What's going on in your game?

Austin influence over Cena. Looks like he got him on the drink.

The throwaway match with Rock and Rhyno ended up being Summerslam match of the night. 92 I was at an English speaking venue but got language deductions for promos with English speakers. Not sure what was going on. Was past the point of changing the venue because I'd already signed a local. It hurt the show a little bit. The rap battle etc. Triple H and Austin got 90 for a dq finish. They will face off in hell in a cell at No Mercy in October. I'm not doing a ppv in September, I'm going to do Saturday Night Main Event instead. 10 PPVs a year is the plan for now.

Summerslam highlights

Danielson and Jerry Lynn had a decent match. 68 Liger and Christian disappointed with 71. No negative chemistry, I guess Liger isn't popular enough yet.

Hardyz beat Dudleyz. This must continue.

More ideas about teams will come as I continue to book. I like mixing what would seem like odd-couples on paper yet they end up having excellent chemistry. I'll be trying to find some teams on pre-show matches.

RVD won a 10 man battle royal opener on his debut for the vacant ic title. Yeah, strapping the rocket to RVD as he smokes the rocket. Paul Heyman is his manager. Big Show was the final elimination. Got too cocky and RVD used his athleticism to avoid an attack. Big Show pretty much eliminated himself. They will feud now. RVD pop is pretty low. Not quite the ovation he received at the real Summerslam 2001.

John Cena won the rap battle against K Kwik. Kurt Angle is heel and the judge so K Kwik had no chance.

Your rhymes aren't quick, K

You ain't got the flow

better watch your step

or I'll feed you to Joe

Word Life

King Jericho defeated Grand Master Sexay. Followed that up by telling Jerry to take off the crown. Jerry responds with a loud NEVER!!!!! Then Jericho is about to attack but Jushin Liger comes out to back up Lawler. lol It's my world. It's a match I want to do.

Edge and Christian lost to APA on Raw.. Christian then got on the mic and put on his Gordon Ramsay voice saying - ''Give me your jackets and get out of my kitchen, Edge and Christian, you're done.'' They had an emotional hug. Christian was found laid out backstage later. Edge will not be revealed as the culprit. Have no idea who it is going to be yet. haha Obviously, people are going to accuse him. Keeping Edge as a heel and turning Christian face.

Billy Gunn is trying desperately to put the band back together. Billy interfered in the Summerslam title match to try and prove something. Triple H was not that impressed since he is not the WWF champion. Checkmate but Billy will not give up. He promises to hurt Austin in the main event of Raw. hahaha Cool story, Billy.

Bret is being a straight shooter.

Hit what felt like a good story in that Donnie J got picked up by USPW (didn't in the last few games) as well as Cougar who got picked up in all of my games, so I had Donnie drop the title in a 3 way featuring Fox Mask & Frankie Perez, which Perez won with help from Britney Hollywood, essentially turning heel, I know they don't have a heel/face divide but in my head cannon it was a heel turn, they then made out to celebrate, opened the next show and acted like overly arrogant d**ks, with Perez even cheating in the main event against a visiting Bulldozer Brandon Smith, his next foil for the coming few months will be Fox Mask who has taken exception to the new attitude. I had plans to have the Cobra's join Perez and form a power group, however in a tag defence against Rich & Famous Idol botched a move and put Marvel out for just over a year with a Herrniated Spinal Disk, which via surgery have managed to get this down to 9 months so now need to rethink the stable idea, will likely just go with Rich & Famous to be fair.</div></blockquote> Starting to think this save is cursed, not just for me but for every company as there has been almost not a day going by where someone isn't getting injured, Jack Bruce even tore his rotator cuff and is gonna be out 9 months. The latest in a long line of issues for me however, BHOTWG have decided now would be a great time to hire my CZCW Coastal Zone Champion & no.1 wrestler in the company Frankie Perez to a written contract, not only ruining my main story, but also ruining the story I was banking on for the rest of the year. Silver lining, the contract was agreed a few days before Welcome to the Costal Zone so can easily have him drop the title to no.3 wrestler Fox Mask (no.2 is Ross Henry, however he will be challenging COTT Champion Air Attack Weasel earlier in the night) seriously need to find some new main eventers from somewhere... Really enjoying this game and having to constantly adapt, never really had it as bad in a save as a smaller company.

