What's going on in your game?


Recommended Posts

running one show a month is your problem. You want to push to making money faster. 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.

 

I can usually turn a profit on one show a month thanks to the custom merchandise controls.

 

Anyway, I'll try weekly shows in 2017, unless I get talent raided and have to pull in new workers.

Main storyline heading into 1992 was the removal of Jack Tunney as WWF president. Documents leaked, documents proving that Mr Tunney was indeed, on the take. I held wrestling court as a full episode story. Hulk Hogan even showed up in court and gave some damning evidence against that stinky Jack Tunney.

 

Sid got the ball rolling because he did not receive his world title shot against Ric Flair, despite winning a number one contender match.

 

Tunney has been replaced by Walter Heisenberg. Yes, I've gone all Breaking Bad after noticing his picture as I searched for another picture. I then thought, wouldn't it be cool to have Walter in this seedy world of pro wrestling? I do need a new president after all.

 

His first act was to cancel the Summerslam main event, it was set to be Flair vs Warrior vs Piper.

 

Ric Flair vs Hulk Hogan is the match all the Hulkamaniacs and Walter Heisenberg want dude.

 

Warrior vs Piper vs Sid will now be the number one contender match.

Some events that have happened recently in my CZCW save. Currently into June 2017.

 

AAA was bought out by SWF... which is good as they were my main rivals in the regional battles... but bad because that's one less womens promotion to help me build up some women for my new womens division.

 

 

Another bit of womens news and what I found the most odd was that Alicia Strong is on the way out of USPW... well that is unexpected and something I'm most certainly looking forward to taking advantage of.. currently I have J-Ro as my champion , defeating the women I bring in on a 1 date contract to get her over. Whilst I get Yuma maruya over from scratch.. I originally set them tow to be my main womens feud for years to come.. they will face each other a couple times a year on my big shows whilst both defeating my revolving door of women.. However I may have to put Strong into the mix and keep 3 women over.

 

An annoying thing is BHOTWG have put an offer in for Greg Gauge... a guy I've spent 18 months getting over and getting ready to be one of my top guys.. was just about to pull the trigger on him and boom.. 18 months of work gone. I don't mind PGHW taking guys on tour as I can work around that but... BHOTWG... come on.... luckily I have been able to sign Jefferson Stardust to replace Gauge.

 

 

In random news, Yushimi Mushashibo has had a bad run of things.... out for a year or so with a spinal Injury... is released from PGHW and 6 months on is caught in scandal involving homophobic comments... at 41... if he doesn't retire from his injury, he will be well into time decline by the time he isn't toxic anymore... poor guy.

 

It's a right pain being regional.. I get guys over... maybe too over and they get signed away.

I'm guessing you want make your way to Cult and push CZCW as high up the food chain as possible. In which case I can see how this would be a pain. For me, it's my raison d'etre. It's why I exist. I play to take guys that the game world neglects and make them something the big promotions might want.</p>

<p>Cappy XD I like to have an end goal like that but I also enjoy getting guys over and signed .. but I'd prefer it if it wasn't the guy I spent 18 months building up for the reason to be the face of my company to an extend XD. If Remmy Sky got picked up I'd be a little annoyed but I'd be happy at my work since He's stopped using drugs and his stats have risen a bit.</p><p> </p><p>

But Greg he had a lot going to be riding on him. </p><p> </p><p>

I have places on the card for the guys that are unemployed and not getting signed.. they appear in my opening multiman matches or in my pre show to improve stats and get noticed.</p><p> </p><p>

One of my graduates Swipe Romero... I signed for 6 months with the idea being if his stats improved by a certain amount I'd keep on giving him contracts... but alas after 6 months... his stats rose by like 2... It appears like he's limited.</p><p> </p><p>

But yea, my challenge is to get them as high as possible but keeping the Coastal Zone Style mostly intact.</p><p> </p><p>

Its not stupendous but its not horrible. Top row skills raise the slowest out of everything. Im my Road to Glory Challenge the top rope skills I didn't raise with rolls average a 50 pt growth over 7 years and three months. That's about .57 raise a month - although initially that was slow because he wasn't wrestling guys much better than him at first. That would would mean my UC raised probably about 3 pts in 6 months so 2 pts isn't bad.</p><p> </p><p> You can check the the potential of all of your guys under the age of 30. Set all your workers to Main Event for push. Then set 5 of your workers who are 29 and under to midcard. GO to the creative meeting and look at hot prospects.</p><p> </p><p> The first line tells you about their overness cap in order is</p><p> </p><p> Huge Star</p><p> Sky's the Limit</p><p> Big Star</p><p> Break Out Star</p><p> A Lot of Success</p><p> Dark Horse</p><p> </p><p> At a lot of success it is possible to push a person into the high 80s low 90s with just continued wins and good segments but its tough.</p><p> </p><p> For skill the order is</p><p> </p><p> Exceptional</p><p> Fantastic</p><p> Really Fine</p><p> Very Very Good</p><p> Very Good</p><p> Pretty Good</p><p> </p><p> So I'd check what these are before throwing your hands up. It doesn't sound to me like Swipe was doing that bad.</p>

<p>It was two's across the board top rows and basics. I can get away with giving them time with top row stats if he's making progress with the basics and Psyc. He just wasn't progressing enough. </p><p> </p><p>

He was having matches with people like 30/40 points better than him most of the time. so he should have increased a bit more. It was low for what I was prepared to put the effort into. it was going to be a good 4 years before he was serviceable. seeming as tho his stats were 20/40 across a lot of things.</p><p> </p><p>

Sometimes I will give guys more time if I like their picture or their Bio so I can sink my teeth into him/her.. but basic Bio, a pic I couldn't get into and stats rising at a poor rate. </p><p> </p><p>

At the rate he was going ... he may have been serviceable in like 10 years.</p><p> </p><p>

