| Several things are gonna be explained here so that there's full understanding regarding them. KOTR - Spoiler:
King of the Ring will be a yearly one-show event where each brand will get to enter wrestlers into a 16-person tournament. How many wrestlers each brand gets will be randomized. The shows preceding King of the Ring will feature qualifiers to decide who goes into the tournament, per brand.
Royal Rumble (lengthy explanation) - Spoiler:
Similarly, the yearly Royal Rumble matches will feature qualifiers, as well. However, in the Royal Rumbles (there will be one for men and one for women), each brand will get a specific amount of entrants. The men's rumble will have five entrants each from all six brands. The women's rumble will have six entrants each, as 205 Live doesn't roster any women and won't be involved. Given the amount of women per brand, each show is allowed to have second chance matches for the women who don't initially qualify from their brand. Aside from that, the brands are free to go about their qualifying matches as they please.
As for how the rumble match itself works, it goes like this. Entrance order will be randomized (outside of the possibility of matches that happen before the Rumble to determine stuff like who gets to come out at #30). A wrestler's rating will act as their "lives". Once a wrestler enters the Rumble, their name is added into the random choosing program that Burdur uses multiplied by their rating. So, for instance, if a wrestler has a 9 rating, their name gets added 9 times. After the first two entrants come out, two names are pulled out from the program. Following that, names will be pulled at a certain pace dependent on how the overall numbers of the match. Like, say the match has an average wrestler rating of 6. 30 wrestlers in the match, with that as an average, equals about 180 names that go into the randomizer. So the pace would need to reflect that. The amount of names that get pulled will get bigger after every 10th entrant. So, using the example of a Rumble with about 180 names being pulled, here's an example of how it could go.
Burdur Edit Note: A superstar's overall rating = how many lives they have in a Royal Rumble or Elimination Chamber match. Every superstar's name gets added only one time but every time their name is picked by the generator they simply lose one of their lives.
Entrant #1: Ricochet (8 Rating)
Entrant #2: Luke Harper (7 Rating)
At the moment, Ricochet's name would be in the randomizer 8 times, while Luke Harper's is in it 7 times.
Two names are pulled before the next entrant. In this example, we'll say Ricochet's name gets pulled twice. His "lives" goes down to 6, now.
Entrant #3: Scott Dawson (6)
Scott's name is now added to the randomizer six times. From this entrant all the way to entrant #10 coming out, there's three names being pulled each time. So the three names that get pulled here, are 2 Scott Dawsons and 1 Luke Harper. Now, Ricochet is at 6, Luke is at 5, Scott is at 4. Another entrant comes out.
Entrant #4: The Undertaker (10)
Taker's name is added ten times. There's three more names pulled. This continues until after the tenth entrant comes out. Then, starting with the 11th entrant, there are 5 names being pulled instead of three. That continues until #20. When the 21st entrant comes, all the way until the 30th entrant comes, there are 7 names pulled. That is a total of 144 names pulled, since the beginning of the match, out of 180. At this point, names would just be pulled until everyone is eliminated except for one person. Naturally, once a person runs out of "lives", they're eliminated from the match.
If there's any questions about how that works, because it may seem a bit more confusing than I intended to explain it, ask them here.
Tag Team Chemistry & Championship Winners/Defenses - Spoiler:
Another thing I want to talk about in this thread is tag team chemistry. Each tag team (as in, a full team, not two people randomly paired together for one night. They have to be acknowledged to be a team (or part of a stable) for the brand they are on) has a chemistry bonus. The bonus points are added to the two wrestlers' combined rating when the randomizer chooses winners for a match. So, if a team has a wrestler with a 7 rating and one with a 6 rating, they get 13. But then if they have a chemistry bonus, they get that bonus added to the 13. Bonuses range from +1 to +5.
These are the chemistry bonuses for the tag teams that were available before the draft started. If you have any of these teams (even if it's just two members from one of the stables), that team gets the following bonuses.
Authors of Pain (Akam & Rezar): +3
Sanity (Alexander Wolfe & Killian Dain): +2
Street Profits (Angelo Dawkins & Montez Ford): +3
Enzo & Cass: +3
The New Day (Big E, Kofi Kingston, Xavier Woods): +4
New Age Outlaws (Billy Gunn, Road Dogg): +3
The B-Team (Bo Dallas & Curtis Axel): +1
The Undisputed Era (Adam Cole, Bobby Fish, Kyle O'Reilly, Roderick Strong): +5
The Dudleys (Bubba Dudly, D-Von Dudley): +5
Sheamus & Cesaro: +3
Hawkins & Ryder: +2
The Revival (Dash Wilder, Scott Dawson): +4
Dolph Ziggler & Bobby Roode: +1
The Colons (Epico Colon, Primo Colon): +3
War Raiders (Erik, Ivar): +4
Breezango (Fandango, Tyler Breeze): +3
The Hardy's (Jeff Hardy, Matt Hardy): +5
The Usos (Jey Uso, Jimmy Uso): +5
Lucha House Party (Kalisto, Sin Cara, Gran Metalik, Lince Dorado): +1
The Club (AJ Styles, Karl Anderson, Luke Gallows): +4
The Bludgeon Brothers (Harper & Rowan): +4
The Ascension (Konnor, Viktor): +3
Heavy Machinery (Otis, Tucker): +3
Outside of them, if you decide to make a different team from your brand, the team will start with a +1 chemistry rating. If you reunite a past tag team, they'll start with +2. Winning the tag team championships will automatically gain a team one more point and they gain another point for every three successful defenses. If they lose the titles, all the points gained from their championship reign are lost and they revert back to the points they had prior. Active tag teams who get at least 1 win, but are used every month, during the course of three months will gain a point. Teams not used over the course of three months or who don't get a win will lose a point.
Burdur Edit Note: Any champion [not just tag team titles] gains +1 point after winning the title and additional +1 for every 3 successful title defenses. When they lose the title, they revert back to original points.
+2 Weekly Boost - Spoiler:
Finally, a small thing known as the weekly boost. This allows a booker to use a 2 point boost to one person on their card each week. That person will have their name added to the randomizer an extra two times to give them a better chance of winning their match. It can only be used once per show and is a way to give a wrestler you really want to win a better chance.
MITB & Cash-ins - Spoiler:
MITB PPV will be once a year. There will be 3 MITB matches: World title, midcard & women's... each match will have 1 superstar representing each brand (after a qualifying match)
Cash-ins: When a superstar cashes in, they get +10 added to their overall & if it's a cash-in after a match the superstar that was just in the match also loses -3. Must specify that they're going to cash in before the show's results.
For the women, since there will only be 5 in the match (no women's division for Moose), there will be a 5-woman qualifying match at the start of the show to get a 6th MITB participant.
Battle Royals - Spoiler:
Battle Royal matches should be anywhere between 5 to 20 superstars. The winner will always be randomly drawn as one pick. For battle royals that include 10+ superstars in the match, you are able to but not required to elect that only 50% (rounded up) of the participants are able to actually win the match. For example, say you have a 15 person battle royal and you want to throw a couple jobbers in or even a couple bigger stars that you just do NOT want to see win this match. In this instance of a 15-man battle royal, you can cut out 7 superstars from having any chance of winning the match and the other 8 that you specify will be the only ones placed in the randomized wheel. As usual the overalls will still apply and a +2 weekly bonus is still possible to add for this match.

