Fans Hate a Wrestler

[Bigpapa42]

I'm pretty sure I've seen this question answered on here more than once, but my searches turn up nothing. So I"m asking again. I'm playing as SWF. I have two workers that the fans hate on - Big Smack Scott and Brett Biggz. BSS I can understand - he's garbage in the ring. But Biggz isn't. I have no real idea why the fans hate him, beyond maybe the spot monkey style. Both have decent popularity and pretty good momentum. The fan hate drags down any match they are in, though. Makes it tough to give them any sort of push (which is ruining some plans I had). So... is there any solution? I've considered trying to send BSS down to development to try to get a smidgen of skill but Biggz is already decent. Will the fans eventually get over it or am I stuck with the hate?

My main suggestion is to persevere in regards to Brett Biggz, feeding a wrestler down the fans throats will piss the fans off but Brett will improve through a forced push.

The only solution is to get them better in the ring. While Brett isn't terrible, he has a couple of performance stats which are a bit low. I used him consistently in SWF when I started, and about three or four months in the fans stopped booing him. As for BSS... I supposse you could ship up over to RIPW for a few months, though I doubt he'll appreciate it.

[Bigpapa42]

Doesn't seem to be a lot that BSS does appreciate. I'm really tempted just to dump him after his second or third positive roid test in this game, which means about a month in. But I was kinda hoping to keep him around, just for the challenge. Yeah, he's a locker room cancer but I've got enough locker room leaders that it should offset. I've seen SWF give Pain Alliance a tag title run pretty early and I was thinking of doing the same, but with the fan hate, I'm so sure it would backfire bad on me.

I just dumped Big Smack Scott after a few jobs. As for Brett I sent him and his brother down to RIPW. Even if they claim they won't improve, they will and at a much faster rate depending on who they have to work with.

Well Bart is already a realy competent wrestler its Brett that needs the better performance skills. The fans are hating on them because their basics aren´t good enough so send em to dev or have em face wrestlers with good performance stats so that they learn. Do this in dark time or short matches early in the card. Once the fans stop booing them you can start a push.

I hate getting that road agent note. They way I see it, if I am a SE style promotion, the fans should pretty much accept anyone. I am trying to push Nightmare in 21CW and the crowd gets mad everytime. I see him as a Khali type character and he should get over on his size and menace alone. I even have a good young wrestler who is considered one of my hot prospects that the fans boo. So I am just dealing with it and hoping it eventually goes away.

Ahhh, the fan hating on a wrestler. I personally love it. My solution? In my SWF Diary game I tend to use the Biggz Boyz in a lot of Dark Matches trying to get his skills more up to par, whereas with Big Smack Scott I dont mind, I continue to push him, and use him however I see fit. Bottom line is, he's a heel. So they can boo seeing him in the ring all they want.

[Hyde Hill]

Ehm that version of booing is not heel heat it lowers the match grade.

[QUOTE=Hyde Hill;476234]Ehm that version of booing is not heel heat it lowers the match grade.[/QUOTE] I realise that, but its not a super significant penalty and besides BSS was never going to put on stellar segments anyway. I look at it this way, did it stop WWF from giving us X Pac all those years? or Vickie at the beginning? Or Adamle right now? No, and rightfully so. The bottom line is hate is hate. I know as far as game mechanics go its different but i choose to ignore that.

[Mr T Jobs To Me]

Alright, it's official. BSS needs to marry an un-named Eisen daughter so you bastards have to use him the way he deserves to be used in the next update. Richard Eisen and Enygma as friends? I don't buy that for a minute anyway. Get rid of that, Enygma's been the most boring and crappy Main Eventer in the history of the CornellVerse for 4 years running. Send him the way of Jillefski.

[Karl_Kitsch]

You know, I like Adamle. His pseudo-Colbert act is pretty entertaining. Combined with Santino's Fez from That 70's show gimmick, I think Vince finally got cable.
