What's Going on in Your Game?


Recommended Posts

Going to take a little break from my 2002 GWE (WCW) save to do a three-player game as AEW, NWA, and Impact starting at the beginning of August 2021 using RW chronicles.

 

Just setting stuff up now, but I think it'll be fun to see what happens with some of the latest stuff in the real world going down.

Finally started a game with the new RWC data and decided to run WWE my way rather than "realistic". The company is now run by Shane & Stephanie. NXT is run by HHH and Shawn Michaels. A part of me is considering closing the NXT UK promotion, but I'm not 100% certain that will happen yet.

 

First thing I did was kill off the brand split - I hate Brand Splits. Next up (at Summerslam) I unified the WWE and WWE Universal titles (now known as the WWE Heavyweight title, it is held by Roman Reigns who defeated Bobby Lashley & John Cena in a 3 Way).

 

The Raw Women's title was renamed to just the WWE Women's title, retiring the Smackdown title. Nikki A.S.H. is the current champion after the unification of the belts.

 

Both the Raw & Smackdown tag team titles have been retired, bringing back the original WWE World Tag Team belts (Jey & Jimmy Uso won a tournament for the belts - final held at Summerslam against Viking Raiders).

 

24/7 belt has been retired. Akira Tozawa being the last holder.

 

Sheamus is currently a dual champion, holding both the IC and US titles. I was going to unify the belts but changed my mind after Summerslam and so now both will remain as secondary belts (US will be more aimed towards the lower end of the midcard and IC the higher end).

 

I released a huge chunk of the roster I was never going to use from WWE, NXT & NXT UK (giving the Indies a ton of fresh talent to book). A lot of backroom staff have also been released in order to streamline the company.

 

I reformed the Hurt Business with MVP, Bobby Lashley, Shelton Benjamin, Cedric Alexander & Marcellus Black (dropping the Mace gimmick). This is a faction that should never have been split in real life. I have big plans for the stable in the future.

 

Donovan Dijakovic has dropped the T-Bar gimmick and is currently in a midcard feud with Damien Priest. One of these 2 will probably beat Sheamus for the United States title - although Cedric Alexander is another one I'm considering for that title.

 

Jacob Fatu signed from MLW and is currently in NXT (he is going to be a future part of Reigns/Uso faction with I've decided is now called the Roman Empire). I moved Drake Maverick, Pete Dunne and James Drake to NXT UK. Adam Cole is now on the main roster and is feuding with Edge to try and get him over.

 

Becky Lynch is back, feuding with Alexa Bliss (Sans the Lily nonsense). Rhea and Charlotte is a feud in real life I would have zero interest in, but in the game it gets ratings so... My current Women's tag team champions are Naomi & Bianca Belair (known as Glow EST). The tag team of AJ Styles and Omos is no more with AJ going off into a solo feud against Kevin Owens. Robert Roode and Dolph Ziggler have also gone solo. A new team has been set up for Akira Tozawa & Angel Garza (no name yet for the team) as well as creating the Mustafa Ali & Mansoor tag team. Those two teams are in a lower card feud but hopefully I can build them both into tag team title contenders in the future.

 

Women's division is solid, with plenty of workers to get 2 or 3 matches on a PPV (as well as a couple on both Raw and Smackdown each week).

 

So yeah, that's the start of my game.

I've hit the year 2000 in my CGC game using the excellent C'Verse'97 mod. My attempt with this game was to keep things canon, following official title lineages, hirings, and firings where the info was available. It went off the rails fairly quickly. I lost key guys prematurely to bigger companies, and then things sort of took on a life of their own. In canon, the DeColts were supposed to trade the big belt back and forth throughout 98-99, but I went in a different direction.

 

SuMRSxX.jpgcXkjMAi.jpg

 

At the top of the promotion are The Player's Club; a villainous group of pickup artists managed by Womanizer Robbie Gordon. Originally intended to be minor villains to teach 'Stunning' Steve DeColt the dark side of his own womanizing ways, they've made it to the top thanks to Gordon's charisma, and Rocky Psycho's (formerly Constantino) tendency to fly off the handle at a moment's notice. The rest of the group changes often and is of little importance ('Dirty' Frankie Flame, 'Model' Mario Heroic, 'Call Me Daddy' Flapjack Flanagan, 'Le Peacock' Athos D'Olivier) but the chemistry between Gordon and Psycho has made for an effective package, stealing wins, stealing girlfriends, and holding on to the CGC World Title for over a year.

 

A central conceit of this game is the Manager's Crown; a title for managers that can only be challenged for in Best-of-Seven stable warfare. Winner gets the Crown. Loser has their Manager's license suspended, shattering their stable. Robbie Gordon is the current wearer of the crown, having defeated Frenchie Marcel's Fighting Legion and Little Bo Psycho's Black Riders, but he now faces his biggest challenger yet; George DeColt.

 

JYe9tik.jpgyauf29s.jpgp9wTIF9.jpghQXxoG6.jpg

 

While I traditionally book the DeColts as Cena/Hogan/Superman level unbeatable icons of the company, these are younger, less experienced DeColts we're dealing with in 1999. Steve's a dumb pretty boy, Alex is a nerd trying to balance fighting and college, and Jack is a naive goody-two-shoes who has never thrown a punch in his life. They learn and grow and get a lot of TV time, but they're being booked with a lot more vulnerability. It could be argued that Ed Monton, Louis Magnifico (Figo Manico) and 64mb RAM (fka Battering Lamb) were all ahead of them as top babyfaces in 1999. Currently Steve and Jack are the tag team champions, while Alex has gone AWOL since the Player's Club brainwashed his girlfriend (Emma Chase, mirroring a 'real' relationship) and Rocky Psycho shaved his head.

 

But that's only three DeColts! Who will fill the fourth slot in George DeColt's bid for the Manager's Crown? Well, it just so happens that another blonde musclehead has arrived, claiming to be a yet another son of George DeColt. Goes by the name Damian Carvill. Suspiciously perfect timing, huh?

 

bnXsOPQ.jpgzQDCq4o.jpgvj460Ye.jpg

 

Elsewhere, a lot of future CGC legends are spinning their wheels, fumbling around trying to find the perfect gimmick to take them to the top. It's been a lot of fun to intentionally book guys wrong, until I'm ready for them to shine. Johnny Maverick is a plucky babyface. Dan DaLay is guitar wielding punk rocker "Dan DeCay". Eddie Chandler is at least taking a step towards his final form (in my canon, a Goldust-esque master of mind-games) being very uncomfortable with teaming up with his male secret admirer Casey Love (random gen). These guys are destined to become top heel group The Elite sometime in 2001-02, so still have some time to kill. In my canon (according to a small line in one of my CGC diaries that I'm taking far too seriously) another heel group needs to come before them; the Sea of Monsters. I should probably put some thought into what they are. Knowing me, sea monsters. I am nothing if not literal.

