Cornellverse, now in Springs 2023
This is my first save i've played more than a year into. I'm new to the game and went bankrupt the first time lol.
World Heavyweight Champion: Logan Wolfsbaine
World Cruiserweight Champion: Extraordinario Jr
United States Champion: Nelson Callum
Queen of the Universe: Fuyuko Higa
Television Champion: Charlie Corner
World Tag Team Champions: Sasquatch McGraw & Otis Von Battenberg (Canadian Hardcore)
Personally, I don't try the CornellVerse often enough, but even I have encountered Wolfsbaine in a save or two. How is his popularity looking? Would be interested how his stats are at that point.

<p>But can't you already kind of do that with all the 'goes dormant' or 'revive' options? The only thing I could see is maybe the length of a show, but for me personally that was never of any importance how long the shows of the other promotions are and it's actually also not easy to tell anyway if you're looking at results of a 2 hour TV show or 1 1/2 hours. </p><p> </p><p>
Or maybe I'm misunderstanding something, I don't know lol</p>

Inspired by this thread by d12345, a lot of different ideas came to my mind how to flesh out the investments options and I'd be interested what you guys have to add to that
As we all know, there is a point in the game that we reach where we make more money we could ever spend. If a company is rich, there is almost no way to struggle anymore.
To think about what should ABSOLUTELY be in the game, just look at WWE:
- own movie production
- video games
- music
I think these three could be fleshed out greatly, especially the own production.
Movie Production
Could be used to put your own stars into movies, giving a whole different dimension to the Acting skill and planning out when your stars are going to be gone for filming.
I think picking a genre, budget and up to three active wrestlers to take part in the movie.
How well a worker would do depends on the genre, budget and also the combination of skills they have to offer. When there would be a correlation between the 'hard' stats for a movie, what would be mostly entertainment skills and athletic skills.
A Comedy movie would probably be not suitable for a very menacing worker. A person who can play comedic characters would do statistically better than that menacing worker. To make that more tangible, you'd probably rather cast R-Truth than Vader for a comedy.
In an action movie on the other hand, brawling, star quality, charisma and sex appeal would trump any other movie related stats. Acting is less important than in the other genre.
A drama would put highest emphasis on the acting skill, closely followed by charisma, sex appeal and maybe selling as a fun stat haha A drama would be the most likely to bomb, but if it's a hit, there could be great benefit for the prestige of your company and something for the worker, where I'm not sure what would be different than a success in a comedy or action movie.
Your 'film studio' could have a prestige level you can only raise with enormous investments or big box office success. Depending on your prestige level and size, you can attract bigger star actors to minimize the risk of your movies bombing. If a worker does really well for you 'Hollywood' could snatch him away and make him a part timer what makes you think twice who to put in those movies.
Something like that haha
Music
Music can be even more straightforward with a bi-yearly option to put out a music album for your promotion. You can choose the name of the album and the rest is done through your merchandise sales. Your Top 15 Merchandise seller in that specific period would appear on that album. Maybe to put a fun twist on it, the names and artists of the workers are random and only based on their gimmick (so a menacing worker doesn't get 'Downtown Boogie' f.e.)
Also creating your own label would be a fun option that could be kept quite basic but would still be a welcome addition. You could publish your own worker's music and your own albums.
Video Games you can check out in the aforementioned thread where I highly second what was said thus far.
Those are the 'obvious' ones you could do. But the investment option should be going into a lot more detail. Invest in a local company for example. Going public is obviously also a big one that would net you more money than you could ever spend but you have to adjust your booking so you can keep your stock price steady.
Pro Classes
Let's say you wanna change your product to heavily entertainment based product from a wrestling based product. To make sure your workers are doing well with the transition you could bring in coaches that are able to work with a couple of workers at a time (similar to performance centre) to raise their f.e. acting-stat. I think Freddie Prinze Jr. was once brought into WWE to do acting classes for them, so I'm thinking something along the lines of that.
Getting Bought by Media Companies
I at least never witnessed it in a game and I know you can definitely do it in the editor but I'd like the ramifications of being owned by a media company to be different. I think the moment your company is owned by a media company it should turn into almost something like a Child Company relationship, with regular 'meetings' what they want from you.
You are financially not very vulnerable but you can't control day or length of your TV show anymore. When the company feels you'd do better on a different slot, even though it's slowing your progress down, they move you. I feel this could be awesome and also a 'way out' if you are a company in financial distress, media companies could approach you to be bought by them, of course only if you are of a certain size. A move you'd probably only do as a last resort.
Your position as the head booker is a lot more in constant danger than in a 'normal' company because some corporate 'suits' with no wrestling knowledge make the decisions. They could tell you to turn somebody even though they are a 100% babyface etc...
- - - - - - -
I often end up playing a save game for like 3-5 years and then finish because I'm too big to fail and there is no challenging in-game wrinkle anymore other than booking your own promotion. The financial aspect of the game is the one thing I wished would be more complex because it ain't that easy to make money in real life ^^

