This show rating should be 100 based on Regal and Taylor's tag team name alone; love "Royal Tea!" Haha. And great idea Regal talking about his love of tea, playing into his English character! Great stuff. Think the idea of having nWo wanting the title and having Sting with his alliance in the same opening segment is a genius idea; VERY attitude-esque (well, to me at least!), and absolutely the way forward to open up a show. Agree with Dave Mac, that should be a 250 segment too haha. Booker T drawing with Scott Hall, not winning, but not losing, again great. I'd like to think you're telling a casual fan who'd be watching this at a show thinking "Well, he's gonna beat Scott Hall soon! It's only a matter of time!" Don't blame you for using Chavo Jr Vs Raven again; might as well as they've got decent chemistry, and before the annoying "there'll be a penalty to the score because they're fighting each other for the 5th time" warning. I don't think that should be a thing (e.g. Chris Benoit Vs Booker T Best of 7, which if I'm right in saying actually happened in WCW in 98?) I'll always enjoy the TEW aspect of booking, but as other commenters have mentioned, from the way you talk about your matches and angles, you definitely deserve better than a 71. Really enjoying this mod!

Thanks again man. TEW doesn't always translate well to real life, especially with historical MODS. As we mentioned on DaveMac's live stream, TEW doesn't know Chris Jericho, or Sting or Raven, it just see's a bunch of stats.

@@ruthlessjobber Agreed. Stats are like appearances; they're deceiving!

79 is solid for a main event. Jericho held his own in it, too, so it looks like he's ready to take on a big role. Definitely an improvement from Sid main events. Glancing over the rest of the ratings, it all looks good, so I think the show getting a 71 is just down to the storyline penalty, which as you've said is solvable as soon as you get more permutations of the nWo/Alliance angle. You're on the right track. I love the Regal/Taylor tag team, especially with them bonding over a love of tea. Brilliant! Booker T getting the draw with Hall is cool, and I like the idea of Booker getting roped into an nWo story. Breathes some life into the nWo stable to have more than one thing to focus on, and from a TEW standpoint, gives you more opportunity to put Hogan & co on camera to prop up those ratings. Enjoying the show, brother. Keep up the great work.

Thanks, really appreciate it. It is going in the right direction. I'm trying to give time to the storylines, even the ones I should probably just kill off already! I'm confident of things getting better soon.

Honestly 79 main event for a TV show I think is perfectly fine. If anything I start getting my TV shows main events are getting 85+ I get annoyed as those are the matches we should be saving to PPV's.

@@ruthlessjobber true. But st the same time there were other bits that tanked the shows overall rating. The other short term option is to spam the main event talent in the short term to steady the ship and then try and introduce some more up and coming talent later. What is your overall pop and what do you need to be hitting to gain popularity?

@@ruthlessjobber also how much are you happy to game the system in terms of storylines? Some think it’s a bit cheating. But I think if you can start weaving storylines together you can start getting your big names into the lower down stories which drags all your storylines rating up fairly quickly.

Yeah, maybe I could think something up!

How did that first segment with basically all the nWo and every mega star of the time only get rated 86 🤣 I was fully expecting a rating of about 250 with all the talent in the ring!! Quality show. As was already mentioned but I like Booker T being involved with the nWo feels like an interesting but good fit.

I can only think Sid & Rick Rude brought the rating down a bit. I'm sure they would have gained pop form it, so I'm not too annoyed with 86.