 

Outside of the ring, I'm continuing my push to get TV in more areas of Canada. We have Saskatchewan locked up, and are a couple of months away from getting Manitoba too. Conversely, NOTBPW lost TV and PPV deals in 1998, and have shrunk into a small company just running monthly events in The Maritimes. Financially successful, but far from the powerhouse opposition they're meant to be. I may need to step in to help them out.

I mean.... Lobster Man was a CGC original before he went to the SWF as Lobster Warrior. And it's not like there aren't a bunch of big men scattered around who could play all kinds of monsters for you. Like... at the end of every sea there is also.... a Land Mass. ;)

 

I also love those pictures of the DeColt boys. Never knew George wore a wig to hide his baldness though, that's something I learned today. :p

In my head-canon, Gorgeous George DeColt had a luxurious head of hair throughout his career. Is it a wig now in 2000? I'm sure he denies it.

 

Kicking myself for not automatically jumping to Lobster Warrior. He's on my shortlist already, along with a bunch of other CGC alumni I need to give runs to at some point. I should make an actual list.

Not kicing yourself for not also having Land Mass in there? For shame! <img alt=":p" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> The save sounds like a lot of fun, having the DeColt boys be more like boys sounds awesome, please keep the updates coming as you make progress, I love hearing about your games and I always look to steal stuff from them to add to the mod <img alt=":)" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

<p>Playing a 2004 mod. Main feud on Raw is Triple H and Shawn Michaels. They were due to have a match at Royal Rumble, but I wanted the finale of their feud to be at Mania, and a match at Rumble made no sense to me, so I booked Evolution to attack HBK backstage, injuring him so he wasn't cleared to compete. However, Sheriff Austin wasn't prepared to allow Evolution to get away with it, making HBK the special guest referee for Trip's title defence, and allowing him to handpick the opponent. As Evolution also screwed RVD out of the IC title, HBK nominated him to challenge at Rumble.</p><p> </p><p>

I never intended for RVD to win the world heavyweight title as I wanted HBK to take that at Mania, but a mere two days before the event, it was announced that Triple H and Stephanie had got divorced due to Triple H being stratusfied by Trish. Well, I'm playing as Vince, and no one hurts my million dollar princess. So the booking was changed, Trips dropped the world title to RVD and will job to Shawn at Mania, and he'll job for the rest of the year as well. His punishment following the Curtain Call will have nothing on what he's got coming over the next 12 months.</p>

Current playing a CZCW game which is entering March 2022.

 

I've risen to medium size, and now the owner wants us to hit big in under 2 years- which seems a little optimistic considering my 16 pop in the Tri States, 17 in the Mid Atlantic a 14 in New England.

 

Championships;

 

Coastal Zone Championship - held by Frankie Perez, he won the belt from Aldous Blackfriar a couple months ago. My other former champions are Masked Cougar, and American Flash ( who won it from Perez in June 2020 ). Other than Blackfriar I haven't been able to find or create any new main event singles stars, but am looking at possibly Skye Hermosa to take the belt in the future.

 

Coastal Zone Openweight Championship - a self created title, used as a bridge between the Xtreme and Coastal Zone Championship. Currently held my Mobstar. Former champions are C.L.M, Pablo Rodriguez ( used as kind of a send off to a legend ), Skye Hermosa ( first female champion in CZCW ), and Chess Maniac, who won it in the initial tournament for the championship. I imagine I'll be taking it off Mobstar in time, and trying to move him up to the main event as he's been putting in great performances for me.

 

Coastal Zone Xtreme - Christie Higgins is the champ, having just won the belt from LA Estrella. I plan for her to have a 3-4 month reign before losing the title to Pavel Vanzycha who I lured over from Europe. It's very much a secondary title for me and I've used it for lower midcard/midcard talent to prove themselves, once they've been to being a star ( or max out at well known for a few months ) I have them drop the belt to another worker who's impressed me.

 

Coastal Zone Tag Team - Currently held by Rich and Famous, who I lured back to the west coast from PSW. They recently won it from The California Dreams who were the first female team to hold the title. Other former champions include Flash Sparrow who had a short reign, used to get American Flash back into the ring post injury, and to send off Matt Sparrow before he got to job down the car. Going Coastal x2, the Wild Cats, and the American Cobras. Notorious initially held the title but dropped it to going coastal at the first major event I booked.

 

The COTT titles are of less importance to me, as I plan on leaving the alliance sooner rather than later, but the COTT world is held by Frankie Boy Fernandes, the Rich and Famous hold the COTT tag.

 

The Big Stars

 

Unfortunately, as of now the singles side of the roster is very top heavy and aging fast. I only have 4 guys I would consider good enough to be world champion at this moment in time.

 

Frankie Perez - Undoubtedly my #1. Always involved in the title storyline even if he doesn't directly hold the belt. His aerial ability has surprisingly improved over the past year, as has his selling, but his psychology seems stuck at 68-76. I plan to have him as a focal point for the next 4-5 years minimum as long as his skills don't decline sharply, but at 37 time decline could hit at any time.

 

American Flash - Though derailed by injury a couple of times now he is definitely my #2. and has great chemistry with Perez. I don't see him as a potential #1 however, due to low star quality. His in ring ability will keep him in the main event for hopefully a decade or so as he is only 32.

 

Aldous Blackfriar - great on the mic, 26 years old, but slightly lacking in star quality and not yet as good in the ring as my other top guys. Stole him from IPW before TCW could. He's shown improvements in every in ring aspect apart from brawling, and his on camera ability is great. If not for his 65 star quality he would be the heir to Perez as #1.

 

Masked Cougar - Company legend, been here since 2006, great in the ring, 88 star quality, lacking in mic skills, and his selling leaves a little to be desired but is improving. If it weren't for the fact he was 39, I would build the company around him. He is definitely a top 4 guy for me though, and will see another world title run in the future.

 

 

Top Tag Teams

 

The true cause of my weak singles roster is my strong tag roster, and love of tag team wrestling that makes me not want to break any of my top teams up. The tag titles have headlined major events before, and will do so again in the future.

 

Rich and Famous - Jake Idol and Jackpot Jordan, currently both the Coastal Zone and COTT tag champs. Initially stole them from PSW in order for them to return and be a mid level tag team, however they started to steal the show and quickly earned their way up the card. Due to them being 36/35 I don't plan to split them, as they have great chemistry and a tag team specialist bonus and 100 experience.

 

The Wild Cats - El Jaguar and Tigre Salvage Jr. Two great in the ring luchadores. Jaguar is 31, while Tigre is 35. Both could easily be world champions for me, and Tigre may get a title run at some point. But I definitely plan these guys to win a few more titles together in the future.

