  1. Some good news... starting to feel better lately and found the time to push through with the rest of the PWG edits. Pro Wrestling Guerrilla is now complete.
  2. Very nice work on these! I see a lot of my logos from the diagonal pack were remade in this style and look great!
  3. Hasn’t been a fun month in the household, I’m sad to report. My eye is healed up nice, but the state dropped the news that they are closing the prison I work at so to say that news has caused a lot of stress and worry would be putting it mildly. I’m not sure where I’m going to be reassigned, but it’s likely that I’m now going to have to travel 2-4 hours away for work instead of the 20 mins I do now. This will require me to have to load my work schedule to working 4-5 shifts at the beginning or end of the week, hoping I can find a place to stay, and then come home and take care of everything that needs to be done. On top of that, this added stress has caused my Crohn’s Disease, which was in remission, to be completely out of control again and I physically feel like hell. Because of that, I’m going to have to put the status of this mod as ON HOLD. I could get lucky and get assigned to one of the other nearby facilities, but that’s looking very slim. I’ll have an update if that does indeed happen.
  4. Velvet Sky posted on Instagram that her and Bully Ray broke up
  5. DirecTV PPV, Dish Network PPV, Time Warner Cable PPV all aired WCW PPV events. You could give a contract to any one of those depending on how the game world is set up.
  6. I was getting a bunch of work done on PWG, but unfortunately I had in accident in my garage with an air nailer (a nail came through a piece of wood and hit me in the eye). Looks like I got lucky and my vision won’t be permanently damaged, but it will be a few weeks before I can comfortably pay attention to a computer screen for a few hours at a time
  7. A reminder of his/her birth year and age would be great in the alter ego section too! I can't tell you how many times I've had to click back out, find a worker's birth year, calculate what age they were when they started to use a certain gimmick and then go back in.
  8. Bumping this thread with more graphics I've made that will be released with my April 2004 mod, but posting here in case anyone has use for them in the meantime: Promotions: Custom Promotions: Stables:

  10. I don’t think Chavo is actually gone for good, he’s working as a coordinator on a wrestling series and is expected to come back.
  11. Gif is a bit more immersive as the workers picture is bordered by the company logos of the companies they work for and the stables they are in. Like this:
  12. Throwing out a suggestion, if there is a chance that something can be done to lower the frequency of the AI borrowing a worker from an Alliance who is vastly more over than anyone on their roster and then jobbing them to their roster members. It seems to happen a lot when trying to set up anything similar to the NWA in real world mods. For instance, NWA Wildside (25% popularity in South East US - with their entire roster at that, or under) has borrowed Scott Steiner from the NWA (70% pop across all of the US) - and proceeded to use him for a 4 episode TV taping where he lost to Slim J (19 SE Pop), Delirious (19 SE Pop), Ray Gordy (21 SE Pop) and Rick Michaels and Tank (27 SE Pop each) in a tag team match where he tamed with Iceberg (27 SE Pop). I understand that these workers are considered "stars" within the confines of Wildside's size and popularity, and AI will probably want to job the bigger star out to boost the popularity of their own workers, but they probably shouldn't get away with doing it a majority of the time - especially when the difference in star power is so vast.
  13. NWA Wildside is now complete Remember what I said about having all US promotions with large rosters done? Boy, was I wrong. I had no idea Wildside housed nearly 50 workers and staff at this point in time, and many of them needed to be added from scratch into the data. In reality, Wildside's belts should have the lineage of the classic NWA Georgia titles attached - but I'd rather not see Dusty Rhodes listed as a former NWA Wildside Heavyweight Champion. So, I may add the classic belts and lineages as retired titles sometime in the future.
  14. You can add it as a retired title and the AI may make it active down the road, but theres no way to guarantee it.
  15. This^^^ If this thread is important to you, bookmark it and you will always have a quick link to it.
  16. NWA Florida is now complete This one was actually quite a time consuming challenge to add, as they have a lot of lesser known/obscure workers on their roster that had to be added to the data. On top of that, I'd originally only added title histories from the relaunch of NWA Florida. I went back and added the histories dating all the way back through the 60's/70's during the Championship Wrestling From Florida days so that older stars like The Funks, Dusty Rhodes, etc all have those reigns reflected in their histories. Considering Mike Graham has over 20 something reigns as tag champ, you can probably imagine that I put a bunch of hours into that task.
