Justin Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 So I was in the initial hiring phase of my WCW 92: Going All-in on "Rasslin" with Jerry Lawler on the book game and I noticed a mistake that I can't believe has gone unnoticed for so long. It looks like Ron and Rob Fuller have been merged into one person! If you click on Robert Fuller it gives you his brother Ron's bio, but gives you Rob's alter ego's. Add to that Ron isn't in the database. To be clear: Ron Fuller = The Tennessee Stud Rob Fuller = Col. Robert Parker I know it's an easy mistake to make, especially if you aren't familiar with the Welch/Fuller family and the history of the TN/AL territory in the 70s and 80s. However, it's game breaking if you're doing a Southern themed game and trying to recreate The Stud Stable. I fixed it by importing Ron from the 87 data, but I noticed that this mistake runs across the board in the early 90s "Storm" mods, 91-94 at the very least. I hope it's okay I made a thread instead of posting in four other ones with the same information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldSchool4life Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 My heart hurts that someone wouldn't know they're two different people.... how can someone be a wrestling fan and not watch Continental? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hive Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 I don't know about justtxyank, but I did it on purpose with my mods - just like I merged the two Ultimate Warriors into one (the one who died in the early 90's and the one they brought back later as the "real" thing). I find it much less confusing. I'm considering removing a couple of the Guerrero's as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope it's okay I made a thread instead of posting in four other ones with the same information. I'm very familiar with the Fullers and a big fan of Robert's work. I don't have data in front of me, but when you say they were merged into one, can you elaborate? Ron Fuller isn't in the data because he didn't appear on tv to my knowledge anytime in the 90s. I know he did contract work for WCW on the production side but that's it. What was combined about the two? Robert Fuller did become "The Tennessee Stud" and used it as a nickname after Ron. I think he beat Ron Fuller for the rights to the name. My memory of his bio is that it was pretty limited and only mentioned his feud with Bob Armstrong. What specifically is wrong in there?

He wasn't involved with wrestling at all. His last match was supposedly February 27 1989. Robert won the right to be called the Tennessee Stud beating his brother. If you haven't already you should listen to the Studcast Ron Fuller tells some great stories.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stennick Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 You should check out the promo after Rob wins the name. Its this press conference type thing. All in all its pretty awesome. Continental is one of my favorite territories ever. The Fullers were incredible heels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
