<p>It's almost 2020 and the final Smackdown PPV of the year is No Way out which has 10 matches, 2 of which are Elimination Chamber matches.</p><p> </p><p> We started off with Tyler Breeze defeating Fenix in a 79 B to retain his light heavyweight title. He picked up the victory with a beauty shot following a cheap shot from Cody Rhodes when Tye Dillinger distracted the referee. Gorgeous, dashing and perfect right now are faces in game but I use them as tweeners as I have 4 stables and if they were heel then 3 of the 4 would be heel and I don't know how I feel about that.</p><p> </p><p> After that in a singles match, Billie Kay defeat Aiko Ando in a 71 rated match with The Boyfriend Stealer. Despite both women's division being stacked with talent, many aren't that over so I'm trying to build some more up like Liv Morgan recently and now Billie Kay, Ember Moon and more.</p><p> </p><p> One of my worst ratings on a ppv match in a long time followed this after Cedric Alexander made his ppv debut by defeating Shatter. I hope that by Wrestlemania I can get Alexander to be over enough to possibly win the Light Heavyweight Championship. Also he has the best theme song in the WWE irl and I love him so much <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />. The match got a 64 due to them not clicking and Alexander being an enhancement talent.</p><p> </p><p> Emma was looking to rebuild and get another shot at the Women's United States Championship but standing in her way was Charlotte who managed to defeat Emma with the Natural Selection. Charlotte has been underused in this game and her real life stuff is great so I'm looking to give her a push. She became women's champion in 2017 but lost it the next month in a fatal 4 way to Noelle Foley. This match got an 82.</p><p> </p><p> Following that Tye Dillinger lost his rematch against Randy Orton for the European Championship by count out following an RKO through a table. Match got another 82 and Tye can move onto other things now.</p><p> </p><p> Our 3rd and final women's match of the night got an 87 and it was for the Women's United States Championship and Liv Morgan lost her title to Bayley when Bayley reversed the Living Hell into a Bayley to Belly to win her second Women's Championship on the main roster. Her first came at Wrestlemania 33 against Sasha Banks and this run should be fun.</p><p> </p><p> At Survivor Series, Shinsuke Nakamura turned on Team MMA and here he took on one of his team mates there Conor McGregor who continued his unbeaten streak in singles matches in a 92 match. I know McGregor in the WWE is really unrealistic but it's fantasy booking for a reason.</p><p> </p><p> The first Elimination Chamber match of the night was an 87 B and it was for the Intercontinental Championship between Jason Jordan, Cole Galloway, John Cena, Jay Lethal and both The Usos. It started off with Jimmy Uso eliminating Jey Uso with a roll up and while they were arguing Jimmy turned around into an AA from John Cena and got eliminated aswell. After that Jay Lethal eliminated Cole Galloway with a Lethal Combination and also eliminated Cena surprisingly aswell before he was hit from behind with a shovel from Jason Jordan because he's crazy Maggle and Jordan hit the Jordan Slam and retained his title.</p><p> </p><p> The semi main event was the match of the night and as usual it was a tag team championship match between The Wrestling Kings and the Detroit Machine Guns with the Kings retaining the titles in a 98 A* after Cesaro hit the neutraliser on Alex Shelley.</p><p> </p><p> The main event was a number one contender to the WWE Title Elimination Chamber match because Bray picked up an injury against Sandow which would keep him out until literally the day after this ppv so I just did this so we can get a big match for the Royal Rumble. The match was between TJP, Damien Sandow, Luke Harper, Big Cass, Apollo Crews and Cody Rhodes. Sandow was surprisingly the first eliminated when he was hit with a discus clothesline from Harper, an empire elbow from Big Cass and a standing moonsault from Crews and Crews picked up the pinfall. Harper was then eliminated by Cody Rhodes with a Cross-Rhodes. Big Cass then got the elimination of Apollo Crews which left it down to two people Wyatt hadn't met on a ppv-TJP and Big Cass and TJP picked up the surprise victory and he will go on to face Wyatt at the Rumble. Big Cass is heel so that wouldn't work so TJP goes in as a big underdog. He was celebrating in the cell when the lights when out and when they came back on Bray Wyatt was inside the cell and he hit a Sister Abigail into the Chamber wall.</p><p> </p><p> That match got a 94 A with the show itself getting a 93 and I expected this show to not do so well because we had no world title in the main event</p>

<p>Survivor Series 33 was a very good show with many matches consisting of Balor Club and Bulletproof as Balor Club look to hold all of the gold on Raw.</p><p> </p><p> We started off with the only actual Survivor Series match on the card and it is a big rivalry that has been building for months. This match was Team WWE (Triple H, Enzo Amore, Dolph Ziggler, Trish Stratus and Marshall Von Erich) taking on Team MMA (Conor McGregor, Brock Lesnar, Ronda Rousey, Shinsuke Nakamura and Jerry Bowman). Brock is only back for this match as he is on a 1 month contract and I only wanted him for this match. The match started off with Trish Stratus being eliminated by Ronda before she was rolled up by MVE and eliminated. Next up Conor McGregor eliminated Enzo and MVE leaving it in a 4 on. However as Conor went to tag in Shinsuke, Shinsuke jumped off the ring apron and walked to the back. McGregor furious turned around into a superkick from Dolph Ziggler and then a pedigree from Triple H who eliminated him. It was then left to the wildcard for team MMA Jerry Bowman who turned down Triple H's offer to join team WWE and instead went to their opponents. He shocked Dolph with a small package before it was left to Triple H and Bowman. They went for another 5 minutes before Bowman reversed out of the pedigree and hit one of his own on Triple H to win the match. 86 B+.</p><p> </p><p> We followed that with an 81 B as Sean Finlay of Bulletproof retained his Global Championship against Balor Club's Tama Tonga.</p><p> </p><p> Another successful title defense up next in an 80 B as Liv Morgan defeated Emma to retain her Women's United States Championship. Emma wasn't the right person to end Liv's reign but a certain hugger is around the corner for her.</p><p> </p><p> Next up in a 77 rated match which was the worst rating of the night Randy Orton defeated Tye Dillinger to become the new European Champion. Takes the title of Tye and he can now move into the tag division with Cody while Randy's win can now solidify him as a midcard/upper midcarder now.</p><p> </p><p> Tye's stable partner Tyler Breeze then retained his Light Heavyweight Title against Vilhelm Berg in the first A of the show with a 93 A and Breeze's reign continues tonight.</p><p> </p><p> Following that was the final culmination of the feud between Tommaso Ciampa and Johnny Gargano when Gargano defeated Ciampa in an 87 B+ when Gargano made Ciampa pass out to the Garga-No Escape. Post match Gargano helped Ciampa to his feet and the two embraced in the middle of the ring and Ciampa turned face.</p><p> </p><p> The second A of the night followed that in a tag team match when The Jackson's took on Doc Gallows/Noam Dar of Bulletproof and in a 94 they retained there belts. You may be wondering why it wasn't Gallows and Anderson you will see why later.</p><p> </p><p> After that Jason Jordan defeated Cole Galloway to win the Intercontinental title following jordan hitting Cole over the head with a glass bottle when the ref got knocked down. 88 rating.</p><p> </p><p> Queen Nia Jax became a 3 time women's Champion up next when she defeated Becky Lynch in a 90 A to win the title. This comes 2 years after Nia won her second Women's Championship in the main event of Survivor Series against Noelle Foley and she looked dominant in both matches.</p><p> </p><p> In a 90 A Neville defeat Balor Club's Adam Cole to make his 21st title defense and continue his long reign with the belt. Thought about Adam going over here but Neville refused.</p><p> </p><p> I took a gamble on the placing of this match as it was heel on heel but The Wrestling Kings successfully defended their Intercontinental Tag Team Championship against The Usos in a 94 A which is great for heel on heel.</p><p> </p><p> I didn't know whether the Raw or Smackdown world titles would main event so as Raw main evented Summerslam, Smackdown got the main event this time and both matches are match of the year contenders.</p><p> </p><p> First up we had Finn Balor (leader of Balor Club) vs Karl Anderson (leader of Bulletproof) for Finn's World Heavyweight Championship which delivered a 100 A*. This was meant to be AJ Styles vs Finn Balor but AJ left and therefore Karl Anderson took the place and he still put on a 100 A*.</p><p> </p><p> I might have been annoyed at getting a 100 A* as my semi main event if the main event didn't match it when Bray Wyatt defeated Damien Sandow to retain his WWE Championship in a 100 A* which shows that Bray Wyatt is really really good and Sandow is also good.</p><p> </p><p> I hoped the show would get a 100 A* with two in a row but the show got a 98 A* which is still great and next up is Elimination Chamber for Raw and No Way Out for Smackdown.</p>

