Intro
I'm going to be trying something new, so I made the title of this a little vague as I don't 100% know what direction this will go in the future. I'm new to these parts of the forums, however I'm very active on the NBA side of things. If you want to see a example, I'll share a link below. I've still got a week or so of prep work to do before I get started mostly unlocking current legends.

Posting Style
I like to keep the things I post simple with pics. I'll do some articles which i try to keep within a paragraph or two so it's not too much reading is needed. Plus, I don't have the best grammar/typing skills in the world. I'm not sure how the pics will work in 2k so may not do any in game photos. Posting the results from matchups each week should be a very easy and straight forward approach.
GM Mode
The first mode I'm going to try out and hopefully it will be the one I do all of them on is gm mode. I've not tested it out yet so I'll be doing that over the weekend. It should make for a natural series as competition against the other brand will give it a goal instead of just who wins matches. I plan on doing the full year however may start with a small 15 week one to start just to test things out.
Era
I will be using players from WWF/WWE that competed in like 1985 to 1987. So this is roughly WrestleMania 1 to 3. I'm hoping I can use other created wrestlers from WCW for the other brand. I have heard to many CAW will cause bugs so I'll have to test that out. From what I know you can't control who the other side picks so some of the guys I want could end up on the other team. I also need to find out how many wrestlers you need I have a feeling I'll want to get to many in
Control
I will sim all of the Raws and probably play the PPV's
