So James Storm screwed me. He was set to win the tournament and take the title off RVD in a ladder match at the next show. He took a New Japan booking and left me having to replace him. I think my eventual replacement will be good.

OVW is splurging. I'm not sure if its cost cutting due to the McMahon family turmoil or what, but WWE let Bayley, Alicia Fox, Akira Tozawa, and Nia Jax all walk. I made a move for Fox (Known as Foxxy), the first of the releases, then decided to spend on Bayley (Known as Bailey) and Tozawa. Nia got an offer from Impact that I couldn't compete with. The roster is getting a little bloated, so cuts will likely come soon.

Wrestle-1 has caused all sorts of hell with other Japanese companies. They declared their intent to wage war against NJPW, MPW, ZERO1, and AJPW.
ROH rose to Cult size. To give you an idea of that size, ECW was considered Cult size by game's standards.
Progress fell to Small size. My company is currently Small size to give an idea.
AAA have fallen from Cult to Regional.
Alesiter Black, Riddick Moss, Kassius Ohno, and Wesley Blake were all called up to the WWE main roster.
AAA fired Teddy Hart after he showed up to a show drunk. Not all that surprising.
Ivan Putski passed away at the age of 78.

Bill Graham passed away at the age of 75.
NXT:UK roster member Charlie Morgan broke her cranium in a match and is out over a year. At 28 she still has hope to wrestle again.
ICW secured a deal to broadcast their events throughout all of Europe, helping them gain a larger audience.
Billy Gunn opened his own wrestling school, The Gunn Dojo.
Bill Goldberg and Dump Matsumoto were inducted into the game's Hall of Immortals.
So RVD forced my hand last show, using his creative control to block him from dropping the title. Let's see where we go from here.
My creative team recommended Ruby Raze to me before the show. She came cheap so I signed her as an enhancement talent.

I am now into July in game, meaning half the year is gone and I still haven't gone bankrupt!
I have noticed a handful of things and will be making a couple of changes to the LP. The most notable change will be on the major show results. Title changes are few and far between, so they will only be announced when they happen. I've noticed that WWE also loves to book repetitive matches, like even more repetitive than real life. Since Wrestlemania, March in game, WWE has booked The Bella Twins vs The IIConics at every PPV plus six times on Raw and twice on Smackdown. Most of the time there are no real stories to their matches, so its becoming unfulfilling for me to include them. There is no need for me to mention that Daniel Bryan defended against Luke Gallows for the third time either. This coupled with ROH and NJPW rarely holding actual title matches on their PPVs has lead me to trim the excess. If a title changes hands, I will mention it, but if not you will just have to find who the champ in a major fed is by scrolling back a few posts.
All other news will still be included.

WWE allowed Peyton Royce to negotiate with other companies. She signed PPA deals with me and Shimmer. Her ring name has yet to be decided.

July
OVW News
I signed a deal to allow ESPN to broadcast my events On Demand. It means more sponsorship money and a larger audience. Powerbomb.TV will still broadcast the events live in the US, but ESPN will have them available on demand in all of the US and Canada. I also signed a deal with a local station to air my events in a late night slot the day after they are broadcast live on Powerbomb.TV. I get no sponsorship money from this deal, but the requirements are super lax and its good for exposure and growth in my home region.
The extra sponsor money gave me some room to make a new signing. After searching for a new Authority Figure to take the place of a very sub par Christy Hemme, I was able to hire DDP. Hemme will stick around for now, likely in a manager role.
I also signed Stevie Richards to a manager role.
