WWE 2K24 has made some changes to MyGM mode. I don't love all of them but I try to work my way through them with Paul Heyman's ECW in our recreation of the Monday Night War going up against WCW and WWE. Catch each of these streams live on twitch.tv/primetimepk.

00:00:00All right, hello, hello, hello, welcome.
00:00:21We are continuing on with our MyGM and as you can see, got some, afraid I've got some
00:00:28bad news as this, as this all started going here, so, that's awesome that that happened,
00:00:36so our costs have doubled.
00:00:39All right, we promised Ludwig Kaiser two weeks of rest, we're in third, I seem to recall
00:00:45we weren't doing great, but we were starting to build some momentum, at least that's what
00:00:49I'm, I was doing.
00:00:50Oh right, I remember this, the, the thing came up where it was like, yeah, nope, tiffy
00:00:56time has not been missed.
00:00:57It's just, just primetime time right now.
00:01:04This thing annoyed me, ensure that Kaiser cuts a promo this week, make sure that Kaiser
00:01:08gets two weeks rest.
00:01:10This game hates me, is what I'm, what I'm getting at, basically, so, let's see, what,
00:01:16is there anything, all right, I wanted, because this was going pretty well for us.
00:01:24Primetime definitely greater than tiffy time, absolutely 100% accurate, I don't think anyone
00:01:27else would argue with that.
00:01:28Book 10 shows that the tag team called out, all right, so we can get there, that one,
00:01:32we can do that easily.
00:01:34Change the role of 10 superstars, only done that twice, spend 1 million or more on shows.
00:01:40I haven't done that yet, I was assuming I had, but all right.
00:01:47High time for some primetime, yeah, I love that, great, see, I need to hire you guys
00:01:51for my marketing team, build this, build this all up.
00:01:57Book 10 shows with a call-out promo, I've only done seven, geez, I need to step my game
00:02:02up with some of these, all right, what all do we got going on right now?
00:02:09Stax is our most popular superstar, so that, that can't be an issue, oh, right, we have
00:02:13Tony D'Angelo is our champ champ right now, with no rivalry to speak of, so that's, can't
00:02:22be doing that, okay, but he is beat to shit, so let's do a call-out promo, figure out who
00:02:31he's gonna be feuding with here, all right, we got two guys who are hurt, and no one who
00:02:37meshes with him well, perfect, oh, he's a specialist, so he can go with anyone, all
00:02:41right, well, Seamus is also beat to shit, but Seamus would seem like our next logical
00:02:48contender here, well, no, we got Kofi, Kofi's fine, Kofi's ready to go, he doesn't have
00:02:54a rivalry, Tony D'Angelo against Kofi Kingston for our championship, that's what we're doing,
00:03:02Stax is also a little beat up, so he can just rest, Kofi, we'll see if we need Kofi, but
00:03:08we need Ray against iJack, both guys feeling okay, so we'll make that a, oh, right, these
00:03:16things cost extra this week, all right, well, this'll just be a boring-ass match, then,
00:03:24oh man, that video, deeds of Kofi not, like, the Shawn Michaels, like, hey, didn't he used
00:03:32to be Jamaican, and his, what, response was one of my absolute favorite things ever, that
00:03:39was so funny, also, Kofi Kingston, one of the best guests we had on Combat Central,
00:03:46on Sportsnet 960, all right, Shinsuke needs some, do we have anyone who meshes with, oh,
00:03:53yeah, it was Triple H calling him out, my mistake, my mistake, okay, Shinsuke meshes
00:03:58well with Seamus, did we do that, no, okay, well, we need to get Seamus off of there,
00:04:04so that can be another call out that we do, let's get Shin to call out, call out Seamus,
00:04:11that'll work, that'll work, but then what else do we have, we're running out of guys
00:04:17here, because we had three dudes hurt, we can't use him, okay, let's go to our power
00:04:25cards and see if we can help heal some of these guys, because this is insane, immediately
00:04:30gain you 10 talent scout points, that's great, injury rehab, there we go, reduces superstar
00:04:35injury by three weeks, let's put it on, because these guys legitimately need breaks, we're
00:04:42not going to use them this week anyway, so let's let them build back up, but let's put
00:04:48it on AJ, get him back, any others, injury rehab, hmm, it is interesting to try to do
00:04:58that again, oh, man, people going after Seamus' physique is so ridiculous, like, A, he's probably
00:05:07in better shape than 100% of the people who are going after him, and B, like he said on
00:05:11social media, like, he was coming back from an injury, like, let's give the guy a break,
00:05:16shall we, that this is, it was absurd, absurd that people were going in on him like that,
00:05:21I hated that, all right, we're going to need to sign some people here, because we have
00:05:26like no one right now, we have Cruz del Toro, who can do some stuff, so we're going to need
00:05:31a giant, we're going to need a giant who is a bad guy, right, yeah, all right, talent
00:05:40scouts, which I still stand by, I hate, okay, we will need it to be a dude, we will need
00:05:47it to be a bad guy, and we will need it to be a big dude, where are we at here, how much
00:05:57money, we have 139, we're not spending a ton this week, hey, Toxic, how's it going, welcome,
00:06:04let's go icons, yeah, 25 grand, that feels like a good number we can spend, please work,
00:06:11oh my gosh, my favorite heel of all time, unable to find search criteria, you've been
00:06:17refunded, okay, should we try to go up a level then, legend, 50, ah, 50 grand is too much,
00:06:22let's go renowned stars, okay, we got something here, we got something here, 63, end of the
00:06:31season, 61, end of the season, 45, end of the season, well, I think we can accomplish
00:06:35what we need to with Veer Mahan, so let's bring in Veer, sign talent, let's roll, just
00:06:43patching together a show here, baby, ah, man, favorite heel of all time, like the cop-out
00:06:51answer is Bret Hart's heel run for people in the states, as like the all Canadian thing,
00:07:00like that was just such a great, amazing gimmick, but other than that, favorite heel
00:07:07of all time, like I love the four horsemen, that group was tremendous, so they would definitely
00:07:16be up there, but that is a really good question, you know what, like heel, heel group ends
00:07:23up getting, or heel person, I guess, ends up getting kind of like not shit on, but doesn't
00:07:31get the recognition, is that like 2000, or post attitude era, triple H, and I get it
00:07:38was frustrating when he was like not putting over talent and all of that, I think he got
00:07:45a bad rep for that, but I really liked how he was so focused on just give me the world
00:07:52title, like the most important thing in my life is the world heavyweight championship,
00:07:57so give me that, and that's all I want to focus on, and he would stop at nothing to
00:08:02get it, I loved it, loved it, loved it, loved it, so that is one that I think should get
00:08:08a bit more credit, what about you guys, let me know in the chat there, answering toxic
00:08:12question, favorite heel of all time, oh, heel, heel Miz when he won the title, so good, okay,
00:08:20so we are still struggling a little bit here, I mean we got Kofi, we don't want him, like
00:08:28we got the call out there, so hopefully that works, so let's go sign another one of those
00:08:32giants that are just up there right now, let's go, is this going to be too expensive for
00:08:39us though, 61 is quite a bit, we haven't really spent anything yet, but we just, we need bodies
00:08:46in here right now, so let's go for it, we are going to have to figure out the rest of
00:08:52the show, Kofi and Ivar, let's do it, lock them in, let's just see if, let's do call
00:09:07out promo, Kaiser on Ricochet, I know he said he wanted a break, but maybe him not wrestling
00:09:13will be break enough, and then, fuck, they are just both so banged up, but we just need
00:09:21to do something, so let's do it, oh, we got a Bailey spawning, come on in, there you go,
00:09:31see you can see her a little bit better now that I'm wearing a blue jays jersey, alright,
00:09:34well look at this, it is mayonnaise bland in terms of singles match, singles match, singles
00:09:41match, singles match, singles match, but we got some popular people on this show, we
00:09:47got some call outs, setting some shit up, so you know what, we are in an okay spot,
00:09:53and just, well no, let's go show logistics first here, so yeah, it is going to be that
00:10:01one, yeah, I hate how they set up the show logistics on this game, oh whoops, nope, don't
00:10:09want to do that, okay, so show logistics are good, so let's make this, I know it will
00:10:15be double the cost, but there, we are going to have $4,000 left at the end of this, but
00:10:20we got a marquee match for our main event, building up our rivalry, our champ is making
00:10:24a call out, what more could you possibly want, I mean probably a lot, but still, let's roll
00:10:32with it, yes, confirm booking, your claw got stuck in my jersey, all right, Cruz del
00:10:46Toro, Veer Mohan, main event anywhere in the country, crowd not loving it, crowd is not
00:10:51loving it, Veer, disappointing match, but they created a rivalry, fantastic, got this