Wrestlemania IX was our fifth straight Wrestlemania with a 100 rating, headlined by The Undertaker defeating the Heavyweight title against Rick Rude. The day after Wrestlemania, a game changer happened as Hulk Hogan resigned with the WWF after spending five years in the WCW. Hogan would make his return a few weeks later on Monday Night Raw but it was not a hero's welcome, as he would rip apart the WWF and it's roster. He would go on the next week to proclaim that a war was coming and he was not alone. First saying that it was Randy Savage who was on his side, than Ric Flair, and than the injured Bret Hart, Hogan would make WWF President Gorilla Monsoon nervous enough to interview the whole roster to find out who was on Hogan's side. The WWF Tag Team champions, Brian Pillman and Steve Austin, known as the Hollywood Blonds, turned out to be on Hogan's side. After defending their titles with the help of Hogan against Ric Flair and Randy Savage, the trio would announce the formation of the New World Order. Attacking Flair and Savage the next few weeks, the nWo kept promising more people and another would be revealed at the next PPV...after Bret Hart came down to ringside while the nWo was once again beating down Flair and Savage, many thought he was going to join in, only for the Hitman to save Flair and Savage before being jumped from behind by Mr. Perfect! The next month would see Hart watching on the sidelines, still injured, while being quizzed by Flair, Savage, and Monsoon if he was with the nWo, or still WWF. At King of the Ring, Hogan would finally wrestle in a WWF match, teaming with Mr. Perfect to defeat Flair and Savage. It was after the match, where Hart would accidentally lay out both Flair and Savage while aiming for Hogan that was the big story. The next night on Raw, Hogan would set his sights towards the Heavyweight title, still held by The Undertaker. After accepting Hogan's challenge, the entire nWo would attack the Deadman, only for Flair, Savage, and Hart to make the save. But after running the nWo away...Hart would attack The Undertaker! This would cause Gorilla Monsoon to make Hart the special guest referee for the Hogan/Undertaker match, telling Hart that after the match, he would truly know where Hart stood. With the tension running high going into our July PPV, nobody knew where Hart stood. His feud with The Undertaker (Hart being the only man to defeat Undertaker since he's been in the WWF) is legendary. But he's also proclaimed his hatred for the nWo and what they stand for. During the match, Hart called it right down the middle...preventing the nWo from getting involved, and not letting Hogan cheat...but at the end of the match, as Hogan made the pinfall, Hart would make the three count extremely fast, screwing the Undertaker out of his title. Where does Hart go from here? Is he with the nWo? Else where in the WWF, Owen Hart would have a classic feud with Shawn Michaels over the Intercontinental title, losing to the Heartbreak Kid twice thanks to Diesel, HBK's ever watchful bodyguard. Owen would challenge Michaels to a cage match, which proved to be HBK's downfall, as Hart would win the IC title for the second time in his career. The Tag Team titles, after being held by the Hollywood Blonds most of the year, are currently in the hands of bitter enemies. Kerry Von Erich and Rick Rude, after feuding with The Undertaker over his Heavyweight title, put aside their differences for one night to take on the Blonds, and with the help of Haku and Nikita Koloff, ending up winning the titles. They still hate each other and usually brawl after they defend their titles. For the first time in WWF history, the King of the Ring was held as a round robin tournament. In perhaps the biggest shock in WWF history, Jerry Sags would defeat Earthquake in the Finals to become the 1993 King of the Ring. After his tag team partner, Brian Knobbs was released for repeated drug violations, Sags has turned to the single ranks, putting on 90+ ratings against Owen Hart. I've been making some changes to my roster, releasing a number of wrestlers that have either been on the roster too long with nothing going on, or wrestlers I wanted to get experience elsewhere. I also brought up Bryan Clarke from development, named him the Nightstalker, gave him Jimmy Hart as a manager, and sent him on a nice winning streak to start his career. Brought Steven Regal back in and he's going to challenge Owen Hart for the IC title soon. Planning to let a few wrestlers contracts expire before bringing up some more from development. Gotta keep things fresh, ya know. I honestly wouldn't mind if a few of my older wrestlers decided to retire, forcing me to push the younger guys. So far, I've booked 1115 shows in just over eight and a half years in this save. It's amazing.</div></blockquote> It took me a while, but I finally finished 1993. Sting snapped Hulk Hogan's streak of winning the wrestler of the year. Ric Flair won veteran wrestler of the year for the second year running. New Japan Pro Wrestling was company of the year, while River City Wrestling was most improved. Sting beating Barry Windham at a Saturday Night taping won match of the year, but Wrestlemania was the best show for the fifth year running. For the Power 500, I finally had a good showing, with for wrestlers (Bret Hart, Ric Flair, Hulk Hogan, and Mr. Perfect) in the top ten. Brian Pillman (116)and Steve Austin (107) both jumped from the 100s to 22 and 24. Storyline wise, at Summerslam in August, Hulk Hogan would defend the WWF Heavyweight title against Ric Flair. Hogan would come out on top with help from the nWo. Mortal enemies Bret Hart and Undertaker would team up to defeat nWo members Steve Austin and Brian Pillman. Their victory was short lived as Hart would attack Undertaker as soon as the bell rang. Despite the lost, the Blonds would continue to dominated the WWF tag team scene, winning the 1993 WWF Tag Team Classic. Going towards the end of September, tensions between the nWo and the WWF would continue to rise with Flair challenging them to a War Games match. The WWF team of Flair, Savage, Undertaker, and Bret Hart would come up short with Hart costing them the victory. Hart and Flair would face each other at our October PPV, with Flair coming out on top. The Undertaker would become the first man since Hogan's return to defeat Hogan but it was by DQ, so the Heavyweight title would stay with the nWo. November would see Owen Hart, who lost the WWF IC title to nWo member Mr. Perfect in October, trying to convince his brother Bret to change his ways and join with Flair, Randy Savage, and The Undertaker to run the nWo out of the WWF. A Survivor Series match would be set for the PPV, pitting the four nWo members against Undertaker, Flair, and Savage. It was supposed to be Bret Hart joining them, but the week before, Flair and Savage would tell Bret that they couldn't trust him and wanted Owen on their team. However, at the Survivor Series PPV, the nWo would viciously attack Owen, knocking him out of the match. Finally wanting revenge, Bret would join with Flair, Savage, and The Undertaker but it wouldn't be enough as the nWo once again came out on top. The next night on Monday Night Raw, the nWo would celebrate, as they now held two victories over Team WWF, Hogan had the Heavyweight title, Mr. Perfect was the IC champion, and The Hollywood Blonds had regained the WWF Tag Team titles, beating The Smokin' Gunns at Survivor Series. The battle would continue throughout December with Bret Hart firmly the WWF's side. The nWo would end the year still on a high note, with the Blonds defending the Tag Titles against the Harts at our December PPV, and Mr. Perfect and Hogan beating The Undertaker and Ric Flair. The big news coming out of the PPV, however, was an injury to Steve Austin, which will see him out for the next two months. Can the nWo survive without one of it's strongest members? Elsewhere in the WWF, the legendary tag team High and Mighty would reform with Rick Rude coming to Jake Roberts aid in Roberts's battle against Ted DiBiase and his Corporation. Hoping that Austin recovers in time for him and Pillman to take on High and Mighty at Wrestlemania. Dream match for this game, for sure. Alundra Blayze held the Women's title from May until November, losing the belt to Manami Toyota. Still trying to build up some more women, but the division is mainly those two. Both Scott Steiner and Dusty Rhodes asked for their releases. Steiner was at the start of a major push, but got hurt facing a local wrestler, and was unhappy while hurt so it wasn't that hard to release him. Rhodes, also got hurt, but I tried to turn him into either a manager or a color commentator. Despite being 47 years old, Dusty wasn't feeling it and asked for his release. Trying to inject some new blood into my main roster, I signed Jeff Jarrett, Steven Regal, and Sean Waltman. Waltman, going as The Kid, has mainly been a jobber, but is getting a little push, teaming up with Nikita Koloff against Jerry Sags and Stan Hansen. Regal had a brief feud with Owen Hart over the IC title but hasn't done much since then. He's on my next big things list so I'm slowly building him up to be a major force. Jarrett, debuting with The Roadie at his side, is winning matches, keeps threatening to sing, but hasn't entered into a program with anybody yet. 1993 finally saw both the AWA and WCCW close, with WCW buying them both. Paul Heyman would leave WCW and take over the booking of ECW. AJPW would fall to cult status, having reached national in October. No big retirements or deaths happened and no major random incidents this year. I think 1994 is going to be a big year for the WWF. My shows are getting great ratings but the main event scene is getting up their in age. Neither Flair or Savage are on the time decline list but I feel like it could happen any day now. Especially Savage. Shawn Michaels feels ready to break out any time now, but with the nWo being the major heels in the WWF, where is the room for HBK?

