I'm in the process of changing back to playing with physical cards instead of Online. That process will conclude next week and then I will be back to playing Legends like I did a decade ago. I haven't had a stable promotion regular Legends promotion since 2014 I believe so I didn't want to jinx this one until it had a little time running. So the good news is, I have been running this since May of last year and had 24 weeks of TV.
There will be a weekly TV show, quarterly PPV and then random house shows when I feel like I want to run on an off night and don't want to do my GWF/CWF promotion.
Champions Roll Call:
NWA World Heavyweight Champion: Lou Thesz
NWA World Tag Team Champions: Road Warriors
NWA World Junior Heavyweight Champion: Danny Hodge
NWA United States Champion: Diamond Dallas Page
NWA United States Tag Team Champions: Rock N Roll Express
NWA World Television Champion: 2 Cold Scorpio
NWA Brass Knuckles Champion: Big Van Vader
NWA Women's Champion: Sherri Martel
I'll get a title history page up this week.

The story so far:
Dan Severn defeated Lou Thesz by DQ in January during a World Title match. Since Severn and his manager Jim Cornette have been targeting shooters and legit grapplers like Ed "Strangler" Lewis, John Pesek and George Tragos. Win or lose Severn has been trying to injure them in the post match. Thesz has not been amused by this antics and has been calling Severn a low class bully and Cornette a fool. Thesz has agreed to face Severn in a rematch for the title at WrestleWar.
A masked man has been attacking Randy Savage for a number of weeks. Savage claims to know who the masked attacker is but Savage hasn't been able to get the jump on him so far.
Mr. Fuji and the Powers of Pain target the NWA World Tag Team Titles. Mr. Fuji claims The Barbarian and Warlord are superior to the Road Warriors in nearly every way. The Road Warriors refute these claims but the Powers of Pain have held their own in the few physical encounters these teams have had so far.
Sherri Martel issued an open challenge for her NWA Women's Championship which was later accepted by Trish Stratus. Martel hasn't taken this lightly and even cost Trish a match against Ida Mae Martinez.
The Destroyer has returned to the NWA and he's aiming for championship success. Diamond Dallas Page has agreed to put the United States Title on the line at WrestleWar. Both men have talked a little trash but they have kept it clean otherwise out of mutual respect.
Jerry Lynn has been aiming for revenge against Chris Candido. Candido beat him senseless with Tammy Lynn Sytch's loaded purse after a match. Lynn has vowed to even the score.

Have to admire the dedication you've shown this project... Playing for several months without posting any results... Nice work!
The clean format is right on the money and it looks like you're building up some really fun angles... Especially like what you've got going with Severn and Cornette, leading into a big title match against Thesz... Plus, Savage vs. Piper is a catastrophe waiting to happen... BOOM!

Your feds are another one of the many great feds on this board. I’ve always been intrigued by how have run your different incarnations of the NWA. I’m curious about what kind of roster size you are working with ? Do you wrestlers working certain shows ? I’m always looking for ways to maximize the amount of wrestlers I use but also not be overwhelmed by the roster size.

Your feds are another one of the many great feds on this board. I’ve always been intrigued by how have run your different incarnations of the NWA. I’m curious about what kind of roster size you are working with ? Do you wrestlers working certain shows ? I’m always looking for ways to maximize the amount of wrestlers I use but also not be overwhelmed by the roster size. So this is a varied question. This is the third version of the NWA. There was a version that ran from 2004-2008, one that ran from 2010-2015 and the current version. Variety of reasons those promotions fell off and it was mostly just real life getting in the way. I usually stick to Saturday TV. As far as booking, minus this current promotion, you can usually tell what I have been watching a lot of at the time. I was knee deep in JCP and WCW during the 2010-2015 fed and if you go dig up some of my results from that it's going to feel like watching an episode of World Championship Wrestling from the 80s. The current promotion, it's more old school in approach. I will protect guys and it will probably feel like old JCP and some NWA Powerrr. But there's a bit more modern sensibility thrown in there as well. This promotion probably mimics the least style wise. I also store my W-L records so I try to reward guys who are doing well. The roster isn't set in stone. I book very territory style. I have my regulars that will always be around. But guys might come and go in a matter of weeks. A guy might come in as a tag partner or come in looking for a bounty and then move on after they have done that match. I also will use some guys for house shows that I haven't been using. A good example is Abby from the house show. I just thought that match would be fun, I don't really use Abby on TV currently. I would say I probably have 20-25 guys that are consistently used and then it's whatever guys I happen to be using. If you have a guy and he's just treading water or you just don't have a good idea for him, stop using him. He can always come back down the road if you get an idea for him. |
