Four Corners of Chaos

[Rick Savant]

Ha. I think you'll be fine with that heat. Makes my Rey/Cesar Barron heat look like something else that is the color of it's letter grade...

Oh no. I know. One of the difficulties of multiplayer is that it's hard to get right on top of those things...

[Hive]

Woah, strong card for WWF In Your House! I smell an 'A' brewing...

 

Looking back, maybe I should have focused less on tag teams and more on getting some popular single stars - like WWF. Their tag division is a disgrace (just the way Vince likes it), but that doesn't really seem to be much of an issue for them.

 

Having Roddy Piper in the 4th out of 9 matches and Yokozuna in the 2nd match just screams "we're loaded with overness!". And Sid isn't even on the card...

IRS & Charles Wright....Tommy Rich & Dirty White Boy...Team Package?!? Quite possibly the single greatest collection of tag teams in the history of wrest....uhm 'Sports Entertainment'

 

 

 

I'm afraid the Flair & Roberts match will be a dud...Roberts is struggling because a) low momentum...b) poor gimmick (Loose Cannon)...c) he's only a C+ I think as a face...and d) Drugs. If he weren't one of my all time favorites he very well might be on the 'future endeavors' list by now. And Sid isn't on the card, but that doesn't mean he won't be there!

Of the 'teams' listed, only Team Package boasts something special. And from what I gather, they are nothing more than an occational team.

 

Surely, they cannot compare to veteran teams like The Road Warriors, Harlem Heat, The Midnight Express, The Quebeckers and The Nasty Boys. Not to mention up-and-coming hits like Team 3D and The Apocalypse. No sir, TNA is where the *real* tag team wrestling is at.

Yeah Roberts can be hard to get a performance out of... but at least his personality is nice enough, so there's a possibility to get him somewhat clean. Unlike other drug-loving jackasses that shall remain unnamed, who gives me the bird when I suggest they tone down their usage.

[Rick Savant]

<p>You guys aren't seriously comparing your tag Divisions to the The Internationals, Los Trapacistas, The Samoan Swat Team, The Miracle Violence Connexion and the Steiner Brothers are you???</p><p> </p><p>

[Rick Savant]

<p>Occational??? I think Hall/Funk or the Harts have main evented every single one of my TV shows except one!</p><p> </p><p>

I'm pretty envious of that experience actually. That would do me a world of good. But let's be clear: The Tag Title's haven't been settled yet out of respect. If we'd done it at Regenesis then the titles would have been overshadowed by the World Title. And they're too important to debut on TV.</p><p> </p><p>

Tune in to AWA Wrestling Classic 1995 to see our first Tag Team Champions crowned in a fatal fourway elimination match!!!</p><p> </p><p>

Oh and if Dr Death has a problem about the MVC we strongly urge him to show up on AWA television and say his piece... hell... we'll even pay him!</p>

I assume that ECW has gone under by now. Did someone buy them out?

[Rick Savant]

No they're still clinging desperately to life. But they've been mangled. It would appear to only be a matter of time.

Glad someone's helping them out! Owen has signed and exclusive contract and the file's sent to Al. The show will be up tomorrow!

[Rick Savant]

I loved how the Hart vs Funk match wrapped up. Hall and Owen getting involved too and sorta makes me want to see Owen and Terry Funk feud actually.

 

Thanks! It's good to have someone reading the dynasties!

 

My booking is definately pretty Oldschool. Russo would not approve. As for Owen... I'm sure we're all watching with baited breath to see what happens with him next... this week was an important week for the number one contender!

[Ben5]

For the record, I'm following all you guys too (except for WCW, obviously). It's making me think I may want to start a dynasty and/or multiplayer game.

Thanks man! Yeah, I think Big Al's been pretty busy lately.

 

Honestly, multiplayer games are the way to do TEW for me... No matter how into a game I am, I always end up getting a little lazy in single player sessions, and don't develop my storylines as much as I would like.

 

Once you have to tell someone else what's going on it really brings out the old imagination. I guess a single player dynasty would do that too... but I've never done that so I'm just guessing.

Yeah I definately agree. An SP dynasty has a lot of the same, but you miss your competitors booking with a bit more sense and explanation... being able to read about what the other big players in your game are doing and why they're doing it brings a lot to the table for me. And some human interaction freshens things up.