My current projects are Kid Fantastic and Kamikaze. Kamikaze as Superb Flashiness and average everything else. but he's at a point where he can hold his own and not sink ratings. in a couple of years his Ariel should be 70/80 and basics/psyc should be 70/80. He will be very good rounded high flier at 25 he's young and at decent level. Kid Fantastic is similar with superb flashiness and average ariel, has better star quality than Kamikaze but lower in most other things but at 20 years old.. by the time he's 25 he should be a well rounded if not excellent. I'm considering putting them as jobbing tag team eventually making them multi time champions.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

.............</p><p> </p><p>

In other news. </p><p> </p><p>

Greg Gauge and El Mitico Jr have been signed away by BHOTWG.</p><p> </p><p>

I have got Jefferson Stardust that I'm tempted to be the guy that dethrones Bryan Holmes for the top strap.. but unsure yet. Bryan to overcome Remmy but to lose to Stardust. A feud of straight lace v flashy arrogance. As for Holmes Extreme Title. I'm considering having him lose it to either Emerald Angel or Magnum Kobe.. Angel and Kobe I loaned for 5 shows last year and 6 shows this year, I love these guys and thye never leave WLW,so I bit the bullet and loaned them.. got their pop up and Magnum is current Upper midcard a couple more wins and he'll be ready to take the Extreme title.. however his high flying is very good but Emerald Angle is the best high flier in the world and it would probably make sense for him to beat the guy that is mocking his style . Angel and Kobe can then feud for the title maybe.</p>

<p>Pretty funny seeing Paul on there. I see him on a semi-regular basis in real life and it's funny to think he's in the game. Super nice and genuine guy. I'll probably pick him up in my game when he debuts.</p><p> </p><p> As for my game, I'm wishing I'd have done a dynasty as this is probably my favorite game I've run and had some really cool stuff happen. The story arcs I've had are my favorite I've done since playing this series. Just looking through some prior posts and saw someone quoted me;</p><p> </p><p> </p><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="41174" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>The_Monk:<p> wait you put a fatal four way won with those guys for THE world title on Nitro and had it change hands....... wow that's WCW booking right there lol</p></div></blockquote><p> </p><p> Yes. A couple of different reasons;</p><p> </p><p> 1. I like to keep things fairly true to life in booking methods of companies. This is definitely a thing WCW would and had done.</p><p> </p><p> 2. I already had my PPV main events decided and didn't want to alter the path too much. I knew what I wanted to do heading into Starrcade and the Starrcade PPV itself and simply didn't have time to do it on a PPV in between. In addition, I wanted to give Hart a decent length of a title reign and since I obviously couldn't have done the title match at Fall Brawl, I figured the next night on Nitro was the next best option. I didn't want to wait until Halloween Havoc to put the title on him.</p><p> </p><p> As for what's happened since my last update;</p><p> </p><p> (WCW 1998 mod- Now in Feb. 2000 - Week 1)</p><p> </p><p> I said how Bret Hart finally captured the world title on Nitro the night after Fall Brawl. So Hart kicks off October 1999 with the title. Well in Week 3 of October, the WWF goes to International size, moving into the #1 position again because they're more popular than me in Canada.</p><p> </p><p> Vader, who was in a fantastic feud with Goldberg, was having his exclusive PPA contract coming up. Since he's a freelancer in the game, he didn't want to re-sign with me even though I made him relevant again. Well the WWF swooped in and signed him. They also signed Bigelow away from me so those two are now teaming together in the WWF.</p><p> </p><p> I opted not to renew Chris Benoit's contract so he left me in November.</p><p> </p><p> Rick Rude had continually been avoiding a rematch with Sting. After Sting tried locking down their final match for Halloween Havoc, Rude enacted his title rematch against Bret Hart. Rude came up short at the PPV though.</p><p> </p><p> Buff Bagwell won the US title from Raven at Havoc. Normally I'm not too high on Bagwell but he has been consistently putting on good matches for me and his angles have been well received. I put the TV title on him earlier in the year but he had a rash of injuries that really hurt his title run. He continued working really well when he came back so I thought I'd see how a US title run went. I wanted to also move Raven out of the US title picture and push him more toward the main event because he was killing it with promos.</p><p> </p><p> The West Texas Rednecks (Curt Hennig & Barry Windham) beat Harlem Heat for the tag gold at Havoc. Following the PPV, Harlem Heat went their own ways so Booker could resume his singles push. I was mainly just trying to get Stevie Ray's popularity up to meet an owner goal (I failed) but all in all, I had a fun time pushing Stevie Ray. The Rednecks then began a feud with the Dudley Boys, in an attempt to get their popularity up.</p><p> </p><p> The night after Havoc, Jericho was interrupted by Ric Flair, which kicked off a feud between them. Flair didn't like Jericho claiming to be "the man" and told Jericho he's not the man until he beats the "Dirties Player in the Game."</p><p> </p><p> Heading into WW3, Hart vs. Hogan for Starrcade was locked down. Booker T felt confident heading into the big battle royal, as he won it the previous year. It wasn't meant to be though, as Goldberg won and became the #1 contender. A side note- I don't choose the winner of the WW3 battle royal. I let the road agent decide. Did the same thing the prior year.</p><p> </p><p> WW3 also saw Ric Flair go to a time limit draw against Chris Jericho, prolonging their feud.</p><p> </p><p> Prior weeks had seen tension between Double A and the rest of the Horsemen. Arn didn't like how everyone seemed to be working on their own agenda rather than the Horsemen agenda. Flair had been more caught up with the Dangerous Alliance over the Horsemen. The night after WW3, Flair accused Double A of not being around for the Jericho match and saying it wouldn't have been a draw if Anderson had helped him. Meanwhile, Jericho challenged Flair to a 30 minute Iron Man match at Starrcade, which was accepted, with a laugh, by Flair; saying he coined the term "Iron Man."</p><p> </p><p> Goldberg and Hogan (who had a brief, non-physical run in at WW3) had some tension between them. Goldberg wanted a title match at Starrcade. Hogan said the main event at Starrcade was his against Hart. The Nitro after WW3 saw Goldberg run in and spear Hogan down after the main event. This set up Goldberg vs Hogan the next week on Nitro, with the winner deciding who would face Hart at Starrcade. If Goldberg won, the match would be a 3-way. If Hogan won, the match would stay Hart vs Hogan.</p><p> </p><p> The next week on Nitro, the main event was Hogan vs Goldberg. Hogan ended up beating Goldberg, but not how you'd think. Hart came down and while the referee wasn't looking, blasted Goldberg square in the head with a steel chair. A leg drop sealed the win for Hogan and Nitro ended showing Hart standing over a downed and bloody Goldberg with a steel chair in his hand and Hogan backing up the ramp laughing. Hogan claimed on Thunder that Hart was "working with him."</p><p> </p><p> The following Nitro, Hart gave his side of the story. He said in no way, shape, or form was he on Hogan's side nor does he even like Hogan. He said that he hit Goldberg with a chair and cost him his match because for a decade he has tried to get Hulk Hogan in a match one-on-one and now that he's locked Hogan in and he can't back out, he wants to keep it 1 on 1. Goldberg still was none too pleased though. Hart, wanting no part of Goldberg, did his best to avoid him. Hart was challenged the next week on Nitro by Goldberg. They had a match but it ended in DQ after Hogan hit Hart. Hogan's reasoning was that there was no way he wanted to face Goldberg, and who can blame him. Hogan ended up eating a spear though.</p><p> </p><p> Flair turned on Double A but Jericho ended up coming to help out the Enforcer. Savage and Scott Steiner were in a heated, physical feud with one another. Sting vs Rick Rude was locked down for Starrcade and my Lex Luger redemption run was cut short after he was caught using hard drugs. Luger responded positively for it though, so I plan on bringing him back after the time limit is up. I'm having fun bringing back guys to build back up their popularity and send them off with a proper run. I was never big on Luger, but he was massively over in 1996-1997 and it's fun to get them back to that level.</p><p> </p><p> Starrcade came and went, which saw Hart finally defeat Hulk Hogan, cleanly, I might add. Sting defeated Rude to end their long feud. Jericho beat Flair in a 30 minute Iron Man match. Bagwell kept his US title. I ran into a rut with Bagwell. Despite remaining solid, I have nothing for him. I've been pushing La Parka (to meet another owner goal), and Lance Storm has been a long-reigning TV champion.</p><p> </p><p> Flair claimed he still wasn't finished with Jericho and challenged him to the ultimate Iron Man - a 60 minute Iron Man match. Jericho promptly agreed and the match was signed for Souled Out.</p><p> </p><p> DDP wanted Hart in a match, which was accepted two weeks after Starrcade on Nitro. That match shockingly saw DDP beat Hart for the world title (Yes, another Nitro title change!)</p><p> </p><p> Souled Out saw DDP defend the title against Hart. Jericho again bested Flair in the 60 minute Iron Man which finally ended that feud. Those were about the only notable things that happened for Souled Out. The Filthy Animals (Rey & Kidman) are now feuding with the West Texas Rednecks. AJ Styles (who is progressing along excellently) is feuding over the TV title with Storm. Savage and Steiner are still feuding, which will come to an end at SuperBrawl.</p><p> </p><p> I have signed Johnny Curtis (Fandango), Brock Lesnar, and TJ Wilson to developmental deals. John Cena has just gotten in the game and I have pending negotiations with him. I have won the last couple of National Battles and feel I'm slowly working my way back up to #1.</p><p> </p><p> On the WWF side, Big Show just won the Royal Rumble. Psycho Sid is the world champion. Mideon is the IC champion and Phil La Fon is the European champion. Triple H just returned from an ACL tear that kept him out for 6 months.</p><p> </p><p> I'm in that awkward stage where I don't know if I should change my figurehead from Hollywood Hogan. I want to make Jericho that guy but I am nervous because of his low star quality (81). My other thought is to make Goldberg the new figurehead.</p><p> </p><p> Sorry for the really long post guys....I guess I need to do more frequent updates.</p>

