What's going on in your game?


Recommended Posts

I'm currently halfway through 2020 (which is the longest I've ever gotten into a TEW game, yay) and my promotion is Global and the #1. I've been pillaging WWE for years, deliberately nabbing their figureheads at any given opportunity. I have AJ Styles, John Cena, Bray Wyatt, Kevin Oweens, Cesaro, Sami Zayn, Enzo & Cass, Kofi Kingston, and probably more I'm forgetting.

 

WWE have had a real tough time of it but are still #2, maintaining a steady National size. Xavier Woods died in 2016 suddenly, while Kofi and Big E went on to great heights as the Tag Team champions. At Wrestlemania 32, the AI had Kofi win the World Heavyweight championship, which he held for about 2 years. Go Kofi. Big E came up for renewal around 2018 and I tried to sign him, as did a national Ring of Honor and NJPW. In order to keep Big E, WWE offered him creative control! :D Big E then dominated the United States title for a long while.

 

Seth Rollins got signed by New Japan when they were having a good month, and also signed Sheamus, who is just about the most over wrestler in the whole world somehow :eek:

 

It's been a strange game, but I love it

<p>Current major stories heading into Lockdown April 2017.</p><p>

Started May 2016. </p><p> </p><p>

Robert Roode Vs James Storm, The Last Dance. Storm is on time decline and I don't have a ton for him to do. They had a good match at Victory Road, this will conclude this brief feud.</p><p> </p><p>

The American Wolves Vs The Facts of Life (Eli Drake and Stuart Alexander (Barrett)) Drake and Alexander have strong chemistry, but the Wolves are the hottest thing going. Wolves will be locked in the cage post match by the debuting Briscoes. I like to keep things realistic, and the only reason I signed the Briscoes was that Mark walked out on ROH and Jay left on his own in November and became April 1 when his recent NJPW tour ended.</p><p> </p><p>

X-Divison: Alissa Flash (brought in to strengthen the KOs wound up beating the arrogant Caleb Konley for title) faces Konley in a long awaited rematch. Konley has help from Tony Nese. Post-match the whole x division revolts, setting up a two month Midcard build for destination X.</p><p> </p><p>

Magnus Vs Doug Williams: Williams must have gotten a killer destiny roll because he's on FIRE. Magnus has sucked for me. They originally were part of a storyline last year with Stu Alexander, Galloway and Bram called the Awakening. Now Magnus needs a big win and Williams is my rock star who can take it.</p><p> </p><p>

Moose vs Abyss: Abyss is still loosely associated with Decay but Crazzy Steve sucks in ring and Abyss is my second best performer so I had him as a singles character. Matt Hardy returned from losing at BFG to Jeff. Stealing from reality Matt returned BROKEN. He returned as the mastermind and controlling figure behind Abyss who was feuding with Jeff Hardy at the time. Jeff announced he was going on a tour with his band so we wrote him off (Deleted) and Matt took charge of the KOM title which Abyss had previously. Abyss seemingly lost wound up destroying Moose (who I needed to send back to development to refine... A lot) after Lashley walked out on the company the week before he was going to write moose off... So now Abyss is Matt Hardys personal henchman.</p><p> </p><p>

Matt Hardy meanwhile is now engaged in a mini feud with Drew Galloway over the KOM title. </p><p> </p><p>

Lastly for the major storylines, Angelina Love was being built up as a bitter "face" KO ready to face the Hall of Fame face Gail Kim.... But three weeks ago she broke her neck... So now the girl who broke it, Sienna is getting a push. Ultimately once healthy Love is going to turn on Kim and win the title.</p>

<p>Sept 2017 - CZCW</p><p> </p><p>

So, I probably have way too many wrestlers, but this is my first run, so I'm not really sure. I've been steadily signing more guys as I've worked my way up from regional to cult and now CZCW is ranked 12th in the world, while I'm 25th financially with $278K (coming back from about -300K after purchasing Black Canvas Grappling and pillaging it). </p><p> </p><p>

In terms of titles, Ernest Youngman is currently the Coastal Zone Champion after beating Bradford Peverell back in June (it's now Wk 3 of September). He's had 21 defenses of this title and won it almost immediately after dropping the CZ Xtreme Champion, a title which he had held since March and defended 25 times. So on the whole, Youngman's been a dominant champion over the past few months and has continued the strong push I've given him since hiring him in January of 2016. The only time he hasn't really had a big push was from December 2016-March 2017 when he had a back injury that sidelined him. Ultimately, he's a pretty viable main eventer for the company and he's still only 24. </p><p> </p><p>

Meanwhile, Bulldozer Brandon Smith is coming up on 2 months of his Coastal Zone Xtreme Championship reign. He was signed in January of 2016 and then half-pushed until April when he had a major concussion that took him out of action for around 13-14 months. Now that he's back, I put him over Cali Slick and he's been working his way up the card. I think he was a midcarder when he won the championship and after a few more signings and some extra momentum, he's currently a main eventer. However, while the CZX title is a floater, I prefer to let midcard or upper midcard guys hold it while they work their way up the card, so he may be nearing the end of his run. I just need to figure out who to push next, especially as he seems protective of his momentum, so losing the championship to anyone too far beneath him might prove tricky.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

The current tag champs are Mystic Excess, the team of El Mitico Jr and Damon Excess (the former Duberry Excess; I couldn't handle that name). They have excellent chemistry and have now been champs since the middle of June. El Mitico Jr is also the most recent winner of the Black Canvas Grand Prix, a slightly renamed tournament title which is the only title I didn't retire after pillaging BCG. The Grand Prix is now defended in August instead of April. </p><p> </p><p>