What's happening with WWF AND JCP?!
Went into more detail in the other thread ^^ WWF went out of business with a Greg Valentine title run, Mid South became UWF and went national and JCP is now WCW. The stars of WWF have been divided pretty equally between all the remaining promotions. UWF got Flair, WCW Hogan and I have Magnum and Savage.

AWA
January 1985 - March 1988
I am booking AWA in a 1985 mod. We are in June 1987. It became quickly one of the most interesting saves I've ever had.Now we are in March 1988.
Now there are three major players in the US:UWF (formerly Mid South) with Ric Flair, Big John Studd, Paul Orndorff, Kamala and Jake Roberts.
WCW (formerly JCP) with Hulk Hogan, Dusty Rhodes, Andre The Giant, Harley Race and Ricky Steamboat.
AWA's top stars are Randy Savage, Roddy Piper, Magnum TA, Kerry Von Erich & Curt Hennig.
Scratch that. Vince came back from the ashes earlier than anybody could have expected and with a 'tag team partner': Donald Trump. I had no involvement in this and thought the combo of Trump as an owner and Vince as the head booker was just too crazy and frankly hilarious. They are running USPW, where they have an absurdly bloated roster and main eventers are Nikita Koloff, Bob Orton Jr. or Sheiky Baby; so, basically the only workers they could sign. They have a lot of money and should be fine, just hovering over the cusp of falling in size to small.
I just finished a huge storyline involving most of my top talent because I introduced basically my take on Horsemen or Rat Pack: The Syndicate. With Ted DiBiase, Curt Hennig, Jerry Lawler and later Steve Williams as final member, they were dominating the title scene and it was Magnum with his friends Kerry von Erich, Butch Reed and Larry Zbyszko to take them on, what resulted in the very first Cell Wars match!The Syndicate are still very much an important part but there was one change. After months of Lawler, DiBiase and Hennig treating Steve Williams like a dim-wit, Doctor Death finally had enough,snapped and was kicked out of the group. The new fourth member of The Syndicate will turn out to be Barry Windham who fits the group like a glove I feel.
Steve Williams reunites with his former partner Terry Gordy and they take on the monster heel tag team of Vader (who debuted in late 87) and The Berzerker (whose loveable goofiness was all undone when Jimmy Snuka put him through a table) managed by Bobby 'The Brain' Heenan. Overall a stacked tag team division with Hart Foundation, Steiner Brothers or Hot Stuff Unlimited (Tommy Rich & Eddie Gilbert).
After the feud with Gino, Savage will be back in the title hunt to take the belt from the champ at that time. I'm thinking Piper but unfortunately his gimmick is rated as Poor what makes booking him in the main events quite difficult as that costs those direly needed points to beat WCW and UWF.Gino and Savage just finished their match series. It wasn't an easy decision but I'm turning Magnum T.A. heel (he is by far the biggest merchandise seller) and put him and Savage on as the main event of The Clash for the third time in a row. Magnum has won both matches thus far but this time Savage's the babyface.
