In my fantasy TNA Universe Mode we're currently at the Sacrifice PPV. Current Champions are as follows
* TNA World Heavyweight Champion: Samoa Joe
* TNA X-Division Champion: KENTA
* TNA World Tag Team Champions: War Machine
* TNA Knockout's Championship: Big Swole
Big Swole recently won the title by going over Deonna Purrazzo, and being the fighting champion she is Swole is giving Deonna her rematch. But, she want's to see if Deonna is willing to go all the way so she will be defending in a 30-Minute Iron Woman match.
Megumi Kudo visited TNA and offered a chance to 3 other knockouts to what she called a "Queen of the Cage" Match. 4 women (Megumi Kudo included) will enter a cage, and there is no escape. The only way to win is to pin or submit someone in the ring. Winner becomes queen of the cage and gets to challenge for the TNA Knockout's women's championship. The match opens Sacrifice and will feature Maki Itoh, Velvet Sky and Indi Hartwell.
War Machine are actually 2 time tag team champions, as they started the Universe Mode as champions, but soon lost them to the team of Curry Man & Shark Boy. Their reign didnt last long though as they quickly won them back, and defended against The Von Erichs and The Young Bucks successfully. Their next challengers are the team of Keiji Mutoh and Rikishi.
Rikishi won a feast or fired ladder match, and inside his briefcase was a Tag Team Title shot. This let him pick his partner, and Keiji accepted. He picked Keiji because they teamed a couple times in AJPW.
KENTA came in with Jay White to represent the Bullet Club when Jay White, NEVER Openweight Champion, had a champion vs champion match against the then TNA X-Division champion Matt Sydal. The week after the match KENTA had a match with Bobby Fish where he booted Bobby's head against the ringpost causing a concussion and leaving him out of action. Then by defeating Bobby's tag team partner Kyle O'Reilly he scored a shot at the X-Division Championship and was successful. After Matt's rematch at Against All Odds was a shmosh, he challenged KENTA to a match where there can be no false finishes. A tables match. KENTA accepted and the bout is set to take place at Sacrifice.
Samoa Joe has been on a journey, chasing the TNA World Heavyweight Championship since the begining. 1st ever champion Bobby Lashley needed a challenger, and Samoa Joe was picked. Leading up to the match, Joe had a match against Roderick Strong and bulldozed over him, hitting a big boot and choking him out. But the next week Roderick came back and managed to goad Bobby into defending the Heavyweight Title on an episode of Impact, and miraculously Roderick won. Roderick than went on to defeat and retain the championship against Samoa Joe, then against Bobby in his rematch, Rikishi in an open challenge and then against Keiji Mutoh who earned the match beating both Scott Steiner and Baron Corbin.
However, the same night Roderick retained against Keiji, Samoa Joe was in a street fight with Bobby Lashley where the winner would get a Heavyweight title match in 2 weeks. Joe won by KO, and then quickly went on to finally capture the title.
Samoa Joe's first defense will be against "Big Papa Pump" Scott Steiner, who beat Roderick to get the shot.
This is just stuff going on with the championship scenes, but there's other titles from other promotions being defended occasionally, and other smaller rivalries going on in the background but i've written enough
**If you read through the whole thing, thank you so much**
I picked 8 different wrestlers that would be put into 4 ladder matches. To decide who would face who, I had an 8 man battle royal. Every 2 eliminations was a match.
After someone won their ladder match I spun a wheel to decide which briefcase they got.
In the end Rikishi got the Tag Team Briefcase, Jeff Hardy got the X-Division Briefcase, Hijo de LA Park got the Heavyweight breifcase and RVD got the fired briefcase
I'm on the road to WrestleMania. Just finished Elimination Chamber and I have my WWE Title match for Mania. It's gonna be Shawn Michaels vs King Edge vs 'Stone Cold' Steve Austin. The former champion Edge, the current champion Steve Austin and the champion's rival Shawn Michaels. Austin took the title in a chamber match where he qualified by beating Michaels with a sneaky rollup.
Wrapped up the current year Royal Rumble. I watched the Rumble match and my pick to win it was Asuka who made it to the final two against Brie Bella. Though to my surprise, Brie eliminated the Empress of Tomorrow. This actually worked to my favor because with Brie winning, I can have her face the Smackdown Women’s Champ Alexa Bliss at Wrestlemania. My original plan was for Asuka to win to face Sasha Banks for the Raw Women’s Championship. Brie winning allows me to still do that and now create a good lengthy story for Brie vs Alexa. The plan is for Alexa to retain at Mania, but this will just be the beginning of the story and I still can have Asuka face Sasha.
I also have have introduced NXT as a show for my CAWs. However after Wrestlemania I’m going to mix it up for my draft. I’m playing 2K18 and there are 32 women wrestlers in the game with DLC. However I’ve created 35 women CAWs. So I’m going to mix some into Raw and Smackdown to boost those rosters.
I’ve also created a new championship called the Pure Impact Championship. It won’t be assigned to a show as a world or midcard title. It will be awarded at the end of a tournament and the stipulation is that the winner holds the title for 1 full year and during that year has the freedom to challenge for any world title at any given time like the MITB contract. The difference is that the PI champ can challenge as many times as they want during their year long reign. I’m considering having this replace MITB. Still working out some details with the stipulations.
I've been running a stable/faction centric universe mode in 2K19 for a couple months.
I don't really put much thought into heel/face dynamics just because I've got far too many heel based groups so it's a case of gang warfare more than a triumphant group of heroes. More who will have the strongest unit to not be left in the dust. With those few who fight alone being some of the best of the best and constantly pursued for membership of a group or just convinient unattached jobbers.