<p>I love cross-brand PPV'S because they always seem to produce the best matches with King Of The Ring providing 6 A*matches and 4 A's.</p><p> </p><p> We started off with 4 semi final matches in the King and Queen of the ring tournaments. The opener was a 91 A rated match between last year's winner of the Queen Of The Ring taking on long time friend/enemy in Bayley and Bayley got into the final with a roll up reverse from the banks statement quite like Charlotte did at SS irl. Following that it was the first semi final in the men's KOTR tournament and CM Punk qualified for the final with a win over Global Champion Sean Finlay. Many people were surprised that Finlay got this far and it reminded them of Noam Dar's KOTR run and eventual victory in 2017 but this time the run was stopped by Punk. Raw's semi final for the QOTR tournament turned out to be a walk in the park for Nia Jax who quickly disposed of Carmella to reach he final. And finally CM Punk's opponent in the main event was decided in a 91 A when Shinsuke Nakamura (who recently turned face) defeated Apollo Crews with the Kinshasa.</p><p> </p><p> We then got into the title matches on the card and the first title defense was Tye Dillinger beating Rusev to retain his European Championship. Out of the stable of Gorgeous, Dashing and Perfect he is the one I have the least plans for because he's 38 and the others are younger but for now his title reign continues with an 83 B+.</p><p> </p><p> With most of Raw's main women involved in the QOTR tournament I struggled to find an opponent for Becky Lynch so she ended up having a routine victory over Katarina Waters in an 80 B.</p><p> </p><p> The second member of Dashing, Gorgeous and perfect was in action next as Tyler Breeze defeated Rey Mysterio to retain his Light Heavyweight Championship. Big plans for Tyler Breeze and with him pulling an 87 B+ here it shows me that he can get good ratings.</p><p> </p><p> It was the end to a perfect underdog sort of revival storyline when Johnny Gargano defeated Tommaso Ciampa to become a 3 time Cruiserweight Champion. When he lost the title to Ciampa and the following rematch he was determined to earn another opportunity and for months he beat anyone who was in front of him and eventually he was handed a title shot on raw which he lost to Ciampa after Ciampa cheated so he once again went to beating opponents and he got this opportunity which he took with both hands and finally beat his long time rival.</p><p> </p><p> I said at the start that we got 6 A* matches and the first one took me by surprise when Neville defeated Jeff Hardy to retain his United States Championship in a 96. They didn't even have a positive chemistry note it was just a really good match from these two.</p><p> </p><p> I said that rating surprised me but the next one dissapointed me as Liv Morgan defeated Emma with a handful of tights to retain her Women's US Championship in a 79 B. This disappointed because it got worse that Becky vs Katarina and Kat isn't over at all. Anyway another match will happen at Survivor Series with Emma probably going over.</p><p> </p><p> Another feud that will continue into Survivor Series is the feud over the Intercontinental title between Cole Galloway and Jason Jordan after Galloway beat Jordan with a fast roll up to retain his title in an 89 A but Jordan got the last laugh when he beat up Jordan and then carried him to the back.</p><p> </p><p> A second A* rated match was up next with this one getting a 99 A and it was for the Intercontinental Tag Team Championships. I feel guilty over booking way too many 3 or 4 team matches all the time with both Tag title defenses on this show being multi tag matches. Anyway in this one The Wrestling Kings (Cesaro and Ohno/Hero) defeated The Uso's, Crash and Burn and The Detroit Machine Guns to win the IC Tag Team Titles. I made this a multi tag match because the champions The Uso's and Wrestling Kings are heels and I knew this match would get a great rating due to all 4 teams having great chemistry.</p><p> </p><p> I don't like having two tag team matches or Women's matches in a row on my card so in between the two tag matches we had the final of the Queen Of The Ring tournament between Nia Jax and Bayley and in a 92 A rated match we crowned Nia Jax as the new Queen. She's had Women's wrestler of the year two years in a row and her matches are always great so she deserves this. She's the most over women in the World and she's 99 A* on the mic due to her being the protege of John Cena. </p><p> </p><p> The second out of 3 99 A* rated matches was up next and it was a triple threat tag team match for the Tag Team Titles this time between The Von Erich's, Dean Ambrose and Seth Rollins and the Champions representing Balor Club: The Jackson's. The Jackson's did retain their titles when Nick Jackson pinned Ross Von Erich. The Shield wanted revenge on The Jackson's after they cost Seth winning the title and The Von Erich's had their rematch.</p><p> </p><p> That was followed up with a Wrestlemania rematch for the WWE Championship and in a 96 A* Bray Wyatt was successful in retaining his WWE Title against former stable partner Luke Harper. Harper claimed because he beat him at Wrestlemania and again 2 months later that he was better than Wyatt and he could win that title but this time Wyatt emerged on top.</p><p> </p><p> In the semi main event we got out 5th A* of the night and the third 99 rated match when Finn Balor defeated Bulletproof's newest member Kevin Owens to retain his World Heavyweight Championship. Balor Club were ganging up on Owens when Bulletproof came to his aid and it was announced the next week that he was their newest member but with both sides banned from ringside Finn Balor successfully retained his belt.</p><p> </p><p> The main event was to decide who will be this years King Of The Ring. Shinsuke Nakamura was looking to become a 2 time KOTR winner after winning it in 2016 and Punk was looking to get into the main event again after losing to Owens and Zayn in WHC matches since returning. And it would be CM Punk who would become 2019's KOTR in a 96 A* and he gets a shot at the world title. However during his crowning celebration thing he was attacked by the whole of Balor Club basically so he misses Survivor Series and I can go ahead with my plans.</p><p> </p><p> The show got a 96 A* and Survivor Series is starting to look like a great PPV and I'd love to top this one if I can.</p>