OVERALL GAME WORLD:
It was very entertaining how crazy the promotions got as soon as Trump and Vince started to show up. With NJPW being quite aggressive as well and all four major promotions in the US at war with each other, the free agent pool has really nothing to offer at this point. Not much new talent incoming and admittedly, Vince signed pretty much anybody with Star Quality over 70 and/or popularity over 25.
WCW:
It's really cool to observe how well it actually works with 3-4 major promotions because the talent pool was deeep at that time. WCW is booked by Dusty and they have Hulk Hogan as their figurehead after he was a free agent when WWF folded.
Hogan has been the sole WCW World Heavyweight Champion for 325 days now. He made a staggering 57 defences thus far.
WCW US Champion is Buddy Rose who took the title from Ricky Steamboat a couple of months back.
I kind of dig their WCW World Tag Team Champions, Dory Funk Jr. and Mike Rotunda, as a very old school heel tag team.
The biggest story for WCW wasn't Hogan though. It was 1987 Wrestler of the Year (!) Mark Fleming. 'Who?' you might ask and you're absolutely right to be asking. Fleming is an awesome worker but lacks the star quality to be anything more than a midcarder I'd thought. He creeped up on me and just at some point when I was checking their results, I realized that he produced a 97 with Hulk Hogan in the main event for the WCW World Heavyweight.
He got over in 1985 through a NWA United States Title reign. But when they got national he became a solid main eventer for them.
Top 10 1987
UWF
They were probably the least interesting out of all the promotions. Flair was their champion for most of the time until Kamala took it from him. They have also the least star power, with Tully Blanchard as the other only significant star for them.
NJPW
New Japan are often super aggressive and that's no different here. The biggest coup they accomplished was the signing of Jumbo Tsuruta in 86, basically deciding the Japanese wrestling war in one move.
What's wild is that Jumbo was also the reigning NWA World Heavyweight Champion at that time and continued to be until only a few weeks before the current game state in March.
Being NWA World Champion, he also defended the title in main events on All Japan shows, what I interpreted as a truce between Baba and Inoki in some way because Inoki knows that he needs the competition from Baba to let New Japan thrive even more.
Inoki made it even crazier by putting the IWGP Heavyweight title on him as well, so he had both belts at the same time making especially the defenses for All Japan even more heated. Well, in the end, Jumbo dropped the belt to Bill Dundee what should give you enough information about the state of the NWA.

Again, apologies for the long post, but without certain background information, the awesomeness of this save couldn't properly be conveyed.

Im so excited, i keep checking back everytime i pick up my phone
Haha, same here! Really awesome work being done here !

