Is it me or does it seem in some of the matches there is a certain chemistry in matches with certain legends. I mean its more of an even flow, while other matches seem to be a bit rougher? Just thought that was interesting.

Sometimes it can be predictable. For example, if you pit two wrestlers with just one down on level-3 defence, you will be in for a long match.
But I get what you mean. I haven't had an exciting match recently (ie. plenty of pin attempts, turnarounds, etc.). I guess it's trial and error with the booking.

This is a very good thread.
I almost feel just as in actual booking that two wrestlers with styles or in this case cards that compliment each other can put on an exciting match while others will be much more difficult.
Which is why the dice always provide that unpredictable element of surprise.

Same goes for tag-team partners as well.
Two cards that had really great chemistry for me were Harley Race and Nick Bockwinkel. As opponents, I was always assured they'd put on a classic match.
As far as tag-teams go, no team has had better chemistry for me than the Valiants. For whatever reason, those two cards complimented each other well in the ring.
I got some consistently good matches out of Sabu and Delirious.
And Rikidozan seems capable of doing a good match with most cards. In my fed, he often starts out taking a beating but slowly fights his way back into the action.
He's had great matches with Mil Mascaras. One of which earned him my Legends Cup. That one was a near hour-long nail biter.
Rikidozan is one of those cards I was "meh" about to begin with because I wasn't very familiar with him. But he's won me over in a big way. In my fed, Rikidozan is the man. Certainly beatable. But always a good flow to his matches.

When it comes to tag team partners, I put together after a short feud between one another of Cowboy Bob Orton and Frank Gotch managed by Bobby Heenan and they have the longest title reign going since I've been playing. These two men have a great chemistry for me and continue to work well together, I've also put together the team of Danny Hodge and Antonino Rocca known as H-n-R Block and they are a good team of chemistry, maybe not as good as Orton and Gotch, but they are solid none the less.

Chemistry just sort of happens. I put Hutton and Rocca together as a team one night, not expecting much. I was just trying to fill out a card. They turned out to be a very good team together and even held some regional gold.
Currently put Rogers and George together as the Hollywood Blondes. While not as succesful, their matches are always fun.
I guess don't be afraid to experiment a bit, never know when something might "click".

Rocca and DiPaolo clicked with me big time. I had a lot of success with Gorgeous George and Buddy Rose as well for a tag team.

D'Lo Brown & Al Snow could be a good pairing. I gave them a match against The Love Brothers and they took it to them, going all the way to a time-limit draw. If, like boxing, a points decision had to be made, I would have given it to Brown & Snow.
So, anyone else, team them up and tell us how they do for you.
