    Trying to form this list after starting with a list of thirty was bloody difficult. "Lisa the Iconoclast", "Simpson and Delilah", "Marge vs The Monorail", "The Homer They Fall" and "Sideshow Bob Roberts" were extremely hard to cut away.

  2. But the WWE has more, a lot more of an audience. That is the way the game works, from the game's own FAQ and mechanics. Yeah "experts" know of him and how good he is, but they make up a very small segment of the wrestling fan population. I run an American Football board, with people who watch wrestling. I think maybe 2 or 3 of them know of Richards. You know what they talk about more? The WWE. Because that's what wrestling fans at large know. We're a small special population, hardly indicative of the wrestling fan population at large.

    I don't care about who buys a ticket to see who or whatever, overness doesn't measure that. It measures how well a wrestler is known, and if you polled all wrestling fans, they would know who Heath Slater was more often than Richards.

    You can posit all the ifs and buts about if their situations were reversed, but they aren't. Pretty sure Claudio's been doing the same thing, as most other heels, and not all reactions are the same. Slater may be another WWE guy, but those guys, they're pretty well known. If you talk about overness being a worker in his role, which it is, to an extent, then Davey can be a 67 and still be a Main Eventer at the Cult Promotion level, which is exactly what he is.

    And here is the Problem. You say "Overness" means how many People knows Heat Slater. I say Overness ist how People reacts to a Wrestler. And you say Overness does not mean a wrestler "sold tickets"? For me this is a big factor in the Overness Value.

    How many "casual" fans know the WWE Guys that are used almost only for superstars and live events? Not as many as you might think! WWE has more audience no doubt. That does not mean that the casual fans know the worker from the Undercard

    Yeah...Richards could Main Event a cult promotion with 67. But Slater wouldn't headline any show for ROH. Slater wouldn't headline any Show in Japan. He would be just a guy known from WWE.

    And the game says fuck your definition of overness. As already explained the game determines overness by how well known the worker is. It is ludicrous to argue that a guy who has never been on national tv in any prominent role is as over or more over (which the game determines as who is more well-known) than someone who is on televisions world wide. Remember, Raw is broadcast on stations in many countries, not just America.

    You don't get it. A lot of the WWE Guys in the Undercard you never see at RAW or SmackDown. Bateman, Curtis, JTG, Reks, Hawkins, Beretta, Riley, Camacho, Hunico, McIntyre, Jackson, Usos, Mahal, Gabriel, Ryan, McGillicutty, Tatsu and, besides the Legend-Angle, Heath Slater....all these guys are mostly used only for Superstars and NXT. NXT and Superstars runs on the Internet not on national tv. In many Countries you can't see these shows at all. In many countries you can not even see the complete RAW and Smackdown Shows. And if these guys are sometimes used on Smackdown or RAW then as jobbers. (And guess what ... you can see the ROH Weekly free on the ROH website worldwide! And hey...you can't see Superstars (legally) worldwide on the Internet) So you argue that these people are known worldwide even though they are NOT on worldwide television...although they're not even on national TV? Just because they are on wwe.com roster page?

    And what says the Game really about overness?

    Over: This is how much the crowd react to a worker. 0 means the person is totally unknown, 100 means a worker is known worldwide (such as The Rock). Generally wrestlers below 10 will be working for backyard federations, wrestlers around 60 will be working for Cult promotions, and workers over 80 will be working for Global promotions.

    So if you want the game more realistic then lower also the overness of the WWE and TNA Under Carder

    If the way overness in EWR works bothers you so much you should just play TEW.

  3. I think most of you are forgetting that, unlike TEW, EWR has ONE number which measures how over someone is in the game. Which means that the biggest promotion in the game is going to be a greater measuring stick in determining how over someone is in comparison to smaller companies.

    I think people are also forgetting that Indy companies tend to have the same fans attending most of the shows, so of course most of the wrestlers are going to get good reactions - they wrestle in front of similar crowds at any given event. For example, I worked as a cameraman for a local wrestling event last weekend and we pulled a crowd of around 100 people. One of our faces got a HUGE reaction from the crowd - but that doesn't mean he should have a high overness level just because 100 people know who he is and react to him - because I guarantee if you swapped out that crowd for 100 different people his reaction would've been a lot less. If you did the same experiment with The Rock, for example, he would get a huge reaction regardless because he is The Rock and lots of wrestling fans know who he is. And I bet if you did the same experiment again a WWE midcarder would get a bigger reaction than a El Generico or Sami Callihan because more wrestling fans would know who the midcarder is and thus there's more of a chance he'll get a reaction in comparison to the indy wrestlers.

    If you want a more "accurate" way of measuring overness you should play TEW instead.

  4. I think there is a strong bias among those people who hate WWE and their sports entertainment type of wrestling. That leads to under-inflated stats. I point to the post above this one by Darnez FC.

    If you can point me to any of the great brawls Ezekiel Jackson, Mason Ryan & Alex Riley have had (since that what stats 70+ mean, it means those guys are GREAT at that certain aspect of wrestling) then I'll gladly retract my statement.

    Ehh, those I don't care about too much. But Orton is one of the best in-ring storytellers in the business. Just because he doesn't use 8 different types of kicks, 3 different elbows, and 2 different punches, doesn't mean he's not great in the ring? Leave his brawl where it is, and understand there is more to matches than just different moves strung together.

    79 puts Orton on the level of John Cena, Chris Jericho & CM Punk - I don't see Orton as a better brawler than those three, and besides Cena I don't think Punk or Jericho need their brawl stat raised.

    I'd raise Cena to 81 and lower Orton to 79.

    I fully believe that Orton is better than Cena, and I'm not a Cena hater. I like the guy, but his offense is not as believable as Orton's. Other than that, they are very similar, I agree with you on that. Because of the believability factor I put Orton over Cena.

    BTW, I hope I'm not coming off as an arrogant asshole. I have been told I do when I get into conversations like this and I'm trying not to.

    I suppose we'll have to agree to disagree then and let Bill decide.

    And no you're not, don't worry.

  7. Guys who I have not seen but feel are entirely overrated:

    Adam Cole

    [...]

    Disagree with that. His last bout with Kyle O' Reilly was tremendous. I feel Brawl 's stat could be raise.

    Well, I notice for a lot of guys that the Speed stat was overrated for my taste.

    For example, I don't see a guy like Clay at 31 (same as Orton, Ryback, Marella and Barrett).

    For the moment, I updated the Brawl Ladder I did last month (added DGUSA and PWG):

    That BRAWL list just goes to show you how many wrestlers (especially in WWE) have overinflated stats.

    Lower Randy Orton's Brawl to 79

    Lower Matt Morgan's Brawl to 75

    Lower Ezekiel Jackson's Brawl to 68

    Lower Alex Riley's Brawl to 66

    Lower Mason Ryan's Brawl to 60

    And that's just at a glance.