00:10:59rivalry going at least, okay, crowd not into this either, but Kofie gets the win, good
00:11:06match, okay, good, all right, people seem to be into that, didn't start a thing, but
00:11:12that is okay, and then Stacks against Sheamus, I would hope Sheamus gets the win there, good
00:11:20match again, okay, that rivalry grows, fantastic, LWO getting the win in an amazing match, oh
00:11:36man, that's actually a really good show from WCW, I like that one a lot, one of the Creed
00:11:46brothers is their world champion right now, good grief, oh, no, I want her to sim the
00:11:50whole thing, well, Cameron Grimes getting a big win on Raw in an okay match, good, all
00:12:00right, how we do, poor opener, yeah, I know, my opening has always been bad, what, all
00:12:08right, how do we do, gained 32,000 fans, I feel like that's all right, oh, no, it's
00:12:15not, okay, well, we gained on Raw, there we go, and we earned a trophy, look at us go,
00:12:25that injury rehab one is key, actually, how are we number one, oh, because we have a Hall
00:12:33of Fame trophy, ha, eat our dust, WCW and ECW, oh, we only have three weeks till WrestleMania,
00:12:43shit, I feel like I'm the fall guy every week, you've been here a week, earned a shot at
00:12:54the world title, sorry, Ray, not going to happen, okay, so, we have three weeks to build
00:13:04up to WrestleMania, Kaiser, that worked, excellent, so, we have at least one last man standing
00:13:11match this week, yeesh, okay, God, we need everyone to just kind of heal up here, but
00:13:30we got some more money, so, that's good, there can only be one, randomly book last man standing
00:13:37match will receive a higher than normal rating, oh, interesting, I mean, if we're going to
00:13:40do that anyway, let's go, retain most of your fans this week, kind of feel like we
00:13:50need to, ah, we didn't really build a whole lot last week, that's fine, select a contracted
00:13:54superstar on your brand to become a permanent superstar for your brand, ah, well, we'll
00:13:58do that next year, yeah, health spa is what we need here, and we need it on our world
00:14:07champion, no, Miz is definitely not normally a babyface, I mean, he is right now, but definitely
00:14:15not normally a babyface, and his heel run in, what was that, WrestleMania 27, was spectacular,
00:14:25I wanted to get the hello, I'm awesome shirt, I wanted all of that, I thought he was, like,
00:14:31one of the best things, and I thought it really was a little bit too bad, that, um,
00:14:37it didn't really work, oh, Dijak left, so, oh, shit, Rey could have got a thing there,
00:14:45hmm, no, well, um, alright, god, like, yeah, Stacks, I don't feel like Stacks is going
00:14:55to be on WrestleMania, so Stacks has to just keep on coming out here, and getting the fuck
00:14:59kicked out of him every week, um, I don't want to put Stacks against Ivar in our main
00:15:05event, I'm not doing that, we have one four-star thing, this is not great, okay, so, we need,
00:15:18we need to get these promos going here, Kofi, call out Tony DeAngelo, perfect, excellent,
00:15:24good, love it, love to see it, uh, so, who works for AJ, he's a specialist, so, anybody,
00:15:32alright, let's do a, since the call out didn't work with Shinsuke and, uh, and Sheamus last week,
00:15:43yeah, we'll do Shinsuke calling out AJ, Rey Mysterio in the main event against
00:15:58Veer Mahan, and it'll be a Last Man Standing match, you'll love to see it,
00:16:06now, let's put that power card on, there we go, uh, oh, yeah, yeah, he was, um, the Miz,
00:16:23like, that, that first character was so annoying, but as it built up, him and Alex Reilly, I loved
00:16:29those guys, uh, but again, love to hate them, right, like, that, that was the big thing,
00:16:34is that they were just, they were so effective at what they did, you just loved to hate them,
00:16:37what did you think of the Canucks Oilers game yesterday, holy balls was that fun, right,
00:16:45like, that, that, that whole game was just an absolute blast, um, and I think with,
00:16:52with Vancouver, I, I think that was where their inexperience kind of came in a little bit,
00:16:58um, where they, like, their start, anyway, they didn't know how to get back up to that
00:17:07playoff intensity, and the Oilers, I thought were dictating that game, and I, I thought that,
00:17:14like, watching that game, I said to my wife, like, oh, this, like, honestly, this kind of
00:17:18feels over already, because it was just, it was Edmonton style that they were playing,
00:17:23and that's a big problem for, um, for, for the Canucks, but credit Vancouver,
00:17:30they got it back going their way, and it was their depth guys doing it, right, like,
00:17:32Garland looked great, Joshua looked great, I know he has been a bit of a hot button there,
00:17:37but Elias Lindholm looked pretty good as well, so I, I thought that they had some real good depth,
00:17:43and they were able to survive a lot, I think, I still think it's going to be a good long series,
00:17:49but that was, that was a really, really impressive win from Edmonton,
00:17:52or from Vancouver, sorry, that I honestly didn't know they had in them.
00:17:59Um, man, all our guys are just so beat up, eh?
00:18:05Well, let's go self-promo, we gotta get, ah, Ricochet just sucks at promos, though.
00:18:09Okay, we need some more, need some more bodies.
00:18:12Um, let's go, yeah, establish stars, need them to be guys.
00:18:21Let's just go, we won't worry about styles or anything right now.
00:18:25Ooh, okay, we got a couple of interesting ones here.
00:18:29We can work with both of these, actually.
00:18:32Let's bring in Carmelo Hayes.
00:18:36Let's do that, yeah, sign talent.
00:18:39Let's do that, yeah, sign talent.
00:18:41And I love me some Solo Sokoa, so let's just do that.
00:18:47There, it's not a perfect match, but it works, I think.
00:18:50Um, let's put Solo in there, does he, like, super match up with anyone?
00:18:55Not really, but that is okay.
00:18:58Um, I mean, yeah, let's just do that.
00:19:06I don't love that as the, nope.
00:19:09Or is that me vacating it?
00:19:10Yeah, clear this match, yeah.
00:19:11Let's put that second from the top.
00:19:17And now for our opener, we still really need one more.
00:19:26Can we, first off, can we do a call out here?
00:19:31Seamus and Gunther.
00:19:33We're not getting, like, rivalry is on pause, so that is good.
00:19:37Uh, and now we need one more.
00:19:39I mean, realistically, we need two more, right?
00:19:42Like, I just don't want to wear Ricochet out too much.
00:19:47Uh, yeah, so Deeds, it does kind of look like, um, Solo has taken over the bloodline,
00:19:53but they're making it very clear that this was not Roman's choice,
00:19:57and he's kind of taking it over by force.
00:20:00So, I think there are a few interesting ways they can go with that now.
00:20:05Um, with, like, again, some kind of a civil war type of a thing.
00:20:09Um, but there are definitely some intriguing ways they can go with Solo now.
00:20:14He has the Gorillas of Destiny with him, and I think that he can really,
00:20:20really build up, um, a pretty strong faction.
00:20:23He was the one who I was saying they needed to build around anyway,
00:20:26and yeah, I think that this is kind of building up to,
00:20:31to, like, Solo's bloodline versus Roman's bloodline.
00:20:37And I wonder if as we get closer to Wrestlemania,
00:20:40it turns out that it is Solo's bloodline by way of The Rock,
00:20:44and he comes in and does that.
00:20:46So, I, that is my prediction for how it goes right now,
00:20:50but it's still in its infancy, and it is so much fun at this point.
00:20:55So, I think that there is a lot of reason to be really excited about this.
00:20:59Okay, again, we're not peaking for Mania at exactly the right time,
00:21:02but we're, we're getting there.
00:21:05We're getting there.
00:21:11I think this is gonna be a good show, though.
00:21:12I think it's gonna get us something.
00:21:18Giovanni Vinci getting the win.
00:21:20Mediocre!
00:21:21How could those two have a mediocre match?
00:21:23All right, that's building to level two.
00:21:26We like that.
00:21:29Ivar continues to stay hot.
00:21:33Disappointing match.
00:21:35And Stax is hurt.
00:21:36We kind of knew that going in.
00:21:37Stax is our sacrificial lamb.
00:21:39Shinsuke cannot get a, a feud to stick to save his life.
00:21:46Solo gets the win.
00:21:47Disappointing.
00:21:47Okay, so this was not the show I thought it was gonna be.
00:21:51And the promo doesn't stick either.
00:21:52God damn.
00:21:55Oh, we got Bayley again.
00:21:57Classic match.
00:21:58Okay, well, that's good.
00:21:59And Mysterio against Veer.
00:22:01Works for me.
00:22:02If we're having classic matches, then by all means, you guys go for it.
00:22:12Good booking.
00:22:13Yeah, there we go.
00:22:14Whew, that final match crushed.
00:22:18Ah, stuck at 32,000 fans.
00:22:20And we only made 85 grand.
00:22:23Oh, that's not ideal.
00:22:25All right, but, I mean,
00:22:26I mean, those two gained on us a little bit, but not by as much.
00:22:36And we're still in first.
00:22:38Inexplicably.
00:22:40Two weeks to WrestleMania.
00:22:42We can do this.
00:22:47Uh, yeah, we can do that.
00:22:48Fine.
00:22:50Uh, hey boss, I've been talking with Ray a lot lately.
00:22:53It's a great idea.
00:22:53We should tag team up.
00:22:54I think we'd actually make an awesome tag team.
00:22:57Uh, yeah, sure.
00:22:58Let's do that.
