TCP1 Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 I’ve been struggling with inspiration for a diary I’m planning to write, but I think I’ve got the basic idea down. I’ve fiddled with the Cornellverse to make it much tougher for independent companies and I’ve pillaged most of the top in-ring talent and moved them to the big boys. So I’m ready for the challenge. But, I’m struggling with the company I plan to run. I want to make it a proper throwback to the early 1980s: sort of small scale and regional with old school wrestling flavour (very much like NYCW but not them). What I’m struggling with is the exact location and the company name. I think I’d like it to avoid any mention of the region (for potential expansion), but I’m really struggling for a name. Anyone got any ideas. Also Logos would be great too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Undertaker666 Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 While not location specific, they are area specific so i'm not sure if you'd want them or not but I did these two a while back: Tri-State Pro Wrestling (Tri-State) and Uncle Sam's Wrestling (Mid South) Alternatively you could come up with a name using the initials. Total Pro Wrestling, United States Wrestling etc. (i'm assuming you wanted an American promotion, as I do have a few for the UK too) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodsmeister Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 Glory Pro Wrestling - they do refer to the 80s as the glory years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCP1 Posted September 5, 2020 Author Share Posted September 5, 2020 That Uncle SAM’s one is wonderful. But sadly not quite what I’m going for. Glory Pro Wrestling is also a great suggestion. I’ve just discovered a promotion called NWA Power which is almost exactly the sort of look and feel (probably a bit too polished for my starter fed though. Am I right in thinking there isn’t an NWA equivalent in the Cornellverse? An overseeing group in the 70/80s which tied all the territories together before SWF came along?

shamelessposer Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 The COTT is the closest the Cornellverse has to an NWA. When I've played saves like the one you're suggesting I've signed on with the COTT day one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCP1 Posted September 5, 2020 Author Share Posted September 5, 2020 Now I’m wondering if there are any created logos and banners for Texas themed wrestling companies. I had one before but I’ve lost it. Thinking like a WCCE or a hokey wrasslin style. Lone Star maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's another I did a while back for "Texas Wrestling Association". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