<p>A great Raw PPV in Capitol Punishment is over and for once it has beaten a Smackdown PPV in the rating for the first time in what seems like forever.</p><p> </p><p> We kicked it off with an 82 B rated match between Sean Finlay and Andrade Cien Almas for the WWE Global Championship and Finlay was successful in retain his title when he defeated Almas with a Very European Uppercut. Almas recently picked up a injury that he could work through but it means that he won't be getting a push anytime soon so I decided to help him solidify Finlay as a serious threat.</p><p> </p><p> Following that Los Luchas came out the the ring annoyed that they haven't been on TV or PPV in months so they issued an open challenge for anyone to accept. This open challenge was accepted by the newest tag team on Monday Night Raw: Ryan Sabre and Kenneth Ospreay. They won the match against Los Luchas in a 90 A rated match which is a great way to introduce yourselves as a new team. I found out that these two had great chemistry a couple of months ago and they were both stuck in the midcard so I decided to make them a team. I wanted to push Los Luchas but as soon as they came back up from NXT both have declining physical ability so they've been jobbed out and will probably leave post-Wrestlemania.</p><p> </p><p> Another 90 A followed this and it was a fatal 4 way between Shiima Xion, Matt Hardy, Sami Zayn and Neville for Neville's United States Championship and Neville successfully retained when he beat Matt Hardy with the red arrow. Neville last week on Monday Night Raw celebrated becoming the longest ever WWE United States Champion of all time and he retained here because I found out the man I was thinking of taking his title Sami Zayn has no chemistry against him. Oh well, Neville's reign continues for now. This was his 19th defense which is mad.</p><p> </p><p> We followed that up with an 83 B between Becky Lynch and Paige as Becky retained her title. These two had a great rivalry a few years ago over the Women's United States Championship and Finn Balor (who was Becky Lynch's kayfabe boyfriend). This time however it was a routine victory for Becky as her reign continues. Forgot to mention earlier on but in this rivalry Becky turned face when Paige repeatedly attacked her.</p><p> </p><p> At the last PPV, I accidentally booked Fred Yehi to win the Cruiserweight Championship but coming into this PPV he isn't the champion and he isn't even in the match. He lost the title back the next night to Tommaso Ciampa and he was set to be in a fatal 4 way for the title tonight but two weeks ago he suffered an injury against Xavier Woods which keeps him out until next week so this became a triple threat between Xavier Woods, Johnny Gargano and Tommaso Ciampa for the Cruiserweight Championship and Ciampa retained when he defeated Xavier Woods. </p><p> </p><p> With AJ Styles leaving for Ring Of Honor, Bulletproof needed a new leader and the new leader of Bulletproof who kicked AJ out and took control is the machine gun Karl Anderson and he wanted a match on PPV so in a 91 A he defeated Scott Dawson which makes me think that Scott could have a singles push in the future. Big plans for Karl as he will take the role that AJ would have had.</p><p> </p><p> In the semi main event the World Heavyweight Championship was on the line and I know you're think that's weird but sometimes I like to switch up my main events and I knew the main event would deliver so I put this here. This match got a 97 A* and it was a triple threat between Finn Balor, Seth Rollins and Kevin Owens. Owens was only really in there because I couldn't have Seth vs Finn because it would be heel on heel. Kevin Owens was about to pick up the victory when from out of nowhere he was hit with a triple superkick from Adam Cole and The Jackson's and then a tonga twist from Tama Tonga and taken out of the match. They then attacked Seth and this allowed Finn to hit the Coup De Grace and retain his WWE World Heavyweight Championship.</p><p> </p><p> I said that I thought the main event would deliver and it definitely did when in a superb 99 A* rated match, The Jackson's defeated The Von Erich's to win the Tag Team Championships and continue the dominance of Balor Club. With both teams having great chemistry it made their performances great and just like many tag team title matches I've had it delivered a superb match.</p><p> </p><p> The show got a 97 A* and I was delighted with how it turned out in the end. The next 2 ppv's are not brand exclusive with us having King of the ring and King Of The Ring and then Survivor Series and I have major plans for both of them which should be fun to write.</p>

<p>WWE Armageddon 2019 is over and yet another successful Smackdown PPV.</p><p> </p><p> We started off with a fatal 4 way for the Women's United States Championship between Kharma, Liv Morgan, Emma and AJ Lee which scored us an 82 B. It ended with Liv Morgan picking up the victory and retaining her title by defeating Kharma with the Living Hell. I plan on having Emma vs Liv and Kharma vs AJ in future ppv's.</p><p> </p><p> That was followed up with the culmination of the ****ed up feud between Jason Jordan and Chad Gable with both coming into this match with technically 1 victory each after Jordan beat Gable then in the next match got disqualified when he low blowed Chad so they settled it inside of Hell In A Cell in yet another match that Gable did not want. Jordan picked up the victory with the Jordan Slam and he's now got a new target.</p><p> </p><p> The next match got a slightly lower rating than I was expecting with a 73 B- but Tyler Breeze and Jack Gallagher did not click so this Light Heavweight Title match dissapointed. Anyway Gallagher was unable to regain his title and Breeze's reign continues.</p><p> </p><p> Breeze's stable partner Tye Dillinger also made a successful title defense when he retained his European Championship in a 76 rated match against Samoa Joe. Not much to this just a simple defense for Tye.</p><p> </p><p> After that we had a really good IC Title Defense for Cole Galloway against Shatter when in a 92 A which was the second highest rated match of the night Galloway defeated Shatter with a future shock DDT. Galloway has been really impressing lately and I see a second World Championship within the next year. Post match Cole Galloway was celebrating when he was attacked post match by Jason Jordan. Yes Jordan is going after the IC Championship and this should be interesting to write up.</p><p> </p><p> The next feuds weren't really important so basically The Uso's defeated Crash and Burn to retain their IC Tag Championships (88), Enzo Amore defeated Randy Orton (86), Damien Sandow defeated Rey Mysterio (86) and Big Cass was beaten by Cody Rhodes (88).</p><p> </p><p> King Wyatt's WWE Championship reign has been amazing so far with his promos killing it and both his title matches so far getting a 98 and a 99 and this one also got a 99 A* when he defeated Dolph Ziggler to retain his WWE Title. These two had a great rivalry back in 2016 which ended with Ziggler defeating Wyatt inside Hell In A Cell which got a great rating then so I decided that Dolph would be his next challenger because I knew they would pull a great rating and they did. No plans on having Wyatt drop the title for at least a couple of months.</p><p> </p><p> Only thing that has really happened away from this has been that Jay Briscoe (80 overness) left us for ROH on a 50k a month deal. ROH really want to beat us this bad that they paid our midcarder 50k a month. They did get AJ Styles though so it seems that they are really upping their game.</p>

Turns out I missed his contract coming up and he joined my biggest rival ROH. Well this could make things interesting

<p>You know when your opener gets match of the night it wasn't a great PPV unless that was a damn good opener.</p><p> </p><p> The Opener I am on about was quite a good match with a 92 rating but I expected so much better from the rest of the show. This match was Sami Zayn defeating Grado (signed him at the start of the game with a ton of ICW guys, got him to midcarder and since he was on ppa he's a main eventer in other companies where he is currently the ICW and TNA World Champions and now he is a main eventer for me lol). Anyway just a way to get Sami some more momentum going forward as I really don't know how to book Grado now.</p><p> </p><p> Following that we had a 78 rated ladder match between Shiima Xion and Matt Hardy who is helping people get over now before he retires and he has excellent chem with Xion but a lack of psychology. Anyway Xion goes over as I build him up.</p><p> </p><p> In a match that went a lot longer than people were expecting Becky Lynch defeated Taryn Terrell in 20 minutes and an 80 rated match. Everyone expected Becky to win but Terrell came close many times and made people actually believe she would win. Decent match.</p><p> </p><p> We followed that up with an 81 rated No Holds Barred match between Big E and John Morrison with Big E winning with a Big Ending through a table but Morrison was on top for a while until he was low blowed by Big E. Not planning on continuing this because Big E didn't do anything wrong really. It's no DQ so he can low blow Morrison and it's legal.</p><p> </p><p> Another 81 rated match followed this and this time it was for the Tag Team Championship when The Von Erich's were able to retain their titles against Anderson and Gallows. It was face on face so this rating was to be expected.</p><p> </p><p> Sometimes a booking mistake can turn good and I'm hoping it does this time because I accidentaly booked Fred Yehi to defeat Tomasso Ciampa for the Cruiserweight Championship when Ciampa was meant to retain. Fred Yehi is a future star here in the WWE but I wanted Ciampa vs Gargano 3 so I think Yehi will drop the belt either on Raw or at the next PPV.</p><p> </p><p> After William Regal cost him what seemed like a certain victory over Neville at Summerslam, Kalisto got his rematch against Neville for the Women's United States Championship but Neville walked away with the championship once again. He's 3 weeks away from beating Dean Ambrose's record and he's defended on every PPV for the past year unlike Dean did.</p><p> </p><p> Speaking of Dean Ambrose he went out to try and prove that Sean Finlay's victory at Summerslam was a fluke but he was unable to do so as once again Finlay walks away as the WWE Global Champion with the Very European Uppercut. I want to give him a more realistic finisher but I haven't thought of one yet.</p><p> </p><p> In the semi main event Finn Balor defeated Bulletproof's newest member Noam Dar in a 83 B. Dar cost Finn the match against AJ Styles at SS just like Adam Cole did to AJ at WM so Finn got pissed off at this and wanted to destroy Noam Dar which he did but not without Noam getting a lot of attack in and almost making Finn tap out to the Champagne Super Kneebar.</p><p> </p><p> The Main Event could have been so much better than it actually ended up being and irl it would probably get match of the year when in this game it got a 90 A. That main event was Seth Rollins defeating AJ Styles to retain his World Heavyweight Title. If you've seen on the random screenshots thread AJ Styles decided to leave 4 days before I planned on giving him the World Heavyweight Championship so Seth had to win this match and continue his lacklustre title reign. I mean he's dissapointed in his last 3 main event's on PPV if I remember right.</p><p> </p><p> But wait the lights go out and what's this. Balor Club are surrounding Seth in the ring, he tries to escape but he is hit with a double superkick from The Jackson's. Dean Ambrose runs down to the ring to try and make the save but is destroyed by Tama Tonga. Finn clears the ring of his Balor Club friends and hands his MITB contract to the referee. He climbs to the top rope, he stares at the crowd, he smiles and hits the Coup De Grace on Seth Rollins. 1,2, 3. FINN BALOR IS YOUR NEW WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION. </p><p> </p><p> He's already got slightly declining in physical ability so this could be his only run with the belt and it only came around because AJ is leaving but well done anyway Finn. You deserve it.</p>

