if you on the 360, you should upload those movesets for people. (like me lol)

I didn't know I could do that. Do I have to do each moveset individually? If so, how does that work? I'm 360 by the way. I'll be doing Triple H, Sheamus, Dolph Ziggler, John Morrison, Ted DiBiase, Cody Rhodes, Edge, Christian, and Drew McIntyre next as I get the time. I'm doing all the guys most likely to be used by my brother in law and myself in our league, then I'll do my other favorites (like Punk and Y2J)

to be honest, i havent uploaded anything so im not 110% sure. but, i would think that you would go to create moveset, superstars, then click the wrestler to edit. there has to be an option to save the moveset or upload it.

if i load it up sometime here soon, i will check and see for ya.

do you not use the community sharing stuff they have? you can get movesets for guys in the game, not in the game etc. its great!!

I didn't even think about that! I've been enjoying this though. Some guys are more fun to do than others. Shelton provides the most freedom (so far) because he is a technical wizard, can fly, and is a heel, so the amount of moves at his disposal are limitless. Whereas a guy like the Big Show is fun too, but limited, as he mostly has slow (but powerful) slams. Miz is a dirty wrestler (rakes, gouges, low blows, etc.) with some basic moves and a variety of bulldogs. Randy has a few strong moves (back and neck breaker variations), a lot basic moves, and some slight heel tendencies in his moveset, but he basically is all about the finisher (which is why he should have the Kip Up ability). I want these guys to feel different when playing.

Problem is, I don't watch a lot of actual wrestling (DVR), especially when it comes to the lower card guys, but usually a quick highlight reel viewing keys me in enough that these guys wrestle like their real life counterparts.

One move I liked was giving Swagger the Ankle Lock as a sig and finisher. The sig move is a standing move. He shoots the legs, takes him down from behind, lifts and wrenches the ankle. It's a wear down move, not a submission. You can then either pick him up while he's clutching his ankle and drop him with a gutwrench or, you can grab the ankle again and apply the second ankle lock (this one IS a struggle submission) which is a grapevine, and make him tap.

Shelton Benjamin turned face about 6 months before being fired from the WWE.

You are absolutely correct. He's a face by default in the game as well (I don't know how I forgot that). Luckily I focused on his technical wrestling ability and his flying moves when editing him. I liked heel Shelton so much more.

Nice,

I think in the future THQ should make all sigs setup moves for the finisher

For example...

The Miz...Has two Skull crushing finale's

Mizard of Oz is a sig but that move is in no way setting up his main finisher...His second sig is perfect but the Mizard of oz should either be finisher #2, out of his move set or somewhere in his regular move set...

But I could be wrong because I dont watch much wrestling like I use too...Just seems logical...

Hmm.. good point. A signature move can be one of three things. It can be a move that for the most part only that wrestler uses (i.e. Orton's hangman DDT, or Taker's Old School). It can also be a move used to set up a finisher (i.e. Morrison's flying chuck); or more often than not, it's both (5 Knuckle Shuffle). I guess it depends on your definition.