00:23:03At least one Hell in a Cell match this week.
00:23:05Are you trying to kill my team?
00:23:08Uh, okay.
00:23:09I can't afford what you are asking me to do.
00:23:12Well, I couldn't afford commercial ads, I guess.
00:23:14But let's see if we can do that first.
00:23:16We gotta build this thing up.
00:23:18All right.
00:23:19Hell in a Cell match.
00:23:25Fuck it, man.
00:23:25Let's do it.
00:23:26Hell in a Cell.
00:23:33Oh, my cat is back here rustling with papers and scared the crap out of me.
00:23:38Uh, okay.
00:23:39Hell in a Cell match.
00:23:40Opening the show.
00:23:42Solo Sokoa against Carmelo Hayes.
00:23:47Let's do it.
00:23:49Because if these guys get hurt, I'm okay with it.
00:23:54Main event.
00:23:57Okay, let's do Kofi against Veer.
00:24:04And we will have Tony D'Angelo run it on Kofi.
00:24:09Try to get this thing built up a little bit.
00:24:12Earlier in the night, we will have the callout.
00:24:16We will get our...
00:24:17Oh, we can't.
00:24:17Can't do that.
00:24:18Okay, that's fine.
00:24:20Makes sense.
00:24:21Makes sense.
00:24:22Uh, we do need to get some callouts in here, though.
00:24:26What else?
00:24:26We need an AJ and Ray in a tag team match.
00:24:32How are they stamina-wise?
00:24:33Ah, AJ needs a week.
00:24:34Yeah, we're not gonna do AJ.
00:24:36Not gonna do it right now.
00:24:39Do we have another health spa here?
00:24:43No, eh?
00:24:45That's okay.
00:24:45That's okay.
00:24:49Uh, pre-match physio.
00:24:50Reduces the probability of an injury.
00:24:52Okay, let's do that.
00:24:56Yeah.
00:24:58Hopefully that works.
00:25:05Uh...
00:25:07All right, yeah, let's do this.
00:25:10Let's use it.
00:25:11We're closest to...
00:25:12Ah, Ra's been picking on us.
00:25:14Let's go with that.
00:25:24Just throw a bunch at him right now.
00:25:27Okay, that's okay.
00:25:28That makes sense.
00:25:29Um, all right.
00:25:31So, we want a tag team match.
00:25:34Hopefully he doesn't kill them.
00:25:35Ray and AJ.
00:25:38Uh, Ray is feuding with...
00:25:41Someone who's already in a match.
00:25:42Oh, Fear, right.
00:25:44Eh.
00:25:52Oh, Bravo with the solo line.
00:25:53That's fantastic.
00:25:54Sorry if I missed that earlier.
00:25:57That is really good.
00:25:57Yeah, um, I...
00:25:59Yeah, I wonder...
00:26:00Because I think Roman, Jimmy, and Jay...
00:26:04As the bloodline, per se.
00:26:07Um, as a babyface group.
00:26:10Like, they get together.
00:26:11Like, yes, I know we've been awful to each other.
00:26:12But goddammit, I love you.
00:26:14Um, I think that has some real life to it.
00:26:18And I think that would create something really, really cool.
00:26:22Excuse me.
00:26:22So, I think that is honestly the way to go.
00:26:25In this particular case.
00:26:27Um, and then, like, set it up for war games.
00:26:29Like, uh, or even for Wrestlemania.
00:26:32Um, fuck two war games and Wrestlemania.
00:26:34They probably won't do that, because that's two rings.
00:26:36Um, but, like, on one side, it's Rock with Solo, Gods of, uh, or Gorillas of Destiny.
00:26:41On the other side, it's Roman, the Usos, and Jacob Fatu, who is rumored to be coming in.
00:26:49Um, all right.
00:26:50So, this tag just has to be against anybody, hey?
00:26:52Let's like, let's put Shin in here.
00:26:56And Giovanni Vinci.
00:26:59Classic match.
00:27:00Main event anywhere in the country.
00:27:02Uh, okay.
00:27:04Sheamus needs a dance partner for, uh, for Wrestlemania.
00:27:08So, let's do another call out and hope it works on Shinsuke Nakamura.
00:27:16Um, AJ's a specialist, right?
00:27:18Yeah, so, like, we just need anyone to wrestle him at Mania.
00:27:25Let's go renowned stars.
00:27:27Oh, you know what?
00:27:27Let's, let's spend a little bit.
00:27:29Let's go icons.
00:27:30Has to be a dude.
00:27:32Has to be a bad guy.
00:27:34But let's roll with it.
00:27:34See what we got.
00:27:38Ah, I meant bad guy.
00:27:40Not that, that's the wrong one.
00:27:42Um, fuck it, there's some good ones on here, too.
00:27:46We can do Bray.
00:27:52Oh, dude, that would be sweet.
00:27:54Rock doing, you know what?
00:27:55That's honestly better.
00:27:56I mean, that's certainly better than Jacob Fautou.
00:27:58Oh, I like that.
00:27:59That's a really good one there, dudes.
00:28:00That is, bravo on that.
00:28:02Really good.
00:28:06All right.
00:28:09So, we need now a roll change.
00:28:13With Bray.
00:28:16And I don't suppose I can do two in one night, hey?
00:28:18No, okay.
00:28:20So, then, can we do interference?
00:28:23And can we use Bray?
00:28:24No, we cannot.
00:28:25Okay.
00:28:27Boy, that is, uh...
00:28:29All for motor roads, you're right.
00:28:30All of it.
00:28:31Um, boy, that promo thing is really limiting.
00:28:34Okay, and now, we only have but so many options.
00:28:40And I really don't want to hurt anyone in this.
00:28:47All right, we need to sign another one of those guys.
00:28:53Ah, we are so limited in our spending right now, though.
00:28:56And I don't want to use one of these jobbers, just out of principle.
00:29:03Yeah, let's bring in R-Truth for a week.
00:29:20Oh, promised?
00:29:22Shamus, a rematch with AJ for the television championship.
00:29:25I do not remember that at all.
00:29:31Oops.
00:29:32Uh, well, that'll be the...
00:29:33That will get them to break it all up.
00:29:36Uh, yeah.
00:29:37So, Bo Dallas, uh, he's not gonna be taking over The Fiend.
00:29:40He's going to be Uncle Howdy.
00:29:43Um...
00:29:46So, yeah, that's what they're gonna do with that.
00:29:51Yeah, yeah, no, all good.
00:29:56Um, the rumor right now is that it'll be Uncle Howdy leading a group of six.
00:30:02Um, with Nikki Cross, Alexa Bliss, Dexter Loomis, Eric Rowan, and Joe Gacy,
00:30:08along with Uncle Howdy.
00:30:09And that's gonna be the Wyatt Six, is what they're gonna call it.
00:30:15All right, and...
00:30:16Yeah, let's do that.
00:30:17Let's just do a ricochet self-promo.
00:30:20Oh, we're over!
00:30:24Um...
00:30:32There.
00:30:33It works.
00:30:34Boy, yeah.
00:30:34Once again, we're not exactly peaking.
00:30:36Ahem, sorry.
00:30:38Toward Wrestlemania.
00:30:42We gotta be close to the end.
00:30:44We gotta be close to that call-out one, though, right?
00:30:48Like, not the tag-team one, but...
00:30:53Uh...
00:30:55Oh, figured that was close.
00:30:57All right, so yeah, this should get us another Hall of Fame trophy, so that's sweet.
00:31:04All right, here we go.
00:31:05Let's load it up.
00:31:08Yeah, the new Wyatt Family thing I think will be really interesting.
00:31:10I'm worried about it a little bit.
00:31:12Um, but I do think with this new group, it's really interesting.
00:31:21All right, Hell in a Cell opens the show.
00:31:26Solo keeps it going.
00:31:28And a mediocre...
00:31:29Mediocre Hell in a Cell, really?
00:31:31Okay, we finally got a rivalry for Sheamus.
00:31:37Ring that bell.
00:31:43All right, that tag-team gets the job done.
00:31:49That rivalry is not going to be built upon ever.
00:31:58Okay, Kofi gets the win.
00:32:00Rivalry with Tony D-Grows.
00:32:03That's okay, that's what we wanted to accomplish.
00:32:05Good booking!
00:32:06There we go.
00:32:07Just make sure the whole show sucks, and you'll be fine.
00:32:12No one got hurt, and we're a week away from WrestleMania.
00:32:16Still only 38,000 fans, not great.
00:32:19But we only lost to WCW by a thousand there.
00:32:22And we kicked the shit out of Raw.
00:32:24And we got another trophy!
00:32:26Ooh, I like that though.
00:32:28Add four weeks of contract.
00:32:30Love that too!
00:32:34Ah, those other shows got trophies too, god damn it.
00:32:37Good thing we got another one, though.
00:32:40My time with ECW is coming to an end this week.
00:32:45Uh, yeah.
00:32:46Yeah, it's been a nice week.
00:32:49And I hope you guys enjoyed it.
00:32:50My time with ECW is coming to an end this week.
00:32:54Uh, yeah.
