Natsupoi (Natsumi Maki) is out injured since October 23 with an undisclosed injury. No info available when she will be back. In the meantime she is doing Colour Commentary for Stardom shows.

Ram Kaicho, An Chamu, Arisa Nakajima, Saori Anou, Unagi Sayaka, Risa Sera, Maya Yukihi, Aoi, Riko Kaiju, Tomoka Inaba, Natsuki Taiyo & Konami should all be active in the US. They are all part of the Sukeban promotion.

Since that tends to be the light/cruiser limit, it's light under 220lbs, middle over 220lbs.

Going by this - Thom Latimer (238lbs), Eric Young (232lbs), Jake Something (262lbs), Joe Hendry (252lbs), Buddy Matthews (225lbs) and Richard Holliday (237lbs) should be changed Middleweights. (Those are the ones that come to mind, because I hire them in almost every game)

Edit: Since it was mentioned on last nights Impact episode: Will Ospreay (230lbs) should also be a Middleweight.

Thanks for the update.

At what weight do you make the change from light to middleweight?

Personally I think some of the NXT guys that are listed as lightweights should be middleweights instead.

Bronco Nima - billed with 300 lbs on wwe.com

Brooks Jensen - billed with 243 lbs on wwe.com

Trick Williams - billed with 240 lbs on wwe.com

I personally would also put guys like Luca Crusifino, Myles Borne, Tavion Heights, Tony D'Angelo and Tyriek Igwe as middleweights but I can't find specific weight data for them.

other NXT changes:

Darryl Sharma had a name change a few months back. He is now Adrian Butler in NXT.

Mikey Spandex/Marquis Hamilton left WWE/NXT a few months ago.

Giovanna Eburneo is no longer with WWE/NXT. On her instagram page it says "Former WWE-NXT".

Arianna Grace should be a Heel.

Izzi Dame should be a Heel.

Javier Bernal should be a Heel.

Lexis King should be a Heel.

Luca Crusifino should be a Heel.

Myles Borne should be a Heel.

create a stable with Charlie Dempsey, Drew Gulak, Damon Kemp & Myles Borne. But I don't know what name this stable should have.

create a tag team with Tyriek Igwe & Tyson Dupont.

create a tag team with Luca Crusifino & Javier Bernal.

Based on the first 4 episodes of the OVW docuseries on Netflix, add the following relationships:
Amazing Maria & Haley James - Blood relationship
Haley James & Eric Darkstorm - Dating
Haley James & Ronnie Roberts - Protege
Maybe add Loyalty relationships for Al Snow with Mahabali Shera, Cash Flo, Doug Basham & Amazing Maria


A few born status changes
Tiffany Nieves was born in 1995
Valentina Rossi was born in 1996
Renee Michelle was born in August 1986
Dani Jordyn was born in December 1993
Izzy Moreno was born in May 2007


remove Earl Hebner from Impact
remove Su Yung from Impact (hasn't wrestled there in over two years)
remove Mickie James from Impact
remove Nick Aldis from Impact
rename John E. Bravo in Impact to Alpha Bravo, he is also the Bodyguard (Manager) for Dirty Dango

remove the starting absence for Su Yung
remove the starting injuries for Josh Alexander, Bryan Danielson and King Kota


I know it is not an active promotion, but Mission Pro should be an womens wrestling promotion

 

• change Tsukushi Haruka from active to retired wrestler and set her to left the business (she retired in May 22)
• change Act Yasukawa's role to active wrestler (she returned in Dec 21)
• Risa Sera, Akane Fujita, Suzu Suzuki, Hiragi Kurumi & Mochi Miyagi should have the freelance box set to yes - they let their contract with Ice Ribbon ran out in Dec 21 and announced that they would promote hardcore/death matches under the "Prominence" banner.

the following japanese wrestlers should have their language changed from english to japanese

• Benten Musume
• Hibiki
• Mao Torihata
• MIZUHO
• Shiki Shibusawa
• Yako Fujigasaki
• Yua Hayashi
• Yuri Kotobuki

Set Maya Yukihi to fluent in Japanese, English & Spanish.
Set Ilja Dragunov to fluent in English, Central European & Eastern European.
Amale Winchester, Lucky Kid & Oliver Carter should have their English Language set to (at least) passable.