<p>4 days away from becoming a 3 time World Champion here in the WWE I get this message from AJ Styles: <a href="http://imgur.com/a/bS94l" rel="external nofollow">http://imgur.com/a/bS94l</a></p><p> He's happy so I don't know why he's telling me this but I wanted to get him into the HOI before he retired <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/frown.png.e6b571745a30fe6a6f2e918994141a47.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

<p>Another great Smackdown PPV is done and the first PPV following Summerslam known as Superstars (I hated that WWE made this show worthless so I made it a PPV) went really well.</p><p> </p><p> To start off we had a triple threat match for the European Title. The new Tye Dillinger faced off against Samoa Joe and the former Champion Zeshin Ikoma and he retained his title in a 79 rated match. How I imagine it going is Samoa Joe hits a musclebuster on Ikoma and Tye throws him out of the ring and picks up the victory which sets up a Joe vs Tye match next month.</p><p> </p><p> We followed that up with the continuation of the ****ed up storyline between Chad Gable and Jason Jordan despite them having negative chemistry in matches. Anyway JJ has gone even more crazy over the past 3 weeks and when Gable wanted nothing to do with him he didn't care and kept attacking him anyway. Before the match Gable makes his entrance and he waits for Jordan to come out and when he does he is riding a horse which he proceeds to ride around the ring before getting in the ring, low blowing Gable, getting on his horse and riding off again. The angle got a 100 A* rating because Jordan has amazing Entertainment skills and this feud is going to continue even longer because I find it amazing to write. The character of Jordan reminds me a lot of Broken Matt Hardy just without the whole final deletion thing which definitely WON'T be happening in my game.</p><p> </p><p> The next match after that was for the Women's United States Championship and AJ Lee had her rematch against Liv Morgan for the belt but in a 86 A rated match Liv Morgan just managed to defeated AJ. Post match AJ is getting to her feet when she is attacked from behind by a returning Kharma. Seeing the attack Liv dived into the ring and looked like she was going to help AJ but instead she joined in the beat down. However as she lifted her up to hit the Living Hell (her finisher) Emma's music hit and she ran down to the ring and made the save before she hit it. Don't know whether I'm going to do a fatal 4 way or two singles matches at the next PPV.</p><p> </p><p> Tyler Breeze has been very confident since winning the light heavyweight title and he backed up that confidence in a 77 B match where he retained his Light Heavyweight title against Akira Tozawa. Trying to rebuild Breeze back up as he main evented the 2017 Royal Rumble against CM Punk and Christopher Daniels for the WHC and at that Wrestlemania he beat John Cena but after that he fell down to the midcard for a while and I feel he could be a star for us.</p><p> </p><p> In an 88 B+ rated match The Uso's defeated Hermanos Enmascarados (Angel De Oro and Angel De Plata) to retain their IC Tag Team Championships. I'm not good with coming up with team names and their team is just Masked Brothers in spanish. They are former IC Tag Champions and NXT Tag Champions but they weren't going to win here with how good The Uso's have been so far.</p><p> </p><p> The next match was the second highest rated match of the night when Cole Galloway retained his Intercontinental Title against Ted Dibiase Jr in a 94 A. Dibiase wanted to become a 2 time IC Champion after he was given the title by Randy last year then lost it in his first defense but he was never going to defeat Galloway who is one of my favourite guys in real life so he is getting a major push that Vince should have given him instead of the ****ing 3MB.</p><p> </p><p> Following that we had a street fight between Randy Orton and John Cena basically because I have big plans for Cena and he needs momentum and who better to get it against than Randy Orton. Randy is starting to have declining physical ability but Cena doesn't so I think it's time to slowly move Randy down the card and have him put people over. Because they aren't great in Hardcore matches the match only got an 82 despite their great Chemistry.</p><p> </p><p> After that Mr Money In The Bank Enzo Amore stepped up to try and stop the role that Apollo has been on but he was unsuccessful in his effort in a 92 A as Apollo continues to steamroll through the Smackdown Roster again. I don't know when Enzo or Finn will cash in on either brand and the plans I have mean both could happen after Mania which I don't feel happy about.</p><p> </p><p> In the semi main event I gave Chris Sabin a chance to see how he could do in singles action when he took on Smackdown's newest signing Shinsuke Nakamura and Sabin impressed as the match got an 89 A. Shinsuke was doing nothing on Raw so I kayfabe had his Raw contract run up and following Summerslam he debuted on SD and attacked Chris Sabin because he wanted to make a big impact here. Big Plans for him over the next 6 months.</p><p> </p><p> After their amazing Summerslam match, Cody Rhodes got his rematch for the WWE Championship against the champion King Wyatt and they beat their 98 A* rated match at SS with a 99 A* rated match where Wyatt defeated Cody Rhodes to retain his WWE Championship. I thought about having Enzo cash in here but Wyatt deserves better than a 3 month title reign.</p><p> </p><p> The show itself got a 96 A* and once again SD are on top of Raw in attendances and ratings but the attendances are because they have Ziggler who is the figurehead I guess.</p>

<p>Ratings wise Summerslam was not a great show but in terms of enjoyment writing the storylines and the fantasy booking means this is one of my favourite PPV's so far in this game. I'm not going to go into detail on most feuds but on my favourite's and the main one's I will.</p><p> </p><p> Kalisto beat Neville by DQ in a US Title match when Regal got involved: 79</p><p> </p><p> Tye Dillinger defeated Zeshin Ikoma, Tony Nese, Samoa Joe, No Way Jose and Joe Hendry in a ladder match to win the European Title: 82</p><p> </p><p> Tyler Breeze defeated Akira Tozawa to win the Light Heavyweight title: 90</p><p> </p><p> Eric Price defeated Kofi kingston: 91</p><p> </p><p> Liv Morgan defeated AJ Lee and Noelle Foley to win the Women's US Championship: 79</p><p> </p><p> Tommaso Ciampa defeated Ricochet to retain his Cruiserweight Championship: 79</p><p> </p><p> Jason Jordan defeated Chad Gable: 72. The rating dissapointed me because this is my favourite storyline right now. Basically Gable turning on Jordan has sent Jordan mad. On Raw he abducted Gable and took him to a forest where he cut a creepy promo and he's basically just mad. Sadly they don't click as opponents so this match bombed.</p><p> </p><p> Apollo Crews defeated Damien Sandow: 91</p><p> </p><p> Becky Lynch defeated Peyton Royce to retain the Women's Championship: 91</p><p> </p><p> Conor McGregor defeated Triple H: 76. Imagine Conor made the comments about wrestling 3 years in the future (kayfabe) and Triple H invited him to show him how fake wrestling is at Summerslam and got his arse handed to him. Match bombed as expected.</p><p> </p><p> The Usos defeated TM61 to retain their IC Tag Team Titles: 86</p><p> </p><p> Sean Finlay defeated Dean Ambrose to win the WWE Global Championship: 90. I planned on giving Finlay a slow singles push and a possible KOTR win at the end of the year but an injury meant that Dean needed a new opponent and I decided to give that go to Finlay and he goes over here.</p><p> </p><p> Cole Galloway defeated Big Cass in a no holds barred match to retain the IC Title: 83</p><p> </p><p> AJ Styles defeated Finn Balor: 93. This feud is still not over after newest Bulletproof member Noam Dar cost Finn the match.</p><p> </p><p> The Von Erich's defeated The Jackson's and Anderson and Gallows to retain their WWE Tag Team Titles: 93</p><p> </p><p> Dolph Ziggler defeated Rey Mysterio: 90</p><p> </p><p> King Wyatt defeated Cody Rhodes to win the WWE Championship: 98. I really did not expect this rating which is why this was the semi main event in the end but this is one of the reason I loved this PPV as Wyatt finally won his first world title.</p><p> </p><p> Main Event: Seth Rollins defeated Hiroshi Tanahashi to retain the WWE World Heavyweight title: 88. Really dissapointing. Seth was no longer injured and both are over as hell so I hoped that this was a great match but it wasn't good.</p><p> </p><p> Overall the show got a 90 A which I hoped for better but it was still an ok PPV.</p>

