Are you using him as a wrestler or manager?

Are you using him as a wrestler or manager? Manager. I use his distractor rating to indicate him yelling some tip at Backlund that lets him break the pin or submission hold. |

Wrestler. Manager is more when I need something for a storyline.

I was able to help get Arnold signed to the game. As such this post makes me very happy! I'm look forward to reading this thread!
As a former manager myself, I'll primarily use him as a manager.
I'll occasionally put him in matches to set up bigger matches or feuds for Bob Backlund. And of course, he'll be used for occasional tag or six man matches.
Happy holidays to all and congrats to Filsinger Games, the staff and promoters on a most stellar year!

I'll use him as a wrestler first.
Then he'll join Backlund.

Gunslinger, that's definitely how I would see Arnold getting involved if you use his Distractor Rating or roll on the Manager Interference Chart; I seem him yelling encouragement or telling the official about the heel cheating. I have used Ed "Strangler" Lewis as a manager for Lou Thesz in my USWA, based on their real-life manager-wrestler alliance, in a similar way. |

Are you using him as a wrestler or manager? Yes. Well, technically I have not used him yet but that is the plan. Use him as both. Not sure exactly in what way yet but I will have it figured out before I introduce him. Of course, the dice might change those plans as they tend to do. |

Manager rating makes sense for him and Lord Nexus for sure.
