Matt_Black Posted September 25, 2018 Share Posted September 25, 2018 If you want Sara Marie York, you'll need to drop Risque down to Medium first. Otherwise good choices include J-Ro, Suzanne Brazzle, the A-LIST, and Tracy Brendon. If you don't mind workers with a little less pop, Tamara McFly and Jana Marie Bowen are two solid talents who don't mind Eye Candy matches.

Basically with SWF immediately it’s about pushing Bruce to get the last out of his pop. Then short term it about pushing Valiant to be the next big baby face. Then long term it’s tsking some of these youngsters and making them great. Overall I’m enjoying it thus far! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt_Black Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 <p>I started a new game, and once again tried to get a Women's Division off the ground. This time, I hired some of the ladies who are unemployed- Connie Morris, Eve Grunge, April Appleseed, Emma Bitch, and others. And let me tell you, even with Risque dropped down to Medium, Eye Candy Matches are a life saver. Normally, a match between Tamara McFly and Poison Ivy with their current pops? 30s-40s match rating. You add mud or foam to that? Suddenly they're pulling in 70s and 80s. Their match ratings are almost as good as my main events! That's wild.</p><p> </p><p> Also, I set most of them up to be managers of popular wrestlers, and Emma Bitch had Good Chemistry with The Crippler. Of course, now I'm imagining the kind of shenanigans that could arise when I finally turn him back to face and resume his previous gimmick.</p><p> </p><p> Also, Jana Marie Bowen and Jimmy Hernandez started dating. That makes me happier than it probably should.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt_Black Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 His contract just came up too, actually.
