captainlou Posted March 27, 2014 Share Posted March 27, 2014 Thanks again for your work in getting me started. Totally loving the database so far. I am having a great time with "The Undertaker" so far. The only drawback with WS3 is that you can't see what is going on in other territories, ie title changes, cards, etc.. One of the things that I do like with WS3 is that I don't have to control my tag team partner. In PNW, "Dangerous Dan" is really totally dangerous in the ring and dominates the smaller competition. I've added a trademark move that I just became able to use as I increase his skills. In WCW he used a flying elbow drop from the top rope. Mean Mark Callous would climb the turnbuckles, take a step onto the top rope, then deliver a flying elbow drop, which was a finishing move. I just copied Randy Savage's flying elbow drop and renamed it. The name of the move is "Heat Seeking Missile". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could joke that Adam is making a none-too-subtle point that wrestlers are self-centered to the point of sociopathetic - but I won't.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackjack Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Steel Belt Wrestling- I get that this is a pseudo promotion but is it still based in 1983 or based on previous time periods? It seems pretty loaded with 70's superstars that were well passed their primes in 1983. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D. Boons Ghost Posted March 9, 2016 Author Share Posted March 9, 2016 Steel Belt was added to highlight the Legends aspect that I was leaning towards at the time. Were I to do this again, I'd probably scale the wrestlers down to over the hill status. 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rick Arnold Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 I'll have to reinstall WS3, so I can give another go at "The Very Racist Adventures of Stan Hansen"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D. Boons Ghost Posted June 16, 2017 Author Share Posted June 16, 2017 Still the best! Bumping for a friend. 😄 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