The company is currently is good shape, though the past couple months have been a bit rocky. Right after graduating to Cult status around May, I took over and disbanded BCG, taking some of their workers as well. However, almost immediately, Sofu Ozawa showed up high on painkillers and was promptly fired. Very reminiscent, of when Texas Pete showed up drunk in Feb 2016 (though at the time, that dickbag was my CZ Champion and ended up meaning the title was vacated when I fired him). In addition, mainstay Al Coleman, who has had disciplinary issues in the past, finally walked out on me after his morale got too low. It also disbanded his team with Air Attack Weasel. </p><p> </p><p>

Rounding out my roster, I'm currently trying to push Acid II and Stuntman as a tag team, possibly as well as Ant-Man/Topher Smith and Moroi/Badau. On the singles side, I'm trying to get El Jaguar, Ross Henry, and Silver Tiger over. of the really good performers on my roster, most of the others are already UM or ME, including Air Attack Weasel, Bradford Peverell, Marvel Malloy (Storm Spillane signed on to tour with PGHW a few months ago), California Love Machine, Frankie Boy Fernandes, Jake Idol and Jackpot Jordan. Fox Mask is also pretty over, but I don't have any real urge to push him, and while Donnie J can still work in angles, his match work is in the D territory. Donnie's contract is up in 2 and a half months and I don't know whether I'll resign him. He's a locker room leader and has multiple relationships within the company, but he's useless as far as matches go at this point. </p><p> </p><p>

Outside the company, I haven't been paying a ton of attention, but I have noticed that PGHW and Golden Canvas Grappling are both pretty close to bankruptcy. Each is almost $4M in debt and if either goes kaput instead of being bought, I should be able to rehire some prior workers (Storm Spillane and Frankie Perez/Kill Switch, respectively). I've considered buying them myself, but going $7M in the hole just to retire some titles and gain three more workers is a bit too much. The revenge would be nice, but I can't do it. If both companies die, though, that'll be 3 Japanese companies down in the space of two years. It's interesting, though. PGHW was, for quite a while, the most influential company in my world. Whatever took them down, though, now has them at 5th most influential, right behind CZCW. They're still 6th in terms of importance. </p><p> </p><p>

To close out my post, I'll give you the current state of my competitors within the US. USPW and SWF are 1 and 2, both national. TCW is a step above me, at number 3, but they are also cult-sized. (The order of entries in both national and cult brackets is reversed for influence, so I'm number 3 in the US there, and SWF is winning overall). The only two regional promotions are QAW and AAA, respectively. On the whole, it seems like SWF and USPW will continue to fight for national recognition, with TCW ocassionally entering the mix. I'm too small to still go head to head with them, and probably will be until I get a better tv deal (currently Canal Dos in the late evenings). However, while I can't fight the big dogs, the regional promotions can't match me, so I'm sort of in my own league right now. I'll keep running my monthly events on the first Monday, weekly events on Tuesdays, and tv show on Fridays and hope that the tv coverage will get me to a point where I can get a better deal and start really competing.</p>

Have had a break from my WWF 1987 save but getting back to it, forgot the finer point of my plans.

 

The Plan is still for Bulldog to turn on The Rowdy Hulkamaniacs in August, Join Heenen Family and capture the title from Hulk at Summerslam.

 

So far looking for Bulldog to hold the title until near the end November/December until face Piper or Jake Roberts have a transitional run. losing it to heel Randy Savage at Royal Rumble in preparation for a Match with Hogan at Mania 4.

 

Hogan will also have a ready made feud going for after WM4 against Bulldog. Could have that match at Summerslam 88, Hogan having to wait a year for revenge on Bulldog.

 

looking to give Andre the giant a run... originally with the Heavyweight title... but it would have to be in the Second half of 88 for a few however not looking for Hulk to lose the title shortly after getting it back.

 

Kinda want to pad out Andre's empty WWF title history with a coupe of Tag reigns and a US title reign.

 

I could however.... not have Piper/Jake be the transitional champion between Bulldog and Savage. Have it be Andre... turn face by running in (lol) to save Hogan, post loss to Bulldog, to scare of the Heenan family.

 

Andre with a couple months reign, get beaten by Savage at Rumble.

 

After the title reign, he will put others over until he retires in a Mania match v Taker in casket match.

 

Taker will have a list of victims hes retired at Mania that will include Sammartino at WM3 and hopefully Andre at WM 5????

Currently trying to save TNA in my latest save using the august RWC mod

we have just finished bound for glory 16 with the following show

 

10 man battle royal to kick start the pre show and get everyone on the card. the match is won by new comer Will Osprey, Rosemary and Havok def Rebel and Chelsea.

 

Main Card

DJZ Def. Lashley, Baxton Sutter, Spud, Trevor Lee and Tigre Uno in an Ultimate X match to become to the new X-division title - the storyline behind this has basically been Lashleys quest to capture was completed when he won the world title, x title, KOTM title and captured the tag titles with a random fan (Tyler Klutz aka Brad Maddox). Dixie Carter, Billy Corgan and the new Director of Authority Theodore R. Long (more on that to come) told lashley he would have to defend all the belts at BFG.

 

Jade def. Marti Belle in a last woman standing match to become the no1 contender for the knockouts title - Jade after thinking she had already seen the last of Marti gained a shot at the title against Sienna, during the match Marti attacked Jade through the guidance of Maria who promised a shot at the title if she did. weeks of attacks on each other caused Billy Corgan to step in and make the match going over Marias head.

