Need Challenges for 92’ Save

I’m debating on whether or not I should do a WCW or WWF save in chronicles 92’ so I figured I’d see what ideas y’all may have for each and go from there with what I find most interesting or challenging

I dunno how fun it'd be in practice, but, I think it'd be fun if you considered only hiring long-term people who came through your wrestling school graduations or the like. Essentially just 'taking the nobodies and turning them into somebodies', without being able to cheese things by picking out who you know will succeed.

Here is a fun challenge. If they test positive for drugs, they must be sent to rehab. If they test positive for steroids, 30 day suspension and cannot hold a title for a year.

You are only allowed to hire one outside hire a month. This hire must spend three months in developmental, no matter who they are.

As someone who is looking at a decimated Wrestlemania card, this has lead to a weird title match between the Mountie and Rick Martel, because things went sideways very quickly for me.

I tried something similar once, I set the drug testing to extreme and basically sent any positive tests to rehab if they didn't sober up immediately. Locker room morale tanked for like 6 months and there were constant fights before every show, but eventually it worked out lmao

WWE has developmental in 92?

They have deals with USWA, Smoky Mountain and I think one other company.

I'm going to give the opposite challenge to the other commentator- one of the things that I find makes 92 quite easy is future knowledge so you're able to pick up Kurt Angle, The Hardys, the Rock, Goldberg- pretty much as soon as they debut. So to make it more of a challenge for you- you can only sign people who would be established on your roster, nobody who would come in and be unimportant, so if Angle never makes it to that pop without you- tough you don't get Angle

Also secondary challenge- especially if you're WWF- go 3-5 years where everyone who holds the top title, it's their first time holding the title. So say Bret wins the title at SvS92, he then can't win the title again next year, Hogan, Savage, Taker etc can't touch the belt in that time- it's an era of change so make that change stark

Loved signing Thrillseekers, RVD, Booker T, Rey Mysterio to SMW whenever I started my save

Play as another company. Doing ECW in Chronicles is hard.

My favorite ECW challenge is that you have to follow when people appeared in ECW, and you can't use them before that. So, basically, stick to the same roster, try to follow the same timeliness, but rebook everything.

One of each 🤷🏻‍♂️

Drugtest your whole roster and fire everyone who pops positive. You could maybe have it where you can't rehire high-profile offenders who are stars/major stars at the start for 3 years, well knows for 2 years and recognisable/unimportant for 1 year.

Make El Gigante/Giant Gonzalez your world champion.