Alan James · November 6, 2017

^ That is part of the challenge. Making room. If I can't then I usually dump them on vacation for a while. Of course, Shawn Michaels is not just anybody else. I'm sure you'll think of something.

Random picture from my game.

Undertaker takes Brock under his wing on his first night back. Nice. I brought Lesnar up from development. Pretty much doing the next big thing. Destroyed Crash Holly and this lead to Hardcore Holly making the challenge for No Mercy. The only question is, 6 minutes or 7? I'm thinking 6.

Cena pop has gone up to mid-card already. No stable wars in this game yet. Just the one stable. Like I mentioned earlier, Basic Thuganomics.

Bill Goldberg contract came up. I'm running this game as owner so no restrictions. Could have offered anything. I resisted the temptation. I'm quite proud of this. The main plan from now till next mania is Triple H vs Austin, think that is when Austin will finally get the win and maybe this will be his last run with the title.

The joys of sharing workers. Chris Jericho vs Jushin Liger match postponed after Liger suffers an injury on a NJPW show. Out for 26 more days with knee ligament damage.

No Mercy card

Austin vs Triple H (WWF TITLE. HIAC)

Kurt Angle vs The Rock

RVD vs Big Show (IC TITLE)

Hardyz vs Smooth operators (Malenko and Regal) (WWF tag team titles)

K-Kwik and the APA vs Cena, Samoa Joe and B2

Bryan Danielson vs Juventud Guerrera

Brock Lesnar vs Hardcore Holly

Worlds Greatest Tag Team vs 2 locals

Trying my best to blend the newcomers in. The Only finish I'm having problems with is RVD vs Big Show. Have 2 potential finishes for the Austin vs Triple H match. Triple was part of the Undertaker attempted murder. Undertaker is back and ready to return to some version of the Deadman. Undertaker will have no rivalry with Kane. Kane will celebrate when Taker returns because just like me, he wanted the supernatural Deadman back. Brotherly love at its finest.

Winter8905 · November 7, 2017

Just started NJPW in 2005.

Changed the schedule and I just book the PPV. Each PPV has a road to build up show.

2005 is a nice mix. Of the fujimamis just about active. 2nd gen guys like chono mutoh and hashimoti still active . Current gen can still be salvaged like Niagara and tenzen whilst the next gen are to be made ready for the push like make tans and shibata.

I read that this period was a bad time in the company.

