Alex “The Pug” Pourteau, someone I never heard of and listening to his story it matches pretty much exactly the kind of character I imagine in the Jobber Gimmick.

I played solo yesterday, and loved all of the rad production and wrestling jokez – I think the game itself is pretty straightforward for wrestling fans (especially when you play both sides, as I did), but totally worth exploring for the characters alone.

Also, Femmezuigiri (as a blog) is fighting the good fight in terms of covering women in wrestling and pushing back against toxic masculinity in wrestling, things I am totally on board with. Worth putting in your rotation.

Bonjour Francophones and francophiles! There’s a (nice, as far as I can tell, my french is super rusty) review of WWWRPG in the most recent Maraudeur e-zine, #17. Maybe Steve Jakoubovitch can find some other wrestling fans?!

Sorry if this has been asked, but this just came up in a game and we’re a bit stumped.

Is there a way to gain Heat with someone besides cutting promos or initial Heat questions? I’m asking because my character is in an impromptu tag match, and my partner and I have +0 Heat with each other since it’s the first in-game interaction. It seems odd that there’s no way to gain Heat with your tag partner during a match as you start working together.

There is no way in hell that I’m going to watch every G1 Climax match, but I made myself a match tracking sheet so I…

There is no way in hell that I’m going to watch every G1 Climax match, but I made myself a match tracking sheet so I can make sure to catch the guys I want to see. Maybe if others are watching some of the finals it’ll be helpful for you?

I printed it out, am highlighting the matches I want to see, and then I check the ones I actually do watch. 

Yay G1!

Hi all.

Hi all.

Hi all. I’m trying to grok WWWRPG and things aren’t going so well. I consider myself decently experienced with PbtA games, and I’m not really having trouble with the rules. What I lack is experience with and exposure to professional wrestling. I have no “reality” to see what these moves are modeling, and so am unsure how everything fits together.

So help a complete wrestling newbie out. Are there some YouTube links to “classic” matches, so I can see how everything hangs together? Thanks. 🙂

So. I’ll say it, I ended up being disappointed by Battleground last night.

There were some great matches, like the Tag Match, and the Women’s match.  And then there were matches I just couldn’t get into like Reigns and Wyatt.  (which had a great ending); as well as Orton/Seamus.

Then there were matches I was super into, and was let down by weak finishes(Owens/Cena; Lesnar Rollins)

So what are most people’s thoughts. Aside from you Nathan Paoletta we all know what an “apologist” you are 😛