 

Going Coastal - Frankie Boy Fernandes and California Love Machine. Definitely my favourite team on the roster, loved them since I first got into TEW2013. However I plan to separate them in the near future as Frankie has potential to pull great singles performances and is definitely way stronger then CLM. Sadly- they have horrible chemistry while fighting each other so no big storyline there, just Frankie entering the world title picture while CLM does.. something. Though, they will reunite on occasion for tag title runs and if CLM improves slightly more he could be a world champion as well.

 

The California Dreams - It all started with a message from Remmy Skye he offered to put over Skye Hermosa, a young female talent who was considered unimportant. I had no plans for her, but then Pablo Rodriguez came calling, offering to do the same, followed by Masked Cougar, and Chess Maniac. Suddenly, she was the openweight champion. Her partner, Kira Lee. was still toiling in pre show matches during all of this, and all of a sudden, Pablo wants to put her over as well. Thus began the rise of The California Dreams, former preshow material and TV Jobbers, now rising up the card and becoming the first female tag team champions in CZCW history. Whilst they leave a little to be desired in the ring still, they're improving. I envision a feud between the two of them over the world title in the future, but only time will tell if they can reach that level. Time is on their side however, as Kira is only 22 and Skye 24.

 

The American Cobras - Marvel Malloy and Storm Spillane. As of now, the #5 team, both only being Stars as opposed to Major Stars like the rest. Whilst not great on the mic on in star quality they're great wrestlers. They perfectly fit into the roster and I plan on giving them another title run soon. Due to the lack of star quality I don't see either as a singles guy for me, but they could easily main event any show with how good they are.

 

 

Other Notables

 

La Estrella - Flashy, good in the ring, charismatic, and only 32. Took a while to build him up, but he has all the signs of a future world champion. He will play a big part in the company for the next few decade. By the end of the year I plan for him to be in the world title picture, if not champion.

 

Chess Maniac - as he is 37 he doesn't have a long future, his stamina is already showing signs of decline sadly. He is a good worker though, and if possible I'd like him to be a world champion but it seems unlikely due to long match requirements in my product.

 

Al Coleman - Good technical wrestler. not much to say beyond that. He's considered a star but I don't have any plans for him in the future, other than to put others over.

 

Christy Higgins - Solid female wrestler who is 34, still improving in every category and recently bumped up to 87 star quality. Currently holds the Xtreme title but will drop it in 2-3 months in order to move significantly up the card. By far the best female I have in the ring, and if her pop rises fast enough she could be CZCW's first female champion.

 

Mobstar - While his aerial skill leaves a little to be desired, he is a good brawler and technical wrestler. Combined with great basic, safety and consistency, he is a solid hand who has champion potential. He is 35 however, and may miss his chance as I need to build younger talent, and there are plenty of veterans ahead of him.

 

Matt Sparrow - I had minor plans for Matt, but a major concussion in February 2020 put him out immediately. While he is considered a star, that is just an after affect to his tag run along side American Flash late last year. He'll be jobbing his way down the card slowly for the next year or so.

 

The Night Terrors - Babau and Moroi, solid in ring talents with 100 experience together. They can make any match great and would be championship contenders if it weren't for the strong teams ahead of them on the card. They may get a title run in the next few years if they keep it up though.

 

 

Disappointments

 

Remmy Skye - While he was a big factor in kickstarting the rise of Skye Hermosa, he also decided- during her rise to main event status, to go out and injure her via a botch. He also injured Blackfriar during his build up to a title run. As much as I like him, he had to be let go. His inconsistency and lack of safety were too big of issues, topped off with physical decline.

 

Pablo Rodriguez - Due to his age and declining abilities he was never able to put on a good enough match to get the company to where it needed to be. Now only considered recognizable he is mainly used as a road agent, which he is great for. His only in ring appearances are usually to put over young talent, and he is often carried in those matches.

 

Notorious - Carlos Barrera and Miguel Rivera, our initial tag team champions. whilst they quickly dropped the belts I had plans for them to be a solid midcard team, Miguel would leave the company a few months in though. A little under a year later I resigned Miguel. However after slowly pushing them back up the card, Carlos left the company, and Miguel is currently out with a torn rotator cuff. They may eventually be reunited however as they both put in decent performances.

 

The Coastal Resort - first two classes produced a 1/5 workers who has potential. Recent upgrades make me more hopeful - as of now though. Talent has to come from elsewhere for the most part, the classes so far include;

 

Brett Angel 2020 - 7 pre show matches from April to November 2020 before being fired for being unsafe, injuring Kira Lee. Best match performance? 15.

OJ Donovan 2020 - 73 star quality, 88 menace. Not even toned body yet, so has room to be a true all star. The downside? 16-34 safety. which has doubled since he started. Has yet to hurt anyone. Luckily.

Peter Whitehead 2021 - 7 star quality. 12-57 brawling is his strongest stat. Only appeared in 14 matches. Has not hurt anyone though.

Dustin Jenkins - Showed some promise as a brawler/technician who could be used as a jobber. Had great chemistry with OJ Donovan. However, after injuring Stan Mann once, and Swipe Romero twice he was let go. Wrestled 45 matches, with 4 wins.

Daniel Rogers 2021 - An obese big heavyweight.. in the coastal zone? Has absolutely no upside. 0-45 in all in ring stats. Wrestled 15 matches in nearly 2 years. Mainly on the roster because I hire all coastal resort graduates.

 

The Next Generation

 

With an aging main event, it's time to look towards the youngest stars on the roster, some promising young prospects have been found but only time will tell if they can develop.

 

Amy St James - 22 years old, great fundamentals bar her selling, which is improving. Looks to be developing into an above average technician with passable brawling and aerial. Will make a good hand to help get people over in the coming years, maybe a secondary title or two in her future.

 

Young & Wasted - Bret Kyle along with Taylor Norton, 22 year old high flyers who are flashy and charismatic. Not enough star quality to carry the company, but should be able to produce great matches in a few years.

 

Cheryl Hayes - 21 year old rookie from Australia. Wrestled 1 independent match, which received a 9. 88 star quality, 46-91 Aerial/Flashiness. Really a wildcard prospect.

 

Juliet Balconi - not great in the ring, but very good camera skills. Also an outside career as an actor, very long shot prospect. She is a very long shot prospect, but could be a great manager.

 

The LA Stars - a tag team trained at the coastal resort in 2016 but never signed prior to 2020. They're low on the card, but put on great matches and at 24/25 definitely have titles in their future.

 

Noah Nadir - 76-89 flashiness. passable in ring skills and just 23 years old. A daredevil, deathmatch worker, soft drug user, with a wild personality. What could go wrong?

 

OJ Donovan - 23 year old who just oozes star quality. Protege of Masked Cougar, which will help as he lacks all fundamentals barring consistency. In ring he is an average at best brawler with his other skills leaving a lot to be desired. With the right development could carry the company, could also injure half the roster/local workers while trying to do so. Boom or bust prospect.