In my game Inokis power has gone. His influence is lessened and NJPW is going to go back to storylines and the way it was in the golden era before the ultra real MMS thing overtook. Kinda like it became when Tans was ace and saved the company.

I have decided to add star power wherever I can to start with.

I've got Hashimoto. Mutoh and fujinami back and signed Kobashi , Brock and Sting.

These guys will hold the company together whilst Tans and co get ready.

This the perfect time to get some dream matches and eventually really pass the touch to Tana

Imagine if Tana's first reign and Naka next reign having wins over legends like Chono, Muta, Kobashi etc

Using Brock as the next Hanson

Building up Joe to be a beast.

Hired Ultimo Dragon , Taka The Great Sasuke to add more star power and help Liger out.

Hired AJ , Punk and Danielson as gaijin Juniors to build up.

Need to build up the tag division .

I've removed the Junior tag titles and I'm using the IWGP Tag Titles as open weight. It should make the one division stronger.

My first main PPV is Wrestle Kingdom 1. A bit unfortunate to start on the biggest event of the year but using this one to set up the rest of the year.

The Three Musketeers of chono mutoh and Hashimoto will all get wins. So will Liger who will defeat Ultimo Deagon.

Alan James · November 7, 2017

Another stable has been added. The Paul Heyman Network.

Paul Heyman

Brock Lesnar

RVD

Rhyno

''Double A'' Austin Aries

One of those weird mixtures with faces and heels. Eh, just remember that Vince promo. We're all too smart for boring ol good guys vs bad guys. Nah, RVD is the sole face here but I can make it work. I have Heyman saying that they don't like each other. Aries looks like he can be thrown straight into the light heavyweight title mix. Needed a top heel for it. Looks like he could be the guy.

I mentioned not being able to come up with a finish for RVD vs Big Show. Found my finish with the introduction of this stable and a 4 on 1 attack.

The Rock vs Kurt Angle will be a match of the year contender. First 100 of this save. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/cool.png.f00d2562b2c1d873a09323753efdb041.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

Hardcore Holly got 6 minutes with Brock. Crash and Hardcore took post-match f5. Big night for Brock.

Brought Tanahashi in for 5 competitive matches. Have a working agreement with NJPW. Bad chemistry with Jericho and Angle. Final match was against Danielson at No Mercy. This did deliver with a 84 Letting Danielson vs Juvi marinate. Want them both at midcard first before they collide. Both at lower at the minute so will not be too long. I think I'll just end up loaning Tanahashi again and again. Had a surprising email from Austin about how good he is. Surprising since most of Austin emails are about how much somebody is TRASH. Tanahashi ain't trash, son.

Basic Thuganomics vs K Kwik and APA ended in a good old-fashioned sports entertainment finish. Cena is coming along nicely being Austin's student.

Triple H defeated Austin in the cell (95) to become the five-time WWF champion. Lots of interference from Shane McMahon and X-Pac. I then got tired of every single show having an X-pac wrestled wasted note. Fired him.

Shane will take on Austin at Survivor Series. Shane is trying to prove himself worthy of being Vince's son. This leads to some tension between Triple, Steph and Shane. Triple refusing to get involved ''I'm done with Austin''. Yeah, Trips, that's what you think son. Triple H arriving at the building alone etc.

I have Vince lurking in the shadows here but not really getting him involved in anything. Bret is doing an awesome job as the WWE GM. No Stephanie out cutting his grapefruits off every week. I am the boss.

Eddie had one test fail and ended up cleaning up his act. Checked his profile out and he is now down to zero for everything except religion. Kudos.

Got rid of the Euro title and Hardcore title.

Created TV Title. Eddie Guerrero is the first champion. His storyline is beating newbie locals in decent matches while resisting the approach from Paul Heyman.

Survivor Series card.

Triple H vs Chris Benoit (30 minute iron man)

Steve Austin vs Shane McMahon (parking lot brawl)

The Rock, The Undertaker, worlds greatest tag team and CM Punk vs Chris Jericho, Kurt Angle, Kane, Malenko and Regal

Basic Thuganomics vs K-Kwik, APA and Hardcore Holly

Paul Heyman Network vs Big Show, Dudleyz and Haku.

Danielson, Christian, Liger and Tajiri vs Juvi, Val Venis, Justin Credible and Jerry Lynn. ( this will be a flawless victory for Christian's team.)

Hardyz not booked. Doing a storyline injury for Jeff. Basic Thuganomics attack on Raw. This is going to lead to a tag team title match at SNME in December or the Royal Rumble. We will see.

Hard_Times · November 10, 2017

Starting to think this save is cursed, not just for me but for every company as there has been almost not a day going by where someone isn't getting injured, Jack Bruce even tore his rotator cuff and is gonna be out 9 months.

The latest in a long line of issues for me however, BHOTWG have decided now would be a great time to hire my CZCW Coastal Zone Champion & no.1 wrestler in the company Frankie Perez to a written contract, not only ruining my main story, but also ruining the story I was banking on for the rest of the year.

Silver lining, the contract was agreed a few days before Welcome to the Costal Zone so can easily have him drop the title to no.3 wrestler Fox Mask (no.2 is Ross Henry, however he will be challenging COTT Champion Air Attack Weasel earlier in the night) seriously need to find some new main eventers from somewhere...

