I think this is something we could do as a whole group next year for like PWI. I say the whole year because we could put Nominations up throughout the year and then keep a running track of the big ones.

Consider Andre a freelancer, you just get to do the booking through the WWF like it was in real life.

That'd something you work out with him. I'd suggest pming each promotion and give us dates and people you'd like.

No... only Hansen, Brody, Abdullah, and Mascaras. You'll have to work out the rest of your gaijin to come tour. GordI did a great job of saying when his tours were and pming us to get the tours set. I'd recommend you follow that to supplement when the freelancers are set to come over.

Which in theory is great however you have guys like the Bulldogs who were WWF guys that went to AJPW while the others went to NJPW. Then you have the individuals who we have on our rosters who are touring talents who weren't initially with our promotions back in the 80s. I really think the best thing is what Gordi has done. Plain and simple. He has reached out to us and given us his touring schedule. If Thunderlips does that, he will get the same kind of response and we will give him the talent needed to make his tours special. When Bulldogs went to AJPW, they left the WWF. I understand, I just have a couple of other guys who would fall into that same type of thing. So as the WWF, I would have agreements with both AJPW and NJPW. I am more than willing to help them the best I can.

Or maybe only get them for the tour and do a little draft type thing or something along those lines from tour to tour

Exactly. I will just need your guys help putting together those lists for the Japanese talent.

The problem with that is that the Japanese promotions aren't allowed to be in the fresh face draft. I have said this multiple times... we are not going to give up US talent to come over and be Japan exclusive. There are Japanese free agents and fresh faces. We will work out those details. It is simply part of the process. There are a ton of Japanese wrestlers who debut in 85 and 86. If we figure out a way for them to be part of it... we can add you guys in the draft but only allow you to pick from the Japanese talent.

I think there was still some discussion to be had regarding the freelancers... in January it will be Brody, Hansen, Abdullah, and Mil Mascaras. Andre goes to the WWF (even though he'll tour) and MACW got Funk. All Japan Stan Hansen 3/29/85 - 4/25/85 , 5/10/85 - 5/16/85 , 6/28/85 - 7/31/85 , 8/23/85 - 8/31/85 , 11/23/85 - 12/12/85 Bruiser Brody 2/22/85 - 3/14/85 For New Japan Bruiser Brody 4/18 - 10/4-10/31, 11/15 - 12/11 These are now just details in which everyone can work out the other customizable parts. Thunderlips - I know you've been gone and this just kind of happened, but as long as you are, everyone is willing to work to make it out. I have guys already booked to New Japan and I plan on keeping a lot of the guys available for you for All Japan... just talk to us and we'll get it figured out.

Understand that the freelancers like Hansen will keep those predetermined dates. This change is for American promtions. You have complete control over your promotion and tours. You can keep them the same but now you work out deals to have Americans come over.

No problem. Get well and do work when you can.

I think it is your call. In reality you can pick those types of things... I think it does add some realism to the whole realm of things.

Awesome stuff all around. I would encourage communication with everyone to get these dates set up. Let's talk it out and get it figured out.

I misinterpreted this statement early when I saw it. For Japan, they can start whenever... but the plausible day would be in January. That way they could book the tour and then get the guys lined up for it. Since we are going Custom tour approach... it would behoove them to put some schedules together for us to work from. What i would recommend is going based off the tours in which the freelancers are going to be there, since those are set in stone for the most part. However, if we want to swap that up and make it completely customizable, we can go that route.

I am so excited about New Japan coming in. I am going to insert that comment for every new promotion because it is truly making this game better than it has ever been. With the hierarchy, with the tours, with the customization, this could be a great way for Japan to take over the wrestling world in 1985.

I am pumped to bring in Mexico to our game world. It can be such a different vibe than Japan or the US. With the honor that goes into Mexican wrestling, these shows will be can't miss.

We have been talking a lot about the Japanese and Mexican expansion while you continue to hold down the fort in Canada. Even with the move to the NWA, the WWF still looms in the background Great stuff from Lutte and I like the small spot shows you have popping up. Some really fun matches and good combinations.

USWA continues to rise to the top with so many of the top stars in wrestling in one spot. I like Edgar and really looking forward to what happens with this Gordy and Hayes feud. With something with that kind of heat... it is hard to keep both guys around after so much hatred.

I am ready for Starrcade and what may end up being a changing of the guard or the solidification of the greatest world champion in wrestling. Flair is on top of the world right now but you've got Barry and Magnum both coming up fast....