<p>I am starting a January 2018 WWE Game, I have a some tenative WrestleMania match ideas that I might want to build up to after the Rumble</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Universal Championship</strong></p><p>

Brock Lesnar © vs Roman Reigns</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>WWE Championship</strong></p><p>

AJ Styles © vs ???</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Control of RAW</strong></p><p>

Jason Jordan (with Kurt Angle) vs Triple H (with Stephanie McMahon)</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Intercontinental Title Match</strong></p><p>

Bray Wyatt © vs Braun Strowman</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>United States Championship Match</strong></p><p>

Baron Corbin vs Rusev</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Non-Title Match</strong></p><p>

John Cena vs Randy Orton</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Non-Title Match</strong></p><p>

Shinsuke Nakamura vs Bobby Roode</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Debut Match</strong></p><p>

Kenny Omega vs ???</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

The only ones that are a definite lock are the World Title Matches and Jordan vs HHH, my two questions are who should challenge AJ Styles for the title since I am using up most of SDs Main event Roster for other purposes ? should I go with a suprise midcard push or bring someone over from RAW/SD ? as far as if I sign Omega should I have him debut against someone with starpower or someone who can job to him without a problem, still uncertain as to what Brand I want him to go should I sign him.</p>

<p>Planning a Hogan heel turn in 1993. Just not sure about execution yet. <img alt=";)" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/wink.png.686f06e511ee1fbf6bdc7d82f6831e53.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p>

It all begins when Flair makes Hogan submit at Summerslam 1992. (in an awesome 98 match.) The top face quits? <img alt=":eek:" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/eek.png.0e09df00fa222c85760b9bc1700b5405.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Of course, Hogan being Hogan, he will deny that he submitted. Sort of have it like Hogan was trying to free himself, in a lot of pain after his legs being worked on all night, he grabs hold of Earl Hebner. This was the third time Flair had Hogan in figure four this match. (a detail in the story that helps out Earl) So Earl calls for the bell and Flair retains. No screwy ref finish here. Earl is playing it straight.</p><p> </p><p>

