What do the fans say when they moan about you?

[dude-1981]

Yes, you're right, I did rush the Tommy Cornell vs Jack Bruce storyline but I wanted to have them face each other at my second biggest event and other feuds had to wrap up first. Lot of moving parts here guys, give me a break.

 

Yes, I know you don't want to see another 15 minute Champagne Lover match and he can't go anymore but he has another 2 years on his deal and he is still the most known wrestler in the world.

 

What do you imagine the word about you on the forums is?

[soxfan93]

The same as Vince: Too much talent, not enough creative.

[Bonafide_Bluffa]

"why does every storyline just boil down to post-match attacks"

[DevilofNG]

Every match does not have to be 15 or 20 minutes DevilofNG!

You hire horrible, cheap wrestlers. Your matches are horrible. Your angles boil down to how tight Clare South's dress is. Your gimmicks are laughable cliches. How are more people here than last month?

My current RTG is very similar to Biglows ones. Q. </p><p> </p><p>

- Seriously why do you have such bad wrestlers in your company?</p><p>

- Why does he book himself to win, he is really pushing himself as a figure head.</p><p>

- Wels Farmer is horrible</p><p>

- There is no creative or direction, and it's just three guys trading the title back and forth. </p><p>

- What's with the solid 7 minute segment where he just shows his abs and how hot he is. (Is he Finn Balor?)</p><p>

- How did I end up as 1 of the 30 people to walk in here? </p><p> </p><p>

My current (On hiatus diary)</p><p> </p><p>

- Man o' War isn't good enough in the ring to carry the company. </p><p>

- So much talent wasted while the jobbers are fighting over the second title. </p><p>

<p>In my BHOTWG game... </p><p> </p><p>

We love BHOTWG, how are they going to top that?</p><p> </p><p>

When will they ever push young talent over this generation who has on top for so long?</p><p> </p><p>

Yay, they signed another international star!</p><p> </p><p>

When will they ever push young talent over this generation who has on top for so long?</p><p> </p><p>

Why THAT young talent?</p><p> </p><p>

Wait, when did Tatsuya Toshitala get so good? And why is the rest of his stable getting pushed ahead of him?</p><p> </p><p>

How does Atom Smasher have a job here?</p><p> </p><p>

Does that say more than 400 people employed across the Burning Hammer umbrella of companies now?</p><p> </p><p>

-----------</p><p> </p><p>

So yeah... I hire a lot of people, and if you are under 30 it's not yet your time to shine. In many ways it feels like I'm doing what WWE does... signing lots of talent from around the world and struggling to find places for them all. Even my child companies are getting to big they'd be around National size now. I think I broke TEW16 with that save....</p><p> </p><p>

And the one young talent is a regen of Strong Style Yoemon who I had slim down to Lightweight early on. Is stupidly talented, and just 15 months after his debut I had him beat Elemental III for the Junior belt. He's a potential future ace of the company and as a puro style guy he's very different from most in the division. He even has 80 power at Junior! I imagine him overwhelming people with strikes and his increasiingly versatile skillset.... along with 90ish in the performance row, 80+ across physical and 80 star quality (for now) as a skinny lightweight. Kid has it all, but I have so many talents in the Junior division that's it's weird I push him ahead of them. Poor Extraordinario Jr, he's maybe ranked about 15 in the division but is world class. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

It's a toss-up between "stop trying to make fetch happen with lucha libre death match promotions in the US - they barely work in Mexico" and "look, you have to choose between running a hardcore promotion or a comedy promotion. You can't do both."

[Vladamire Dracos]

<p>From my current SMW game:</p><p> </p><p>

"ANOTHER big guy with a manager is doing squash matches?"</p><p> </p><p>

(Killer Kyle w/jim Cornette, "Lord Humongous" aka Big Titan under a hockeymask w/Jim Cornette, Rasta The Voodooman w/Col. Red, Nightstalker w/Kevin Sullivan, etc.)</p><p> </p><p>

"Why are there so many tag team matches on this show?"</p><p> </p><p>

(I like tag team wrestling and perhaps put a few too many of these types of matches on my events)</p><p> </p><p>

"Do titles EVER change hands in this promotion?"</p><p> </p><p>

(My main title rarely changes hands, maybe 2-3 times a year in a promotion running weekly, tag teams a little more often 3-4 times, and a secondary title that changes much more frequently)</p><p> </p><p>

"A mop is more likely to win a match than John Rambo!"</p><p> </p><p>

(I brought in John Rambo, a wrestler whose biggest run was in PNW and biggest claim to fame is looking a bit like Stallone, as a guy to put my younger talent over. He was pretty good at it, so I've kept him around, but his win/lose record has become heavily skewed).</p><p> </p><p>

