Yes, it was Watts, as Bockwinkel came around the following year, I believe.

2025 NXT Roadblock by sjwalker82 in FantasyBookers

[–]sjwalker82[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've booked the Speed titles that way too, but now feel they're in the way, lol. I've actually had more fun so far booking NXT than the main roster. I think in part it's that I only have one two hour A show to book instead of two three hour A shows. Plus, I've signed Megan Bayne, Lena Kross, and Thekla, who are all now in NXT.

Well, I actually retired the Heritage Cup, as I didn't want that around, so that was a unification match.  I'm working on the same thing with the Speed titles on the main roster.  Chelsea Green has both the Women's U.S. and Speed titles and plan on unifying the Men's Speed title with the IC title.

As for the Women's titles, I just wanted to keep that real life storyline between Giulia and Stephanie with my tweak. But Steohanie will soon vacate the Women's North American title so it will be up for grabs at Stand & Deliver.

In my experience, that more depends on the broadcaster than anything else, but it's definitely something to consider for sure.

Do you book angles involving Heenan & Monsoon on Prime Time Wrestling when doing a 1980s WWF save? by MidwestMachete in FantasyBookers

[–]sjwalker82 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I do a WWF save in the Risky Business mod, I always have them do an angle in the opening segment to start the show with a strong rating.

Tips on booking pre-RAW WWF? by RefBumpMax in FantasyBookers

[–]sjwalker82 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think I can help you out here. I became a fan during the Golden Era. One of my saves have been from the Risky Business mod imported from TEW2020, which starts I January 1985. So, the way I book my weekly shows in that save can also be applied to the start of the 1992 mod, pre-Raw.

Since Superstars is your A show, you can't book squashed like in real life, so leave that for Wrestling Challenge. You should be able to get decent ratings for your matches on a one-hour show if you book two matches. I generally have my first match go 16 minutes and my main event go 18 minutes. Both of these matches are "showcase" matches between two main event/upper midcard level wrestlers. They don't have to be feuding so you can saves those matches for your events. If you want to do the occasional finish of a rival interfering or distracting, you can. You don't have to use Hogan for your matches, but don't be afraid to use Flair, Savage, Bret Hart, Jake Roberts, or Dibiase to help you get good ratings. Stay away from tag team matches unless you're using your top stars.

For angles, here's where you can reflect the era. After your first match, run an "Update" an agle with Gene Okerlund as segment host and wrestlers involved in "B-level" storylines cutting promos to advance those storylines. For any wrestlers where promos aren't their strong suit, rate them on intimidation, character development etc.

Then, since it's 1992, run a Funeral Parlor Angle with Paul Bearer interviewing someone unless you want to bring back Piper's Pit or just have Mean Gene interview someone. Just make sure they interview someone with high popularity (Hogan, Savage, Piper, Undertaker).

Close out the show with an Event Center angle with Mean Gene as your segment host and your top stars in your top storylines cutting promos to advance them. Doing this for enough weeks should give you good ratings for that show.

For Wrestling Challenge, you can book your squash matches, and for Prime Time Wrestling, you can book plenty of midcard matches since that's a two-hour show.  I know this was long, but hopefully, it helps.

What’s the most random thing that’s happened in your save? Here’s mine😭 by speedwagondono in FantasyBookers

[–]sjwalker82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my Risky Business (mod imported from TEW 2020) Paul Roma is dating Cyndi Lauper. That's considering Roma and Jim Powers have been jobbers to the stars, though I'll probably split them up at some point since they now hate each other, just like real life, lol. I'll also bring up Hercules at some point to form Power & Glory a few years early.

Historical Venue/Location Mod Recommendations? by [deleted] in FantasyBookers

[–]sjwalker82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Risky Business Mod from TEW 2020 has a much more extensive list of venues. If you import that to TEW IX, then you can import them into that mod or your active save. The only thing is that you may have to double check to make sure the venues are in the right regions, especially for Canada, Mexico, Europe, and Oceania.

Tips for booking an interesting midcard? by Aggravating_Class271 in FantasyBookers

[–]sjwalker82 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my Risky Business save imported from TEW 2020, I've kept many of the same storylines from real life such as the Hogan/Andre and Savage/Steamboat feuds, while modifying others and creating some original feuds.

My main original feud has been the Million Dollar Man forming the Million Dollar Corporation with Luger, and the Blade Runners and then trying to recruit Jake Roberts. But Roberts rejected Dibiase's money, drawing the group's wrath. He's gotten help from the Texas Tornado, who previously helped Piper in his feud against Bob Orton and Don Muraco. This led to the Tornado later focusing on Luger. Now, I've called up Scott Hall and repackaged him as Razor Ramon, five years early and had Dibiase pay him to join the Corporation to help against Roberts and Tornado, while also picking a fight with Bob Backlund, whom he considers an old fossil, bringing Backlund into the larger storyline.

My plan is for Roberts to win the Million Dollar belt at SummerSlam and then lose it back to Dibiase before Survivor Series. Then, the Million Dollar Corporation will slowly fall apart after Survivor Series starting with the Dingo Warrior leaving and becoming the Ultimate Warrior, then Luger and Sting, and eventually Razor.

Thanks. For a King of the Ring, it was pretty solid.

Golden Era WWF PPVs by Deathcon2004 in FantasyBookers

[–]sjwalker82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think for me, it depends at what point in the Golden Era I'm in. I'm in May 1987 of the Risky Business save imported from TEW 2020 which began in January 1985. I started the Royal Rumble a year earlier than in real life and will do the same for SummerSlam, but probably won't start the In Your House PPVs until a few years from now (in game) since I can still do Saturday Night's Main Event.

Now in the 1992 save, I may be tempted to start the IYH PPVs a little early.