 

Pavel Vanzycha - 30 years old technician, not really a prospect to say. But he moved from Europe to the South West of America just because I asked. While lacking star quality, he is good in the ring and a giving performer. His lowest projection is a solid midcard hand who will be an asset to developing our young workers, potential upside is a world champion.

 

Shooting Star Perez - 22 years old, extremely flashy, extremely athletic high flying luchador. He has the potential to become a legend in the Coastal Zone.

El Jaguar actually became a top guy for me when Tigre signed with CWA. In the main event, Blackfriar, Flash and Cougar had already moved on (Cougar is still going in 2030) so I had to kind of rebuild their roster. They had a mass lay off/firing before I took over (I signed a few of them to ACPW). Really fun promotion to run, and for me, as a new player, only having to focus on Lightweights made it easier to scout talent and get a feel for the talent in the 'universe'. My big signing was Rock God Alvarez and his popularity in US and Mexico took CZCW to another level. The fact that CZCW's home is California made it important to me to tap into the Mexican fanbase to grow the promotion, and Rock God was key to that.

Just finished IYH Feb in my 1997 save, 2nd PPV of the game so far.

 

Sycho Sid was still champion, he lost via DQ to HBK at Royal Rumble and put Michaels out for a month. Wrestlemania will be a no DQ/Street fight between the two but wont be for the title as I had Bret go over Sid at IYH winning the title.

 

Bret still face will go against heel Austin at Wrestlemania, Austin is getting over like mad and I will keep to real life with the double turn, been planting seeds for a while Bret being screwed by Austin at the Rumble but crowd cheering Austin when he won etc, so at Mania Bret beats Austin in a match where the crowd will be cheering Austin and Booing Bret when he wins, leading to him snapping and attacking Austin after the match.

 

Bret will pretend hes still a good guy he just lost sight of everything but ultimately its an act as he is back as leader of Hart Foundation in next week or 2.

 

Rocky Maivia went over British Bulldog for European title - this wasnt anything major storyline wise was just a tournament for title. Rock was soared to Well Known already so will need to sit down and plan out his next couple fueds as I think he is already too popular for the European title.

 

Brian Pillman went over Jake Roberts - This was a short fued I may pick up later down the line, Pillman just took dislike to the old pathetic shadow of him former self Roberts and would taunt him before and after his matches before finally attacking, spitting on him/generic hell tactics. This pushed Pillman to a star.

 

Mankind over Taker, Taker been fueding with Bearer since the game started he beat Vader cleanly at Rumble, now was Mankinds turn. Mankind went over Taker, distraction from Bearer/interference from Vader gave Mankind the oppertunity to take the W, changed Fake Diesel to Kane at start and been giving him matches on Raw etc to try get his pop up before bringing him in so technically hes been on TV but hes not really debuted yet, thinking of changing his introduction slightly, have Taker winning rematch against Mankind in a HIAC or Cage at Mania to keep out Vader/Bearer. Then either post match or at Raw have Mankind and Vader attack him, then the mystery man (Kane) makes the save and leaves, Taker and Bearer both look like they have seen a ghost, not decided how long after I will do this but basically Taker thinks Kane is on his side even though Kane isnt responding to anyone just showing up randomly in real life himself and attacking etc, eventually its Kane & Undertaker vs Mankind & Vader - thinking on Raw not PPV as match wont properly start just be a brawl and when Taker and Kane stand side by side in the ring will have Kane turn and attack - Was Bearers plan all along he was sick of Mankind and Vader failings against Taker so be brought back Kane.

 

Will have Taker and Kane fued with Taker again true to real life refuse to fight Kane so thinking this match wont happen until KOTR or Summerslam.

 

Mankind is a Major Star now and I may turn him face like real life and slowly introduce Dude Love/Cactus Jack again. Need to write out a plan for Foley in the next few months.

 

Triple H is still IC champ he went over Owen Hart & Mero in a triple threat, Owen and Bulldog after losing tag titles said they would bring gold back individually so they are both getting very frustrated, this will tie in with Bret being back at Foundation as with Heel Bret leading them, the entire Hart family at one point will all hold titles.

 

Goldust and Ahmed unlikely duo teamed up to take on Nation this is going to be dropped after this PPV it was just used to get another match on the card, have no real plans for a push for Ahmed, few ideas lined up for Goldust hes classed as a star currently so may use him to try elavate some heels.

 

Light Heavyweight title is being introduced and over next month will have my light heavyweights get some decent TV time on Raw likes of - Rey, Ultimo, Kidman, Taka, Juvetud, Christopher Daniels, Lance Storm (although thinking of pushing him more for European but for now hes part of this) Essa Rios, Shane Helms, Teddy Hart & Tajiri - Most of them are total unknowns pop wise so only real likely winner at the moment is Ultimo.

 

Next few days will try map out Mania/KOTR/Summerslam main matches, nothing spectacular so far but I am enjoying it, Ive struggled with TEW in the past thinking I need to have every angle/match planned out in advance, every angle has to be a storyline etc which leaves me stuck in week 1 for such a long time but I am having fun with this one so far.

<p>Currently in pain in my MAW TEW Save. It's 2026 at this point and up until late 2025 I wasnt having many issues but recently every single one of my major stars and stars have been getting offers from bigger companies. It doesn't help that I gave myself the rule of no exclusive contracts because it goes against what MAW stands for but it's starting to get ridiculous.</p><p> </p><p>

After Where it all begins again 2025 I had Copperhead, Deever Arnold, Matty Faith, Fro Sure, Miller Fforde, The Heartbreak Express, Tyrone Gray, Wild Red Stallion, Acid II, Donte Dunn and Frankie Perez all signed by the time we've reached June 2026. I wouldnt be so mad if it was just my main eventers being signed (Faith, Fro, Fforde and Deever) but the people I had lined up to take over from them and lead the main event scene (Tyrone Gray, Wild Red Stallion, Donte) were signed as well. I now only have 4 major stars (Nate DeMarcus, James Diaz, Logan Wolfsbaine and my champion Austin Smooth) with zero stars. The rest is Well Known and below so trying to bring them up to main event level is proving to be a big struggle without sacrificing one of my big 4. There's not even any big unsigned talent I can sign to just sacrifice for their pop either, everyone and anyone is getting signed.</p><p> </p><p>

I think its a consequence of the Wrestleworld deals as a lot of my talent are being offered exclusive written deals by CZCW, EMLL and ACPW which sucks. It also doesnt help when random offers come in like Frankie Perez (who was American champion at the time) being signed by Burning Hammer at the age of 43. He was also a great mentor for Bret Kyle and War Piece which I think made it hurt more.</p><p> </p><p>