 

Eli Drake and Aiden O'Shea Def Grado and Shera - not much story behind this one. Eli and Aiden are a new team after they got an excellent chemisty note. Grado's contract is up in 4 weeks and shera has little to do either so they had to lose.

 

The Wolves Def Lashley and Tyler Klutz (who took the fall) to capture the TNA tag titles. - again continuing Lashley been ordered to defend every belt in the same night. the big story here happens after the match when the Wolves are celebrating they are attacked by the Briscoe Brothers who are making their TNA debut.

 

Sienna Def Gail Kim to retain the Knockouts title - Gail Kim has spent the last 3 months on a mission to earn this match with Maria doing everything in her power to stop it including bringing back Havok to TNA to take out Kim. Kim was meant to win the title here however plans had to change when i got the message 2 days before BFG that Gail would be retiring in 1 month. so she gracefully put over Sienna and i plan to give Gail 1 big send off match on her last impact by finally letting her have her match with Maria. following the match Madison Rayne and Jade run off Sienna, Havok, Maria and Allie.

 

James Storm Def. Tyrus w/Eli Drake and Aiden O'Shea - now this seems like a weird combination however after storm won the KOTM title from Drake he successfully defending the belt against both Eli and Aiden on several occasions (before dropping the belt to lashley), who turned to the fixer Tyrus to take out storm. Tyrus cost storm the KOTM title and the world title leading to a match at BFG.

 

Decay (Abyss, Crazzy Steve and Bram) Def. Drew Galloway and The BroMans in a monsters ball match - following Drews lost to EC3 and failing to gain a shot at the world title Drew attempting to let of anger caught to attention of Decay who took offense to him. The Bromans had been fueding with Decay over the tag titles (until decay lost them to lashley and klutz) and decided to give Drew some back up. The main focus of this has been to rebuild Abyss as a singles star and move Steve and Bram to become a tag team, Abyss has been getting over with little effort on my part and going into BFG was the 3rd most over guy on the roster.

 

Mike Bennett w/The Kingdom of Miracles Def 'The Big Man' Ryan Reeves in a cage match. - this is the first big change that i have made to the TNA roster up until this point (only other hiring i had made was tyler klutz). Dixie and Corgan made the decision that due to Bennett and Maria trying to manipulate the system that Impact needed a new manager to control the shows. bringing back the old position of DOA of TNA introducing Theodore R Long. Longs first order of business was to give Mike Bennett the worthy opponent he was so desperate for in the form of Ryan Reeves. their first scheduled match never took place as Moose attacked Reeves before the match along with Trevor Lee and Andrew Everatt allowing Bennett to announce his new stable... The Kingdom of Miracles. Their seconded match was turned into a tag match as EC3 teamed with Reeves however Bennett and Moose walked out on the match as Bennett refused to get in the ring with Reeves. Long finally told bennett that the match would happen at BFG and it would be in a cage match. Bennett was only able to win due to all the members of the kingdom interfering preventing Reeves from escaping the cage. Moose has to drag an unconcious Bennett from the ring. (very nearly the match of the night)

 

Jeff Hardy Def. 'Broken' Matt Hardy in a 'Death' Match. (as a death match was to risque for the broadcasters it was just a hardcore match) - Matt Hardy has reached the end of his TNA time. he is in extreme time decline and he contract was up for renewal so i decided that Jeff would gain his redemption and freedom from Matt Hardy and be the last Hardy left in TNA.

 

Ethan Carter III def Lashley to win both the TNA World Title and the King of the Mountain title. - lashleys third match of the night yet he proved himself to be an iron man as he went 25 minutes with EC3 and had the match of the night. the build to this match was somewhat lackluster really and was shocked it got the rating it did. Lashley had spent to much time over the last months interacting with the X-division and with the tag teams and not really focused on EC3. EC3 won his shot in the BFG tournament, he then faced Galloway for the right to the title shot, got involved with the Kingdom and Reeves and only in the last fews weeks leading to BFG have the two interacted. however they have been giving me 80+ rating every time they have. Following the match EC3 is knocked out cold by a newly debuting Stuart Barrett.

 

The show smashed my previous best show rating by a long way (was 67 and i hit 80 with BFG) and should hopefully have given my pop a bit of a boost

 

I need to spend a bit of time now trying to figure out where everyone goes following this event. my main focus is going to be rebuilding the x-division and knockouts division.

Playing the 1998 mod as WCW. I have just begun the game and things are already spiraling out of control. I'm a day out of the Great American Bash (which is the first PPV). Kevin Nash has been on a complete tear since the game started on Roddy Piper. He has continuously created backstage heat on Piper and it's gotten so bad that Piper has handed in his notice and will be leaving in 14 days.

 

I've done what I could via the editor, but there was just no saving this. I considered for a minute canning Nash because of it and keeping Piper, but Piper has so many negative relationships now my backstage rating is a 1%. I'll be relieved to see him go so my rating will improve.

 

Lex Luger was the next to hand in his notice. Luger, who was busted for hard drugs, became pissed when I sent him to rehab. He was previously pissed because Liz, who was also busted for hard drug use, was sent to rehab.

 

My next big concern is Bret Hart. He became furious after the British Bulldog, who was busted for hard drug use (big surprise), was sent to rehab. Call me crazy, but shouldn't friends be happy that someone is going to rehab to help curb their drug use and possibly save their life? I feel like any time now I'm going to get the email that Hart's handed in his notice, which at that point will really screw things over. I'm half tempted to toss this mod in the trash and try the 1997 one.