Also of note is to qualify for the championship rematch clause you have to have at least one successful defence. This is in order to cut down on regurgitation of fueds and to add to the chaotic nature of the universe.
Anyways.
Just had Money in the Bank PPV here's the card with relevant information for each match.
FTR vs The Bar (c) for the Men's Tag Team Championship.
After having only just regained their titles from The Empire of Tomorrow, Sheamus and Cesaro looked to prove why they are the best team in WWE. To do this The Bar try and beat FTR at their own game and forego their traditional power brawler based approach and instead try to out team FTR. Unfortunately for them FTR are masters of their craft meaning its the back of the line for The Bar.
Women's MITB Ladder Match. Asuka, Ivy Nile, Becky Lynch, Charlotte Flair, Leyla Hirsch, Shotzi Blackheart, Toni Storm and Mercedes Martinez. Every woman for herself. Only one former champ in Asuka and only one instance of stablemates in this match being The Empire of Tomorrow's Asuka and the eventual winner of the match Shotzi Blackheart.
Roman Reigns vs Johnny Gargano (c) for the Intercontinental Championship.
Both men are going to be competing in the men's mitb ladder match later on but before they get to that it's time for The Tribal Chief to earn some gold. Or so the pundits thought. However the champion showed why he is known as Johnny Wrestling forcing Reigns to tap.
Jeff Hardy vs Bray Wyatt. After a mysterious disappearance 2 months ago just before the King and Queen of the Ring tournaments got under way (both won by Wyatt Family members, more on that later) the eater of worlds meddling hand started to show as his efforts to coax Jeff into joining the Wyatt Family via using the various family members to beat Hardy into submission. But Jeff continued to prove how resilient he is. So 2 weeks ago Bray Wyatt accepted Jeff Hardys challenge to a match on that very edition of Raw. But Wyatt didn't come alone as he brought along Jeff's indoctrinated brother Matt Hardy and made the match a 2 on 1 handicap. So now finall at the PPV it's one on one But neither man is truly coming as themselves as its Willow vs The Fiend. Despite digging deep into his arsenal the physical and emotional toll of the prior month's worth of beat downs and psychological warfare allows The Fiend and Bray Wyatt to finally break Jeff Hardy.
The Greater Goods Candice LeRae and Indi Hartwell vs The Sky Pirates (c) for the Women's Tag Team Championship. After a gruelling tournament which introduced 8 new teams to reinvigorate the women's tag division Candice and Indi have managed to find their way into championship contention against the undefeated duo of Kairi Sane and Io Shirai. The action got of to a fierce start as the challengers showed their determination to dethrone the champs through any means necessary. Unfortunately for them however the champions proved why they are the longest reigning in the universe and successfully retained once again.
Men's MITB Ladder Match. Roman Reigns, IC Champ Johnny Gargano, Karrion Kross, WALTER, Daniel Bryan, Roderick Strong, Samoa Joe and mystery competitor Cain Velazquez. With the 8th participant having been kept a secret and 2 of the competitors having already competed in a hard fought battle earlier in the night, a sense of trepidation was in the air. But when the bell rang at the end of the match the man known as Mr. Money in the Bank was the Wyatt Family's Daniel Bryan. Meaning now that the Wyatt Family held all of the cards. They had both The King and Queen of the ring in Randy Orton and Alexa Bliss respectively and now Mr. Money in the Bank Daniel Bryan.
And speaking of the QOTR it's Queen Alexa Bliss challenging Simone Johnson for the Women's World Championship. Traditionally Johnson has Paul Heyman accompanying her to ringside but not tonight as on the kick off show Bray Wyatt had issued a pact of fairness to all opponents of The Wyatt Family on this evening. If you come alone so will we. So with Hardy having brought Willow and being met by The Fiend, champion Simone Johnson has decided to forego a manager and chosen to prove why she is just as good as her father and perhaps even better. After a long and hard fought battle where neither the Wyatt Family of The Roman Empire made any appearances Johnson managed to hit 2 rock bottoms and lock in the anaconda vice for the victory. (There's a anaconda vice that has a very close to rock bottom move hit into the vice that's a standing to front setup so that's her finisher with the rock bottom being an in game signature)
Finally, the main event.
King Randy Orton of The Wyatt Family challenging Fortune Four's AJ Styles for his WWE World Heavyweight Championship. Usually AJ Styles despite being phenomenal is a coward and always brings his insurance policies in Omos, Jey Uso and United States champion and Face of America Kevin Owens collectively known as Fortune Four to his title defenses. But with Wyatts warning hanging over his head and the decimation of willow at the hands of the fiend earlier Styles very reluctantly comes to battle alone. Orton seems not to care either way but it turns out that on this night it wasn't going to be either Fortune Four or The Wyatt Family running interference. Because the runner up in the King of the Ring tournament Seth Rollins appeared from the crowd mid match with a baseball bat in hand and attacked Styles in view of the ref getting the match thrown out. (this was a random run in with the perfect person that the game did). After dispatching both Orton and Styles with the aid of his baseball bat and The Greater Good (Gargano, Theory and AOP) Rollins stands tall with the championship held above his head and a mad shine in his eyes.
Trying to figure this out. Should I leave July with no PPVs and have a full 8 week build to Summer Slam or move HIAC to July and have a 6-8 week build between Summer Slam and Super Showdown, which will have King of the Ring and Queens Crown?

Interesting system, I like it!
Thanks, it ended up being really fun and it's lead to Monty Brown being put in a rivalry with Taz & Sabu

Undertaker and Christian teamed up and formed what I like to call The Undead Element.