00:33:01Do it.
00:33:07Yeah, you guys crushed it. Excellent work. Phenomenal job.
00:33:12You've had me benched for a while, reeling up back in the ring.
00:33:15Uh...
00:33:21How about cutting a promo instead?
00:33:24Yeah, yeah, yeah. You'll be back in the ring for Wrestle-fucking-mania.
00:33:28Uh, as our champion. Yes.
00:33:35All right, any more of these that we're close to? Not really, eh?
00:33:39Oh, that would have been an easy one. Why didn't we do that?
00:33:45Okay, so...
00:33:48Tony D'Angelo needs to cut that. We need to get that to level four for Wrestle-mania. Let's do it.
00:33:52We need a call-out promo.
00:33:54Um...
00:33:55We are going to have Bray call out AJ.
00:34:01Did that say AJ? Oh, no, he was in a tag team feud. That's fine.
00:34:04Okay, those are our two biggest things right now.
00:34:07And now, Kofi...
00:34:11Yeah, we're resting you. We're resting you.
00:34:17Uh, oh boy. A bunch of our guys need some rest this week going into Mania.
00:34:22Give me a health bar. Ah, damn. Okay.
00:34:27Uh, first off, any of these that we can, uh...
00:34:31No, let's throw this at Raw. There we go. Take that.
00:34:38Oh, and we want to do this one. Yes.
00:34:47Ensure your least popular available specialist is in a match this week. You got it, dude.
00:34:52Uh, who is our least popular available specialist?
00:34:59Ludwig Geiser. Oh, but we need him to stay healthier. God damn it.
00:35:06Do we have a pre-match physio card?
00:35:10I feel like we do. No, we don't. Shit. Okay.
00:35:13Okay. Well, we have an injury rehab card, so if he gets hurt, we can just use that.
00:35:20So let's go Kaiser.
00:35:24Uh, who isn't in a thing right now that kind of just needs... or who can work, basically?
00:35:31Sure, let's do that.
00:35:33Um, interference. Is Stax healthy?
00:35:37No, Stax is still out. All right.
00:35:39Uh, so then we'll get Ricochet to run in.
00:35:42Boom. Let's do it.
00:35:58Man, I still haven't brought myself to watch the documentary, but I've seen enough of it on social media that all of that stuff is just
00:36:07heart-wrenching.
00:36:10Um, man, I wish we had
00:36:13Gunther of... Oh, right. We were gonna do... That's what we were gonna do. Right. Okay. I'm remembering now. We're getting it back.
00:36:19Uh...
00:36:21Against Seamus. Title on the line, and we're gonna have interference, and Shinsuke is gonna run in and cost...
00:36:30Yeah, I don't rivalry on cooldown. I don't care. Um, and cost Seamus.
00:36:39And we are gonna go buy that other power card for injury rehab, because I feel like people are getting hurt on this show.
00:36:47But we're just about through it. We're just about at the end. We can see the finish line.
00:36:55We need another cruiserweight that we can pair up with Gunther.
00:37:04Uh, let's just go Icon.
00:37:06Icon.
00:37:08It needs to be a guy. It needs to be a good guy, and it needs to be a cruiser.
00:37:20Jay Uso's a cruiserweight? Okay.
00:37:24Now let's do Sammy. Let's do it.
00:37:28Bring it on home.
00:37:31You guys go in the opener. Let's see if we can, uh, get a rivalry out of this right at the end.
00:37:37Then...
00:37:45You guys are just our sacrificial lambs to go out and get the shit kicked out of you, um, in a tables match.
00:37:54This is like the old WWECW, where, uh, it was just, oh yeah, uh, Morrison...
00:38:01Wait, is AJ our world champ, or our television champ? He's just the television champ, right?
00:38:08Or was I screwing that up the whole time?
00:38:12Yeah, that's the ECW world title. Okay.
00:38:15Um, but yeah, they had Punk and Morrison go out every week and wrestle, and like every main event and every title match for forever.
00:38:23That was them. I will always remember that with those guys.
00:38:27All right, call out promo.
00:38:31All right, so we're not exactly trusting Veer with that.
00:38:40Yeah, let's have Kofi, oh no, that one, we're hoping to accomplish that with that. Uh, so let's...
00:38:49Yeah, it doesn't get him the full rest that we want, but that's okay. It'll get him to mania anyway.
00:38:56All right, that's a show. That's an all right show, actually.
00:39:01All right.
00:39:05Yeah, yeah, that'll do. That'll do.
00:39:18Sorry about drinking it all your ear. Gunther Sammy, give me a rivalry. Ah, damn.
00:39:25Well, that'll probably be the mania match anyway.
00:39:27No one get hurt, no one get hurt, no one get hurt, no one get hurt.
00:39:32Didn't get hurt. Okay. God damn it, that didn't work?
00:39:40Our call outs have not been working.
00:39:43Oh, this one, the rivalry grows. Those two guys are dead, probably.
00:39:50Oh, the crowd still loves it, though. Sheamus wins!
00:39:54Oh!
00:39:55Well, look at that. Now we have a title match rivalry for Wrestlemania.
00:40:00Brilliant. Brilliant booking on my part. What a show.
00:40:04Really do have the brain of a genius here.
00:40:09Good booking, yeah. No, I know. You don't have to tell me twice.
00:40:17All right, 43,000 fans. Hey, look at us grow. Oh, we beat WCW and Raw.
00:40:26Cool.
00:40:32Still winning.
00:40:34And it's Wrestlemania.
00:40:39Yeah, you got it, man.
00:40:47Carmelo Hayes wants on Wrestlemania. Don't book your most popular cruiser.
00:40:50I'm not going to not book my most popular fuck-all at Wrestlemania, so...
00:40:55Eat it.
00:40:57All right, show logistics. Yes, we're going to go at the Wrestlemania arena. That is fine.
00:41:07All right, here we go. Our main event.
00:41:14I'm not great. He is my champ, right? Is there a place I can check that?
00:41:19No, he's my champ. He's showing up in the picture every week. I'm overthinking it. I'm panicking. I don't need to.
00:41:24Okay, that versus that.
00:41:27And these guys, they can all beat the hell out of each other for all I care now. Which one's more...
00:41:33cost-effective?
00:41:35This one.
00:41:37Perfect. Yeah, title's on the line.
00:41:41And in our opener,
00:41:43Sheamus against Nakamura for the championship.
00:41:47Booyakasha.
00:41:50And now let's just build from there.
00:41:53Uh, what's our next biggest rivalry? Oh, yeah, Ludwig against, uh, him. Tables. Oh, falls count anywhere. It's only 10 grand. Let's do it.
00:42:06Uh, okay, so you guys are next, I guess.
00:42:11You guys have just been beating the hell out of each other, so you can have just a match.
00:42:15Uh...
00:42:18Mm. If that's gonna be...
00:42:22Yeah, I shouldn't put that falls count anywhere, because that might overshadow the other thing.
00:42:28So let's put that falls count anywhere. Make sure we have a good opening, good closing.
00:42:34Um...
00:42:36And then, yeah, Rey Mysterio against Veer Mahan. That can be our tables match.
00:42:41And then...
00:42:44We'll build up some stories now. Look at this, we actually have depth we can use. My goodness!
00:42:51Call out promo at Wrestlemania. Let's do it. Call them out. Talk yo shit.
00:43:03Yeah, let's get some of our most popular people on this show.
00:43:07Yeah, let's get some of our most popular people on this show. Why not? I don't care if you suck at calling people out.
00:43:15Yeah, do it.
00:43:17Actually, you know what? Let's, uh, let's get rid of that one, because that's, that's back-to-back really bad promos.
00:43:21We don't want to do that.
00:43:23But Sami Zayn can call out Gunther.
00:43:26Get us ready for the next
00:43:28season, and self promo, we'll get, uh, we'll get Bray Wyatt out there.
00:43:33Yeah.
00:43:35All right, you know what? It's a lot of singles matches. Um, but I kind of like it. I'm kind of digging it.
00:43:45Took us, like I said, took us to the final thing
00:43:48to get us to where we wanted to get to, but we got there.
00:43:51And we have, what is that, 22 grand to play around with? Can we make some of these other matches fun?
00:43:56Yeah, let's do it.
00:43:59It's, it's Wrestlemania, baby. Let's bankrupt ourselves. Let's go.
00:44:03Oh, and we got these things, right.
00:44:06Uh, yeah, let's do that.
00:44:10Um, what else? No.
00:44:16Yeah, we, we got a tables match. Let's do that. Let's just
00:44:20fire this thing up.
00:44:22Let's do that. Let's just fire this whole thing going. Uh, we don't have, do we have anyone injured right now? No, okay.
00:44:35Oh, who do we want to shoot to the moon here? Oh, we got to get Gunther up and running again.
00:44:44Um, all right, I think that's it.
00:44:47Yep, and this is Wrestlemania
00:44:51for ECW.
00:44:57I'm interested to see what, I've never finished
00:44:59one on here before, so I'm interested to see what they do after this.
00:45:02And I didn't finish it on the last one either, so
00:45:05I think we only did one year, either way. Oh, Shinsuke Nakamura, new TV champion in a classic. Sheamus died.
