  1. <p>I read that Bray Wyatt will in fact play Sister Abigail but maybe just in a different attire.</p><p> </p><p> <a href="http://rajah.com/node/58205" rel="external nofollow">http://rajah.com/node/58205</a></p>
  2. Is there a way I can export parts of the database (rosters, worker stats etc) to an Excel file?
  3. <p>I'm just getting into the ThunderVerse. So far, it seems pretty amazing. I've not even started a game yet. Instead, I'm spending time reading over all of the company bios, rosters, worker bios, title histories etc. The amount of detail is just absolutely staggering.</p><p> </p><p> One question - is there any where I can see an upto date history of the ThunderVerse?</p>

  5. Though I don't think they'll go that route, I think an invasion angle could work... I haven't thought about it too much but there's are valued names who have TNA history that could make it work. First, there's those who are contracted to WWE who could "jump ship" (it would need explaining why they were doing so, and would have to be logical) I'm thinking Styles, Joe, Roode & Aries. Then you could have the older guys who have worked for both WWE & TNA, so Jeff & Matt Hardy, Team 3D, Lashley. And then there are the younger guys who have associations with both; Cody Rhodes, Damien Sandow, Drew Galloway, Gallows etc. Kurt Angle and Sting could also play a part. As I say, it's highly unlikely they'd do it, but if they wanted to and were creative enough, I think they could pull it off.
  6. There is absolutely zero consistency with the titles across both brands and I for one find it more difficult to buy into the concept of a brand split because of it. I really dislike the concept of the Universal Title. For me, it just devalues the WWE World Title. If you are considered the best in the Universe, then by default, you're better than the World champ. I don't know what they could do to make it different, but as of right now, I'm not a fan. Are they going to rename the Tag Team & Women's Titles on RAW to the RAW Tag Team Titles and the RAW Women's Title? If not, then they should, because then it makes more sense. Will SmackDown also introduce their own Cruiserweight Title further down the line? Total fantasy booking here but they should've made it seem like the company was splitting. Shane McMahon should've brought WCW back from the dead and replaced SmackDown with Nitro. WCW would've got the WCW titles back, and could've re-used their PPV's. They could make a big deal out of people "jumping ship" just like what used to happen in the 90's during the Monday Night Wars. A few realistically conceivable things they could have done to legitimise a WCW return. Sting as GM instead of Daniel Bryan. Have workers with WCW pasts help establish the WCW brand; Booker T (in a non-wrestling capacity, of course) Chris Jericho, Rey Mysterio, Big Show, Goldberg, Ric Flair. Hell, they might've even tried to persuade Eric Bischoff to come back and do something. Sure, the likes of Jericho, Mysterio & Show generally made their name in WWE, but the ties are there, and with a bit of creativity, you can make anything work. WCW was renowned for great Cruiserweight action, so that'd be focused on. Chavo Guerrero could come back for a run; he can still go, right? He and Mysterio have enough name value to help create some stars. I hope the brand split can win me over, I really do, but for now, I think I'll fire up TEW and play out my vision of how it should've been done.