| ANNOUNCEMENTS
Shows & PPV's Announcement
On our solo shows and PPV's, there is no longer a set number of matches you must have per show. You are restricted a bit more loosely to 5-7 matches per show (promos/segments are optional and no limit to them). 6-8 matches per PPV.
Points overall rating system basic explanation:
Tag teams get chemistry points on a scale from: 1-5 points added to their overall in every match (newly formed tag team starts with +1, a past reunited tag team starts with +2)
+1 added to team chemistry every 3 months unless they did not get a win in that time (then stay pat). -1 if they were totally unused in that time period
If you team up a heel and face in a tag team match: -2 points for that team
Winning a championship: +1 to overall on ALL title defenses only. After 3 successful title defenses, that's another +1 (ie +2 total now) for every title defense only
Special elimination-type matches (Royal Rumble, Elimination Chamber, Survivor Series Elimination tag match) work by "lives" simulation rather than the typical simulation (all explained above). A regular elimination match or battle royal just works the same as any other match.
Expansion Draft Announcement
Every 3 months (...or so), we will hold an expansion draft. They will vary between different companies such as: NXT UK, NXT (ones we don't have already), ROH, NJPW, TNA, AEW.
First Draft: AEW
Time: Before the Raw after WrestleMania
Number of superstars in draft: 30
Draft picks per brand: 4
Brands expand by: 3 (can add 4 new picks & release one on roster)
Trading: Eligible before, during and after draft
Randomized Post-Mania Drafts
Every year after WrestleMania, there will be a randomized draft where each brands' superstars are able to get picked up by other brands. Basically, every brand will get one pick (at random) of each other GM's roster. Current champions & 5 other superstars that are chosen to be kept safe on the brand will be the only ones that are not eligible in the draft pool. Everyone else is up for grabs.
* If you pull one half of a tag team, it is up to you if you want one or both of them (if you want both, you'll have one extra spot on your roster and will need to release someone after the draft). NOTE: After WrestleMania, there will also not be a limit for male or female superstars, but simply a "maximum" number of male or female superstars they can have on the brand - which will be officially decided at a later date in another announcement.
* Other factors:
- The two WM battle royal winners will also be safe on their brand and furthermore, the winning brands in those matches will get 1 free pick each of ANYONE they want on anyone else's roster (that are not already safe).
- Any MITB holders will NOT be safe
Permanent Overall Increases
After (3) *MAJOR* (6-branded) PPV's, every GM will get +5 points to distribute to their superstars (still up to a maximum of 10 OVR). They can only give a maximum of 2 of those points to one individual superstar (same applies to individual tag team -a maximum of either one point each or two to one superstar in the team). You can distribute the points as 5 +1's if you'd like or any combination of +2's & +1's that equal to 5 total increases (you can also do fewer than 5 increases or none at all if you're happy with the ratings).
If that superstar is ever drafted or traded elsewhere, the person acquiring them has the option of keeping that overall or reverting back to their original overall.

