It's a text-based wrestling simulation computer game

Though I'm realizing now that link doesn't actually give you any of the vital information about the game.

Essentially it's a booking game. You can be either the booker or the owner of the company. You control your company by managing the talent, events, TV and PPV deals, you do the booking, the choices you make when booking are all designed to have different effects and potential outcomes... it's very comprehensive. I mean it's impressive really.

But yeah, there are "mods" for it. Anyone can create a mod for it. The default database is a fantasy world, but people make mods based on different time periods or scenarios. Like, there's a mod based in 1994 when Hogan came to WCW. A mod based in 2001 when WCW died. Or alternatively, a mod where it lives.

And there's a real world mod that's updated monthly to coincide with the actual wrestling world. So, like, there's an April 2020 mod with all the current companies and wrestlers and what not of right now.

In total there's probably at least 30-50 different mods. Some are based in reality, some are based in reality but with some kind of twist (ie Owen Hart lives or something like that) and some are complete fantasy.

I fully recommend the game. It is very much like the GM mode of old, but actually A LOT MORE comprehensive. It first came out in 2005 and a new version comes out every few years. 2016 was the last one, but the 2020 edition is set to come out soon.

Anyways, the point of me telling you all this was to tell you that me and Chris are trying to create a 2010 mod for the game. :lol Took a while to get to the point, I know.

Damn. So you're telling me you didn't start watching wrestling until your mid 20s?
