Amazing Game, Tiny Quirk

I have been playing this game for years and years (2021 I suppose is when I started). And currently I’m almost done with the shop aspect of it. Recently I have obtained the Cheap Pop & Cheap Heat cards, yet they don’t seem to be adding any bonus to mix spots & skits. It will show the +5 but never actually add it to the final score. A character can score 23 on a promo, get the +5 and still have a 4⭐️.

Still One Of The Best Wrestling Sims on Mobile

Been playing this since release and it’s still a genuinely fun wrestling sim. It’s simpler and more accessible than Extreme Warfare Revenge or Total Extreme Wrestling but still deep enough to create an entertaining storylines, build favourites, and get invested in your roster over time.

The character variety (and nostalgia) is great, especially if you enjoy creating narratives in your head or collecting cards and building themed promotions. It has that “just one more show” quality that keeps on coming back.

If you enjoy this, I’d also recommend looking into Checkmate Creative’s other offerings- Eras of Wrestling (especially) or Modern Mania Wrestling.

All these titles are great for wrestling fans who like management sims without needing something overly complicated.

Wish there was a reset button

I love this game. Been playing it for 2+ years and have enjoyed it everytime I open the app. The only nitpick I would say is that sometimes I want a fresh start and have the ability to just delete all my progress to go through it all again. Like maybe make new seperate saves… one for my completed store and one for me to do it all over again. Other than that, amazing job and I can’t wait for Eras of Wrestling to come out.