00:45:12Oh, and a great, great call-out.
00:45:16First normal match these two have had. Solo is just mopping the floor with him in these matches.
00:45:23All right, weak promo, that's okay. These two are going to steal the show back.
00:45:29Legendary match. Oh, they killed, I should have put them first.
00:45:35Oh, they killed, I should have put them first.
00:45:37Legendary match. Oh, they killed, I should have put them first.
00:45:45Ludwig Kaiser.
00:45:48Completes the rivalry in an amazing match.
00:45:51Might put Ludwig and, uh, Gunther as the tag champions. Oh, we have all of Imperium here. What am I doing?
00:45:57Oh, the crowd's into it. Hell in a cell. Kofi! Kofi mania!
00:46:07WCW, it's weak. It's weak WCW for Wrestlemania.
00:46:13Raw at least put the title on. Goddamn.
00:46:17Amazing booking. Thank you. Look at that! What a show!
00:46:29231,000 fans, let's go!
00:46:31Oh!
00:46:35Oh, we whooped them!
00:46:39Oh, yeah!
00:46:41ECW bringing it at Wrestlemania, and we finish in first. And you know what? We were pretty close fan-wise.
00:46:51Slammy awards, okay.
00:46:55Welcome to the WWE Slammy Awards. At the end of each season,
00:46:57you'll get a chance to celebrate everyone's accomplishments and receive your own Slammy Award. Okay.
00:47:02Most steel cage matches, that's how we roll.
00:47:05Most superstars traded, okay.
00:47:07Uh, most call-out promos. I'm surprised they beat us, but that's all right.
00:47:15Number one.
00:47:17Best match quality ECW, I mean, of course.
00:47:21Most new fans, single show ECW, okay.
00:47:24That was Wrestlemania, I think. Highest average card quality during PLE, okay.
00:47:32Yeah, I think we did all right here.
00:47:39Tony D, most matches won. Highest match rating, of course. Most weeks spent injured.
00:47:46Ludwig Kaiser, our workhorse.
00:47:51Oh, we made three superstars happy. We're en route to the Hall of Fame. Yeah, doing well.
00:48:02All right, now what?
00:48:09Or should the game just freeze on me?
00:48:13Congratulations, you're winning me. Oh, season two. Okay, here we go.
00:48:19Each season before the draft,
00:48:20you'll have the chance to keep a limited number of superstars from your previous roster and prevent the other brands from using them.
00:48:26Okay.
00:48:28Not every superstar might be interested in resigning with you, though.
00:48:31So it's important to make sure you keep the morale high throughout the season.
00:48:34Superstars who do stay with your brand will have their stamina reset at the start of the season. Excellent.
00:48:40Select your keepers. The commissioner restricts the number of superstars you're allowed to keep each season.
00:48:46This is based on your final ranking for the season. The lower the rank,
00:48:49the more keepers slots you'll have available to you. What the hell? I guess that makes sense.
00:48:53Okay.
00:48:57So...
00:48:59Yeah, we have to keep Shin.
00:49:03We have to keep Kofi.
00:49:08And now let's sort by popularity. Let's make sure we keep our best guys around, you know?
00:49:16I guess we should keep our tag champs, too, then, hey?
00:49:19Yeah, let's just keep all the champions. Well,
00:49:22we can redo tag team, but they are two of our more popular, so that's fine.
00:49:25They're both... they're all a little pricey, but we'll keep them in.
00:49:32Yeah, let's do it.
00:49:36Yeah, everyone... look at Montez Ford! Fucking Triple Crown over there, my goodness!
00:49:44The time has come! It's the WWE Draft!
00:49:49Could be make or break for the WCWGF!
00:49:52All right, draft time. Oh, we get the last... Let's see who goes fifth for ECW.
00:49:58All right, so we got a... we got a limited budget here at 278.
00:50:05Let's see who works... well, we need a giant here to start.
00:50:10No giants. No one's gonna work with our boy Kofi to start. Okay, Braun
00:50:15at 263. He's a good guy right now, but we can change that right quick.
00:50:20Yeah, let's do it. ECW Drafts, Braun Strowman. Braun Strowman casting a big shadow on his new show.
00:50:28A true colossus looking to expand his horizons. Now, who works with Shinsuke?
00:50:34I know there was a bunch at the top, but I kind of want to be a bit more affordable here. Hey,
00:50:39it's Tiffy time! But not on ECW, because we don't have women's champions, apparently.
00:50:43Austin Theory works with Shinsuke. Both bad guys. I could turn Shinsuke good, though, real easy.
00:50:55Yeah, let's go with that. ECW selects Austin Theory! Austin Theory gonna make waves on his
00:51:02new show. You can't deny this guy's fighting spirit. All right, now, where is... how do I...
00:51:11Where is... how do I...
00:51:18Ah, sort draft list. There we go.
00:51:23Let's sort by popularity and see if we can get some value plays in here.
00:51:28Solo in a rivalry with Shin would be interesting. That gets us down to two million already. I kind
00:51:33of need... kind of need a tag team now to go up against our boys up there. Oh, they turned...
00:51:41turned Angelo, hey? All right.
00:51:48Yeah, we missed out on Logan Paul. That was devastating. Draft room had to recover. We
00:51:52actually had to take a timeout. You didn't see it on here, but we had to take a timeout to
00:51:56let everyone regroup. All right. Yeah, no one... no one that we want is... no. No one that we want
00:52:06is really meshing with our... our tag team up here. Oh, Josh Briggs. Great.
00:52:15No. I guess Tony's a specialist, so anything kind of works with him.
00:52:22But... ah, okay.
00:52:29What was it? Veer? No, we're not doing Veer. Ivar turning him good. That's a lot of turning
00:52:35that we're going to have to do with our first picks. Let's not... where was it? Josh Briggs?
00:52:43There we go. Yeah, you know what? You're right. Next bet up. You just got to... just best
00:52:50available. That's all you got to do. Best available always. All right, we're in a better
00:52:58financial spot than all those other brands. Okay, so who's teaming now with Briggs? We need someone
00:53:03who I like. No, I don't need to turn. No, we tried that already. That didn't really work.
00:53:11Carmelo Hayes with Josh Briggs could be interesting.
00:53:19He's kind of cheap and popular, so let's do that. Let's do that.
00:53:24And now we're just kind of filling out the roster. Filling out the depth.
00:53:27No, let's not go that low. Let's look for... let's look for some more bargains on here, though.
00:53:36251. Dijak? Like, that could work. He worked on our brand before. Sure, let's fill it out.
00:53:47All right, now we... now we really do need to fill out this depth here.
00:53:50Uh, Tyler Bates is a specialist at 101. Dunski.
00:54:00Oh, man, Raw's budget is down to, like, nothing.
00:54:09Yeah, I don't mind Ilkeen Wild. Let's do that.
00:54:15Oh, and they take his tag team partner. How dare they?
00:54:20All right, WCW's done. They got 250 grand left.
00:54:25Man, I feel like we can still do one big purchase here.
00:54:30Huh? Huh? Huh?
00:54:38Yeah, fuck it, man. Let's do it.
00:54:42Okay, they're probably done. Yeah.
00:54:44All right. Oh, no. Just who do I want? You know, oh, get Trick. That'd be fun.
00:54:57Yeah, Trick Williams. And now we can just keep rolling.
00:55:02You know what? Let's get Solo.
00:55:08Let's do Solo and Randy Orton, and then we'll be done.
00:55:14Solo. Randy, and then... there. We're at over $300,000 remaining. We got a good draft.
00:55:24Solo. Either Solo versus Roman or Solo and Roman as a tag team.
00:55:29That can work as well. Oh, no, I don't want... how do I... end draft. There we go.
00:55:37Yeah, some big names.
00:55:43Look at that. We got more depth than anyone.
00:55:46There. We won. We won Season 1, and I feel like we're in a better spot here in Season 2.
00:55:55But you need to be the best, not merely competitive. We won last year.
00:55:59I need extra effort on all fronts this year. Better shows, better roster management,
00:56:02better financials. Those last two are fair. Let's get things going in the right direction.
00:56:08We won! Why are we...
00:56:13To match performance at WCW, I have to say, Bischoff did a better...
00:56:20They got lucky.
00:56:25Yeah, but we... ugh, this is annoying.
00:56:29Second-class brand, yeah.
00:56:32Listen, I need to wipe that smile off of Kofie's face after that loss within two weeks. Sure thing.
00:56:42Special promotion.
00:56:45All right, let's do that, because we got 230,000 fans, and we need to do something about that.
00:56:50Special promotion.
00:56:53All right, let's do that, because we got 230,000 fans last week,
00:56:57so I don't know if that's how that works, but let's just do it. We lose all our cards?
00:57:02Well, that hurts. Okay, so we're gonna buy that one.
00:57:09And we're gonna buy this one.
00:57:11Special counsel. All promos this week are free, and have the results doubled.
00:57:16You know what? Let's do that at the pay-per-view when there's more...
00:57:20No, there's not. That was just Wrestlemania.