Well this is the second attempt at writing this because halfway through my laptop died :mad:.

 

However this is Backlash 2019, 3 years after the start off my save.

 

We started off with Noelle Foley defeated Charlotte in an 81 B after Charlotte turned on her friend and cost her the number one contendership to the Women's United States Championship but it backfired on her when Noelle Foley defeated her with a roll up.

 

Next up Brock's jobbing continued when he lost to a regen by the name of Jerry Bowman who just returned from his 3rd MMA victory which Brock called him out on. Lesnar leaves in a week and his last act is to put over an Enhancement Talents who will hopefully gain a lot of pop from that.

 

No Way Jose's dreadfull European Championship comes to an end when he is defeated by another regen by the name of Zeshin Ikoma who NXT seem to have a lot of faith in as he is a former 2 time NXT World Champion and tag team champion. Anyway he is already a midcarder and he beat a main eventer so he will get a big boost.

 

In a throw away match Akira Tozawa defeated Jack Gallagher, Tony Nese and Aaron Clark Hunter (ACH) to retain his Light Heavyweight Title in an 83 rated match.

 

That was followed up by Apollo Crews destroying Cole (Drew) Galloway in a 90 rated match. Basically after Apollo kayfabe injured Sandow at Wrestlemania he decided to take his anger out on former friend Galloway and he has put him through a table and announce table and because of this he was able to easily pick up the victory due to the injuries he caused. Post match his attack on Galloway was cut of by Jay Lethal returning from his Kayfabe injury after Apollo hurt him before Wrestlemania after he promised to help Sandow beat Apollo.

 

That was followed up by Emma (Who turned face post Wrestlemania) retain her title in a 91 A against Queen Sasha by submission with an Emma Lock. Post match they were brawling when a member of the crowd came out and started skipping around the ring before leaving through the crowd again. That's right AJ Lee returned to WWE and she is going after the Women's US Championship.

 

Next up we had the joint highest rated match when in a 99 A* rated match The Ultimate Connection retained their Intercontinental Tag Team Championships against The Wolf Pack who were just Interim champions. They will get another shot in the future but for now it's not their time to be the champions.

 

A slightly disappointing match followed when in an 85 B+ rated match Bray Wyatt got his revenge on Harper when he threw Harper into an exposed turbuckle followed by a Sister Abigail and got the victory. This will finish at the next PPV before they both enter the MITB match and go into title pictures.

 

The next match also got less than what it did at Wrestlemania but I'm assuming that it was because it was inside a steel cage. Anyway that match got a 92 A where Big Cass defeated Enzo Amore to win the Intercontinental Championship. They will have another match next month and I think Cass will win as Enzo will go into the MITB match.

 

In the main event Cody Rhodes defeated Randy Orton to retain his WWE Championship in a 99 A* match. Once again the rating was boosted due to their good chemistry and I might have them go once more before we change up the title picture but I haven't decided yet.

 

The show got a 98 A* which was really good. Payback is up next for Monday Night Raw

<p>Trying to build to TCW Total Mayhem XX. I'm really excited for this one because it feels like where the things I've been starting are finally going to come together. The card looks like this:</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><em>Aaron Andrews © vs. Ricky Dale Johnson for the TCW World Heavyweight Title</em></strong></p><p>

Andrews beat Rocky Golden at Malice when Chance Fortune turned heel and joined his former LA Connection partner. Afterward, Rocky got sidetracked by an attack from the debuting Marat Khoklov, so RDJ stepped in as the face of do-gooding, upset at how Aaron handled the belt. Aaron hasn't beaten RDJ clean yet, but did defeat him at War To Settle the Score. Aaron wins this one again as his stable, The Player's Club (Chance Fortune, Jay Chord and maybe one other) comes together.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><em>Sammy Bach vs. Wolf Hawkins</em></strong></p><p>

Literally just a ratings match for me. The story is that at the fatal fourway elimination match at Just Another Day? in March, Hawkins pinned Bach while Hawkins tapped out to the Bach On Your Back, eliminating both and retaining the title for Andrews. So they both feel screwed by the other. Pretty sure Wolf is going to win, but I'm not positive because I don't want to end up too heel heavy on the top end and with Sammy's 98 SQ, I have little qualms about pushing him to the moon.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><em>Rocky Golden vs. Marat Khoklov</em></strong></p><p>

I fully expect this to be the lowest rated match on the card, but oh well. Rocky lost to Marat at War to Settle the Score, and beat Eddie Peak last month to earn this chance at a rematch. Marat's just been clobbering whoever I feed him so far and hasn't lost in TCW. Rocky gets this one because he's still the figurehead and I want him on top. Marat's contract is up the following month as well, we'll see if I keep him around; I only brought him in for this feud.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><em>Jay Chord © vs. Mighty Mo for the TCW International Championship</em></strong></p><p>

The only starting storyline still going, Jay and Mo have both been slowly moving their way up the card. Jay won a Fatal Fourway at Just Another Day? to earn the title in a match also involving Mo, Giant Tana and former champion Marc Speed. Jay retains because he's a founding member of The Player's Club.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><em>Benny Benson vs. Marc Speed</em></strong></p><p>

Speed tries to submit Benson, who's been doing a great job of slipping out of Speed's holds over the past couple of months. A bit of a filler match, I originally wanted Joshua Taylor vs. Speed in a battle of holds, but USPW stole Taylor when his contract came up.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><em>The New Wave vs. The Canadian Animals</em></strong></p><p>

