MJ13 Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Just a quick question about PPA contracts. If I have a guy on $1,000 per appearance, and I use him on a B show and A show which are filmed on the same night, thats $2,000 in wages right?

My experience on that MAY be dating back to 2013, but I really doubt it's changed, so fairly sure BC is correct here.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Kayfabe Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Does anyone have a good idea on what a product would look like for AEW & NXT? As well as match ratios? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Historian Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 Does anyone have a good idea on what a product would look like for AEW & NXT? As well as match ratios? I'd say that NXT is probably: Key Feature Traditional, with a Heavy on Modern and Entertainment on Medium -- though that's my personal opinion. It's probably 80/20 match angle, or somewhere in there depending on your own interpretation. AEW I'd pretty much give the same stuff too, I'd just up the Dare Devil and Hardcore aspects to Medium (or Low) as opposed to very low or none. Probably 85/15 or 90/10 on match/angle ratio. But again, someone else's interpretation might be different. You might check what they are in one of the more popular mods -- I'm not a mod maker.

Historian Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 How long should you spend building up a turn to avoid the shock penalty? 4 shows or so. I don’t remember the exact amount but if you are reading it for a month of tv you should be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RatedRKO16 Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 How do I get my workers to improve on entertainment skills? Unscripted angles don't seem to work as well in '16 vs '12. Should I script more to improve?... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Historian Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 How do I get my workers to improve on entertainment skills? Unscripted angles don't seem to work as well in '16 vs '12. Should I script more to improve?... They should improve just by being in the angles. You can always have them in an angle with someone with high entertainment skills and have them not be rated on anything, their skills will go up by being involved in the segment.

Don’t believe so, but if you type empleh into the code thing it’ll show you all the codes available. I’m on my phone so I can’t check myself.

Munit Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 Is there anyone in the cverse who's close to brock lesnar? Someone whos huge with a lot of pop and possible cross over mma style Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorian Posted November 7, 2019 Share Posted November 7, 2019 For Brock Lesnar like people there's the following. Not all of them will have MMA as well though. I just picked guys who can fill what you are looking or. Bedlam - 21CW Brute Kikuchi - PGHW Bulldozer Brandon Smith - MAW/BCG Ekuma - SWF/RIPW Haranobu Kobayashi - PGHW Jack Avatar (I call him Jack Jackson) - User Matthew Keith - BHOTWG Viktor Beskov - 21CW War Machine - 21CW Yoshinaku Taka - BCG There isn't really a good comparison to Brock. These are probably the closest you'll get to him, though at varying parts of his career. If I was betting man and you wanted the version of him at his peak abilities, probably Beskov or War Machine would be the best bets. Probably Jack Jackson though, is the Brock Lesnar comparison. There is the problem of unless you de-age him a bit (which I do), he's a bit older than when Brock got into the game. You can just tag on MMA onto him and away you go. Plus he's available everywhere, so he can suit whichever company you sign him up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I'm thinking I should set up these loans, never use the wrestler I acquire (can't really afford the $750 just to import enhancement talent), and still have my prospects benefit from extra matches. Then I can just let the time expire on the loan and set up a new one after that.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRMDan1017 Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 I just saw a road agent note for Sasha Banks saying that she connects with the young female demographics and they liked her winning. What causes this? And what effects does it have? Can I replicate this effect with anyone else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
