champ. He's played all the DeColts against one another ultimately winning the title from Jack in a cage when Alex botched his interference. This has gotten Alex relieved from his duties with Eric Tyler being brought in as the heel authority figure. Ultimate Showdown will feature Price defending against Jack and Ricky where I plan to turn Ricky heel after Jack costs him the match allowing Price to walk out as champ.</p><p> </p><p> Some of my big signings have been: Troy Tornado, Erik Strong, Flying Jimmy Foxx and John Greed.</p><p> My pet projects/prospects: Sean (Spencer) Spade, Primus (Allen), Gregory Keith (Gauge), Ant-Man & Davis Wayne Newton. Donte Dunn and Intrepid Ian Identity have started and stopped a bit too.</p><p> </p><p> The world has a whole has shaken up a ton as well with Nicky Champion signing with SOTBPW, Rocky Golden, Aaron Andrews and Wolf Hawkins signing with USPW, and a declining Rogue a free agent (I've been kicking the tires on him myself...but not sure I want to commit to the spending). Meanwhile SWF is reloading from the bottom up signing some good prospects to RIPW (including Garry the Entertainer and Killer Shark)</p><p> </p><p> Raymond Diaz is subject to a big bidding war in Japan who just experienced the tsunami.

All my other tag teams are midcard or lower so they're not serious threats at this point.<p> </p><p> So I had Zimmy turn on Randy and now he goes by Z-Ender (As in Z Ender of the Bumfholes.. is it worse than Bumfhole? Probably). It was before a title match and Z ran off with both the titles. We're coming up on Christmas Clash so Team Z and Team Randy will face off over control of the tag titles. I will probably slow roll the feud with Z holding the titles (possibly bringing up someone as a third "brother" to join a side) for a few months.
