WWF 1996 - Rewriting history


Recommended Posts

After getting my hands on TEW 2020, I've decided to start my first dynasty. I'll take the WWF in 1996. The Monday Night Wars is already on and WCW is winning it with the Nitro. The save starts in August 1996 (week 1).

 

Goals for 1996:

1. Fully implement the Attitude Era.

2. Make RAW go live with 2 hours.

3. Use Shotgun Saturday Night as developmental show.

4. Make the Tag Team Division stronger.

5. Add and develop a strong Women Division.

6. Add and develop a strong Cruiserweight Division.

 

Champions:

WWF Champion: Shawn Michaels

Intercontinental Champion: Vacant

WWF World Tag Team Champions: The Smokin' Gunns

 

Next PPV's:

August: SummerSlam

September: TBD

October: TBD

November: Survivor Series

December: TBD