I am booking AWA in a 1985 mod. We are in June 1987. It became quickly one of the most interesting saves I've ever had.
Not only did Bill Watts leave the NWA with Mid South, but WWF closed down in late 86 as well.
Now there are three major players in the US:
UWF (formerly Mid South) with Ric Flair, Big John Studd, Paul Orndorff, Kamala and Jake Roberts.
WCW (formerly JCP) with Hulk Hogan, Dusty Rhodes, Andre The Giant, Harley Race and Ricky Steamboat.
AWA's top stars are Randy Savage, Roddy Piper, Magnum TA, Kerry Von Erich & Curt Hennig.
The save started out pretty basic. I wanted to get to Medium so I can actually go on and compete with Vince. Well Vince beat himself. Putting the Heavyweight Title on Greg Valentine for a 1 year reign basically put the company out of business. Adding to that Hulk Hogan only had 18 matches in 86, compared to Ric Flair, who had around 180, that is nothing.
I just finished a huge storyline involving most of my top talent because I introduced basically my take on Horsemen or Rat Pack: The Syndicate. With Ted DiBiase, Curt Hennig, Jerry Lawler and later Steve Williams as final member, they were dominating the title scene and it was Magnum with his friends Kerry von Erich, Butch Reed and Larry Zbyszko to take them on, what resulted in the very first Cell Wars match!
Now I got a couple of months left to build for my season finale where the main event is planned as Randy Savage vs Magnum TA.
Savage has his own kind of faction, the Macho Army, with Miss Elizabeth, mentor Superstar Billy Graham and Gino Hernandez who Superstar brought along. Well, the story will go that Gino and Superstar turn on Liz and Randy, making them babyfaces and ushering in the era of Randy as figurehead after he served as the territory's top heel for two and a half years. They are in fact scheduled to turn on Randy in the main event of the biggest show of the year costing Randy the title.
After the feud with Gino, Savage will be back in the title hunt to take the belt from the champ at that time. I'm thinking Piper but unfortunately his gimmick is rated as Poor what makes booking him in the main events quite difficult as that costs those direly needed points to beat WCW and UWF.
The actual most fun I have in the game are with the TV and US Tag Team titles.
Rick Martel just won the TV Title Contender League (10 Man Round Robin) what was basically born out of necessity as I have a lot of unaffiliated wrestlers in the Recognisable and Well Known category. Storyline reason for the tournament was that TV champion Greg Valentine found a loophole in his contract that would allow the TV champion once a year to compose a tournament to crown his next challenger. Well, Greg 'The Hammer' and his chickenshit manager Jim Cornette obviously were looking for a way to keep the title in their possession the longest and wear the contender out. Pretty fun stuff right there. Also booking guys like Don Kernodle, Tommy Rich, Kevin Sullivan or Jim Neidhart in their primes is just a ton of fun.
The US Tag Title is kind of my momentum and popularity booster to be quite honest. But while the World Tag Team Titles are mostly defended at PPVs and on occasion even in PPV main events, the US Tag Titles are your usual midcard tag titles where great teams like The Fantastics, The Sheepherders, The Mechanics (Robert Gibson and Buddy Roberts) or The Tokyo Underworld (Mr Saito and Tiger Chung Lee).
Sorry for the long post but I rarely do those even though I would love to tell more people about it TBH haha

Playing the AWA in a 1985 scenario. Now in 87. WWF folded and basically Mid-South, JCP and us absorped most of their talent.
My champions are:
AWA World Heavyweight: Magnum TA (2 x)
AWA United States Title: Kerry Von Erich (3x)
AWA World Tag Team: Jerry Lawler & Steve Williams (1x)
AWA World Television: Greg Valentine (1x)
AWA U.S. Tag Team: Steiner Brothers (1x)
Champion for UWF (I thought it would be a good moment for both JCP and Mid South to undergo their respective name changes) is Flair and for WCW it's Hogan. Also their figureheads. I got Savage too, but used him as my top heel until now and I'm thinking about turning him baby and giving him a figurehead run.
-
Wow, these look so cool. I'll send you mine via PM as well, if you don't mind! <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

