So... I'm considering making a WMMA3 mod for wrestling and starting a game of that that treats wrestling as if it were real. Thoughts?

That'd be interesting. So basically every match is a legit MMA fight or something? It'd be cool to see who the top guys wind up being in such a mod, besides Brock of course.

Basically, the idea was to have everyone perform like their character. For example, Brock Lesnar would kill everyone easily in real life but instead I'm giving everyone skills that match their "imaginary" wrestling skills. Which means that suddenly John Cena has tons of heart and is actually capable of beating Brock at any time. Same for a guy like Daniel Bryan who will suffer from being undersized but has certain special fighting skills and a ton of heart that makes him a threat.

Just seems like it would be something different. I started on the mod a little last night and got surprisingly far in only an hour or so.

As always seems to be the case this time of year, the temptation is growing to try another modern WWE game from post-WM and on. If I were to do that at some point, I'd almost surely need to not post anything except for PPVs and the like

I feel like "back in the day" I'd get on a serious roll with my feds because I'd just book whenever I felt like playing and would only post the PPVs here. When I try to force myself to post every TV show I run it winds up slowing me down because it ends up being more of a time commitment than I really have available.

But when I would only post PPVs I'd be able to sit down and do a whole week or two of television when motivated and it'd keep the fed plugging along at a decent pace.

I think a quick synopsis of the month leading up to the PPV and then just posting the PPV would work for something like WWE. With my GFW game, I felt the need to go into too much detail to give a mental image for all the unknown characters. With a WWE game, just a quick rundown of what the guys did during the month would suffice though.

We could also all do some sort of roster split game. In fact, a multi-player game of some sort seems like something that should have been done before in this thread. Not sure if I missed it or not.

I think it's been tried a few times, mostly in TEW which I've never really been able to get into because of how in depth it is. I know that Champion of Europa and I did a split EWR game at one point, a loooooong time ago, probably back on the old boards. He booked Raw and I booked SmackDown, and we'd just swap the files to one another.

It was fun, we did a draft before starting the game and set the TV stations so that each of them had the max potential rating so we could fairly judge who was booking the best show.

And yeah, if I did a modern WWE game I'd stick to just monthly recaps and PPVs. I doubt I'd get started on it until next week at the earliest pending the results of WrestleMania. Frankly I might even just do a game booking WM 31 on my own and going from there.

Dunno. Not willing to say my NXT game is dead yet either, I've just been bogged down with other projects the last couple of weekends so my time to sit down and write is limited.

The two main games we use are EWR (Extreme Warfare Revenge, which is what Vito and I use) and TEW (not actually sure what it stands for, which is what Fan uses for his GFW game). They're booking simulators. EWR was made in 2003 and comes loaded with all the wrestlers and staff from that time. There are tons of fan-made mods with modern rosters or pretty much any historical period you can think of, or any "alternate reality" as well.

TEW is a much more advanced game. Because it originally cost money (EWR Has always been free), the creator (Adam Ryland) couldn't include real names. So it comes preloaded with made-up names and promotions. There are, naturally, a bunch of fan-made mods to include the real thing.

EWR is really simple. You can knock out a show in 15 minutes. TEW has a lot more options, so if you really want to dive deep, you could take an hour. The game, though, only provides so much information. These stories that we post are mostly just us expanding on what we've booked in-game for our own amusement.

Yeah, I've actually got TEW 2013 which cost money but is ridiculously in-depth. I've actually started a game where I take over WCW at the beginning of 2000 and try to keep it from going under but like loopy said, when you're sharing here, it's best to go into some detail past what the game gives you for the benefit of others. That's what keeps people from following up on their "dynasties". Having to write stuff out for just one or two people.

There are websites for people who are REALLY into the booking of dynasties and stuff and you can share/talk/getfeedback and stuff. I've just never really gotten THAT deep into it. I was always more comfortable just seeing if I could help build TPWW its own community but I don't think there's that many EWR/TEW players to keep it alive. Which is odd because with constant mods to keep up with the times, it really is a timeless game. Especially with all the flaws in WWE's current booking style.

I'm not a computer whiz but they're not very flashy games. I assume they can run fine on any remotely decent PC.