Despite these issues im still loving MAW and I think trying to salvage it is making it even more fun even though it can be frustrating. My roster has a few too many mid to late 30s wrestlers for my liking right now but it's essential to utilize them while my younger talent develop and grow. my midcard scene is a mix of the two with Jebediah (American champion), Xavier Reckless, The Dynamite Express (Tag champs) and The Architect working alongside the future of Young and Wasted, Americana Jr, Motoyuki Miyake (Rip Chord Invitational winner but lost title shot to Nate DeMarcus) and the team of Original Sinner and Bret Heartbreak.</p><p> </p><p>

My current champions are:</p><p> </p><p>

MAW Champion-Austin Smooth-262 days, 7 title defences. Won it from Matty Faith. Will lose it at Where it all begins again to Nate DeMarcus</p><p> </p><p>

MAW American Champion-Jebediah-2 days, 0 defences. Won it from Frankie Perez but the original plan was for Donte Dunn to win it. Will probably lose it fairly quickly to a younger talent</p><p> </p><p>

MAW Tag Team Champions-The Dynamite Express (4)-2 days, 0 defences. Won them from The Rise of the monsters (James Diaz and Logan Wolfsbaine). Will lose them back to ROTM at The Clash to lead too a 3rd match between them at WIABA.</p><p> </p><p>

Rip Chord Invitational winner 2026-Motoyuki Miyake. Shocked the world when he beat clear favourite for the tournament Nate DeMarcus but has spent the past 6 months getting targeted alongside his tag partner Christopher Ball by Nate DeMarcus and the rest of Chaos Project (Kamikaze, Hawkeye Calhoun and the new addition of Stuntman)</p><p> </p><p>

Sam Keith Classic winners 2025-Rise of the Monsters. Not sure on who will win 2026 yet but with my WIABA plans already in place it'll probably be a thrown together tandem including Austin Smooth</p>

A lot of the thing's I planned I switched around and changed a few things because I decided on the main route that I want to go.</p><p> </p><p> First big thing to recap was the Sam Keith Classic where the final saw the team of MAW Champion Austin Smooth and Americana Jr lose in shocking fashion to the KO Artists, Christopher Ball and Motoyuki Miyake. This was huge for Motoyuki who became the first (?) person to win the Rip Chord Invitational and Sam Keith Classic in the same year. The only other things of note before Where it all begins again were that Hawkeye Calhoun defeated Jebediah to become American Champion and that Rise of the Monsters (James Diaz and Logan Wolfsbaine) regained their tag titles from Dynamite Express.</p><p> </p><p> Where it All Begins again then went off without a hitch. James Diaz and Logan Wolfsbaine retained their recently re-won tag titles against The Dynamite Express, Christopher Ball defeated Hawkeye Calhoun to become American Champion and The Architect won the vacant COTT World Heavyweight title when he defeated Jebediah as Bradley Blaze "got injured" before the show. He has also affiliated himself with Prometheus who works as his bodyguard and defender and who will likely be integral to helping Architect retain his title.</p><p> </p><p> Since WIABA we haven't had any more title charges with Chris Ball retaining his American title at night 2 of the RCI against Zel Quinn, Rise of the Monsters retained against Bright Lights and Austin retaining his title in a 6 man tag match where he and The KO Artists beat The Chaos Project of Nate DeMarcus, Kamikaze and Hawkeye Calhoun. </p><p> </p><p> The big story coming out of the Rip Chord Invitational is that for the 2nd year in a row Motoyuki Miyake would be crowned the winner but under dubious circumstances. Miyake beat Americana Jr AND Logan Wolfsbaine in the first ever Triple Threat final because the fourth semi-finalist War Piece was brutalized by Taylor Norton after his shock victory in the Quarters. Due to the injury he was not able to compete and Commisioner Peverell announced the main event to be a triple threat.</p><p> </p><p> My main plans for the year revolve around Austin Smooth and The KO Artists. With Miyake beating Wolfsbaine in the RCI that will lead to Rise of The Monsters vs The KO Artists for the tag titles with KO Artists ultimately winning the titles before the next month Miyake will unsuccessfully challenge for the MAW Title. Austin Smooth will either turn heel during or after the match but we've been subtly turning him heel for the past few months and he's going to become a Cocky A-Hole and with wins over both Miyake and Ball he will go full Belt Collector and challenge for the Tag Titles and American Title. Eventually it will lead to him finally losing the title at this year's Where it all begins again to Motoyuki Miyake in an Iron Man match</p>

The year is 1992 and WWF head booker David Schultz just held his 8th successful Wrestlemania.

 

The Titles

Every active WWF title changed hands at this year's showcase of the immortals.

 

Randy Savage returned from retirement to topple longtime rival Ric Flair for his WWF Championship

Bret Hart won his once in a lifetime encounter against Rowdy Roddy Piper

The Legion of Doom reclaimed their dominant spot at the top from Ted DiBiase and his muscle Bam Bam Bigelow

 

The World at Large

Hulk Hogan has taken an indefinite leave of absence from the WWF to pursue his dreams of becoming an actor. His most recent film Suburban Commando can best be described as "definitely a movie" but we wish him luck in his future endeavors.

 

Bad News Allen has shocked the wrestling world by defeating Diamond Dallas Page for the WCW World Heavyweight Championship and becoming the first African American world champion. WCW United States Champion Junkyard Dog celebrated with Allen after the match.

 

Brilliant Wrestling International has secured their foothold in the wrestling world by purchasing New Japan Pro Wrestling and the American Wrestling Association. As a consequence, the IWGP has been disbanded but BWI will carry its name value for future titles and events.

 

Davey Boy Smith's AJPW is about to expire and the young star has sparked a massive bidding war between the titan of professional wrestling [AJPW, BWI, WWF, WCW, USWA]. It is rumored he will sign with the WWF for $140,000 per month for 4 years.

 

Antonio Inoki's retirement speech at Wrestlemania VIII appears to be genuine. No one knows what's next for the Japanese legend or his final opponent, Shawn Michaels.

 

WWF Superstars

After losing his WWF Championship, Ric Flair has left the WWF for Dusty Rhodes and World Championship Wrestling. Arn Anderson will likely join him when his contract expires in July, officially ending the 5 year dominance of the Four Horsemen in the WWF. There are no concrete plans for other horsemen Lex Luger and Bobby Eaton.

 

Bobby Heenan is forming another family. Jim Cornette plans on leaving the WWF to focus on running Smokey Mountain Wrestling. The Genius will likely take Barry Windham and Matt Borne into his fold injecting a prominent sense of normalcy in an otherwise colorful WWF scene.

 

Higher ups in the WWF are set to let the contracts of their older stars expire to initiate a 'new generation' in the company. Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, Bam Bam Bigelow, The Colorado Kid, Tom Magee, Farooq Asad, and Crush are all names circling as flagbearers.

