<p>I think it's because of the charisma and mic work, I believe it makes up some of the parameters for Franchise Players. It's weird because on one hand I am 100% sure about Brock being the biggest name in wrestling (Cena and The Rock don't really count imo anymore, but that's up for debate for the former), but I am a huge Bray mark lol.</p><p>

If we're already at it, can we see Brock and Bray's stats?</p>

I'll amend Wyatt's stamina, I completely agree it should not be excellent. I believe being great at brawling, basics and psychology is fair tho.

 

I'll post some worker stat comparisons when I get home so we have a basis for comparison.

 

This is good, I'm glad we can flesh out any issues before conversion to Tew 2020.

 

I could also do if some testers once iv added AJPW.

 

PM me if any of you have an interest.

 

It's worth another mention that I'm using rounded stats, this is how they translate in game, I like the verbal description as its easier to say "X wrestler is great at Y stat" then "X wrestler is a B in Y stat"

 

Excellent - 90 - A

Great - 80 - B

Good - 70 - C+

Decent - 55 - C-

Not Awful - 45 - D

Awful - 30 - E+

in my opinion he's MUCH better than the Jackson's, who rely more on spot-fest stuff than any actual in-ring storytelling.

 

I'd put him in the mid to upper 80s at least for those two stats tbh, but to each their own. It won't ruin the mod for me, so if I'm in the minority on this then just leave it be!

 

Really liking the look of everything else though, and am looking forward to the release!

Some of the Young Bucks matches in NJPW had excellent storytelling (mostly their matches against Roppongi 3k), the way they sold injuries etc and how they played major roles in the way the match played out was some of the best storytelling i've seen in the ring.

Id argue that Jericho should have at least a B+ in psychology he might not have the physical skills that he used to but his ability to construct a match is still very much there.

 

I can't disagree with that, it's obvious he can't go like he used to but he's still a master of the sport.

 

An update of progress, I'm off work for school half term so spent the day yesterday adding Warrior Wrestling. Today I'm adding Cmll into the mod as well as doing an NWA season 2 marathon and getting that updated.

Any reason it is titled "Killing The Business"?

 

In reference to Jim Cornette and his comment about these modern wrestlers killing the wrestling business with all the flippy shit and unrealistic booking.

 

As Dave Meltzer said, some call it killing the business some call it amazing talent.

 

It will be up to the player to decide who they agree with and what style they book :)