You can download EWR, which is free and preferred by a lot of people because of its simplicity and the ability to quickly run through months of booking at a time here...

http://www.ewwarehouse.info/mod-index/ew-mod-index/

The very top one (EWR 4.2) being the latest. You can also find all the roster updates on that page. I suggest trying that one out first and seeing how you like it.

Then there's TEW, which is much more in depth but also more time consuming. The first version is free. You can download it, along with the roster updates here...

http://www.ewwarehouse.info/mod-index/tew-05-mod-index/

And finally, if you play those for a bit and want even more depth, there's TEW2013 which costs $35 but is so in depth that some people just can't find the time to basically devote their life to booking a wrestling company via a video game and stick to to free ones.

If you want to create characters in EWR, you should do it before starting your game using the editor feature.

I love the Road to Redemption. Same reason I love Cena's US Title Open Challenge. Gives guys a chance to wrestle the top star in the company when they otherwise would not have had the opportunity to do so.

The USA Network abruptly pulled the plug on both Monday Nitro and Thunder. This came completely out of the blue and has the WCW office scrambling. They'll be looking for a new network home ASAP, but there's a very real chance Raw and SmackDown will run unopposed this week unless Bischoff and company can pull a rabbit out of a hat.

The rumor is that USA was unhappy that WCW went with the risky War Games match at Fall Brawl, despite the network's relatively middle-of-the-road "edginess." More on this as it develops.

Really wanna commit to a game again. I still book. The thought of writing out the descriptions scare me away from doing a diary though.

I like the idea, too. I don't think I've ever gotten through a WWE game on TEW OR EWR nearly enough to complete anything like that even without the diary to tend to. The payoff would be tremendous though.

Alright, I started a TEW2013 game where WCW doesn't get bought by Vince. So I'm gonna try that out. I was only able to get a deal for Nitro right off the bat so booking 1 show a week helps. I got a TV deal with FX (late night... so rating are gonna suck at first) and ran the first show in June 2001. Here goes...

WCW Nitro (Week 1, June 2001)

Tony Shiavonne and Mike Tenay are at ringside and they welcome the latest addition to the WCW broadcast team... Jerry "The King" Lawler!

WCW World Champion Booker T makes his entrance next to a huge ovation. He talks about winning the title just over a month ago and how many of the more selfish guys in the company have left to sit out their old contract but he assures everyone that he is here because he has a passion for wrestling and a passion for WCW. And it's that passion that has lead him to do the right thing. After talking with the new owners, he has decided it's best for the company for him to give up the United States title. He has been assured that the new President, when appointed, will make sure it is awarded fairly to someone who can one day challenge Booker himself for the World Title.

The Jung Dragons (Yun Yang and Kaz Hayashi) w/ Kimona vs Air Raid (Air Styles and Air Paris)

Quick paced back-and-forth match that ends with Kimona getting on the apron and almost getting knocked down by Yang. The distraction is enough for Air Paris to roll Yang up for the 3. Air Raid runs out of the ring and The Jung Dragons do not look happy.

Winners: Air Raid in 9:12

We come back from commercial with Stacy Keibler introducing her man Shawn Stasiak. Stasiak comes out handing out 8x10s of himself to the audience before he gets in the ring and out comes his opponent...

Shawn Stasiak w/ Stacy Keibler vs Dustin Rhodes

A short match that ends when Jeff Jarrett comes out and smashes a guitar over Rhodes' head, causing a DQ. Stasiak and Keibler duck out of the mayhem while Jarrett takes the mic and tells Dustin that even though there's a new WCW, old grudges haven't died and he's not done with him or his daddy.

Winner by DQ: Dustin Rhodes in 3:42

Lance Storm and Mike Awesome of Team Canada come out to plead their case for why either of them should be the new US Champion. Storm says that a good Canadian representative is exactly what the title needs and this brings out Jim Duggan waving the American flag to defend his country. Awesome asks Duggan why there is no Team USA in WCW. He says it's because of shame. This brings out Rick Steiner who tells Team Canada that he was an All-American amateur at Michigan and he'd be proud to join Jim Duggan in taking them down.

"Mean" Gene Okerlund is backstage with WCW World Tag Team Champions The Natural Born Thrillers, Sean O'Haire and Chuck Palumbo, where they discuss their title defense tonight against Totally Buffed, Lex Luger and Buff Bagwell.