00:57:24Okay, yeah, because we're gonna need to do a couple roll turns, and those cost money.
00:57:29And let's retain.
00:57:33Block all opposing brands from using three random supersurge next week's show.
00:57:38Ooh!
00:57:41Well, let's use that the week before the PLE, then.
00:57:46Uh...
00:57:48Ah, we don't have enough for the new arena yet, but...
00:57:53Let's do... Yeah, we need to get this up.
00:57:59All right, main event. We're doing it for the title.
00:58:04Oh, it's a rivalry, cool. Ah, it doesn't matter.
00:58:07Um...
00:58:08So we won't start off the show with that, then.
00:58:12Well, let's just see. Who does Kofi work with on this roster? Who'd we bring in for?
00:58:16Oh, right, it was Braun.
00:58:19So... Well, no, we don't want...
00:58:22Fuck.
00:58:23Um...
00:58:25Yeah, let's just do that. Title on the line. Go for it.
00:58:29Have your match.
00:58:31Okay, so now...
00:58:34Shinsuke, who did we get for you?
00:58:36Oh, yeah, Roman.
00:58:38Um...
00:58:38We want to keep Roman back. We got someone else, didn't we?
00:58:41I thought we had picked someone specifically that would work with, uh...
00:58:45Would work with Shinsuke.
00:58:46Oh, it's Austin Theory. That's right.
00:58:48And we were gonna turn Shin good.
00:58:50Oh, we can turn Shin good and have him feud with fucking Roman Reigns. That works out.
00:58:58Do that.
00:59:00Call out.
00:59:04What, is Roman out? Oh, there we are.
00:59:06Roman's only a three on the mic?
00:59:08Hurtful.
00:59:10Hurtful.
00:59:12Uh, but that's okay.
00:59:14Uh, Roman, call out Shinsuke.
00:59:16Boom!
00:59:17Look at us rolling.
00:59:19Uh, and now we picked a tag team, too, right?
00:59:21We did, um...
00:59:26What are some of these? Class change.
00:59:28Oh!
00:59:30Did I miss that before? We can do class change on here?
00:59:34Did I miss that before? We can do class change on here?
00:59:38That's interesting. Okay.
00:59:40I don't know how that's gonna work, but that's interesting.
00:59:44Tag team call out.
00:59:46So...
00:59:47It was...
00:59:49Oh yeah, it was like...
00:59:52Carmelo Hayes.
00:59:56Let's do Carmelo and Braun.
00:59:59Calling out...
01:00:00The tag team champs.
01:00:03You'll love to see it.
01:00:04Okay, main event.
01:00:08Uh, let's do...
01:00:10Is Solo in a rivalry with someone?
01:00:12Oh, Solo's in a rivalry with Carmelo, that's right.
01:00:17So that should...
01:00:18Can we finish that one while they're wrestling?
01:00:20Or while he's doing a promo? No, we can't.
01:00:22Okay, we'll save the tag team call out, then.
01:00:25Or should we just put someone else with Braun?
01:00:26That's the way we should do it.
01:00:27Okay, so it's Braun.
01:00:34Braun and Randy Orton?
01:00:36As a tag team to start?
01:00:39Calling out our tag team champs.
01:00:40I like that.
01:00:42And then in our main event, it is...
01:00:44Solo against Carmelo Hayes.
01:00:46What's our goal for the week?
01:00:48Rest your male tag team champions this week.
01:00:51Hmm.
01:00:53All right, well, we'll do the title match next week, then.
01:00:56All right, well, we'll do the title match next week, then.
01:01:04Uh, and you two can go into a tables match again.
01:01:13Um...
01:01:14Who...
01:01:16Who are we picking to feud with?
01:01:17Ah, I don't like any...
01:01:19Like, Dijak is our title challenger?
01:01:22Let's see if it works.
01:01:23We'll see if it works.
01:01:24We're not gonna put the title online in that.
01:01:26Certainly not.
01:01:31Uh, we're arresting those guys.
01:01:33So Austin Theory, who was definitely brought over to be in one of these things,
01:01:37uh, now isn't.
01:01:39Austin Theory against Trick.
01:01:41That could be fun.
01:01:44And then...
01:01:48Oh, we only got good guys left.
01:01:50So...
01:01:51Let's go get us a cruiserweight here.
01:01:56Can just be an established star.
01:01:57We don't need anything crazy.
01:01:59Has to be a guy, has to be a bad guy, and has to be a cruiserweight.
01:02:05A search.
01:02:07Dominic Mysterio.
01:02:09Um...
01:02:12Sure, why not?
01:02:13Let's bring Dom in.
01:02:14Let's do it.
01:02:18Yeah, five weeks works.
01:02:21We'll do that.
01:02:27Briggs against Dom.
01:02:31Boy, that is a show!
01:02:32You know what?
01:02:36Uh, was the rest tag champs or just rest champ?
01:02:38Interesting.
01:02:39Rest male tag champions this week.
01:02:42Um...
01:02:44So we'll keep Kofi in there.
01:02:46The tag champs are getting called out, so that's okay.
01:02:49Roman calling out Shinsuke.
01:02:51Yeah, this is all of a sudden looking a whole lot better.
01:02:56Yeah, like it.
01:02:57Like it.
01:03:00Let's do it.
01:03:08Promos not costing money really helped.
01:03:11All right, this is big Dijak.
01:03:12Dijak wins in a great match.
01:03:15Doesn't start a rivalry, but that's our rivalry!
01:03:17Let's do it!
01:03:19All right, people love Shinsuke turning.
01:03:23Got a couple of our young up-and-comers.
01:03:25Trick gets the win.
01:03:26Whoop that trick.
01:03:27Mediocre match.
01:03:28Okay.
01:03:29Call out, please work.
01:03:30Level two!
01:03:32Oh right, the... the thing.
01:03:37Josh Briggs getting the win.
01:03:39Mediocre match, but it's a rivalry, baby.
01:03:42Level two for that as well.
01:03:44Bron and Randy, promo of a lifetime.
01:03:49That's it.
01:03:51Solo just keeps beating the ever-loving piss out of Carmelo Hayes.
01:04:00Yeah, you guys can... we can skip that.
01:04:03Yeah, we can skip that.
01:04:06Good booking.
01:04:06We'll take it.
01:04:08Not the best matches.
01:04:09The match is not as good as I thought, but the promos helped.
01:04:1234 grand.
01:04:13Okay, so that... that trick with that card didn't really work, but that's okay.
01:04:17Oh, jeez.
01:04:19Okay, so we got some work to do again.
01:04:21But we got a held spot, so that's good.
01:04:29All right, three weeks to Backlash.
01:04:31Rest your primary solo champions this week.
01:04:33And Tony D'Angelo wants a rematch for the title this week.
01:04:36So, sorry, Trips.
01:04:37But we gotta... gotta put the title on the line.
01:04:41I promise, my guy.
01:04:43Where are you?
01:04:44There you are.
01:04:46For the title.
01:04:47Ah, it's rivalry cooldown.
01:04:48That's right.
01:04:48So we're gonna put it here.
01:04:52Second match on the card.
01:04:53Champion versus champion.
01:04:57All right, main event.
01:05:01Do we just want to have these guys fight, or should we...
01:05:05Yeah, let's do that and have Roman interfere.
01:05:12That's the way to do it right there.
01:05:19Uh, I don't have a discord.
01:05:21Uh, TheKingDuff.
01:05:23Sorry, I've, uh...
01:05:24I have said before that I...
01:05:25I do not think I'm important enough or big enough yet to have a, uh...
01:05:29To have a discord.
01:05:30So, uh, no.
01:05:32The only chat we got going on in here is the people in the chat.
01:05:37Uh, okay.
01:05:42Uh, let's do another tag team callout to get that one up and running a little bit more.
01:05:49Uh, yeah, you guys did a real good job last week.
01:05:51So let's just keep that ball rolling.
01:05:57Uh, we got Solo in a match, right?
01:05:59So we can't really advance that.
01:06:02So maybe we do a callout there.
01:06:06But Stack's one of our most popular guys.
01:06:08We should get him in a match here at least.
01:06:10Come on.
01:06:14Uh, we'll do that and we'll have Dom run in.
01:06:16So just an interference heavy show.
01:06:19We got a title match.
01:06:26And then...
01:06:31We're just gonna have Dijak beat the hell out of someone.
01:06:36There we go.
01:06:37And then...
01:06:40Do we have any...
01:06:41We don't really have much for callouts here.
01:06:43So we'll just do a, uh...
01:06:45Oh, is that...
01:06:49Oh, sweet.
01:06:50Book 25 matches that receive at least three stars.
01:06:52Oh, sweet.
01:06:53Book 10 shows with GM interference.
01:06:5510 tornado tags.
01:06:5710 false count anywhere.
01:06:59Surpass 400k on the bank.
01:07:00Ugh, that might be tough at any point for us.
01:07:03Uh, book 10 tag team matches.
01:07:05Okay.
01:07:07Uh, five shows with 12 or more superstars.
01:07:10We can do that one easy.
01:07:12Uh, spend on promos.