| Suggestion:
After a certain period of time (maybe 6 months worth of shows) we are allowed ~3 points to add to our superstars? Permanent upgrades to the superstar's overall rating. And you have the option of: +2 & +1 for 2 superstars or +1 x3 for 3 superstars (+3 for one person would simply be too much)
Thoughts? |

| I would like to suggest randomized snake draft order for each expansion draft.
I would also like to suggest we're able to trade picks for wrestlers already in the game. |

| I don't really mind who gets added. I'm fine with trading my picks or doing the drafts themselves, tbh. Are any of those people outside of WWE, though? I'd be interested in picking up more people from outside companies like AEW (for obvious reasons) and NJPW and the such. |

| They're all NXT people who aren't in the game, except Shane Thorne, who I'm told I overlooked  I thought the right way to expand would be to go themes rather than the very best people because then after a couple of drafts no one cares anymore. So I'm more asking which theme should we go with next? AEW? TNA? MLW? ROH? NJPW? NXT UK? Maybe we should vote  |

| NXT UK could maybe be included in with this one? AEW or TNA should be next two in either order since their brands are actually in the game  I also think an old WWE one - or “past wrestlers” in general would be good. Just wrestlers of the past that aren’t already in this that people might want. I’m talking people like Chris Masters, Carlito, D’Angelo Dinero, Austin Aries (idk if they’re still wrestling though tbf) Carlito is the main one I was thinking should be in this.  |

| I'm thinking if we should start with AEW though (and give it 4 rounds, and allow us to expand by 2 or 3 instead) 1) This one being after WM & our first expansion draft, this should start out with a BANG 2) I was thinking our rosters are a taaaad on the small side anyway, so why not expand by 2 or 3 first?) 3) There's probably more likely to be better options to add for NXT (that we don't already have) after a few months of them building more people up 4) Adding AEW gives our roster pool some more variation and flare What do you think? |

| OK. Let's do AEW first. By my count this will add 44 "new players" to the game. Expanding by 44 and only adding 18 total new roster spots is going to add 26 free agents which seems like overkill. I would vote to cut the list to 30, make 4 picks each, and expand by 3 each. Then we can do a 2nd AEW expansion as they add more people to the company as well.
Also, maybe we could go to 7 possible matches per TV show instead of 6, and allow people to pick and choose when to do 6, when to do 7. Maybe even allow for 5? IDK.

Deeeefinitely cut down on how many AEW wrestlers we're including into this draft. 30 sounds good with 4 picks; expand rosters by 3. After that we'll expand by 1. Once the rosters get a bit big (maybe a few more) then we'll only be able to draft & release rather than continuing to expand. I like it @ adding more variation to # of show matches based on what each person wants to do. 5-7 sounds good for TV show matches and I think PPV's shouldn't have a set amount either. I think 6-8 for regular one-show PPV's. |

Like a 20 vs. 15 for example isn't that bad odds really when it comes down to it. Still, to have those type of added odds every match no matter the opponent might be a lot... so maybe a good point The expansion draft will happen a while from now so overall ratings can change by then. We'll see later on. |