  17. I took a break on the mod for a bit, but I'm working on it again and I'm fleshing out NWA Florida - which required a lot of new workers being added. Should have NWA Florida completed in the next few days. No timetable for the BETA yet.

  19. Nashville, TN - Formerly known as Championship Wrestling from Tennessee, National Championship Wrestling is a promotion once again on the rise. Currently owned by former MMA promoter Saul Keaton, CWT was opened by Austin McCall in 1974. An entertaining but minor territory for much of the next thirty years, it wasn't until the company was taken over by well-known sports broadcaster JD Briscoe in 2002 that the company really began to shine. However, by 2014 cashflow problems had hit the company again, and as attendances slipped with the success of PWI and the AWF, CWT were forced to release many of its biggest stars to balance the books. After Saul Keaton's 2016 takeover the company have undergone a notable upswing, recently signing a national TV deal for the first time in eight years. Many expected Keaton to transform the promotion, but his success has come by emphasizing the company's heritage, appealing to many a lapsed fan with the old school graphics and in-ring product. STARTING ROSTER (AND FIRST IMPRESSIONS): Abraham Moore, 34 years old, 14 years pro, Babyface Throwback: A journeyman jobber for most of his career, Moore got his big break in a rival promotion due to unexpected fan support thanks to what TEW says was "a perfect combination of his fiery brawling, desire and never say die attitude." His new found success caught the attention of our owner Saul Keaton who signed him to a written deal in 2020. He is the current NCW Heritage Champion, and has held the company's secondary title for 140 days and 6 successful title defenses. Alan Doering, 28 years old, 4 years pro, Heel, Traditionalist: A dependable brawler who apparently grew up watching VHS tapes of southern style wrestling, Doering is a throwback to the no-nonsense tough guys of the 70s and 80s. He's getting his first shot at the national stage with NCW after spending his first four years on the indy scene. American Lightning, 22 years old, 3 years pro, Babyface, Masked Patriot: A skilled young high flyer, American Lightning has no trouble connecting with fans due to his patriotic gimmick and high flying style. However, it's apparently "very unlikely" to industry insiders (according to TEW) that he will become a top star in the promotion unless something major changes as it is apparently not likely for a high flyer to headline the company. Aubrey Abelson, 27 years old, 4 years pro, Heel, Entitled Starlet: TEW says (in nicer words) that she's an unapologetic arrogant bitch that is a model turned wrestler by way of the ThunderVerse's version of the WWE Diva Search (AWF Search for a Starlet) - making it to the finals before being eliminated. After failing to win the contest she turned back to modeling until NCW came calling for the launch of the Women's Division in 2018. Her gimmick is "Entitled Starlet," so she's apparently playing the age old "herself with the volume turned up to 11" schtick. Belle Star, 27 years old, 7 years pro, Heel Party Animal: A Canadian valet known for her hard partying in real life, she is apparently another case of "herself with the volume turned up" in NCW. She manages her real life fiance Tyler Moon. TEW notes that she has a famously high pitched voice, so I'm going to assume she does a Vickie Guerrero-esque annoying schtick on the mic. Big Bubba, 32 years old, 11 years pro, Babyface, No-Nonsense Bad Ass: A two time former NCW World Champion and 10 year veteran of the company, Big Bubba plays a Bad Ass prison warden. However, despite that success, his days in the company seem numbered as his second reign as champion exposed his in ring weaknesses and he was pushed down the card in 2015. An argument with the new owner of NCW, Saul Keaton right before he took over the promotion apparently hasn't done him any favors either. This guy is totally based on Big Boss Man, right? Brady Taylor, 31 years old, 11 years pro, Heel, Old School Heel: A consistent, if not truly talented worker who apparently idolized a dude named Ricky Santana growing up (I'm just going to assume he'd T-Verse's Ricky "The Dragon" Steamboat"), Taylor has found his way on our roster by apparently impressing his idol enough for Santana get him a gig as one of the promotion's enhancement talents. Brit Riley, 25 years old, 4 years pro, Heel, The 'Net's Big Thing: A second generation wrestler, Riley's joining of the NCW Women's Division apparently