Are You A Mainstream Performer?: Lets be honest, there's hundreds of active efeds on the MSN circuit alone, and I'd say over 95% of them claim to be a huge mega power that competes with or has put WWE out of business. So because this is completly unrealistic, only certain efeds will be considered to have mainstream recognition, all other feds will be considered Indy. I don't care if when you were there they claimed you were on Spike TV every monday and they had a PPV every week or whatever else, as far as PWT is concearned it was Indy and at the end of night that's concrete. So in order to be conisidered a mainstream performer (by mainstream performer I mean a household name), you have to of been at least a Mid Card performer in one of the following feds: No Rocks Allowed (NRA), Bytches Ultimate Domain (BUD), or the ICWA. And the only reason the ICWA is on that list is because with it's merger into PWT it's directly connected with this fed and thus wouldn't make sense to ignore it. But ICWA is more like TNA Recognition as opposed to WWE recognition.
W2K - W2K by all rights should make the list, the only reason they don't is because they've potrayed themselves as an indy fed. Their not making the list isn't ment out of disrespect of their Legacy, simply because they're angle involves them being a small indy fed in texas. Also, I realize that at one time NRA invaded W2K and they'd somewhat merged, but to maintain their Indy deal we're going to act as if that didn't happen.Or at least if it did, It was kept off of mainstream TV.))
Now if you were a part of Shattered Dreams Entertainment (SDE), We will consider you strongly recognized in the UK, however you won't get global or US credit. And if you were a headliner of PCW, we will give you UK Credibility as well... But only if you're a headliner as they're an admitted Indy promotion.
So if you don't meet any of the above fed stips, than as far as PWT's concearned you are Joe Nobody off the Indy circuit, no different than the other thousands of guys living out of their cars and attempting to make 50 bucks a week if you're lucky. We're not saying you're not talented if you haven't gotten our version of main stream recognition, I mean Nic E Dangerously is arguably one of the best fedders on the circuit, but like wise he's viewed as Joe Nobody because he's not a household name.
PLEASE NOTE: Simply being in a mainstream fed is NOT enough to be a mainstream name. You have to of had a LEGITIMATE accomplishment in that fed. Just because The Islanders are a WWE Tag team doesn't mean that the world knows who they are. And if you just read that and asked "Are the islanders a real team or was he just making up a name for an example?" Than my point has clearly been made.
WWE, WCW, ECW, and NWA Association: OBVIOUSLY being a part of WWE, WCW, ECW, or the NWA, would give you some mainstream recognition HOWEVER, this option is not available to created performers without Instant Messenger approval by Management, and approval is very unlikly. You'd have to have a phenominal angle for us to allow your character to be a former WWE, WCW, Etc. wrestler. And when I say NWA is mainstream recognition I mean TNA or the OLLLD NWA territories like AWA, Mid Atlantic, WCCW, GCW, WWWF, so on and so forth. And of those, there's very few left that can be justified to get in a wrestling ring.
As for real characters... At one time real characters weren't allowed in PWT, however with PWT slowly progresing to the main stream it'd make sense that a couple of WWEers or TNA guys might take notice and think about jumping on board... So we will slowly be eliminating this rule... But FOR NOW, You MAY play real characters but ONLY Low card performers. As of right now to play a real character you'll have to get it approved through management. Why? Well Triple H wouldn't leave his comfy spot atop of the WWE to come perform for an up and coming fed that doesn't even have major exposure yet. It's gotta make sense. The Rock, Steve Austin, Triple H, Shawn Michaels... these are all guys who wouldn't be here right now... But if you want to come in as someone who's been unemployed from the mainstream, like Justin Credible or Danny Doring... I'd buy it, bring em in. TNA... Well in my opinion anyone in TNA should BEG to come to PWT, so I'll accept most TNA guys ya wanta play BARING AJ Styles and Jeff Jarrett... Sorry, I just don't buy them leaving TNA for PWT yet... And there's a few others too but AJ and Double J are the biggest ones.
