Makkaveli101 Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 I currently have a large roster (51 workers) and two of my workers, Ron Simmons and Typhoon have 8 months of tendonitis to go. Due to me having a large roster I don't want to risk having match penalties for booking wrestlers working with injuries, (I will give the time to other workers) so I was wondering...should I just give them a lengthy spell of time off - until they are fully recovered? It's difficult to judge just how much this tendonitis issue effects match rating. I also don't see the point in them being around for the next 6-8 months when they won't be used. Alternatively, should I send them to development company in some kind of development role? What does everyone else do when they have a similar issues?

Mattywood Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 From what I've been researching, from what Fleisch has talked about with his own personal experiences with his injuries, those injuries most likely shouldn't even be allowing a worker to work through them. Just some food for thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Remianen Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 <p>I'm with Icecold on this one. It's really a case-by-case basis. For example, I have Gail Kim working through a Chondromalacia patella (runner's knee) that had a 9 month duration on it. I gave her six months off because my roster is so deep, I didn't really NEED her, though she's one of my best workers (and a main eventer). When she came back, I gave her a preshow match once a month and let her do commentary on main eventer vs midcarder matches the other 3 weeks as well as being an onscreen mentor for an up and comer (Seleziya Sparx, in this case).</p><p> </p><p> I don't generally like using injured workers since I vaguely recall in a past TEW, there was a danger of the injury getting worse (or leading to another injury). Or maybe I'm imagining that.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defmall Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 <p>If i have a guy injured for just a month or two, I give him some time off, but not the entire time off.</p><p> </p><p> If he's high charisma high mic skills, I'll try to use him in angles just to keep him on screen</p><p> </p><p> If it's an injury he CAN work with, I might try to hide him occasionally in a 6 man match.</p><p> </p><p> Like the other guys said, it def depends on their skill sets and their value to current storylines</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt_Black Posted June 22, 2018 Share Posted June 22, 2018 <p>Sometimes? Yes. It's just not worth it to risk them further aggravating it. If they're in a storyline, I make sure the heat's good enough that it can take being not featured, otherwise, I slot someone else in (like when they through Jason Jordan into the Shield mix when Ambrose got hurt).</p><p> </p><p> If I'm not televising the shows (like Regional and under) I might stick them in the announce booth and see how they do.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zero Posted June 25, 2018 Share Posted June 25, 2018 <p>Depends on the worker and when it comes up. Usually I have that superstar complete their story line run and give them a long six month vacation. </p><p> </p><p> Sometimes, I go against this advice. Bret Hart had some knee injury and I kept him around no matter what.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