Freddy & Edd have been pulling crazy ratings on my B-Show while The New Wave feuded with The Behemoths (still tag champs) and The Elite, so this will be the show opener to get the crowd hot. Pretty sure New Wave win, but Freddy has been so good that I kinda want to push him towards the main event.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><em>The Behemoths (Titan & Killer Shark) vs. The Raging Bulls (Bulldozer Brandon Smith & Lug Phelan) for the TCW Tag Team Titles</em></strong></p><p>

This is the plan that I had brought Smith & Phelan in for, but they haven't gotten the overness I wanted, which probably means The Behemoths retain despite a good brawl.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><em>Troy Tornado vs. Jefferson Stardust</em></strong></p><p>

I stole Stardust from SWF and debuted him interfering in a Benson/Tornado feud. Since then, it's been about who is the bigger rock star. I think Stardust wins this to go up 2-0 in the feud and call it as well. Tornado has underwhelmed since the start of this game and I think I've soured on him a bit.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><em>Some Sort of Battle Royal</em></strong></p><p>

Gotta fit everyone on the show or they get mad, right? But seriously, this will probably be a combination of foreshadowing Bryan Vessey's face turn some more (going to have him join Human Arsenal & Buddy Garner and turn The Lethal Weapons into a stable), showing off Eddie Peak as a monstrous predator, and continuing the slow, casual Giant Tana half-push he got as Marc Speed's #1 contender for 3 months. And I'll probably slip a couple lower card guys in the final 4 to give them a bit of a rub. Davis Wayne Newton & Ernest Youngman, maybe, or Eddie Chandler, or Matt Hocking.</p>

<p>3 years in game after my first ever PPV in this save, Payback 2016 is over and instead of Dolph Ziggler vs Roman Reigns which main evented that one we have Kevin Owens vs Sami Zayn in the main event.</p><p> </p><p>

We started off with the Women's Championship on the line as Naomi got her rematch for the title but Peyton Royce was able to defeat her and retain the Women's Championship in an 80 rated match. Looking for her to defend at the next PPV before Nia Jax gets involved and becomes a 3 time women's champion around about Battleground.</p><p> </p><p>

That was followed up by The Bloodline retaining their Tag Team Titles against The Hardy Boys and The Von Erich's who debuted from NXT on the post Wrestlemania Raw. Plan is for Von Erich's to take The Bloodline's titles but not yet as they will face The Hardy's next month.</p><p> </p><p>

That was followed up by Eric Price winning a 3 on 1 handicap match against 3 local jobbers in a 68 rating. Triple H will return soon and I'm thinking about continuing their rivalry.</p><p> </p><p>

Next up was the final of the 16 man number one contendership tournament for the Cruiserweight Championship. The final two men were both newcomers with Shiima Xion losing to Tommasso Ciampa in an 84 rated match as Johnny Gargano watched on. Post match Gargano tried to congratulate his former tag team partner and to be a good sportsman but he was hit with a low blow from Ciampa who then took his Cruiserweight title and walked out with it.</p><p> </p><p>

After he lost his Global Championship to Kofi Kingston at Wrestlemania, Noam Dar got his rematch and despite it being a face on face match it still got an 87 rating which was the second best match of the night following the main event. Kofi beat Noam with a fast roll up to keep both men looking strong coming out of the match.</p><p> </p><p>

Since become the US Champion Neville has put on some really good matches but this is not one of them as himself and Xavier Woods had poor chemistry meaning their bout for the title got a very disappointing 76 which with chemistry could have been so much better but what can you do. At least it wasn't the Wrestlemania main event.</p><p> </p><p>

Another match that really disappointed was the following match between Adam Cole of Balor Club vs AJ Styles which only got a 77 rating which shows that AJ is really starting to struggle due to his declining physical ability (I also may have dropped his pop from 90 to 77 due to him losing to Nick Jackson and Finn Balor in 2 nights). Anyway Finn has told AJ to go through all of Balor Club before he can get to him and first up he got a victory over the Andre the Giant Memorial winner Adam Cole.</p><p> </p><p>

The semi main event paid off my trust in this match as Fred Yehi defeated The Miz in an 86 B+ match. The plan was for Miz to get a cheap victory first but he is going back to Hollywood soon again just 4 months after returning so he's getting jobbed out for 3 months until he goes and films Marine 10: Breaking Point.</p><p> </p><p>

The main event was far greater than the rest of the card but what do you expect when it's Kevin Owens vs Sami Zayn. KO picked up the victory with a pop up powerbomb after a grueling 30 minute contest which delivered us a great 95 A* rating and made the show decent rather than lacklustre as it was looking to be.</p><p> </p><p>

The show got a 92 A and it just shows how I can't wait until post Wrestlemania next year to redraft (as I plan on doing it every 2 years) because right now Smackdown is definitely the dominant brand.</p>

<p>Feels good heading into 1996. Even though this game world has been better than real life, we're now heading into a change of direction. </p><p> </p><p>

I think there is a chance I could head towards Vince vs Austin as a feud. After all the years of Austin, it just becomes too much for Vince. We shall see. </p><p> </p><p>

I'm not going to change into a X rated show or anything, would be impossible since Vince doesn't let me change things. Just some more attitude. <img alt=":p" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p>

Survivor Series 1995. </p><p> </p><p>

The bold survive</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Hollywood Blonds</strong>, Hardyz and <strong>Perfect</strong> defeat the Kliq.</p><p> </p><p>

