<p>I'm noticing a severe lack of popular indy guys in the early 2000's. Granted MSW is #1 in the world seconded by OVW and Chikara. I decided to take the challenge once I hit 2002 to take over as head booker of Chikara and make them over. A couple of years later and now Sheamus O'Shaugnessy is the Chikara world champion. </p><p> </p><p> I did notice a lack of deathmatch guys once you hit the 2000s though. No Matt Tremont, Naptown Dragons (besides Drake), and even BRAIN DAMAGE! A lot of guys like former IWA MS world champions aren't in so there's no we can recreate Tarek the Great's reign as IWA MS champion or Brain Damage's awesome Iron Man title run in CZW. </p><p> </p><p> There's also a lack of major BJW stars as well. It's tough seeing Kenzo Suzuki headlining BJW's cards while Jaki Numazawa and Ryuji Ito are absent from the game entirely. Where's Jun Kasai to connect the CZW and BJW fans? You have Daisuke Sekimoto but not his legendary rival and now 8 time champion Ryuji Ito.</p><p> </p><p> I've been trying to find ways to work these people in so i'm not disappointed when I can't bring Nate Webb to sing Teenage Dirtbag every Thursday night on UPN. It's not really a complaint just a warning that once you hit the early 2000s the game starts to fade in proper new workers unless they've worked for the E before.</p>

<p>I'm playing the 1985 database, and I notice by January 1986 ASWA, UWF (Japan), CWA (Memphis), and even Mid South Wrestling have all closed due to bankruptcy. </p><p> </p><p> Already GLOW is suffering financial issues despite debuting in December of 85. ECWA, WWA, and EMLL have all had news stories about being in debt and on the verge of closing.</p><p> </p><p> Is this just the mod having too many companies? is this just how the gameplay is supposed to be? or Am I just too awesome of a company for them to compete with me? (that last one was a joke i'm only at small size in the tri-state untouched by territorial wars)</p>

Tri-State Wrestling Alliance [New Company] Database: Risky Business [beta] Start Date: Jan. 1985 Current date:Jun. 1985 TWA HeavyweightRick Steiner Stole him from AWA once I hit small size and pushed him over my starting champion Leatherface at my season finale. TWA Tag TeamThe Legionairres (Armand Rougeau & Tony Stetson) made it a personal challenge to take these two nobodies and make them into something big. Between momentum hits and working a feud with Dean and Joe Malenko, they've progressed really far really fast. Didn't go as planned though and am thinking of having them drop the straps back to the Malenkos TWA Women'sMadusa Micelli I'm just an Alundra Blayze mark and she's pretty much on a female goldberg run. Only female actually signed as i have a women's division. I just put her over "Hire Local" talent if there's a female in the area. Linda Dallas is a regular at my shows so I might hire her as she and Madusa have had an unintentional blood feud C8 CupRick Steiner Basically my KotR where the winner gets a world title shot. He won it 2 days after I snubbed him from AWA in order to get him some momentum going into the season finale

Do the loading screen colors mean anything? It seems every few times I advance the time, the screen will be green, blue, or red. Maybe it's just a coincidence, but it seems to be red whenever i seem to not be doing as well. But I've only noticed this for a week in-game now so it probably is a coincidence.
