I am playing on Journey of Wrestling, a text simulator on the internet. I am doing The Dawn of Ruthless Aggression scenario. It starts in September of 2002. I have created a custom company and I'm going to attempt to rebuild the NWA before the Ruthless Aggression Era gets into full swing. I started with a draft so I don't have the deepest roster nor the most compatible. So it should be fun to see how it starts and where it goes.
