I'd say that your ranks are well thought out and fairly accurate to what I feel like those mean. Only things I'd quibble on are that I use S-tier fairly rarely(I think), and Milkshake is a clear cut A-tier edit if there ever was one.

I'd say that your ranks are well thought out and fairly accurate to what I feel like those mean. Only things I'd quibble on are that I use S-tier fairly rarely(I think), and Milkshake is a clear cut A-tier edit if there ever was one. Milkshake is very recently an A-tier dude, and will probably go up there shortly. He's banging on the door of the main-event for NEO PURO, especially after the tweaks and the kinds of matches he's put on in random sims. And S-tiers I keep in mind within my own universe, compared to, say, the "Legend of the Business" approach Fire Pro intended. I see it for me, more so as "legends as well as current megastars." So if we were doing this in a WWE context I'd put say Ric Flair, Undertaker, Cena, HBK, THE NEW Daniel Bryan, probably Rollins, AJ Styles at S-tier. Meanwhile I'd have someone like Miz, Orton (just because he's languished about doing fuck all for so long), Balor, Kevin Owens at A-rank. Not necessarily A for charisma, but just rank. Or to go with NJPW pre mass exodus I'd have Tana, Okada, Kenny at S-rank. Liger at S-rank too. Then someone like Naito at A. There's just something for me that should denote "current main eventer with a little bit more to them" for S-tier. That's why Nikki, Craddock, and Mayday are the S-tiers when it comes to actual rank. Craddock co-founded the company and saw it through for the better part of over two years, whilst Nikki did a large part of the heavy lifting alongside him. And after some logic and param tweaks over the last few months she's turned into the worldbeater I always intended her to be. Mayday has become arguably the new "face" of SHTCW:a/A and as such, for me, is kind of in that "there's something just a little bit more special about this main eventer" category. I suppose for me I just view S-tier, in my universe, as a combination of legends and the current ace(s) of a promotion. I also realize I'm a bit more liberal with S-tier ranks than others. I appreciate the critique, though, and can see the justification behind it. :) |

I'd say that the reason to hold back on S-tier is that currently in WWE, Lesnar would be the one guy who would earn it, with the only arguable people next to him being Roman and maybe Cena or Taker, but those two have slipped over the last few years. It's always good to have that rare next level for the gamechangers, the guys who are guaranteed draws, game changers, the types who are clearly above the organization/business.
But of course, we all have our own way of seeing it, and I fully respect that, especially since your rationale is fully thought out and logical in its own right.

You had me at milkshake. I want this guy for my ps4 fire promoter. Is he up on ps4? Great stuff. Thanks, my dude. Unfortunately, no, he isn't on the PS4. My apologies. If I get the time I may convert him over to the PS4, but I fucking despise using the PS4's interface trying to create someone, and with the Juniors DLC out next week, and just... life, it may be a tall order. Again, apologies. In lieu of next week's stream I have finished up the logic and movesets of all of my mentors/legends, as well as my students. I won't be uploading them, though, as I still wanna test a bit, and with the Juniors DLC out so soon I figured I'd wait for a few days/a week or so to kinda give everyone little tweaks/overhauls. I do have some appearance updates, though: Léon de Oro in all his golden glory:  Flash the Mighty gets an overhaul to make her mask much less busy and make her identifiably female. Tweaks to her tights, too.  Yumi Yamada, whose attire has quickly become one of my favourites I've done in a while.  And Craddock gets four new attires:  Wolverine Blue, Wolverine Brown, Captain Marvel, and Batman '66. Might lighten up the cape a bit on Batman. We'll see. |

Really loving Flash's update. Awesome work all around! Thanks! Means a lot coming from royalty. Though I always liked Flash she was kind of a mess and not exactly discernible as a female lucha, so. Also finished the Student Showcase ring for Thursday's stream. Gonna do a test stream tomorrow probably just for the sake of some Twitch overlay stuff. Also finished up a new edit, Siberian Tiger III. Not gonna release him (or anyone for that matter) until the Jrs. DLC is out but I wanted to make a new tiger, so fuck it. He uses the Meteora as his finisher and the Codebreaker/Backstabber as sigs and is just generally a flippy-doo lucha who loves to taunt. A lot.     |