Hogan pleads with Earl after the match and grabs him, before quickly letting him go. Not ready to turn Hogan into Austin and unleash stunners. Would have liked to though. Just for a laugh. </p><p> </p><p>

We end up doing things like having fan votes and surprisingly (or not, everybody was sick of Hogan by now) we have a fair percentage voting against Hogan. </p><p>

</p><p><em>

The Hulkamaniacs are turning on me, dude. We gotta do something, brother. Maybe let me drop the leg on the unbeaten Vader, man. That will surely help Hulk Hogan.</em></p><p>

<span>http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh148/pistoljocke/WWF/HulkHogan1992.jpg</span></p><p> </p><p>

Undertaker was heard cracking his knuckles in the background.</p><p> </p><p>

Taker lost to Vader at Summerslam 1992. Botched interference from Paul Bearer. This was after Vader put Taker out for a while. haha Imagine this was Hogan, he would get put out and there would be absolutely no chance of him losing the match. Taker is magnanimous and knows what is best for business, Jack. </p><p> </p><p>

Brian Pillman and Dean Malenko did me proud. Malenko is only at lower mid-card so the fans must have appreciated the work. Opened the show with 84. Had it at 13 minutes (15 kayfabe) time limit draw. </p><p> </p><p>

Did what I always do, created a light heavyweight title and made Pillman my first champion. Face this time. Not going to say he is always my go-to guy but he has been a lot of the times. Just thinking back to childhood again and Flyin' Brian coming out with that awesome music. </p><p>

 

</p><div class="ipsEmbeddedVideo"><div><iframe width="200" height="150" src="https://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/Tq8QZjA-leM?feature=oembed" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" title="FLYIN BRIAN PILLMAN'S 2ND WCW THEME"></iframe></div></div><p> </p><p>

Polished Diamonds finally defeated the Road Warriors to win the tag team titles. Summerslam was a very good night for Franchise Dynasty. ''We're gonna party tonight. Party all night, chico. Roads Warriors, Hulk, Barry Hardy (lost pre-show match to Gabriel Divine), you're all invited. WOOOOOOOOOOOOO''</p><p> </p><p>

Roddy Piper defeated Ultimate Warrior and Sid in the triple threat match. An unofficial number one contender match. Warrior took the pin after more interference from Shango. Warrior to put him out for good at Survivor Series. Making the world title with a real-life mix. Flair won't have to defend for a certain amount of time. </p><p> </p><p>

Bret Hart surprisingly defeated Earthquake to retain the IC title. A surprise to me because the whole plan was to make Earthquake the new IC champion. </p><p> </p><p>

<em>Plans change. </em></p><p>

<span>http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j19/xpaulocaustx/DaveMeltzer.jpg</span></p><p> </p><p>

Last minute I decided to go with the Bret loses the IC title to Shawn route instead. </p><p> </p><p>

Planned main event for Wrestlemania 9 is Flair vs Bret. Back to the Hogan turn for a second. Bret eliminates Hogan in the rumble. This will be another one of those straws that will eventually break Hogan's back. Hogan can turn on Bret in a tag match and then they feud over the title. Bret will win. No plans to extend Hogan contract. Going to keep him relatively strong and when it runs it, it runs out. Just have to make sure I bonus him so he will stay happy, dude. </p><p> </p><p>

Money Inc defeated Randy Savage and The Genius. Genius cost this match some rating points. I don't really know where I'm going with this. Dibiase is once again the king. Genius has to work for him. Wing it, wing it, wing it.</p><p> </p><p>

Double count out with Shawn and Boss-Man. They will have a spend the night in jail match on Saturday Nights main event. Going to have Shawn win. Sherri plays injured after Boss Man accidentally hits her. She then wallops him with her shoe. </p><p> </p><p>

No Nailz. This time, Big Bossman does take a brutal beatdown when he spends the night in jail. From............</p><p> </p><p>

<span>http://i490.photobucket.com/albums/rr269/martintew/SidVicious.jpg</span></p><p> </p><p>

Why not? Sid was beaten up when he was spending some hard time all them years ago. lol Yes, Bossman obviously was the one to give him the beating. Suspend disbelief as to why Bossman has not recognised Sid. Let's just say that Sid had black hair and was a late bloomer in terms of height. </p><p> </p><p>

Sid conspires with a guard that doesn't like Bossman. ohhhh. Justice will then be served. It's good to be invested in your own storyline. This might be my number one at the minute. When I went to bed the other night. Love it when that happens. Just came to me, what will I do with Sid now? Ahhhh, that's what I'll do. </p><p> </p><p>

Some gruesome WWF magazine shots to come. Make sure you check it out.</p><p> </p><p>

One last thing. Don't mean to go into women are objects mode, it's just, I never really agreed with Magnificent Mimi's sex appeal rating because I always had the same picture for her. Looked bland. Sorry. Finally got some new pictures installed for this game and employed her to work as Walter Heisenberg's chief of staff. She just told Hogan that Walter could not see him at the minute. Then I saw this picture. xoxoxox Her role will increase. </p><p> </p><p>

<p>Me again. </p><p> </p><p>

The superstars following Summerslam set things in motion for SNME 32. I usually book the first show after an event to get things rolling, then auto book for 2 weeks while making certain adjustments. Auto booker is quite daft at times but still better than nothing. Does save time. Go home show always gets the full attention. </p><p> </p><p>

The main event will be Bret Hart vs Ric Flair. Neither title will be on the line. Flair win or draw. Leaning towards Flair win. Bret will lose the IC title to Shawn at SNME 33. He will regroup after these disappointments. Graduation.</p><p> </p><p>

