They took Roderick Strong, Jay Briscoe (who was one half of the Tag Team Champions and the TV Champion) and Kevin Steen while he was still world champ. No matter, they released Jeff Jarrett, and Angle quit because of being mistreated, according to my in game e-mails.
I'm gonna use Jarrett to put Sami Callihan over, and Angle to put John Morrison over (despite Morrison being a heel) in preparation for his world title match against Kenny Omega.
At this point Omega's held the title for nearly two years, so I want his reign to end in a bang. So, I signed him to a written contract (along with Sami Callihan, Davey Richards and Jimmy Jacobs) to ensure the title doesn't get vacated like it did with Steen's reign... that traitorous bastard. Will Morrison win the belt? Probably not. I'm building up Prince Devitt, so he'll be getting a run eventually, but the most likely person to win it from Kenny is the "Zombie Princes" Jimmy Jacobs. He's hot off a feud with Adam Cole which involved him turning face and Cole turning heel (Bret-Austin FTW), and he's my #3 Babyface according to Sophie (she's so helpful, purrdy too).
Also, after actually putting on a **** match with Takeshi Morishima, Mike Knox may actually be able to keep his job in ROH. I'll probably have him put over Mike Mondo when he returns from the groin injury KENTA gave him. Then I'll build up Mondo's overness through angles, interviews, and beating guys with high overness that I won't be using (like Charlie Haas), then when he's nice and over, I'll bleed him dry and put over as many talented guys as possible.
And then there's the situation the the titles. The World Title and the TV Title are both at 85 image, and Sami Callihan (TV Champ) is not only just as over as Kenny Omega, but also, he's apparently our top draw, since he has the Superstar Look and high Charisma. Seems like I'm gonna have to do a good ol' Unification match. Jeyzus, Kenny Omega vs. Sami Callihan for the Undisputed ROH Championship.