"Sugar" Shane Helms vs Kid Romeo

Shane Helms makes his entrance with the WCW Cruiserweight Title for this non-title match. It goes back and forth for a bit but Helms takes control and wins it in the end with a vertebreaker.

Winner: "Sugar" Shane Helms in 6:13

Shane Douglas enters the ring as Kid Romeo is exiting and tells officials to hurry up and get him out of the ring. He gets the mic and makes it clear that he wants the World Title. And if there's a tournament or a battle royal for the US Title, he is going to do exactly what Booker T did but he's keeping everything.

KroniK vs Mike Sanders and Disqo

KroniK makes short work of their opponents after Disqo walks out on Sanders.

Winners: KroniK in 5:07

"Mean" Gene stands on the stage and questions Disqo on why he walked out. Disqo said he spent entirely too long in the old WCW being a loser and he's not gonna be part of another throwaway tag team. He puts his name in the running for the US Title and vows to live up to the potential he always showed.

When we come back, we see a pre-taped promo from Kanyon where he stands in front of a wall scattered with pictures of Hulk Hogan, Kevin Nash, Scott Hall, Sting and Ric Flair. He sarcastically weeps over the fallen legends of WCW, doing bad impressions of them all before looking in the camera and excitedly saying it's his time to shine.

Konnan vs Big Vito

In a somewhat competetive match, Konnan locks Vito in the Tequila Sunrise and forces a tapout. Reno runs into the ring to beat down Konnan but out come Rey Misterio Jr. and Billy Kidman for the save, sending The Mamalukes retreating.

Winner: Konnan in 6:05

Totally Buffed come out for the main event but Buff Bagwell gets on the mic before the match starts and announces he has a surprise for Lex Luger. He brings out Midajah and says she's their new manager. Lex looks puzzled but quickly warms up to the idea when Midajah does a little showing off in front of him.

WCW World Tag Team Title Match: Natural Born Thrillers (Chuck Palumbo and Sean O'Haire) vs Totally Buffed (Lex Luger and Buff Bagwell) w/ Midajah

Long, back and forth main event with many near-falls. The finish comes when Bagwell tries to distract the ref and Midajah throws a pair of brass knuckles in but overthrows Luger, leading to Palumbo grabbing them and hitting Luger. O'Haire pulls Bagwell off the apron in time for the ref to turn around and count the three while Buff slides in and checks on Luger as the show goes off the air.

Winners and STILL WCW World Tag Team Champions: Natural Born Thrillers in 15:30

WCW Nitro (Week 2, June 2001)

Tony Schiavonne, Jerry Lawler and Mike Tenay welcome us to Nitro when they're interrupted by the music of the NWO!

As the music plays, Eric Bischoff walks out and gets on the mic and informs the crowd that unless certain ego-maniacs change their mind, that's the last time you'll be hearing that music on WCW programming. He bashes the guys who decided to sit out their contract and then moves on to shooting on Vince McMahon for trying to buy out WCW and kill it... possibly with a shitty invasion angle or something...

He then tells us he is the new President of WCW and unlike when Ted Turner was controlling things, he isn't interested in taking the company down. He's interested in making the best wrestling company of all time. With that he announces a tournament for the WCW United States Title with qualifying matches to begin tonight. There is a catch though. Only guys who have never held the World Title are eligible. He wants the title to showcase the next crop of legends.

Bischoff then calls out Billy Kidman and Rey Misterio Jr. He tells them that he made a business decision to retire the WCW Cruiserweight Tag Titles but they won't go empty handed. He announces BOTH men as number one contenders to the Cruiserweight Title and next week they will face "Sugar" Shane Helms for it.

As they leave the ring, Jeff Jarrett comes out to buddy up to Eric Bischoff and remind him of their friendship and ask for a World Title shot. Bischoff smiles before telling Jarrett he'll have to earn it tonight in a number one contender's match. Bischoff leaves without revealing his opponent.

Kanyon comes out and gets on the mic to hype himself up as the leader of the new generation and the beginning of his journey is tonight.

WCW United States Title Tournament Qualifying Match: Kanyon vs Jason Jett

Kanyon makes relatively short work of Jason Jett, winning the match with a flatliner.