Hogan was beaten down by Franchise Dynasty on superstars. Not a full-on beating. More of a light beating to tease Hogan. Because nobody would come out to help him. Seems that Hogan's claims of the conspiracy have not gone down well. Brother Bruti is still available for angles which means he is available for a beatdown. Yes, Hogan still has one friend. </p><p> </p><p>

Hogan will spend the next few weeks doing sponsor work and making wishes around the world. An interview on sky tv is expected. He will question Walter Heisenberg. ohhhhhhh. Heisenberg ain't no Tunney, Hulk. You have been warned. </p><p> </p><p>

I did a little detective work. As you do. Both Steiner Brothers have 38 days remaining on their contracts. I'm going all out to get them. I need them. My tag team division only has 3 face teams. Road Warriors are pretty much done as far as prime intimidating performance goes. Two Aces(Pillman and Douglas) are being sacrificed a little because Pillman is the light heavy champion. Owen Hart and Davey is the other team. That's what they're called. Team name will never come to me for these 2. </p><p> </p><p>

Polished Diamonds (Austin and Razor) need a team to feud with. They will question the strength of the teams in the division. Then The Steiners will show up. Hopefully. </p><p> </p><p>

Found another heel team randomly. Calling them cool as ice. So creative. Paul Roma is cool and Dean Malenko is the Iceman. Works for me. </p><p> </p><p>

<img alt="nice.png" data-src="https://s7.postimg.org/pllrcm00r/nice.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p>

Chris Jericho got a 70 with Barry Hardy in a 4 minute match. That amazed me. You know how it is, right? You bring the guy up and he has a few 50s, maybe the odd 40 at the start. Helped that they have great chemistry and Jericho must have motivated Hardy because I got a message about Jericho cracking knuckles before their match. You're going to job and you're going to job good, maaaaaaaaaaaan. </p><p> </p><p>

To be fair, Jericho's pop is up a bit more than the usual promotion from development. He has done a few segments with Piper. Already thinking ahead. Do something that we have yet to see in the world of wrestling. The protege turns against his mentor.</p><p> </p><p>

Randy Savage will put it all on the line against Dibiase. Going the poker route again. They will clash in several segments at SNME. Will there be a dodgy dealer? Yes, of course. IRS. It will be some kind of Royalty Poker that no normal person has seen before. How will Savage overcome these odds? Because I am the cream, oh yeah. Savage wins and all debts are gone. Dibiase does not take too kindly to this. He pays Crush to give Lanny a hiding. Talking collapsed lungs or something even more sinister. Savage in tears. This will lead to a 3 month holiday for both of them as Savage is beside Lanny's bed. Savage vs Crush coming a year earlier. Wrestlemania 9. </p><p> </p><p>

Jim Duggan is going to WCW and I put up no resistance whatsoever. <img alt=":p" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Vader has been the chosen one to give him a farewell beating. </p><p> </p><p>

Slaughter is on his way as well.</p><p> </p><p>

Skipped a bit and some contracts are coming up. Time to go for the Steiners. I might let Warrior go. I don't have much for him or planned apart from Papa Shango. And who wants to see that? I never know what to do with Lex Luger. I think about the narcissist, he can come out and pose, but what next? No USS Intrepid plans or anything. I did think that was a superb angle at the time.</p>

<p>In my current AAA game, USPW just snatched... <em>Senior Referee Dwight Kumas?!?</em> Of all the talent I expected to have poached, he wasn't one of them. Very talented referee (and AAA Hall of Famer), but... Huh.</p><p> </p><p>

Anyway, made an offer to the currently unemployed Pee-Wee Germaine to replace him.</p>

<p>The user character in the game is Vince McMahon. No interest in getting involved with anything. He is just going to be the ALRIGHT ALRIGHT HAHA guy forever in this world. </p><p> </p><p>

I took my mind back to 1992 and decided to test Warrior. He failed. <img alt=":eek:" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/eek.png.0e09df00fa222c85760b9bc1700b5405.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> He was then fired. Like I said in the previous update, I had nothing for him. </p><p> </p><p>

Released The Mountie. </p><p>

Savage, Lanny and Bossman all have 3 months off. </p><p> </p><p>

Chris Jericho and Steve Austin are next big things. Shawn has just graduated to the main event.</p><p> </p><p>

Owen, Knobbs, 2 cold, Jericho and Sam Houston are hot prospects. Sam Houston? You know what, I'm going to do something with Sam Houston. It's time. Do something that I've never done before. Oh yes, that's right. I never do anything because he is always stoned or drunk. Let's see how it goes this time. Haven't really used him at all in this game. </p><p>

</p><p><em>

I ain't losing to Bret, Vin dude. Not for all the herbs in Amsterdam, brother. Think about what you're asking me to do. Think about what it would do to all my little Hulksters. (those that have not yet turned against ya, you mean?) The legacy of Hulkamania will not be tarnished by Bret Hart, man. Bruce Hart is not fit to lace my red and yellow boots. Hulk Hogan vs Brian Knobbs in the main event of Wrestlemania 9 is the way to go. This is the match the world wants to see, man. I'll do the right thing, I'll give Brian the rub. Brian Knobbs might just be your next Hulk Hogan. Think about that. Go and ask the only Hart that matters, Jack. Go and ask my man Jimmy Hart. He'll tell ya, brother. </em></p><p>

<span>http://i255.photobucket.com/albums/hh148/pistoljocke/WWF/HulkHogan1992.jpg</span></p><p> </p><p>

I've gone through the September and October SNME since the last update. </p><p> </p><p>

Ric Flair defeated Bret Hart in the main event of September SNME. The match got 90. Can definitely do better. Bret was still UM. He is now ME. </p><p> </p><p>

Ric Flair promo after the match, he praised Bret. Said Bret is a real wrestler unlike that imposter Hulk Hogan. Even shook his hand. This is all part of turning Hulk to the dark side. </p><p> </p><p>