Really enjoying this game and having to constantly adapt, never really had it as bad in a save as a smaller company.

It's time to bring back Remmy Skye. A path to redemption, or damnation... He's ready, brotherdudejack.

Winter8905 · November 10, 2017

Yea. With CZCW you tend to have to change your champion a lot in the first half year.

Cougar always goes and so does Perez and Donnie J. Fox mask sometimes gets picked up and half the people you can bring in to main event tend to get picked up by Japanese Companies.

Remmy Sky usually lasts a while.

It's worth bringing in guys like Steve Flash and Clarke Alexander and Snap Dragon when he's aavailable to help get over the less popular guys you bring like Amazing Fire Fly and Ant Man, El Mitico Jr etc.

Winter8905 · November 10, 2017

There are a lot of options for CZCW however you will have to have plenty people getting ready for main event at any one time. Tag division is handy too.

1 tag team. American cobra are Main Eventers . The fighting Irish are upper midcarders. If needed they could do a job and hold the main event together in a raid. Irish I signed as midcard team to gave solid matches with my main teams but they impressed and hot over.

Road Warrior Hawk defeats “Adorable” Adrian Adonis via Flying Lariat when Adonis was distracted by Roddy Piper. An enraged Piper never got to the ring due to security blocking him, but did distract Adonis enough to cost him the match!

Semi Finals

In a grudge match between two rivals, Jake “The Snake” Roberts defeats Harley Race with a devastating DDT, connecting out of a nowhere.

“Macho Man” Randy Savage defeats Road Warrior Hawk via Count Out. Savage reversed a body slam at ringside and sent Hawk face first into the ring post. Clearly incapacitated by the shot, Hawk was unable to beat the referee’s ten count.

The Finals!

In a classic encounter (93 score), “Macho Man” Randy Savage defeats Jake “The Snake” Roberts to become the 1987 King of the Ring! Roberts manages to hit the DDT, but Savage instinctively rolls out of the ring and falls to the floor. When Roberts attempts another DDT, Savage manages to reverses it into a hot shot. Savage hits the Flying Elbow, thus earning the 3 Count and his crown!

Savage will now go onto Summerslam, for he has earned a WWF World Heavyweight Championship Match at WWF’s new pay-per-view! He will face the winner of Hulk Hogan & Andre The Giant, who will have their historic rematch…in a Steel Cage…at The War To Settle The Score!

Long Live The Macho King!

I haven't gone back to that previous game. Might at some point. The fact that I booked a show before I left means it still has a chance of being loaded up again. I had an episode of the lapsed fan on the other day, they were doing WM8. I've gone through this period many times but not really sure I ever had Flair leave WM8 as champion. Some of their talks got me interested. Started the rising storms game from 1991 and moved it forward to January 1992. Some of the contracts were messed up but it doesn't really matter to me. Have a Horseman type group going. Flair, Razor, Austin and Gabriel Divine (Triple H) Mr Perfect is the manager. Woke up one day and thought it would be a good idea to rename Triple H again. Gabriel Divine does sound pretty classy and elegant to be fair. He will be the closest to Flair in this group. They are called Franchise Dynasty. Wouldn't say the new generation is kicking off. Piper recently got beat down by ''Flair's runts''. Good one, Piper. I'm thinking Flair vs Piper at Summerslam. That will be the main storyline for now. Sid is on fire. Even got a 71 out of him vs Marty Jannetty. He is pretty much a tweener using heel disposition. He lost to Hogan DQ at Mania, ended up putting Hogan out afterwards with a couple of powerbombs. SHUT UP, SHUT UP. Hogan is out on holiday. Not sure what is in store for him. Justice then beat Warrior by count out on snme to earn a title shot at King of the ring. heel vs heel is on. Warrior started freaking out on the outside of the ring. Not being sick or any of that trash. He just ends up shaking and then runs to the back. One way to get out of somebody getting pinned. Papa Shango and voodoo make their way back to my world. Sid will be offered various items from Perfect in order to get Sid to pull out of the match. Sid may take the gifts, laugh like a maniac and end up giving Perfect a powerbomb. Undertaker is lurking about. Who knows? Tag team division didn't look so good at the start but it is starting to move in the right direction now. I still have a pretty decent Road Warriors. Hawk is giving me the typical problems. Money Inc, Natural Disasters, 2 Aces (Pillman and Shane Douglas) Polished Diamonds <img alt=":p" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> ( Austin and Razor) Demolition and Orient Express. Road Warriors vs Diamonds is the main feud. They will clash at King of the ring. Back to crappy ratings. I don't know, I think I prefer it this way. Build the rating up rather than jump into all 90s. Even with the lower rating, it was really disappointing that the Wrestlemania 8 opener with Shawn and Marty only got 68. Work rate isn't respected lol. Got Diesel in. Sherri sings the theme.Will start doing the Heartbreak Hotel soon. Chris Jericho started off as a poker player in one of my previous games. So much fun creating angles. It seemed like a bottomless pit of things you could do in the gambling world and throw them into wrestling. I know I talked about that gimmick in here some time ago. Anyway, this time he is being brought in as a protege of Piper. Going to make it that Jericho won some wrestling competition Piper was holding in Scotland. No amount of Buckfast was going to stop Chris on that night. Chris then asked Piper a question. Piper answered, I'm your man... King of the ring semis will be Dibiase vs Duggan and Pillman vs Shawn. The betting sites say Dibiase vs Pillman will be the final. Feud with Pillman and Shawn will come out of this. This will be the first real upset victory in this game. Flair beat Savage for match of the night 92 at Wrestlemania 8. Bret vs Piper got a respectable 80. Piper not happy about losing and I wasn't really forward thinking. It might be all cool in the world of today, but I can't really accept a guy coming off a loss and then moving into title contention. Fortunately, there is a long way to go before Summerslam. Time for some wins now. Savage is on the decline. Still getting booked strong. Thinking of a JBL/Shawn type storyline to keep him busy. The Genius makes some bad business deals and Randy has to bail him out. Savage ends up turning up in regular gear, no more colourful outfits and so on. Dibiase starts the mocking, he wants Savage to work for Money Inc. Bret is doing his thing. The ic champion. Unofficial stable with Bulldog, Owen and Jim. Bulldog beat Flair by DQ in England. The world title was on the line. It was cool to go to such a low rated place overall, in terms of popularity, yet get a 91 rating for their match. Bulldog will end up getting a rematch on Superstars for the title. Back in the USA. <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-username="DoubleA012" data-cite="DoubleA012" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="41174" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>Hey this is no big deal, and the beauty of TEW is customization but just in case you didn’t know or do it on purpose, Austin Aries actually goes by A-Double, instead of DoubleA!</div></blockquote> Cheers, DoubleA.

