TEW2020 Product Suggestion Thread

[Big Roguey]

Two of those suggested names are.

 

yeah.

In the future can there be products that reward specific Stats outside of Hardcore

Like Strong Puroresu prioritizes Wrestlers Brawling and Technical Skills before the others in all match types

Royal Puroresu prioritizes Puroresu and Power Skills

Lucha libre prioritizes Technical And Flashiness or Aerial and Flashiness (perhaps depending on style)

Pro Wrestling Shakespeare - Like "Absurdsit Entertainment" but more extreme. Fans expect 0% matches and 100% angles for both events and TV.

Excuse me but... that how would that work out? This doesn't defeat the purpose of wrestling?

Urban Strong Style: Take Strong Style and throw in gritty and edgy entertainment. Think Strong Style with elements of ruthless aggression with an urban flare. 

Wild West Strong Style: Strong Style with a Texas twist. Larger than life characters and brawlers galore. 

British Strong Style: Combining technical wizardry with Strong Style roots

Seattle Strong Style: A grungy and attitude driven take on strong style. 

Mostly trying to create products for my custom universe where the packaged products don't cover what I'm looking for.

Half N' Half - For indecisive fans who don't know if they'd rather watch one product or another!

50/50 matches to angles

50/50 in-ring quality/popularity split

Fans are accepting of any match type

One match aimed as comedy

One match aimed as deathmatch

Any gimmick can get over, even comedy gimmicks

Gimmicks are not necessary but will have an impact if used

 

(Also, I'd like to request that Wrestling Nerd Nirvana be changed, since I'd argue it's the closest to AEW's product and yet deathmatches are penalized and top stars can't use comedy gimmicks (see Orange Cassidy and everything Jon Moxley's ever done). If you disagree, by all means please let me know which product is better suited for them, but if it is WNN, I think those tweaks would probably be necessary, at least for the modern version of it.)

After Wrestlemania XL I think the current era of WWE need a own product in TEW2020.
New Champion Cody Rhodes likes the name, “The Renaissance Era” for it.

I quickly checked Jan - Apr 2024 WWE RAW, Smackdown and Premium Live Events total running times and match times.
My results both: RAW and Smackdown was approx. 35% matches and average match was 10 minutes.
Premium Live Events was about 50% matches and average match was 25 minutes.

The already in-game "Lighthearted Entertainment" would nail it, but it ask for Comedy matches.
Even there is R-Truth, I would not call the current era of WWE comedy.

So, I suggest the basic Lighthearted Entertainment but three (3) changes :

1.) instead Matches less than 10 minutes will not be able to achieve world class scores ->
Matches less than 15 minutes will not be able to achieve world class scores.

2.) Longer matches will not do well in this environment -> remove

3.) Each show will need at least one match aimed as Comedy ->
Each show will need at least one match aimed as Story Telling
