Sheamus/Punk poor chemistry


Ouch, brutal.

Yeah, Laurinitis was not very over back then I guess. If you keep putting him in angles with the huge stars, he'll grow, probably. Just make sure the angles are at least five minutes, as I believe they have to be that long to have an effect on momentum and overness (though you probably know that).

Consider hiring some talented indie female workers and trying to build up their overness while building up their current Divas' ring skills at the same time. Or turn the T&A levels up and just use them like less talented Attitude Era divas. Whatever to keep it from being a chore to book them.

Alright looks like TNA wins, which makes me happy because I would rather do that readership concerns not being a problem. Also looks like "hire Glacier" wins which is excellent as well.

Time to refresh myself on what TNA's storylines were in August-October so I can make the transition realistic.

On the plus side with TNA I only need to do like one show to Tom's 4 so this may be a somewhat realistic goal to keep up with him.

Trish and Gail are indeed available. SDR has talent almost equal to Trish in this mod, so she'd be a good pick too. Also all the Knockouts will become available for poaching if their contracts run out before TNA can reach National (if they even can reach National; the entire Main Event scene has various addiction problems that kill their angle/match ratings).

So yeah I guess I wanna do a poll too to everyone who cares about my sideshow booking. Idea is going to be similar to Tom where I start having the current storylines and then steer them off as I see fit. My limit is going to be one hire/fire per month to prevent me from mutilating the show too much talentwise. I'll probably ask user input on those too prevent Daffney vs Glacier from being the main event too quickly.


Now I'm paying attention.

What would you rather me book?
B. TNA

When should I start the booking timeline?
D. Who cares

Who should my first hire/fire be?
Hire: Ultramantis Black
Fire: Hogan

Oh sweet Hogan and Bischoff being tossed out/Hogan's face turn/Sting taking over hasn't happened yet.

For reader benefits current storylines that were going on, and in parenthesis what TNA did with it.

Sting is working to get a match with Hogan the next PPV using Jokeresque mindgames, for control of the company. (Hogan turns good after Sting beats him, Dixie gets her company back and Sting is the authority figure from here on in)
Bully Ray hates Anderson. (Anderson beats him and then is soon never heard from again)
Velvet Sky is doing the "I'm persevere through being bullied" thing. (She wins the title)
Jerry Lynn is interfering in RVD's matches for some reason. (RVD beats Lynn in a match)
Angle vs Roode at the BFG PPV because Roode won the BFG Series (Angle wins only for Roode to win next week on Impact!)

This is probably the perfect PPV to take over for in the last year.

They do, which I didn't even consider when I typed it. I was just thinking "Oh hey, I've done female promotions with no ring talents before, so I can probably do one that actually has ring talent."

To be fair, they should play similar anyway since they're both low intensity entertainment feds. It's just one of them has a focus on sex appeal.

Actually looking at the product settings, it's not really anything in this mod. It's got Traditional at Heavy, Modern at Medium, Mainsteam at Low, and a few Very Lows. High match ratio, but average intensity. Really the intensity seems to be set higher than it should be from what I've seen, but whatever.

Upped match ratio (TV) to 60%
Extended expected match lengths a bit for TV
Changed women's division to integrated (this is totally closer to what TNA does anyway)
Made product definition more "SWERVElike" (basically upped cult so I wouldn't get the "fans want simple gimmicks" message) while keeping the TNA feel there (high Daredevil/Modern and equally rated on performance/popularity I felt were the important TNAish things there)

Looked at pushes, only changed the things that made immediate sense (like Christy Hemme as an announcer instead of an authority figure).

More importantly looked at the ridiculous roster and decided to change my philosophy to one hire + fire per show allowed, but only one per month allowed to not be someone who's been in TNA before.

Won't promise a show tonight but one could happen!

This is something anyone with a serious women's division should do, anyway. The Women's Division push is roughly equivalent to the Lower Midcard push, which really limits what you can do with them.

Yeah me trying to make it more true to TNA didn't have anything to do with that... I was just doing that so I could have a flexible women's division, but I just brought it up because I didn't feel like that was actually changing anything as much as correcting it.

Random notes:

Every match I did got a penalty for low risk content, due to them all being gimmickless singles/tag matches. Time to turn Daredevil down a bit so this doesn't happen, cause last I checked not all of TNA's matches are gimmick matches!
Sting's "gimmick change" to anti-hero got 84 (what's with this guy and giving so much of the roster 'old school face/heel' as their gimmick)
Kendrick's "gimmick change" to eccentric got 88
Daniels's heel turn was a complete success
TNA Impact tapes on Monday in this mod so none of my hires/fires got put through yet. On the PPV, perhaps...!