Shawn is found responsible. He takes a beating from the other 4 and wont be seen again until the royal rumble. Is the boyhood dream going to come true one more time, baby? I don't know. I really want to do Steiner vs Austin as my Wrestlemania 12 main event. Damn it. Well at least it is good to have options. Steiner vs Shawn, I dunno, it just doesn't do it for me. If Shawn is getting the title shot then it will have to be against somebody else. Not looking good for you, Shawn. The boyhood dream might just have to wait. </p><p> </p><p>

hmmm It would make sense to do Triple H vs Shawn Michaels at Wrestlemania 12. It was Triple that organized the attack on Shawn. The IC title can be on the line. Don't look down on the IC title. Yes, it is settled. </p><p> </p><p>

The Hart Brothers won the tag team titles from Harlem Heat at SNME. Bret loses the world title and rebounds by winning the tag titles. Seems to just be something I do with tag teams. Give a team an extra reign. Harlem Heat won the titles back. 2 Cold Scorpio interfered and turned heel. </p><p> </p><p>

Harlem Heat will now hold the titles until Wrestlemania. They will defend them against The Hardyz. By this time, the Hardyz will have beat most of the other teams and now seem ready to make a real challenge.</p><p> </p><p>

Not really sure what to do with Bret now. Could be time for a heel turn. I'd like to be able to copy real life in this one because I loved it how Bret was a villain outside of Canada. I can do it. Not like I haven't sped things up before, pretty much a miracle that Kane hasn't been brought in yet. </p><p> </p><p>

*That is going to wait. Time for Bret to go on the offensive as a face against Harlem Heat and Scorpio. Bret is ''the Hitman'' after all. Time for Bret and Owen to use some dungeon tactics.</p><p> </p><p>

RVD vacated the jr heavyweight title because he is putting on muscle to face the Warrior. Warrior taunts him about this and does his creepy Warrior stuff. Warrior was recently offered the big WCW money , the 20% per event. etc, but he turned down WCW. hahah. Maybe because I offered him a 8 year contract. We're in the money, so what do I care? I'm just happy he is staying. Warrior will defeat RVD. We're just getting started with this. </p><p> </p><p>

Kid Waltman won the vacant Jr heavyweight title. Rey has been looking strong lately. They will feud over it. </p><p> </p><p>

Billy Gunn turned heel on Bart after Smoking Gunns lost a pre show match. Jesse James is in development. They will be put together shortly. </p><p> </p><p>

The Million Dollar man was trying to tempt Neo. Frank Castle ended up getting in Neo face and beating him up. Castle is reminded of an incident during his youth when he was in a similar situation.<img alt=":confused:" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/confused.png.d4a8e6b6eab0c67698b911fb041c0ed1.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Castle makes out like he is doing Neo a favor. Anyway, they will wrestle for the TV title. Neo will put up the good effort. Damn that Neo stamina. Still hasn't moved up from 42 lol. It is the only thing that is really holding him back from being amazing. Charisma going up all the time. </p><p> </p><p>

Scott Steiner retains the WWF title. Undertaker and Paul Bearer made it clear that the wait to become champion has been too long. This is the five anniversary of his debut. </p><p> </p><p>

Was really tempted to do the title change, but instead, Mortis finally made his debut and shot some substance from his mask into Taker's eyes. It is a fire like substance only not. It will turn out The Undertaker has a history with Mortis and some other guy. Could the other guy be Kane? I think so. </p><p> </p><p>

I just had to give Mortis a break. He was out for over a year and I signed him while he was injured, he spent the last few months in development. Demon King Demon King Demon King! Shut up. Yes, Mortis has a demon gimmick. I can't even remember him from WCW. I can remember the Glacier match, that would be it. Plus, I like my demons and aliens being characters in my game. I'll take Mortis > Kanyon. More chance of making it in my world. </p><p> </p><p>

The Rock is now in the game and he is heading to development.</p><p> </p><p>

Jim Cornette is coming back. I'm not sure who he will manage yet. He signs the 9 month freelance deals. Somebody could use him.</p><p> </p><p>

I've signed the Great Muta regen to a development deal.</p>

<p>Wrestlemania 34 has just passed, and it went well!</p><p> </p><p>

In the Pre-Show I put everyone that didn't feature in the main show. Will Ospreay won a triple threat involving Trent Barreta and Zema Xion. The Hardyz beat The LEgacy and Kofi Kingston won the 50 Man Andre The Giant Battle Memorial.</p><p> </p><p>

Match 1: Bray Wyatt beat Samoa Joe (77)</p><p>

Match 2: Sasha Banks beat the returning AJ Lee (75)</p><p>

Match 3: Derrick Bateman beat Jack Swagger (75)</p><p>

Match 4: United Kingdom beat American Alpha to retain US Tag Titles (75)</p><p>

Match 5: Sami Zayn © beat ADR to retain US Title (83)</p><p>

Match 6: Adam Cole beat Kota Ibushi © to win the Cruiserweight Title (77)</p><p>

Match 7: Brock Lesnar beat Edward Langston (75)</p><p>

Match 8: Xavier Woods beat John Cena (84)</p><p>

Match 9: AJ Styles won MITB (also featuring Orton, Aries, Gargano, Crews & Amore) (73)</p><p>

Match 10: JeriKO beat Briscoes © , The Bucks & The Uso's to win the World Tag Titles (84)</p><p>

