Re-upping some old cuts I made:

Workers have more drawing power in the WWE because the WWE itself has more drawing power than most of the roster.

The 2012 Observer Newsletter article reposted here: http://forums.prowrestling.com/showthread.php?t=111077

Concerning the history of box office draws is relevant to this discussion and an interesting read.

IDOL, you are right - but that is to conflate a workers push with a workers ability to draw - as far as I'm aware - 'overness' in TEW pertains to the ability of a worker to draw, rather than how they are necessarily perceived or pushed.

The reality is virtually none of TNA's roster should be anywhere near 70, or even 60 - based on their ability to draw crowds. I would actually wager, that the TNA brand probably draws better than most of their roster (as it is with the WWE).

Obviously Hogan, Sting, Hardy and Angle are draws (though not particularly strong ones these days for the most part), but none of their largely indy-cum-'TNA stars' are actually draws; even if they are over with the TNA fans. They would be and are virtual unknowns to the mainstream wrestling fan. I would add the Dudleyz up on TNA's list, but they scrape the 60s (higher maybe in the tri-state). The rest of the roster, despite their push are not draws and should, accurately be rated as such.

On the WWE - the confusion between push and drawing power is plain - the list posted above is essentially true to the card structure but not to drawing. Randy Orton for example is leagues ahead of Bryan Danielson as a draw, but on that list are rated almost identicially. CM Punk even outrates them, which just isn't true (in the case of Orton). Even if Punk is pushed as a main-eventer, he is not a box office draw.

Hey all,

I made some random lucha and puro cuts for my game for workers without profile pics in my data, enjoy (I may add some more in the future as needed depending on what pics i find online and the standard of the ones I come across in the data):

Jerome Le Banner - Former IGF (and K1 kick-boxing) Champion.

Nobuo Shiraishi - New owner of AJPW (from capital vulture firm Speed Partners).

Viktor Kruger - Alumni of the famous european promotion Catch Wrestling Association (also WCW), now wrestling in Japan with IGF.

Namajague - Masked persona of NJPW young lion Kyosuke Mikami who is on learning excursion with CMLL in Mexico.

El Neito del Santo - Not to be confused with Axel who also uses the grandson of Santo moniker, this is one of El Hijo del Santo's sons who has just joined the NOAH Dojo in Japan in prepartion for his full Mexican debut later this year.

Kraneo - Formerly of AAA as Alebrije.

That's legitimately crazy. Feel for the guy. Must be horrible. Didn't stop me making a joke on twitter mind.

Wha, surely you should feel sory for the person who got shot and killed? Maybe I'm missing someting here but, possible DV perpetrator... goes the full nine-yards and actually (possibly?) commits a domestic homicide, 'welllllllll shieeeeeeeeeet, feel sorry for the guy ya know?' What am i missing?

That said, I lol'd a couple of times in this thread >_<

Summers was blatantly referring to Pistorious in the context of it being a case of mistaken identity.

It does however now appear increasingly likely that he shot her dead for other reasons, sadly.

That's what I assumed was the explanation (after consideration) but because he made his comment before the suggestion of mistaken identity had been made I had to ask to clarify as I am pedantic.

Humbly thank you kind sir!

Hi Lukie, thank you for replying to my message. Could you please send me a copy of the TEW 08 version then? I guess it would be better than the TEW 05 one anyway, thanks a lot for your help, and for the work you put into the mod

Hi everyone, does anyone have a copy of either the TEW 05 or TEW 08 Moeru Toukon puroresu mods? Or know where they can be downloaded?

I've looked all over the place, all the old places it was hosted are down, and all the current TEW sites that host mods dont have a copy, now that TEW 05 is free, can anyone help me find it ppppppppplease?

Thanks a lot.
