Damn, the Lightweight GP looks STACKED!! Also, how did you manage to convince Fedor to compete in the heavyweight GP when his brother is also competing? Wouldn't it lead to a conflict of interest? Anyways, that card was pretty good! A lot of fights went the distance, but overall, some solid grappling action! And gono getting KO by hornbuckle really was a surprise!

PRIDE FC!!! I always considered DREAM and RIZIN to be the canon continuation of PRIDE, since it's the same promoters behind it who fpunded those orgs. Finally, we can have an official continuation of the promotion! Wonder how you'll do without the big heavyweight and middleweight stars. Sure, you still have fedor, barnett and kharitonov, but other than those guys, the division seems pretty weak. The lighter weight divisions are definitely your strongest.

To this day, i still don't understand why CHIKARA even thought that this stupid shutdown angle was a good idea in the first place. It was never a good idea, it only made things more confusing and frustrating. I'm sorry, but the people behind CHIKARA are dumbasses masquerading as Subversive geniuses.

Match one: dustin Match 2: vader keeps on beasting Match 3: sid vicious, though i never had a high opinion of him. Match 4: Pillman's been killing it, he's definitely earned a strong push, so yeah, pillman wins. Match 5: the horsemen wins, so as to keep them dominant, but scott hall doesn't get pinned, making him look strong. Match 6: luger, since stan the man is not full time with the comapny, despite me loving him way more than lexy. Match Seven: this one is gonna be tough, since it all depends on the results of the main event. Hnestly, i think ricky steamboat will win, which leads to... Main event: Sting wins the title. That's right, sting vs steamboat, the dream match that we never got! (At least, accoridng to my knowledge.) You could develop a storyline where nobody really knows who to cheer for, using the face vs face oddity to tell a morally grey story. Dont worry about the booking penlaties, that story is too interesting not to be told! Man,i wish TEW would have an option to book morally grey characters and stprylines...

<p>tje league table concept is perfect, as it allows us (and you) to make up storylines and push some wrestlers depending on their standing and current performances.</p><p> </p><p> as for owen, yeah, he and pillman would be the perfect guys to build the cruiserweight division around, add in other guys and you'll have your workhorse division all set up!</p>

great show, man! you seem to know your stuff when it comes to booking, cause i really like what you're setting up so far! i'd like to give you some suggestions, if you don't mind: -I do hope you sign the harts. the timing would be perfect, too, as bret was stuck in the midcard and owen was in NJPW, i believe. same with davey boy and neidhart. -speaking of perfect, curt hennig would be a perfect signing, too (pun intended)! macho man randy savage, too. as for tag teams, terry gordy and steve williams as well as the fantastics would be good additions. -do you plan on having a cruiserweight division? cause most of the cruiserweights (benoit, the malenkos, jerry lynn, waltman, etc...) were available. the only problem is that they're not over, but yeah, could be a good idea. especially since you got pillman to build it around. all in all, keep up the good work!

<p>sounds good! i haven't bought TEW2020 Yet, and, judging by the demo, i think i'm gonna play BCG when i buy it. both for the product and the very solid roster.</p><p> </p><p> please, some more in depth info of the wrestlers. i want to know what to do with them once i buy the game.</p>

or maybe you can have a storyline where Desmond and Mick foley tries to find out why Dr. Stevie stabbed angle and, when heyman arrives, the big reveal would be that Stevie was taking orders from somebody and it would be either heyman himself or perhaps Raven, the motive being revenge because angle refused to sign with ECW due to the crucifixion angle.

really good! I might be repeating my YouTube comment here, but honestly, keep lashley around. I feel he can be a big asset in the future

one of the great what ifs in wrestling history...hope WCW will thrive now that Hogan is gone. you definitely got the future stars to do just that! hope that Kevin Nash doesn't come nowhere near WCW, too!

<p>the unnatural.</p><p> </p><p> Austin. him vs unnatural would be dope!</p><p> </p><p> true heroes</p><p> </p><p> RVD</p><p> </p><p> Brian Kendrick</p><p> </p><p> Kaz hayashi. it actually would be an interesting twist, and it would show just how broken the former empire members are. also, cause dragons finally have their chance!</p><p> </p><p> dangerous alliance</p><p> </p><p> Calgary bulldogs</p><p> </p><p> match of the night? Austin vs Rey</p><p> </p><p> title changes? 1</p><p> </p><p> new WCW President? OOOOOOOHH YEEEEAAAAHHH!!!</p><p> </p><p> next women's champ? meiko satomura</p>

<p>Congratulations, franticloser! hope you're feeling much better now!</p><p> </p><p> as for the national battles, it's still as tight as ever! though one thing i'd like to see in TEW2020 is that I don't think foreign companies should have an impact in the Japan national battles. cause, frankly, IRL, I don't think Japanese wrestling fans really gives a damn about any foreign companies. Mexicans and british might care about WWE, maybe, but not Japan.</p>

man, I'm rereading the entire 2003 year of this dynasty, and I'm reminded of so many things I completely forgot about, like the Jung dragons. speaking of which, what's going on right now for guys like samoa joe, the Jung dragons, ROH, TNA home of mantaur, and wondering if dragon gate's gonna exist to fill the void left by michinoku pro.

