Low Match Rating

[sabataged]

So I have been noticing lately that I am getting pretty low match ratings in any match that doesn't have a storyline attached to the match. When I check the dirt sheet it always says I get docked for "not having a hot storyline" associated with the match. I do not remember seeing this at all in the first 6 months or so of my game with TCW. Now that I am about 18 months in there is a huge difference in matches. I just had a match with between A* over Champagne Lover and a debuting Angry Gilmore who is B+. I would except this match to get atleast a B- or B based purely off of their attributes. Beofre the match I did a Modern TV opening between the two and the angle received an A*.

 

The match pulled down only a C. Is there something that says the higher popular your company gets the more it requires hot storylines for matches?

In my (very limited) experience, the note tends to come up for me if I run Main Event matches without a storyline. I haven't gotten them anywhere else on the card thus far.

I am reaching here but I am wondering if this is it. When I first started the game I only had 2 in the 90's , like 4 in the 80's etc etc. Now even my enhancement talent is 75 pop in US</p>