<p>The final Raw PPV before Summerslam is over and as I expected the main event really brought the rating down despite it being the same as MITB.</p><p> </p><p> We started off with a rematch from MITB where The Bloodline tried and failed to reclaim their WWE Tag Team Titles from The Von Erich's when Marshall defeated Cody Hall. Sean Finlay will ask Cody to go seperate ways and Cody will drift for a while but Finlay will get a big push. I don't think either is turning though. Match got an 89 A.</p><p> </p><p> Following that we had Ryan Sabre taking on Kalisto because Sabre has slowy dropped from a Upper Midcarder to a lower midcarder and he needs pushed back up the card again. Later on in the show Kalisto returns again and that will set up a Summerslam match while this one got an 81 B.</p><p> </p><p> Another match to push someone up the card was Aaron Magnus losing to Roderick James (Strong) in a 76 B-. Roderick got an initial push but then he kind of just got lost in the shuffle but he deserves a better push and that is coming after Summerslam.</p><p> </p><p> The Women's title was on the line next when Peyton Royce defeated Asuka in a 77 rated match to retain her Women's title. I regret what happened with Asuka in this game as I forgot to make her NXT Women's Champion at the start of the game and then I forgot to renew her contract and when she returned 6 months later she wasn't used and basically she isn't on the level of the other women. Anyway post match Peyton was celebrating when from behind she was hit with the Women's Money In The Bank briefcase from Becky Lynch who proceeded to cash in, hit the Bexploder suplex and became the Women's Champion. Peyton vs Becky is planned for SS.</p><p> </p><p> Following that we had a 90 rated match where Neville defeated Tama Tonga to retain his WWE United States Title with this long reign continuing. It could have got a better rating had Tonga not injured Neville in a tag team match meaning he had to work through that. This shouldn't hurt Tonga that much hopefully.</p><p> </p><p> Post match Neville was celebrating when his friend and former 2 time United States Champion Kalisto attacked him and turned heel. Wanted to make Kalisto seem fresh and him vs Neville could be a good SS feud and a way to continue Neville's reign.</p><p> </p><p> Following that in an 84 B+ Tomasso Ciampa retained his Cruiserweight Championship against John Morrison. Thought about putting it on Morrison but I prefer Ciampa and I'm having a sort of redemption storyline on Raw with Gargano and he could take his title back in the near future.</p><p> </p><p> Former World Heavyweight Champion Big E hasn't really done much since he dropped the title a year ago and I want to make him still look like a strong main eventer on Raw so he defeated 2017's King Of The Ring winner Noam Dar in a 93 A which was the match of the night. Both are currently main eventers and I see both men as being World Heavyweight Champions soon.</p><p> </p><p> In a match that was underwhelming as I expected better, AJ Styles and Karl Anderson defeated The Jackson's in an 88 B+ which I expected to get in the 90's but AJ and Karl don't have positive or negative chemistry so they were given no boost while The Jackson's aren't really over enough yet.</p><p> </p><p> The Semi Main event of the night was for the Global Championship and it was Dean Ambrose successfully defend his title against Joe Coffey in a 92 A. What happened was that Seth Rollins had to put his title on the line on Raw and he defeated Noam Dar following interference from Big E. Post match Dean, Seth and Big E were beating down on Dar when Coffey ran in to make the save for his friend and the next week he challenges Dean to a match. Being an upper midcarder I knew this match would do well and it was a really good match between these two.</p><p> </p><p> The main event was always going to suffer because of an injury that Seth Rollins suffered on Raw just two weeks before this show meaning he had to work through. Anyway in a 84 B+ rated match Seth Rollins defeated Kevin Owens with a phoenix splash to retain his World Heavyweight Title. Plan is for Seth to face a returning Hiroshi Tanahashi at Summerslam and I already know when and to who Seth will drop the title to.</p><p> </p><p> The show overall got an 86 B+ which is one of the lowest in a while and a weak way to build up to Summerslam but I have some big plans and Summerslam should be a really good show.</p>

<p>So with a mix of illness and returning to school I haven't had a lot of time or motivation to play TEW but I have that back and I've just finished booking Smackdown's final PPV before Summerslam: Judgement Day.</p><p> </p><p> We started off with Akira Tozawa taking on Jay Lethal for the Light Heavyweight Championship and in a 76 B- Tozawa defeated Lethal to retain his title and continue his reign. I thought about putting the title on Lethal but it would stop the push of Tozawa.</p><p> </p><p> A match I didn't expect to have followed this but when my card is looking small I like to call someone up from Developmental and give them their debut on a PPV. This time it was Clara Pastor (a regen) as in a 71 she went on to defeat LuFisto. Before the match she had a 5 minute hype video as always to get the fans actually knowing who she is instead of just throwing them into the card and expecting fans to know them like WWE do in real life.</p><p> </p><p> We followed that with an 89 A for the European Championship when Zeshin Ikoma successfully defended his championship against Jason Jordan when Jordan was turned on by long time tag team partner and best friend Chad Gable who was annoyed that Jordan got another singles title opportunity when he was once again left in the dark.</p><p> </p><p> Next up was an 80 rated contest that went to a double DQ between Noelle Foley and AJ Lee after Liv Morgan got involved and attacked both women. Triple threat is set to happen at Summerslam but I have yet to decide who is going over.</p><p> </p><p> Right after that we had a tag team match where Cesaro and Randy Orton teamed up together to try and take down Gorgeous and Perfect (Tye Dillinger and Tyler Breeze) but in an 86 B+ they were unsuccessful in their efforts. Planning on giving Randy Orton a couple of months off as I have no plans for him.</p><p> </p><p> Following that we had a ladder match for the Intercontinental Championship between Big Cass and Cole Galloway. In a tag team match between Big Cass and Bray Wyatt vs Cole Galloway and Sheamus, Big Cass managed to somehow crack Sheamus' skull so now he's injured for a year so Cole Galloway decided that he was going to take Cass' championship which in a 90 A rated match he did so and the former WWE Champion became a 3 time Intercontinental Champion.</p><p> </p><p> The semi main event between The Uso's and The Ultimate Connection got a 95 A* when Jimmy Uso defeated Rey Mysterio following a botched interference from Dolph Ziggler who accidentally hit Rey instead of The Uso. Post match Rey Mysterio did turn heel following the match when following an argument he slapped Ziggler and hit him with a 619.</p><p> </p><p> The Main Event got a 96 A* in a triple threat match between Cody Rhodes, Damien Sandow and Apollo Crews for the WWE Championship. This feud was mainly based around Apollo vs Sandow which will be a Summerslam feud but the story here was that they destroyed each other while Cody watched during the match before out of nowhere he hit a cross rhodes and retained his WWE Championship. </p><p> </p><p> Overall the show got a 94 A and a lot of it was to build up towards Summerslam.</p>

Well ROH the number 2 promotion in the world just did this: http://imgur.com/a/cGLBz Could either turn out as a TNA situation or a WCW one. Anyway things are going to get interesting