Oh, hey, hello there. Apologies I haven't posted in a while. Life's been kinda crazy, as it's been for the past like... six months, it feels like. My PC also got fried and I got a new one, as well as an XBox Games Pass trial, so I've been very excited about that and playing a bunch of games whilst I've had the trial. I also got hella into Sekiro, which has been rad. So that's meant a little bit less Fire Pro time. I also haven't found the time to reinstall the Adobe Suite just due to life stuff so that's meant I haven't been able to do ring/arena stuff either. Just been very busy with personal stuff and playing other games, but I have had a few updates lying around I haven't shared. Buttttt I've got some updates. Siberian Tiger has been reworked a little bit. He's got the Samoan Pop into the Running Swanton as a sequence, with a 100% chance to go up top for the top rope Swanton as a finisher, and if he's out of range he'll just go for a fancy pin. He's also been uploaded to the Workshop. Orchid has also been reworked pretty extensively. Her logic was a bit wonky and the release of the Jr. DLC meant I got motivated to change up her look, as well. She also had a few too many similarities to Alouette when it came to moveset stuff so both of them got some tweaks.  El Hijo del 8-Bit also gets a proper rudo attire set/alternate character, with the original Famicom, 8-Bit Bowser, Shadow Link, and Quick Man from Mega Man 2 getting their respective props.  Patches gets a slight appearance overhaul on his first two attires (knees/pants parts, basically) and some logic tweaks.  No Name gets a very slight update to appearance and logic (mainly fixing the dark blacks, adding a few bits on the calves).  Machismo gets a slight attire tweak just to make him a bit less boring. Daisha Lee gets an appearance and logic overhaul. She aims for legwork, goes for the Daniel Bryan-style knee (albeit from the Manhattan Drop rather than the corner Buaiku, and the Go 2 Sleep.  We also have a new Red Dragon, Red Dragon III. She(?) doesn't have a proper moveset yet but will be getting one. You can also see some tweaks to Slater Steele as well, since Dragon only has one attire at the moment. Beef McHugeBulk got a logic and slight moveset tweak, as well. Fyfe Donnelly got a very slight attire tweak and moveset tweak/points bump. Kemper Tierney also got a slight attire tweak but nothing to really bother showcasing. I also might go through a handful of edits whom aren't intended to be moving forward whenever I get SHTCWA off the ground again but could use a bit of an overhaul in terms of appearance and logic. |

A lot of good looks here excited to see them in the ring. No wonder you had some of the first original wrestlers that caught my attention. El Hijo del 8-bit's new looks are incredible.

Decided to create a new brother/sister tag team. We'll see if they also turn on each other. Introducing Kieran and Kilby Blackburn. They have identical attires for now. That may change. Regardless, they'll keep matching colours. Their attires were inspired by Mustafa Ali, and, weirdly enough, some dude's rain coat I saw the other day. I'll be working on their movesets in the coming days and I'll get them uploaded soonish. Man, would I LOVE to have female faces on the level of the NJPW faces.  Also, man do I wish we could have animated floors.  |

Oh yes hello there. Big logic/moveset updates on Will Craddock (slight tweaks to appearance, too: Avengers: Endgame attire, matching tattoos with Nikki), Nikki Knux (and her 49th Parallel version), Marcel Müller, Milkshake Jones, and a handful of others. Kieran and Kilby Blackburn are now up. Getting tweaked still, but looking good from preliminary stuff. Red Dragon III is also up. Arenas continue to be worked on, but those have slowed down a bit. Felt like I've kinda hit a wall on those. Doing loading screens for Takuan, happy to do more for others. :)  Also oh hey look it's rookie Craddock, updated Craddock, a new attire for Nikki, and Orange Pekoe, who likes to chop people a lot. Not quite "41% in Large damage" a lot, but still a lot..  |

Ripley Crazy stuff all around!!! Love the Respect is Earned and The Veil edits especially. Insane creativity. 'Eyyy. Thanks, my dude. Really appreciate that. :) Here's a new edit:  His name is Valentine Williams. The SOAT: The Sexiest of All Time. At first he was gonna be some young hotshot shithead but for some reason I was just like "Oh wait what if he was some old-ass '80s motherfucker who basically lived at Gold's Gym but now is a littttttle bit out of shape? And doesn't have any hair." Basically my inspirations were Superstar Billy Graham, Hogan, andddd... Besos lol. His whole "shtick" was a play on gay panic at the time of his hayday—he has the Lip Lock. And he was so damned sexy he could convert anyone. So he's Male(?), and I'll, like Besos, probably create a Female(?) version for him to smooch ladies too. He also has a big ol' fuck off running lariat as his main finisher, and a rare-ish Macho Man elbow drop. He loves, loves, loves some punching. I'm still tooling around with his params but he's getting about 15 minute matches on average and I'm enjoying him quite a bit. Alsooooooooo got a new logo made:  This is gonna be the logo for the revitalized Lucha Crown. Taking inspiration (and permission) from Dan's Luxurious Purple Jacket community matches, soon I'll be doing a very similar thing with masked edits exclusively. I also want to run the matches in different cities and thus make appropriate arenas/rings based off those cities, and often their sports teams. So that logo will get recoloured constantly. Say, a Miami Nights version of that logo. :) Andddddddd finally, beyond some spoiler tags, some loading screens I recently made for Takuan that I'm really happy with. Again, I'm more than happy to do any rings, loading screens for people. Happy to do logos and such, too. :) |

Really nice work here. Great stuff. Some suggestion/correction... "The Stuttgart Submission Machine" Marcel Müller Finisher/Signatures: WünderArmbar (Grounded Cross Arm Breaker), DAS BOOT (Two-Step Kick), UBER DAS BOOT (Diving Front High Kick), WünderArmbar II (Stepover Arm Breaker) I´m a native german speaker (living in Berlin), so... "WünderArmbar"... Do you mean "Wonder Armbar"? If so, it´s a "Wunder Armbar". No "ü" in there. "Das Boot"... do you mean the movie "Das Boot" - "The ship" or do you mean "the boot" in german? If you wanna translate "the boot" in german, it would be "der Stiefel" (but nobody would translate big boot/boot into german). "Uber das Boot"... First of all, it would be "Über das Boot" ("ü"). Again, hommage to the movie or translation from "Over Boot"? If translation, then it would be "Über Stiefel". Just some suggetsions. Keep up the good work! |