01:07:14That was tough from last week.
01:07:15All right.
01:07:16So there's none that we can really...
01:07:18I mean, we can do tornado tag.
01:07:22Like, make this one...
01:07:25A, uh...
01:07:30Tornado tag.
01:07:3035 grand?
01:07:31Jeez.
01:07:33It's okay.
01:07:34Uh, let's put him in there.
01:07:36And we'll put, uh, Trick Williams in there.
01:07:39Boom, tornado tag.
01:07:41And then...
01:07:41There was nothing about promos in there.
01:07:43There was nothing about promos in there.
01:07:45Aside from booking shows with callouts on them.
01:07:47So that's okay.
01:07:48Uh, self promo.
01:07:50Sure!
01:07:51There we go.
01:07:53All right.
01:07:53So we got 130.
01:07:54I do want to be working on these, but it's all in the 200,000.
01:07:58So we'll just keep the money we got and run with this one.
01:08:03We got interference.
01:08:04The first and last.
01:08:05We got a title match.
01:08:07We got a tornado tag.
01:08:09And a few callouts.
01:08:09So I think this is all right.
01:08:13And again, hopefully...
01:08:16Hopefully it's okay.
01:08:21Josh Briggs getting a win.
01:08:23Good match!
01:08:23Okay, good!
01:08:26Another callout works.
01:08:28Fantastic.
01:08:31Kofie retains.
01:08:33What a match.
01:08:37Man, we cannot get that one to level four.
01:08:43Dijak and Austin Theory.
01:08:46Keep hatin'.
01:08:48Okay.
01:08:50Bate gets a promo.
01:08:51That's good.
01:08:52And Solo getting a win.
01:08:55Rivalry does not grow, though.
01:08:56Okay.
01:08:59Yeah, we'll just sim through that.
01:09:02And we'll just sim through that.
01:09:05Poor opening.
01:09:07That's just because the second match was baller.
01:09:09We didn't...
01:09:09I thought it would...
01:09:11Because it was a cool-down thing.
01:09:12I thought it wouldn't work.
01:09:14Ugh.
01:09:15Only 32,000 again.
01:09:19Yeah, we cannot get fans right now.
01:09:25But we stay number one because we got the Hall of Fame trophies.
01:09:28Two weeks to Backlash.
01:09:32USU's tier one special effects during next week's show.
01:09:35Okay, fine.
01:09:43Heh.
01:09:44Okay.
01:09:45Thanks for the rematch against Kofie.
01:09:47Yeah, I got your opportunity.
01:09:50Book your least popular available star for a match this week.
01:09:53Done.
01:09:54Um, we'll put it there.
01:09:57And it is Tyler Bate.
01:09:59Okay, so he's a specialist.
01:10:00So we will put Bate against...
01:10:05Um, we'll do Bate against Roman.
01:10:08And Shinsuke can interfere.
01:10:12That's how it's done, ladies and gents.
01:10:14Hey, you know what?
01:10:15Let's go.
01:10:16Tag team straps on the line.
01:10:20Boom.
01:10:21Doing it.
01:10:24You'll love to see it.
01:10:31And now let's do call out here.
01:10:33Who's better?
01:10:34Definitely Kofie.
01:10:37Kofie calls out Dijak.
01:10:38There we go.
01:10:39Locking it in.
01:10:42Uh, now what else do we need here?
01:10:51Let's go solo against Trick.
01:10:55Just have a good match out there, boys.
01:10:57We'll do a call out.
01:10:58Carmelo calling out Solo.
01:11:04And then...
01:11:05Yeah, you guys just had a good match.
01:11:06So just keep going with it.
01:11:07Keep rolling.
01:11:08Let's do it.
01:11:10And then the self promo.
01:11:12Or let's do another call out one.
01:11:14If we're gonna put...
01:11:14Well...
01:11:19God, no one's really great at promos on this.
01:11:20Let's just do a, uh...
01:11:22Self promo with Theory.
01:11:23There we go.
01:11:26And that leaves us with enough that we can now get into an arena here.
01:11:33Right?
01:11:33No.
01:11:34Only 200 grand.
01:11:35Ugh.
01:11:37Okay, we're stuck at that for a bit.
01:11:38So that's okay.
01:11:39But we can get better at this.
01:11:41Show quality goes up 14.
01:11:43Or should we try to...
01:11:47Yeah, I feel like we should try to hold out until we get to the arena.
01:11:50So let's...
01:11:51I will...
01:11:52I will try to keep spending under reps for a couple of weeks.
01:11:55So we can get to 300 grand.
01:11:59But that being said, do we have any power cards here that'll help?
01:12:04Um...
01:12:05Yeah, since I don't think this is gonna be an awesome show, let's just do that.
01:12:10Uh...
01:12:11Health spa.
01:12:12Yeah, we only have really two guys not wrestling.
01:12:14So that doesn't really work.
01:12:15And injury rehab, we don't have anyone hurt.
01:12:17So...
01:12:19All right, we're gonna build up to that arena.
01:12:25Let's do it.
01:12:351!
01:12:362!
01:12:37That's 3!
01:12:38Ring it!
01:12:40Solo continues to roll.
01:12:45Oh, it doesn't get us there!
01:12:46Shit!
01:12:471!
01:12:472!
01:12:48That's it!
01:12:49Ring the bell!
01:12:50Yeah, Roman beats up Tyler Bate.
01:12:51That's fine.
01:12:52That rivalry grows, okay.
01:12:55There we go.
01:12:56We got it to level 4.
01:12:56That's what we needed.
01:12:571!
01:12:582!
01:12:59It's over!
01:13:00Ring it!
01:13:01Dominic gets his win back!
01:13:051!
01:13:09Oh, the crowd is into it!
01:13:11And the tag champs retain!
01:13:14Doesn't boost the rivalry, but that is okay.
01:13:24Good booking, okay, yeah.
01:13:28All right, well, it's good to know those guys can really rock it.
01:13:30That's sweet.
01:13:3135,000 fans.
01:13:32Yeah, again, we're losing it.
01:13:37All right, we'll retain most of our fans.
01:13:38That's great.
01:13:42Keeping that Hall of Fame trophy.
01:13:43We're a week away to Backlash.
01:13:52I want to go up against both Joaquin and Trick this week.
01:13:55And I don't mean, I mean a triple threat or fatal 4-way.
01:13:58Uh, sure!
01:13:59That loser Nakamura attacked me during my last fight.
01:14:02I'm not going to stand for garbage.
01:14:04I want to sell it in the ring within the next three weeks.
01:14:07Uh, yeah!
01:14:08That was my plan.
01:14:10Schedule a run-in this week.
01:14:11Let's do it.
01:14:12Okay, first off, we won't put a main event, because I'm a little worried about it.
01:14:17Triple threat match.
01:14:21Let's go solo.
01:14:23Let's go solo.
01:14:24Let's go solo.
01:14:25Let's go solo.
01:14:25Let's go solo.
01:14:26Let's go solo.
01:14:26Let's go solo.
01:14:27Let's go solo.
01:14:27Let's go solo.
01:14:29Uh, and then what was it?
01:14:30Trick?
01:14:33And who else?
01:14:35Wild.
01:14:35Got it.
01:14:40All right.
01:14:41Solo.
01:14:45Pump that Trick.
01:14:47And Wild.
01:14:49Where are you, buddy?
01:14:50There we are.
01:14:53We'll do that.
01:14:53And we'll get a bit of a run-in in with, uh,
01:14:57with Carmelo, just to keep that rivalry hot.
01:15:01Although we probably don't really need to, but it fits the criteria.
01:15:10All right.
01:15:11Well, first off, let's make sure we put the governor on ourselves here and get this arena.
01:15:20Boom.
01:15:20Love it.
01:15:23So we are limited in what we can do this week, but we have an arena, so that's sick.
01:15:27Yeah.
01:15:32Kofi 100 popularity.
01:15:38Um.
01:15:41Yeah, I really want to get that rivalry going.
01:15:48Let's just do it again.
01:15:49See if it works.
01:15:52Ah, maybe not the main event.
01:15:55Nah, main event.
01:15:56Whatever.
01:15:56Let's roll with it.
01:15:58Uh, we need to get that rivalry up to four.
01:16:04So let's do a call out here.
01:16:08It's still wild to me.
01:16:09Roman's only a three in that.
01:16:15And then just in case, let's go Shinsuke against Fury.
01:16:22Oh, no.
01:16:22Roman's not going to be able to do it anyway.
01:16:24All right.
01:16:25Well, that's not going to beat up Shinsuke too much.
01:16:27That should be okay.
01:16:30And then another tag team call out here.
01:16:35And let's get our boys in there to call those guys out now.
01:16:45And then just to get Randy on the show, we'll have him beat up Dominic Mysterio.
01:16:52And a bronze health promo.
01:16:55All right, look at that.
01:16:56Made it nice and easy.
01:16:58We don't want anyone getting hurt in any of these.
01:17:00So I don't want to go too extreme there.
01:17:04Power cards.
01:17:05We are going to do that.
01:17:07Confirm.
01:17:11Block all opposing brands.