Please I hope you haven't made Amell the IC Champion

<p>turns out when I'm either tired or ill (or both) I make some weird decisions in TEW. A couple of weeks ago I ended up making the tag team of Samoa Joe and Mojo Rawley by the name of Samojo...</p><p> And last night I was ill and suffering but I decided to load up some TEW and I ended up creating Frank the delivery guy who is literally a Pizza delivery guy. Guess that guy's getting jobbed to hell <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

<p>Money in the bank 2019 is done and it was extremely good with a few twists and turns along the way so let's get into it.</p><p> </p><p> We started off with the first ever Women's Money In The Bank match which was different from the male match in which instead of a ladder match they had a elimination match to change things up. Anyway Becky Lynch overcame Ember Moon, Liv Morgan, Mandy Rose, Nia Jax and Alexa Bliss to have the honour of being the first ever Women's MITB holder.</p><p> </p><p> That was then followed by Akira Tozawa defeating Eli Ricker in an 86 B+ rated match to retain his Light Heavyweight Championship. Eli put up a great fight but he wasn't enough to take down Tozawa as his reign continues.</p><p> </p><p> Next up in a rating that surprised me when I saw it was Neville vs Aaron Magnus or Magnus as he was known in TNA for the US Championship and Neville successfully defended his title in a 91 A rated match which for how low down the card it was was a shock to see.</p><p> </p><p> In an 80 rated match, Noelle Foley was victorious over Charlotte in the first ever Women's Hell In A Cell match which ends their feud and now Foley will go after the winner of tonight's Women's US Championship match.</p><p> </p><p> The Tag Team titles were on the line next as The Von Erich's defeated The Bloodline for the titles in a 91 A. Marshall and Sean Finlay (David Finlay Jr) are on the next big things so I want both of them to be stars and we are working towards giving Finlay a singles push while The Von Erich's have a tag title reign.</p><p> </p><p> In the second MITB match of the night, Finn Balor defeated AJ Styles, Lince Dorado, Shiima Xion, Kenneth Ospreay and last years winner Sami Zayn to become the new Raw Money In The Bank holder. The story in this match was that AJ was alone in the ring and setting up a ladder when from out of nowhere he was hit with a double Superkick from The Jackson's and Finn capitalized.</p><p> </p><p> Another 84 rated match followed that when Ciampa defeated Gargano again to retain his Cruiserweight Championship. Whereas I want to push Gargano to the top, I don't see Ciampa as a top star so I'm getting Gargano out the Cruiserweight Picture and a push up the card will soon follow for the 2 time Cruiserweight and 1 time Light Heavyweight Champion.</p><p> </p><p> The 3rd and final MITB match got a disappointing 80 rating but Enzo Amore defeated Apollo Crews, TJP, Luke Harper, Jason Jordan and the returning Damien Sandow. The plan originally was to give Sandow the win and then cash in on Apollo Crews when he won the belt but then I couldn't decide between Enzo, JJ or Sandow so I let the cpu pick and they gave it to Enzo.</p><p> </p><p> In a sort of throwaway tag team title match, The Ultimate Connection defeated Crash and Burn (T-Bone and Rampage Brown) and The Wolf Pack to retain their titles. Post match however they were attacked by the returning Uso's who return from ROH and Tna to go after the tag titles.</p><p> </p><p> In an exceptional match AJ Lee defeated Queen Sasha to retain her Women's US Championship in a 95 A* rated match which really surprised me.</p><p> </p><p> The next match of the night got the joint highest rating of the night with a 96 A* when Kofi Kingston lost his rematch to Dean Ambrose for the Global Championship which Ambrose won on Raw a few weeks ago. This wasn't the original plan but when Reigns got another 6 month injury I couldn't have them go after the tag titles so Ambrose went after this one instead.</p><p> </p><p> The semi main event of the night got a 93 A as Cody Rhodes defeated a recently turned heel Cesaro to retain his WWE Championship following interference from a returning Tye Dillinger. plan for Battleground is for Cesaro and Orton to take on Tye and Tyler Breeze.</p><p> </p><p> The main event of the night got a 96 A* when Seth Rollins defeated Kevin Owens to become a 2 time World Heavyweight Champion. As I said Seth was meant to be World Champion while Dean and Roman were the tag champions but I like what I've done now better. Also Seth won with a Curb Stomp which GM Edge will punish Seth for on Raw by making him defend week after week for basically cheating to win the belt.</p><p> </p><p> In between all of this were matches which didn't need much explainingn such as Big Cass defeating Sheamus, Zeshin Ikoma defeating Shingo Takagi, Peyton Royce defeated Naomi and Tyler Breeze def. Randy Orton.</p><p> </p><p> Show got a great 95 A* overall.</p>

<p>WWE Over The Limit replaced Extreme Rules this year as I hate booking that PPV and this PPV is really about building up talent who I want to push.</p><p> </p><p> We started off the show with The Von Erich's vs The Hardy Boyz in a Tag Team number one contendership match for the Tag Team Titles. So in an 84 B+ The Von Erich's went over and at Money In The Bank they will go on to face the winner of the Tag Team Title match that is happening tonight.</p><p> </p><p> That was followed by an 80 B when the push of Shiima Xion continued when he defeated Rhyno in a simple match just to use Rhyno and to push Xion further up the card.</p><p> </p><p> Another match that was simply to put someone over and get him further up the card was a 75 B- between Lince Dorado and Elgin where Dorado who debuted after Wrestlemania went over the midcarder who I have no plans for right now while Dorado could become a really good part of the Cruiserweight Division here on Monday Night Raw.</p><p> </p><p> Next up The Von Erich's learned who they would be facing at Money In The Bank when The Bloodline took on The Morrison's (Briscoes) in an 85 B+ and the winner was The Bloodline when Cody Hall defeated Mark Briscoe with a quick roll up. I've has The Briscoe's for 3 years now and they've done nothing but there push is coming soon.</p><p> </p><p> That was followed by the Global Championship triple threat match between Kofi Kingston, Fred Yehi and The Miz with kofi retaining when he defeated The Miz with a Trouble In Paradise. I have plans for both Yehi and Kofi being future World Champions and I'm going to continue to job out The Miz due to him picking Hollywood over Wrestling again.</p><p> </p><p> AJ Styles continues to go through Balor Club before he can get to Finn and the next man was the newest member of Balor Club who debuted on the Raw post Payback and attacked AJ, Tama Tonga. The match got an 82 rating which was to be expected as Tama Tonga is only a midcarder and AJ has got bad declining ability right now. He will be in the Money In The Bank match as will Finn before AJ and Karl take on The Jackson's at Battleground and he will finally get his hands on Finn at Summerslam.</p><p> </p><p> The following match was between Neville and Andrade "Cien" Almas for the United States Title and in an 88 B+ Neville's run continued as following interference from William Regal he was able to retain his title against Almas. While Neville is a face, the interference will lead to a slowly built heel turn for Neville where he lets Regal basically hand him the title in every defense.</p><p> </p><p> The second best match of the night was the Women's match for the Women's title between Peyton Royce and Becky Lynch which got an 89 rating and Peyton makes another successful defence of her title that she won at Wrestlemania. I have plans for Becky but Peyton's push will go on for a little while longer before she drops the Women's title. Great to see that the women can get the second best match of the night.</p><p> </p><p> The semi-main event of the show got an 86 which I honestly expected more from but maybe my hopes were too high as in an 86 Tommaso Ciampa ended the reign of Johnny Gargano as he claimed the Cruiserweight Championship with a handful of tights. Gargano is a future World Champion but for now this rivalry is going to continue between these former tag team partners.</p><p> </p><p> The main event slightly disappointed me when Kevin Owens defeated CM Punk in a 93 A to retain his World Heavyweight Championship. Punk lost to Sami Zayn at Fastlane in February and being a heel he said that Zayn is clearly better than Owens and it would be easy for him to pick up the victory which didn't end up being the case after Owens escaped the GTS and hit a 3rd pop up powerbomb on Punk to remain the World Heavyweight Champion.</p><p> </p><p> In other news, with me being 3 years in a lot of contracts have been running out and everyone that I have tried to extend has been countered by ROH and Evolve and while I've gone out of my way to extend the necessary people I have lost a lot of the lower card. ROH have took Dan Head, Cash Money Erkan, Mascara Dorada and Curt Hawkins. They aren't the biggest names to lose but I had plans for Dorada and Erkan. As well as this Evolve took Wade Barrett who I also had plans for. As Well as this Chris Jericho, The Rock and The Big Show have just announced their retirements. Anyway onto Money In The Bank where I have major plans.</p>

