I'm trying to find something good in the years 80-85, There are no alternatives to this (as far as I know) unless you're willing to go up a few years and use Fleisch's 1992 mod. But this mod is pretty good IMO. Just not sure about the viability of a long term save since companies like WCW never form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was just wondering if there has been a recent update that people have put together of this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not my mods. I have Minnesota in the Mid West. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrom Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Enjoying this mod. Not sure if it's still being updated, but a couple of things I've noticed starting up a game as Championship Wrestling from Florida: The Missing Link should be a Heel, not a Face Dutch Mantel should be a Face, not a Heel Pez Whatley should be a Face, not a Heel Fidel Sierra was not working for CWF (not sure he ever did) Jesse Barr was still Florida Heavyweight Champion as 1985 started (the title got vacated after a DDQ match between him and Blair on January 1, as part of a feud. They met again January 2, 3, 5, 6 before Balir beat Barr to win the upheld title on January 8). Jay & Mark Youngblood should be set as a tag team Also, not sure if intentional, but CWF have no televison deal in-game, even though they had in real life. This could be because of gameplay reason (they're not big enough to get a TV deal as the game starts). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alvarasus Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 Well supposedly Fidel Sierra was The Saint in Florida according to Wrestlingdata. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrom Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 Right, that makes sense. (Should have a mask and another name/gimmick, then.) The Saint teamed up a lot with Jim Neidhart & Krusher Kruschev (which should be added as a regular tag team from around September/October 1984). I'd say the three men had a Stable going (though Neidhart was gone by February). Another thing I noticed is The Freebirds are set as Heels. I'm not too familiar with their work in Florida, but at least they started out as popular Babyfaces, helping out other Faces, fighting the Heel tag teams of the territory. I see them facing Blair, Graham etc. from mid-March, so I'm guessing they turned Heel before they left a month later. I'd say The Freebirds should be a Stable as well. Not sure if Skip Young was known as Skip Young at the time, or if they only called him Sweet Brown Sugar at the time (without the mask).

Hell I just found out Dutch Mantel was the Booker from the time Dusty Rhodes left, and Wahoo McDaniel took over. I always heard Michael Hayes had the book in January until Wahoo took over. Reason the Freebirds left was because Terry Gordy and Wahoo got into a disagreement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some bookers like to put themselves up top, and Mantel had a match against NWA World Heavyweight Champion Ric Flair in the beginning of 1985, while Wahoo had the same position later that year. Hayes seems a little young to be the booker in 1984-1985. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeroybrown Posted March 17, 2023 Author Share Posted March 17, 2023 On 9/25/2022 at 9:26 AM, Shockmaster said: is Leeroybrown still around and working on this mod? Risky Business 1985 is by far my favorite mod but I edit the origin database similar like outb0undflight did. I hope the mod could be further supported and updated. I mean it just needs little tweaks here or there to make it perfect. Sorry, life took over as always and just had no time!!!!! It's not really mine to ask for permission solely to update and amend so if anyone wants to take up the mantle please do! Just make sure to ask and credit all the people I credited in my original post I might get back into TEW again, I'm hoping though that PWS will pick up the torch as there are some glaring issues still with 2020. This is still my favourite era of wrestling up to around 92. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
