DCMaximo 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2004 (prays for *****) Teddy Hart vs Shannon Moore. Match Background: This is a continuation of the T. Hart vs Shannon feud. Neither has managed to get an in-ring victory in this feud. The Match: Standing leg lariat by Shannon Moore on T. Hart. STIFF high kick on T. Hart by Shannon Moore. Spin kick by Shannon Moore to the face sends the opponent FLYING across the ring. Spin kick by Shannon Moore to the face sends the opponent FLYING across the ring. Teddy Hart fights out of a grapple. Teddy Hart hits a rolling kick on Shannon. Konnan has ruined any chance for me ever enjoying this maneuver again with his shitty execution of it. Shannon takes a NICE hurrancarana from Teddy Hart. Hooks the leg for a two count. Shannon flips out of a Teddy Hart bodyslam attempt. Super kick by Shannon Moore. There's a two count on the pin. Tiger suplex on T. Hart. No Misawa references from me, I swear. Oh, dammit. Hooks the leg! ONE...TWO...NO! Shannon Moore misses a big legdrop after stalling too long. Spinning back kick from Teddy Hart. Shannon blocks a kick from Teddy Hart. Shannon Moore hits a rolling kick on T. Hart. Konnan has ruined any chance for me ever enjoying this maneuver again with his shitty execution of it. Jamie Koeppe has climbed up onto the apron! T. Hart turns...and falls for the distraction! Shannon Moore attacks T. Hart from behind! Teddy Hart is stunned as Shannon heads to the top rope. Mooregasm! 1....2....3. Shannon Moore leaves the ring and heads off down the aisle at speed. Shannon has the victory, and isn't hanging around for Teddy Hart to look for revenge. My Opinion: Consider yourself lucky, a ****1\4 is hard to get and it was earned every step of the way. Let's see if you can do better now. NOOOOOOOOO!!!! I feel like the guy in Mallrats who can't see the damn sailboat. This game hates me! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lightning Flik 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2004 You need a high match rating. Like 95-100 before he'll even consider it. As well as at least 90 heat. Even then, you aren't going to get it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DCMaximo 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2004 Yeah, it's strange because both men are in my main event, with overness in the mid-eighties, but the match reaction was only 79%. Match quality was fine (98%), so maybe I'll do better as the feud heats up. Still, it's very frustrating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2004 I don't know if the event level matters based on promotion size. But my rank goes. MAIN EVENT 100-91 over UPPER MIDCARD 90-81 over MIDCARD 80-61 over LOWER MIDCARD 60-41 over Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheFranchise 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2004 Damn it, I still can't get a ***** match yet from the Dames. Try running with AJ and Juvi Guerrera, i got constant ***** from that series. Also, Jericho/Daniels, there's LOTS of combo's, you'll get there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DCMaximo 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2004 Yeah, and at least I'll feel like I've earned it. Problem is, all the usual stars like Styles and Jericho are under contract with the WWE and I really want to achieve it with my UDW promotion (currently National 69PI). But I've brought in some talented new blood (TAKA, Super Crazy) and I've got enough established talent (Backseats, Moore, Hart, Hayashi, Paul London-who seemingly must be hired by EWR law) to get the match quality, it's just a case of getting them over enough. BTW, can anyone help me find a decent gimmick for Shannon Moore? He's losing reaction with his current gimmick (mysterious) and it's really tricky to find him a new one. He's a heel, not very menacing and with no charisma. I would choose loner, but he's got a manager (Jamie Koeppe) to do his interviews, so that wouldn't really work. Any help muchly appreciated.

Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2004 I'd give Shannon Moore "cocky" (that sounded dirty). He doesn't have the charisma. or maybe "Dude" or "Cool" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zack Malibu 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2004 Egomaniac. Or if you wanted to make him into kind of the silent, brooding type, why not Ice Man, which I believe stems from Malenko's Ice Man gimmick of "talking in the ring". It worked on Ace Steel with me.

Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted April 15, 2004 I have Steel with legit athlete...works for him. I put Franchise Player on London and damn near killed him. He has creative controll and wouldn't let me change it. So if I used him he'd lose overness...so I had to keep him off tv for months untill I could change it again.

I think Franchise Player only works best when you have high charisma and high stat in at least two of the three abilities, plus maybe Superstar Look. Flik would know more than I.

Flik would know more than I. Nailed it right on. Nicely done Zack. And my fed progress along quite nicely. I'm now half way to making SMALL~! My only concern is there are two National feds, a ton of Cult feds (like 6, and with DAVE dropping down, it'll make like 7), and then TNA and WWE. I'm worried I'll lose my current crop of stars. Thankfully, I've got Edward James, but still. I worry for the sake of Supreme Wrestling Federation. I haven't even gotten any offers for a new job (which I might actually take in an instant). Hopefully, I can make SMALL~! and rake in some dough finally. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest What_ever Report post Posted April 16, 2004 Blah... the one thing this game really needs is the option to not allow your wrestlers to be stolen, or at least lessen it happening. At least with version 4, you can lock up people with written contracts at Regional though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

At least with version 4, you can lock up people with written contracts at Regional though. You can? Is this with an update or something? I was Wildside one time and no one would sign a written deal with me. As for the stealing, it makes it more realistic, so I don't mind it. Makes your rise to the top mean something when you overcome it. Question: Why is it so tough to raise PI when playing as MLW? I put on good shows for cult level, and I still wind up dropping off.

Lightning Flik 0 Report post Posted April 16, 2004 You can get anyone to sign at any point. As long as you are having increased PI and cash flow, you can sign anyone to a written contract. Just has to be Midcard or lower. Uppercard or higher and they'll think themselves to big for your company. By midcard, I mean micard overness. I've managed to sign people to contracts at Small. So it is possible at any level (I'm assuming backyard as well, but I make no profit, so I can't say). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I put on good shows for cult level, and I still wind up dropping off. As I had mentioned previously. If you are midcard or less in overness, you can usually sign them to a written contract. Just sign them to your company first on an open contract, make sure they have high overness, and you'll sign them in most cases. This can also work for uppercards, but not always. If the person who wish to hire onto a company higher than you, usually forget it unless they are absolutely must have. As you'll end up shelling out so much cash, it is nuts. As for the stealing, I'd prefer TEW, because I think people would soon get loyal to me and not leave my ass. I hate that about EWR. Thankfully Jonny C (WLW) and Austin Lee (SW) haven't left my ass for new glory. Because you are competiting (indirectly) against Ring of Honor, Combat Zone Wrestling, and FLI (as if I'm spelling out their whole name). Hence, boost your production values to above what RoH has, and also have your advertising 10% of what you have. It also helps to get a TV show as RoH and CZW both have those. Thus making them "better" than you for that. If you can't get a TV show, go Weekly PPV till you can (and then switch back to regular PPV), as you need to put on something Weekly. Once again, this will mean you will probably have to hire people on permanently, thus you'll have to build up your midcarders and superstars, and pretty much leave any MEs you can't land alone. Also, it wouldn't be a bad thing to have like kick ass shows. Not good shows for cult level. But kick ass. If you have to scrap a match or two to get your more charisamatic stars on to pump up ratings, do so. Just makes you look better in the end. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just work storylines and feuds to your advantage then. Have a brief change in one of the titles to break up the "all-face" run. Seriously, it isn't that bad. When I used to play WWE, I once had every single WWE title on a face. Think about all the titles in the WWE, and then think about what I said. That was challenging, but fun to do. And besides, why is it ok to have an all-heel run, but all-face is frowned upon? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
