Current Events > Should Andy Kaufman be a manager or new pro wrestler?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Booking a wrestling company with all the dead people. Should I have Andy be a manager of some people or should I have someone train him to be a great in-Ring worker?

---

Both.
Or rather, Andy is a wrestler, and Tony Clifton is his manager.

Thinking about having Danny Hodge train him.

What game is this?

Total Extreme Wrestling 2020

Its a booking simulator. It comes with a fantastic universe on its own, but you can get mods/databases based on real world stuff as well. Like the start of the Monday Night Wars in 1995, or the rise of Hulkimania in the 80s

Im making my own Database, with nothing but dead people. Well, there is 1 thats not dead - Kota Ibushi, and thats for a good reason. Hes going to be my protagonist for a bit while I flesh out the universe.

Over 200 people now, and Ive skipped some

---

Manager that takes bumps every once in awhile, like Heenan.

Oh yeah I'm familiar with TEW, but haven't played in a loooong time. Didn't know they kept releasing new versions.

Make him a manager who wears a Former Intergender Champion shirt. Oh, and have him throw coffee on his protgs opponents to cost them matches.

Working on teams and stables right now

Herb Abrams got his first member, I guess - Lugvid Boega

---

wish I could work on this at work. Its Friday and I get off early. Hopefully this weekend I can finish the whole Database

Its the cross-referencing stuff thats annoying. Tag parters with multiple people, so i have to pick one, or find ones that work with multiple people and put them into a stable. Dick, for example, works with Dusty and Slater, so which one?

...no Freebird Rule?

Yep, I can

What I mean is there are lots of ways to use people and who they can get paired with. Partners and managers. Harley Race could be a manager for Vader, but he can be a worker and managed by Bobby The Brain as well. Vader has nothing to do with Bobby

---

So far a rough draft

Gary Hart -

Bruiser Brody
Buzz Sawyer
Gino Herendez /Chris Adams
Dick Slater

Bobby The Brain -

Nick Bock
King Kong Bundy
Blackjack
Mr Fuji and Mr Saito
Harley

Cap Lou -

Gary Albright
Umaga/Rosey
Yokozuna
Peter Miavia
Rocky Johnson
Brian Adams

Feddie -

Jimmy Snuka
Hercules / Zeus
Volkof
Geoege Steele

Herb -

Dr Death and Gordy
Bam Bam
Vader

Frenchie -

Dino
Earthquake
Luna
Mad Dog

Paul Jones -

Angel Of Death
Ivan Kolof

He should obviously be a wrestler in the woman's division. Make him a female with no sexual preference. Also, make the Inter-Gender Wrestling Champion of the World belt for him to win and never lose and make him the longest belt holder in history.

---

Thought about that as well. I can make his gender Unknown

But everyone is dead, so men and women might just be on equal setting. New Jack Vs Mae Young when?

---

Got the whole weekend now, baby!

Sadly, the Von Erich and Hart Stables will be easy to put together. Today at work I wrote down some storyline ideas that I'm excited to get to. But since I plan on showing this to people, and not just doing it in my own head, I have to finally learn how to write the promos and details into the text box. Should be easy enough, though

If I was REALLY good at video editing and stuff, I might just SHOW to matches in Fire Pro Wrestling World, but I don't know the first thing about editing things like that. Maybe in the future, but I doubt it.

I need to really bust these big stables out, and then see who's left over, and plan more from there. I don't plan on having many more stables than I already have lined up, but it really helps when I can look at a much smaller list of people I have on my roster to make the tag teams and single stars that don't really fit into a stable of workers.

BTW, if anyone here has it, does the Peacock streaming service have a 2x Speed option? Would be nice to watch some shows from the 70s and 80s, but there are some good shows on YouTube, which does have a 2x Speed option

---

If you have a womens division, he should be a wrestler. Otherwise, manager.

---

Almost to a point where it's just busy work. Got over 20 tag teams, and I think around 10 stables. Have them written out on a note paper, need to finish them up and then see what I have left over.

I plan on getting the whole company set up tomorrow, and then I'll start working out some of the "glitches", things like The Dynamite Kid being, "The weakest link," in ANY match. Pretty sure it's because everyone is 19 years old and has zero experience. So I might have to age everyone up a bit. Maybe to 25

---

Any suggestion for people who dont really belong?

Sean OHaire, for example. Whos a good teammate?

---

Alright, almost done. The best thing about having to do this is that I'm learning a lot about some of the older talent that I didn't know.
