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? depends if you want to be historically accurate or not

Alright, just booked Night of Champions. And in keeping true with the theme, EVERY belt was defended. -Heath Slater d Johnny Curtis to win the NXT Title in the pre-show match. Unfortunately, Curtis is nowhere near as over as I'd like him to be, so I switched the belt to Slater who is now probably the biggest heel on NXT, along with his bodyguard Conor O'Brian. -Drew McIntyre d Dolph Ziggler to retain the US Title. Drew and Swagger had a mini-feud where Drew won the US title from him and Swagger couldn't beat him again. Swagger wanted the shot at Night of Champions but had to fight against the other members of the Show Offs: Dolph Ziggler, Kofi Kingston and David Otunga. Dolph won the shot instead. -AJ retains the Divas Title in a 10 Diva Battle Royal. Order of Elimination: Kelly Kelly, Sofia Cortez, Kaitlyn, Eve, Beth Phoenix, Natalya, Maxine, Kharma, Layla. Bad match. -The Street Rat Pack (Sami Callihan and Dean Ambrose) vs Kane and Mark Henry for the WWE Tag Titles goes to a Double DQ due to excessive brawling and not following the rules. Both teams are heel, BTW. -Cody Rhodes retains the Intercontinental title against William Regal. Regal had to go through the rest of High Society (Wade Barrett and Antonio Cesaro) in a gauntlet to earn the shot and was close to winning until Ezekiel Jackson, who had been in NXT for a while, helped Cody win. Zeke will be the newest addition to High Society. -John Cena chases The Miz off from an in-ring promo. I'm thinking The Miz vs CM Punk will be my next feud for the WWE title. -King Truth wins the World Title in a 4-Way Elimination Match against Daniel Bryan, Randy Orton and Christian. Truth has been pretty over in my game thus far so we'll see what happens. Also, the Truth/Bryan feud becomes a title feud and I'll get to end Christian/Orton without giving Orton the title. -CM Punk d Alberto Del Rio to retain the WWE Title with Ricardo Rodriguez as the Special Guest Referee. Del Rio wanted one more shot as long as Ricardo was the ref. Punk agreed and brought in Bill Alfonso (who is retiring this month) to train Ricardo to "call it right down the middle". After having enough abuse, Ricardo gave Del Rio a fast count. I'm turning Ricardo face and gonna see if he can go on his own. Also, this feud is over and Punk is now at 100 Overness. -Mr. McMahon comes out to fire Triple H from his authority position. I had McMahon come back since he's retiring this month. So far, he's fired Bret Hart from his Board of Directors position and now Triple H. I'm not sure where I'm going with this but I'm half tempted to just have Triple H remind Vince that he still holds no power and Vince is firing everybody because his old-man senility makes him think he's still in charge. Also, I let go of the Big Show. His matches have been getting bad numbers and when I found his morale was low, I just let him go instead of Arsenic'ing it back up.

Baron von Raschke is doing quite well with his pimp gimmick.

I had Hornswoggle "injured" when Sami Callihan attacked him and he recently came back, dressed up like Sami and Dean to mock them. So basically Hornswoggle's gonna be like a Hot Topic spokesperson or something.

In a WCW 2000 game, I gave Eric Bischoff a paperboy gimmick, for no reason besides I got a mental picture of Easy E dressed like a kid with a backward cap, riding a bike down the ramp and tossing out magazines, and it hit me as funny at the time. I also gave Stevie Ray a detective gimmick and renamed him Detective Fruitbooty. Every week, he would have an interview segment, interrogating someone who always ended up kicking his ass. I'm pretty sure I did something with Vince Russo too, but I can't remember what it was.

I just held Bound For Glory in my TNA game. James Storm finally beat Bobby Roode for the TNA championship in a Hell In A Cell. Roode took a sick bump for the finish and now has a neck injury and is out for eight months. I had him leading a stable "Kingdom", featuring Magnus, Flair, Velvet Sky and Shad Gaspard & JTG (doing a reformed anti-Cryme Time gimmick), so now I'm planning on putting Magnus in a program with James Storm.
I'm close to catching up with WWE in terms of PI, which means soon I'll be "At War" with them, but I can see myself getting crushed by their stacked roster.

I legit lol'd at Detective Fruitbooty and now am mad that WCW didn't survive past 2000 because I'm pretty sure that would've actually happened.

