So I've had the craving to do a Fire Pro tournament for the first time in a while, especially with NJPW's G1 Climax on the horizon. Figure this is the most appropriate thread for it since, technically, it really is a sim. I'm just booking matches and letting the CPU do its thing and watching it unfold.
So I'm gonna do an AEW version of the G1 but on steroids.
Traditionally it was a 20-man tournament with 2 blocks doing a Round Robin. 19 shows, 9 each per block. Each show would have a bunch of prelim tags featuring the next night's block participants, and then 5 block matches. Night 19 would be the finals.
Instead I'm doing a mammoth 40-man tourney across 4 blocks. Night 1 will have 5 A Block matches and 5 B Block matches, Night 2 will have 5 C Block and 5 D Block matches etc. Night 19 will be the semi-finals and night 20 the finals.
In reality it would be impossible to watch a tourney like this because it would be like 3 hours of wrestling a night for over a month. But in Fire Pro land where I can watch matches play out at 200x speed and blow through it? Hell yeah.
I'll write up the results for each night like it was an actual event recap or something. Dunno. Playing an actual booking sim where I make the decisions requires creative energy I do not have ATM
