But if that were the case, this wouldn’t be a simulation.) The only goals are the ones you set. (However, I almost wish Ryland would have made it so that you could not control the WWE that the ultimate goal was to cripple the global empire. There is no end goal installed by the designer, Adam Ryland. Which, as far as I can tell, is the only way this game can end. It’s a nasty downward spiral if I ever saw one, ultimately leading to your termination and the end of the game. Without a show, the workers can’t get over and the unhappier they’ll become.

The unhappier the network, and your show gets cancelled. The lower the ratings, the unhappier the network. The fewer fans who tune it, the lower the ratings. The worse their matches get, the fewer fans who tune in. The lower their moral, the worse their matches get. If booked poorly, with one man getting victory after victory or ended too quickly, one or both of the workers will suffer and their morale will drop. If booked properly, hopefully both men will get over and rise from the upper midcard to the main event. Maybe the (virtual) Benoit sees something, some potential chemistry that will benefit both men by the time you chose to end the feud. (No pun intended… and how many people actually got that?) Then again, maybe Benoit will use the in-game e-mail system to let you know that he wants to work with Nash. That means booking angles and feuds between men (or women, no need to be sexist here) of similar in-ring styles.įor instance, one wouldn’t necessarily place the lumbering brawler Kevin Nash into a feud with the technically sound Chris Benoit, if only because their styles clash. Where the fun, skill, and challenge lies is not only in increasing your company’s popularity, but getting your workers over and keeping the fans happy. Because of their popularity, fans (virtual or not) will shell out the cash to watch these men compete, thus keeping the McMahon empire afloat and your virtual job as head booker stable. It’s all too easy to take control of the WWE, with established stars such as Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, Triple H, and Chris Jericho, and keep them at the top. Then again, maybe you want to be at the helm of the WWE, and crush every promotion, not matter how big or small, under your thumb. Or maybe you want to take NWA-TNA, IWA Mid-South, or ROH all the way to the top and do what no company has been able to do - destroy Vince McMahon’s WWE. With you as the head booker, Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW), World Championship Wrestling (WCW), or even American Wrestling Association (AWA) can rise from the ashes and regain their former glory. A simple text-based wrestling simulation that puts you in control of whatever company (fictional or reality-based) you chose. This is a real shame, because some of these regional promotions have true talent that, given the chance, could rival the WWE’s top guys in not only ring skills but popularity.Īnd this is where Extreme Warfare Revenge (EWR) comes in. So even though I want to watch other wrestling promotions, I want to see them survive and grow and bring true competition to the stale WWE, it’s not fiscally viable. Ring of Honor (ROH) hardly ever come this far west, so, again, catching a live show is next to impossible. Spending each and every weekend traveling around to support IWA Mid-South isn’t feasible. More accurately, I’m a fan of the WWE, if only because I can’t afford the weekly Pay-Per-View produced by NWA-TNA. Saying I’m a “wrestling fan” is a bit misleading. As a teacher I’m obviously educated, but, to most, admitting I’m a wrestling fan casts a long, dark shadow over any degree I hold, doesn’t it? But never mind that. I tell you this because I want you to understand where I’m coming from.

Because there’s this ill-conceived notion that everyone who watches “sports entertainment” is either a child or a fat schlub, jaws drop when people learn how much I love to watch my weekly doses of WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment). Lastly, I’m an Adjunct Professor in the Fiction Writing Department of Columbia College Chicago, and a wrestling fan. I’m the editor of two literary websites ( and ), two literary journals ( Blue and Hair Trigger 25), as well as the Multimedia section of this very site.

Instead, linked here is a glossary of terms.įirst, a little about me: my name is Michael David Sims and I hold both a BA and MFA in Creative Writing. So as not to interrupt the flow of piece, time will not be taken to explain each term. Note: Throughout this review I will frequently use wrestling jargon.
