  1. Not at all. My plans if I do a deep save is to set up a Unit Disbands match come June. I think I would nuke NEO-Prime, then have NEO-X rename and start their own image.
  2. Similar thought patterns as I mentioned. I gave Doc the January challenge as the off screen committee rewards his recent performances. Wolf is cool with it and supports Doc. Syndicate is all business after all and an all Syndicate Total Mayhem main event sounds good to Wolf. Andrews beats him. Then Freddy gets his first World title challenge ever (that's how I hyped it). Same reason. I had Freddy do a one month feud with Fonz before challenging. Andrews retains, Syndicate attacks post match. Sets up Battleground where Syndicate beats Team Andrews (him, Human Arsenal to play off the OG Syndicate ties and Devine Fortune, who's been feuding with the Syndicate. I did a make up seg in January between Andrews and Fortune where the former apologises for turning on Chance years ago.) Andrews personally wants to out over Killer Shark so Andrews will somehow drop a fall to KS in April and that results in his title shot at the PPV. Andrews wins, then finally Wolf at Total Mayhem, where Andrews will win, then lose to Chord the following month. I plan on giving Chord two defenses (old nemesis Mighty Mo and then probably One Man Army or Edd ) before dropping it back to Andrews by the end of the year.
  3. It's interesting that so far a lot of us seem to be booking the main event scene pretty similarly. Andrews beating Wolf and then eventually have Chord beat Andrews down the road. I saw someone use the King of Kings win as a guarantee main event for Total Mayhem, which I've done too because I thought in the description that's what happened. It's interesting to see we're generally thinking the same far as booking this.
  4. I've had Taylor feud with Edd Stone to establish Stone as someone on Taylor's level (second tier guy.) Bach I have plans for. Big plans. Bach is in decline but he's still pretty good in ring. Both guys have the same average of ratings in their matches (both have had six matches, Taylor's average is 67, Bach is 68). Like I said, I want to bid for some guys coming up for other companies and I'm challenging myself not to bloat the roster like I normally do. Worst case scenario is if they both get poached, that's for certain.
  5. There's where I'm at with Taylor. His deal is up to renegotiate a week before Bach. I like him. Could use him in a lot of different ways. But I'm picking Bach over him. So I'll see if I'm able to keep him and if not, try to bait USPW or SWF to sign him to a bad deal.

  7. Underrated story; Sensational Dragon being a positive influence backstage. Never thought I would see the day.
  8. With the retail now coming out in two weeks, I'm looking at my diary and who's contracts expire. It's going to be interesting. Benson was already about to expire. Gave him a deal and there's no comp. Have always liked him. Solid mid-carder. Older but I'm willing to keep him. Hammond is up to re- negotiate later in the month. I've used him as the second in command for the Syndicate. He got the January PPV title match and his popularity has jumped from 63 to 67. Has good in ring and entertainment skills. I want to keep him but I expect a fight to keep him. Gauge come up in 2 months and while he's at a 51 in pop, UPSW scooped up Andrew Lee from 21CW after I gave him an inquiry offer just to see if I could get him and his pop is at 32. So I'm expecting UPSW and SWF to bid for him. Peak come up a week later and I want to keep him to job to Mo at Total Mayhem. The big one is Bach. I really like Taylor. Always have. But I'm kinda willing to let him go if it means keeping Bach. I have 14 mil and have made 2 mil each month so by the time I go to re-negotiate, I might have 28 mil. But Rhodes is kinda cheap and I want to bid for people too without creating a big roster. Bach is absolutely someone I'm willing to go all in for. Same with Gauge. You don't see it on the picture but Freddy comes up 4 months after Bach and he's another I want to keep by any means. If anything, this reminds me of 2016 where when you played TCW, you had to expect and accept the fact that your top guys had a good chance of getting poached. So deciding on the guys you're willing to do whatever to keep and who you're willing to let go is a must.
  9. Yeah. In fairness he did allow me to bid a little higher for Claire Winters, which gives me hope for when I place a bid for either Alicia Strong or Lauren Easter, he'll let me add some perks.
  10. That has been a pain so far. I wanted to get John Greed, someone who I always covet and generally think is one of the most underrated workers in the game, and I couldn't because he wouldn't let me vid higher. I convinced Buddy Garner to come out of retirement so he could face Wolf and USPW got him because he prevented me from bidding higher. It's a challenge for sure and it makes me weary about what'll happen when some of my top guys' contracts are up.
  11. Thanks! The answer is very, very tough. I intentionally didn't feature the women the first month of my save. Funny enough, the International title being gone gave me the motivation to do a women's division as I've never done one in a TCW save. Anyways I spent the first month just signing girls. I'm trying not to hoard the obvious wrestlers with great SQ (for both the men and women). It's tempting considering that any girl with decent pop is in UPSW so perhaps it does warrant doing that. In fairness, 7 of the 11 girls on the main roster have SQ over 70 as I just checked lol. Besides the point, instead of debuting them right away, I had an announcement on the first PPV that TW was starting a women's division. From there, I've been rolling them out slowly. I brought back Saturday Night Showcase and I've had the girls do interviews individually: giving all of them some shine. However, for two of them, I put them in respective units. Higa in the Syndicate and Becca Barton in Sinner's Society. Higa is the prized international talent Wolf hyped up. I have her as the "heir" of Syndicate. I just include her in every segment the Syndicate are in and always have her rated on SQ. This is designed to suggest she isn't like Chris Flynn, the muscle, or the Elite. She's something special and the SQ is strictly about someone's aura. Within the first two months, she's gone from 2 to 19 in pop; which her pop going from 6 at the beginning of February to 21 in a span of four weeks. With Becca, I've used her as the third mouthpiece for Sinner Society. Eddie's the frantic, sadistic one. Floyd's the calm, amoral, fast talker. Becca is just pure emotion. Takes no prisoners, mouthy. In the SS segs, I have her rated on entertainment because she's always talking. Hasn't wrestled yet but her pop has gone from 10 (14 in Mid South thanks to her QAW run) to 18 (25 in Mid South.) So it's hard and you're definitely going to get penalties because they all start off as unimportant popularity wise. It's definitely something you're going to have to eat but know that eventually, if you stick with it, it'll probably pay off. I did mention to steal Claire Winters from CWA right before my two months ended. Gave her 5 years, $13,000 per month; 20% bonus after each event, 10% merch. That's probably the only girl I'll go after who's signed to avoid bloating my roster. The exception is Alicia Strong, who so happens to have her contract expire next month so when I get the full retail version, I'll be able to place a bid for her in a week. Lauren Easter also expires at the exact time too.
  12. Even someone like Marina Del Ray, who I signed to manage Devine Fortune. She's gone from 2 to 21 in pop over two months.
  13. I put Higa in the Syndicate. I just have her in segs with Wolf and rate her on SQ until she becomes fluent. Went from 2 to 19 in pop in a span of two months,