Started a new AAA game, using Kate Avatar as head booker, because she's an excellent enhancement talent who never complains. First things first- check the roster overview and see who's contract expires when. Lady Liberty has 563 days?!? Nope, nope, nope. Immediate release. On other playthroughs, she is nothing but trouble. Paige Croft and Steph Blake can be pains in the you-know-where too, but they deliver in matches. Sign Claire Winters, because she's cheap, and a solid (if green) performer.

Check the time decline notes in the creative meeting and- Suzanne Brazzle?!? No! I love her; she has always, always delivered for me in other playthroughs. Oh, well. At least it's just the one. Sometimes I've been smacked with J-Ro and Cherry at the outset.

Owner goals- $350k in 2 years (should be doable), can't dip below #25 in the rankings (easy, at least it has been previously), no luchadors (and for over 2 years; so much for hiring Electric Dreamer), no one with law problems, and, if I recall correctly, no MMA crossovers.

Shortlist several USPW Women's talent, just in case they get let go.

So, the plan for the first show? Everyone works in some fashion or another. Matches, angles, or ideally both. Want to throw Sarah Taylor & Simony Sentinel together in a tag team to make sure they don't have bad chemistry; I usually pair those two up to off-set the heel heavy tag division. "Sugar & Spikes" is what I call the pairing.

So, plan for the first year is to build money with just the monthly events in the home region. I might do a special event in the South West just to make sure pop doesn't dip, as I've had trouble with that in previous playthroughs. Also, try to build up the upper midcard and midcar, to prepare for the inevitable talent raids from USPW and NOTBPW.

Also, will probably send a non-aggression offer to QAW. I always soft sell them at the start, because hey, more women's wrestling is good, and if my workers can work more, they get better, right? The problem is they usually only sign my big stars, quickly jump to regional status, and then I get my tail kicked in the regional battles. We're nipping that in the bud this time. It will limit some of my choices, to be sure, but any big names that I don't sign, they probably will, and they'll cut someone to make room. That'll work great if they pick up Miss American Pie Lora Washington and cut Danielle Sweetheart; my experience with the former is you're paying for an average worker with poor star quality who's only saving grace is that she's moderately more over than the rest of your roster.

I'll also look at Cat Jemson's contract to see when that expires. I don't dare fire her, because she's in tight with Demelza Wade, and Wade is phenomenal and I don't want to anger her. But Cat is pretty much useless. In my experience, anything she can do, someone else on the roster can do better, and they can actually wrestle in matches.

Making room. If I can't then I usually dump them on vacation for a while. Of course, Shawn Michaels is not just anybody else.

He's been on my main roster since 1986, spend the first two years jobbing with Marty Jannetty before getting a push to the tag titles the next year. Him and Jannetty split in 1989 and Michaels has been solo ever since. He's won the IC title three times, always puts on great matches, no matter who he is paired with. Has reached Main Event push in the last year or so, but none of his feuds have really taken off and pushed him over the top yet. I have major plans for him in 1994 and hopefully he'll be able to cement a top spot for the rest of the decade. I'm always up for giving people vacations when I have nothing planned for them. Problem as been that I always seem to have plans for my top guys lately haha.

About to have Total Mayhem VI, in my TCW CV97 game, 2008!

Haruki Kudo, Ricky Dale Johnson, Thunder Hike, are all time decline. Hike has already "officially" retired and at Total Mayhem will get a Hall of Fame induction, being my first ever! RDJ is moving to a more managerial role. Kudo is going to be Chris Jericho and put a few more stars over with his constant 90 popularity.