Just started a new game and am doing July 2012 first so I can have MITB champions crowned
Current matchups look like this
WWE MITB: Dolph Ziggler, Chris Jericho, Kane, Tensai, Brutus Magnus, Eddie Marquez (Eddie Kingston), Kofi Kingston, AJ Styles, Samoa Joe and Shane Helms
World Heavyweight Championship MITB: Drew McIntyre, Sin Cara, Averno, Mark Henry, Wade Barrett, Zack Ryder, Christian, Damien Sandow, Randy Orton and Austin Aries
Not entirely sure who I am going with for each case though
On the RAW (WWE) side, Helms, Magnus, Styles, Joe and Marquez just debuted (in their qualifying matches) but I would not be opposed to one of them maybe winning the case. It would start them up big. I am ruling out Kane and Jericho definitely though. Marquez won the US title in his debut as well so I will rule him out.
Tensai, Ziggler, Magnus or Styles are my front runners.
On the Smackdown (WHC) side, Averno started a feud with Sin Cara on his debut (attacking Cara after he qualified). So I am ruling out both of them. Christian, Orton and Henry all out too for already having runs with the title. Ryder isn't "there" yet in my opinion.
Wade Barrett and Austin Aries seem to be the front runners with McIntyre close behind. But if Magnus were to win on RAW, I would likely go with Sandow on Smackdown because Magnus and Barrett or McIntyre all winning would seem too pro European (odd theory I know) and Aries just debuted as well.

Okay, this has made me giggle for about the last 15 minutes. Just picturing it.

Alright, I have a quick question. Just had Triple H admit to a drug problem in my game but didn't give me the option to send him to rehab, just suspend him. Is it because he's Unsackable or something else?

The next Raw (Vince's last) will be Vince handing the company over to them. Then I'll probably send Triple H to rehab or something.

Jesse Ventura was being an unprofessional ass, so I let his contract expire, but not before having hotshot rookie Keiichi Yamada squash him and then beat him down in the ring.
The timing couldn't have been better. Just as I let Jesse, Mad Dog (he was being old and annoying) and some of the jobbers go, and the Crusher announced he was retiring, Mid-Atlantic failed to renew Ric Flair's contract. Say hello to your next AWA champ!
Now I get to have Hogan chase Flair for the belt... in the AWA... in 1983/4.

Finished out September and here are a few random things.
-Just got the "CM Punk admitted to an alcohol problem" notice. Between that and the Triple H thing, I'm just gonna Arsenic their behavior up to see if that helps. This is the only time I've cheated except for using Arsenic to improve morale, which you kinda have to do if you adhere to the brand split like I do.
-Mr. McMahon has retired, along with Bill Alfonso who I brought in for a few segments as Ricardo Rodriguez's trainer for his spot as the Special Guest Referee at Night of Champions between Punk and Del Rio. BTW I officially turned Ricardo face and will wrestle more often.
-Developmental Graduates for this month: Matt Cross, Calvin Raines, Portia Perez, Nicole Matthews, Tenille, Alexander Rusev and Jake Carter. I wanted to let go of Raines and Rusev but their brawling is super high, same for Tenille but her Technical is high as well. And Jake Carter too until I realized he was Vader's son. So now I have to find spots for 7 more new people this month. At least Calvin Raines' contract is up in 3 months so I can just choose not to renew it if he sucks.
-Let contracts run out for Goldust (who I couldn't use much as a Non-Wrestler), Sakamoto and Byron Saxton, both of whom were relegated to jobbing on NXT.
-Actually I have a lot of spots opening up on NXT. Broke up both the New Generation and RUN NXT stables, sending Bo and Husky Harris to Raw and Ted DiBiase and Ezekiel Jackson to Smackdown. So basically I have Michael McGillicutty on his own (though he's probably my top face on NXT now, especially since I can't seem to push Johnny Curtis very well), Darren Young and Titus O'Neil aimless and jobbing (and pretty close to cutting Titus loose due to his no-selling) and JTG "fired", only to come back with Clarence Mason (remember him?) as his lawyer to file a racial discrimination lawsuit against NXT and GM Matt Striker.
-Also, I have Archibald Peck in NXT as Archie Evans, a face with a Nerd gimmick trying to get a date with Kelly Kelly. I'll probably have him turn heel and side with Portia Perez (and possibly Nicole Matthews) but I didn't expect them to want to get called up already. I was hoping I'd have another month or so to work a proper angle.

What is the best way to get better public image and to stay financially solid for a company at cult level? Up your advertising level, get the best sponsors possible (lower your risk level if you have to), sign as many guys as possible to a written contract if you have a TV show or run weekly events, stuff like that.
