I've come up with an idea for a "Federation Companian" handbook that, basically, would be a behind the scenes booklet with charts and options for day to day happenings in a given federation.
It would feature things like:
Wrestlers using performance enhancing drugs that would help a wrestler, a higher power rating, a pin decrease, ect. but would also leave them open to a drug testing program. If caught, these wrestlers culd be suspended.
Substance abuse problems which would hurt a wrestlers' in ring performance. Also could be found out with testing.
Backstage happenings. Things like backstage romances, wrestlers gaining power with the upper ups, booking committee problems, cliqs getting formed, contracts being disputed leading to wrestler hold outs, wrestlers getting outside sponserships or doing movies, commericals, ect. which would lead to effecting popularity, wrestlers causing troubles backstage, fighting ect, wrestlers getting arrested for things.
Stuff like that. Anyone interested in helping out, or if you have any ideas or suggestions, let me know. I'm envisioning something like a ringside companian but a chart based, "if you roll this, go to this chart" kind of thing.

This is a great idea, I love it. I'd even go further to have a section for an angle section for people to go from in case they run out of ideas for in between match stuff for feuds and filler.

Right now I am working on a "Real World Incident Companion" which has charts for things wrestlers have to deal with on a day to day basis. Like a Transportation Problems chart (completed), Bar and Hotel incidents (Just an idea) and Dealing With Fans chart (Just an idea - would be dealing with annoying fans) I also wanting to make a "Backstage Incidents" Companion that has charts like Fights Backstage (started working on a chart for that), Cliques and stuff like that. Looking for thoughts and ideas on this.

Okay, so this is what I have so far. I was thinking you roll two dice on both the Real World Companion and The Backstage Companion before every card that you run. The result is what chart you roll on for that particular show. There is going to be a chart from 2 to 12 in both companions. I just need to figure out charts for both companions. So this is what I have so far, it's not much but it's a start. This is the Transportation Chart. Any suggestions for changes is welcomed.
Transportation Trouble Chart
This chart is used when a wrestler (choose at random unless otherwise stated) may not be able to make an appearance at your next event. Roll two dice and follow the instructions on that outcome.
2. The wrestler will be late to the event due to weather conditions as his/her flight was canceled. You must reshuffle the card for that event to allow the wrestler to make the show.
3. The wrestler calls you before the show and says he broke down and is at the side of the road. Roll 1 Die. If Even he manages to make the event, if odd he must be replaced on the show.
4. Half of a tag team is not able to make the card. The tag match is now a singles match between the remaining tag partner and one half of the other tag team. Or you can make it a handicap match.
5. The Wrestler gets lost on his/her way to the event. They do not make the show. Choose a suitable replacement.
6. The Wrestler gets pulled over and has his car impounded. They will miss the event. Choose a suitable replacement.
7-9 Everyone shows up at the event without incident. Play out your show without worry!
10. A car full of wrestlers have car trouble. Choose four wrestlers to miss the event and reschedule the show with either replacements or match reshuffling.
11. Your main event wrestler is unable to make the show due to a missed flight. You must postpone the main event to the next show and reshuffle the show to accommodate the wrestler not being able to make the show.
12. The wrestler gets in a serious car wreck and is unable to make the card. Roll two dice to determine the number of cards they are out injured.

Two things - 1. Is my chart actually good? 2. Is there actual interest in this?