Fantastic mod, but it took me a while to figure it if I wanna give WAR in PR a go or go for WSW. The roster of WSW was too cool to turn down. I love that you have Shamrock as a big star because I truly believe that he could've been a lot bigger in pro wrestling.
I really like also following the title histories and figuring out what kind of programs were at the top of each promotion. Really organic, cool promotion ideas and a world I can't wait to dive in deeper. Thank you very much!
On the title history note though: I'm missing the history of the WSW World's Television Title. Was established in 87 but no history there.
-
hey guys, might be more of a gameplay thing than the mod's doing, but there are no new workers coming into the game world. Anybody know how to add that in a save game? couldnt find a proper option in preferences.
-
Similar problem for me, just my laptop got stolen (along with my backpack), so I have no chance to unlicense it on my old laptop. What to do in that situation?
-
This must have been asked before, but would a popularity filter be possible in the editor?
Would be really useful for modding I think.
-
Where is the in-game difference between a loyal worker and a trueborn? I know the trueborn term from Japanese wrestling so basically trained by the company and signed right away I guess?
Is there anywhere I could read up more on anything loyalty?
Does it develop after a while or is it like it was in 2016?
-
<p>Really appreciate the work. I don't know exactly why, but I always connected more with the 05 and 97 Cornellverse. More of a gameplay question or observation I made playing the first couple of months:</p><p> </p><p>
I always loved in TEW16 taking GCG in 05 and getting them to survive by relying on Takayuki 2000, Gakusha and a little bit of the old guard. I always was able to make it happen and it took me a couple of years to make GCG a leading power in Japan again. </p><p> </p><p>
Well with the way how aggressive A.I. hiring is in 20, I find myself basically with a completely depleted roster after two weeks of in-game-time, losing money left-and-right and finding it extremely difficult to survive. Does anybody have any tips how to tough it through?</p>

While I think Zeel1's post was very valid and actually helped me personally be a little less 'upset' if you want to call it that I still wanted to share my feelings about some issues I discovered playing the Beta. I apologize in advance if I repeat things other people have mentioned before but I didn't read the whole thread.
Being on board since the very early days, I've played every single iteration and I still fondly remember the very first TEW (which I can't find anywhere unfortunately; I guess it must be a rights issue) and the incredible step up it was from EWR. Just being able to play in Japan was such a game changer for me. But I digress..
First of all, I really think the game was released too early but obviously Adam also realized this. It's an ambitious project and while there are certain parts that might be just kind of new or different from TEW16 that just take some time to get used to, there are parts that make the game experience just less enjoyable for me.
1) Products
This is a big one for a lot of people, me included. I don't enjoy the confinements it presents me with and my go-to product from TEW16 is even after all the updates still not really possible or with some added things I really don't want to book. Having Eye Candy requirements in so many entertainment based products is just a nuisance and I really have not seen any product in real life except for parts of ECW and obviously WWF Attitude where that is actually a thing. I would love a comeback of the open system but I guess it's not happening.
2) User Interface
Why are there soo many buttons?! It's not even the initial issues encountered in terms of the color scheme and fonts but I wished there would be maybe an option to group some of the buttons it would be great.
3) I want to use my mouse roller!
I think it was fixed for a couple of different areas but one it hasn't thus far is scrolling through pictures! It is such a pain to click every picture individually.
4) Filters stay on
This really just might be something I have to get used to but up until now I'm not the biggest fan.
Those are just some random observations I've made thus far and I'm sure most if not all of them have been mentioned before. Cheers!

I did a Classics degree so I often try to adapt Greek/Roman literature/history into storylines. One I do frequently is form a stable called The Triumvirate with one veteran (Crassus), one established Main Event guy (Pompey) and one newer Main Event guy with a lot of upside and potential (Caesar) who have an unsteady alliance held together by the veteran and run roughshod over the top of the card, which generally leads to the veteran retiring in some way (either retired by someone they are feuding with or one of the other two turning) and the remaining two imploding and feuding for supremacy. The bigger version has the Caesar character taking on a new stable broadly representing Mark Anthony, Cassius, Brutus and Augustus, which ends up in Caesar getting betrayed then a tag feud between Cassius/Brutus and Anthony/Augustus before finally Augustus (who starts the whole thing as a rookie) turning on Anthony to get his first world title and start his own era.
Most complete version I did of that adaptation was an almost four year arc, pretty satisfying.
My other favourite was a three year arc inspired by the Odyssey but that involved a year-long kayfabe injury so unlikely to do that one the same way again.
Oh, wow I actually did the exact same storyline before. I don't have a classics degree, but 9 years of Latin and 4 years of Ancient Greek will do that to ya, I guess. My bigger version saw also kind of Caesar getting a new faction afterwards, but then with a more broader outline. I did it in a early 90s mod with WWF:
Crassus: Hogan
Pompey: Randy Savage
Caesar: Lex Luger (who I stole from WCW ^^)

