I think angles and finishes are really useful, If they succed they substantially improve your match ratings. Don't sleep on character ideas. They make managing momentum so much easier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWorldIsOurs13 Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 What makes the difference for somebody to be considered a Next Big Thing or a Hot Prospect? I see that when someone reaches 29 they seem to not be on the next big thing list anymore. Are there any other factors that influence this? Sorry if my question might be worded weird.

dunc93 Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 i have what is probably a stupid question. In the menu to look for talent to sign, you can select the role that someone can do (wrestler, referee etc), but what is the Broadcaster role that is in there? I assume its nothing to do with commentary as there is colour and play by play, Not sure what it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NBT is basically telling you who the potential reach somewhat superstar popularity. Hot prospects is referring to how good someone will be in the ring. I think it still true after 29 as well they just won't pop up on the list. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. Old Forum post I use to reference this. It's old but I think it still relevant.

Character ideas improve morale and/or momentum if succesful. I've had to intentionally limit my use of character ideas as they can make managing momentum pretty easy. A successful one can take someone from chilly straight to warm. Unsuccessful ones can reduce momentum, but you can just use the risky ones on jobbers and guys on the way down. If they succeed great. If not you were probably not worried about the guy anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catropis84 Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 Is segment penalized for physical condition something that never goes away thru their career? I thought any injuries/ physical decline is already accounted for in their individual ratings so why does it have a pretty heavy effect on segment rating? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks So I think the physical condition penalty is based on wear and tear as defined in section 19.7 of the handbook. It is the penalty based on the level of battering the wrestler has taken in their career rather than age related decline or specific injuries. If you look at the skills page it is at the top of the column next to the silhouette. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not only can you manage momentum super easily with it, it can also help you whenever somebody is in low morale for any reason. Like this is the easiest version than ever to ignore "unhappy with booking". You just let them lose, and pop some character ideas to make their morale go back up to at least neutral again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be a bit slow with it if you want bury their Pop before they refuse to work. Though, if you want them to leave without pay bury their ass.

benjirino Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 Sod it, gave him 3 months paid time off to give him time to cool off. Not really someone I want to lose (Flint Slater), but if his morale isn't much better when he returns then I'm just going to job him like a mofo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple days later she turned in her notice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you know what controls who gets it? I get ones that can be used on anyone but, a lot of the time I get it for Cameron Vessey and Skip Beau. I don't mind but I already book them well so why use them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmiticomark Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 Could be "Creative" or "Wrestling In Blood" attributes each has. The ratio is interesting... Aldous Blackfriar generated a lot of creative ideas in booking meetings in a previous save and he has a "Creative" attribute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmiticomark Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 Is there any way to make the old European by-rounds style judged match? Like that belly-up promotion irl from the 90's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpha2117 Posted August 16 Share Posted August 16 Silly question but can Rainbow Entertainment do Eye Candy matches with people other than Females? Does Adult Risque get bonuses for Eye Candy matches? Or is just that it doesn't get penalised? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure it's random on whether it lands on "anyone can use this" or "specific character only". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
