d12345 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 I was just wondering if there were any canon Howard Finkle, Michael Buffer, or Justin Roberts like ring announcers in the canon C-Verse history? I don't recall ever reading anything about anyone in that role but I could be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrokenCycle Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 No I don't think so. The game doesn't really simulate that anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neslo024 Posted February 12, 2022 Share Posted February 12, 2022 You could find a manager or broadcaster with good mic skills and just run a freestyle angle with them rated on microphone. It would achieve what you're looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d12345 Posted February 13, 2022 Author Share Posted February 13, 2022 Or onscreen because he's introducing them before a match so they are on screen. A great idea to simulate ring announcers. I guess the best fit would be on screen personality for role (unless they do something else too). These are good ideas. I guess I was just seeing if any of the C-verse personalities had a note about ring announcing ever, before I just grab someone with high mic skills and convert them in my game. I'm not saying I agree or disagree, just that in the game, the role doesn't exist. Cool thanks for confirming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Historian Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 There are some people whose bios mention, I think. I’m pretty sure Paul Huntington’s in SWF mentions he started out doing everything as a teenager like ring announcing — but I don’t have the game in front of me and could be remembering wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m pretty sure Paul Huntington’s in SWF mentions he started out doing everything as a teenager like ring announcing — but I don’t have the game in front of me and could be remembering wrong I totally forgot about the in-game search feature for words in bios. Thanks! For anyone curious I found Franklin Fumier has a background in ring announcing and in EX2010 has Tanosuke Joshuyo. I should have done this first lol.
