Jesus, that is some mod you must have. lol

I like Barrett actually having momentum. Also, Wyatt vs Orton has been something I've been calling for for a while. Still hate Owens losing clean multiple times against Balor while feuding with Cena. The "refusing to tap out and passing out" option is a much better way to get the title off of him. Instantly sets up a potentially hot feud with Joe if/when you move him to the main roster too by leaving that doubt about who is the better man.

Yeah, I'm fine with Owens losing but I want to save that first legitimate "losing 1-2-3" moment for the right time.

I'm using the EW Battleground mod for May 2015, which is generally regarded as the best mod out there as they come out with a new one every month.

EWR is funny in that you'll get some surprises on who gels. Generally it's based on similar ratings...I knew Joe/Owens would be an awesome match for that reason. Paige/Nikki and Show/Ryback are not matches I ever would have run on my own but since I had to do them at MITB to stay true to the real card, and I was able to find that they have passable chemistry in the game.

I was absolutely floored with Swagger/Miz. Comparing their ratings none of them are stellar at any one thing (save Swagger having a higher than average technical side) but because their overall numbers are so similar apparently it makes them have the ability to really put together something good. Neville/Barrett was even more of a shocker. Neville's top rating is speed (93) but Barrett's is only 20. No idea how on earth the game decided they'd work well together. I saw something similar happen with a Harper/Rowan vs. Lucha Dragons match I had booked on television. I guess maybe brawl-heavy vs. speed-heavy works? I kinda like the randomness to it as it encourages me to go outside the box and book guys together that I normally wouldn't based on ratings.

Speaking of Barrett...yeah, I love the guy so I'm gonna push him. Sadly I'm not sure I really have anything for SummerSlam for him just because I've got a really packed card coming up, but he should get a lot more exposure once I formally split the rosters.

I like Midajah of all people having an actual character in this instead of her real life role which pretty much amounted to "LOOK AT MY BOOBS".

"Look at my boobs" is the only reason I can actually get by with having her speak since that gets factored into her entertainment rating. lol

She's necessary in the story I'm trying to create though and she's not killing segments so it's cool.

EWR is free, not sure about TEW.

The latest EWR can be downloaded here: http://www.ewwarehouse.info/mod-index/ew-mod-index/

Game was created way back in 2003, so you'll need to download a new data pack. I usually get them off of www.ewbattleground.com as there's a new one uploaded each month.

Good show there. I find myself being interested in some characters I didn't really care about in WCW. Dustin Rhodes was bland and boring as all hell in WCW but here he actually comes across as badass especially with his story being a believable one.

Konnan is quickly becoming one of the best heels in the company, which is cool to think about since he got stuck in such a boring routine in WCW where he'd just do the same speech to pop the crowd every week while doing nothing new or interesting. He was like the Road Dogg of WCW.

Hah, pretty hilarious seeing Road Dogg show up after my comments. Makes sense to bring him in really, seems exactly like the type of person WCW would have brought in had they continued on into the summer of 2001.

Really like the twist with DDP. I figure something had to give between them and one of them would have needed to turn in order to keep the feud going past one show.

WORLD WAR 3 I've always been a battle royal mark so I loved World War 3 despite it being completely impossible to tell what is going on.

Yeah. That Road Dogg comment was pretty crazy. Signed him like a week before you randomly brought him up. As for DDP, I wanted to do a more "cerebral" turn as opposed to just having him attack. Seems like there's more emotion involved in just having him abandon him like that.

Also looking forward to booking a 60 man battle royal and the build to it more than I probably should be. lol

When you take over a company, it takes a while to build up stars and get the company to look like you want it to. I'm thinking it's gonna take about 2 years game time. Makes it tough to stick with.

Yep, I could never have the patience for TEW. I've booked what I thought were great shows on there only for it to go over like a fart in church.

At least in EWR it's fairly easy to elevate guys, especially with the feuds feature. Although running 3 shows I can't really do any "Major" feuds as they lose steam if not mentioned enough. Minor feuds work well, though.

I think that's what I like though. It's more realistic. Kinda hated how you could get Doink the Clown as over as The Rock in a few months with EWR. Most od the guys are stagnant in my current game which is realistic for a company that's recovering from the brink of bankruptcy and at an all-time low in popularity. Dustin Rhodes and Shane Douglas have both gone up about 4 points in popularity in the past few months and I'm more than happy with that.