Winner: Kanyon in 4:17

When we come back from commercial, Shannon Moore and Evan Karagias are in the ring where they perform a quick dance signifying 3 Count is back! Jerry Lawler raves excitedly for their return.

3 Count (Shannon Moore and Evan Karagias) vs Jamie Noble and Lash Leroux

3 Count wins a semi-competetive match when Karagias pins Leroux.

Winners: 3 Count in 8:00

"Mean" Gene Okerlund is backstage with Lex Luger and Buff Bagwell. Lex says he isn't sure about Midajah and feels they could have won the titles last week without her. Buff argues a little before Midajah walks into frame and both men awkwardly get quiet.

Team Canada, Lance Storm and Mike Awesome are out to talk about how they've been granted their US Title tournament entries and tonight is the beginning of the US Title becoming the single greatest title in wrestling.

WCW United States Title Tournament Qualifying Match: Mike Awesome vs James Allen (formerly James Storm)

Mike Awesome wins a squash after an Awesome Bomb

Winner: Mike Awesome in 1:45

"Mean" Gene Okerlund is backstage with Eric Bischoff and asks him who Jeff Jarrett will be facing tonight. Bischoff's only hint is that it's someone who bleeds WCW.

Stacy Keibler comes out to introduce Shawn Stasiak and hypes him up for the US Title tournament.

WCW United States Title Tournament Qualifying Match: Shawn Stasiak vs Norman Smiley

Smiley gets a couple near falls in before finally succumbing to a fisherman's suplex.

Winner: Shawn Stasiak in 4:16

Backstage, Gene Okerlund is with Mike Sanders, asking him about Disqo walking out on him last week. Sanders shrugs it off with a smile and tells Gene that tonight, Disqo is taking the fall.

WCW United States Title Tournament Qualifying Match: Mike Sanders vs Disqo

Mike Sanders gets the win after a semi-competetive match with a springboard moonsault.

Winner: Mike Sanders in 7:41

We see a pre-taped promo where Jim Duggan discusses his US Title tournament qualifying match next week against Lance Storm. At the end, he announces that he will have a friend in his corner just in case. Rick Steiner walks from the darkness in his Michigan jacket and grins at the camera.

Shane Douglas comes out before the main event to tell us he has been entered into the US Title tournament and that his plan doesn't stop there. He knows that with the US Title comes the World Title shot that higher-ups usually wouldn't want him to have.

Jeff Jarrett comes out and awaits his opponent for the main event. After a little bit of silence... Self high five...

WCW World Title #1 Contenders Match: Jeff Jarrett vs Diamond Dallas Page

After a long back-and-forth main event, the referee is knocked out. Jarrett takes the opportunity to go out and grab his guitar. He pulls it back, ready to hit DDP with it before Dusty Rhodes runs out to pull it out of his hands. Jarrett turns around with a "What the hell are you doing, old man!?" before turning around into a diamond cutter. The ref comes to in time to count the 1-2-3.

Winner: Diamond Dallas Page in 17:56

WCW Nitro (Week 3, June 2001)

WCW United States Title Tournament Qualifying Match: Dustin Rhodes vs Mark Jindrak

Jeff Jarrett makes his way out, getting on the apron, only to be knocked down by Dustin. Jindrak tries to take advantage of the distraction but ends up taking a tornado DDT as Rhodes gets to 1-2-3 and advances to the tournament.

Winner: Dustin Rhodes in 8:04

After the match, Jarrett gets back in the ring and double teams Dustin only for Dusty to come out at make the save, bullrope in hand. He hits Jarrett and Jindrak over the head with the bell, sending them to the outside. Jarrett grabs the mic and tells Dusty he wants him one-on-one. Not in a match though. He wants to fight the old man and put him out to pasture once and for all.

Dusty accepts and Eric Bischoff comes out and gets in the ring, asking Dusty if he's sure he wants to do that. Dustin wants to take the fight for him but Dusty says "no" and Bischoff tells him he'll give him a week to think it over.

Air Raid (Air Styles and Air Paris) vs Elix Skipper and Kid Romeo

Air Raid wins a somwhat back and forth match when Styles pins Romeo. Kimona comes out halfway through to watch the match.

