It's not canon. I just wanted to do something similar to Dragon Gate USA back on 2010, and made a thread to discuss a potential roster. http://greydogsoftware.com/forum/showthread.php?t=510592 -
The Road to Glory Challenge
1234 replied to Bad Collin's topic in Total Extreme Wrestling 2016 General Discussions
Once I finish my current run I might start again and see how the patches have affected low level companies, but in my attempts prior to my current game running multiple shows a month seemed to be the only way for the starting company to survive. I am curious if it is possible to book anywhere near 'realistically', 1 or 2 shows a month, 4 or so matches per card using different workers in each. If anyone is going along these lines I am curious to hear how it is going. Running many shows a week/month is definitely overpowered, but I can't bring myself to book a 4 man show. I couldn't ever imagine a real company doing it and being even halfway successful with it. But on how overpowered running loads of shows can be: http://i.imgur.com/vlKuU6K.png?1 Hitoshi Hori (performing under a mask as Dragon Takashi) : SHOOT - Regional Game date: January 1998 (1 year in) Best UC Match so far: vs. Human Arsenal (December 1997) - A (90) Year 1 Roll: 34. “Healing Hands” Over the holiday season you book yourself in for several massages and physio appointments. +7.5 to all Physical Condition. Could have done with a top-row stat boost, but after a long year I won't complain at being able to get my physicals back to near perfect. -

Good luck. And just since we are on the topic, running a ton of shows is the way to go for this challenge in my opinion. You might run yourself into a load of debt initially, but once your shows begin being profitable it is very easy to dig yourself out of the hole as long as you don't go overboard on increasing production. In addition the growth your character will see by being in so many matches/angles can make for insane skill growth. Running 3 shows a week I dug myself out of debt by September, however I had the favourable sponsorship patch for most of it. On the other hand I also had a 12-16 person roster and was using every wrestler on every show. Could probably get out of debt earlier if you use talent more efficiently. Currently running 6 shows a week to speed up my rise to cult. Got one brand working my home region 3 times a week, and a second brand working a second region. (CV 97 mod) Rip Chord was involved in a scandal and released by HGC so I am hoping I can get to cult and lock him down before any other company is interested in him again. -

Congrats Soxfan, any chance of a look at your characters stats? -

Having ran through the first 7 months of my game on the sponsorship favourable 1.05 patch, I caught up to the newest patch today. Having run myself into big debt in the first six months, and only starting to be profitable in month seven, I was worried the sponsorship drop would send me back to making a loss. However despite my sponsorship decreasing over 50%, I am in love with the new patch's reduced show costs which will are making my shows turn bigger profits now. So now its my time to dig myself out of my mountainous debt, accumulated by running far too many shows, by running another ton of shows. Don't know how the patch affects the early game struggles, but it seems like a good patch for small companies. Edit: Also running a ton of shows is quickly turning my character, and most of my young roster, into some of the youngest veterans in the world. -

http://i.imgur.com/MF8Ozgh.png Just had this happen in the second month of my save. Fortunately I created a backup at the end of the first month, but losing quite a few shows progress since I am running loads of shows to raise my sponsorship money. Human Arsenal is my Champion as well. -

This is an event that I doubt anyone in Japan will even see. ROH may be the #3 promotion in America, but that means next to nothing these days. Even with declining attendance, Wrestling Dontaku still drew more than double ROH's average.

New Japan obviously want exposure in the States (They have done their own shows in the past, and now working with ROH), and I felt this could be a good opportunity to put on two huge cards to get atleast the internet talking.</p><p> </p><p> Even give us that one match that could be a new Joe/Kobashi and the excitement would be off the charts. The tickets sold out before any matches were announced, but the anticipation has cooled off completely following the announcements (and even more now with Elgin/Styles instead of Okada).</p><p> </p><p> While I feel most ROH fans are probably already familiar with New Japan, I still felt they could have converted some fans across with bigger matches, but I can't see Bennett/Tanahashi convincing anyone to check out New Japan shows.</p><p> </p><p> Its just too much New Japan protecting their guys. Its not just having big stars in matches they will (should) win, but them being soft matches. Bennett/Tanahashi and Okada/Alexander wont be classics, and seem like rest matches for those guys. And Liger, although legendary, should not be in the ROH title match. Fair enough if they didn't want Tanahashi/Nakamura losing to Cole, but someone like Naito/Goto/Suzuki couldn't do it?</p>

<p>It really seems NJ don't see these shows as that big a deal. Tanahashi and now Okada in smaller matches, which I don't expect to be classics. Liger and Kushida challenging for the ROH titles instead of bigger names. Seems Nakamura is the only NJ big name that may be putting on a big match against Steen (or Cole).</p><p> </p><p> And how does Roderick Strong not get a match against someone from NJPW?</p><p> </p><p> Bizarre booking.</p>

<p>New York card a lot more like what I was hoping for, however wish New Japan were willing to have a top guy lose (Unless they really shock me). Putting Liger and Kushida in the ROH title matches is a bit disappointing, I guess they didn't want Nakamura or Tanahashi to lose to Cole (or Steen if he were champion, but I doubt he will win in Toronto since Cole/Liger & Steen/Nakamura seems better than Steen/Liger & Cole/Nakamura).</p><p> </p><p> Steen could beat Nakamura, but I don't see it, and Bennett obviously wont beat Tanahashi. Would be cool if either IWGP title changed hands, but Okada is damn near untouchable, and the Briscoes would probably already be in New Japan if they were ever going to be.</p>
-
Anyone else disappointed in the card so far for Global Wars? Guessing they are saving inter-promotional matches for the second show, but putting New Japan's big guns in tag matches is very disappointing. Cole/Steen and the 3-way tag should be good, but outside that the show is weak for what it could have been.