01:17:12Oh, that's so sweet.
01:17:16Uh, health spa.
01:17:17Do we have anyone sitting who's important?
01:17:20No.
01:17:23All right.
01:17:25There we go.
01:17:28Let's do it.
01:17:38All right.
01:17:38Well, that's not a great sounding crowd.
01:17:40Oh, good match.
01:17:41All right, good.
01:17:43Get me a level four.
01:17:44God damn it.
01:17:48Solo wanted a challenge.
01:17:51Oh, it doesn't even matter.
01:17:52Mediocre match.
01:17:52That's why we didn't put it on main event.
01:17:54Good.
01:17:57Can't get that one rivalry up anymore.
01:17:58That's okay.
01:18:01Dominic Mysterio beats Randy Orton.
01:18:04My word.
01:18:10Do that rivalry.
01:18:11Die Jack wins again.
01:18:14Not a rivalry though.
01:18:15Okay.
01:18:16Good booking again, though.
01:18:17Works for me.
01:18:2031,000 fans.
01:18:21Okay.
01:18:23Oh, we're close to WCW and then Romp pulls ahead with a big one.
01:18:27Only usable on superstars with less than 60 popularity.
01:18:32Okay.
01:18:33Yeah, we need to, we got some people who I want to boost up a little bit.
01:18:36So that works.
01:18:37WrestleMania Backlash.
01:18:38The superstars are back in the ring.
01:18:40We're going to do that.
01:18:40We're going to do that.
01:18:41We're going to do that.
01:18:41We're going to do that.
01:18:42We're going to do that.
01:18:43We're going to do that.
01:18:43We're going to do that.
01:18:44We're going to do that.
01:18:44We're going to do that.
01:18:45The stupid pay-per-view name ever.
01:18:47Contract is up at the end of the week.
01:18:49Uh, no.
01:18:53Cool.
01:18:58Uh-oh.
01:18:59Uh, yeah.
01:19:00No problem, Solo.
01:19:04My friends have been waiting so long to see me compete in St. Louis tonight.
01:19:07Can't wait to entertain.
01:19:08Ditto.
01:19:09At least one submission match on the card.
01:19:11Okay.
01:19:11We can do that.
01:19:13Uh-huh.
01:19:18There we go.
01:19:19Lock that in.
01:19:21Now power cards here.
01:19:27So who...
01:19:28Okay.
01:19:28We don't really need that right now.
01:19:29That's okay.
01:19:30No one there I really want to boost up.
01:19:34All right.
01:19:34Main event.
01:19:35I feel like we gotta go back to that tag team match.
01:19:37People were into it.
01:19:39Uh, let's go those guys.
01:19:40Yeah, all of them.
01:19:42Tag titles on the line.
01:19:44And...
01:19:48Inside of a steel cage.
01:19:53Things you love to see.
01:19:54In our opener.
01:19:57Okay, do we have anyone who thrives in a submission match?
01:20:03No.
01:20:04Okay.
01:20:04That's all right.
01:20:06Um...
01:20:06Okay.
01:20:06That's all right.
01:20:07Uh, in our opener we'll go...
01:20:10No, we'll go...
01:20:12Yeah, those guys.
01:20:14And that will be the submission match.
01:20:20Title match, yeah.
01:20:23And then...
01:20:26Against Dijak.
01:20:26And hope that rivalry takes off a little bit.
01:20:29Or at all.
01:20:32And in Solon, Carmelo, Hayes.
01:20:33We only have a little bit left.
01:20:36Build you guys up.
01:20:38Ambulance match.
01:20:39Let's finish it off.
01:20:42Yeah, let's do it.
01:20:44Ambulance match.
01:20:46Oh, that should probably open, hey?
01:20:48Yeah, we're doing that.
01:20:55Uh, ambulance match.
01:20:57You two go for it.
01:20:58And then we'll put...
01:21:01Submission match here.
01:21:03For the TV title.
01:21:06Then...
01:21:07Yeah, you guys can just have a match.
01:21:09You guys just wrestle.
01:21:13Uh, okay.
01:21:14Then after that...
01:21:20Sure.
01:21:23Let's just cut us some promos.
01:21:30Every available wrestler on the roster.
01:21:33Randy Orton's wrestling, right?
01:21:35Yeah, there we go.
01:21:35We know those guys can have a blowaway match in the main event.
01:21:38In a steel cage.
01:21:42All looks good to me.
01:21:47All right, this is where, uh...
01:21:48This is where we build it back up.
01:21:50This is where we, uh...
01:21:51Where we catch up.
01:21:54Oh, they got the ambulance match, like, graphic in the background.
01:21:56That's sweet.
01:21:57Yeah, I think Solo won every match of that.
01:21:59Carmelo's been hurt for three weeks.
01:22:01Carmelo's been hurt for three weeks.
01:22:02That checks out.
01:22:05All right.
01:22:09Dom against Briggs.
01:22:10Dom just cannot be beat.
01:22:12Ends his ECW career on a high.
01:22:15All right.
01:22:18Oh, the crowd loved it.
01:22:20Roman Reigns.
01:22:24All right.
01:22:26Oh, these people into the promos.
01:22:29People into this match.
01:22:30Kofi retains.
01:22:36And then in your main event...
01:22:40Yeah, figured that would happen.
01:22:41Braun and Randy.
01:22:42A legendary match!
01:22:46Whoo!
01:22:47All right, top that, WCW and Raw.
01:22:51Don't think you can.
01:22:54Amazing booking.
01:22:55Because that's how we roll.
01:22:59That is how it is done.
01:23:01Oh, 101.
01:23:03Huge.
01:23:04Won it.
01:23:04To be honest, wanted a bit more money for that.
01:23:06But that's okay.
01:23:09Oh, yeah.
01:23:11Okay, there we go.
01:23:13That was huge.
01:23:21So we're about 140,000 fans back.
01:23:26So another pay-per-view like that and we got it.
01:23:28Oh, in the trades.
01:23:29That's right.
01:23:33Anyone here who's costing too much money that we just kind of want to get rid of?
01:23:39Huh.
01:23:42You know what?
01:23:42Diject just isn't really clicking.
01:23:46You guys have a giant over here that...
01:23:52Is that us taking on a bunch of money?
01:23:53Yeah, that's us taking on a hundred grand.
01:23:55And we're trying to build those things up.
01:23:56So we'll do that.
01:24:02It's about similar.
01:24:06We're taking on a little bit more money.
01:24:07And hopefully for a guy who clicks a little bit more and...
01:24:17And Sammy just because...
01:24:18Oh, that's way too much money we're taking on.
01:24:21Yeah, let's just hope that those guys click a little bit.
01:24:27Ah, trade declined.
01:24:35All right, that's okay.
01:24:36I don't even...
01:24:37You know what?
01:24:37I think we've built up our roster pretty well.
01:24:39Like I don't think we need to make a trade right now.
01:24:42So I'll just...
01:24:44I'll end trading.
01:24:46They gonna offer me anything?
01:24:48Kevin Owens for Mellow and Trick.
01:24:52Mellow's hurt.
01:24:54I do love me some KO.
01:24:56And money-wise, we are taking on a little bit.
01:25:02I do like the depth that we've built up though.
01:25:04I'm gonna decline this one.
01:25:15It's the same trade.
01:25:18Just hoping that I'll change my...
01:25:19Oh no, now they're giving me the money.
01:25:21I see.
01:25:22No, I like the depth that we have right now.
01:25:24Duke Hudson for those two guys is an absolute no.
01:25:34No.
01:25:36I don't care that you're giving us money.
01:25:37No, absolutely not.
01:25:42All right, four weeks to SummerSlam.
01:25:55Precious Silver.
01:26:03Popularity 30.
01:26:05No room on the brand right now.
01:26:12Tyler Bate.
01:26:13I was hoping to take some personal time.
01:26:15Can I get two weeks off?
01:26:17Uh yeah.
01:26:20All right, Generous Cruisers.
01:26:24Cruiser superstar.
01:26:27Triple the cost but double the fan game for charity promos.
01:26:30No.
01:26:35Right, so precious.
01:26:37But that was definitely a no.
01:26:38Fan favorites gain morale and rule breakers gain five popularity.
01:26:42Specialist superstars lose more stamina for matches but increase the popularity of all
01:26:46superstars in the match they are in by five.
01:26:49Ooh, let's do that.
01:26:59All right, I think this is a good time to leave it here.
01:27:02We got some momentum building, setting us up for the next one.
01:27:06So we're going to call it here.
01:27:09As always, so much fun chatting with you guys.
01:27:12Follow me on social media.
01:27:14And like we joked about Audie calling a shot with the Blue Jay stream.
01:27:18But if there's anything on here you guys want to see, let me know.
01:27:21Like either on social media, you can tweet at me or just in the chat.
01:27:26Like, hey, let's do a flames thing tomorrow.
01:27:28I'll try to make it work.
01:27:31Because yeah, I want to grow this thing.
01:27:32I love doing this with all you guys.
01:27:34And all right, I will talk to all you guys later.
01:27:36Have a great day, everybody.