I still have quite a bit of TV to book before I get there but, assuming no injuries or suspensions pop up here's what I've got mapped out for SummerSlam:

Triple H vs. Rollins (if Rollins wins, The Authority is out of power for good)
This isn't the main event but it was the focal part of the Raw right after Battleground. 2 PPVs in a row Rollins had a great showing and was insistent he could win on his own only for Triple H to insist on Authority involvement. Triple H finally had Rollins kicked out of the now dwindling group and Rollins' face turn was now complete. A match is set and after a few weeks Vince resurfaces to tell Triple H that his leadership of Raw and SD is on the line. BUT FOR REALSIES THIS TIME! No take-backs like Survivor Series. Obviously this is the angle I'm using to justify bringing back the brand split soon.

Kane vs. Ambrose (if Ambrose wins, Kane is fired as Director of Operations)
Sort of an extension of the other match. But Kane is looking somewhat relevant after his win over Orton and Ambrose still has issues with The Authority. Pretty much just sticking these guys together because it should be a good brawl and another nice way to wrap up The Authority angle for good. I envisioned Rollins and Ambrose being unwittingly forced to team up a few times in the build (yes WWE, you can actually have two faces team up and play off that they hate each other rather than them automatically forgiving each other for a year's long blood feud).

World Heavyweight Title: Reigns vs. Lesnar
The real main event. Reigns, as mentioned, is a badass heel now. Bragged about defeating his two face former Shield brothers and got heat for it. Says he can take on all comers. Cue the reinstatement of Lesnar, still owed a rematch for the World Title since WM...and a huge locker room emptying brawl ensued. I'm normally against the idea of a WM main event being immediately rehashed at SummerSlam, but it makes sense here and has a different dynamic with heel Reigns.

US Title: Cena vs. Owens
The logical conclusion to their feud, which to this point has seen Owens win twice (once by countout) and put Cena out of commission for a while. Cena made his return at the last PPV and played a part in Owens dropping the NXT Title. This rivalry got personal with Owens reminding the fans that he had supposedly ended Cena's career every week, and now things will come to a head with the US Title on the line.

Wyatt vs. Orton
Too lazy to do any detailed writeups but this one was basically confirmed based on what happened at Battleground. Wyatt just being a creep as usual in the build. Would love to see this feud in real life.

IC Title: Ryback vs. Sheamus
Another obvious match based on what happened at Battleground.

Ziggler vs. Rusev
One of the few feuds I'm shamelessly borrowing from real life.

Tag Titles: New Day issue an Open Challenge
I'm probably overdoing it with Open Challenges but whatever, I already have the team planned out and I think it'd be a cool moment if what I have planned were to happen in real life.

Divas Title: Paige vs. Nikki vs. Brie
Likely the pre-show match. Just total filler and unimaginative booking on my part, admittedly. Can't wait to call up some gals from NXT once I have the draft and more structure to my shows.

Felt bad not having room for Barrett on the show at the moment given I'm trying to push him, but he'll be fine.

Your SummerSlam card I'm pretty sure is gonna be miles better than what they end up going with, by the way. I'd have no problem with Reigns vs Lesnar happening again with the new dynamic. It's not like it's the same tired, worn-out "rematch for the sake of having a rematch" thing they usually do. It fits in with the story.

Anyone here interested in doing an EWR split game? It's where we each take a brand and draft our own rosters and play the same set of data, sending it to the other person once you've booked your show.

So TEW 2016 has been announced. Just looked through the new features and one of them is an actual auto-book ingoption ala EWR. I know the time consuming booking is one of the main gripes about TEW.

I actually just played 2016 a few weeks ago. Not sure about 2020. Nothing I read in the developers journal really put it over the top for me.

I don't think I ever tried 2016 as I remember feeling overwhelmed with TEW when it first came out.

But I'd be down to try this. Much as I love EWR, I do get bored fast in part because of the limitations.

Of course this contradicts things I said on this very page (albeit from 4 years ago and now I'm jonesing to final dive back in, lol)

Sad I only booked my 2015 game for about two months before I once again forgot about it, funny how I brought up bringing back the roster split a year before it actually happened.

Also booking all three members of the Shield to hold the title on the same night at MITB in 2015 and that also happened a year later at MITB, just with the roles switched.

I might get around to posting my roster later if I remember. It's safe to say a lot has happened in the last few years. Plus I just barely learned how to get people to become managers.

Haha, just realizing it's been over 5 years since I've run a game I was posting here. I change my mind so rapidly.

Shame too as I really think some of the ideas would've been great to keep up with, like running NXT in 2002 with that loaded development class.

With me not watching any wrestling for almost five years straight and being so far into the future that anything in the present doesn't exist in my universe, it's nice to have a game essentially untainted by anything WWE.