Raw got 87, Superstars got 65. Yeah, better than Superstars! TNA! TNA! TNA!

Don't expect a great show since I'm trying to transition storylines out now/twist them into my vision. I don't care if you guys don't remember what was happening with TNA it matters to me dammit! Next show will be the PPV where I finish what was in place and start doing what I want to do with it (which I probably setup better with one show than TNA usually does.)

Impact October Week 1:

Pre-show:

Hulk Hogan cuts a promo saying he'll never claim to leave the fans again, brother, and TNA's going to reach new heights, brother! (81) Samoa Joe d. Gunner (63)

SHOWTIME:

Robert Roode is gloating with Fortune about how he overcame all of Kurt Angle's challenges and how the faction didn't implode like Kurt wanted. Immortal comes out and Kurt is about to talk, but then Jarrett says "we'll just see about how well you didn't implode, how about you team up with your beer buddy and face me and Kurt!" Roode accepts, and then he and James Storm talk about Jarrett taking Angle's woman and laugh it up. Kurt glares at Jarrett while Bischoff plays peacemaker. (67)

Styles d. Austin Aries in a match where Tenay and Tazz hype that for some reason the winner gets a title shot of their choice (75) After the match, Styles tells Daniels he's going to go for the Tag Titles and he wants Daniels to be his partner, to prove that they're stronger as a team than trying to one up each other. Daniels agrees as long as AJ will have a warm-up tag match with him tonight against an opponent of Daniels' choice. AJ agrees. (78)

Mickie James and Velvet Sky d. ODB and Jackie while Velvet is empowered from having the Mickie James help her out in defeating the bullies~ (71)

Bully Ray's a bully and Anderson's an ass. There is much yelling. They book each other in matches for warm-ups for their battle at the PPV because everyone has booking power in TNA (72) Mr. Anderson d. Bully's choice Scott Steiner-- after the match Bully uses Steiner's chainmail helmet to beat down Anderson cause he lost his chain somewhere. "HUH?" Steiner disapproves of using his ring gear as a weapon but they calm down. (63)

Kendrick d. Kid Kash to retain the X-Division title (56) RVD looks around backstage and finds something in Jeff Hardy's locker. He looks concerned. (73)

Bully Ray d. Anderson's choice D-Von pretty easily. (65)

AJ Styles and Daniels come to the ring for their match. Their opponents? Angelina Love and Winter! AJ Styles is like "what the hell is this" to Daniels and won't fight "for real" and Winter gets the upper hand, then Daniels tags himself in, obliterates Winter and Love and quickly gets the win. (73) After the match, AJ checks on them, and Daniels waffles him with a chair and cuts a promo about how he made this match explicitly to show how weak AJ is, how he can't go all out if it'd upset anyone and that's why he hasn't been relevant for months. He'll never team with a weakling like AJ! (76)

Mexican America try to light a US flag on fire, Jeff Hardy stumbles out the backstage area and grabs the flag! What a hero! He then fakes throwing it to each side of the audience! RVD rushes out and bails Jeff Hardy out before he gets mauled by Mexican America. (62)

Beer Money d. Angle and Jarrett after Angle nails Jarrett with the Angle slam due to being blinded by... something...? Or maybe he was just shouting he was blind... WHO KNOWS~ (76)

Sting brings out a contract for Hogan, Bischoff, Dixie, and he to sign. If Hogan wins he and Bischoff keep TNA and Sting is fired, if Sting wins Hogan and Bischoff give the company back to Dixie. Hogan and Bischoff read it carefully, then sign, then Sting shrugs and randomly hits Bischoff in the knee with his bat to "liven this contract signing up!" (67)

Overall: 71, Success!

I would suggest that if I could trust myself to keep up with Tom, even doing one show to his four!

Well technically I have Explosion too but it's only 30 minutes so I'm just not going to post those and do them effortlessly.

Also uhhh man TNA's roster is so dumb. I'm pretty sure the roster is like 70% face if you ignore authority figures and such. Expect a lot of TURNS. Also gimmick changes because the gimmicks are almost all generic for whatever reason-- more generic than TNA I mean. (And then on top of that some of them are bad)

Well I would appreciate something ridiculous like that.

I'm just saying most of the roster is "Old School Heel" or "Old School Face" or "Extremist" rather than what they actually are in TNA. That means I'm doing double the gimmick changes as usual cause I'm first correcting gimmicks I don't want to radically change to something that's more fitting, and then on top of that there are my vintage "off the wall" gimmick changes.

I'm pretty sure like 90% of the roster I keep is going to have their gimmick changed in the next month.
