Power to the Imagination!

[D. Boon's Ghost]

I'd like to thank Rick Arnold for his contributions in getting the scenario foundation set and shaped. Without his fickle enthusiasm for the project, I may not have been inspired enough to see it through at the pace I did.

Thanks for the testing, cretin.

-------------

And to those of you that might enjoy this scenario while playing the demo, consider putting aside the money for the retail version, if possible. Cold hard cash is the best way to ensure that Adam sees that, 'Kayfabe Sells!'


-------------

Also... keep in mind that this scenario is a composite of the end of the territorial era; 1982-1985. I've taken liberties with wrestlers, personalities, and rosters in the game world to shape what I feel to be an entertaining starting scenario.

I've included a handful of rookies-to-be; Chris Benoit, Vampiro, etc. - if you wish to play as one of those guys, you'll have to go into the editor and fudge their birthdates.

Thanks for the interest.

Wow, I'm so happy that I'm up so early this morning, just so I can be the first person to say thank you... Thank you!

I'm sure this is as awesome, and even though it has large clown-type shoes to fill, I'm sure that it will be even better on Wrespi 2 then it was on the original.

Thank you very much for you hard work! Thank you both Eric and Rick!



-edit- I was so excited, I spelt Eric wrong.... Wow, that was harsh.

[foolinc]

Thanks, to both of you for all your hard work! I can't wait for the Legends database. If it's anything like this one it's going to be amazing.

[panix04]

i was gonna start a cornellverse diary game tonight 'cos the missus is going out, but instead im gonna have to play this instead! You are the man D.Boon! Mick Foley is gonna rise through the ranks and become the man!

[That Crazy Guy]

It's confirmed. All-Nighter ahoy!

Love it Boon, DOTT is WreSpi.

[tristram]

Love it - love it - love it.

Just finished working Harley Race's legs over in the Mid Atlantic with Naitch. By the third match of the fued he was struggling... WOO! Cannon fodder for the figure four. Learn to live with it, learn to love it, diamonds are forever, and so is Ric Flair!

Well done guys, awesome stuff.

[pat666]

Even if I don't like Old wrestling mods.... well thank you to took the time of doing a mod... I'm going to play it since it's the first real mod... thank you

[bplotkin]

Just to be sure--in the files section there the DOTT.exe is under Wrestling Spirit. Where is the one for Wrespi 2?

Considering WreSpi 2 doesn't have a logo as such, I went with last years.

That is the file you need.

[jonlawson]

DBoon is the man!! Thanks once again for making my playing time fun!

[Jeff Cartwright]

Good work. I'm playing a career as Bret Hart, working my way up the ranks on the Canadian independent scene. The Cornellverse was fun but this takes it to another level.

[Lux`]

Huge ups to you guys, awesome data. Thanks, gotta go play some more now ->

[jbergey_2005]

Great Work fellas once again! Thanks so much!

[Slim Jim]

Love this. My rookie is at C- in Mid South and E in South East, F everywhere else. Currently working for MSW and WCCW. Five-Time champion in MSW [the lowest title - I've forgotten the name] already Held a couple of other titles as well, and I'm doing well thus far! Went through a heavy losing streak at the start though, but that was expected.

LOVE THIS!
