Austin’s angles and match still ranked incredibly well and our attendances and buy rates were the same as the week before (maybe even slightly higher).

New to the game. In the 1997 After Montreal mod, what do you guys think are the chances that I can make New Jack or Billy Gunn "the guy" in the WWF?

I dunno about New Jack, but everytime I play that Mod (or the June 98 one) the New Age Outlaws both end up as Main Event pretty quickly, as I usually push DX pretty hard. I've never pushed Billy to the top though, but I'm sure it can be done.

 

Someone who always ends up massively over for me in those Mods in Ken Shamrock. Without even consciously pushing him he always rockets to Main Event status and I'm certain with just the most minor of pushes he could absolutely be THAT guy.

NB: There is an Official "Booking Committee" Thread a few posts down for questions like this; this thread is for actual technical questions about the game.

What's a better announcing duo for me: Jason Azaria (78 announcing) having great chemistry with Kyle Rhodes (72 color) or Peter Michaels (90) having neutral chemistry with Rhodes? I don't actually know the chemistry between Michaels and Rhodes.

I know that a worker will not be available for me to book, if he prioritises another promotion higher, and we have shows on the same day.... But why does that not apply to the AI? That's stupid! I'm playing as NJPW, and is #1 in terms of influence. I have a show on the same day as PWG, we share Cody Rhodes (amongst others). On the particular day, a saturday, I do not use Rhodes on the card, but the next day, sunday, the news tells me that he has appeared for PWG. That's just dumb. Then I should be able to use guys in my Impact save, that AAA fx do not use that particular day.

sorry this might have been asked before, but there's so many posts here I thought I'd ask again just in case anyone else is wondering. When a wrestler comes back from a touring with their band (in my case Steve Austin of all people formed a band!), how long can I expect him to stick around? Is there some sort of restriction on how often he can tour? Or within a certain amount of time? I don't want to put the WWF title on him for him to again change my booking plans if he goes off to tour so soon after getting back, if that makes sense.
