Would this save loading times?

I dunno about anyone else... but I don't see a real reason to be able to see every match a wrestler has done their entire careers. For a company... that's cool cause I'm sure most wrestling companies keep track of that stuff. The only wrestler I've ever heard of keeping track of his own matches was Chris Jericho... he wrote in his book that he had them all down to early 2000. But I mean what purpose does it really serve other than being a hindrance for loading times? But I recall Adam saying a long time ago that the more info that the game has to save, the more time it takes to load. So instead of saving every match every wrestler has ever competed in, why not just save a year's worth and then have a permanent separate box that has their average match value and highest rated? Cause as much as some people like it... you have some wrestler running over 50 matches a year that you'll probably never even look at their profiles, and all this info is being saved and stored.

Previous matches aren't active data, they're passive, as it's only referenced if it's specifically asked for, such as when viewing histories.

Esp if you're running multiple cards a week or using a person more than once or twice on a card (which many people seem to do) Granted the file I'm using is T-Zone, but I'm only 4 years in and my save is like 250 megs. Imagine if it was a multiplayer save. Now imagine trying to share that.

What I'd like to see in the match histories is whether the match was a dark match or on the main show - cos my dark matches are just testing pairings out in general - so they "didn't happen" :D - and I'd like to be able to know that without having to check the show they happened on as well.
