No vince, no brock, no views

WWE gon off the deep end

Also ECW isn't one of the four big promotions he's referencing. Personally I would imagine ECW would be set up in the game in a way that they'll struggle financially and maybe end up dying, as in real life, or at most remain an indie company.

Probably, I might set them as they were, a small indy company with decent finances from Gordon, but no real stars.

I don't know the specifics of how AWA and USWA are supposed to become on par with the other two

So AWA's on a national deal with ESPN, and USWA is currently on SHOWTIME.

 

[Bobby Barrows]

AWA and USWA largely survive and strive because A.) WrestleMania and WWF aren't as successful as they are in real life, and many of the territories don't get bought out by Vince, but the other companies, and B.) Watts and Verne don't come into financial issues, thus are able to better retain talent or hire better talent.

 

[Hoss]

Personally I hope to play this mod someday

 

[Bobby Barrows]

TBH I think ECW might actually be okay.

 

[Hidden Blaze]

Personally I hope to play this mod someday

yeah. Grim better give us it

Looking at all four rosters, there's lots of room for the indies to have some underrated talents.

I thought Vince dies in 1992 in your game? If that's the case it's way too late for that.

It's an alternate timeline lol, Vince is still alive in the 80s lmfao

WWF not being as successful as it was in the 80s was very possible even in real life.

So in this reality WM1 did not succeed? Cause I thought you were starting in 1992 and if that's the case WWF would be in full force, and AWA would be dead.

I dunno how I can lay it out any further lol, WWF is successful, but not nearly as successful as they were in real life. Mania is a success and everything, but Vince doesn't rake in the funds he does IRL. This leaves him unable to hoard as much talent as he can, while Bill Watts isn't forced to close because of the Oklahoma oil crash, and Verne nets a more profitable ESPN deal, and gets talents like Randy Savage.