  7. <p>I'm really enjoying No Man's Sky. </p><p> </p><p> I've put about 10 hours into it so far and I'm not bored by it in the slightest. The story is nothing (almost literally, nothing) to write home about (at least not yet) but I've had a couple of pretty memorable experiences.</p><p> </p><p> The first was not long after I'd repaired my ship. I took off and headed to a new planet. I landed on top of a big rock (not intentioanlly) on a toxic planet and when I got out of my ship, I had to jump and fire up my jetpack for a split second before hitting the ground so not to loose health. I quickly discovered the planet was toxic with not much in the way of life or resources so I decided to jetpack back upto my ship, When I tried to initialized by thrusters to take off, they didn't have enough energy so I was forced to go hunting for Plutonium (or some other energy source) on the seemingly resource-empty planet.</p><p> </p><p> So I set off, my Exosuit taking damage from the toxic rain. Luckily, I found a cave to shield me and in the cave I stumbled across a huge mushroom like plant that had weird eyes all over its stalk. I examined it, looking at it in amazement, and then set off further into the cave. </p><p> </p><p> There was no Plutonium, but up ahead, I saw something which, after a 2 minute walk in the toxic rain, turned out to a deserted space station. It was small but there was some cargo which hadn't been retrieved from a drop that was made, whenever it was made. And the cargo contained Plutonium. Rejoice. </p><p> </p><p> Problem now was that I was quite far away from my ship and my Exosuit was in a bad way and I was too scared to charge it using Plutonium in case I didn't have enough left for my ship.</p><p> </p><p> I managed to get back to the cave and slowly and waited until my Exosuit made itself a bit better. When I thought it was strong enough, I made a run for it back to my ship, charged my thrusters with the Plutonium I found and got the hell out of there.</p><p> </p><p> I absolutely loved it. I felt so relieved when I finally got off of that awful, awful planet.</p><p> </p><p> A few more hours into the game, I found the "wreckage" of a much better and much bigger space craft. It needed repairing, but the planet I was on wasn't too harsh which meant I could go off looking for stuff without too much worry. I was happily mining resources and crafting stuff next to my new ship when I heard some growls or snarls. I turned around there were 4 or 5 of these spikey goatdog things on a hill above me. They didn't seem to be coming towards me but the red claw above them signified they were hostile.</p><p> </p><p> Suddenly, they decided to set upon me, and I panicked, firing my Mining Canon at them which didn't do a damn thing. I was close enough to my ship that I could get in it, so I did. They didn't move, and sort of circled the ship. I wasn't confident that I could take them on as I hadn't really had to engage in any combat with neither best nor sentinel. I checked my inventory and just so happened to have the stuff I needed to turn my Mining Canon into a Boltcaster. I did just that, got out, and did battle.</p><p> </p><p> I felt pretty bad because I'd decided that I didn't want to kill anything that I came across, and would instead just scare them away by firing close to them (as I'd seen others do in various streams) but it wasn't working with these motherlickers, and I had no choice but to kill them.</p><p> </p><p> So yeah, I've been loving it, and can't wait to fire it up tonight. The planets I've came across have been varied enough for me to not get annoyed with repetitiveness and such things. </p><p> </p><p> It's not perfect, and there are little things that irk me, most notably, the space stations. They're just too samey and you only ever see one alien on them. You see crafts coming and going but nobody ever gets out of them. I'd like to see them get out of there ship and go into the station to do their trading. And just generally, it would be nice to see some actual alien races visiting planets, mining resources themselves, etc. Upon seeing them, you could either try and talk to them, or, just blast the holy hell out of them and take their stuff.</p><p> </p><p> But I can see past this stuff. What we have is interpretation of something we know nothing about. Maybe this is what it's actually like? Maybe these alien lifeforms don't need to leave their ships at space stations because they're technology is more advanced. Maybe there is monopoly and there is a huge alien corporation building all of the stations for every star system? Maybe the stations are so well designed they just operate on their own and only require one alien to be there just in case they need to manually override the operation? </p><p> </p><p> I don't know, and I don't care right now. I'm having a blast with the game and I think with every update they do, it will get better and better.</p>