 

Summerslam 1992

The next big event in the calendar year is Summerslam 1992 set in Wembly Stadium.

 

As a bargaining chip in the bidding war, Davey Boy Smith has been offered a title match for The Hitman's Intercontinental title. One has to wonder if the WWF will escalate to a world title match.

 

The marquee match of the event will be Randy Savage vs The Ultimate Warrior, whether this is a title match or not.

 

The seeds have been planted, Bam Bam Bigelow will turn against his benefactor Ted DiBiase and the two will have their blowoff match at the Showcase of the Summer.

 

With Jimmy Garvin and Terry Gordy departing, the Legion of Doom lack any legitimate opponents for the event. Perhaps the Headshrinkers or Power of Pain will get the rub for this event.

 

Curt Hennig will give Crush the rub. The former world champion has identified Brian Adams as a standout wrestler and agreed to put the young man over.

I'm in December 1993 in the Peaking Tides mode.

 

I couldn't get the belt off Hogan one year ago so I did a screwjob with him and Flair at Tuesday in Texas. He left and went to WCW and I had Warrior go over Flair at Mania IX and become the new figurehead.

 

Right now, Warrior is still the champion and in an extended feud with Sid Justice, and producing terrible matches that forces me to NEVER have him in the main event. The only time he's main evented was against Flair at Mania and Michaels at KOTR 1993, so this thing isn't going well. At least we're making lots of money.

 

HBK is still with Sherri and is the I-C champ since he beat Bret at SummerSlam 1992. He's also Tag Champs with Diesel since beating LOD at SNME in October 1993. Razor is gaining steam, so I'm going to try to do a ladder match between Shawn and he at Mania X.

 

The BIG storyline has been a "Passing of the Torch" storyline with Bret and Savage. They started a friendly rivalry where Bret wanted to become the new standard bearer for the company, but Savage felt he could still go. This led to the main event of SummerSlam where Bret submitted Savage in the sharpshooter. After this Savage said that maybe Bret was the guy, but he thought they could do great things together. Savage said that he's held every title in WWF except for the tag titles. Bret accepted and he and Savage started working tag matches and started a mini-feud with Michaels and Diesel.

 

The ORIGINAL plan was going to be Michaels and Diesel winning the tag titles (which they did) and Bret and Savage challenging them at the December SNME, which would end with Savage turning on Bret, saying he is still the standard bearer. This would lead to Savage and Bret being the last two in the Royal Rumble, which Savage would win. Savage would then go on to defeat Warrior at WrestleMania X and then would duck Bret until they have their rematch at SummerSlam 1994 when Bret finally goes over and becomes champion.

 

What actually happened was Bret broke his orbital bone in late October (out for 6 months) and I was forced to turn Savage early (being the cause of the injury) and put him in a feud with Perfect for Survivor Series and December SNME. The rest of the plan can proceed as planned, maybe with Bret showing up after the Mania main event, assuming he's healed by then.

That's pretty awesome. I will have to save that "template" for the future.

 

I have a bloated roster at tiny (US touring company) but it works out because there's some people who only fight on the pre-show. Anyway, I forgot to hire some extra folks for my first tournament (to crown the initial champion). I ran a test on paper, and if it was 10 people round robin I ended up with a few people who won very little, so why bother having them in. Rather than start again, I've decided to do 6 people, double round robin. It keeps it far more "elite." I have a plan on who I want at the end, which should make for an interesting story.

 

The 6 participants will be Chris Caulfield, Harry Allen, and Rayne Man for the faces and Texas Pete, Doug Peak, and Raphael for the heels.

<p>As a Tiny company, I doubt the ratings would tank much, but I usually use the unscripted segments in my pre-show and scripted promos/segments on the main show, with a few exceptions. That way I can find if they are any good at improvising before turning them loose. </p><p> </p><p>

One of the exceptions is if I am playing a clip of them on a Podcast (I have Phil Vibert on my announce team), then it's sink or swim on those segments.</p>

On my save I am currently doing a playthrough of SWF and I am at week 4 in October 2020. My product started out as classic sports entertainment but changed it to the Attitude era which I have dubbed Eisen Attitude Entertainment and since doing that having been doing 85+ shows and been beating USPW in the area battle. My current champions are as follows: SWF World Heavyweight Champion: Hollywood Brett Starr (cashed in his Earn Your Opportunity briefcase at Supreme Challenge 40 in the main event between Rocky Golden and Remo) SWF North American Champion: Captain AS Supreme (fka Atom Smasher who beat Lenny Brown at Welcome to The Jungle 2020) SWF World Tag Team Champions: Hawaiian Crush (Beat Fame N Money at SC 40 who were handed their third reign by Matty Faith also at SC 40 when his partner Cameron Vessey got injured three days prior to SC40 at house show). I have a second show called SWF Uprising which is a one hour b show taped straight after Supreme TV and aired on Saturdays on Netstream, the commentators are Franklin Furmier, Tim Weightman and Grace Harper. I also have Forest Ratzloff in the main roster after his year long reign as RIPW Champion ended to Hellion and he is a heel and under a gimmick called The Specimen (Essentially Rick Rude's gimmick) and has a two match win streak against Steven Parker and Cameron Vessey in an attempt to raise his popularity, I'm also planning to have Joe Sexy as his manager as he currently lacks the charisma and also Sexy took Ratzloff under his wing. I am currently doing a SWF Intercontinental title tournament where eventual winner Lenny Brown will face Captain AS Supreme in a title unification ladder match as they have currently been in a long term storyline since the Tuesday after Supreme TV. I have Eric Eisen(who I am as booker) as the evil on screen C.E.O and leader of The Supremacy (think WWF's Corporation) and Jack Bruce who returned on the Supreme TV after Supreme Challenge 40 as the SWF Commissioner. Stablewise I have The Supremacy which has Eisen as the leader, Primus Allen as the Muscle, Remo as the "future corporate champion", The Crippler, Des Davids, Spencer Spade and Dulce Moreno and Captain AS Supreme. The Rat Pack which has as you know Starr, Fame N Money and Justin Sensitive but I added Dominic DeSousa. Unleashed Awesomeness is unchanged, The Order of Evil a cult led by Scythe and contains John Greed, Avalanche, Chill and Kristen Pearce and finally Big Money Inc which is led by Brandon James and has Krissy Angelle, Rich and Famous and Bear Bekowski as the muscle. Storyline wise I have Golden, Starr and Remo who have been in rivalry since just after SC 40 and only just added a newly short haired Valiant (lost a hair vs mask match to Scythe), the aforementioned Lenny Brown/Supreme rivalry, ZWB and The Crippler, Joey Morgan and Scythe and The Cali Dragons vs Unleashed Awesomeness. And finally signing signing wise a few decent young workers to RIPW, Dread to RIPW as a road agent (mainly because Dreadnought is in RIPW too managed by Lisa Bowen) Absolutely Flawless are also in RIPW to learn the SWF style, my plan is to bring them up after a year to the main roster, now main roster there has been Cameron Vessey, Rich and Famous, Kip Keenan, Frankie Perez (wrestling as Kill Switch) and my most recent signings awaiting debut current USPW World Champion Trent Shaafer and his manager Raven Robinson (Raven in SWF). I hope you all like what is currently happening in my save :)

I wish you had broken up your write-up into separate paragraphs so it would be a bit easier to read. But I appreciate many aspects of your save. "The Specimen" as a gimmick name for Forest Ratzloff is quite good, and I'm sure he'll turn into a solid midcarder if you put him in a team with a heel who is a more experienced & better wrestler than him. I like all of your factions as well. It definitely reminds me of the Attitude Era. Your signings all sound good as well. I'm looking forward to seeing how your game evolves in the next post.

