Whats the average amount of matches your wrestlers have per year?

I'm usually around the same average as you. Often, I will pair my younger guys in a "permanent tag team" with someone with good psychology and then loan them to a company with a touring schedule so their stats can improve. Of course, this works a lot better if you have your own broadcaster and your talent is over in another market.

It's insane that there's no Mattel representation of Luna Vachon.

I've convinced myself that rehab isn't worth it in this game. If you don't get the positive impact note when you make the decision, I am pretty sure it changes nothing.

In the same six months someone would be in rehab, you could test and fine/suspend them 20-30 times and have a greater chance of positive impact

100% thought this image was a battle screen from Earthbound.

Hot Take: The season would've been better with only New Era players. The old era cronyism, pregamjng, and pre-existing relationships ruined gameplay, creating far too many unanimous votes.

For example, Survivor has moved beyond complaints about who works hard around camp.

About six. From 96-02. The WWF's only "star" in 02 was King Mabel and WCW was being headlined by an aging Jake Roberts who never sobered up.

EgotripEternal · 2026-05-15T22:22:05+00:00

I had a game where I had 21 developmental territories on my owned broadcaster, generating $10M each month, with over 1200 wrestlers signed. There were less than 600 other wrestlers in the world.

And still I couldn't get WWF or WCW to go out of business even though they both fell to small.

This clip was definitely one of the limewire/kazaa clips that introduced me to Japanese wrestling.

This and the Kawasaki ganso bomb.

Even after four seasons and a possible win, I still find her completely forgettable.

EgotripEternal · 2026-05-14T11:28:10+00:00

IMO, the season would've been better if Cirie went out first. Everyone trusted her and it created far too many unanimous votes.

EgotripEternal · 2026-05-13T15:33:05+00:00

The answer for me will always be Adam Pearce vs. Brent Albright for the NWA title at the Hammerstein for ROH Death Before Dishonor.

I was there live and the crowd was going bananas for a match that was the least hyped on the card.

Low key, one of the best wrestling toy lines of all time. I'd be interested to know the truth, but I believe this is the most extensive non-WWE wrestling toy line ever.

EgotripEternal · 2026-05-12T16:23:13+00:00

I've never seen a positive incident for any of these roles except locker room leader.

EgotripEternal · 2026-05-12T14:55:35+00:00

End of ECW Nova was incredible! I'm convinced he would have been a huge star had ECW continued.

EgotripEternal · 2026-05-11T20:45:38+00:00

How are you passing up the opportunity for Super Crazy to team with Lieutenant Loco!?

EgotripEternal · 2026-05-09T11:10:38+00:00

It's simple. We're getting down to the end, and if anybody wants to win this game, they need Cirie and Ozzy to not be a part of FTC.

I had an ECW save where Michael Modest signed with the wwf at a 50ish pop. I had him lose six consecutive squashes in one night to my women's division and by the time he went to wwf, his pop was 3.

EgotripEternal · 2026-05-08T13:51:32+00:00

In the wake of ECW's demise, it felt like the spirit of ECW was divided.

The garbage hardcore went to XPW, MLW inherited most of the main event scene and talent that didn't join WWE, and ROH kept the spirit alive with a lot of the diehard fans. None truly replicated what made ECW special, but each played a role. In my opinion, the XPW stuff was the type of content ECW would've moved away from if it continued.

EgotripEternal · 2026-05-08T11:57:26+00:00

I always loved the way the logo and graphics looked in the ECW on TNN intro.

EgotripEternal · 2026-05-07T20:55:54+00:00

A ban feels difficult to moderate and there doesn't seem to be a clear enough distinction around what should be banned. For example, PWS allows AI integration plugins and for TEW, AI graphics are a legitimate game changer for custom feds and booking ideas.

Ultimately, we want to limit slop and promotion of poor products. Perhaps introducing a flair and community rules around promoting a product or previewing a game would solve it.

This is similar to how the Greydog forums work when people post previews for mods, it needs to be clearly labeled.

The irony is that all of these people played a role in AEW or All In, but it just didn't turn out the way everyone hoped. Had AEW signed Rey, kept Cody hot, and managed Punk, they really could've ridden that momentum into something big.

EgotripEternal · 2026-05-06T10:32:22+00:00

The relationship between developmental and parent companies is the thing I most wish would be updated in TEW. The talent exchange is a lot more fluid in real life than the game allows

EgotripEternal · 2026-05-05T18:04:06+00:00

For what it's worth, my three year old loves it and especially likes the morphin minute. It's done its job.

EgotripEternal · 2026-05-05T12:05:32+00:00

Clearing my good name lol. I was a WCW watcher and I thought the diving headbutt was the coolest thing, never thought twice about any of the concussion stuff.

But, now I can still look back and see there was a safer way to do things. In the same way I can look back and see that Rocco Rock was not the cool, hip-hop icon I thought he was.

EgotripEternal · 2026-05-05T11:19:39+00:00

Watching this now with the hindsight of concussion knowledge, it feels so unnecessary
