  1. I'll bump this as I'm into early 2021 with a save. We have just moved into weekly tv on WrestleWorld at a great cost, but I feel that it will pay off soon enough. I run at 43 pop in the Mid South and feel pretty good about getting it to a place where I can begin to offer competitive written offers before too long. I eagerly await signing Lucy in September. I decided to put my eggs in the Alina America basket and she's now established as my Figurehead, despite Foxxy being a better all-around talent. Still, there are bonuses and I have her constantly working with Commissioner Bomb in unscripted post show talking segments. She currently cuts scripted promos at a 70, and so I feel like it's not too long before she breaks through and begins to gain enough popularity to move lots of merchandise. QAW haven't suffered from any notable poaching from USPW or CWA, and have an agreement with 5SSW to send each other workers on excursion. Black Diamond should be excellent when she returns...two and a half years from now. Honey Badger is over there for a year, as I don't want to give up on the avatar and name despite her being a bit of a headache everywhere else. The stables are helpful and I've been pushing a AAA themed brotherhood faction of Lilly & Rose, Christy Higgins and Sabrina Wells, but what I'm really looking forward to is when I finally program Foxxy against Alina. I think that I'm going to move the belt back over to Foxxy after 400+ days of Alina. Danielle Sweetheart is my favorite and most dependable wrestler on the roster and I'm open to suggestions on what exactly I should do with her. She's certainly getting the crown over the summer. I know this for certain.
  2. This is the big takeaway for me. If you can get away with it, I would cancel the prebooking, run an injury and title forfeiture angle, and then let Wolf recover fully. If this is a strained rotator cuff, I'd put him on the couch (and he may not mind you sending him away on paid vacation and could be more likely to not have his morale tank if you need him to put someone over later). Too often have I worked guys through that injury in older iterations of TEW and wound up with them suffering from painkiller addictions.
  3. ULTRA Power Wrestling - October 2020 ULTRA Power - Java (Inaugural Champion with 7 Defenses) ULTRA Tag Team - .50 Cal (Inaugural Champions with 4 Defenses) ULTRA Women's - Jenny Ignition (2 Defenses) I'm using a mod that beefs up the CV with unemployed workers in different regions of the U.S. It's a great addition for my save where I'm looking for a roster of people tied to either Chicago or The Great Lakes. Jenny Ignition is from the Mid West, but I had to treat myself to a merchandise mover with high star quality.
  4. I've been frustrated recently with; I suppose, waiting for the patches to become less frequent and less disruptive before I can commit to a long save. This is entirely a personal preference. But it seems that critical errors haven't been much of an issue, so going back to 1.16 may be a happy medium going forward.
  5. I'm just beginning a game with CWA, and I'd release 15-20 wrestlers if it wouldn't cost me so much money. However, I should release as many long term bad contracts as I can in order to save the money in the long-term. Who in their right mind would pay Marc Raisin over 100k per year, anyway? I'll just let ACPW sign them and go the way of 4C.
  6. These are incredible and now I have added fuel for a TCW save. I will also sign Ernest Youngman and immediately rename him The Southside Hitman in your honor.
  7. CZCW and QAW are carving out their rosters. In my game, I had been waiting on this. CZCW and QAW are both medium sized and share quite a few workers. Alina America had left QAW several months before, and finally signed on for 40,000 per month over four years for CZCW. This seems to have opened the floodgates and both companies are signing each other's workers left and right. It's quite the sight to see the game world change from day to day. Of course, this is going to end badly for the women's division that I've made for myself. Soon, it will be my UC (J-Ro) wrestling my awful dojo graduates, but that's the game that I've decided for myself. But Rajah moved to the Great Lakes and is ok with passing the torch after his vacation with USPW.
  8. In my current game, Paul Steadyfast retired in January 2021. He immediately opened up his own dojo. Apparently, no one wanted to train under Paul Steadyfast and he left the business in the fall. Poor, poor, Paul Steadyfast.
  9. About two years in, and it's become apparent that Steve DeColt was a Trojan Horse all along. All DeColts remain on the roster, while David Stone is the only member of the Stone family remaining. The very final blow to the Stone family legacy is the product changing from a balanced product and to a classic sports entertainment product. It's pretty immersive stuff, honestly.
  10. I'm a C-Verse player. It's been somewhat harder in 2020 due to all of the talent finally retiring that debuted in the first TEW.
  11. I've had better results raising my popularity, I've found, when I have a decent amount of momentum on my side. I'm not sure if that's why I begin to pick up more popularity or if a 60 show is that much better than a 55.
  12. <p>WrestleWorld feels like it's a blessing and a curse for poaching. It helps companies grow, but it also gets attention from the big companies since WrestleWorld is acting as developmental for them.</p><p> </p><p> My thinking is to stay away from talent trading and alliances until you have enough cash saved up to sign a handful of integral workers to written deals at the same time that you're moving to broadcasting. </p><p> </p><p> There's going to be a bloodbath by the end of the second year in my game. CZCW is going to hit medium first. They share a main event scene with QAW and I think that they'll sign those workers away. QAW gets to medium size after them and should start signing aggressively. After them, it's either PSW or NYCW to medium. Someone is going to have to break their "No Stealing" pact before the merciless Big 3 come to harvest again.</p><p> </p><p> Meanwhile, FCW is in deep trouble due to their uppercard being raided as well as raises given out due to the WW exposure, and this is on top of being in a tiny market. OLLIE could go under or they could make it to mountains of cash, but their roster is just full of panicked signings and it's quite the sight.</p>

In his first year, he had one televised match. It was rated 50 and he lost to Zeus. They've also given similar money to Adam Mats and Rock God Alvarez and they've had something of a similar fate. They signed them just so EILL and 21CW didn't have them. They have 132 workers, paying six million a month in salary and still make 2-4mil a month.</p><p> </p><p> The soulless machine of NOTBPW is gone, but USPW is more than happy to take their place. </p><p> </p><p> For this reason, my tiny indie is never joining COTT, and I will not sign up for WrestleWorld until I can safely put pen to paper with my young stars.</p>

The release button will be here.</p>
  15. <p>In a save of mine, Mikey Lau won the SWF World Heavyweight crown from Scythe. He won it the night before he left for USPW. Has anyone else had something like this happen? </p><p> </p><p> Or, Eric Eisen is a bad booker who got "The Summer of Lau" all wrong.</p>
