You have a point. But what about the wrestlers that aren't in the game?

You have a point. But what about the wrestlers that aren't in the game?

You mean pretty much 80-90% of their roster, thats another reason for not adding them.

If you can give stats for some top talent from your region they can be added but i dont want to flood the database with talent in a region with very few promotions.

In another note i'm looking at removing Pro Wrestling Revolution, last show i can find info on was in September which puts it forward as one to keep an eye on, if doesnt put on some shows soon it might get dropped for somewhere more active.

also as part of my clean up i have come across the following who could be removed due to havent not wrestled in ages or of little to no value in 2010/11.

911

Big Guido

Botswana Beast

Iceberg

Kurrgan

Nailz

The Hungarian Barbarian

Vicky Skeeles

Demus 3:16 should have goth as his two gimmicks and have his profile for both himself and CMLL changed to "A former mini luchadore with good high flying skills, Has held the CMLL Mini's Title but upgraded to the full size roster after winning the 2010 Torneo Bicentenario Tournament" His main finisher should be Ultramana (pinfall) and his other finisher should be Martinete (pinfall)

One question I have in regards to most Mexican wrestlers, most are set to very religious which with my understanding is that it nullifies the other problems (Drink, Drug, Steroids & Law) now would you say that’s realistic.

[EddieG]

why the pic pack link isn't working?

My site is fixed so the pic pack should be too.

[Guest The Phenomenal Red]

Can Pro Wrestling Fusion and possibly Lucha VaVOOM be added to the game. A majority of the Fusion crew is in the game and VaVOOM has a lot of guys under different names and gimmicks.

Lucha VaVOOM was included but due to the fact they don’t do shows often since I added them I have seen no reports of them doing any shows hence they were removed.

Fusion could be in line to be added just set me up with some stats for people missing and I’ll add them in, SMASH is another promotion I want to add its just missing most people.

Alot of Fusion's talent is in the game: Tommy Taylor (just retired but still their champ,) Amy Vitale, Brad Attitude, Bruce Santee, Chris Gray(in the game as Christopher Gray,) Chris Jones, Craig Classic, Erick Stevens, Francisco Ciasto, Homicide, Jon Davis, Kory Chavis, Mike Shane, Nooie Lee, Phil Davis, Prince Iuakea, Roderick Strong, Scoot Andrews, Sean Davis, Sinn Bohdi, Stacy Carter, The Sheik, TJ Perkins, Titan(in the game as Mike Jarvi,) Todd Shane and Too Cold Scorpio

Not sure, as a culture they are BUT you still had several wrestlers die of ODs in Mexico, notably La Parkita and Espectrito II (that were later lampooned on 1000 Ways To Die) it is hard to say.

[TheWho87]

Sounds like might be best to remove from all then add/keep it on those who truly are religious.

In regards to Fusion they can most likely take the place of Pro Wrestlign Revolution.

- Remove Lamar Braxton Porter from FCW.

[Tyrone]

- Change Cody Rhodes secondary finisher from Silver Spoon DDT to Beautiful Disaster

- Make John Morrison's primary Starship Pain and I'm not sure what to do with the secondary. He's been all over the place lately. He's been using the C4 (which he hasn't named yet!) a lot lately, but recently he's used the running knee smash and even the Flash Kick to finish off his opponents.

EDIT: Now I've heard that the knee smash is the Flash Kick, but I swear I heard Cole say it after Morrison executed the (former?) Flying Chuck

-Deactivate The Enigmatic Assholes & Team 3D

-- It was reported this week that WWE developmental wrestler Verity Thomas (real name Vickie Skeeles), a recently signed women's grappler from the U.K., was removed from the roster page of the official website of Florida Championship Wrestling.

Skeeles announced on her Twitter account today that she decided to part ways with World Wrestling Entertainment over Thanksgiving weekend, citing locker room politics.

She wrote: "Yes guys I have been removed from the FCW page. I have decided, during thanksgiving break, to move on from wrestling-too many locker room politics. Life is meant for living and being happy&cheery; I'm a positive girl who doesn't need negativity in her life. I will still be modelling and doing appearances. Thank you for all your support but now I would LOVE you to support my girl Sonia, she is a fantastic worker and one of my very very special friends- I love her to bits and I you should too. Love you all and keep smiling because I still am!"

-Remove Vicky Skeeles from FCW. Change her to Left The Business (?).

-Add Protege relationship between Shane Hollister & Danny Daniels. Daniels trained him.

EDIT: Now I've heard that the knee smash is the Flash Kick, but I swear I heard Cole say it after Morrison executed the (former?) Flying Chuck

I've only seen him to the C4 against Tyson Kid or wrestlers of his size. I'd use the running knee as his finisher which according to wikipedia is of yet, unnamed.

[StarshipPain]

Nah I would make the Flash Kick (Springboard Enzuigiri) his secondary finisher. He used it to defeat Sheamus recently among others. To my recollection, his running knee has never finished a match

[Syrjis]

From Wrestlingobserver.com:

King Curtis Iaukea, a legend in Hawaiian wrestling and a huge star in the 60s and 70s, passed away today in Honolulu. We have no other details other tha he passed away at home with his wife and two daughters.

Iaukea, a 300-pounder who was a football star at the University of California, headlined virtually everywhere in the world during his long career as a headliner, known for feuding in particular with Mark Lewin in a number of circuits and being in bloody matches.

He was a mentor to many in wrestling and was considered to be among the best interviews in the history of the business.

Iaukea, 73, had been ill for several months.

-Remove Vicky Skeeles from FCW. Change her to Left The Business (?).

Due to the fact she barely did anything in wresting in the first place she will most likley be removed.

The Flash Kick/Flying Chuck Kick are the same thing. He defeated Alberto Del Rio with it during the KOTR Tournament on RAW, and his Running Knee is what beat Sheamus at Survivor Series. He hit the Chuck Kick, then hit the Running Knee and won. I'm fairly sure it's how he also defeated Cody Rhodes in the KOTR Tournament.

[TheWho87]

Right lets clear the John Morrison moves up, according to WWE.com his signature moves are Starship Pain and Moonlight Drive which are what his main moves are set as, according to Wiki he rarely uses the Moonlight Drive since 2009 so i've replaced that on his WWE contract with Flying Chuck (Springboard roundhouse) for his secondary finisher.

[ThTmp4]

PWInsider.com is reporting that Samoa Joe's contract has expired with TNA Wrestling.

The word backstage is that Joe will work tonight's Final Resolution PPV and this week's set of Impact tapings while both sides negotiate a new deal.

So until we figure out what's up I say leave him with TNA until we've found out if Joe leaves or not.

[tougie]

Final Resolution Note

-Douglas Williams is the new TV Champion

Ricardo Rodriguez is working in FCW under his normal name Chimaera. Set him to a lower mid card face with a masked luchadore gimmick

Also, an injury has forced Wes Brisco and Xavier Woods to vacate the FCW tag titles. Titus O'Neil and Damien Sandow were named the new Tag Team Champs.

Set ODB to retired.

Not to be a pain, but it would probably make more sense to call it the Flash Kick, as that is what Michael Cole has been regularly calling it.
