What can I do about bad announcers? Sosa Morri seems to ruin half my segments by just being that bad at colour commentary, but switching out announcers completely tanks your grade because of the team's lack of experience together.

Use a 3 person booth to keep the experience but also get slightly better stats, until the new guy is good enough experience wise

Is it possible to add a new picture to an already started/saved game?

You can do that? Nice.

 

Is it possible to add a new picture to an already started/saved game?

 

Yes. You should be able to just put it in the relevant folder, but if that doesn't work once it's in the database you can import it to your game.

If you have more than 5 workers on time decline is there an easy way to see the full list?

Can a wrestler have more than one mentor? Possibly through positive meddling?

[de knegt]

<p>I'm running as CWT and I have a TV Show, but because of it i'm hemmoraging cash every month. But I don't want to go back to a 1 show setup either.</p><p> </p><p>

Anyways, my events aren't being aired because i'm not popular enough to get a Pay Per View carrier. But I realized that I can also air my events through the same broadcaster as my TV Show.</p><p> </p><p>

It's a commercial channel, so there's profits involved, but not major ones. They also don't want to give me a Prime Time/Late Evening/Late Night timeslot for my TV Show OR my events.</p><p> </p><p>

But is it advisable to put events on a commercial channel? Would that give me lower live attendances (since events draw nearly 2000 more, which is a significant profit). Would the profits from an event being shown on a commercial channel outweigh any possible disadvantages?</p><p> </p><p>

Also, would it be better to go early evening for it?</p><p> </p><p>

Finally, I would really like to retain the spirit of the company, but would it be better to run weekly events rather than a weekly tv show + event? I assume not, due to diminishing returns on events, but maybe someone with more experience can help.</p>

Just out of curiosity, do you ever get new Owner Goals after the ones at the start of the game?

[MJ13]

<p>Does anyone have a group of backroom staff that you use on all your saves or any promotion that you go to?</p><p> </p><p>

Looking for recommendations really. I look at them as "right hand men" who are dependable to fill different roles... similar to Football Manager staff.</p><p> </p><p>

Road Agents, Refs, Authority Figures/Announcers.</p><p> </p><p>

Who's everyone depend on for these sorts of roles?</p>

[01gognaa]

<p>Any advice on taking down a rival promotion that runs in the same country (but different region). We are both Regional size. I've hired all of the rival promotion's workers, and use them on my show - since we run on the same night, the other promotion is forced to cancel its show. It's prestige and momentum ratings are decreasing, but it still has $2mil+ in the bank, so at this rate, its going to take ages to run them out of business (if at all). Any tips?</p><p> </p><p>

Thanks in advance.</p>

WWE waited until the right moment, with legitimate stars on the roster, to do this PPV, and as is the case any time history is made, it needs to be protected and made to feel special. Look at WWE. Ronda Rousey, Charlotte Flair, Sasha Banks, Alexa Bliss, Becky Lynch, Asuka, Bayley... There are stars everywhere! Why cheapen the feel of the event by wasting the platform on people like Miz, Bryan, Cena, etc.?</p>

Sign new ladies on short-term PPA deals with a limited number of appearances and put them in the ring with your current female roster.</p>