No match for Flair at the October edition. He does not have to make another world title defence until Royal Rumble. He can choose his challenger, Vader, Piper or Sid. It is going to be Flair vs Piper. Quite possibly the end of Piper in WWF. How we get here. Flair challenges Piper to a traditional Survivor Series match. If Piper's team wins and Piper survives, Piper will get the title shot at Royal Rumble. </p><p> </p><p>

Shawn defeated Bossman. Bossman didn't seem concerned about heading to jail. Was looking forward to seeing some of his old comrades. Oops, haha, Bossman is like Brad Bellick. He will soon realize that the guards were upset about the way he used to run things. Sid ends up getting Bossman in the yard. </p><p> </p><p>

<em>I'm gonna kill you, Bossman!! </em></p><p>

<span>http://i1091.photobucket.com/albums/i387/thunderwill/TEW/th_SidVicious2.jpg</span></p><p> </p><p>

He did not kill him, thank goodness. Not yet anyway. <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>

Sid and Crush are getting along nicely. Al Burke is hanging around with them. All started when Crush defeated Jim Powers in 4 minutes. Sid comes out, what will he do? He ends up praising Crush's work (Lanny suffered unspeakable injuries). Crush said he admired Sid's work. They make plans to surf later on. </p><p> </p><p>

Title change* Shawn won the IC title, defeating Bret Hart at the October show. Yet to run it but it has been booked. Owen Hart botched interference cost Bret the match. He only got involved because Sherri and Diesel kept interfering. Planning ahead for the eventual turn. This is the first chapter. A feud I have to do again. The best bro vs bro feud I've ever seen. No real damage this time. Shawn will be cocky and thank Owen for his help etc. Thinking I should follow this up with Shawn vs Owen.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

Title change* Dean Malenko defeated Brian Pillman. Malenko was impressing me and gut told me to give him the title. A stunt bump went wrong and left Pillman at Malenko's mercy. Pillman only managed 2 successful defences. Immediate rematch at October. This is another time limit draw. Cornette will say that Pillman is now all out of chips. No more shots. Pillman will ask Tara for another shot, she says Jim Cornette is right. You must earn another shot. </p><p>

,</p><p>

Steiner Brothers debut was held back a bit. They made their debut at the October event. Orient Express defeated them. We gotta teach them Steiners how to work the WWF way. ALRIGHT HAHA. yeah, right. Please take my booking licence now if I would consider such a thing. Being a bit hard on Vince here. They do their weird stuff but Orient Express win is too mad for him to consider. Steiners with a convincing win. No plans to rush the match against Polished Diamonds. </p><p> </p><p>

Feud with Natural Disasters and Money Inc will keep Steiners busy. </p><p> </p><p>

Hulk Hogan is keeping out of the public eye. Might just keep him there until the Royal Rumble. Plan in my mind has Hogan entering at number one, he is the iron man. lol Almost goes the distance. Bret comes in around 20. Bret and Hogan end up as final 2, Bret wins. Instead of Hogan doing his usual rumble elimination thing, he will shake Bret's hand instead. </p><p> </p><p>

I'm thinking of doing something a little different in terms of how Wrestlemania ends. Bret will defeat Flair, Hogan might even assist him because Flair will have assists. Hogan will then attack Bret after the match, drop the leg. push the title in his face. No celebration for Bret. No immediate promo for Hogan like 1996. That will be saved for the first episode of Monday night raw. The next day. </p><p> </p><p>

Undertaker and Vader have been brawling a lot. They will have their second 1 on 1 on Survivor Series. Buried alive. Think it is time for Taker to win. Vader doesn't get pinned. All good. </p><p> </p><p>

Taker has a side feud with Papa Shango going on. Shango says the urn is not reaching its true potential. Only he can unlock the mysteries. blah blah supernatural bs blah. I'm still interested in it. Thoughts of Kama and the necklace. This will be far better. Can be more creative with Shango than I could be with Kama. </p><p> </p><p>

Austin and Razor both had singles matches on Oct SNME. Volkoff is kept employed to lose to everybody. Easy work for Razor. Austin had a tougher match, I gave him 16 against Marty Jannetty. </p><p> </p><p>

The goal as far as Austin is concerned. I'm going to keep these guys together for a long time. We're only heading into 1993 so no stone cold plots yet. In the end, he is turned on by Franchise Dynasty. Pretty sure the last time I was updating my game here, Austin was turned on by somebody. Going to keep him away from Bret for a while in this one. Change something. Different players involved this time. </p><p> </p><p>

Austin and Razor will eventually have hair vs hair match. Think we all know who wins. This unleases Stone Cold.</p>

<p>So, for my AAA game, Raven Nightfall has announced her retirement, which is not a huge loss. Talia Quinzel recently made the jump from Upper Midcarder to Main Eventer, so she'll fill out the current vacancy in our main event heel scene.</p><p> </p><p>

I'm not sure what to do with Tracy Brendon, another of our main eventers. Of our 3 top babyfaces, she has poor chemistry with two of them.</p><p> </p><p>

Finally got to D+ pop in the North West, so now the majority of my shows will be in the South West, which is now at E-. After that, I think the next area of attack will be Alberta or British Columbia, as I have several former NOTBPW stars, so that should make it easier to get those up from an F+ to something hire. Provided they don't decide that they really did want to keep them and rehire them out from under me.</p><p> </p><p>

Currently, I only have one negative influence in the back, and that's Lily Snyder, which took me by surprise; nothing in her behavior tab suggested I'd have problems with her, or at least she doesn't have "usually a negative influence". After causing a fight with Sally Anne Christianson, she's on probation.</p><p> </p><p>

I had been trying to groom Deborah Young for the main event, but she's slipped down at bit, which is actually pretty good. Despite being more over in the North West than any of my main eventers, she was still lacking in some areas, particularly in-ring psychology. (She also gave an interview, apparently; first time I saw that on the news feed for one of my stars, but then I use the partial advance so I miss a lot of it). Currently, she's in a feud with Claire Winters for the Top Contender's Title, since they have great chemistry together.</p><p> </p><p>