 

Appreciate it man! I am doing this from my phone so it's more trickier to space out for paragraphs like I would if I was on the laptop. That's the whole basis of trying to keep it like the Attitude era in an attempt to become the No.1 promotion and knock off USPW from their throne, as for Ratzloff at the moment since pairing him with Sexy with back to back victories over Parker, Vessey, High Flying Hawaiian and Ekuma his perception rating has gone to recognisable and is set to beat Robbie Retro in the quarter finals of the IC tournament. Going by Forrest's gimmick it's going to move merch as his star rises so I am looking forward to seeing how he develops in the coming months :) I will definitely post later on to give you all an update as I have plans in my head which for some will go up to SC 41 but don't want to spoil anything 😀

So it's been about seven in game months since the last update

 

Another year has passed and I've now just completed March 2028 with Super Showdown being my latest event.

 

My main story throughout 2027 resolved around Austin Smooth and Motoyuki Miyake. Austin went into 2027 as the MAW Champion, a thriving babyface who had defeated all the top heels in the company and was going well until he came up against the one man that could truly match him: Motoyuki Miyake. Miyake had won the Rip Chord Invitational for the 2nd year in a row and alongside Christopher Ball he became tag team champions for the 2nd time in March 2027, defeating James Diaz and Logan Wolfsbaine. The next month he would cash in his earned title shot but in shocking fashion Austin Smooth took advantage of a referee distraction to low blow Miyake. Austin dubbed himself "Big Money" Austin Smooth the next month and proceeded to go on an ego trip that saw him defeat Christopher Ball for the American Title and also win the Tag Titles from The KO Artists (with Christopher Ball). However he kept ducking the big title rematch with Miyake until he got pinned in a 6 man tag match and Commissioner Westybrook made it official for the main event of Where it all begins again. Austin threw everything at Miyake and even aligned himself with James Diaz and Logan Wolfsbaine (forming Ri$e of the Mon$ters). However, despite his best interests Miyake would prevail at Where it all begins again and ended the monstrous 728 day MAW Championship reign of Smooth.

 

Following this Miyake's reign has been in a constant fight with Ri$e of the Mon$ters and their new addition of a returning Fro Sure who took lead of the group while Austin Smooth was AWOL after WIABA. However, Miyake was also boosted by a major development that saw a departing Nate DeMarcus unite his stable, The Chaos Project (Kamikaze, Hawkeye Calhoun and Stuntman), with their long time rivals turned allies in The Knockout Artists (Miyake and Chris Ball). They become a collective stable now known as The Knockout Project. Miyake successfully defended his title against Fro Sure at Night of the Champions and Sione Tokoeka at The Rip Chord Invitational to start his reign off strong. Speaking of the RCI, Logan Wolfsbaine would be the one to win the 2028 iteration of the tournament, defeating Miyake's tag partner and friend Christopher Ball in the final. This lead to the best match in Mid Atlantic history at The Wrestling Classic where Destroyer Logan Wolfsbaine defeated Motoyuki Miyake to become MAW Champion following the interference of a returning AUSTIN SMOOTH. The Ri$e of the Mon$ters now stand tall over the company and are set for all out war against The Knockout Project in a huge stable warfare.

 

Elsewhere, in the midst of Austin Smooth's ego run he picked up the Tag Titles and the American title to be known as Austin-3-belts but Commisioner Westybrook decided with Austin unwilling to defend either title that both titles would be hereby vacated. The first of which was the American title as a huge 6 man elimination match at the Battle of the Mid Atlantic saw Taylor Norton become American champion. Norton has been one of my favourite people to book the last year and this was my way of rewarding him as he headed into Where it all begins again as the American champion. The main reason for Norton winning the title was to have his year long feud with War Piece end at the biggest show of the year. The match ended up being a Mask vs Hair match with the title also on the line and War Piece would come out on top, shaving Taylor Norton bald at the culmination of the match. Following this War Piece would put up a good reign, making defences against Robin DaLay, Drew Danson and Roderick Flack. His big issues started to arrive when he concerned himself with Nehemiah Loynes (Regen) and Barron Royal. The two aligned themselves together to try and attack and take the American title when a new masked man named Allen Simmons came to his aid. The youngster had never been seen before but quickly struck up a friendship and tag team with the American champion and within just three months they would challenge for the tag titles against The Deadly Sinners. Also on the same show War Piece was slated to defend his title against Eureka LaBelle who had a storming first 4 months since joining the company. The night could not have gone worse for War Piece as in the Tag Title match he would be turned on by his tag partner who unmasked to reveal that all along it had been his arch rival Taylor Norton and he joined Nehemiah and Royal in beating down War Piece. War Piece was given the chance by Commisioner Westybrook to not defend his title due to an injury but he went ahead with the match and it would cost him big time as it turns out Eureka was in cahoots with the trio as well and they cost him his American title.

 

The tag title situation is a lot simpler. After the tag titles were vacated, Westybrook put them on the line in the Sam Keith Classic and made the tournament even more important than it already was. James Diaz and Logan Wolfsbaine were the clear favourites for the tournament but it would be a shock result as The Chaos Project's Kamikaze and Stuntman became tag champs thanks to an interference from Nate DeMarcus. This led to DeMarcus' face turn and forming of The Knockout Project. Kamikaze and Stuntman got in a few good defences of the titles but in a Where it all begins again rematch at The Proving Ground they would lose their titles to The Deadly Sinners (Bret Heartbreak and Original Sinner) following interference from James Diaz. Ever since then nobody has been able to touch the dominant duo and next in line to face them will be The Ring Generals, the legendary tag team who made their return at Where it all begins again to answer the open challenge and final ever MAW match of The Dynamite Express.