Exercise?? Exercise. We're talking about exercise. Not a game, not a match, but exercise.
Gotta love me some AI.
Damn, I'm GMT+8 here, so it will probably drop tomorrow for me as well. :/

I came up with a unique set of rules to enter the real world with a lower-sized promotion that I will create to challenge ROH, Impact and similar competitors to eventually become number #2 behind WWE some day.
One of the major rules will be that I can only sign 5 "rather unrealistic" talents max. and none of the huge superstars at all. The roster will mainly consist of those in their mid 30s to 40s who did not make it big and could be signed easily, mainly underrated wrestlers I personally liked for the most part, such as Zack Sabre Jr., Low Ki, Eddie Kingston, the Briscoes, Alexander Otsuka, Sami Callihan or Chris Hero. 2 of these 5 "stars" will be KENTA and RVD, I haven't figured out the rest yet.
I think the games are in general more fun if you impose some rules on your hiring process, as I do the same in my intended save described above.
Even though I'd see Hero or Zack Sabre Jr. as quite the big names already with their respective fame from NXT and NJPW.
It really comes down to your product I'd say. If the product is more steered towards in-ring performance I always found it quite easy to get out a good product after around 6-8 shows and be competitive. Starting smaller with a pop based fed is what is more challenging. At least for me it always has been like that.

<p>I'm already setting up the Rising Storms 91 Mod for a conversion. Given the new Training Facility depth, I'm inclined to delete 95% of all workers to debut and just turn on new workers from 92 onwards. </p><p> </p><p> Going to play All Japan and wanna be down to a max of 6 foreigners in the roster by late 93(Stan Hansen and Steve Williams are locks, then probably Kroffat & LaFon, and then one more younger Heavyweight and a touring Mexican junior). Not more than three tour signings a year to keep the roster very organic. Really excited to play around with the new tournament tracker for Champion Carnival but also considering actually promoting the Odo Tournament they've been doing for the last couple of years, so I got a elimination tournament in there as well. </p><p> </p><p> Gonna be a challenge to not be super repetitive with the main events, as except for the four pillars there is not too much coming up there. Guys like Andre, Abdullah and Terry Funk might get one or two goodbye tours but then the focus switches to the main roster. In the rising storms mod there are so many odd Americans in the roster, who were there for a cup of coffee only, like Glen Ruth f.e. lol </p><p> </p><p> Very difficult is going to be the Junior Division, because if I go by the aforementioned rules, I really only have Masanobu Fuchi, Tsuyoshi Kikuchi and Yoshinari Ogawa as Japanese juniors as of right now and my own character(I always put a character with good potential but pretty bad starting stats as the booker in my promotions), who is a good two years from being any threat in any division. </p><p> </p><p> I'm gonna play around a lot with the new Tour options and as I have not read the complete Dev Journal to have a couple of surprises as well, I'm excited how accurate I'm able to book tours now because in TEW16 I always ended up gaming the system by having three to four shows a week during a tour. ^^</p><p> </p><p> Well if anybody actually took the time to read all this, I guess it's quite apparent that I'm super excited for this! Now, it's time to read up on you guys' plans! <img alt=":)" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-username="BoredomTM" data-cite="BoredomTM" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="47197" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>The company went bankrupt and so there are no files...but you might be able to download it again by fiddling with those internet archive pages.</div></blockquote><p> </p><p> Haha that must be a coincidence because I was actually looking for the game today. I also booted up the old Extreme Warfare Deluxe with DOSBox. Good memories in the teenage days haha</p>

Reggie Parks, working for my AWA already five years has a monthly to bi-monthly request, that I - at this point - would love to grant him.
I have no idea what kind of situation is supposed to have changed, but I'm curious what could cause this to be a regular thing?
PS: Sorry, somehow couldn't put the picture up directly in the post.
