EWR 2014 Stats Update: July ***PLEASE USE SPOILER TAGS***

[KrisClassic]

By the way that's more than half the states in the nation... How many states do you think there are? lol

They still have only run a handful of states. TNA has ran much more.

Which is why TNA would still have a high stat.

-Check SS Look for Scot Summers. Raise his overness to 34 and wages to 12k. Change his gimmick to Bad Ass.

-Raise Chris Dickinson's brawl to 78 and technical to 65.

-Raise Dan Barry's brawl to 49, speed to 58, technical to 61, stiffness to 38, overness to 32, and charisma to 79 (has a hilarious detective gimmick and is a comedian in real life). Add him to CZW developmental (Beyond), Comedy Character, Face.

-Add Bobby Dutch to Beyond, Face, Comedy Character. Rename him to Bill Carr. Raise his overness to 29 and charisma to 68.

-Create a tag team called Team Tremendous, Dan Barry and Bill Carr, 25 exp.

Beyond has gotten to the point where it is so big that I would argue it should be added as a separate promotion to the game.

Not sure if this came up, but Chuck Palumbo should be listed as a non-wrestler since he now has a reality show on Discovery Channel called Lords of the Car Hoards and stated he is retired.

[Klee]

- Santino Marella reportedly announced his retirement from in-ring action at tonight's WWE live event in Toronto. Santino told the crowd that he has suffered his third neck injury.

We noted before that Santino mentioned in a recent interview that his career was winding down and was interested in staying with WWE in a non-wrestling role.

Could be since they aren't on the roster and haven't been around since the ppv match. Thought they were getting brought in to help the tag division

Part of TNA's problem is they already tapped events through August and then have the rest of the tapings until Bound For Glory in August. I doubt the Von Erichs would be used in New York for the time being so I would wait until after BFG if they aren't used during the house shows loop and the upcoming August tapings.

Beyond has gotten to the point where it is so big that I would argue it should be added as a separate promotion to the game.

Beyond doesn't have a set regular roster for the most part as well as a number of workers who have a full boat and also guys who need to be added. http://www.cagematch.net/?id=8&nr=692&page=8

[Skummy]

I don't think 3Peck0 should be a stable, there's nothing to suggest they're anything beyond a loose alliance when it comes to trios matches, similar to 3.Olé, they're not a stable in any traditional sense.

Ultramantis Black is the leader of the Spectral Envoy, not Hallowicked, and I'd argue that Silver Ant should probably be the leader of The Colony, as he's the most vocal and active, Fire Ant has just been there the longest.

I'd debate things like making Jervis and Thunderfrog "II", as it's all based on hearsay and speculation, but I suppose that's up to Bill.

I'd certainly argue against the Loyalty relationships you've suggested, though - just because EWR gives "trainer/trainee" as examples of loyalty relationships doesn't make that a universal role, think of how that would work in-game. Do you think Cesaro would be cheered up massively by you hiring Estonian Thunderfrog to WWE, or that Mike Quackenbush would threaten to leave CHIKARA over you firing him? Do you think Bully Ray and Devon would be affected all that noticeably if you hired Oliver Grimsly?

Hell, on the Mike Quackenbush example, 90% of the roster were trained by him. If you follow that logic, then if you played as CHIKARA you wouldn't be able to release anyone without him getting pissed off at you.

I don't disagree but until we see the other loyalties based on training removed. I agree we should see a change but if not, why not keep it as is?

"Things don't work, but they're not being changed - so why not make it more broken?"

We've talked about the changes, even Bill has said it but it is complicated (which Bill has said too.) In America besides CHIKARA, many trainers and trainees don't have true loyalties compared to Japan and Mexico (CHIKARA I would argue has it to a degree because it is similar to Japan and Mexico and you rarely see a wrestler leave who was trained by Quacks and keep wrestling for the promotion if only irregularly unless they move, retire or goto WWE like Cesaro.) Also remember how much BCW guys like A-1, Alex Shelley, Bobby Roode, Chris Sabin, Eric Young, Petey Williams and others got a chance in TNA because of Scott D'Amore on the booking committee pushing for them (he did train most if not all of them.)

We've had the issues with the Cabana/Punk friendships and I am not saying to include friendships, just known loyalties to a trainer. This is a reason I'm not saying to have a Joey Ryan/R-Rod, Candice LaRae/Eric Young or Candice LaRae/Johnny Gargano friendship from the latest Candice and Joey show in Walt Disney World.

in other news,

in the same Candice and Joey show, Joey outted Candice as a worked Canadian at Epcot's Canada pavilion. I guess she would be American.

Dragon Rojo Jr. is now a face. I would delete Revolutionarios due to there only being two members (Rey (E)Scorpion and Polvora)

Fenix's Metoera is called La Garra del Fenix. He should also have Fenix Driver as his secondary finisher (it's a Tiger Driver so it should be an impact move.)

Pentagon Jr. should have Inverted Gory Special Bomb as his secondary finisher.

Pequeno Warrior has left CMLL.

Add KENTA to WWE.

Add Sting to WWE on Open contract.

- We noted before that it appeared WWE and Sting had to come to terms other than the deal for WWE 2K15 as they are already selling new merchandise. WWE officials did not want to air the Sting 2K15 announcement until Sting had to signed a talent contract.

[EWFan2004]

I mentioned this a couple of months ago or, but some staffing stuff. For some reason, Jim Molineaux has a written contract ticked on, and Andrew McManus should be deleted from the database as he has done any wrestling stuff for over a decade. Same with Rob Black as well. Of course, I could be wrong the latter accounts but Molineaux's contract has been ticked as written for a long while.
