First of all, Hello to my fellow TCW-Fans.
In 2020, beside The War to Settle the Score, there is also the new PPV Battleground, taking place in March, which has exclusively 4 vs. 4-Matches.
As for MITB, Royal Rumble ... I don´t think MITB really fit TCW.
Back in 2013, I did have an MITB-PPV, but it didn´t feel right with their more traditional Product.
SWF has an Royal Rumble and I don´t want to copy them.
But hey, it´s your game, do whatever you want.
What I definitely will do, is running an G1-Style Tournament, with the Final being held at the new PPV King of Kings (I will move King of Kings to December).
The winner will earn a shot for The World Title at Total Mayhem.
I´ll also create a Women´s Division, always do that.
Fuyuko Higa will (most likely) be the face of that Division.
Overall, I like where TCW is in 2020.
Yes, they lost some great Talent over the years, the Main Event is thin, the Upper Midcard/Midcard is old, the Tag Team Division is a shadow of it´s former self, you have no chance at competing with the big two in the first months ... but you still have Wolf, The Ace and Jay Chord.
Gauge is there too and there is still some great Talent on the Indies and you have more money than ever.
And if you want, you can easily expand your Coverage, now that Adam has implemented a greater variety of Broadcasters, especially if you improve your Production.
And the best thing about TCW in 2020:
Sammy Bach is still there and he never won the big one.
Everytime I have a huge Storyline for him, winning the World Title and 2020 will be no exception to the rule, even if he´s in his 40s.
At Total Mayhem 25 (in 2021), he will have his big moment.
The only thing I´m not sure about, is whether I will play as a Booker or as the Owner.
I do prefer Booker, it´s overall jsut more fun, but Kyle Rhodes is a pain in the ass, when it comes to money. Even if you make a ton of money, you basically have no chance at stealing a Worker from some of the bigger Promotions.
Anyway, can´t wait for the retail.
