<p>Does announcing experience really affect match rating that much?</p><p> </p><p>

I swear I had workers like Bret, Benoit, Eddie etc. pulling mid 90s matches until I replaced McMahon with Heenan on commentary and ever since my ratings have been pulled down.</p>

<p>Hi guys sorry if these have been answered previously, either in this thread or elsewhere</p><p> </p><p>

1) Does relationship effect whether or not someone is willing to do a job? For example, Shawn Michaels is never gonna enjoy taking the L but shouldn't he be more willing to lay down for one of his friends in the Kliq than someone else of comparable popularity? Always wondered this about TEW</p><p> </p><p>

2) Is there a "definitive" list of what people's finishers are? Obviously you can use your imagination and the editor can offer some clues but I always wondered if there was a consensus or a list anywhere of who does what as a finisher. What exactly <em>is</em> The Big Money Move?</p><p> </p><p>

3) How did Shawn Gonzalez die?</p>

If it says "Probably, his last turn wasn't long ago", is it a certainty that a turn will go wrong, or can it still be succesfull?

<p>So hopefully someone can help me:</p><p> </p><p>

Im running a performance based company with 100% match ratio for my first game. I did the same in TEW13 without any problems.</p><p> </p><p>

My problem in TEW16 though is that while my company is steady growing in popularity my workers stagnated a year ago at exactly 29 popularity ( i got 1 ME with higher popularity but he had it before i signed him)</p><p> </p><p>

I got ME , Upper Midcarder Midcarder even Lower Midcarder all sitting at 29 popularity and i just can't get them more over</p>

Can i safely use angles (even though its kinda cheap to spam those) in a company that has a 100% match ratio ?

 

Could i use them in pre or post-show and get the same result?

 

Well pre-show and post-show would only help them in the specific region of the shows and with lessened impact.

 

I am running a Puro fed that is 100& and I use 1-2 angles per show. If your show is 100% then you can use up to 10% about of the show on angles. So that's 10 minutes of angles per 100 minutes of show time (I only do easy math).

 

It's not so cheap honestly as even companies like PWG or Traditional Japanese companies that are generally all matches may run the occassional angle where the next challenger confronts the champion.

 

So if you have high menace guys have them do a menacing face-off of giants post match. If you've got entertaining workers you can have them trade insults before or after a match. Not so cheap imo

Okay, thanks alot. I'll try giving my shows that little bit more instead of just matches

[The Dynamite Sid]

2 - You can donwload the demo to Wrestling Spirit 3 and check the moves there

 

hadn't thought of that. Good tip. I did manage to find some outdated fan-made wiki pages but I wasn't overly certain how accurate they would be and it wasn't extensive

 

Yes, it does.

 

thank you sir

Is it possible to have two 'A' shows? Like with a Brand spilt? And can I change an existing show from a B to an A?

[Tag01]

So I have an unscripted angle with Remo (main eventer) and roger cage (midcard). I got the note that Cage did masterful job of improvising with the crowd and a 93 grade, but also got a note that Cage underperformed. What's that about? His overness is much lower than Remo's, does it have to do with that?

Will "freelancers" eventually settle down and become long term wrestlers as they get older?

I have a question with the buy rates of PPV, the player's handbook says that running multiple ppv in short space of time reduced ppv buy rate, does anybody have more info about that ? The optimal time between two ppv? Two weeks is good or not ?

[Zeldster]

So I have just started my first long term save after a few games with ultimate money to get the jist of things.

 

I'm currently playing as NWA: UK Hammerlock (TEW2013 1998 Mod), left the alliance due to profits being shared and never making a profit each month. Now I'm stable and earning around 10k max per month with 150k in the bank.

 

Though I'm close to making the jump to regional from small sitting at 28 importance - needing 29 to progress. The wrestling industry and economy are both around the 20's and still falling.

 

This will be my first ever jump up in size and I'm just wondering if It'd be best limiting myself to small size till the economy and wrestling industry pick up? Or will it be safe to progress?