came as a surprise to some industry insiders as her surname comes with a bit of infamy due to her father having been caught embezzling funds from a promotion. It's apparently a case of natural talent overcoming the burden of family name. However, TEW says she has a bully personality type, so maybe the apple doesn't fall too far from the tree... Cedric Blake, 35 years old, 16 years pro, Heel, Big League Star: TEW says that despite the fact that Blake is a decent technical wrestler with solid performance skills, he's spent his career as a nomad. Why? Because he's a bit of an asshole. He also has a scumbag personality type. Oh, he'd going to be fun to manage... Chaperone, 51 years old, 31 years pro, Heel, Scumbag: I apparently bumped this dude out of a job as head booker with my foray into the ThunderVerse... oops! That's ok though, as not only does TEW tell me that he plays a scumbag on TV, he also has the scumbag personality type! He's a member of the ThunderVerse's Hall of Immortals, so he's had a storied career in the game world. He's apparently responsible for the turn around of the company and the signing of much of the roster. He's also a master politician backstage. I don't think I'll be keeping him around. "Vastly Superior" Clayton Bennett, 33 years old, 16 years pro, Heel, Vastly Superior: A charismatic heel that made his pro debut at the age of 17, Bennett overcame a serious car accident that shattered his knee and went on to work for a number of US promotions and tour Japan. He's married into a supposed famous wrestling family as his wife is the sister of Nick and Jesse Bell. He's also the brother in law of NCW Champion James Gillmour. Commissioner Butch Hackett, 61 years old, 37 years pro, Babyface, Commissioner: A fan favorite veteran and former professional football player whose heyday was in the 80's, Hackett looks like "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan, and the idea of Hacksaw trying to dress in a nice shirt and slacks while playing commissioner amuses me, so that's that... Curtis Windham, 25 years old, 7 years pro, Babyface, Second Generation Star: He's basically the T-Verse's version of Bo Dallas (Taylor Windham), who has spent much of his career tagging with his brother Teddy Windham (who looks an awful lot like Bo's brother Husky Harris/Bray Wyatt). His father's name is Owen Money (Get it? Owing Money) and is the T-Verse's version of IRS. Curtis and Teddy's tag team name? The IRS. TEW says he's talented and charismatic, but likely lacks the "It Factor" to be a huge star. Perhaps all he has to do is... BOlieve? Danny Azaria, 28 years old, 8 years pro, Babyface, Puerto Rican Proud: A sound all-rounder, Azaria had a hell of a career in his native Puerto Rico as one of its top stars before making the jump to National championship wrestling in 2020 in search of national stardom. Diabla, 30 years old, 7 years pro, Heel, Devil's Daughter: The sister of a popular Mexican luchador named Luzbel, Diabla was trained by her brother in 2013. After moving to the US and using a tweaked version of her sibling's gimmick, she became a standout in the women's scene before joining the roster in 2020. Donald McCarver, 32 years old, 6 years pro, Babyface, Former Baseball Catcher: Yes, you read that right. This guy's entire gimmick is that he'd a former baseball catcher. You would think that if you were going to base your entire gimmick on being a former catcher, you would have at least made it to the big leagues. Well, not McCarver. After being signed out of high school, he floated around AAA until a nasty collision at home plate ended his chances of making it to "The Show." His failure at making it to the big leagues in baseball put a chip on his shoulder led him to numerous bar fights and finally the idea that beating people up for a living might be fun, thus, he became a pro wrestler. In NCW, he teams with an actual former pro baseball player by the name of Tex Gruber as The Battery, and yes he is very touchy about the fact that his tag partner actually made it to the majors in America's so-called favorite past time. Ezra Santana, 33 years old, 14 years pro, Babyface, Father's Son: The eldest son of jobber Brady Taylor's favorite wrestling legend Ricky Santana, Ezra shares many similarities to his father including passion and spirit for the business. He first gained national exposure in another US promotion where he feuded with his father's arch nemesis Guy Lothario's son Eric, igniting the Lothario/Santana feud his father took part in over the 80s and 90s and making it a family affair. After a short spell in Puerto Rico