Match 11: Triple H beat Dean Ambrose (78)</p><p>

Match 12: Rusev beat Antonio Cesaro to win the IC TItle (83)</p><p>

Match 13: A Returning CM Punk beat Roman Reigns (91)</p><p>

Match 14: Seth Rollins beat Robert Roode © to win the WWE Title (98)</p><p> </p><p>

The whole show got a 94 rating which I believe in either my best or second best of the game so far! It got carried a bit by the two main events though, because some matches on the card weren't as good as I thought they would be.</p><p> </p><p>

The plan going forward is to have the people who lost their titles at Mania have rematches at Backlash, where their rivalries will end for good. I feel like Seth has a multitude of challengers set to possibly face him at Summerslam, not sure which one will face him yet. Could have Seth v Roman again, or I could have Punk turn heel for a Rollins v Punk match. I also feel like I should give Cena one last title reign eventually too, maybe next year though. Rollins/Rusev, Rollins/Woods, Rollins/Owens, Rollins/Jericho, Rollins/Lesnar, Rollins/Styles & Rollins/Cole could also happen at some point this year. Pretty much what I'm saying is that there is a plethora of talent in the heel side that could face him.</p><p> </p><p>

Backlash will be:</p><p>

Rollins v Roode, Rusev v Cesaro, Zayn v Rhodes, JeriKO v Briscoes and Cole v Ibushi, plus I might throw in rematches from Mania there too in a tag match, like Cena & Punk v Woods & Reigns etc.</p>

<p>Reading through some of your games trying to get inspired. I went 3 years deep with a TCW game and a nice brand split before i burned out. Then I started an MAW game that went a few years. I also started a SOTBPW but only made it a few months. Same goes with my own company.</p><p> </p><p>

Not sure what I want to play.</p>

Started a new WCW game with Montreal Aftermath, and after looking at the Star Quality of their roster in the Mod Squad thread, I realised I had enough depth that I didn't need to rely on the negative personalities so decided to cut my losses. A couple of them were easy enough to cut because they were small-time and were easy enough to pop for drug use (looking at you, Juventud Guerrera). The rest lasted until Starrcade.

 

The Steiners break up saw them drop the tag straps to The Outsiders on Nitro, and then Rick go over Scott at Starrcade. DDP & The Giant then took the belts from The Outsiders at Starrcade as well, to clear the way for them to be ditched.

 

Sting went clean over Hogan, and Savage went over Luger in a short match (I had got rid of Buff Bagwell on the first day of the game). I had Bischoff kayfabe fired as part of NWO's bad night at Starrcade (which also saw Hennig drop the US title to Bret Hart on his debut), as WCW reclaimed control of the company, and then sacked him off-screen too.

 

Hall, S. Steiner and Luger all got popped for drugs so I released them but Hogan and Nash were clean so I had to wait for them to have incidents backstage, which didn't take long so they're gone as well. WWF have already signed Scott Hall but left the others for now. I'm being sued by Hogan and Nash for unfair dismissal, which could be costly.

 

However, clearing out that lot has helped streamline and focus my roster. Piper started criticising Flair for losing his way and letting the Nature Boy die, which sparked a revival in Flair, who then turned on Piper to reform the Horsemen (with Curt Hennig, and the debuting Sid Vicious and Shane Douglas).

 

Current feuds are:

Sting vs Randy Savage (WCW World Heavyweight Championship)

Bret Hart vs Curt Hennig (WCW United States Championship)

DDP & The Giant vs Bill DeMott & Ray Traylor (WCW World Tag Team Championships)

Chris Benoit vs Shane Douglas (WCW Television Championship)

Chris Jericho vs Eddy Guerrero (WCW Cruiserweight Championship)

Ric Flair vs Roddy Piper

Davey Boy Smith vs Sid Vicious

Harlem Heat vs Armstrongs (Steve & Brad)

Rick Steiner vs Fit Finlay

Goldberg's Streak

 

The roster is pretty impressive even after losing Hogan, Nash, Hall, Steiner, Luger and a few others, and a much more manageable size (a significant portion of the midcard and below have been sent to development as well). Having Sting, Savage, Hart, DDP, Giant, Flair & Hennig already at a point where they could feasibly challenge for the title, Vicious & Davey Boy a rung below, and Booker, Goldberg, Jericho, Eddy and Douglas being built up is looking very good for the future. I'm not going to have Benoit near the top of the card, I have no need for him with the depth I've got, I'll probably just let his deal expire and have him fade away, but Finlay and Malenko look like they'll become Upper Midcard mechanics who can really go in the ring but don't quite have enough to be Main Event players. I also have a lot of potential in development too, should be a fun game.

 

Booker T has already bulked up to Muscular Heavyweight and had a boost to his already impressive SQ, which cements him as a top-tier potential figurehead for the future.

Played a few shows on my CZCW saveon the Deault DB.

 

Currently into May 2018.

 

After a couple of years of playing legit I found myself playing the save less and less so I decded to change it up to breath more life into it.

 

in 2017-2018 I had been using TCW guys on talent loans and then when TCW fell on hard times I signed a few to PPA's, that didn't feel I was too small, like flying Jimmy Fox, Scout and Jay Chord and began using them more than just putting my guys over.

 

I set up the Coastal Zone Network- My User character and owner of the company released a network in 2018 that was catered to the 18-30 male market.

 

CZCW now a network to air it's events across America, Mexico and Canada.

 

A few months down the line the network is a sucess and CZCW feel the benafit of it, doubling it's viewership ever show i nthe last 3 shows that ha catapulted CZCW to cult status.

