Playing the art of war mod set in 1998. I’m trying to clean the wwe locker room up. So abyone getting popped for hard drugs or steroids is getting suspended and sent to rehab. Have the Legion Of Doom and obviously Hawk got done for hard drugs. He’s in rehab for 8 months. In the mean time I’ve discovered Animal and Vader have excellent chemistry as a team. Any ideas for a name?

I mean, it's right in the name: The Combat Zone.

<p>Getting ready to start a Smokey Mountain Wrestling save using the 1994 Clash of the Titans mod. Even though the SMW product doesn't require storylines, I still want to use some to help with my booking so that I'm not just booking off the wall stuff all the time.</p><p> </p><p>

Problem is I dont know where to begin. I downloaded a huge storyline mod and went through it but couldn't come up with any starting storylines. Anybody have any ideas on some good ones to check out? Thanks</p>

[brianc2008]

For the CZW TV show, perhaps take a page from WWF and call it Action Zone?

I'm currently playing at 1993 WWF.

 

Bull Nakano is my top woman's wrestler but also manages Akira Hokuto and Aja Kong. I'm looking for a tag team name for Hokuto and Kong as well as a stable name for all three. Any ideas?

I've run a similar group before under the name Joshi Strong Style. Not super creative, I know, but it works. You could also go Nakano-gun, especially if it's a heel stable.

<p>I'm TNA owner on a January 2005 mod and I have Steve Austin vs. Hulk Hogan headlining my November 2006 PPV.</p><p> </p><p>

Austin is 41 years old and injury prone, while Hogan is 53, so they're unlikely to be able to put on a classic in terms of in ring quality. Austin is 97 pop, Hogan 92. </p><p> </p><p>

Which match aim would you guys recommend using? Logic would dictate 'Once in a Lifetime', but 'spectacle' also looks like a useful option. I assume 'Steel the Show' refers to in-ring work alone and so wouldn't be valid for this.</p>

Regular, longer than 16 minutes, slow build and call in ring. That usually works fine.</p>

[Guest Asaemon]

I might have done Once in a Lifetime for the first Hogan vs. Flair match in 94, but i mostly use regular for the big matches.

[AstonVilla]

<p>Thanks, both. I'll stick to regular in that case.</p><p> </p><p>

Is there a reason Once in a Lifetime would be a risk here? Like, surely an Austin vs. Hogan match is the most relevant possible situation for this match aim?</p>

[Guest Asaemon]

It's a gamble so it can work, but when i've experimented earlier i had more success with regular than once in a lifetime and epic.

<p>Its Nov 2021 and my Cult size USA based company has the opportunity to buy out PGHW. My motive to do it is to bring in all of the talented workers and gain a second area of PPV coverage. The argument against is that very few of the guys have US Overness, and my roster is already pretty bloated, up around 40 active wrestlers. </p><p> </p><p>

Aside from doing a brand split in which the Japanese workers just work Japan and keep my guys stateside, what would you suggest I do with the potential influx of talent?</p>

Have an SMW save going, starting a Funks vs. Armstrongs storyline. Have Bob, Scott, Steve, and 1 more new signee on the Armstrong side. All I have on the Funk side is Terry and Dory Jr. Looking for 2 more to join the Funk side, preferably 2 that could pass as relatives to Terry and Dory. Looking to set up a Survivor Series style match at an upcoming show. Ideas?

Also I would check their relationships and see if they have any proteges as that could be an easy plug and play.</p>

How do you all normally push Next Big Things?

 

I'm playing a new SWF game and the only NBT I have is Spencer Spade. I would like him to be a main eventer soon since USPW is probably going to poach my main event.

Get them involved in the mid-card title and raise its prestige to Main Event status and demand a World Title shot. Win or lose, it normally helps push them higher on the card.</p>
