Totally understand your points, Sneezy, but Cagematch is also a great resource for research on IPW and who has teamed with who, or who has faced who over the years. While clearly nothing will beat the excellent handbook we all know Chad will produce, it is certainly a good starting point

I haven’t had much luck with the first couple guys I tried—I did see that Brent Filmore had a feud over the Ladies’ Championship for a while…

While clearly nothing will beat the excellent handbook we all know Chad will produce, it is certainly a good starting point Cagematch is OK, but it is definitely a limited resource. For example, Viva Van (who I am going to see wrestle tomorrow night in FSW) I believe currently has 6 different regional championships but Cagematch currently only lists her as holding 3 championships (and I know that is not correct as she posted a photo within the past week or so with 5 or 6 different belts around her.) In the case of IPW I think Cagematch is particularly limited. For one thing, Cagematch lists no IPW results at all for 2023 and the only IPW show results for 2022 I saw there was for last year's Waterloo show. I also learned while doing the editing for this set that Cagematch does not have a titles tab for IPW that they have for many feds. By clicking on match results for either an event or for an individual wrestler, you can see some title changes that way but a title tab would of course make that information much easier and quicker to access.

I haven’t seen too many people complaining about the ROH sets that didn’t have handbooks, I guess no one used those cards. I appreciate your advocacy, malicelover, but most other promotions have a TV/online presence so folks are familiar already with the wrestlers and their feuds/alliances. I think Sneezy's comments are very valid. There's a lot of scattered IPW stuff out there across Youtube. Maybe Cory Olson can help with a thread on that info when he has some time, or I can take a stab at it when I get done with the IPW book. I will try to sort out some of the best IPW matches with IPW wrestlers in the game and put together a thread soon.

Honestly, my biggest concern was trying to figure out if TS Aggressor's finisher was a pin or submission move... Many thanks to Chad Olson for getting this info out there in a timely fashion. Truth!

Just in case Chad's handbook description wasn't clear, TS's finisher is the same as the Roll of The Dice that Reno used to use in WCW. TS defined it that way to me when I was putting together his card. Thanks, brother, for putting together the handbook!

I struggle with using named moves like Roll of the Dice as a descriptor, because some may not know what that was. I had to check it on Youtube to make sure it was what I was thinking of. Same with Sage's Full Nelson Flatliner and Jordyn's Destino.
