Playing in a Aug 2011 WWE game and while not a lot of things of large interest on screen has happened, Santino Marella almost got himself fired due to two fights in one night. In my mailbox the next day after the Superstars/Raw taping, were notices that he had gotten into a fight with both Zack Ryder and Ted DiBiase Jr...
I suspended him for one week instantly and warned the others about fighting backstage.

Nothing to do with me but going through the EWR forum, they have a section dedicated to people writing out diaries as if they were shows with varying amount of detail. Found one in particular that's really good that takes place from 8th January onwards where Jeff Hardy, Hogan, Sting and Bischoff all leave and the after effects of that: www.ewbattleground.com/forum/index.php?showtopic=87181Have to sign up to the forum to read and comment but this, and various other diaries on the forum are really good reads. I frequent "The Dome" quite a bit and yeah, this is a damn good diary. There's lots of good stuff over there. There's even a diary forum for this forum: ewrwc.proboards.com/index.cgi

There's even a diary forum for this forum: ewrwc.proboards.com/index.cgiMy personal favourites from The Dome archives are LAW, Golden Boy and FUSE... some of the booking in LAW is better than most stuff we see on TV. Anyway, I've been running TNA for a few months and Bully Ray announced his retirement in 3 months. So I turned him face and had him feud with a debuting Dean Ambrose. I was going to give them three matches on three PPVs, with Ambrose winning the first, Ray the second, and Ambrose winning the final match with a huge spot. After their first PPV match, Bully Ray just goes and retires straight away ruining a months build. So, I feed D'von to Ambrose as a way of gaining petty revenge against a digital Bully Ray.

FUSE is nothing short of amazing and LAW is pretty great. Actually haven't read Golden Boy Wrestling yet but I've heard good things.

I have never heard of this stuff before and it sounds awesome. I didn't want to read thru 26 pages but I downloaded EWR 4.2 and TEW 2005 and the add on packs and will give at least one fo them a try this week as I'm on holidays.

Two of the best scenarios for 2005 are Death of the Territories, which is based on the rise of WWF and JCP starting in 1983. It's based off of it and needs a few slight tweaks to be 100% accurate. The second is iDomination 08, where the WWF failed completely at Wrestlemania I and the NWA is now the national powerhouse. You play as one of the NWA promotions (or an idependent promotion like AWA). That said, the nature of the game or any others makes something like the NWA impossible to replicate.

I got back into it recently. It's a May 2012 game so it's new.
-I feel like I'm playing a UFC simulation game. 8 people are injured, including one half of my tag team champions. Kassius Ohno, Cody Rhodes, Beth Phoenix, David Otunga, Jey Uso, Zack Ryder, Kenneth Cameron and Ricardo Rodriquez. Thankfully, Ohno is only injured for one month so I can defend the title next month so the value of it doesn't go down anymore.

I fired up 2005 but it had all these weird names in it. I guess you have to use one of the download patches to get real wrestlers? Similar to the different updates for EWR? I did the EWR ones no problem.

Right, downloaded EWR, and now I'm trying to kill WWE. I signed Buff Bagwell and gave him all the belts. Then I fired all my roster apart from him, Shane Douglas, Chyna, Scott Steiner and a bunch of jobbers. My booker is Laughing Larry, who has 10 talent. All my shows so far have been rated below -30.

Sorry for the questions but I'm such a noob at this. Where do I find the different storylines that you suggested? Are they on that G Network website?