he returned to the US, and eventually found his way here last year. FJK, 40 years old, 21 years pro, Babyface, Pure Wrestler: FJK stands for "Finch James Kendall." He's the company's resident gatekeeper, known for being reliable for a good performance each and every time he steps in the ring. He sometimes teams up with Big Bubba, with the duo calling themselves "Tradition Inc." Hannah Gold, 30 years old, 5 years pro, Babyface, Backstage Interviewer: A massive wrestling fan, Gold's fantastic looks and excellent charisma made her stand out on the indy scene as an on screen interviewer and occasional manager. She joined NCW in 2018 as an on air interviewer. James Gilmour, 38 years old, 19 years pro, Heel, English Pitbull: The reigning and defending NCW Worlds Heavyweight Champion, Gilmour rose to prominence when he married into wrestling's famous Bell family. He formed a strong bond with brother-in-law Nick Bell and alongside his friend Scott Nichols, the trio made names for themselves in America. After his marriage ended in divorce, he traveled to Japan where he found singles success. From there he became a marquee signing for NCW and in October of 2020, he captured his first NCW Worlds Heavyweight Title. Good looking English World's Heavyweight Champion leading a modern throwback promotion? That sounds familiar. With a little tweaking... Ah, there we go. I think I've found our "National Treasure." Johnny Hollywood, 39 years old, 11 years pro, Heel, Hollywood Movie Star: Added to the NCW roster after the buyout of a competing promotion, Johnny Hollywood instantly slotted right in with his new surroundings. The former NCW Worlds Heavyweight Champion leads The Entourage, a stable of hired guns consisting of Killer McKree and The Gibson Brothers who always make sure that the numbers are in Hollywood's favor. "Absolute Alpha" Josh Rocksworth, 24 years old, 3 years pro, Heel, Varsity Jock: An All-American amateur wrestler and college football player, Rocksworth entered the business through one of the larger promotion's wrestling schools and alongside, Jordan (Julio) James as The Ballers, became two of the fastest rising stars until they were sacked in a cost-cutting exercise just six months into their run. They eventually made their way here to NCW where they remain one of the top tag teams, and former Northern Tag Team Champions. Julio James, 25 years old, 4 years pro, Heel, Baller: The other half of The Ballers, James is a second generation worker and the son of a professional basketball player. After being scouted for multiple professional sports teams, he chose to give wrestling a go, following in the footsteps of his mother. TEW says he has potential to be a big star in the future. We shall see.. Kabuki Doll, 41 years old, 21 years pro, Babyface, Oriental Mystery: TEW describes her as a decorated Joshi mainstay who journeyed outside of Japan for new challenges in 2017. After three years of struggling to translate her success in Japan to the western pro wrestling landscape, she thought about returning to Japan but was thrown a lifeline and became a part of the roster in 2020. "The Canadian Viking" Karl Brodie, 29 years old, 4 years pro, Heel, Modern Viking: A bulky heavyweight brawler from Canada, Brodie has found himself a spot on the roster due to his impressive size and power. Killer McKree, 31 years old, 7 years pro, Heel, Merciless Brute: A former strong man competitor and big heavyweight brawler from Texas, McKree started out as yet another monster running through a gauntlet of jobbers. It wasn't until he joined Jesse Mills' Life Without Fear stable that his career really took off with him serving as the muscle for the group. It's a position he has come to shine in, as he was recruited by Johnny Hollywood to serve the same role in The Entourage faction. "Big Fun" Luther Charles, 35 years old, 14 years pro, Babyface, Big Fun Time: The fun loving fan favorite Charles began his career in Puerto Rico before heading to NCW (Then Championship Wrestling From Tennessee) where he became a fixture in the television title scene, winning the belt multiple times. All of his years of hard work paid off in 2017 when he defeated MMA Bad Ass Miguel Guardado for the NCW World's Heavyweight Championship. Mace Manzone, 37 years old, 5 years pro, Babyface, Sportscaster: A former radio show host, Manzone was known nationally for his "Man Zone with Mace Manzone" talk show where he talked sports and let it be known to callers and listeners that he was a huge wrestling fan. He recently joined the company to be the voice of the nationally broadcast Championship