For the tag team division, Good-Lookin' Bunny is only semi-active, as Katherine Goodlooks has been Main Event ready for awhile. The Uprising is about to join them, as Talia Quinzel has cracked that glass ceiling as well, and Selina Svelte might not be far behind (both are former Femme Fatale champs, both of who's brief reigns took me by surprise because I hadn't paid attention to what the auto booker set up on the weekly show).</p><p> </p><p>

So, that leaves our current line-up of The Anti-Establishment (Pamela Rojo & Hellcat Hernadez; heels), Electric Blue (Electric Dreamer and Aquila... uh... however the rest of it goes; faces), Queens of the Damned (La Hija Del Diablo & Queen Amazon; heels), Ava Anderson & Lily Snyder (faces, despite the latter's backstage shenanigans), and the reunited team of Debbie Rose & Kate Lilly (babyfaces). The only main issue here, aside from the aforementioned backstage drama, is that there's a bit of a disparity in card status, with La Hija being the most noticeable, as she's an opener. If pressed, I have another heel team ready- Sally Anne Christianson and Kinuye Mushashibo are "The Northern Conquest", a stable of former NOTBPW wrestlers running an invasion angle. I MIGHT have Amber Allen join them; I would have done it as soon as they showed up, but Amber had been with me for a while as a babyface, and I got the "too soon to turn" note.</p><p> </p><p>

The other main roster issue is that there's a bit of lop-sidedness as far as face/ heel dynamics go all over the card. The Main Event and Upper Midcard favor the heels, whereas the Midcard and Lower Midcard are heavily babyface skewed, and most of my Midcarders stink at playing heels, so I can't turn them.</p><p> </p><p>

I'm keeping my eye out for talented releases from the "Big Two" companies that have women wrestlers. Emphasis on "talented"; previous playthroughs have taught me that if I'm not careful, I'm only paying for moderately more overness. For instance, Killer Kass was released from USPW, but I'm in no hurry to sign her; QAW or one of the Japanese feds can pick her up for now, and she can gain experience their (and maybe cause QAW to cut some of their talent, who I will then give work too).</p><p> </p><p>

Finally, I hired the four cheapest rookies who weren't negative influences and signed them so I had a quick stable of jobbers to get everyone else over. And in the meantime, they can slowly get better. One of them already has become the protege of Raven Nightfall. Who, again, has 87 days left on her contract and will retire in less than 3 months, so there's not a lot our rookie will be taught in that time. Raven's good, but I'm NOT paying her prices to be a manager. There's a lot she's good at, but there are better entertainers and mic workers on the roster.</p>

<p>I'm about to finally book the InVasion which I've always meant to but never actually done. Using Genadi's mod so I don't have the big hitters such as Goldberg, Sting and Flair available to me, as is true to life</p><p> </p><p>

I wasn't sure how to book it at first and was making it up as I went, week to week (which again seems pretty true to real life WWE), but it's finally clicked. After Shane and Kurt have their hellacious match at King Of The Ring I will write Shane out and have Stephanie McMahon take over as a trustee in his stead. It never really sat right that good guy Shane should lead a heel Invasion and you can't have the WWF as the heels because they need to win in the end. Stephanie though? She can mould WCW in her own image in Shane's absence, betraying his good will. </p><p> </p><p>

This will also facilitate the big swerve at the Invasion PPV. I intend to book WCW's homegrown stars a lot better than in real life but star power for the Alliance is still thin on the ground, but it won't be Austin or Angle making the jump - it'll be Triple H who betrays the WWF to rule over the Alliance and seize power with his wife by his side. That'll teach Vince to prioritise Austin over his own son in law</p><p> </p><p>

Eventually this will allow me to logically create the brand split - babyface Shane will return and try to wrest control of WCW back from HHH and Steph, eventually getting battered by Hunter and (taking another cue from reality) selling his WCW stock to the consortium headed up by Ric Flair.</p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Hair vs Hair Match!</span></strong></p><p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">

Brutus Beefcake vs Austin Idol</span></strong></p><p>

Tonight, Beefcake earns the nickname that will forever leave him memorable in wrestling history. Beefcake puts heated rival Idol out cold with the Sleeper Cold, then proceeds to clip off those beautiful blonde locks! Idol is saved by partner Dutch Mantell before Beefcake finishes the job. That doesn’t stop Beefcake from dancing and strutting with a handful of blonde hair!</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Jimmy “Superfly” Snuka vs King Kong Bundy</span></strong></p><p>

Snuka tries to use a combination of speed, athleticism, and experience to take down the massive Bundy. It works for awhile, but eventually the behemoth gets in his shots and slows Snuka down. Bundy eventually manages to squash Snuka with the Big Splash and get the 3 Count.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Six Man Tag Team Action!</span></strong></p><p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">

Dynamite Kid, Curt Hennig, & Blue Blazer vs Dino Bravo, Masked Superstar, & Haku</span></strong></p><p>

Issues rose after Bravo & Superstar lost to their rivals Dynamite & Hennig, and they only continued for the tandem during the match. Eventually, it gets so bad that Bravo walks out on the match! Not too long after, Bobby Heenan instructs his client Haku to take a walk, too, leaving Superstar all alone! Superstar is put out of his misery when Blazer heads to the top rope and wipes him out with a Flying Cross Body! </p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">2 Out Of 3 Falls Match!</span></strong></p><p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">

Jake “The Snake” Roberts vs Harley Race</span></strong></p><p>

A feud that began all the way back at Wrestlemania 3 finally comes to a close at the first ever Summerslam. Race takes the first fall after a Piledriver on Roberts. Race misses with a headbutt from the second rope, allowing Roberts to hit the DDT to tie things up. Roberts eventually tries for the DDT again, but Bobby Heenan stops him by grabbing Snake by the leg from ringside! It’s enough of a distraction for Race to take advantage of, and he connects with a high knee to Roberts’s previously injured back! Race hits a Bridging Fisherman’s Suplex and gets the 3! Race wins the finale in this rivalry!</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Strap Match!</span></strong></p><p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">