On the subject of Language: In most european countries, English is taught as a second language to children. Because of that I think most (if not all) of the european workers should have the English language set to at least passable.

O M G these are AWESOME.

I went through the japanese women and from what I found on their cagematch profile (if they had one) the following wrestlers should be retired

Also rename Meiko Tanaka to Hibiki (she uses this name since 2019)

I don't think Stardom should have a Face/Heel Divide.
Also Stables should be set to integral.

Mayu Iwatani (STARS), Natsuko Tora (Oedo Tai), Giulia (Donna del Mondo), Momo Watanabe (Queens Quest) and Jungle Kyona (Tokyo Cyber Squad) are the Leaders of the Stables.

Himeka joined Stardom in June as a member of Donna del Mondo.
https://www.cagematch.net/en/?id=2&nr=19742&gimmick=Himeka
From what I have seen in her first few matches, she acts very similar to Utami Hayashishita. She is also about the same size. So if you don't have her added already you could clone Utami.

 

Brooklyn Page should be renamed to Brooklyn Creed. Change her In Ring Status to Active. Untick the Referee Role and set her Roles to Active Wrestler and Manager. She is also the wife of Logan Creed but I haven't found him in the database.

set Jokey ... to be wrestlers...

On that note: Jokey aka Aivil retired at least temporarily because of an injury. The ICW Womens Championship should be set to vacant and Jokey/Aivil set to retired (and add a head injury [fractured cheekbone, facial nerve & sight issues], she explains the injury in the video below)

Here is the video of Aivil saying goodbye in ICW: 

Thanks for all your work over the years with the TEW16 Real World Mod. Really enjoyed the mod.

Stardom Cinderella Tournament spoiler

Looking at the rankings of the promotions I think there should be some small changes made. For example Impact is no longer in 3rd place behind WWE and New Japan.

Personally I would list the Top20 like this:
 

Also:
It seems that New Japan and ROH will no longer work together for US shows, so remove ROH from the Alliance. In fact New Japan will start its own US Brand in the near future.

This is the guide I use, I'll bump up to heavyweight.

Giant - Special cases
Super Heavyweight - 380lb +
Big Heavyweight - 320 – 380lbs
Heavyweight - 290 – 320lbs
Light Heavyweight - 260 – 290lbs
Middleweight - 230 – 260lbs
Lightweight - Most male wrestlers under 230lbs, large female wrestlers
Small - Unusually small male wrestlers, female wrestlers
Very Small - Smaller female wrestlers, small male non-wrestlers

Going by your guide - change both Thomas Latimer & Royce Isaacs to Middleweight

Why do these women have AEW contracts?
Emi Sakura, Faby Apache, Ivelisse, Jazz, Mercedes Martinez, Nicole Savoy, Shazza McKenzie, Ryo Mizunami, Big Swole, ODB, Priscilla Kelly, Tenille Dashwood

So far, they wrestled one match for the company.

But that is something that I've seen here (and the GDS forum) suggested a lot. Wrestler A has a match for Company X and immediately someone suggest adding this wrestler to the company. I think if a wrestler appears on 3-4 shows within a certain period of time he/she should be added to the company. Or if the company announces the signing of the wrestler.

Right now - according to their website - AEW has 10 female wrestlers under contract. Allie, Awesome Kong, Bea Priestley, Brandi Rhodes, Britt Baker, Hikaru Shida, Leva Bates, Nyla Rose, Penelope Ford & Sadie Gibbs. Aja Kong, Riho & Yuka Sakazaki appeared on more than one show and I know they have some sort of Talent Exchange Relationship with one or two Joshi Promotions (I think TJP & Stardom) but Kong & Yuka where not at All Out. I also read (on Squared Circle Sirens & WON) that Riho only signed a 5 show deal back in May which would mean that the first TV show would be her last appearance with AEW. So maybe give Riho a loan deal with one match. Personally I would wait to sign the other two until after the first month of TV shows.

Fair enough, but they are no longer an alliance, they’ve literally undone any agreements they had and are now going to run their own shows. At least remove CWFH from the alliance as they haven’t done anything with them for ages.

also looks like SWE-ENG are being bought out by REV PRO - https://lastwordonprowrestling.com/2019/09/04/reports-revpro-to-merge-with-southside-wrestling-entertainment/

arent they a currently active promotion in the dB? Any ideas who will replace them as an active promotion yet?