 

It's in a precarious position now as to locking down there Coastal Zone Mainstays, locking down the stars of the future `and trying to add name power to the company without taking away the uniqueness of the product.

 

I have began the process of more or less killing off the struggling TCW who are just about managing to keep some of their top guy to PPA. I have given a contract to most of their top guy like Peak, Jimmy Fox, Chord, Scout, Ed Stone,Benny Benson to Written deals, alongside their best Road Agents and Ref's. This is for two reasons, to add Star power to the roster and to rub off their pop and skill to my mainstays and future guy whose style is more in keeping with Coastal Zone.

 

As soon a I make those moves SWF and USPW decide to bid for the same guys, making me pay over hat I'd like whilst also trying to steal some of the guys I had before like Ross Henry and who I built up like Cali Love Machine. I'm doing all I can to keep everyone and add the names on my list.

 

Using Nate Johnson, Eddie Peak, Benny Benson Flying Jimmy Fox to help put over my long term guys like, American Elemental II, Cali Love Machine, Fro Sure, Matt Hocking, Jake Idol, Acid II, American Flash, Tigre Salvaje Jr and Marval Malloy.

 

 

My biggest success has been with Cali Love Machine, it's taken a good 2 year but he's gone from Lower Midcard/Midcard to Main event level talent.

 

Winning two Extreme titles and recently the COTT title. Pops up to 82 in my home region 67 in mid south and 50+ everywhere else now.

 

He will be getting lined up to take the CZCW title from Jay Chord later on in the year.

 

Then i'll be turning my attention on getting American Elementa II, Tigre Salvaje, Fro Sure Up to that level.

 

My user had a great first 12/18 months winning the titles, having good reigns but the last 12/18 have seen him lose his titles, lose his grip and overall lose a 9 months feud with Cali Love Machine ending in a 87 rated Last Man Standing match to crown a new COTT champion after it was vacated by Mighty Mo when he left NYCW to SWF.

<p>Final big event of the year. SNME 26.</p><p> </p><p>

Frank Castle going out of his way to prove he is not like everybody else. Mr Perfect is on his way to WCW and I'm fine with that. Good luck to him. </p><p> </p><p>

Anyway, Perfect had 21 days to take a couple of losses, but instead, I gave him a few wins and made him number one contender for Castle and the TV title. Castle beats him with stoppage finish in 10 minutes and then does the exiting stage assault. I might have used this 2 times before on this save, in almost 6 years and it has been years since the last time I used it. </p><p> </p><p>

Crazy scenes. Refs, officials out to check on Perfect. Castle calmly leaves the building on his own. The officials wont dare put their hand on him, even though he would never touch them back. They just don't know this. Anyway, Arnold says enough is enough and this will lead to......</p><p> </p><p>

Tyson vs Castle at Wrestlemania 12 boxing match. Why not? I've made Castle into the most dangerous man alive, he just killed Mr. Perfect, Curt will never be seen on WWF TV again. We will find him buried on WCW. Just kidding. Out of all my losses, I'm not feeling this one. He has done everything he could for me and I even made him champion for a couple of months. </p><p> </p><p>

Neo is still in the picture. He was doing the old watching from the crowd thing as this happened.. Don't think of Sting. Neo talks and stuff. </p><p> </p><p>

Bret Hart, Owen Hart and Taz will take on Harlem Heat and Scorpio. I'm going to create a dungeon match soon. But that will be 2 on 2. Taz has been beating locals and Brooklyn Brawler for weeks now. Finally getting a big match. </p><p> </p><p>

What else, I have a number one contender match with Austin vs Pillman vs Mankind vs Raven. </p><p> </p><p>

Pillman and Mankind have a separate feud going at the minute. Mankind is fascinated by Pillman. hmmmm. </p><p> </p><p>

I haven't booked the show yet so I'm not even sure where I'm going because I'm not sure who is going to win the main event. That is a Steiner vs Undertaker rematch. Last man standing. Paul Bearer apparently has Mortis word that he will stay out of it. What he doesn't tell us is that Mortis is looking something in return. ''TELL THEM THE TRUTH!!!!!!!!!''</p><p> </p><p>

Juventud Guerrera gets the jr heavyweight title shot against Kid Waltman. Rey will be out cheer leading. Kid wins. </p><p> </p><p>

The lucky man to get 9 months with Cornette is Robbie Brookside. He will be a star in the jr heavyweight division. </p><p> </p><p>

Ken Shamrock gets the opportunity to win the IC title from Triple H. Don't see any way he can win the title, but I might be generous and have the kliq interfere for a dq. Razor and Diesel aren't booked on the show. I have ideas for Bret now. He will continue teaming with Owen and it will probably be Hart brothers vs Outsiders at Wrestlemania. </p><p> </p><p>

Really looking forward to the Royal Rumble now. Still not quite sure where I'm going.</p><p> </p><p>

Finally got a deal to show some wrestling events in Japan.</p><p> </p><p>

it is now in the books and. </p><p> </p><p>

<span>http://66.media.tumblr.com/6bc23ba786749d7ec6fc38553a12e475/tumblr_n86ejsC2sf1rg89a6o1_500.jpg</span></p><p> </p><p>

Austin won the number one contender match and will challenge the Undertaker at Royal Rumble. They haven't met before. I would expect Scott Steiner to interfere. Thinking of having Undertaker head into Wrestlemania as champion and he can win there as well. Lose the title the next event or something. Haven't had a WWF champion retain at Wrestlemania yet.</p>
