Should have gone away when it stopped being Live...at least rebrand it

<p>Thinking of doing a dynasty as Peter Michaels opening his own company - a touring NA company based in Mid South. I've got my bloated roster (per company size) ready to go. Planning on it to be a training ground for young workers with some popular (read: old) workers early on to help bring them along. Also hoping to make a star of a few vets who can still go.</p><p> </p><p> As a question - how quickly do you guys pull the plug on workers who aren't connecting with the fans?</p>

<p>For the two requests above:</p><p> </p><p> <img alt="BRU1JtB.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/BRU1JtB.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <img alt="IAhKA8T.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/IAhKA8T.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> <img alt="9vPEmKI.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/9vPEmKI.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="DVxzU2i.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/DVxzU2i.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="3pWucoe.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/3pWucoe.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

From an earlier request for a WWR Logo, in the spirit of the Attitude Era logo: And for the above stables, I may have forgotten "The" on some, can be added if needed. Wasn't sure what "Diaz" you were referring to, but if it's James Diaz I *think* he has a strong style background (don't have the game in front of me right this second - if it doesn't match the group, I'll take some guidelines). EDIT: Only did 2 for American Demolition because the logos were pretty easy to add. The Demon ones I could have gone crazy with, but I think I used the best of what I found. EDIT 2: looking at it now, not sure I like the Fire Demon one, so there might be an update to that.

Not to get off topic, but Goldberg lost clean (if 3 minutes outside the ring and 2 minutes in the ring after the bell is clean) to McIntyre last time around. I don't see the result being different this time around. And thanks for the context, Jaysin. Can definitely see how some might take exception with that part of it.

Are you referring to MJF/Jericho? I follow results only, so it probably lacks context but MJF won clean, right? Isn't that what should have happened? I personally think some of the Labors were out of order (either start with Juvi, or go Spears, Wardlow, Juvi, Gage, MJF). Either way, the most brutal match should set up the MJF one. The stipulation was silly though - no music? And not using the Judas Effect? I understand when the big guys can't use the powerbomb, since that's a go-to move. Maybe with context it would mean more.

For WCW, there is http://ddtdigest.com/ You may have to do some reading on each of the shows, but I think they explain what's happening pretty well in their write ups.

Is there a template people use for the GIF stable logos? I have never tried my hand at those, but I do see the requests often.

If it's not stepping on anyone's toes I might work on these as well. There's actually a few I may end up creating in my own game. Some great ideas there.

Do you mean the actual logos, just putting them on the 150x150? Or do you mean recreating from scratch/logos that are similar to those? Depending on your timeline I can take a stab at them - I have a few other projects (in here and real life), but always good to have an aim on the projects here.

Does the 3rd update (which I think was in another thread) include these two already in it? I had already updated some other mods, but trying to add some more to add to my default database (as well as the game in progress)

One of my earlier posts had two other "Destiny" logos as well.

I think it would be a good story to see Omega faltering under the weight of the titles he's collected, he starts losing them (while still being protected). Then he's doing everything he can to hold on to the AEW Title, the crown jewel of everything he'd collected. Him losing that to Hangman would still be huge - essentially Hangman vanquishing Omega on that character arc.

What is Christian's level though? He had the hot start when he got there, but then he seemed to disappear for a bit. MidCardona. -_- He does have the GCW World Title. In all honesty, I think someone like Moose works. Maybe Cass. Hopefully not Sami Callihan - never was able to get into his character.

I usually use it to contrast against my World title - if one has a lot of changes, the other is very stable. If one focuses on the popular workers (again, varies by promotion type), then the other is to showcase the horses of the company.

<p>All things being equal, are ratings better for an angle where the title changes hands (MITB cash in) or a 1 v 1 where a third participant is a late addition?</p><p> </p><p> Guess it would be Edge cashing in on Cena at New Years Revolution or Reigns vs Lesnar with Seth cashing in late in the match.</p>

I have a stable of Cip Conduit, Dominic DeGraff, and Brady Prince (The Agency - low level thugs/bullies). Unfortunately, Conduit suffered a minor injury (one of those that lasts 2 months though), and Brady Prince just doesn't connect with fans. As such, Conduit/DeGraff are relegated to dark matches, and Brady Prince is just floundering. Any solutions? Not against the solution being getting rid of Prince, as he is up in age anyway. But I would like a new leader if that's the case. Anyone who is unemployed and would fit the bill of leader of the group would be welcome. If Conduit or DeGraff takes over would just need a new partner for the team. (No positive or negative chemistry so not against a new pairing).

Brian Myers also just got an Impact Title match at their next big event. Not exactly stiff competition.

I would immediately set my sights on them to crush them.

What events were you looking for? Not sure I've seen those belts, but some people have posted generic belts that could be helpful in a pinch.

I would say Primus - even if he doesn't win the Final, it puts everyone on notice. Makes for a nice "storyline" that he didn't get it done then...but now watch out! Well having a picture changes things. I would say Doc. Especially because he has already put Young man over several times, it would be a good way to bump him up again.

Very cool. I love the simplicity of the logos. Gives it a very clean look.

It does appear to be common in indie feds in real life because they lack a regular schedule so they need show-contained storylines. But you can string those together to a bigger storyline - guy keeps getting attacked mid promo? Someone will find out they are messing with the wrong guy, as he attacks THEM mid promo on show 6 or 7 (could be a heel turn, especially if the person he attacks wasn't out to interrupt him). And there are only so many storylines out there, but it's the execution of them that is different. And nothing wrong with recycling stories - WWE does it all the time!

Through my first couple of tours I've found the opposite. If I don't make a concerted effort, my big names would never lose. Then again, I have a bottom heavy roster, so some of those are getting over just by working matches. Hopefully after a few more tours we'll have some organic backstory/matchups.