<p>Jeff hardy. make yourself famous kid!</p><p> </p><p> Austin</p><p> </p><p> Rey</p><p> </p><p> true heroes</p><p> </p><p> Amdrag vs RVD: draw via count-out due to highlight reel high spot from RVD</p><p> </p><p> o'haire. styles thinks he'll get him like last time with his high-flying, but o'haire will show he's smarter than the average big man, scouting his moves and countering his high-flying with underhanded blows and piwer moves on styles's legs.</p><p> </p><p> KNOBLEMANIA'S RUNNING WILD, RASCALS!!</p><p> </p><p> Matt hardy vs daniels: flipped a coin, fell on daniels</p><p> </p><p> TAKA</p><p> </p><p> sting's squadron</p><p> </p><p> the great sasuke. cause sasuke refuses to job to puny gaijins, even in gaijin land!</p><p> </p><p> match of the night? Austin vs Goldberg</p><p> </p><p> title changes: 4</p><p> </p><p> how long is the main event? 28:46</p>

<p>wow! a comeback even more unexpected than tiger woods!</p><p> </p><p> welcome back TFC. now, it's time to finish the job at Greensboro!</p>

<p>Usually, I don't want to get involved in any talk about why somebody is leaving or stopping something they were doing because, well, it's none of my business.</p><p> </p><p> ...but after reading what will happen to mods and how the developers acted... now I see why you're thinking of stopping.</p><p> </p><p> And I thought small, Indy games are immune to idiotic BS like this...</p><p> </p><p> Man, first, two best friends play ends, now TEW potentially dying because the developers are scumbags...</p><p> </p><p> This is the worst Christmas ever!</p><p> </p><p> On another note, I really, really hope you at least finish with starrcade before leaving the forums. A story is nothing without it's ending. I really enjoyed this diary, and I hope it finishes with a bang!</p>

<p>YASSS!!! ALMOST PERFECT SCORE!!!</p><p> </p><p> well, ok, that card was easy to predict, but still, WOOHOO!! I love Sean o'haire in this, he's finally fulfilling his potential! Him, the dragons and KNOBLEMANIA are who I'm pushing now! They're my Bois!</p>

<p>OMG the future is saved! Hope that benoit then temporarily retires and goes to rehab and see a psychologist.</p><p> </p><p> Who knows, maybe the impossible will happen and he'd go to WCW?</p>

Jeff vs o'haire: logically, I would select Jeff, but I'm gonna throw a wild swing...nah, Jeff will win. Unnatural. Easy peasy title defense for the champ Rey. KNOBLEMANIA's taking a break for this one, ol' rascal (I dunno what could be a redneck version of "brother XD) Unbound. The dragons are gonna dethrone them at starrcade, Mark my words! Matt hardy Chavito, but Kendrick looks good in the process. Paul London might interfere there. The dangerous alliance. Sometimes, I hate this game, cause punk and Danielson not having chemistry is just wrong on so many levels! AJ Match of the night? Rey vs knoble. Jeff doesn't have the psychology to pull off a match of the night IMO. No title changes Goldberg accepts piper's invitation, but before he could talk, Austin comes from underneath the ring and attacks him,but corino also appears from underneath the ring and blocks him, ONLY FOR THE SHOCKMASTER TO RISE FROM HIS GRAVE AND SHOCK EVERYONE AND HIS MOTHER!! In short, yes.

WOOHOO!! TFC IS BACK!! Man, I didn't expect Eddie to lose. The heel turn was somewhat expected, as Eddie has always been better as the lying, cheating, stealing heel he usually is. Hayabusa for cruiserweight champ or I riot! Matt as TV champ? Alright! Mattitude might be coming! Wonder what you're gonna do with Shane... By the way, how's your dev Fed going? Any words on Samoa joe in michinoku pro? Is dragon gate gonna exists, either via editor or naturally? Dragons will reign, just you wait! KNOBLEMANIA WILL BOUNCE BACK!! It's inevitable! Can't wait for the next post! BTW, you should check out wrestle-1. They have lots of good young talent, and they post weekly videos on youtube

<p>Don't worry, TFC, we'll make sure this diary doesn't get bumped! It's too good to be left alone!</p><p> </p><p> On another note, I think you should keep a close eye on Austin Aries. What he did at bound for glory was simply irredeemable! Not even Hogan would ruin a match like that! WTF happened to the Aries I knew from ROH?</p>