  8. <p>I had a couple of requests if anyone can help out. All PNGs (if possible) so I can put them on any background:</p><p> </p><p> - <strong>Daniel Bryan</strong> in a suit.</p><p> </p><p> - <strong>Braun Strowman</strong> with his new new hair.</p><p> </p><p> - Recent-ish <strong>Dolph Ziggler</strong> but looking heelish.</p><p> </p><p> - And finally (this may be trickier) a <strong>Bo Dallas</strong> picture with him having more of a Wyatt Family look. I don't know how this would be done. I want to repackage him as Bo Wyatt and have him running with Bray but in all of his pictures he looks too happy/goofy.</p>
  9. I noticed that there were no great renders of Tommy Cornell Jr. I found this render of Cornell Sr which I think could work really well. Would there be a way to remove the hand? http://i1230.photobucket.com/albums/ee489/asaemon/TEW%20Alts/Tommy%20Cornell.jpg
  10. <p><span>http://i1354.photobucket.com/albums/q691/SuperFurryTom/Kid%20Britian_zpso1j0ssay.jpg</span></p><p> </p><p> Can anyone think of a good name for this masked worked I'll be debuting in 21CW soon? I want something that references the Union Jack / United Kingdom / Great Britain.</p>
  11. <p>Long post incoming...</p><p> </p><p> - Playing as 21CW, just held tjhe first PPV which was headlined by Adam Matravers challenging Eddie Cornell for the World Title. In the weeks leading upto the match, Tommy Cornell had been getting involved. Jeff Nova announced that at Steel Cage Challenge, should Tommy somehow manage to get involved in the Cage Match between Matravers and Eddie, he'd be fired.</p><p> </p><p> In a backstage segment on the week before the PPV, Tommy told Eddie that he had an "insurance policy" which led to speculation over who it might be.</p><p> </p><p> At the PPV, Matravers looked set to escape the cage and win when Beast Bantom came out. Matravers seen Bantom below and dived off the top of the cage, hoping to win the match and take out Bantom in the process. Unluckily for him, Bantom caught him, meaning his feed didn't touch the floor. Banton slammed Matravers into the cage several times but kept hold of him all the long, allowing Eddie to recover and escape the cage through the door.</p><p> </p><p> - My other top feud was Dark Angel & Johnathan Faust. Faust has recruited Grave Digger & Nightmare as his muscle and leading upto the PPV, they destroyed Dark Angel more than once. Faust also kidnapped Harry Wilson. The stipulation for the match was that if Dark Angel wins, Faust must free Wilson, but if Faust wins, Dark Angel must join him. Dark Angel picks up the win.</p><p> </p><p> How do these stories impact things post-PPV? Let me talk about that...</p><p> </p><p> - The Cornell's open the next show, celebrating and gloating when they are interrupted by Kathleen Lee, Viktor Beskov & Marat Khoklov. Lee parted ways with Hot Stuff after they lost their No1. contenders to the tag titles match at the PPV. Also at the PPV, Lee announced Viktor Beskov & Marat Khoklov as her new clients. Marat had been randomly attacking Beskov's Yuri Iliakov in the weeks running upto the PPV. When Iliakov lost the match for The Red Devils against The Pride, Marat attacked again only this time, Beskov joined in.</p><p> </p><p> Anyway, The Russian Mafia declared war on 21CW and said they will start by taking Eddie Cornell's World Title. This ends up leading to a match between Tommy Cornell & Viktor Beskov. Later in the night, The Ivanoff's attack Eddie Cornell backstage. Tommy Cornell beats Viktor Beskov but is attacked by Marat Khoklov.</p><p> </p><p> The following week, The Cornell's take on The Ivanoff's, defeating them. A 4-on-2 attack follows the match with Beast Bantom running off The Russian Mafia and saving The Cornell's.</p><p> </p><p> My aim with this story is to get Viktor Beskov & Marat Khoklov over. Viktor will face Eddie Cornell at the PPV while Marat will square off against Tommy. As you can imagine, I turned Eddie & Tommy face.</p><p> </p><p> - As for Dark Angel & Faust, they're still at it. Faust released Harry Wilson, but, during a match between Angel & Wilson facing Nightmare & Grave Digger, Wilson turned heel and returned to Faust. Dark Angel & Wilson lost the match and post-match, Faust, Nightmare, Grave Digger & Wilson attacked Dark Angel. Luckily, Adam Matravers & Kevin Jones were on hand and ran-off Faust and his minions. The idea being that Jones & Matravers are 21CW through and through, as is Dark Angel.</p><p> </p><p> The following week, Faust points out that Wilson "saw the light" and returned to him under his own free will. Dark Angel cuts a promo on Wilson's betrayal of him. Adam Matravers defeats Harry Wilson only to be attacked by The Church of Faust. Kevin Jones hits the ring, trying to make the save, but it's not enough. Finally, the lights go down and when they come back on, Dark Angel is in the ring and the faces clean house! </p><p> </p><p> My aim with this story is to keep Jones & Matravers busy in a story that should still allow me to churn out good grades while also getting Grave Digger & Nightmare over.</p><p> </p><p> While all this is going on, Jeff Nova is worried about either The Russian Mafia or The Church of Faust taking over his company should The Cornell's fail against The Russian Mafia, and Dark Angel, Matravers & Jones fall to The Church of Faust. This allows me use Nova's overness to improve the ratings of both stories. Eventually, I may have Jonathan Faust & Kathleen Lee merge The Russian Mafia & The Church of Faust, but we'll see.</p><p> </p><p> Overall, I'm having a blast with this game so far. Long may it continue.</p>