  15. This is a good thread. I'm playing my TCW save and I started a women's division. There's no one available with good starting pop. So I signed some girls and basically decided I would push a few girls knowing it'll get a low rating. It's not punting but more of just eating the penalties now in hopes that it'll pay off come end of the year. So far I've seen it work in some ways. I put Becca Barton in Sinner's Society. Hasn't wrestled a match yet. The first two months, I've made her the third mouthpiece for SS behind Floyd and Peak. I always make sure she's speaking during their segs. Within two months, she's gone from 10 to 18 popularity with a 25 in Mid South. Doesn't seem like much but jumping up 8 is pretty good. It'll take a lot of patience but I think being persistent and sticking with it will help.

  19. Yeah I got hit a few times too. Not sure how much but any match with a main eventer will get you knocked if it's under twenty minutes. Anyways more expanded thoughts on my first post now being home. Having UEW and CILL take your young lions for excursions is great. UEW has an added bonus of allowing you to send people down there for development. I also found that OLLIE will take your young lions too and they have a good relationship with CILL so that's three places that I can send people too. Other than Senmatsu-gun, I honestly don't love the units. Not a fan of NEO being split into two units as it comes off as nWo Black and White/Wolfpac (the logos for both lean that way.) Slaughterhouse is meh but I do like the idea of them being a more ground and pound esue unit so I signed Frankie Perez, Tsuenyo from EXODUS and stuck Sugiyama in there. Already talked about Golden Army and I'm unsure if this is a destiny roll or not but just about all of them have expiring contracts from a year and a half to two years. So I'm kinda stuck with them. Junior division is stacked. Sensational Dragon/Elemental III/Emerald Angel/Masuko is a hell of a top four with Heliakon/MYSTIC Dragon/Crimson Ghost/Munkata underneath. On top of that, you have great depth with Kokan, Konda, VENOM, Shiomi, Golden Scorpion AND prospects you can try to push like Ko Minamoto and Hiraki (at 33, if you're going to push him, you gotta do it now.) Embarrassment of riches and another reason why I'll try to convince Dragon to go to the heavyweight division. Like I mentioned, I have a tendency to sign a lot of people and so I'm curious to see who people sign first. My first signings were; Aldous Blackfrair Amazing Fire Fly Frankie Perez JOJI Remmy Skye Stunner Sayuki And the heavyweights; Frantic Ali Fujio Narahashi Kerry Wayne Logan Wolfsbaine
  20. Booked the first month in. I signed ten more people, which puts my roster at 62. I tend to get a bit bloated, even when I don't want to. I immediately put the Word title on Senmatsu. I like Horri, but I do like the idea of Senmatsu-gun and it's by far my favorite unit in the company. I added The Architect from MAW, Blackfrair from IPW, and gave Ko a mask and now he's VIRGIL. The heavyweight scene is interesting. There's no clear cut stars underneath. Shimakage, Taro, Takemura, Toshitara, Sakai, Gensai are all solid but not great. Would put Keith above them. Not sure what to do with the Golden Army long term. For now I'm doing Ino-Gakusha and Keith-Takayuki 2000 for the Feb PPV. Plan is to do Senmatsu-Ino for Fire Dream. I put Toshusai and Nakasawa together as a team and they took the Tag titles. I'll let them run with it for a while. In my head, I want to give the title to Masuno by end of the year given that he's never won it and I've always liked him. Him getting a run can buy me some time to elevate Keith. One thing I always do in my BHOWTG saves is I'll go in the editor and put Sensational Dragon's max weight to middle and then ask him to bulk up. He's so good and has done everything in the junior division and so moving him up is something I do. At 35, in his prime and with the junior division stacked, I'll probably do the same and hope he wants to move up.
  21. Was very pleasantly surprised at what's happening with BHOTWG this time around. Lot of changes. Some big additions, both from an in ring standpoint and out. Without a doubt this will be my first save.