WWE Breaking Point 2019 just happened and I love booking Smackdown which is surprising because when I started the brand split Smackdown was so weak but I built up Apollo Crews, Enzo and Cass, Cody Rhodes, Harper and Wyatt and even more making SD the best brand. We started off with The Wolf Pack taking on the team of Cole Galloway and a returning Sheamus after we stole him from ROH and he finished filming a movie. Anyway in a 92 A rating Galloway and Sheamus picked up the victory when Sheamus hit the brogue on Richards. I don't know if I'm going to continue pushing Galloway and Sheamus as a team but after their performance in this match, I am considering it. That was followed up by Jerry Bowman defeating Fenix in a 78 rated match. I had big plans for Fenix but he got done for steroids twice so I've decided to job him out until either his contract runs up or he gets the third strike for steroids. This was simply to continue Bowman's push who I see as my next figurehead after Dolph Ziggler. Next up was the continuation of the Noelle Foley vs Charlotte feud when Charlotte got one back on Foley when she beat her with a handful of tights in an 80 rated match. They will have a blowoff match at MITB with the first ever Women's Hell in a Cell match I have done in this save. The first title defense of the night followed this when Zeshin Ikoma defeated Shingo Tagaki and No Way Jose in a triple threat elimination match to retain his European Title in an 83 B where Ikoma defeated Jose with a shooting star press. I plan on jobbing Jose out because in 3 years his skills are bad and he can't put on a good match. Apollo Crews still only has one loss to his name after he defeated Jay Lethal in an 84 rated match where he reversed a top rope move from Lethal into a powerbomb and picked up the victory. Big plans for Apollo soon but next month he goes into the MITB match which will see the return of a certain Intellectual savior of the masses who defeated him at Wrestlemania. Akira Tozawa followed that up by defeating ACH in an 87 rated match to retain his Light Heavyweight title and he is starting to get over now and in a couple of months he should be around the upper midcard/ main event scene before I take away his title. I have plans for ACH in the future but not right now. That was then followed up by the blow-off match in the feud between Bray Wyatt and Luke Harper with Harper picking up the victory by throwing Bray into the turnbuckle that Bray exposed followed by a discus clothesline which would give Luke the win and both men come out of this feud better than when they entered it. Harper will go after the IC title while I have something lined up for Bray at Summerslam. Next up was a move that I didn't really want to make but I was forced to when AJ Lee defeated Sasha Banks and Emma to win the Women's United States Championship in a 94 rated match. I wanted Emma to win and continue her reign but in a match with Eva Marie (typical) she got a injury that she can work through from a botch by Eva and as it was a 3 month injury I've took the title off her. Post match she was attacked by a debuting Liv Morgan which will write her off TV until post Summerslam while I might put the title on Liv by then but I have a lot of work to do before that so it depends. Another feud that ended at this PPV was for the Intercontinental Title when Big Cass defeated Enzo Amore in a 94 rated match to retain his Intercontinental Title. While it may seem like Cass is walking out the winner from this feud, Enzo is actually going into the MITB match next month and will be around the WWE Title picture. It's just a way to push Enzo to the top because he has potential to be The Rock of 2019. The Semi-main event was the match of the night which seems to be a regular occurrence with Tag Team matches. Anyway, The Ultimate Connection defeated American Alpha in a 99 A* rated match to retain their IC tag titles. plan is having them dropping the titles soon with them having a match at Summerslam but with Dolph being my figurehead that would mean turning Rey which I don't feel comfortable with. The Main Event only got one rating less as another feud ended here tonight when for one last time Cody Rhodes defeated Randy Orton in a 2 out of 3 falls match with the last fall happening due to interference from Tyler Breeze to Randy. I plan on Cody, Breeze and Tye Dillinger being in a stable and with me bidding on Dillinger to return right now this seems like a big possibility. Anyway I am very happy with a 98 A* and the show got a 97 A* as we move into MITB which of course is a both brand PPV where we will debut the Women's Money In The Bank briefcase and we will have 3 SD women and 3 Raw women battling it out not in a ladder match but instead an elimination match just to switch things up and not make it exactly like the Male MITB match.

<p>3 years in game after my first ever PPV in this save, Payback 2016 is over and instead of Dolph Ziggler vs Roman Reigns which main evented that one we have Kevin Owens vs Sami Zayn in the main event.</p><p> </p><p> We started off with the Women's Championship on the line as Naomi got her rematch for the title but Peyton Royce was able to defeat her and retain the Women's Championship in an 80 rated match. Looking for her to defend at the next PPV before Nia Jax gets involved and becomes a 3 time women's champion around about Battleground.</p><p> </p><p> That was followed up by The Bloodline retaining their Tag Team Titles against The Hardy Boys and The Von Erich's who debuted from NXT on the post Wrestlemania Raw. Plan is for Von Erich's to take The Bloodline's titles but not yet as they will face The Hardy's next month.</p><p> </p><p> That was followed up by Eric Price winning a 3 on 1 handicap match against 3 local jobbers in a 68 rating. Triple H will return soon and I'm thinking about continuing their rivalry.</p><p> </p><p> Next up was the final of the 16 man number one contendership tournament for the Cruiserweight Championship. The final two men were both newcomers with Shiima Xion losing to Tommasso Ciampa in an 84 rated match as Johnny Gargano watched on. Post match Gargano tried to congratulate his former tag team partner and to be a good sportsman but he was hit with a low blow from Ciampa who then took his Cruiserweight title and walked out with it.</p><p> </p><p> After he lost his Global Championship to Kofi Kingston at Wrestlemania, Noam Dar got his rematch and despite it being a face on face match it still got an 87 rating which was the second best match of the night following the main event. Kofi beat Noam with a fast roll up to keep both men looking strong coming out of the match.</p><p> </p><p> Since become the US Champion Neville has put on some really good matches but this is not one of them as himself and Xavier Woods had poor chemistry meaning their bout for the title got a very disappointing 76 which with chemistry could have been so much better but what can you do. At least it wasn't the Wrestlemania main event.</p><p> </p><p> Another match that really disappointed was the following match between Adam Cole of Balor Club vs AJ Styles which only got a 77 rating which shows that AJ is really starting to struggle due to his declining physical ability (I also may have dropped his pop from 90 to 77 due to him losing to Nick Jackson and Finn Balor in 2 nights). Anyway Finn has told AJ to go through all of Balor Club before he can get to him and first up he got a victory over the Andre the Giant Memorial winner Adam Cole.</p><p> </p><p> The semi main event paid off my trust in this match as Fred Yehi defeated The Miz in an 86 B+ match. The plan was for Miz to get a cheap victory first but he is going back to Hollywood soon again just 4 months after returning so he's getting jobbed out for 3 months until he goes and films Marine 10: Breaking Point.</p><p> </p><p> The main event was far greater than the rest of the card but what do you expect when it's Kevin Owens vs Sami Zayn. KO picked up the victory with a pop up powerbomb after a grueling 30 minute contest which delivered us a great 95 A* rating and made the show decent rather than lacklustre as it was looking to be.</p><p> </p><p> The show got a 92 A and it just shows how I can't wait until post Wrestlemania next year to redraft (as I plan on doing it every 2 years) because right now Smackdown is definitely the dominant brand.</p>