Just completed my latest monthly event FSW Blood & Guts on my TEW UK save. This was actually on PPV through the Online Stream and drew an incredible 1,958 buys! The game quoted me an attendance of 7,050 so I only booked the 5,000 seat arena (the Liverpool Olympia) and you better believe I was relieved when only 4,750 people showed up. Here's the results from a show where every match was a gimmick match:
Primo & Epico def. Antonio Cesaro & Jinder Mahal in a Tag Title Shot Contract on a Pole Match (Grade: C-) Nothing much to say here, decent match to kick off the show. Primo & Epico have a lot of team experience and are good wrestlers so I can build them up. Cesaro & Mahal will probably say as a team too, they're good future prospects.
Ken Shamrock def. Magnus in an MMA Fight (Grade: C) The feud between Shamrock and the Mag-Daddy hasn't set FSW on fire, like the Lashley/Shamrock feud did. It's decent but unspectacular which is a shame. It'll continue for a bit though and will hopefully click better.
Kevin Nash & Scott Hall def. The Briscoes in a Tables match to retain the UK Tag Team Titles (Grade: C) This feud is kinda boring to me, and the fanbase seem to find it the same way. It's just sorta there, not bad yet not good. I think Hall is dragging everything down, because the Briscoes have workrate and Nash is a HUGE STAR so he can't be the problem...
Chavo Guerrero, Jr. def. Jerry Lynn in a Ladder match to win the UK Television Championship (Grade: C+) Damn good match between these two, I gave them 20 minutes and they delivered. Nash & Hall helped Chavo get the victory and Chavo is now an official member of The Band as well as the new TV Champ.
Drew McIntyre def. Bobby Lashley in a Chain match (Grade: C) Threw this on the card last minute when I signed McIntyre just to give him a win and some exposure. He's still a heel but he's very over in the Scottish market so I may turn him face at some point.
Big Show def. Kane in a Lethal Lockdown match (Grade: B-) Trust my HUGE Attitude Era names to get the B grades flowing. I don't know exactly what a 1 v 1 Lethal Lockdown match is, I assume it's more of a Cage with Weapons match. Either way they did well enough for two big guys with 15 minutes to work with. Show got the win as he is ridiculously over (A grade all over the world in popularity, amazingly enough). They shook hands after the match and will go after the UK Tag belts soon enough.
Kurt Angle def. Jeff Jarrett in a No DQ match (Grade: B+) Very good match between these two as you'd expect. I gave them 25 mins to play with and they didn't let me down. Angle now faces the UK Heavyweight Champion next month at my Northern Rebellion PPV in Newcastle, England.
Ric Flair def. Batista in a Cage match to win the UK Heavyweight Championship (Grade: C+) I only gave them 15 minutes but even that was too long as they were both exhausted by the end of it. It was as good as I'd expect though. Flair got the belt only 25 days after Batista won it because Big Dave signed a pay-per-appearance deal with WWE. I had to protect the UK Heavyweight Championship belt, no one man is bigger than it! Flair vs. Angle is now in place for Newcastle.
Overall the show got a C+ so there's plenty of room for improvement. Still it made money this month which is what I truly cared about. I also got a bunch of A grade angles in a 10 minute hype video for Angle, Big Show's limo arrival, Batista shaking Flair's hand after the main event and then my first ever A* grade for Flair's title celebration to close the show, so all of that was pleasing.
Now I move forward to my first episode of my new TV show FSW Revolution, which airs on the Extreme Sports Channel in the UK and all of Europe, which is a sweet deal. So sweet I cancelled my Adrenaline show on Adrenalize TV as soon as possible...
Just finished WrestleMania 29. Dean Ambrose vs. Sheamus was for the WHC and Rock vs. Cena for the WWE title. I didn't used feuds so that's why the overall rating was so low.
Might get lost in the shuffle, but here's my latest CZW ppv and man, was it an exciting show. The fans got what they paid for: another solid PPV in Nasty Habits (I panicked the day before the PPV about the name, because I hadn't actually planned any form of tournament for Tournament of Death, so I just renamed it to the song I was listening to).
Firstly, Knox beat Jushin Liger. Standard Knox match - arrives at PPV, goes over legend in gimmick match (twas a last man standing match), gives 'em a beatdown, stands tall. I'd actually almost forgotten to book Knox on this show with all the excitement I had building to this, but then I gave myself a stern slap upside the head and bumped a match down to the pre-show. I just can't neglect Knox.
The main hype for the PPV was definately the Mahal-Ambrose feud. I went for something a bit different for this feud and had Jinder Mahal, with the Hero gimmick, try to woo the lovely Stacy Keibler. Over the course of about 3 weeks the CZW fans were captivated by the love story between Jinder Mahal and Stacy Keibler. When Jinder proposed on CZW on Fox, it was a real feelgood moment. The wedding was set for the PPV but then! 'Mailman Ambrose' hits the ring, interrupts the wedding and kidnaps Stacy Keibler. That dastardly postal worker!
Main event of Tournament of Death set: Mailman Ambrose vs Jinder 'The CZW hero' Mahal - winner gets Stacy Keibler's heart. Or something.
Also on the show was the end of the David Flair v Sami Callihan feud which was unbelievably successful. I think it got up to 87 heat towards the end, which is damn impressive, considering David Flair is shit and it was a midcard feud. Flair obviously went over after Sami Callihan injures himself for 7 months taking a sick bump in a high incident match - takes one for the benefit of David Flair's main event push. Good man.
Dr Cube also went over Zack Sabre Jr clean to end their feud, even though Sabre Jr is about 3 times the better wrestler than Dr Cube. He just doesn't have the gimmick though. Dr Cube is on his way to the main event. No-one will know what hits them.

In my FSW UK game, WWE have realised what a massive threat I am surely on my way to becoming in the wrestling industry and they've taken action. First off they signed Batista, Jarrett and Angle to pay-per-appearance contracts and then they signed Rhino and Tag champ Kevin Nash to written deals. No idea why they did it that way round. Either way my reformation of The Band is pretty much dead since Hall, X-Pac and Chavo is a fucking horrible stable on paper
I've still got Nash for a week so he and Hall can drop the belts to Primo & Epico for all I care. Nash will complain but fuck Nash, that traitor. He ruined the Nash & Hall / Briscoes feud as well, but I hardly cared about that anyway.
WWE have also being booking all their TV shows in the UK for the past few weeks. Vince, you need to stay away from my territory damnit!

Fucking Nash man, he signed with that corporate WWE for the money rather than do it for the love of British wrestling!
And it almost seems like you've single handedly revived the British wrestling scene (with all your ex-WWE/WCW talents).
Did WWE sign Batista, Jarrett and Angle to exclusive PPA deals or do you still get to use them?
