Teh_Showtime Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 I think a sensible scenario is that the National School of Wrestling and a bunch of it’s grads breakaway from 21CW just leaving them with an old card and few options for the future. The talent they have stashed there could kickstart the entire continent and bolster a few abroad promotions as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blonde Bomber Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 I could see some sort of team up between 21CW and SWF. Trying to fight USPW maybe it’d be a CWA situation or maybe just an alliance that shares a world title? I’m also assuming everyone will have some form of their own networks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Temes1066 Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 I have always mildly disliked CZCW, but I really hate them in the Alternate 2018 Cornell-verse Mod. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

monrapi3 Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 I know i've replied here before but i wanna share the other company i hate. United States Pro Wrestling is also a company i hate because they poach talent meanwhile they can literally re-open the defunct USPW Training Camp or open a new one, and USPW's rise was also one of the major factors of DAVE's demise. I really love DAVE and USPW being one of the major factors of the company's demise instantly makes USPW a big ass PASS for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mecha Kaji Posted October 22, 2022 Share Posted October 22, 2022 Narratively: SNP. They have some great workers with massive potential so scoop them up if playing in UK or Europe but how does Carnie keep getting away with the fraud and sexual assault? Gameplay-wise: CWA. They are a fine promotion but they are the biggest offender when stealing talent, despite the USPW reportedly being that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackman Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 I'm not a fan of QAW as I cannot really imagine what the hell it's supposed to be. AAA used to be the "small WWE". I rarely played it but it's a clear vision. Other than that I believe all companies have their place. I liked NOTB, PGHW and CZCW and all games were fulfilling.

Will the egotistical booker accept he's over the hill and introduce new stars or will he let the ship sink all for the sake of pride? I guess if these companies were real, of course you'd hate them, but just from a gameplay viewpoint they create exciting mini narratives in every save even if you're not playing as them. I thought of another one; BHOTWG. They sign up so many talents at the start of every save and decimate the smaller Japanese companies all to bloat their roster with workers they under utilise... Same with USPW. I've toyed with creating a CVerse balance mod for the game -- that's a problem in a lot of mods though, not just the C-Verse. NJPW (and AJPW) did the same thing in my 1985 game.

In WMMA they actually can create women's divisions, but I somehow doubt it's a feature in TEW unless "assisted" by the player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAVEFAN95 Posted November 10, 2022 Share Posted November 10, 2022 There's two companies I dislike. USPW and CWA. I hate USPW cause their climb to the top was kinda bull. Use Sam Strong's influence to get to National then get money and buy everyone. That's so boring. At least they used to be a challenge to play with, now, they're just boring. Funnily enough, I actually like CWA's roster, name, graphics, all that, but the reason I hate them is because I adored CGC. They were fun finding ways to screw with the DeColts, building future DeColt villians. The Elite, Christian Price, Zeus, Trent Schaffer, Stevie Grayson, Gargantuan. So many characters I really, really love that bounced off of the DeColts and each other so well. Then Alex happened and for some reason NOTBPW said "Sure, let's merge with our competitors EVEN THOUGH WE ARE ABSOLUTELY DESTROYING THEM". Sigh. It makes no sense why The Stones thought a merge would be good, CGC was as good as dead anyway. I think they should have done the same thing in that Alex was squeezed out, Steve came back as owner and Jack as booker and NOTBPW v CGC could continue.

Yes I was in control, while my good lady was in control of 4L, but neither of us planned to concurrently raid QAW, it was the most logical in terms of free talent and business.

You don't say. What's wrong with Beast Bantem being a rookie monster for 14 years? Hard to update bios for 2649 workers though. Trim it down to half the size or less and it becomes much more dynamic. I know others would prefer even more workers, though. Considering the game has some pretty hardcore fans, maybe let a few select fans update the ignored bios/feds in the C Verse. On 10/14/2022 at 11:16 AM, AboardTheArk said: I hate 21CW. I hate how it essentially makes it impossible to grow a british scene, I hate that it took Koller from VWA, I hate that it's SWF UK but with the young guys being even more bland and terrible, and I hate that RAW did the SWF but with cultural differences trope so, so much better. Honestly, 21CW has no reason to exist but also no way it could ever go under or need to change. It could just cease to exist. It's a fictional verse. Roger Cage, Grandmaster Phunk and others have had their ages reduced from edition to edition. if it's a hinderance, just send it into the mirror universe with John Gordon. Anyway, I think the worst fed is CWA. It probably won't be so bad if/when a lot of the roster is phased out and replaced with fresh faces but it seems forced given the pre existing histories of the feds.

Matt_Black Posted November 14, 2022 Author Share Posted November 14, 2022 (edited) Another one- it seems like there are a lot of companies where the gimmick is "Just like ____, but with less money and pop".

Po Red5 Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 So I'm very new to this, only discovering TEW2020 about a month ago. I bought the game after trying the demo for a week or two and I've started a new Fed in the Cverse based in North America called Blackjack Wrestling, basically started with zero everything trying to go insignificant to relevant thing. I'm currently just getting to the end of year two and I've a wrestleworld deal and am currently happily small but growing month on month, slowly but surely. Gotta say, out of all the companies I most dislike at the moment it's got to be CZCW. What is the point of them? They are really irrelevant in my save, simply existing at the moment. Their roster is poor, their events always under perform and all they seem to do is borrow wrestlers from other more successful COTT promotions. What niche are they filling?

CQI13 Posted November 15, 2022 Share Posted November 15, 2022 The worst? The company I always create, hire mostly the same guys and then realize I don't have a coherent story to tell so I start again. This time around I have limited my roster, and am holding myself to only monthly events until I have a good core of young talents. This same company may yet appear on the "best companies" thread. 🙃 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are like the TNA / Impact of the C-Verse. There was a time when everyone thought they would be the next. Every great worker from the early 00's era went through there. At this point they are just a west coast indy for little high flyers to work at. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because they're Canadian I consider ACPW to be the true TNA of the C-Verse, even though (somehow) stars like Mimic and Jamie Atherton still haven't been picked up, Mainstream Hernandez and Diablo Duvak are both successful and not very old so still have time to be big stars in their respective companies.