“Hacksaw” Jim Duggan vs Sgt. Slaughter</span></strong></p><p>

A flat-out slugfest between two infamous brawlers, it looks like Duggan is in prime control late in his match. He starts to tag the turnbuckles, not realizing Slaughter is following him and doing the same. Looking to put Slaughter down for good, Duggan hits Sarge with a big lariat, but mistakenly knocks him right into the final turnbuckle! Slaughter wins!...though he barely knows he has done so!</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">WWF World Tag Team Championship!</span></strong></p><p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">

The Hart Foundation ( C ) vs The Road Warriors</span></strong></p><p>

After months of anticipation, we finally get to see these two great teams go at it. After a back and forth contest, we’re about to see history. Road Warrior Animal has Bret Hart up in the air as Road Warrior Hawk heads to the top rope. Here comes the Doomsday Device! Jimmy Hart is on the apron arguing with the referee, and…wait a minute! Someone just came out of the crowd and chopblocked Animal from behind! Animal falls to the mat, and Bret comes crashing down on top of him! Jim Neidhart shoves Hawk off the top rope as Bret rolls Animal up tightly! 1,2,3! What just happened?!</p><p> </p><p>

As the Harts quickly escape ringside, we get a close up look at this mystery man who cost the Road Warriors the Tag Titles. Oh my…it’s none other than Bret Hart’s little brother Owen! It looks like Bret found some backup for tonight! The Hart Foundation just grew plus one!</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">Kevin Von Erich vs “Mr. Wonderful” Paul Orndoff</span></strong></p><p>

A classic tale of young lion challenging the prestigious veteran, Von Erich gives Orndoff his best shots and nearly shocks the world. But one bad mistake, and Orndoff is there, ready to take advantage. Orndoff hits his trademark Piledriver, thus getting the win over Von Erich.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">“Rowdy” Roddy Piper vs Andre The Giant</span></strong></p><p>

Piper is not the type of man to back away from any challenge, not even when he’s facing the largest wrestler in the world. It’s a tall task, still, and it eventually turns grave when the battle ends up at ringside. Andre bodyslams Piper on the floor, then crushes him with a five hundred pound elbow drop! Piper tries to recover, but is unable to beat the referee’s ten count! The Giant gets the big win via Count Out!</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">WWF Intercontinental Championship!</span></strong></p><p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">

Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat ( C ) vs “Cowboy” Bob Orton</span></strong></p><p>

This is a rematch, the previous encounter won by Steamboat via DQ after interference by Ted DiBiase. DiBiase gets involved again for his fellow member of the Million Dollar Corporation, and nearly costs Steamboat the IC Title. Wait a minute! It’s Don Muraco, Bob Orton’s former partner! He’s been out with an injury after being betrayed by Orton, a contract hit by the Million Dollar Man! Orton is stunned to see his former partner, as Muraco chases DiBiase from ringside. This distraction allows Steamboat to climb to the top rope, and the Dragon flies! Orton gets his right on top of his head with the Flying Chop, and is out cold for the 3 Count! The Dragon retains the IC Title!</p><p> </p><p>

<em>Originally, it was going to be Steamboat vs Adonis for the IC Title. Sadly, Adonis was sent to rehab after his second failed drug test. Muraco was suspended for starting a backstage fight, thus two feuds were combined into one.</em></p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">The Fabulous Freebirds vs The Brainbusters</span></strong></p><p>

Anderson & Blanchard tried to take out Terry Gordy, but Bam Bam is back in time for Summerslam! An exciting, back and forth contest, Gordy gets the hot tag late as all hell breaks loose. Michael P.S. Hayes eventually gets the tag back in and hits the Running Bulldog on Blanchard for the 3 Count! Freebirds get the win, but the heated words post-match tell me that this feud is far from over!</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">WWF World Heavyweight Championship</span></strong></p><p><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">

“The Immortal” Hulk Hogan ( C ) vs “Macho King” Randy Savage</span></strong></p><p>

An epic clash of two legendary wrestlers, earning a 96 rating! Savage won the 1987 King of the Ring, thus earning himself a title shot at the first ever Summerslam. Hogan makes his classic rally late, putting the Macho King on his heels. A barrage of fists, and here comes the big boot! The crowd is on their feet as Hogan calls for the Leg Drop! </p><p> </p><p>

Wait a minute! Who is that? Some Masked Man, dressed in all black is on the apron, arguing with the referee! The Masked Man has Hogan’s attention, and Hulk grabs hold and decks him! The referee tries to get the Masked Man off the apron, as Macho King clobbers Hogan with the Royal Sceptor! Hogan is down and hurt! Savage heads to the top rope! The Flying Elbow, Boom! 1,2,3! Oh My God, Macho King has ended Hogan’s 3 ½ Year Title Reign! Macho King has stolen the WWF Championship!</p><p> </p><p>

<em>What’s up next for my Golden Age Mod?</em></p><p> </p><p>

Aside setting up for the first ever Survivor Series, the month of September will filled up with the Jack Tunney Sr. Tag Team Memorial Tournament. The winner will receive a WWF World Tag Team Title Match! </p><p> </p><p>

Speaking of tag teams, a new addition will be coming soon, as bitter enemies become best friends. Star & Stripes is born, as Jim Duggan & Sgt. Slaughter carry old glory on their way to the ring!</p><p> </p><p>

New additions to the roster include Rick Rude, fresh off a rehab stint. Also, the newly signed…Master of the Lariat…Stan Hansen!</p><p> </p><p>

As for who was that masked man? Well…we might just have to wait for Survivor Series…</p><p>
