LloydCross Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 So, when the NWO had their promos, where you had so many wrestlers out there, and most just sat there doing nothing. They should all be rated on something? And The question was regarding jobbers, the only ting you really care about a jobber being rated on is selling, as they need to sell the beating. Their overness doesn't matter as they are nameless and just their to be destroyed. Or if you just have them tossed from the ring (which to me kind of defeats a monster destroying angle) then they don't get rated because no one cares. As the monster moves on to bigger fish, then you can look at maybe rating a wrestler on overness instead, as the fans will actually care about who is getting beat up. To use a real life example. When Braun Strowman was killing local talent, did you care about who that talent was? Did anything besides how devastating they made Strowman look, ever cross your mind? Probably not. Now Braun killing Zayn? That is someone you know, someone you are invested in and so his overness may start to be included in ratings. I really think selling is always going to be the right answer here. Overness will still have an impact anyway unless you're running heavy performance over pop. And if that's the case, what are you even doing having jobber squashes. As for the segment rating, if the monster is over enough that the jobbers bring down the segment far enough to stop him from gaining popularity, then those aren't the right segments to be putting him in. It was beneficial to see Brawn crush Ellsworth when we still didn't really know him too well. If he did that tomorrow, it wouldn't boost him at all.

If someone were to choose to do that without involving Braun with anyone else, they can indeed get very high results but in a way that doesn't reflect reality at all.</p><p> </p><p> That said, when you involve him in menace rated segments with other people the game actually does a very good job. When he was initially destroying nobodies, he could do so with great effect in segments that would average between his menace (let's call it 80) and their selling/overness (let's give that a value of 40 for the sake of this), grading towards a 60 overall. This well get Braun over to a certain point but he will of course eventually stall out without a chance of opponent.</p><p> </p><p> When he moves up to better competition, the overness should go up but if he's still doing the same menace vs selling type of angles those ratings are going to go up until he hits a plateau with that opponent again. Of course, with all his booking success he's going to be making greater gains than usual and generally getting over very strongly due to that feeding back into the ratings of any of his segments. But of course, he'll eventually plateau again....</p><p> </p><p> So you have to move him up to bigger and bigger stars to keep getting strong enough ratings to get to the top. Angle types may vary depending on your stars. Selling may not be the best when overness is getting up there for your top stars so just as in real life, the formula of the angles changes and that may lead to Braun not being booked quite as strongly but it should still get strong grades.</p><p> </p><p> Utimately it's about using the strengths of your roster and appreciating that Braun's initial squashes were not delivering 80+ rated segments. I remember a lot of people going "oh look, another muscular guy squashing people... thanks Vince" to that initial push. As he got over we warmed up to it and he got over to the point that a lot of people wanted him as champion. That shows the progression of his own overness, the segments ratings he was delivering and all the fun stuff he was regularly doing. <img alt=":)" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gungner Posted June 30, 2019 Share Posted June 30, 2019 When dealing with Talent Trades, how many (in your experience) will become TOO many for a promotion to loan to you in a short space of time (without getting the message that you've loaned too many of their workers? I'm asking because I need 5 wrestlers from a promotion whom I have a working agreement with. The event is a 2-day event, but I'm worried that they'd feel like five loans are too many. Any experiences? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