Wrestling television show. Matt Gibson, 33 years old, 10 years pro, Heel, Pure Bad Ass: The older of The Gibson Brothers, both Matt and his brother Mike were excellent football players in school, but found professional wrestling a more desirable career choice. Fairly similar in style, neither Gibson is particularly charismatic but their brute force and no-nonsense approach have made them one of the most decorated tandems in National Championship Wrestling, having won both the Northern and Southern Tag Team Titles. That success made them top choices for Johnny Hollywood's Entourage. Megan Ferrell, 32 years old, 8 years pro, Babyface, Country Style: The reigning NCW Women's Champion, Ferrell is a reality TV star turned professional wrestler. She starred in the reality TV show "HOLLER!" which followed a group of twenty-somethings from Alabama as they partied and found their way in life. Having expressed throughout the show her fandom of professional wrestling, she was contacted for the Become A Starlet competition. A firm fan favorite, it came as a surprise to many when she was named the runner up in the competition. Thought to have been finished with the wrestling business, she returned to television before surprising everyone when she made her way to National Championship Wrestling after being hand-picked to head the Women's Division. Miguel Guardado, 44 years old, 18 years pro, Babyface, MMA Champ: Not the first MMA convert, Guardado was nevertheless the first to truly make an impact at the highest level in the United States when he captured a major championship in 2004. After a three year run at a high level, he returned to MMA in 2008 with Cage Titans MMA. Rumours abounded for years that Guardado would return to the squared circle, and in the end it was former Cage Titans MMA President Saul Keaton - at the time a stakeholder in Championship Wrestling from Tennessee that finally convinced him to lace up his boots. Making an immediate impact, Guardado has remained a key player in the success of the company, particularly since the rebranding to National Championship Wrestling. Mike Gibson, 30 years old, 10 years pro, Heel, Pure Bad Ass: The younger half of The Gibson Brothers and member of The Entourage. Mike Santorelli, 32 years old, 10 years pro, Babyface, Jersey Shore: An Italian-American from New Jersey, Santorelli is talented and charismatic, playing the "Jersey Shore" party boy gimmick. Richie Santana, 63 years old, 44 years pro, Babyface, Old School Face: Remember when I assumed he was the ThunderVerse version of Ricky Steamboat? Yeah, I was correct. He's a member of the in-game "Hall of Immortals," which means he's kind of a big deal. Here is his TEW bio: "Santana is widely regarded as one of the greatest of his generation. Captivating audiences in the late 1980s and early 1990s with a seemingly never-ending feud with Guy Lothario helping keep the Real American Wrestling Alliance a strong contender to WWW, Richie was ever the gentleman which contrasted with the more boisterous and flamboyant Lothario in and outside of the ring. Never really holding the ambition to become a top star, Santana's career was also held down by noticeable friction with wrestling legend Terry Thunder - this friction sparked by the fact Santana vs Lothario from WrestleAid '88 stealing the spotlight from Thunder's headline bout. Retiring in 2002, Santana swiftly moved to a career behind the curtain and as of 2021, he is working alongside his eldest son Ezra Santana in Tennessee with National Championship Wrestling." Rufus Wright, 49 years old, 28 years pro, Heel, Wrestling's Brain: A retired American wrestler, Wright spent much of his career up north in Calgary. In the mid 90s he used a "King of Wrestling" gimmick to great success, but by 2006 his push had stalled out so he chose to retire. From there, he moved to the announce desk where he was known for constantly telling stories about his own career that, the majority of which were clearly false and made up. After making the move to NCW, he's mostly worked as the manager The Ballers. Sabine, 30 years old, 12 years pro, Babyface, Fan's Own: A German worker that began her career in Europe, she initially found more work as a valet than as a wrestler and almost retired from the business until a new European promotion finally gave her a chance to ply her trade in the ring in 2013. Upon her success in Europe, the US came calling and she joined the NCW roster in 2018 to take part in the Women's Division. Despite being a favorite of the fans, she is yet to hold the Women's Title. Smokin' Stevie Gunn, 52 years old, 36 