  13. Name: Axe Tucker Age: 27 (8 Year Pro) Gender: Male Size: Heavyweight Nationality: British Real Life Comparison: Bray Wyatt / Mick Foley Style: Brawler Finisher: Middle Rope Piledriver Company: New Blood Pro Wrestling (NBPW) Bio: Tom Bishop is a burly British brawler who relocated to the US at the age of 17 to try and make it in the wrestling business. He's surprisingly agile for a man of his size and stature and is most known for his crazy character, Axe Tucker. Axe Tucker's Backstory: While travelling with his explorer parents as a new born baby, Axe Tucker's parents were murdered by The Kayan Tribe. Only months old, Tucker was left to fend for himself. Facing certain death due to the inability to care for himself, Tucker was discovered by a family of orangutan's who raised him as if one of their own. It wasn't until 12 years later that a wild and feral Tucker was discovered by a group of exporers. After a 4 day hunt to try and capture Tucker and take him home, the explorers finally succeeded in symbolizing him using a tranquilizer powerful enough to knock out a rhino. Once back in the real world, Tucker was cared for in a mental health hospital and over the course of 5 years was nursed back to a state of sanity and was evaluated regularly until Dr's were happy for him to return to society. Tucker was then put through an intensive education course where he demonstrated an inexplicable level of intelligence considering his primal upbringing. He went onto to study at the University of Iowa where he developed a passion for wrestling and excelled. Once leaving University, he worked for various small promotions throughout the US, gaining a name for himself and cementing his reputation. Tucker has a pet parrot called Gruff who he says brings him messages from his Father from ""the other side"". It's also said that the shirt / robe he comes to the ring in was his late Mother's and that it's what she was dressed in when murdered by The Kayan Tribe. He also has an unhealthy obsession with hats. Outside of wrestling, Tucker has ambitions of one day returning to Borneo Rainforest to kill the tribe that killed his parents and avenge their deaths.
  14. Anyone fancy taking a stab at 21CW's Kevin Jones? Or does a good re-render already exist?
  15. I see this got bumped off the page. Anybody got any thoughts / ideas about this?
  16. There's something very, very right about Big Smack Scott being PSW Champion.
  17. Playing as 21CW and thinking about doing an invasion angle which would see MoSC try to takeover 21CW. I'd start by bringing in The Highland Warrior & Jeffrey McPeterson. Warrior would probably come in as an Authority Figure playing on his friendship with Jeff Nova. He would have some conflict with The Cockney Rebels, but it would never get physical. The Cockney Rebels would then start randomly attacking wrestlers. After they attack Men of Steel, they cut a promo about MoSC. Of course, Highland Warrior tells them this is 21CW and MoSC is history. As the story plays out, more former MoSC wrestlers would join (I have a list of them somewhere) Eventually, Jeffrey McPeterson would come in and fall victim to the MoSC revolution before finally, The Highland Warrior himself takes a savage beatdown. Having The McPeterson's get beatdown, along with them pledging their alegiance to 21CW, would hopefully convince the fans that they're not behind the MoSC invasion. The McPeterson's would go away for a few weeks, selling their injuries. Jeff Nova, growing desparate, would turn to Tommy & Eddie Cornell. They would be hesitant at first, but, during a big TV match, MoSC launch another attack which eventually brings out The Cornell's to save the day! I'm hoping that I can use the overness of Tommy & Eddie to get The McPeterson's more over. Jeffrey McPeterson would return and be aligned with Tommy & Eddie. The Highland Warrior would be in angles a lot also but be "Off Screen" to sell his injuries. This, coupled with spamming Menace angles via Danny Patterson & Nightmare should allow me to pull decent grades and get MoSC workers over. I can add an element of "will he, won't he" to the story using DJ Reason & Kevin Jones; 2 pretty popular babyface with MoSC ties. Not sure if they'd be added yet. Then, at a big a PPV in a 4 vs 4 elimination match which would see Jeff Nova lead the team of The Cornell's & Jeffrey McPeterson vs the 4 most popular workers from MoSC. Team 21CW would be down to Tommy Cornell & Jeffrey McPeterson vs Danny Patterson and someone else when The Highland Warrior make a big return, seemingly to takeout MoSC. He tosses a chair to Jeffrey who considers hitting Danny Patterson but instead he turns on Cornell, leading to Team MoSC getting the win, and The McPeterson's revealing themselves as the masterminds all the long. Any thoughts or ideas? My biggest concern is getting MoSC workers over enough not to stink up the ratings.
