<p>Tamina Snuka is now dating Sami Zayn.</p><p> </p><p>
Baron Corbin put Cena on the shelf for a month.</p><p> </p><p>
Sasha was set to return in about a month. I had her undergo a surgery to get her back quicker. She's now out for over a year.</p>

<p>It's currently December 2025.</p><p> </p><p>
I have around $1.2 in the bank, and my little regional touring company is posting profits even while on tour, which has been nice.</p><p> </p><p>
And I just hired a retired Tommy Cornell to be my Road Agent, as BHOTWG snaked yet another talent. I've size-locked myself at Regional, building up funds before jumping to Cult, although I can't remember what the ballpark figure was that was going around.</p><p> </p><p>
Hoping my UC breaks the top 100 in the Power 500 next month. Currently ranked at 196.</p>

Darin Flynn must be killing it with that product setting. He's a favourite of mine since he made it to the Hall of Immortals in a 2010 game I had. Isn't the Ab Snowman terrible for a performance Product though?
Yeah, Flynn was primed to be a perennial all-star in ELPF, until 21CW decided to sign him to a Written contract
The Snowman is actually on par with everyone else, as far as average match rating goes. Had a long stint as World Champion.
End of Year Three, and I posted small profits in September and November, so we're steadily getting there. If I quit using Auto Booker so much and kept my cards at 3 segments, I'd probably be turning a monthly profit. Failed a critical "Don't fall below x in the company rankings" goal and it sunk my approval rating to Low.
Yearly roll got me 22. “Link To The Past” You have devoted your holiday season to training in the ring +5 to your Chain Wrestling skill. Always nice to improve my technical skills. Stats are now:

And for worker deaths, we've got:
Fumihiko Uno, age 63
BOSS Kotoku, age 47
Crippler Ray Kingman, age 71
Larry Vessey, age 59
Dick The Devastator, age 73
Ed Monton, age 56
Munenori Umari, exploded, 42.
Year Four Goals:
Get to Regional and snag a PPV deal for my events?
Jump ship again?
It's anyone's guess.

Finished Year Two. Updated stats:

My Yearly Roll was another 29. “So, Tell Me About Your Mother…”You have devoted your holiday season to training in the ring +5 to your Psychology skill.
My original promotion, SWA, went bankrupt in June 2017. At least I wasn't at the helm
Still Small, still losing money monthly. Economy is D and falling, Industry is C and falling. 223k in the bank, currently ranked 40th. After 13 defenses, The Yeti took the World Title from me and I slid down to midcard.
Only one worker death since the last update.
Juzo Komagata, fell from a 20th story window, 21.
Year Three Goals
Start turning a profit?

<p>No, it was just 1-2k per month. I can occasionally overreact a bit <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p>

Officially joining an RTG Challenge for the first time. Discovered TEW 2013 back in January. Didn't know I was missing a booking simulator from my life until I found it. Bankrupted my starting company four times so far. This is attempt #5, waited about 17 months before starting this post to make sure I could hopefully keep this running.
These are Big Smoke's starting stats:

This was Saskatchewan Wrestling Association's starting Product (formerly Southern Wrestling Association, switched to Canada and kept the logo):

And these are Big Smoke's stats, current as of 5-17 in-game:

Now for the basic rundown:
Started SWA, hired 98% Canadian workers. Got Marvin Earnest as my owner, so free announcer. Yay? Immediately went into debt, running three shows per month, all in week one. SWA Redesign, SWA Rebuild, SWA Reclaim. Clever, eh? Economy was like C and Rising, Industry was B and Falling. I was able to rush to Small and, luckily for me, Yoshifusa Maeda died, and I finally had a Booker Application accepted for BCG (Regional). This was mid-late April, I believe. BHOTWG made short work of my roster, signing all of our stars to Writtens, which is apparently the norm. Big Smoke had his best match in BCG, though:
Big Smoke (Black Canvas Grappling - Regional)
Game Date: May 2017
Best UC Match so far: B- : Sofu Ozawa & American Patriot def. Big Smoke & Rokuemon Matsushita (June 2016)
We had the Tsunami kill the economy/industry shortly after I got there, so all of the good stuff quickly dissipated. It was also my first time running a touring/Japanese company, but I really wanted to jump ship before I inevitably bankrupted them. In my previous four saves, I applied for every booking position just to see if I could get them. I never could.
So there we are, about 250k in the bank, losing 1-2k/month. I'm enjoying it, but panicking, so when ELPF (Local) is founded and looking for a Booker, I jumped on it. I'm assuming downgrading two levels isn't against the RTG rules, but feel free to let me know if I'm wrong. This was my first time running a European company as well, and I had to hire a roster again. The new year came around, and I rolled:
29. “So, Tell Me About Your Mother…”You have devoted your holiday season to training in the ring +5 to your Psychology skill.
I just recently made it to Small, and Production Values are coming into play. I'm trying to balance maintaining my barely 11 popularity against how many shows/workers I can run with Economy C and Falling, and Industry C and Rising.
If anyone has any tips and/or feedback, I'd love to hear it. Looking forward to being a part of RTG for a long time to come. (I just spent an hour typing up a post instead of actually playing. Go figure.)
EDIT: Worker Deaths seem notable, so I'll include those in updates as well. Here's what we have so far:
Uppercut Bailey, struck by lightning, twice, in quick succession, 47 years old
Yoshifusa Maeda, age 62
Whippy the Clown, age 41
SUKI, gardening accident, age 30
Trehawke Phillips, age 42
Seiko Nanami, age 47
Dinny Rantall, age 58
Shunko Nakada, exploded, age 56
Frenchie Marcel, age 75
Jean-Pierre Baptiste, age 72
Jackson Andrews, age 76

<p>So, after spending a large chunk of time away from the game, I decided to forego my 10 year save from Japan in favor of starting up a new Local to Global Road to Glory. Touring every other month, with a weekly tour show followed by a finale at the end of every tour month where the title matches happen.</p><p> </p><p>
The first was supposed to be my UC going over Sterling Whitlock for the World championship. I run the show, get to the match and immediately notice that we both injured each other with a botched move. He sprained his ankle (6 days) while I tore my rotator cuff (1 year). This is the first time I've seen the match description say "Due to injury, an audible was called" so that was pretty neat.</p><p> </p><p>
Performing surgery cut down my recovery time to 7 months, which is a relief, and now I've got a custom-made feud ready to go upon my return.</p>