I would suggest making Game Changer Wrestling Active. They are currently one of the biggest independent companies in the US

Since it is a British promotion I suggest making another British promotion active instead or even better a European promotion. Currently Europe only has two active promotions with wXw in Germany and ICW in Italy.  Maybe turn Fight Club Finland (http://www.wrestling.fi/) into an active promotion.
US and the other markets (besides Europe and Australia) are already represented very well in the game.

BTW I'm just curious why is Qatar Pro Wrestling based in Europe? Southwest Asia is not Europe.

- Jacob Fatu is set as a Lightweight but weighs 300 pounds - change him to Light Heavyweight or Heavyweight (don't know what the limits are for the different weight classes)

Thanks for the update.

- Teal Piper was born on June 7, 1985 (according to IMDb) and set her to be based in South West
- remove Willow Nightingale's injury
- remove starting absence for Mercedes KV
- remove Charlie Morgan from EVE, NXT:UK & Progress
- set McKenzie Mitchell to be based in South West
- add a starting injury for Samantha Heights (torn ACL - out for 4-5 months I guess?)

The AEW Roster seems to be on point. I'd like to suggest maybe adding Bret in there, only considering he did present their belt (and because, I'm 100% biased when it comes to the Excellence of Execution)

Maybe add "Loyalty to" tags to Cody, Brandi, The Young Bucks, and Adam Page? I know Omega should probably be in that group, but I can also see Omega maybe making the jump to WWE depending on the future of this brand. 

Contracts seem to be half-written/half-PPA. Here's what I gathered:

Cody & Brandi: 5 Years

The Young Bucks: 5 Years

Adam Page: 4 Years

Kenny Omega: 4 Years

Chris Jericho: 3 Years

Jon Moxley: 3 Years (His, Omega also Jericho, all have the NJPW/indie options. I know it's not exactly a formal working agreement yet, but could we mull over having AEW in a working relationship with NJPW?)

Joey Janela: 3 Year PPA

SoCalUncensored: 3 Years

Penta/Fenix: PPA

 

 

 

 

Janela confirmed in an interview with Chris Van Vliet that he will be exclusive to AEW.
Regarding the AEW/NJPW relationship - I think once the deal between ROH and NJPW ends, New Japan will go All In with the AEW partnership.

Also, Shawn Spears said that he has not yet signed a contract with AEW.

WSU changes - I know the company is closed in the data, but since they changed the name I looked at the rest of the stats too and there are some changes that should be made if someone wants to make the company active (in my opinion).
 

thanks for the update.

- add mma fighter (other genre) to syuri

The following is a list of Japanese female wrestlers that, according to cagematch and joshi city, are retired or their last recorded match was 2 or more years ago. Change their status from active to retired wrestler.

- I don't know how exactly the young lions system in TEW works but I don't think women like Arisa Nakajima, Kagetsu, Makoto, Mayu Iwatani are considered young lions. All of them have a lot of experience, were part big matches for their companies and have won more than one championship. I don't know what needs to be changed for them to not be considered a young lion, but I think it should be changed.
 

According to her twitter Rain is one of the owners of UCE Wrestling so maybe give her some Owner/Booking Skills (Rep [Owner & Booker] 5-10, Skill 15-20) that would allow her to take over a position of power.

Also Rain seems to be married to the other owner of UCE Wrestling which is a man called Aleki (not in the data) who is related to the Anoa'i family.
In the data Rain has a married relationship with Chris Gray so remove that relationship.

Fabian Aichner/Adrian Severe should have English for a language. Mediterranean still fucks with him being able to do promos and from what I've seen in NXT: UK, he speaks perfect english. I assume Macel Barthel/Axel Dieter Jr. speaks english too but I'm not 100% on that as I haven't actually seen him cut a promo yet.

Axel Dieter Jr. speaks fluent english. Most if not all the promos in wXw are done in english. Having said that I think most of the wrestlers from Europe should have english at at least passable. Most people learn english in school. 

If you want to add Leyla Hirsch to the data, these are the stats I used for my game:
