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. I put Gabriel and Evan Bourne in a team and Gabriel is slightly more over than Bourne is in my game.

I decided to try something different, and play the regular EWR 4.2 Scenario (August 2003), and thus far, I've got some interesting stuff going on.
The FBI has gone on a losing streak, and Chuck Palumbo couldn't take it. He's recently aligned himself with Cruiserweight Champion Mike Sanders, and his girlfriend Torrie Wilson. They've gone on to reform The Natural Born Thrillers, and they've extended olive branches to Sean O'Haire and Mark Jindrak in recent weeks.
Hardcore Holly has ranted about how he's growing rather board of regular matches, and thus, he instated the rule that every match he's in has to be hardcore rules. Minus one loss to John Cena, he is undefeated. He's recently been targeting Tommy Dreamer and The Sandman.
Another reformed stable, The 3 Live Kru, have made there presence known, attacking just about anybody that moves. I had some big plans for them, but they have been cut short even since Konnan checked into rehab the day before the Royal Rumble. He's been replaced for the time being by Jerry Lynn.
And I've turned Val Venis into Brodus Clay, practically, by having him focus more on his dance moves then the ladies. It hasn't gone as over as much as I've wanted it to be.
I'm heading toward Wrestlemaina, which is going to be headlined by:
Triple H vs Shawn Michaels
The Rock vs Brock Lesnar
And AJ Styles vs Randy Orton in a ladder match.
Those are my big three matches for the time being.

Doing the original WWE scenario with the game and found out that the best way for me to get 5 star matches is to have Eddie Guerrero and Ultimo Dragon in a Texas Death Match. It's worked all three times I've done it. In fact, the first of those occured the same Raw RIGHT BEFORE Jericho and Gus Richlen (yeah, I made myself) had a 5 star match of our own.

After a little while of not playing, I've booked up to Summerslam. Here's what my card ended up being, with a few other notes.
-Cody Rhodes won a pre-show 20 man battle royal. I mostly booked a bunch of random guys to see if I could get any ideas out of the results. Antonio Cesaro literally eliminated like half of them. I really need to find something else for him to do other than being one of Cody's lackeys (along with Wade Barrett). Right now, they've been been basically glorified jobbers ensuring that I can keep the IC title on Cody long enough to break Honky Tonk Man's record (still have like 3 months to go on that).
-Rey Mysterio d Sin Cara. So I brought back Sin Cara and pulled the trigger on the match between them so I could move on from there. But I don't know where to move onto. I'm keeping Rey out of the main event scene but everyone else doesn't seem to be legit competition for either man.
-Sami Callihan and Dean Ambrose aka the Street Rat Pack (Get it? Sammy and Dean?) are the new WWE Tag Team Champions. The story is this, Sami and Dean beat up Smackdown GM Mick Foley, allowing former GM Theodore Long to resume his duties. Foley believes Long is behind the whole thing but Long suspends Sami and Dean to save face. Meanwhile, The Power of Funk (Brodus Clay and Mason Ryan) from Raw and None More Black (Seth and Silas Black aka Seth Rollins and Ultramantis Black) from Smackdown win qualifying matches to face the champs Kof Kingston and Dolph Ziggler at Summerslam. But Long appears at Summerslam to announce that Sami and Dean's suspension is up and inserts them into the match at the last second due to them not having a chance to qualify. Sami and Dean end up winning the belts, mostly in a move to get the belts off of Kofi and Dolph and book them more creatively than I've been doing.
-King Truth and Kharma d Daniel Bryan and AJ. Basically a continuation in the Truth/Bryan feud. Kharma gets the pin on AJ, who had defeated her for the Divas title.
-Christian d Randy Orton in a Ladder Match to retain the World Title. Continuing that feud, booking Christian in his trademark match. I do plan on shaking the World title picture up a bit soon, because though I want Orton to win the feud and end up on top, I don't necessarily want him to end up with the title again.
-Triple H d The Miz in a Cage Match. This was a feud-ender and would determine who would run Raw. Triple H said that if Miz could beat him at Summerslam, he'd leave and Miz's group (including the likes of Kane, Mark Henry, Kevin Nash, David Otunga and John Laurinaitis) could run Raw how they saw fit. It looked as though Triple H would have no backup, seeing as the group beat down Shawn Michaels and Bret Hart (who I made into an on-screen Board of Directors stable along with Triple H) and got John Cena and Sheamus banned from Summerslam (to explain why I didn't have matches for them as I've been booking them against variations of Kane and Mark Henry for the past couple months). But Kevin Nash, who had been "fired" from the WWE and would be/has been arrested whenever he shows up again, interfered it backfired and cost Miz the match. The thing is, Kevin Nash is retiring at the end of the month and I'll probably turn him face for one final Clique reunion or something.
-CM Punk d Alberto Del Rio in a Submission Match to retain the WWE Title. Not the end of the feud yet, though this feud has been about as one-sided so far as the real-life Punk/Jericho feud since my in-game Punk/Jericho feud wasn't. Punk will probably hang on to the belt for the duration of the feud until I figure out the next contender.
Oh, and I let go of Aksana. I didn't have anything for her. I tried to include her in the Theodore Long/Mick Foley thing I have going (which I'm going to try to stretch out into a Survivor Series match for control of Smackdown) but she just dragged segments down.