In a move that is certain proof that this pandemic is sucking all of the joy out of my life, here is my current roster and their status as of WrestleMania 56 in March of 2040. First a summary of the most recent events. Starting in August of the previous year, the roster was split three ways amongst the shows, each with their own authority figure with the goal of producing the best show culminating in a 4-on-4 match at WrestleMania between the two top shows to determine who remains in charge. Darren Caine, who was in charge of Raw, lost out and was fired, thus leaving Vanessa (Superstars) and Lisa Benton (SmackDown!) to battle it out via proxy. Benton's team won. There will be more details in the roster list. Speaking of which:

Aaron Ramsey: Heel manager. Until about a month ago he was still a cruiserweight competitor but getting up there in years. Charismatic though so I decided to make the move to get him to be the mouthpiece for some of the stiffs.

Adrian Gallagher: Face. One half of the team The British Infection. Managed by Fantasee

Aphrodite: Face manager. Just like Aaron Ramsey, getting up there in years but great on the mic so I turned her.

Arianna: Heel. One of the top heel female stars I have.

Azazel: Monster heel, not even four months in. Coming off a loss for his team at WrestleMania, managed by Vivian Merrick

Beckie Demira: Face. I haven't had her do anything of note. On the post-WM chopping block

Ben Dillinger: Face. One half of the top face tag team, the Dillingers. Coming off an unsuccessful challenge to the tag team titles at WrestleMania. 4-time tag team champion

Billie Padgett: Female monster heel. Former leader of the Brooklyn Sisterhood stable. Getting up there in years but I think I've got a feud for her. Multiple time Women's champion

Blaine Bellamey: Face. One half of the pretty boy tag team, the Wyldhearts. Coming off a loss in an 8-man tag at WrestleMania. Feuding with The Agents of Change.

Bobbi Jo: Female heel lackey to Hannah McCormick,

Bobby Whitlock: Face. One half of the Can-Am Connection. 2-time tag team champion. Coming off a win in a 6-man tag at WM. On the post-WM chopping block.

Bonnie Beckham: Heel. Haven't really done anything of note with her. On the post-WM chopping block.

Brandon Reigns: Face. One the rise, recent Money in the Bank winner at WM. 3-time Intercontinental Champion. Starting an angle involving being mentored by another veteran I'll be phasing out of active competition.

Brody Lee: Heel. One half of the Southern Gentleman.

Brooke: Heel manager. Same story as Aphrodite.

Butch Fleming: Top heel in the company. Currently serving a one year suspension for an anti-BLM tweet ( ). 3-time Unified World champion. Former leader of the City Slickers stable. Back-to-back King of the Ring winner.

Some of these names are a blast in the past, I immediately remembered Ian Moore for example. But also the surnames of many of the 2nd generation stars. When you're far enough into the future that your game-generated training camp recruits' kids are now in the business!!! Excellent.

That reminds me, I didn't even post my developmental and training camp guys. Here's a fun game: Try guessing which names were game-generated and which I assigned.

One-year suspension for retweeting Candace Owens.

1) He's lucky that he got off that easy.
2) Candace Owens is still a thing in 2040? Fuuuuuuck!

Kudos to you for trying to run three brands. I always had a hard time trying to run Raw, NXT, and SmackDown concurrently. In part because I also wanted to run a Superstars-esque B show since there was such a bloated roster and I'd have no way to feature the low card talent and build their overness on the main shows.

A little EWR hack I exploited in the later versions which allow anyone to be converted to managers - I'd move the upper midcard/main event guys to managers because that way they don't get pissed if they are only appearing on 1 of your promotions' 4 shows.

Modern day AEW might be totally EWR-friendly though. You have the main show Dynamite, and secondary show Dark. They routinely run 10+ match cards on Dark so you can just book wall to wall matches and use everyone that didn't work Dynamite that week. Might have to play around with it.

It was driving me crazy not being able to get charismatic, older wrestlers to become managers because I was slowly losing the few that I had. It wasn't until, in a rage, I offered one of the candidates a significant pay bump that I discovered that was the way to do it. Now I don't have to immediately dismiss a new talent just because they can't talk for shit. Wish I'd known that years ago.

And, yes, I modeled my Faith Connors after this Faith Connors....




Even gave her the Daredevil gimmick. I can't really name anyone who ever integrated parkour into their wrestling style. I mean, Jeff Hardy tried sometimes but, you know, the drugs were like, "LOL".

Well, yeah, but has he brought down a corrupt police force and leaped off a building onto a helicopter?

Lol when I first saw the roster write up I forgot to ask if Brody Lee was the same guy as Brodie Lee/Luke Harper and that it would be crazy to see this bearded wild man still wrestling at 60 years old.

And then the world took him from us in real life

Yeah, no, it's definitely not the same dude. There are virtually zero traces of modern era WWE left in my game as far as workers are concerned. I think the last one was Miz but I'm pretty sure I'm wrong.