"Uh oh, here comes BooBoo Brazil Jr., what did this guy do to piss off the promoter?" </p><p> </p><p>

(Bobo Brazil Jr., aka Calypso Jim, I brought in like John Rambo to put people over, but he had a run where he injured three people in as many events, New Jack so badly he had to retire as a wrestler, so I nicknamed him "BooBoo Brazil Jr." and haven't used him much since).</p>

>jackgoesover.jpg</p><p>

>tfw Dan DaLay beats Jack for the title next month</p><p> </p><p>

What they don't know is that I put the belt on DaLay to drop it to Christian Price for his first reign, then I intend on having him and Antonio Del Veccio feud for it into the WrestleFestival. This is also Dan's last reign and I intend on pushing the likes of Greg Gauge and Intrepid Ian Identity, so I think they're gonna like me by the end of the year. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p>

NDW please stop having every title change at your Mania and Summerslam equivalents and stop trying to do one night tournament. Your workers can do two matches at best.

<p>*when I took over a previously AI-run World Class in a 1987 save*</p><p> </p><p>

"Dave Meltzer was right about Fritz exploiting his family for monetary gain! I thought turning Kevin Von Erich heel would be great, but then he goes too far and runs down his own family for their drug abuse and David's untimely death!"</p><p> </p><p>

<em>Somehow, I managed to increase World Class' popularity with each show during this angle.</em></p><p> </p><p>

*while watching Saturday Night's Main Event*</p><p> </p><p>

"Tom Zenk vs. Mr. Perfect was good but wasn't given enough time."</p><p> </p><p>

"How come all but two matches ended in either DQs or count outs?!"</p><p> </p><p>

"Kamala acting scared climbing the cage? Vince has completely ruined him!"</p><p> </p><p>

*after signing Owen Hart in 1987*</p><p> </p><p>

"Of course Vince would ruin a great talent like Owen! Puts him under a mask, gives him a stupid cartoon gimmick, and those vignettes are just way too hokey. Owen's career will never get back on track after this!"</p><p> </p><p>

*running a 1991 save and giving Hogan fresh opponents after Sgt. Slaughter and waiting for Ric Flair to arrive, and after signing Kevin Sullivan*</p><p> </p><p>

"The Barbarian?! Really, the FREAKIN' BARBARIAN is going to challenge Hogan?! Why not turn Piper heel?! Why is Ted DiBiase stuck in a midcard feud with Virgil?! Why not give Undertaker a run?! Why not turn Jake "The Snake" Roberts heel?! Why not do a face -vs- face match with Bret Hart and get him over in a big way before he eventually wins the IC Title?! And I loved Kevin Sullivan when he was in the NWA, but Vince took his dark gimmick and went overboard with it, turning it into a complete cartoon!"</p>

[Makhai]

<p>AEW save complete:</p><p> </p><p>

Joey Ryan ... just why?(because Joey Ryan obviously)</p><p> </p><p>

Hungman Page.... just why?(because he's garbage and I'm funny laugh damn it!)</p><p> </p><p>

Why do you keep hiring girls to pin Kylie Rae? (Because she's garbage stop falling for her Legendary gimmick!)</p><p> </p><p>

Why are you booking CM Punk like 97 Kevin Sullivan?(Because... reasons)</p><p> </p><p>

You're entire main event and upper mid is over 38. Stop burying the young guys. ( 40 is the new 30. Lean to deal) </p><p> </p><p>

You have Ashley Flair, Sasha Banks, Madison Eagles and a slew of cutie joshis who can go... and AJ gets all the screen time. Trash company, sexist confirmed. (tell these girls to cut a promo and you'll see the master plan)</p><p> </p><p>

Dustin Rhodes and Matt Morgan.... TNA! TNA! TNA! (DONT MAKE ME BRING BACK BLACK REIGN!)</p><p> </p><p>

You've had Kenny Omega under contract for 9 months and he's wrestled 7 times... What a Part-timer. (HE'S A SPECIAL UNICORN PAY ME!)</p><p> </p><p>

KENTA TV champion? Have you seen him wrestle since 2010? (KENTA needs no defense you all just suck)</p><p> </p><p>

Ace Romero.... are you even trying? (He's the closest thing I got to a young monster heel, IM LOOKING OK!)</p><p> </p><p>

I think you have the Bullet Club confused with Aces & Eights? The Bullet Club had people we liked in it. Sign Brooke Hogan and get this thing over with already. (I'll do it, don't tempt me!)</p><p> </p><p>

What is Jim Cornette even doing exactly? (Waiting for The Revival... I mean, sorting his death threats)</p><p> </p><p>

Why are you jobbing out Penta and Fenix, they're the best tag team you have...(Because I'm below Impact on their favored promotions and that offends me.)</p>