years pro, Babyface, Living Legend: The near 40 year veteran has played the "Tennessee Cowboy" character so well and for so long that even his friends can't tell where his wrestling gimmick ends and his real personality begins. During his active days, Gunn was one of the few veterans who would put over younger talent. These days he works as a manager, with current clients Curtis Windham and Danny Azaria. Tara Vice, 28 years old, 9 years pro, Heel, Rebel Punk: With her shock of purple hair, tattoos and numerous piercings, Vice may just be the most unique looking female wrestler in the company, if not the industry as a whole. A brawler by style, Vice isn't afraid to mix it up with some aerial attacks and even the odd spot of mat wrestling. Charismatic and with a look like no other, she has only just landed in NCW. Tex Gruber, 32 years old, 6 years pro, Babyface, Baseball Pitcher: Once a top prospect out of Texas, Gruber made it all the way to the big leagues of baseball and even held the closer role in New York. But a torn rotator cuff in the deciding game of a league divisional series turned out to be an abrupt end to his career. A lifetime fan of pro wrestling, Gruber soon began to train for a new career inside the squared circle. Hoping to take advantage of his popularity, he kept fans up to date with his progress by posting a blog on his personal website. Gruber can be a rough customer backstage, but he's been able to hold down steady work in wrestling due to his brawling and natural toughness. After a previous run in the company lasted for a cup of coffee, he has returned to NCW and developed a team with Donald McCarver. The !Answer!, 44 years old, 26 years pro, Heel, Masked Heel: Behind the white exclamation point mask is "The Bald One" Matt Cole, best known as a career enhancement talent. After more than two decades of doing the job (quite literally), he contemplated retirement before donning the mask and teaming up with fellow journeyman Kevin Kale to form the old school masked wrestler tandem known as Q&A. The ?Question?, 36 years old, 18 years pro, Heel, Old School Masked Heel: Well, this looks familiar. I wonder if he is a master of Mongrovian Karate? The ?Question? is the partner of The !Answer!. Under the mask is journeyman Kevin "K2" Kale who, despite showing promise early on in his career, spent the majority of the time on his back counting the lights and making everyone else look good. The change of gimmick has brought new life to his career, with the tag team catching on and holding gold in NCW. The Kat, 30 years old, 6 years pro, Babyface, Cat Person: Signed to the roster in 2020 to further build the women's ranks, The Kat spent most of her early years dialing up the gimmick as a literal wrestling cat, going as far as to cut promos doing nothing more than purring and even wearing removable claws and a tail during her entrance. Since joining the roster, she's turned down the weirdness a bit, but still remains perhaps the most "out there" worker in the company. "Primetime" Theo Barkley, 38 years old, 13 years pro, Babyface, Baller: A former college basketball standout, Barkley is a two time former NCW World's Heavyweight Champion who has been with the company since 2017. He's one of the company's biggest babyfaces and uses a "Baller" gimmick, which probably means he'll eventually have a few run in with The Ballers tag team. Trevor Lange, 35 years old, 8 years pro, Babyface, Army Veteran: A former US Army Captain, Lange put his professional wrestling dreams on hold and followed the family tradition of enlisting in the US military straight out of high school. After an honorable discharge, he finally followed his dreams and entered the business through the famed "Become a Star" competition using a hardened soldier gimmick and calling himself Major Damage. After joining NCW, he quickly formed a tag team with fellow military veteran Will MacLeod known as "The Veterans." Tyler Moon, 34 years old, 10 years pro, Heel, Filthy Animal: Aussie Tyler Moon is entertaining worker with a dirty form of charisma with a rather questionable gimmick as a troubled party animal. Managed by his fiance Belle Star, the couple has started to really catch on with the fans. "Crzy" Will MacLeod, 35 years old, 8 years pro, Babyface, Former Marine: A former US Marine, MacLeod earned the "Crzy" nickname on his tours overseas. After getting out of the armed forces, he tried his hand at professional MMA before moving onto pro wrestling after being urged that it was a more lucrative career choice. He is the other half of The Veterans alongside Trevor Lange, with