Winners: Air Raid in 6:49

Kimona gets in the ring, applauding them as they look on puzzled. Suddenly, she takes out a bag from her cleavage, pouring a white powder in her hands and blowing it in their faces which allows The Jung Dragons to come out and attack, finishing them off with dual top rope legdrops and leaving them laying.

Gene Okerlund is backstage with Rey Misterio Jr. and Billy Kidman to discuss their triple threat match with Shane Helms for the Cruiserweight Title tonight. Playful arguing turns to slight tension and Konnan comes into the picture telling them to stay calm. All that matters is the Cruiserweight Title is coming to The Filthy Animals tonight.

WCW United States Title Tournament Qualifying Match: Lance Storm vs Jim Duggan

In a relatively short match, Duggan and Storm end up outside the ring. As the ref's count gets to 8, Storm goes to slam Duggan's head into the ring post only for Duggan to reverse it and slide in just as the ref counts to 10.

Winner by countout: Jim Duggan in 5:31

Storm recovers and looks on in shock as he has been eliminated from the tournament! His face goes red and Mike Awesome comes out to double team Duggan. Rick Steiner comes out to make the save only to be tied in the ropes and forced to watch as Storm brings a chair in the ring and Awesome delivers 4 powerbombs on Duggan onto it. Officials are finally able to get Awesome and Storm out of the ring and free Steiner as Duggan gets carted off.

Gene Okerlund is in the ring for a special interview with Booker T. Booker says it will be an honor to make his first title defense against DDP. With that, DDP comes out and talks about how the two of them are a dying breed. They could have taken a lot of money to sit home but they still believe in WCW and when they face for the title, may the best man win. They shake hands to end the segment.

WCW United States Title Tournament Qualifying Match: Shane Douglas vs Hugh Morris

Douglas accidentally knocks the referee out of place and takes advantage of it by hitting a low blow followed by a Pittsburgh plunge on Morris for the win.

Winner: Shane Douglas in 6:02

Gene Okerlund catches up with Team Canada backstage to ask about their actions against Jim Duggan. Rick Steiner rushes them before they can speak and security swarms to break things up.

WCW United States Title Tournament Qualifying Match: Konnan vs Johnny Swinger

Konnan wins it cleanly by submission with a tequila sunrise.

Winner: Konnan in 4:44

Tony Schiavonne tells us of something going on backstage. We see Midajah pulling a cameraman down the hall and then making him hide behind a doorway where we watch her approach WCW World Tag Team champions Palumbo and O'Haire. She flirts a little, allowing Buff Bagwell and Lex Luger to attack from behind, leaving them down and out. Midajah looks in the camera and says "That's for anyone who doubts what an asset I can be. Whether it's you..." She then turns and stares down Luger. "... or you."

WCW Cruiserweight Title Triple Threat Match: "Sugar" Shane Helms vs Rey Misterio Jr. vs Billy Kidman

A long, action-packed back and forth match ends when Rey Misterio hits a hurricanrana on Kidman. Before Misterio can reach back and grab Kidman's legs for the three, Helms dropkicks Rey in the back of the head and takes the pin, retaining the title.

Winner: "Sugar" Shane Helms in 15:21

After the match, Helms helps Misterio up and the two of them look at each other. Helms shrugs and he and Misterio shake hands and hug. They help Kidman up, too and both men raise Helms' arms. Konnan comes out, gets in the ring and gets in Rey and Kidman's faces before yelling "That was cheap!" at Helms as Rey and Kidman try to calm things down as the show goes off the air.

Diva matches are very rarely any good in EWR, but some of them are super over, so I need to work them in somehow.

TEW has angles where the ratings are based solely on sex appeal. So I usually have a diva just come out and shoot t-shirts to warm up the crowd.

Come to think of it, doesn't EWR have an "eye candy" option where the match is rated on how hot the divas are and not on wrestling skill?

Not really, the match quality rating is always there. There is a "looks" attribute so if you were to book an ugly diva to lose in a buck naked match, for instance, the rating would be far worse.

M-A-G had to have the best usage of divas ever on the old version of EWR. Just signed loads of young unknown indy divas right at the start and left them in training camp for several years. Rinse, lather, repeat and suddenly the divas are constantly churning out 4 star matches.

Fan with a cruiserweight title match main event? Probably would have been booted off the air if the game wasn't made by people who probably jerk off to Billy Kidman matches.
