Forky Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 It appears the 2016 version of the mod has that area pretty set, anyone specific that it is missing? I'll take a look through and see what I can turn up and provide a list of the ones that are missing that I think would be cool to add.

SpiceDawg Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 If there's any yet to debut workers you'd like to see in the data, feel free to list them as that's my second task after I get through the initial workers.! I've always wanted Mad Maxine to be part of this database. She was originally pegged to be Wendi Richter's challenger after Wrestlemania and at one point, there was images of her cartoon character that was supposed to be in Hulk Hogan's Rock and Wrestling cartoon. She ended up only being in WWF for a cup of coffee and her character got replaced by Fabulous Moolah in the series. She ended up never being a big deal, so I get her not being included but she has been in other Mods, and this is the one that she'd have had the best potential to be a star. Also if you watch WWF shows from this time, Richter got a hell of a pop only rivaled by Hulk Hogan and Andre the Giant types. I am sure a lot of it was due to Cyndi Lauper but I don't think most Mods really understand that was she a legit star for a short period and if WWF gave a shit about women's wrestling that she could have been a top draw in 1980s WWF. I would love for that to be reflected better this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steamboat80 Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 I'll take a look at Mad Maxine tonight. If I can find enough info I'll get her added. As for Wendi, I'll do some tests with bumping her popularity up. I do know she was one of the biggest stars of the era so she should definitely have pop indicating that. I'm glad you are looking into this. As someone who always plays with a woman's division I'm always in favor of adding female workers. I also agree that Richter's popularly is underrated in the mod. Though, if I remember right, this was one of the easier mod's to get the woman's division over in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Strangelove Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 Is this mod likely to be released sometime around TEW2020’s release? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisGhensi Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 So, uh, I don't know if you'd be interested in this, but as an Aussie who began wrestling last year, I've always wanted to see more Aussie promotions and wrestlers in real world mods. Having met a few over the past year and spent some time studying the (admittedly not burgeoning) wrestling scene over here, I could give you some names and info on a few of them. I'm terrible at determining people's skill levels unless they're HIGHLY one way or the other, but I can find some videos of people and for any of the wrestlers I've met or heard stories about, I can definitely give you some personality traits of theirs if you're interested.

Kijar Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 <p>Great to see you continuing this. Matt and I have been great friends for over a decade now, and I feel his work is still underappreciated.

Verbalcody Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Super appreciative this is being worked on! 80s / 90s are all I ever play and with release looming im super excited to see this is being worked on still as Ive played this mod to death over the last decade. Once more through gorilla! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RatedRKO16 Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 If I do buy 2020 down the line, it looks like this will be the first mod I'm interested in playing thats been announced. Very excited for it. It was in my Top 3 from 2016. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TouchMeTwice Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 This is pretty much the mod I'm waiting to get released before I buy TEW 2020. Will this mod have companies that are created as time goes on, like ECW, AEW, Impact, etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Munit Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Yeah this will for sure be my go to Mod to that will get the most play out of the "real world" mods. Gonna be so much fun seeing the game world progress over the decades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theheel Posted May 14, 2020 Share Posted May 14, 2020 Just curious as I haven’t seen him often show up, but is Snake Brown listed as a worker in this mod? One of my favorite flaky jobbers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattywood Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Glad to see this is ongoing, I remember way back when Matt Shannon started this project and I am glad you are keeping the legacy going! Actually, I think it was Alvarasus that got the ball rolling way back. Even came up with the name! He let me take over when life got in the way (I think that's what happened... Been so long), & now I've let Jaysin do the same for the same reason. I hope he's having as much fun putting it together as I did for TEW 2013. I think my favorite part was taking after Fleisch & writing the backstories behind the various alter egos for workers, much like he (Fleisch... pronouns, pal) did for Real World Chronicles. Has it really been that long since I first worked on this? As far as favorite things that occurred when I played the data back on TEW 2013, I always left He-Man active because I thought it was hilarious when World Class would sign him.

mjuww Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Hopeful on this one. This is the time period I'm looking for. I'm going to combine AWA/WCCW/Stampede and maybe Championship Wrestling from Florida into a super company to challenge the WWF & JCP. One company, 3/4 seperate brands to keep the promotions separate and then with super shows every month with combined rosters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TouchMeTwice Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 I'm in no way rushing Jaysin because I'd much rather this mod be excellent than rushed and buggy, and I know you said you don't have an ETA, but do you have a rough guess at least when you think the mod may be ready? Next week? Next Month? Next year? I ask because I'm honestly waiting for this mod to hit before purchasing the game, and if Jaysin expects it's going to be awhile, I may start with another mod. I just didn't want to get heavily involved in a mod for a few days and then this one comes out lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