For the first time in...ever, I'm gonna play as modern day WWE. I have some ideas but the roster is absolutely MASSIVE. So many guys to keep track of and that's not counting developmental guys. Let's see how long this lasts.

Are you guys all playing EWR or are some playing TEW? Some are EWR, Some are TEW. Feel free to discuss things that you are doing in either game.

I'm playing TEW 2010. Having some fun in a 2006 scenario with TNA. I've cheated a bit to get the promotion barely into national so I can offer written contracts, right now I'm trying to build up my main event scene to actually get my stars popularity into the 90s.
I'm building Bound for Glory to be Chris Jericho Vs. Christian Cage for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship. Right now Jericho is feuding with DDP and Christian is facing off with Jeff Jarrett.
Team Canada (Bobby Roode and Eric Young) are going strong and preparing to clash with AJ Styles and Christopher Daniels at the next PPV.
Bryan Danielson and Austin Aries are feuding in the midcard for the newly created TV Championship.

I received an interesting message while trying to get a new show for my promotion on the internet.
"Your request for negotiations with the internet have been rejected, as with the US market in such decline they are not looking to introduce new shows"
poor TNA, even the internet doesn't want them.

Let's see how long this lasts. It's pretty rough. In my game, having NXT as a third brand for new guys and others I don't know what to do with right away helps. But still, I almost wish people would get injured more so that it would shake things up and force me to get creative. So far, I haven't had anyone injured beyond a month or two.

Yeah, I think that NXT is really gonna be a lifesaver when I start integrating guys from developmental into the main roster. I get what you're saying about injuries. Sometimes, they can be really annoying but even then, they open the door for some really creative ideas.

So Rey Mysterio just suffered the dreaded 16 month knee injury in my game.
Is it wrong that I literally pointed at the screen and laughed?
OK, I have to add to this, as I've been having Incidents like crazy.
The day after Rey Rey goes down, I have to suspend Dean Ambrose (one-half of my tag champs). I only suspend him for a month, and since it's almost the end of the month, he's really only suspended for the next few days.
The day after that, I have TWO incidents. First, I have to suspend Steve Austin for no-showing a photo shoot. I rarely use him and basically keep him signed so that no one else takes him, so I suspend him for 3 months.
Then Sin Cara checks into rehab for alcoholism, just a few weeks after I decided to bring him back. Glad I pulled the trigger on that Rey Mysterio/Sin Cara match already.

Alright, end of the month time and I have a problem/complaint.
My Development system is all kinds of wonky. It seems like whenever I have to promote people, I have to promote them like 5-8 people at a time. That's way too many people to debut monthly. Take this month into account: I had to promote Rick Victor, Corey Graves, Raquel Diaz, Archibald Peck (who was ready when I signed him but I left him in Development for a month), Big E Langston, Donny Marlow and Kenneth Cameron. So I decided to just terminate the contracts of the last three after looking at their stats (Big E and Kenneth's contracts ended up being quite expensive but I've made a ton of money). I'd rather just cut the dead weight than have to debut seven people within the same month.
But since I have to promote so many people at a time, my Developmental roster is shrinking and I'm running out of decent enough names to fill it with. This month the only new signing I made was Beef Wellington. I just wish people would want to stay in Development longer.
Also, Mr. McMahon has announced his retirement in my game. I gotta think of some awesome way to send him out.

Chris Harris got himself injured three days before bound for glory where I was intending on letting America's Most Wanted win the tag titles.
Would it be wrong to start Beer Money in 2006?

Well it's not EWR, but I have played a lot of TEW 2010 lately.
Decided to hire Khali to use for commentary on my Anarchy Championship Wrestling game. I think it's fair to see he did a fairly bad job and he was fired the next day. Shame, I think Khali would be rather entertaining on commentary for a full show
