How do you lower someone's overness? The dude is already pissed, I might as well smurf him over while I'm at it.

book him to lose to jobbers, book him in angles where people no-sell his finisher, etc.

Coolio. Thanks.

I'm a little EWR'd out for now, so calling it a night. at least for now

Will Do.

WWE did another huge firing spree.

I picked up Val Venis, Kenny, Mike Mondo, Johnny Jeter, and Cocky Siaki.
Mondo, Jeter, and Siaki were all for under $20k a month

EDIT: Can't sign Dragon. He's unsackable with PWG

I usually sign him to an open contract, until eventually PWG does go under.

Am I a jerk?

I go to the webiste that gives information on other promotions and find one that has one performer that the promotional relies on and if they lose them "The whole company could be in trouble."

Then I hire that person.

As long as the other company is the same size (or close to the same size) as your own I'd say that you're not a jerk.

Well...

What if I'm WWE and I sign Mike Quackenbush away from CHIKARA?

Jerk.

For anyone running TNA, don't be afraid to break up LAX and push Homicide as a singles star. I have him at 95 over and he is the TNA World champ right now, and he is going to feud with Sting.

I had both LAX members at 95+, they naturally feuded with AMW, who were each 99 over.

Needless to say, that feud made me some money.

Man after playing for about 2 years game time as WWE the top 5 American workers are:

1. Adam Peirce
2. Top Gun Talwar
3. CM Punk
4. Roadkill
5. Triple H

Thank you OVW!

[Reverend BTY]

Slowly but surely I'm giving Mistico the down grade. That way when he's fired, he doesn't make someone else money

I signed Quack away from Chikara,too

["Playboy" Don Douglas]

I have so many games going on it isn't funny.

Using the default settings, I've resurrected Smoky Mountain Wrestling. I haven't played it in a while, but I'm pretty sure I'm up to Cult status and have began signing some guys to written deals. I can't remember much else about it right now, as I've been playing the other 3 games more.

I'm running the 2001 WCW scenario. I've gotten some TV back, signed some guys like Corino, Van Dam, and Jake Roberts, fired some guys like Sid, Nash, Luger, Bagwell, and several others who were taking up space, and opened a developmental company, currently housing just about every Indy darling available at the time.

NWA, 1986. Flair and Dusty at the top for the world title, Magnum TA and Tully Blanchard for the US title, and Luger & Windham vs the Andersons for the tag titles. Oh, and Midnights vs Rock n Rolls for the US tag titles of course. I signed Tiger Mask, stole Mike Rotunda from Florida and put them in a feud. I signed Ted Dibiase from the UWF and have had him in regular matches with The Great Muta. That's all I remember at the moment.

WCW, 1992. Rick Rude and Ricky Steamboat are certified main eventers after a feud with each other over the US title. Sting just won the world title from Luger, and was jumped by Rude after the match. The Enforcers (Double A and Larry Zybysko) quickly won the world tag titles from Steamboat and Dustin Rhodes and were feuding with the Steiners, when Arn ripped a bicep and is out for 7 months. So I ran the replacement Angle, and Richard (Ricky) Morton replaced him. I'm still getting 4 star matches out of it. Vader and Ron Simmons are beating the hell out of each other, with both having complained about the other being too stiff. Teddy Long is in rehab for the booger sugar. The MVC (Williams and Gordy) just hired Harley Race as manager and took the US tag titles from the Young Pistols. I'm trying to build them up for a hot feud with the Steiners over the world titles. I signed Joe & Dean Malenko, Eddie Guerrero & Psychosis, put them in a tag feud, and all 4 went from openers (and jobbers, in one or 2 cases) to midcarders in around a month.

[The Line]

my first event's rating was...not so good

Briscoes vs. Team Ego-71
Rave vs. Pelle-45
Romero vs. Claudio-76
Aries vs. Sydal-69
Danielson vs. Strong-75
Cocky Siaki vs. Venis-65
Mondo vs. Jeter-63
Murdoch vs. Dykstra-66

Overall-66

[The Line]

Rocky Romero has stated that he has an alcohol problem. What should I do? As you can see, he had the best match on my PPV

[The Line]

anyone?

[The Line]

c'mon. there's gotta be 1 EWR player out there

Trust your gut.

Most of the time, I send people to rehab.

If you want to push him until he checks himself into rehab, that's up to you.

[The Line]

I sent him to rehab. Hopefully its just for a short while

["Playboy" Don Douglas]

Yeah I usually go ahead and send them to rehab. That's what I would do in this situation as well. He had the best match on your show, but not by much, and you had a couple other matches that were near the same level.

Just my 2 cents.
