Another probably simple question: Is there a way to just watch matches without playing them in Universe? Just select the match on the Match Card menu by pressing A/X, and then when the match starts, just press start, and it should be a CPU v. CPU match. Thank you sir. I'm having a good time with this game. I want to eventually ween out of using the WWE Universe and get a bunch of ROH/PWG caws but it seems like it's unavoidable to have WWE guys make appearances constantly anyways so I might just stick with the default roster and throw some indy guys in from time to time. The improved gameplay and awesome roster are really making Universe fun, there aren't any JTGs, Khalis or Shads on the roster that just reading the match bores me to tears. So far so good THQ in spite of your typical flaws.

Weird storyline time:
Christian and Eddie Guerrero had a match last week on Smackdown, where Eddie won clean. At the end of the match he attempted to help Christian back to his feet out of respect but Christian low blowed him, did some jumping jacks for some reason and left the arena.
Now this week, Eddie and Christian were booked to take on Sin Cara and Daniel Bryan, but Christian doesn't show up. Part way through the match, Christian DOES show up, and Eddie is elated. But then Christian lays into Eddie, then post cutscene, he slaps Daniel Bryan in the mouth, then GOES TO THE APRON, and PARTICIPATES IN THE MATCH! So Christian still has intentions of winning his match in spite of flatlining his partner. This feud is off to a weird start.

I'm getting pissed. Universe won't stop using my CAWs as mystery opponents and forcing them into stories. I don't want my CAWs in Universe. That's why they're free agents ffs. This. For about a month in a row, Raw's "REMARKABLE" main event was my CAW vs. Drew McIntyre. Even though he's on the Free Agent list. Then again, short-haired Christian attacked Randy Orton while he was on the free agent list. So I doubt they care that much about it. As for the graphics, I think they're okay, but then there are some wrestlers like the aforementioned Booker T and McIntyre and Yoshi Tatsu that have these... really creepy looking eyes.

Lawn Dart-gate has not been forgotten, Rey Mysterio has been relentless in his pursuit of Kevin Nash.

Just had my first Royal Rumble. Here are the results for those interested. Dolph Ziggler defeated Mason Ryan to retain the Classic Intercontinental Championship Wade Barrett defeated Ricky Steamboat to win the United States Championship Michelle McCool defeated Kelly Kelly to retain the Women's Championship Triple H defeated Kevin Nash to retain the World Heavyweight Championship John Cena defeated Cody Rhodes to retain the Attitude Era WWE Championship Who won the Royal Rumble? {Spoiler}John Cena Wins
How I wish I was kidding. I decided to sim it and what would you know? Cena enters at 26 and eliminates CM Punk to win.
The question is now, what will John Cena do at WrestleMania? Will he take the night off? Will he face Triple H in an attempt to unify the world titles? Will he face Michael Cole for one of the world titles I'm not using in Universe Mode? Will Elimination Chamber throw a spanner in the works? Stay tuned to find out.

In the same night, The Rock won the WWE Championship and the Royal Rumble. So I made him drop the belt to Vader in the Elimination Chamber and they had a match for it at WrestleMania.

Reminds me of where I left off, with Bryan with the WWE title and Punk with the World title, both routinely dropping in on each other's matches but keeping things civil in an apparent build to unifying the gold, while Undertaker has just won the Rumble.

Storyline update:
As I mentioned before, World Heavyweight champion Daniel Bryan joined the NWO. I then moved him to Raw, where he quickly beat CM Punk for the WWE title. Seeing as how he both belts anyway, I gave him the Undisputed Champion belt and made it the top title. (Smackdown got the Champions of Champions belt.) Over the ensuing months, two big name stars joined Bryan, Nash and Husky Harris - The Rock and Cena. Bryan ended up losing the title his arch rival Alex Riley, but ended up getting it back a month later. I just finished Wrestlemania, which saw Bryan put on a clinic against Royal Rumble winner William Regal.
As for Smackdown, I decided that I was going to push whoever was holding the Champion of Champions belt like a main eventer. It ended up being Yoshi Tatsu. Surprisingly enough, he started getting over. I guess beating The Undertaker three times in a row will get anyone over. His Wrestlemania opponent was number one contender Vladimir Kozlov.

Reminds me of when Cena lost the title at the Royal Rumble to Captain America, only to enter the Rumble later on and win it.

Go to the "Schedule" menu in WWE Universe, then highlight the show you want to change, and press "X/Square" (I think..?) to go edit the show. Then, there should be choices to change the belts for it, if you chose SmackDown or Raw.

Go to the schedule, press X or assumingly Square on the show you want to change. Any post-Mania PPVs you want to change you have to wait until it's passed, though, and while you can replace Superstars you can't make it its own brand.

Speaking of changing Superstars, I altered it to the "WWE Muppet Show", complete with lazily-made arena patterned after Kermit the Frog.

I'm absolutely loving Universe mode. Having not bought a WWE game since 2007, its alot more realistic then I thought it was going to be (since most of the stories I hear on this forum involve crazy and nonsensical storylines).
Miz beat Cena in the main event of Wrestlemania for the WWE title.
Mark Henry destroyed Randy Orton to win the world title, also at Wrestlemania, then on the next Smackdown he layed out Kane and Orton after their matches. Awesome.

Im in the midst of making my NWO storyline. It begins with the Rock making the choice to either vacate the title at John Cena's behest, or tell Cena to go screw himself. Both choices eventually leading to Rock getting beat down pre or post match by Cena and CM Punk, injuring him.
It then picks up on Superstars, where Zack Ryders is going up against Christian for the IC Title, which he is victorious. CM Punk then approaches Ryder and talks him into joining the NWO come Smackdown.
Cena, Punk, and Ryder arrive on SD, with Tyson Kidd, and Sin Cara filing out of a limo with them. They then take on Drew, Husky Harris, and Cody Rhodes and declare themselves the new era of change after the match. The Main Event is Airboom versus Kidd and Sin Cara for the Unified Tag championships, and depending on whether they successfully retain or not, end up on the wrong side of a vicious post match beatdown (unless Kidd and Sin Cara win, then that leads to the next raw).
And from here alot of branching happens:
A (if you demolished the rock, and won the tag titles): The Nwo cut an opening promo on Raw, stating that Cena was to take on Dolph Ziggler for the US title. After that, a #1 contender's match between Sheamus, Christian, and John Morrison takes place, with a branch off for each character winning. John Cena then faces Ziggler for the US championship, which ends in a beatdown.
B(If you won the titles with airboom) Raw begins with Kofi finding an injured Knocked out Evan Bourne, and has to defend the titles in two different ways. (A= a tornado tag match with a very injured Evan against the NWO, B= Kofi has to run a gauntlet against the NWO, with John Cena being the last man). If you successfully retain the belt, it cuts to Cena Vs Ziggler ending in another massive beatdown of Ziggler, ending the show.
continued...

Just got to the Jacob Cass story. Made a REALLY good looking Austin Aries to go along with it. The two finishers are a Brainbuster (YAY!) and a Superkick (...eh). Was really hoping for the 450 as well, but oh well.

So, when you get to Cass, what can you alter with the guy?

My biggest feud right now is Goldust against Kingston for the US Title which culminated in a TLC match at TLC and Dust winning the title only for Kingston to get injured yet comes back 3 months later and feuds with Drew over the 1# contender for the US title which Jacob Cass has now. Cass is in a best of ad nauseum series with Otunga over the title