 

I made such a big deal of Austin Smooth's return but he announced a month later that he was off to film a blockbuster film so we'll be losing him again in two months. He's going to lose to Miyake again on his way out leading to one final Miyake vs Wolfsbaine matchup. We've got faction warfare all over the place in MAW currently with another trio forming of Ralph Liotta, Nelson Callum and Robin DaLay who have dubbed themselves The Wild West following DaLay turning on his mentor Brad Blaze (blaze got signed). I'm super happy with my roster and current projectory of the company and its the first time in years my roster hasnt felt ravaged by companies and in a rebuild stage. My main project for the next 6 months is building up someone I've always wanted to book but never got the chance too until now, Matt Blackburn. He was released by PGHW and now I'm going to give him a big push from the off, likely aligning him with the Ri$e of the Mon$ters with Austin leaving for a while.

<p>I'm in October of 2020 with TCW, my first TEW game ever, I've left and kicked around games with other mods and such, but always come back to this one cause it's the most fun for me.</p><p> </p><p>

I am just ending a feud between Aaron Andrews and Jay Chord for the world title. Andrews won the first battle in July, and then Chord won the rematch in August leading to the rubber match which just happened in a cell at Excessive Force. Chord won again, and both guys had massive ratings, but I apparently had done another match at some point between the two and so I got crushed with a massive penalty for it being their fourth match in the last handful of months and so it screwed over the whole show's rating.</p><p> </p><p>

Chord is currently the leader of a stable called "The New Era" which also has Ernest Youngman, Nelson Callum, Jackpot Jordan and Jake Idol. Youngman has been rising up my ladder incredibly fast. Joshua Taylor has been feuding with the stable and just took out Youngman at Excessive Force. He is now next in line to take on Chord for the title. Taylor has been on absolute fire for me in terms of match ratings, so I am hopeful this will be one of my best matches so far.</p><p> </p><p>

The tag titles are held by Mighty Mo and T-Bone Bright (Towers of Destruction) who consistently turn in match performances of 85+ for me. They are locked into a feud right now with Greg Gauge and Matthew Keith (Heirs to the Throne). ToD won the first match, but I am planning to have the Heirs win the rematch so I can shift Mo and T-Bone back to singles work, possibly turning one of them heel, haven't decided on that yet.</p><p> </p><p>

Wolf Hawkins lost to Aaron Andrews at Total Mayhem and was subsequently jumped by The Syndicate and Freddy Huggins who took over as leader while Wolf was out for three months with an injury. Wolf is back now as a face and working on picking off The Syndicate one by one which will ultimately culminate with Wolf vs. Huggins for at least one, if not more, matches.</p><p> </p><p>

I am going to have Aaron Andrews work a story with Sinner's Society next, with Eddie Peak already taunting him for his loss. Sycthe just debuted for me at Excessive Force, helping Eddie Peak defeat Matt Hocking who is now a face. Sycthe will be heavily involved in this angle and it will likely go on for a bit considering all the different opponents for Andrews here and ways I can mix in other characters.</p><p> </p><p>

Benny Benson is a heel and he has had the Television Title for a few months now, just ending a really strong feud with Edd Stone. Benson has a bodyguard in Mutant, which has been fun to work with.

Playing 2006 Shifting Sands mod as TNA. I'm now in September 2006 and Monty Brown has won a surprise victory over Sting at No Surrender to win the NWA World Heavyweight title...with the help of a debuting Ric Flair. This is building to a Sting vs Ric Flair main event at Bound for Glory, and Monty Brown vs Ron Killings for the NWA title. Killings won a King of the Mountain match to become No. 1 contender.

 

Further down the card, AJ Styles and Matt Hardy are NWA World Tag Team champions, having beaten LAX, and are now feuding with Austin Aries and Roderick Strong. Rhino turned on his former friend Christian Cage, and they will face each other in a Falls Count Anywhere match at Bound for Glory. Alex Shelley is X-Division champion having beaten Christopher Daniels, and is now feuding with a debuting Paul London who was released by WWE. I've introduced a Women's Division and Awesome Kong is the inaugural champion, having defeated Lisa (formerly Victoria in WWE). Samoa Joe is continuing his undefeated streak and has recently feuded with Jerry Lynn and visiting New Japan stars, and is set to turn face.

 

I'm thinking of introducing a United States title for the midcard for names like Raven, Abyss, Jeff Jarrett, Bobby Roode, Andrew Martin (Test) to feud over.

 

My plan is for Monty Brown to hold the belt for a while with Flair and America's Most Wanted as a kind of Four Horsemen type stable, feuding with Christian Cage, and for him to eventually drop the belt to Samoa Joe.

I'm in October of 2020 with TCW, my first TEW game ever, I've left and kicked around games with other mods and such, but always come back to this one cause it's the most fun for me.

 

I am just ending a feud between Aaron Andrews and Jay Chord for the world title. Andrews won the first battle in July, and then Chord won the rematch in August leading to the rubber match which just happened in a cell at Excessive Force. Chord won again, and both guys had massive ratings, but I apparently had done another match at some point between the two and so I got crushed with a massive penalty for it being their fourth match in the last handful of months and so it screwed over the whole show's rating.

 

Chord is currently the leader of a stable called "The New Era" which also has Ernest Youngman, Nelson Callum, Jackpot Jordan and Jake Idol. Youngman has been rising up my ladder incredibly fast. Joshua Taylor has been feuding with the stable and just took out Youngman at Excessive Force. He is now next in line to take on Chord for the title. Taylor has been on absolute fire for me in terms of match ratings, so I am hopeful this will be one of my best matches so far.

 

The tag titles are held by Mighty Mo and T-Bone Bright (Towers of Destruction) who consistently turn in match performances of 85+ for me. They are locked into a feud right now with Greg Gauge and Matthew Keith (Heirs to the Throne). ToD won the first match, but I am planning to have the Heirs win the rematch so I can shift Mo and T-Bone back to singles work, possibly turning one of them heel, haven't decided on that yet.

 

Wolf Hawkins lost to Aaron Andrews at Total Mayhem and was subsequently jumped by The Syndicate and Freddy Huggins who took over as leader while Wolf was out for three months with an injury. Wolf is back now as a face and working on picking off The Syndicate one by one which will ultimately culminate with Wolf vs. Huggins for at least one, if not more, matches.

 

I am going to have Aaron Andrews work a story with Sinner's Society next, with Eddie Peak already taunting him for his loss. Sycthe just debuted for me at Excessive Force, helping Eddie Peak defeat Matt Hocking who is now a face. Sycthe will be heavily involved in this angle and it will likely go on for a bit considering all the different opponents for Andrews here and ways I can mix in other characters.

 

Benny Benson is a heel and he has had the Television Title for a few months now, just ending a really strong feud with Edd Stone. Benson has a bodyguard in Mutant, which has been fun to work with. I haven't decided on a firm direction for where to go next with the title in terms of storylines, though I plan to unload the title onto a younger character to build up in due time.

 

A heel Benson is interesting to me. Whats Sammy BAch been doing? What about Hocking? Elliott Thomas?
