So the sort of hanging around in the rafters Sting elements. But in the ring more of an old skool Taker being hard to knock off his feet. Not feeling pain etc. Also I’ve alqaya tried to give him story lines that don’t involve the title. So giving him a different reason to feud with someone.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

e-rock Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 I book Animal Harker as a George "The Animal" Steele type. The green hair/green tongue, same gimmick. Coincidence? <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/wink.png.686f06e511ee1fbf6bdc7d82f6831e53.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adi95 Posted December 1, 2019 Share Posted December 1, 2019 I'm sorry for unearthing this thread, but I'm just beginning to learn about C-verse and I'm curious who you think is the C-verse equivalent of current WWE female stars like Becky Lynch, Charlotte Flair, Alexa Bliss, Bayley, Ronda Rousey or Japanese stars/legends like Okada, Tanahashi, Naito, White, Inoki or Baba?

piccamo Posted December 2, 2019 Share Posted December 2, 2019 I'm sorry for unearthing this thread, but I'm just beginning to learn about C-verse and I'm curious who you think is the C-verse equivalent of current WWE female stars like Becky Lynch, Charlotte Flair, Alexa Bliss, Bayley, Ronda Rousey or Japanese stars/legends like Okada, Tanahashi, Naito, White, Inoki or Baba? Alicia Strong is similar to Charlotte Flair in that she's the daughter of a wrestling legend and is the face of a women's division. Also blonde and talented in the ring. Brooke Tyler could be like Natalia Hart. She's the daughter of Eric Tyler and is very talented in the ring. I'm not sure for the others.

fusionfreak Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Goldbergs I use Runaway Train, Dread and Peter Valentine as kind of Goldberg types in early years of the C-Verse. I don't think either of the 3 totally fit that. Probably Train fits it the best. Dread always seemed to have to much in ring talent while Valentine just looks to goofy to me and has a difficult time getting over. Any other suggestions for a Goldberg type?

Derek B Posted December 3, 2019 Share Posted December 3, 2019 Steve Frehley for sure. In lore already he debuted with a huge unbeaten streak and went on to become champion in SWF while still riding that. He's a similar size, powerful, uses the Dark Destroyer (spear) as a set up for his finish, Frehley's Comet (F5). He's the closest to Goldberg the Cornellverse has.

Much better pick than what I had. I didn't know he had an undefeated streak, I must have missed that in the bio. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fusionfreak Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 So who would be good for Triple H, The Rock, Bobby Lashley, Sean O'Haire, Test, Scott and/or Rick Steiner, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, Booker T, Stevie Ray, Randy Savage, Jake The Snake and Brutis Beefcake. Dazzling Dave Diamond is my go to for a Stone Cold Steve Austin type. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dazzling Dave Diamond is my go to for a Stone Cold Steve Austin type. The Rock - To me, Ross Henry just screams Rock. Can talk. Good looking. Not a third generation star or anything, but that's who I always picture The Rock as. Bobby Lashley - Nate DeMarcus. That's my immediate go to for Lashley. He's just young and green and getting experience, but he's an excellent prospect. Jake the Snake - Cobra... I mean.. Look at him? The thing is, there aren't really perfect equivalents to anyone in the CVerse. Sure, there are clearly people who are inspired by real wrestlers, but there aren't the situations in the CVerse that there are in real life. I have, for instance who I would compare to Sean O'Haire or the Steiners, etc... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigpapa42 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Very much agree with Historian - there aren't that many dead-on equivalents. In that they match up to the Real World worker all the way around. Skillset, render, gimmick, personality, career-arc, character... I've been doing quite a lot of this kind of thing lately, as I'm assembling a real world mod by importing Cverse and Tverse workers that resemble a given RW in terms of skillset and adapting them. Its a bit different when you just look at the skillsets and not the other elements. You can end up being surprised with how matches up similarly. And who doesn't.