On the flipside I have many rising stars. Gino Montero just entered the game world and is already amazing, 68 popularity from just my developmental promotion, 72 psych, 82 basics too! Mikey James is doing well. SUKI is doing great. Rocky Golden, Nicky Champion, Wolf Hawkins are all doing great. Honestly, shuffling out old stars for new stars is exciting and fun, and actually kind of sad. Really am enjoying this playthrough.

One major issue though! My women's division went from realistically main eventing PPVs to... being the 3rd title on my 2nd brand. That's not the worst, it's actually not bad they pull in high 80s and low 90s mostly but with Hike basically gone, Kit Hatoyama being on maternity leave (A Mito Miwa and Hatoyama baby!) and Ogiwara just being basically part-time... my women's division is weak.

Joanne Rodriguez is realistically my only star after that. Farrah Hesketh, Kristabel Plum, Raku Makuda, Sara Marie York are all solid but not not on the level of the magic 3. Ginko Kuroda (whom I adore) is a good talent but I haven't started her push yet, and she seems to struggle to get past 70 pop. April Appleseed and June Butler are both 35 and 37 respectively, so they're winding down too. Kinyue Mushashibo is actually my second biggest star outside of the Magic 3, lmao. Raven Robinson was a big prospect but she seems capped at 75 psychology, so 20 minute matches against anyone under 85+ish Psych is gonna get dinged. Just really tragic and I worry for this division when Ogiwara is gone, as Crusher Ichihara is already 40(!)

KPnutz · November 11, 2017

I've finally overcome my main problem of not being able to play a game past a couple of months because of falling out with the way things happen. So I'm only at Welcome To The Jungle 2016 from January but to me it's a lot of progress.

Big news in the world of SWF is that John Greed recruited Kurt Laramee, Joe Sexy and Abel Moonfall (formerly Zimmy Bumfhole) as well as bringing in Travis Century to create The Deadly Sins. They won the tag titles and north american title at Supreme Challenge 36.

Elsewhere, nobody has knocked Remo off his top spot in SWF, and Mikey Lau is the next guy to get a shot.

Andrew Hawkins debuted recently immediately targetting Skull DeBones for a match at WTTJ, wanting to take out the biggest and baddest guy to prove his dominance.

The Awesomeness have been targetting Angry Gilmore recently, telling him anger is "so last seasons emotion". Of course when Gilmore cost The Awesomeness their Tag Titles and caused them to drop the belts to Joe Sexy and John Greed of The Deadly Sins he had a lot to say about anger being in season all year round.

With the success of The Deadly Sins Randy Bumfhole was left floating in midcard limbo for a while, but he's started a fued with The Big Money Makers which are Brandon James, Big Bruiser Findlay and Bear Bekowski all accompanied by Krissy Angelle. This is based around James and Co laughing at how pathetic Randy is without his brother.

Speaking of The Deadly Sins they are currently Targetting Joey Morgan, trying to make more of a statement than they did when taking 2/3 belts SWF have.

Jack Bruce is still rocking on, but Rogue is looking to make this Bruce's retirement tour.

I'm also trying to push Frankie Perez up the card for an inevitable clash with Lau after he snaps and becomes Killswitch. Also trying to push Nelson Callum, Lassana Makutsi, Hollywood Bret Starr and Paul Huntingdon. To be fair to Paul he is just a big fued away from breaking that glass ceiling, but oddly one with Jack Bruce wasn't enough to do it...so I don't know what will be. And Richard wants me to push James Prudence and keep Skull DeBones popular too. Whatever you say boss! Anyone with any ideas for big fueds for Prudence (I'm thinking a Platinum Blondes split with Prudence going face) or Huntingdon feel free to share.

Nadia Snow won the Femme Fatale title from Sara Marie York, but got injured in the rematch, so vacated the title & held a battle royal to crown a new champ, which Cherry Bomb won.

In tag teams, Good Looking Bunny defeated Ros & Lilly to become champs; the former are feuding with Blake and Ammis, so that raises the stakes a bit.

Christy Higgins is feuding with the Uprising; Selina Svelte keeps interfering in title matches to protect her partner Talia.

Way ahead of you on the Dreamer love train. Unfortunately, I'm working under a 2+ year owner goal of "no luchadors". Foxxy I've tried before on other playthroughs, and she never made it past midcard. Good to know about the others, though my next hire will probably be Elsa Calvo. That little Goth spitfire rockets up the card.

Texasrangers13 · November 13, 2017

Been playing as Ring of Honor, starting in July 2017. Currently Feb 2018.

Cody was set to be a long-running champ with the Kiss The Ring styled gimmick... only to tear his ACL in what was supposed to be a simple PPV win over Alex Shelley at Survival of the Fittest. Needless to say, Shelley was not suppose to be the champ, so he dropped it relatively quickly to Christopher Daniels.

Meanwhile, Jay Lethal (the 6-man tag champ, with Lio Rush and Jonathan Gresham) won the Survival of the Fittest, guarenteeing himself a future title shot. He however immediately departed for a three month stint in Japan. Returning at ROH Anniversary to defeat Daniels and claim the ROH title. He also introduced his hand-picked successor for the 6-man belts that had gone dormant, as Flip Gordon joined Gresham and Rush.

