I'm a huge comic book nerd and grew up a wrestling fan. My love of live wrestling pretty much died out when the current WWE crop started kicking up, but I love playing wrestling video games.
This year I decided to combine those two and have a different type of Universe going on while others like
Aparess and
GronkM14 do an amazing job with the wrestlers that come with the game.
My plan is to have one "brand" comprised of both Marvel and DC characters, both major and minor characters, but also keep the roster around 30 to get the most out of my Universe. Here is the roster I will be using (made up of all CAWs I were able to find):
There will be four non-wrestlers:
Penguin, Mad Hatter, Kingpin and Gordon. Gordon will be used as a Vince MacMahon type - the Commissioner of the Federation. Hatter, Penguin and Kingpin will be managers, though Kingpin is big enough that he may have to fight his way out of some situations and be okay with it.
Currently, every character has a move set done and about half has entrances done (not including teams). My hope is that Friday I will be able to finish all of the entrances and then play my first week using both story mode and Universe - cut and process the video and post it to Youtube.
Champions:
Heavyweight Champion: Vacant
Intercontinental Champion: Vacant
Tag Team Champion: Symbiotic Terrors (Carnage and Venom)
Note: The Heavyweight Title will be decided KOTR style on Throwdown and the IC Title on Thunder
Shows:
Monday Night Throwdown (Major show/Custom marvel arena)
Thursday Thunder (Minor show/Custom DC arena)
PPVs will remain WWE themed
I'll definitely update this as I go along and because it is video and audio, it may take a little longer than a weekly update. Right now I'm going to shoot for a bi-weekly release but make it both Throwdown and Thunder. I am also going to be doing the commentary because the game sucks at it.
I hope you guys enjoy it!