Juce Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 I like to use my own companies in the CVerse and bring in free agents and stuff. Anyways the last year doing this is a lot like AEW in the real world for me. With that said who do we think in the CVerse is a good fit to represent each worker in AEW? Chris Jericho - Jack Bruce Jake Hager - Cody Rhodes - Jay Chord? Dustin Rhodes - Kenny Omega - Hangman Adam Page - Young Bucks - MJF - Christopher Daniels - Frankie Kazarian - Scorpio Sky - Lucha Bros. - Dark Order - Trent - Chuck Taylor - Orange Cassidy - Angelico - Jack Evans - Brandon Cutler - Darby Allin - Joey Janela - Private Party - Jimmy Havoc - Jon Moxley - Jurassic Express - Kip Sabian - Pac - Peter Avalon The Librarian - Shawn Spears - Sonny Kiss - Butcher - Blade - Marty Scurll - Flip Gordon - Awesome Kong - Aja Kong - Brandi Rhodes - Leva Bates - Riho - Bea Priestley - Britt Baker - Hikaru Shida - Nyla Rose - Penelope Ford - Sadie Gibbs - Kris Statlander - I am trying to come up with as many of these as I can and really struggling to fit someone in for them really.

Juce Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 I have always thought that Bulldozer Brandon Smith was Samoa Joe and Dread was Vader. That is how I envisioned them. Steve Flash was Jerry Lynn in my opinion too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adi95 Posted December 5, 2019 Share Posted December 5, 2019 Which real world promotions do you think have their counterpart in c-verse? For me: SWF = WWE TCW = Mix of WCW and TNA USPW = Reborn AWA BHOTWG = NJPW GCG = JWA PGHW = AJPW BCG = NOAH WLW = Dragon Gate OLLIE = CMLL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Historian Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 MPWF or CILL = AAA EMLL = X-LAW AAFW = CWF TWL = WCCW I think the real AAA is represented by SOTBPW, not CILL or MPWF. SCCW - Memphis/SMW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Horse Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 I'll try my best with some of these. Chris Jericho - Jack Bruce Jake Hager - Primus Allen Cody Rhodes - Greg Gauge Dustin Rhodes - Matthew Keith (totally not right but....) Kenny Omega - Frankie Perez Hangman Adam Page - Young Bucks - The Amazing Bumfoles MJF - Hollywood Brett Starr Christopher Daniels - Steve Flash Frankie Kazarian - Donnie J Scorpio Sky - Thrill Seeker Lucha Bros. - Los Monteros (sans the mask gimmicks) Dark Order - The Swarm (or now Silver Tiger and Cosmic Rider) Trent - Nelson Callum Chuck Taylor - Ash Campbell Orange Cassidy - Garry The Entertainer Angelico - Craig Phoenix Jack Evans - Remmy Skye Brandon Cutler - Regular Joe Darby Allin - Australian Devil Joey Janela - Private Party - OMG (Reynaud and Kamikaze) Jimmy Havoc - Jon Moxley - Jurassic Express - Kip Sabian - Princeton Pryce Pac - Peter Avalon The Librarian - Shawn Spears - Clark Alexander Sonny Kiss - Notorious F.R.E.A.K. Butcher - Roly Muckletruck or Cerberus Blade - Rayne Man Marty Scurll - Ash Campbell Flip Gordon - Kid Fantastic Awesome Kong - Gorgon Aja Kong - Also Gorgon Brandi Rhodes - Brittney Hollywood Leva Bates - Joanna Silver Riho - Yuma Maruya Bea Priestley - Laura Flame Britt Baker - Christy Higgins (feels like they should be good but they aren't) Hikaru Shida - Megumi Nakajima Nyla Rose - Unstoppable Tai or Killer Kass Penelope Ford - Charity Sweet Sadie Gibbs - Kris Statlander - Kinda all over the place with some of these but this is actually pretty hard.

Steve Flash was Jerry Lynn in my opinion too. I always had Brandon as Kevin Steen/Owens. Maybe it is the render but that was always how I saw him. Just wanted to add that Big Smack Scott has no equal, he is simply the best in all realities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