The 6-man belts finally have a bit of a direction as BJ Whitmer leads a newly formed stable "The Occult" of Punishment Martinez and Tengu Kazma (KAZMA; Tengu being a word in Japanese for a demon-like dog/god).

The Motor City Machine Guns hold the tag belts and at Anniversary fought off the PROGRESS tag champs, The London Riots in a one-off type match that will lead into our UK tour upcoming.

Travis Banks won the 2018 Top Prospect Tournament, but in the process didn't have to face Chris Brookes who was injured in the semi-final and couldn't continue. They will face-off once Brookes is healthy (again tying into the UK tour).

Lastly, Kazarian is the TV champ. Doing battle with a variety of upper-mid type guys without a firm direction.

Started anew, because that last AAA game was cursed. People getting hurt left and right, losing money despite only running one show a month with no production increases, etc.

Starts off well, no time decline, economy and wrestling industry on the up. In addition to the monthly shows, I've added quarterly shows for neighboring regions, the second of which will be the next show.

Sara Marie York is the Femme Fatale champ, which has seen a fair amount of turnover. Previous champs include Cherry Bomb and Jaime Quine.

The downside is that Suzanne Brazzle announced her retirement. Why you gotta break my heart, Suzanne?

At the start, immediately cut Cat Jemson, Black Widow, Steph Blake, Paige Croft, and Lady Liberty, replacing them with Deborah Young, Joanna Silver, Elsa Calvo, Claire Winters, "Payback" Emma, and Vixxen as road agent. Also picked up Sandra Shine a few months later, as the roster is a bit heel heavy. Might turn Zoe Ammis face, but I'm always reluctant to commit to long term plans with her, because she almost always gets poached by USPW or NOTBPW. Other candidates for a turn include Ellie May Walton and one or both members of Rose & Lilly.

Take the monetary hit but run a weekly show as well as a monthly show. The quicker pop gain will see you getting back into the black faster.

HRTVAndrew · November 13, 2017

I haven't had a chance to play much, but my COTT game is starting to get REALLY good. Aaron Andrews is in the 90's in popularity and is feuding with Rick Law, who just won the world title but will drop it back to Andrews at the next PPV to blow off their feud. With how young he is, Andrews figures to be the leader of my promotion for a long, long time.

Meanwhile, Paul Huntingdon is feuding with Frankie Perez and has formed a stable called The Trust Fund, which also includes tag team champions Roger Cage and Sammy the Shark and Gargantuan. I'm not sure where this will go long-term, but for now, it's a fun upper-midcard heel faction.

In addition, I've landed two guys I'm really excited about. I won a bidding war for Edd Stone, who fits my product to a tee and will also come in handy for talent trades with NOTBPW. He can be very effective as either a face or a heel, and I'm really happy to have him. I also bit the bullet and signed Marat Khoklov, even though he doesn't fit my under-40 focus and isn't a spectacular worker. I only inked him to a six-month deal, which should be enough to give the rub to a few people who could use it.

Among the top candidates for that rub is Ernest Youngman, who beat Fumihiro Ota in his last match before retiring (still shocked at that, since Ota wasn't even in time decline). Right after that, I started a face turn and put him in a feud with US Champion Nelson Callum, and I'm stoked to see the kind of matches they put on since they're both excellent workers. Youngman is a future star, no doubt, and fans are starting to get behind him (he's in the 50's in popularity after the face turn).

cappyboy · November 14, 2017

Just started a new game to try a different approach to pre-booking. Instead of putting all my story segments in it all at once and getting bogged down by the clutter, I'm only officially pre-booking the current month and letting future months sit on the Notepad until it's their turn. Would still rather have a less clutteered pre-booking system like the prebooking calendar I posted about in the Suggestions forum or something similiar. This method precludes me from using the Notepad for other things I might track there like tag pairings attempted. But if it allows me to actually progress in games, oh well.

I'm currently flying the banner of Premier Championship Wrestling and using a handpicked, internationally minded roster that looks like this

MAIN EVENT

"Dustman" Bob Casey (H)

Mystery Mask [uC(F)]

Ray Snow (H)

Remmy Honeyman (F)

UPPER MID

Chikafusi Tadeshi (F)

Kirk Drury (F)

La Bestia Purpura (H)

Yuki Horigoshi (H)

MIDCARD

Lance Lott (F)

Liam Lutz (H)

Pat Rigsby (H)

Xavi (F)

LOWER MID

Lenny Mochin (H)

BROADCAST TEAM

Bill Oliver

Abi Romanov

REF

Rob Perkins

My current storylines revolve around "Dustman" Bob Casey trying to steal the PCW World Title out from Mystery Mask even though he won it fairly in the title tournament. Eventually though, I want them to unite as a team after Bob's held the title and some other champ emerges via gameplay. The second features Ray Snow trying to prove how bad-ass he is by feuding with Kirk Drury and Remmy Honeyman at the same time. And a get to know them story with Lenny Mochin and Liam Lutz as my first tag team, The Danger Men, discussing the rest of the roster from a British point of view. Essentially a foreign take on Raul La Motta and Apollo as The Veteran Express in OVW.