Here's my latest PPV in my scenario (a startup fed thrown into a recent environment (2010), with alot of money to burn, and an absolutely miserable business environment):
MWF: The Show Before the Really Big Show!
US Bank Arena (Cincinnati) 12,540 attendance 714,527 PPV Buys (By far, a record, the UK/Euro additions to my PPV lineup paid off) PPV Grade: A+
Dark Matches:
London and Kendrick defeat Dudley Boys (B): Cincy crowd was not too happy with my dark matches. Dudleys are being deemphasized.
MWF Midcard Champion Wade Barrett defeats Cody Rhodes (B): Ditto
Main Show:
Chris Hero and Mr. Anderson fight to a DCO: (A+) The second Hero showed up, everything changed. LOL. Anderson has gotten over with the crowd greatly lately, so I protected him here when originally he was going to job. Hero has so much momentum and popularity gain it doesn't matter anyway.
Abyss defeats Sonjay Dutt by pinfall: (A+) Just something for them to do. This killed Dutt dead, though.
Trish Stratus defeats MWF Womens Champion Mellissa by pinfall, to become new champion: (B+) This feud had gone on so long that I had to shit or get off the pot. It'll go in a slightly different direction from here.
Bryan Danielson defeats William Regal by submission: (A) Blowoff of Bryan's feud with Barrett, Regal cost him the midcard title. Danielson now goes up a level, we'll see what happens.
Beer Money Inc defeats MWF Tag Team Champions Chavito via pinfall to become new champions: (A) Chavito's transitional reign is over, but the feud is not. Mainly because the tag team booking has kinda been lacking.
Christopher Daniels defeats Santino by pinfall: (A) Daniels will move on to feud with Danielson in order to keep both busy. If it works, (and it started well on my next A show), it could go on for months. I really would like a never-ending bloodfeud, and neither of these guys are ready (and Daniels is just too old) to move up the card.
MWF Super Cruiser Champion Alberto Del Rio defeated Jay Lethal by pinfall: (A) Del Rio's dominance continues, but on the next A show, he confronted and beat down Mick Foley, will there be repercussions from that? What is the future of the Super Cruiser program in the first place?
MWF US Champion Jeff Hardy defeated Lucifer by pinfall after botched interference from Abyss: (A) Lucifer will not be happy with this. My two biggest monsters at odds before my biggest pay per view of the year? Shocking development.
Kurt Angle defeated Samoa Joe via pinfall to become #1 contender for the MWF Universal Championship: (A+) This was the finals of an 8 man tournament to determine the #1 contender for the anniversary mega-PPV.
MWF Universal Champion Jack Swagger defeated RVD in a Cage Match via escaping the cage: (A+) Eric Bischoff climbed up the cage to distract RVD long enough for Swagger to sneak out the door to pick up the victory, where he was instantly attacked by Kurt Angle, who hung around at the commentary table to watch this one. Now Angle will have an opportunity for revenge against the man who took his title and injured him. RVD will slink back to the lockeroom after actually sorta losing a feud.
The next show should be fairly huge and better set the best numbers yet, especially since it's in my home territory of Tri-State, which has recently climbed up to A in overness.

From time to time, I am working on a 1986 scenario, which was actually started and abandoned by someone else several years ago. I unfortunately can't remember who. The good thing is that they gathered a lot of info on Mexican and Japanese wrestling that I would have been completely unaware of.
If I ever manage to finish it, I'll post it here.

I was having a lot of trouble decising on what I wanted to do but after a few tries I settled on the Big 3 scenario and picked ECW. I hired a bunch of guys: Sabin, Hero, Roddy Strong, Nigel, Chris Daniels, Samoa Joe, Aries, Danielson, Punk, Cabana and Randy Orton.
Still getting the hang of this but all the titles were vacant so I set up a feud where RVD became champ by beating Shane Douglas and now going on to feud with Orton. We'll see how this goes but pretty fun so far.

Running a PWG game, and in six months I managed to go National (currently at 40), get two TV shows, make several stars (Kyle O'Reilly at 98 overall is my proudest accomplishment), and create brands (NWA and PWG, after I didn't have the heart to retire the NWA Title).
I may rename the promotion to NWA: Guerilla Warfare, but right now it's just PWG/NWA. Also, Edge is a free agent, and Christian's contract with WWE is running out. My hopes are on the rise...

So i'm trying to push justin gabriel anyone have any ideas on how to do this On EWR? He's in the 80s with me. First I made a TV title and put it on him, by defending it a lot he started to get over. Her puts on very good matches with McIntyre and Daniel Bryan. I'd imagine you'd get the same out of Sin Cara, Bourne, Mysterio, etc. I'd get him a manager too because he doesn't have much charisma.
