sportsfanmas Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 <p>With only 1 show a month, it's hard to develop storylines for my 4C dynasty.

D16NJD16 Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Can a company have more than one "Season Finales" without it being considered cheating? I see there is no limit in the editor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sportsfanmas Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 <p>Now I have another question, regarding my WWF dynasty, when it comes to titles.</p><p> </p><p> I have a multitude of titles that I'm using. In my brand split, I have a primary and a secondary singles title for each brand. That won't be the issue.</p><p> </p><p> The issue I'm afraid I'm going to run into is with the other 3 titles, which will not be brand exclusive and will be able to be defended on any show. Is that going to create a problem if I have my Tag Team champions as members of Brand A, but defending against a team from Brand B? Just as an example. I'm just wondering how it would work in TEW.
