Can there be a positive advantage to two workers having a negative relationship? Like, can it improve match quality between the two?

I'd be perfectly fine with this as well. I just think it should be fixed in some way/shouldn't register the same as a normal loss.

If a match ends with Worker A's disqualification via an outsider attacking his opponent, I don't think it should result in a loss in popularity since it isn't a real loss and Worker A hasn't been made to look weak at all. Also don't think that Worker A should be negatively affected morale wise for losing in this manner if his opponent is less popular. I think this should at least be an option to toggle on or off.

How is the power 500 calculated?

Same here. I have TCW at large size, Jay Chord, Greg Gauge, and Freddy Huggins among some others seem to have no popularity limits. But Wolf Hawkins and Aaron Andrews are stuck in the mid 70s and Edd Stone (along with a few others) is stuck at exactly 70. It doesn't make sense to me. Just out of curiosity, when did you start your game? I started mine on day 1 of the demo so I'm wondering if it's some sort of glitch.

This makes for a more realistic and dynamic game world.</div></blockquote><p> </p><p> Would anyone be able to elaborate more on the way this mechanic works? I've taken TCW from Medium to Large size, but several of my guys are still capped around the 70 level and I don't know what to do about it. Also unsure what the "destiny" mechanic is or how it works.

Is it possible to convince a manager to train to wrestle?

<p>Why does my backstage interviewer have Ice Cold momentum despite not being a wrestler and never being involved in any feuds?</p><p> </p><p> and/or</p><p> </p><p> Why am I so much less popular in Tasmania than the other regions in Oceania?</p>

That works, thanks

I'd appreciate a simple logo for a stable called The Brotherhood with a rouge red background please

Yet he's considered a major star by the fans... I'm just curious what the actual mechanic is that's preventing him from growing

Plenty of other guys have broken the 70 threshold but for some reason Edd Stone hasn't gone over that level in a single place despite his white hot momentum.</p>

What does the "large penalty to psychology" that comes with a gimmick actually amount to? And/Or Why can't I get Edd Stone past 70 popularity in any region? His star quality is higher than that.

IDK if this is asking too much but I would really appreciate a Greg Black render where he looks more serious and maybe is wearing a hoodie