the duo currently holding the NCW Southern Tag Team Titles. Champions: NCW Worlds Heavyweight Champion: James Gilmour (Since Wk 4, October 2020) Formerly known as the CWT World Heavyweight title, the NCW Worlds Heavyweight championship has been a fixture in Southern wrestling since the 1970s. The company is hoping its rebrand will allow the title to be truly considered national by fans. Former Champions on Active Roster: Johnny Hollywood (2x), Theo Barkley (2x), Miguel Guardado (2x), Luther Charles (1x), Big Bubba (1x) and Smokin' Steve Gunn (10x) NCW Heritage Champion: Abraham Moore (Since Wk 1, August 2020) Previously known as the CWT Television title and then the CWT Mid-Southern title, the NCW Heritage belt has had a lot of, well, heritage, but not a lot of consistency during its many years in operation. Former Champions on the Active Roster: Clayton Bennett, Luther Charles (4x), Curtis Windham, Big Bubba (2x), Killer McKree and Mike Santorelli NCW Women's World Champion: Megan Ferrell (Since Wk 2, October 2020) The NCW Women's World title was created by Saul Keaton in 2018. Although Keaton has previously made disparaging comments about women's wrestling, since joining the sport he seems to be booking the division strongly. Former Champions on Active Roster: Kabuki Doll, The Kat, Tara Vice (x2) NCW Southern Tag Team Champions: The Veterans - Will MacLeod and Trevor Lange (Since Wk 3, March 2020) Formerly known as the CWT United States Tag Team title, the NCW Southern Tag belts were rechristened upon the company's rebranding. Alongside the Northern Tag titles, it will be interesting to see if the company has enough teams to manage both belts. Former Championship Teams on the Active Roster: FJK and Big Bubba, The Battery (3x) and The Gibson Brothers NCW Northern Tag Team Champions: Q&A - The ?Question? and The !Answer! (Since Wk 3, November 2020) A new set of tag team titles created for National Championship Wrestling, the Northern Tag Team belts were added to the trophy cabinet to further emphasise the new "national" reach of the promotion. Former Championship Teams on the Active Roster: The Gibson Brothers (x3) and Killer McKree and Luther Charles
  20. <p>Getting away from the promotion roster building work a little bit, I spent the past three days and a ton of hours totally redoing the broadcasters, media groups and broadcasting deals in the game world. </p><p> </p><p> I completely deleted all of the broadcasters from the base data and with the help of imports from Questlove's RWC, some of gazwefc's mods, and my own tedious work I have rebuilt everything - Giving proper debut dates (the ones I could find), focus, media group ownership, regional limits, limits on the number of companies and time slots available for each, etc. This has solved the problem that plagued the Ruthless Aggression data where it seemed like it was a complete free for all with promotions getting weird deals all over the game world that they shouldn't have.</p><p> </p><p> All broadcast deals are now in line with how the game works. For instance, when a company like WWE in real life can have multiple deals with companies and providers in the same region, the game will not always allow you to do that. So I deleted all of the base broadcast deals, started a game as each promotion with tv or PPV and negotiated with each network to get the base for their deals. This way, all deals will be in line with the game engine and when they come due - you won't get surprised by not being able to re-sign or find another provider, or be screwed over by a station demanding exclusivity when you don't expect it.</p><p> </p><p> In the case of a company like WWE where they had multiple deals with companies in the same regions or game areas, I have went with the one that is most beneficial in game. For instance if they have a PPV deal with a company that only has small coverage, and one with massive coverage, I went with the largest (obviously). </p><p> </p><p> In the case of Japanese promotions where they had multiple tour highlight shows across different networks, I've done the same thing. If a larger provider demanded exclusivity in game while I was researching, that promotion got one tour highlight show with the biggest network instead of trying to game the system and editing in the multiple deals.</p><p> </p><p> I've also redone some 72 logos and combined them with the network logo pack gazwefc created for his Pipebomb mod. All networks have been gone through and, where I could, I made sure their logo reflected the one being used during the time period the mod is set.</p><p> </p><p>
