"Remo is just Eisen trying to recreate Steve Frehley!"
"Why couldn't they just call him 'Atom Smasher' like he was known in the Indies?"

Took home Wrestler, Tag Team, Company, Match, Show, Young Wrestler, Veteran Wrestler, Female Wrestler, and Referee of the year awards and the Power 500 featured 9 of my workers in the top 10, including numbers 1-8. Had my first match rated 100 in 4 years, and the followed it up by getting 4 more matches rated at 100. Also had 2 shows get overall ratings of 100 back to back(as parts of a 3 day tournament nonetheless, that felt good). Managed to get a title on KC Glenn, who I've been building up for a bit now and set up El Mitico Jr to win his first world title at Malice in Wonderland. Overall I'm very, very happy with how things are going right now. Starting to lose some of my old guard like Sammy Bach, Bryan Vessey, and Sean McFly but I feel really good about the guys I have waiting in the wings to replace them.

If you want a big hoss from the Northeast, then I have 3 words for you- Bam Bam Bigelow.
-
Personally, for companies with women's divisions, I'd like to see an option in the Assistant Booker for mixed tag matches.
-
If you look on the Employment History of a character's profile, it will tell you what other, if any, commentators they have experience with.
-
So, I started a new game, and only 3 Time Declines on the starting roster- RDJ, Joel Bryant, & Giant Tana. Hired Marat Khoklov, and he is not in Time Decline. And Eddie Peak took on Killer Shark as a protege. Never seen that happen before, but I'll take it! As a bonus, the Wrestling Industry in the U.S. is at 74 and rising. Not a bad start!

Thinking about it more, I expect AAA's roster to be radically different. Even assuming that no one moves on to USPW or NOTBPW, there are quite a few people who will either have retired or are getting ready to. Heck, in 2016, the wrestlers who might hang it up in the first year include J-Ro, Cherry Bomb, Suzanne Brazzle, Demelza Wade, Jessica Bunny, and Steffi Chee. By 2020, others who will have reached that age include Ellie May Walton, Devil's Daughter, and Steph Blake. That's nearly a third of the starting 2016 roster.

<p>Playing a Thunderverse POW game. I hired, among others, Daisy Lee, who is now dating... El Hot Dog.</p><p> </p><p>

<p>I've been getting back into the T-verse the past few weeks and I have some questions...</p><p> </p><p>
1) Who are some mentor/ protege candidates? On the mentor side, I've seen Ebony, June Black, Dama Estrella, and Shay Kinsella pick up people, but who else?</p><p> </p><p>
2) Who are some good hires for The Club?</p>

More likely, his pop is too low. People care more when it's Matt and Jeff Hardy getting destroyed by Lars Sullivan than, say, the Lucha House Party.
-
Not positive, but I'm fair sure Eve has at least a C+ Sex Appeal rating, which is usually good enough for Eye Candy matches.
-
In QAW, to be specific.
-
Yeah, I don't see that either. Even if Champagne Lover goes full time movie making, SOTBPW has plenty of talented guys with Star Quality to pick up the slack (Velocidad immediately comes to mind).
-
As someone who uses the auto booker quite a bit, I'm very much looking forward to the new AI system.

I'd like to see WINNOW finally debut, but it'll be tough with Fuyuko Higa lighting up the wrestling world when she becomes one of the best wrestlers (men or women) in the world. Her loyalty to 5SSW could see them really stand a chance at rising to cult, since the insanely talented loyal roster will look to really show what they can do, provided the tsunami didn't hurt them too badly.
Higa isn't loyal to 5SSW. While it doesn't happen frequently, she will absolutely jump at written offers from USPW or NOTBPW.
Anyway, WINNOW will be fine. Remember, both companies are part of the Modern Japan Movement, so WINNOW can just borrow whatever talent they need. (Though if they have the same starting funds they do in 2016, that will get very expensive very quickly.)

<p>The two main things I wouldn't mind seeing-</p><p> </p><p>
Being able to search via alter ego details. "I need a masked wrestler; anyone I'm missing...?"</p><p> </p><p>
Buying/ reviving companies after the fact. For instance, if SOTBPW wants to buy the MPWF titles, there's currently no problem. If they wanted to buy them and start them as a new brand (with their old show) or a developmental company, that's much more difficult.</p>

Anyone got any suggestions for the pairing of Capitao Brasil Jr and Sabra Man Jr in SOTBPW?
-
<p>Doing a SOTBPW save. July 2016, and we scored Company Of The Year So Far, Show Of The Year So Far (the June installment of a monthly 3 v 3 event) and Young Wrestler of the Year So Far (Jormugand).</p><p> </p><p>
Leading up to Luchamania, I'll have Pirata Malvado vs Campeonato Del Mundo Pablo Rodriguez, and Champagne Lover, Campeon Jr, El Fuerza, El Leon, and Ultimate Phoenix vs. The Infernal Horde (minus El Rey & Heavy Metal Anarchy) in a (ideally) a modified version of the Cage War match (not Brawl Based, with 2 out of 3 falls once all the competitors are inside).</p><p> </p><p>
Oh, and I forgot to mention that Champagne Lover is going to make a movie; THANKFULLY production is scheduled to start AFTER LuchaMania. Thank the Lord. I've had a few instances where someone goes off to make a movie and it's right before where the perfect blow-off to a long running feud would be.</p>
Help me name my women's division
