I found this very confusing. I didn't get any visibly tiring notes either, as it was a spectacle, and therefore had slow build. Any explanations?</div></blockquote><p> </p><p> Bad selling and and inexperienced commentary team may be enough to tank the match, yes. Were there other penalties? Was the crowd pumped?</p>

How do I know which workers are good for certain types of match aims, like for example, story telling?

Looks like Big Show is calling it a day after WM.

At first I also thought it was predictable, but I'm less sure now. Look at Wyatt vs Orton: to keep Wyatt's gimmick alive, he basically has to win. The gimmick is still popular so they can't just drop him to Orton, who is already monumentally over. Neville vs Aries is another thing. Maybe I'm not paying much attention, but Neville should keep his title a little longer maybe?
I really don't see Miz & Maryse winning this. Hopefully it'll be over quick and we don't get Cena proposing to Nikki to make it more corny.
They never really cared about Wyatt's gimmick being established, why start now? And I think they're gonna push Randy hard now, due to Cena being with one foot out of the door eventually. I wouldn't be surprised if they hotshot the title to Aries, as they have done a lot lately, with some of their lower and mid tier titles. And i doubt the Miz wins. Even so, in a plethora of matches, there is only 1 or 2 that cause serious doubts. Out of the blue, the only match that is really uncertain right now is the Raw women's one. Sure, there are a couple more that constitute doubt and can be a surprise, but not serious doubt, at least right now.
I'm in for the ride because Goldberg Vs. Lesnar has the star power to draw, even if we all know it's gonna suck and there are a couple more matches that interest me...and it's Wrestlemania.

I think it is odd how I sign a guy to be a developmental trainer and 3 months later they complain and want to be brought up the main roster.
Can happen if they are not qualified for the job and depending on personality. Also, is it an in ring worker, or a retired one?

How do Charisma and SQ work? Meaning, what's the best way to try and improve them? I usually get workers paired with guys high on these stats and work with them, but I was wondering what would be the best thing to rate the angles on to make them rise as much as possible. Entertainment? Or have I been doing this wrong for years? <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

It will eventually disappear though, contrary to other worse dislikings, like hatred. All you can do is wait it out. It's probably related to the involved wrestlers personalities. Mending can make it worse if those workers involved do not have good personalities.</p>

Thanks for the Ideas. Slaughter vs. DX as an excuse to introduce it is perfect, without the need for an actual invasion. I already signed Janetty as well, for a possible feud with Michaels, might pick up Gagne for a few shows to help introduce the belt, so this might work well. Thanks.

I'm thinking (hoping) that maybe this time the women's title is kept by Charlotte for a while instead of all the hot potato thing they did with her and Banks. I mean, keeping it up would make the title mean nothing. So I think Charlotte's streak will continue for a little more, probably until Mania.

Being a transplant in San Diego has been interesting this morning.
A lot of the die hards and radio personalities really did think Dean Spanos was bluffing about moving the team to LA. Last year I thought it'd be funny if they moved, but it isn't. Lots of broken hearts and I feel bad for the long time fans.
Worst thing is that LA doesn't even want the team.
There isn't enough interest (therefore market) let alone for one, so 2 is overkill. I love the Rams, but their move to LA isn't gonna benefit the expansion of the NFL market in LA unless there is an actual winning team there. Someone who can at least make a run to try and go to the play-offs.
In other business, Dallas vs. Green Bay is definitely the match i'm more interested to see this weekend.

I need a way to introduce the AWA title in the 1997 WWE. I don't want it to revolve around any kind of invasion and brand split of any kind, i simply want a way that makes sense to introduce a second world championship, in this case AWA's world title, which already comes with history and prestige. Hence the need to proper introduce it, but without he need for a brand split or invasion. I just don't want to randomly throw it out there without making sense. Any ideas will be appreciated.

Is there any way to know when a toxic worker stops being toxic?