Well this is the second attempt at writing this because halfway through my laptop died . However this is Backlash 2019, 3 years after the start off my save. We started off with Noelle Foley defeated Charlotte in an 81 B after Charlotte turned on her friend and cost her the number one contendership to the Women's United States Championship but it backfired on her when Noelle Foley defeated her with a roll up. Next up Brock's jobbing continued when he lost to a regen by the name of Jerry Bowman who just returned from his 3rd MMA victory which Brock called him out on. Lesnar leaves in a week and his last act is to put over an Enhancement Talents who will hopefully gain a lot of pop from that. No Way Jose's dreadfull European Championship comes to an end when he is defeated by another regen by the name of Zeshin Ikoma who NXT seem to have a lot of faith in as he is a former 2 time NXT World Champion and tag team champion. Anyway he is already a midcarder and he beat a main eventer so he will get a big boost. In a throw away match Akira Tozawa defeated Jack Gallagher, Tony Nese and Aaron Clark Hunter (ACH) to retain his Light Heavyweight Title in an 83 rated match. That was followed up by Apollo Crews destroying Cole (Drew) Galloway in a 90 rated match. Basically after Apollo kayfabe injured Sandow at Wrestlemania he decided to take his anger out on former friend Galloway and he has put him through a table and announce table and because of this he was able to easily pick up the victory due to the injuries he caused. Post match his attack on Galloway was cut of by Jay Lethal returning from his Kayfabe injury after Apollo hurt him before Wrestlemania after he promised to help Sandow beat Apollo. That was followed up by Emma (Who turned face post Wrestlemania) retain her title in a 91 A against Queen Sasha by submission with an Emma Lock. Post match they were brawling when a member of the crowd came out and started skipping around the ring before leaving through the crowd again. That's right AJ Lee returned to WWE and she is going after the Women's US Championship. Next up we had the joint highest rated match when in a 99 A* rated match The Ultimate Connection retained their Intercontinental Tag Team Championships against The Wolf Pack who were just Interim champions. They will get another shot in the future but for now it's not their time to be the champions. A slightly disappointing match followed when in an 85 B+ rated match Bray Wyatt got his revenge on Harper when he threw Harper into an exposed turbuckle followed by a Sister Abigail and got the victory. This will finish at the next PPV before they both enter the MITB match and go into title pictures. The next match also got less than what it did at Wrestlemania but I'm assuming that it was because it was inside a steel cage. Anyway that match got a 92 A where Big Cass defeated Enzo Amore to win the Intercontinental Championship. They will have another match next month and I think Cass will win as Enzo will go into the MITB match. In the main event Cody Rhodes defeated Randy Orton to retain his WWE Championship in a 99 A* match. Once again the rating was boosted due to their good chemistry and I might have them go once more before we change up the title picture but I haven't decided yet. The show got a 98 A* which was really good. Payback is up next for Monday Night Raw

Hope this helps <img alt=":D" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

Well Wrestlemania 35 is in the books and for the second year in a row it gets a 100 A* which means I've now had 2 100 A* in 1 month. To start off on the pre show Adam Cole won the Andre the Giant Memorial Battle Royal with the finalists being Jack Swagger, Elgin and Solomon Crowe. I always like to start off with a killer of a match so we had the 6 woman ladder match for the Women's Championship between Peyton Royce, Naomi ©, Alexa Bliss, Charlotte, Nia Jax and Katarina Waters which scored us an 87. Peyton Royce may have been submitted on Raw a week before by Nia Jax for her first time pinned/submitted but post match her attack on Nia with a chair cae into her favour here as she and Nia were the last two in the ring and Peyton targeted the ribs before climbing the ladder and grabbing the championship. We then followed that up with a 79 as The Bloodline defeated The Revival and retained their titles. Simple match not much to talk about. Neville pushed on towards being the longest reigning US Champion after he easily dispatched of 50 year old William Regal in an 82 before they shook hands at the end of the match. I'm really struggling booking the Light Heavyweight division on SD right now with them really not getting higher on the card and not getting the rating with this triple threat between Akira Tozawa, Jack Gallagher and Tony Nese only scoring a 68 as Tozawa picked up the title with a german suplex. I said that I was thinking that No Way Jose was going to drop the title but after he defeated Berg for the 2nd time he was pushed as a main eventer so I decided to keep it on him for now as he defeated Berg for the 3rd and final time in an 80. The punishment of Brock Lesnar for botching a move and injuring Kurt Angle continued as he lost to Undertaker Jr. (yes that's a thing in my game, don't judge ok) in The Undertaker Memorial match. The match surprisingly got a 95 rating and with Brock's contract up in a month and the fact he drove 95 popularity Tanahashi out of the company by turning everyone against him means that this was his last ever match in the WWE. Whereas I struggle booking the Light Heavyweight Division, the Cruiserweight division is on fire and Johnny Gargano vs defeated Kenneth (Will) Ospreay in a 93 to retain his title. Ziima Xion and Tomasso Ciampa will debut on Raw tomorrow and immediately challenge Gargano for the title. Next up Eric Price defeated Triple H in a 79 rated match in Hell in a Cell and they ended up on top of the cage where Eric proceeded to Gutwrench Powerbomb Hunter through the top of the cage into the ring and picked up the victory. That was followed by another 79 rated match where Goldberg defeated Rhyno in an 8 minute match which showed that I shouldn't have brought Goldberg back lol. After that Luke Harper defeated King Wyatt in an 89 rated match which continues Harper's great push while now Wyatt will head into the title picture soon I think. Then in the middle of the card we had the joint match of the night when CM Punk defeated Chris Jericho in a 99 rated match due to them having great chemistry and therefore due to the stipulations Chris had a teary farewell with the crowd before in 20 days time he is going on another tour with Fozzy just this time he isn't coming back. Apollo Crews 97 match and 3 year unbeaten streak is finally over after he was defeated by Damien Sandow in an 89 where Sandow picked up the victory with Apollo's own Spin out Powerbomb. Post match Apollo went mad and put Sandow through the German Announce and Spanish announce table writing Sandow off screen until MITB. That was followed by my highest ever Women's match where Emma defeated Bayley and Queen Sasha in a freaking 98 A* rated match to become a 2 time Women's United States Champion. Sadly during the match Emma botched a move and Bayley suffered a Torn Trapezius which will keep her out for 3 months With Jericho already retiring the fans would go through more heartbreak after Roman Reigns defeated The Rock in a 95 rated match meaning that The Rock's career was finally over. This was followed up with a really emotional family moment with The Rock, Roman and all of the family embracing Rock in the ring as the fans screamed THANK YOU ROCK! It seemed to be the night of 95 rated matches as the next match between AJ and Finn got a 95 with Finn picking up the victory following interference from Andre the Giant Memorial winner Adam Cole who officially joined Balor Club. This now means AJ is 0-4 at Wrestlemania after losses against Chris Jericho, Nakamura ina triple threat with Punk, The Shield with Bulletproof and now Finn. As I said it was the night of 95 rated matches with The Ultimate Connection (Rey and Dolph) picking up the IC Tag Titles in a fatal 4 way tag match against The Wolf Pack, The DMG and American Alpha. Sadly we were one rating lower next when Kofi Kingston won the Global Championship in a triple threat with Shinsuke Nakamura and Noam Dar in a 94 rated match when he defeated Nakamura with a trouble in paradise. Next up Enzo Amore defeated Big Cass in a 99 A* rated match to retain his IC Title which really surprised me as they didn't even have a good or great chemistry it was just an exceptional match where Enzo stole the show with a 98 in ring performance. We followed that up with another 99 A* rated match where Cody Rhodes finally won the WWE Title when he defeated former Legacy Partner Randy Orton to pick up the belt. Good to know they have good chemistry as opponents so this rivalry is definitely not over but with Orton currently being a 14 time champ and Cena the 16 time champ still level with Flair I'm reluctant to give Randy any more world title runs. Actually I've had a great thought and in the next year Randy wins the title twice putting him on 16 and then at Wrestlemania next year we have Cena vs Orton, the winner gets the record but the loser has to retire. I actually might just do that Then the main event of Kevin Owens vs Sami Zayn, the 15 year rivalry and they finally get a WM main event and they delivered with a 97 A* rated match where Kevin Owens defeated Sami for the World Heavyweight Championship. However the major twist happened post match where we had a double turn, yes, a double turn where Owens offer Sami a handshake but Sami just low blowed him and left with the title to close Wrestlemania. Owens went in the much hated heel and Sami the much loved champion but they left in the others role. This will be interesting to book moving forwards. Anyway it was an extremely good show and I' already planning next year's event but I just can't top this one ratings wise so it'll be tough.