  18. In the early days of a 21CW but I'm really enjoying it. I'm rolling with the default storylines; they seem pretty cool. A couple of points to mention on the 2 main storylines. I've added Beast Bantom into the Cornell Family/Matravers/Jones feud. On the first TV show, Bantom squashed Mark Adonis and after the match, Tommy Cornell inexplicably came out to applaud him. Bantom continued his beatdown of Adonis as an impressed Cornell looked on. Opening the same show, Jeff Nova announced that Eddie Cornell would defend the title against Adam Matravers at the first PPV. Later in the show, Beast Bantom attacked Adam Matravers backstage. On the following show, the Cornell's welcomed Bantom to the family and he's acting as their muscle. Jonathan Faust has turned on Stevie Stoat and aligned himself with the powerhouse tandem of Nightmare & Doomsday with the group being called The Church of Faust. Nightmare attacked Dark Angel after the Main Event of the first TV show (Eddie Cornell vs Dark Angel) The following week during Harry Wilson vs Johnathan Faust, Nightmare attacked Wilson. Dark Angel tried to even the numbers but Doomsday came out to make it on 3-on-2. After they beatdown Angel & Wilson, Faust announced the formation of The Church of Faust.
  19. About Wyatt... "Dave Meltzer of WrestlingObserver.com reported on Sunday night that it turns out Bray is working with a back injury right now. Meltzer says Bray's back is in really bad shape, so WWE made the decision to stop him from taking bumps for the time being. This adds to the list of injuries Bray has sustained since his NXT days, including a pectoral injury that required surgery and several nagging injuries." Maybe they're worried that they'll give him a main event run, only to go down injured?
  20. Maybe in the build-up, Shane finds a loophole where he can choose someone to fight on his behalf, and that someone is Sting.
  21. I'm totally hyped for the Shane O'Mac / 'Taker match. I absolutely marked out when I heard "Here Comes The Money" play and it was awesome to see Shane back in the WWE. Will it be a wrestling classic? Hell no, but, I'm sure it will be a hugely entertaining brawl. Sure, Shane is 46 and hasn't wrestled for quite a while but I'm sure he'll train hard to get in-shape. It's also one of the matches with the most intrigue for me. Will Shane pick up the win and takeover RAW, putting an end to The Authority? If so, he must surely do it with some help? There's no way he can go over clean. People have talked up a Sting interference due to the links to WCW. That could be cool, setting up a 'Taker vs Sting retirement match at WM33, but, they'd need to tell the story well. A potential sticking point is the fact that when Shane "took over" WCW, Sting wasn't involved at all. Shane O'Mac's return has really brought back my interest in 'Mania, as did the Triple H beatdown on Reigns. If we also get Lesnar vs Ambrose and Styles vs Owens as well as a multi-man Ladder Match for the US Title then I think it'll be a pretty sweet PPV.
  22. Shawn Michaels? There were rumours Vince tried to get him for the Royal Rumble, maybe he made him a bigger offer for 'Mania? I've also heard rumblings of Goldberg. Other than that, maybe Steve Austin? The Rock? I can't see it being Kurt Angle.
  23. They might use this as a catalyst to start a feud between Sting and someone else for the exact reasons you're stating ("You don't deserve a title shot etc") That person, whoever it might be, could even cost Sting the match.
