gazwefc83 Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 OK some of you may be familiar with this mod but for those of you that arn't here goes. [B]The Run Down[/B] The year is 1989 and the month is September, The WWF have just held yet another exciting PPV in the name of SummerSlam, The Ultimate Warrior is on the rise having just recaptured the IC Title from Rick Rude, Arn Anderson & Tully Blanchard are the Tag Team champions and succesfully defeated the Hart Foundation in a none title match, Whilst WWF World champion Hulk Hogan continues an on going battle with the Mad Man Zeus. In other Promotions Ric Flair is still NWA world heavyweight Champion and currently fueding with the Heel Terry Funk, What looks to be an excellent prospect for the future Lex Luger is currently the NWA United States Champion. Over in the AWA there is some good talent with the likes of Sgt. Slaughter, Larry Zybysko, Baby Bull (Leon White, Vader), Mike Enos and Wayne Bloom. Other smaller promotions are currently housing some very good but yet unkown young talent such as Steve Austin, Jeff Jarret, Scott Hall, Chris Beniot, Owen Hart etc All in all the future of Pro Wrestling looks bright and with alot of Men & Women trying to break into the business Wrestling has never been more exciting Here is the Test version try it out and let me know how it runs [URL="http://www.northwestrchelicopterclub.co.uk/1989.rar"]Data Files Only for now[/URL] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SasoreGatame Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 Flair headlined a majority of the Starrcade events from 83-88. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazwefc83 Posted May 29, 2008 Author Share Posted May 29, 2008 from the discussion iv had so far in the hall of immortals thread people seem to think that by 1989 the only major events were WrestleMania but i may change that to Starrcade events also that that would make Flair on 5 out of a possible 6 Starrcade events Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D. Boons Ghost Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 If you actually did some research, you'll find quite a few major cards in the 70s. If the first Starrcade is in (which drew 15,000), why not the Last Tangle in Tampa in 1980 (which drew almost 18,000)? Or the Showdown at Shea Stadium in 1972 (which drew 22,000!)? Or the Shea Stadium shows in '76 and '80 (which drew 32,000 & 36,000 respectively)? Seriously. For a mod that starts in the last days of kayfabe-era wrestling, it would be nice if you thought outside of the modern slanted box that traps all discussions around here. It is your mod - your data; it is whatever you say it is. Just trying to throw some light onto this particular discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazwefc83 Posted May 30, 2008 Author Share Posted May 30, 2008 I had done alot of research but came to ask myself what makes an event historic? Is it that it had large attendance records? Is it that it was one hell of a show? Or is it that it is by name sake a 'legendary' event. So here is why i originally decided to go with just Starrcades and Wrestlemania's beacuse by the time most of these guys retire and enter the HOI it would be a nowdays mod so to speak. But in all truth i just wanted some feedback on who you guys (the guys who will play this mod) wanted in and why, Its a flaw of mine i always try to keep everybody happy :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazwefc83 Posted May 30, 2008 Author Share Posted May 30, 2008 Just a quick one some of you maybe hapy to learn that last night i sat down and went through the pic pac of over 2500 pics and cut it down massively to just over 900, bobinc had mentioned to me along time ago that there was alot of duplicates and needless pics but i didnt want to do it right away because i was constantly adding more and more workers and didnt know who i was going to add next, but its done now so quicker downloading times is always a plus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazwefc83 Posted May 30, 2008 Author Share Posted May 30, 2008 I seem to have ran into a brick wall! I cannot not find any more information to increase the size of this mod! If anyone knows of any more promotions and rosters please post them here. So what i am doing instead of sitting around feeling sorry for myself is adding more alter egos, hall of immortal entries and workers habbits if i dont get any more feedback on workers and promotions i will start making more movesets for the alter egos of workers I really want to make this mod great for you guys so please help by posting as much info say you guys know to help me help you!

Just trying to throw some light onto this particular discussion.[/QUOTE] So much information right here.... for your history (which should include most if not all of this). Also it's kind of hard to contribute, when you have not listed, or linked to a list of what you have already. WE see number's, but which one's are actually in it? You included Flair and Rhodes, but not Piper, Curt Hennig, Bret Hart, Davey Boy Smith, Tom Billington, Satoru Sayama, Antonio Inoki, Kim Sin-nak. Depending on the time frame, possibly some of those would fit in your HOI. More information is needed before anyone can even guess where you need the help.

Iv googled everything i can think of[/QUOTE] That will give a better idea of how to help. What if you have everything already that someone were to suggest? Can't really tell you what to google without any knowledge of what you already have google'd (for example). The only thing I can comment on is your HOI so far. There were huge stars that were around before Flair or Rhodes..> what about the people they emulated for example. Without knowing if your going to include any of them, it's hard to say who is left out, but I aggree that there was plenty going on besides NWA supercards, historically, as was brought up by the expert.

HugeRockStar760 Posted May 31, 2008 Share Posted May 31, 2008 It's too bad you didn't have the mod start in late 1988. The reason why is because 1989 was a great year for the NWA. Instead, the mod starts too late in the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazwefc83 Posted June 3, 2008 Author Share Posted June 3, 2008 so anybody see any guys that are missing? im certian there will be loads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maskedpropaganda Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 I have no wrestlers persay as I see that are missing (though like you I am sure there are just feels like there is) but I was wondering if ya can give us a run down of the roster PER promotion. I would like to see what the USWA roster consists for example. I would go per promotion and then google it with the year to see the roster available at that timeframe then go from there to adding those that you are missing. Of course ya don't want to overload it with workers but I think between USWA, Texas, NWA there are men well known enough to be included that have been overlooked. Like i dunno Scott Casey um, Brad Armstrong ah, Islander Tama, etc. Just seems that a few names I remember seeing each and every week not mentioned yet many men that debut ya know 10 years later that of course were remembered. I think this could be an excellent MOD just take ya time man and don't rush it!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SasoreGatame Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 Which of these following shows do you guys think are A or B Shows WWF Superstars, Primetime Wrestling, Wrestling Challange Superstars/Challenge should be the 'B' shows, although what was shown on them was later combined to what was on PTW. NWA Power Hour, World Championship Wrestling Power Hour is a B Show. World Championship Wrestling (later on Saturday Night), was always the A Show. And KENTA's name is Kenta Kobayashi...not KENTA Kobashi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
