I noticed since the new update (1.40 II) that Workers and Tag Teams in a Hall of Fame get guaranteed spots just by having 1 Major Champion and 1 Epic Champion. To me, that seems like a pretty low bar, was that changed on purpose or is that a mistake?

If you have an Annual Competition / Achievement title (such as a Tournament or Battle Royal), but don't attach to be held at a certain event, when will the AI hold the event? will it just be randomly held during the year sometime?

Just reading through the Developer's Journal again for about the 50th time, while sitting in front of my computer like
while somehow waiting both patiently and also impatiently at the same time

Bumping should actually fall mostly under the Basics skill, because taking bumps is one of the bases of wrestling. When you start training, the first things they teach you are the basic fundamentals, and that always starts with bumping.
Selling is more the ability to make a move or submission and the pain from it look believable and realistic, by using facial expressions, vocal sounds (like groans of pain), and the way you use your body (holding an arm at your side or limping). Bumping can factor into selling, but only a little bit, and really comes from being able to add that extra flair to your bumps, like Hennig or RVD.

There is no way to do what the NWA or Impact does with tapings, is there? Tape multiple shows in one night.
You will be able to do this in TEW2020.
I copied and pasted this directly from the Developer's Journal. (Entry #31)
Previous entries have already covered how ratings / viewership will be very important in TEW2020, and one of the new features that gels with that is the ability for companies to 'block tape' TV shows. A company can now tape up to four episodes at once. The advantage of this is that it slashes the cost of producing the show (because everything is already in place so there's no need to transport of set-up multiple times), but the disadvantage is that the further ahead a show is taped, the more its ratings are going to get reduced, therefore the company will potentially be losing out on valuable broadcast revenue.

I've suspected for a while that there will be a demo bout shortly after Christmas....
More out of hope rather than knowledge. I don't even know if previous releases have had demos.
This would be awesome, but I don't expect we will get out hands on even a demo of the game until at least a month before it's release. Waiting for release is tough, because the more information that kept coming out about TEW2020 has pretty much made TEW2016 less and less playable for me. I'd be overjoyed to even just get the editor for 2020 at this point.

I always had big issues with momentum because I liked to bring in a couple workers for just a few appearances to fill out tournaments or just work a few shows (as the indies are known to do), but once the contracts were fulfilled and expired, my company momentum tanked because I had "lost" those workers, despite having put on great shows. It didn't seem to have to do with regional battles either, because the momentum dropped the same day the workers contracts expired.

Very cool. Out of interest, where did you find the stats for this? When I made my post I attempted to find them, especially for the WWE title, but couldn't find anything.
I'm curious if lesser promotions will qualify. Just checking on Cagematch and looking at Matt Taven, his most recent ROH World Title run will qualify as an epic title run with 11 defences, but it's ROH, which is in the doldrums right now. In real life it wouldn't hold the same weight as, for example, Okada's 2 year reign with 12 defences. I'm curious if the game will weigh that up or if it will just be a standard "10 defences and you're in" type thing.
I used Cagematch.net to do the research, it's the most comprehensive database I've been able to find out there, so I use it for almost all my wrestling research.
Adam indicated that Epic Reigns would count towards each promotions Hall of Fames too, so lesser promotions will probably take them into account when qualifying for their HOF, while any Epic Reigns with major titles in larger promotions (i.e. in WWE, NJPW, etc) will count towards the Hall of Immortals. Just my guess anyway.

10 defenses is a very fair number for the Epic Reigns. I did some research (and excluded house show title defenses since those don't happen in TEW).
For the WWE Championship, 20 out of 136 reigns would qualify.
WWE World Heavyweight title, it was 2 out of 55.
WCW World title, it is 3 out of 64.
NWA World title (counting the TNA and WCW years), it is 45 out of 96, which is almost half.
ECW World title, it is 11 out of 33.
ROH World title has 14 out of 30 qualifying, so another where it's almost half.
IWGP Heavyweight title is 3 out of 69.
GHC Heavyweight title is 2 out of 32.
AJPW Triple Crown is only 1 out of 62.
AAA Mega title is 1 out of 17.
So for most companies, it really is a rare feat to have an "Epic Reign" and then there are a few outliers where it is a bit more common.

That feeling when you realize how far away the game's release still is.

<p>Can a company have more than one "spiritual" home arenas? And can more than one company have the same home arena?</p><p> </p><p>
Can you have a mix of both venues and locations in a single region? And if so, will the AI prioritize using venues over locations? or vice versa? or how does that work?</p>

The more I read the Developer's Journal each week, the less desire I have to play TEW2016, but I just know I can't wait until TEW2020 comes out to get my TEW fix. Bah, the journal is a gift and a curse.

<p>Is there anyway to negate the loss of momentum for your company when a workers contract expires? (other than using the in-game editor)</p><p> </p><p>
I like to bring in workers for just a few appearances and not keep them long term.</p>

Is there anyway to adjust how fast a worker's performance skills (basics, psychology, safety, consistency, and selling) will improve?
I noticed, for example, wrestlers who work in Japan for touring companies will work 100+ matches in a year and their performance skills will grow unrealistically fast, thus making them into the best workers in the world even when some of them realistically shouldn't be. It just seems unbalanced to me.
It seems like Potential doesn't affect Performance skills. I thought their Maturity age might be it, but even workers over 30 (close to 40) are skyrocketing in performance skills.

Do Freelancers ever choose to stop being freelancers? Or is this a permanent thing? And if so, do they choose to stop freelancing on their own and/or can a company convince them to stop freelancing?
-
When crafting Referees where that is their only role, what worker skills (besides Refereeing) are necessary to set, or is Refereeing the only skill that matters for them and the rest can just be ignored?

I'm curious how mod makers handle it when two workers use identical names, i.e. Asuka (Kana) in WWE and ASUKA (VENY) in Japan/Indies, or the Japanese AKIRA and the American AKIRA. What is the consensus on the best way to handle that?
