mikeforgette Posted May 7, 2020 Share Posted May 7, 2020 Is there any kind of benefit of having a worker debut by interfering in main event match? Would game recognize it's a debut and thus exciting the fans and giving better rating? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Lyrium Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Only if the worker interfering would make it part of a storyline that it otherwise wouldn't count as part of. If the storyline is highly rated, then the debuting worker would give a boost to the match by way of the storyline involvement. Edit: After re-reading that mess of a sentence, I feel it needs an example. Let's say The Rock and Austin are in a storyline rated at 98, and the debuting Y2J is also in the storyline but hasn't appeared yet (obviously, hence "debuting"). A Rock vs. Kurt Angle main event wouldn't affect the storyline, but if Y2J debuted by interfering in the match, now the match would count as part of the storyline and get a boost from the storyline's high rating. If there are no storylines involved (or if the match is already part of a storyline without the interference) I don't think the worker would add much, if anything, to a match purely by the act of interfering though, even if it was his debut. You'd be better off combining the interference with an angle afterwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeforgette Posted May 8, 2020 Author Share Posted May 8, 2020 I think I may have worded it badly. I'm more asking if the game is smart enough to recognize interference in a match as a debut? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any appearance from a debuting worker counts as them debuting. Even if it is in the pre or post-show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d12345 Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 The benefit isn't a boost to the segment rating (unless the worker is already over before their debut). The benefit is more a boost to the worker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then, yes. They wouldn't necessarily get a better gimmick rating or momentum or anything just from debuting in the main event though.
