    30:46 You are wild for that one! This was such a wonderful and thorough explanation. I was really struggling with how to book more efficiently without burnout. The part that helped me the most was your storylines & What if sections because I was trying to type out full scripts instead of just being brief. Thanks a ton and I am subscribing.

    This mod needs an overhaul with some wrestlers. Ric Flair a hard drug user? He is a drinker but even then, he was very functional so he should have the drinker attribute and Hogan had 0 issues in WWF letting someone go over if it meant a good storyline, he shouldn't have that ludicrous That doesn't work for me brother attribute unless he leaves WWF but instead should have the money motivated bc that is what he cared about, will this angle/match make money. I hope TEW IX minimizes some of these attributes

    2020 makes insignificant sized promotions fun because for the first dozen shows you just need to get above your base number in your home region so if you've started with your own promotion you can hire in half a dozen rookie graduates and just have to get an overall grade above 0 and this works until you're around 10 iin your home region, but hopefully by that point your roster are gaining governess as well

    Just to give you an update on my save, I tried to sign Sting, but due to his loyalty to WCW, he wouldn't sign an exclusive deal. So, he's resigned with WCW. I have bought out another company, though, giving me two child companies now, IWCCW, and now the one in Alberta (I forget the name), which already has Lance Storm and Jericho.

  • @wrestleblake

    I forgot about the potential WCW loyalty for Sting! That's disappointing. But love the idea of adding more child companies. Oddly enough, I've been reading one of Lance Storm's books and I think the promotion was CRMW? He tells a lot of funny stories about his run there. Who knows, you may see one or both of them pop up soon in the series...

    I'm also doing a save with this mod and I'm halfway through May. Initially, I booked very closely to real life, so I took some liberties like editing out Hogan's creative control clause. Now, though, I'm beginning to do a little bit more fantasy style booking like signing future WWF stars like Paul Levesque (whom Ted Dibiase is now mentoring) and sent most of them down to IWCCCW, which is now my child company after buying them out. I've also revived the Women's division after buying out the women's promotions and signing free agents like Velvet McIntyre. Along with that, I've also added tv deals in Mexico and Japan and plan to sign a new one in Canada in January. Of course, by then, I'll have Raw. I kept Prime Time Wrestling and book it like real life with a bunch of matches taken from live events, so no squashes. Most of the segments are like real life with the panel with Vince, Heenan, Slick, and Hillbilly Jim. They're joined by Mike McGuirk in the second one, Beefcake in the third, Sean Mooney in the fourth, and Mean Gene in the last one. Then, Mean Gene does his ppv report with the big names being talked about like Hogan, Savage, etc. For Wrestling Challenge, that's almost exactly like real life with almost all squash matches against the jobbers. Lord Alfred Hayes has his special report highlighting one or two feuds. Mooney has his segment like in the event center, highlighting less important feuds and Gene has has report on the biggest feuds. For Superstars, since that's my A show and is one hour, I have two or three marquee matches along with Gene's report at the end of the show like in the other ones, and his update earlier on the show to showcase other feuds. I thought about making King of the Ring a ppv a year early but decided to wait until 1993 like in real life since I'll have Raw and plan on making it a two-hour show, so I'll be able to book four qualifying matches a week, one on Challenge, one on Superstars, and two on Raw.
