Comparing wrestler popularity to promotion popularity


Recommended Posts

In my current game, I've been keeping a close eye on various wrestlers with a view to signing them up as I rise - no different to anyone else, I'm sure. What I'm struggling with is aligning a worker's status (Independent Star, Relative Unknown etc.) with what size company he'll sign for. I know that the labels can cover a pretty wide range of popularity, and a worker may be over enough in other regions to tip his decision against me... But I'm also wondering how I've managed to get one Bumfhole (Randy, 2k per) and not the other (Zimmy, 900 per on trade to CGC - and why'd he sign with them and not me). Presumably worker personalities play into it to an extent, but is there a ready corrolation between a worker's 'rating' (for want of a better word) and the size of company he will work for?

Some of it depends on the attitude of the worker. I know at Regional I have managed to signed people with C popularity, and at Cult I've sometimes had people with B popularity actually sign or resign, while others will tell you that you're not big enough for em. I THINK at Small the best you can get is D+ish people to sign up.

It definitely depends on the worker. I started a local promotion with 0 popularity everywhere and 0 prestige, yet I was able to hire Grandmaster Phunk who had C- popularity everywhere in the U.S. (except HI & PR where he was D+). Other workers with less popularity turned me down, so there's more to the decision than worker popularity and company size.
