Wrestling industry change

[TheStroke7]

When you create a promotion in the editor, I found out that, in the analisis of what you have setted, there is a line that says the reaction of your promotion to wrestling industry change.

I think that the possibilities are:
- not to be rocked by wrestling industry change
- nothing
- sensible to wrestlling industry change
- very sensible to wrestling industry change
- extremly sensible to wrestling industry change

But what does it really mean?
It means that you are gonna fail sooner or later if you are sensible to those changes?
A change means that the wrestling business grade goes up or down, or there are other tipes of change?
And is there a way to understand what tipe of change a promotion need to be rocked once you know if it is sensiblle or not at wrestling industry changes?

If somebody could help me understanding that I thank him in advance.

From the Help file that comes with the game.

Section 6: Game World

The game world section is essentially broken into two parts.

At the top of the screen is your access to information on the world itself. Hovering over a flag displays information relating to that area, clicking a flag opens a pop-up with further information. The Economy and Wrestling Industry grades are particularly important. The Economy directly impacts the amount of fans who will turn up to shows and buy merchandise; when it gets really low, you should be ready to tighten up your promotion and not leak unnecessary money. The Wrestling Industry effects numerous things, including attendance levels and how interested TV networks are in having wrestling on the air. These levels generally follow a cycle of going up and down in a linear fashion, but (unless the database has been set up to) will not always go all the way to a full peak or valley before changing. Important changes in levels are reported on the web site page.

TV & PPV -deals

When the industry is particularly low, networks are much less likely to want to deal with wrestling companies.

If the product is high on performance, like PGHW, GCG, ROF in Cornellverse, when the Wrestling Industry is high they are doing better than they would do normally because people want to see wrestling. In popularity based promotions: SWF, 21CW, USPW, the rising and fall of Wrestling Industry doesn't matter that much because they aren't concentrated on wrestling.

Performance based promotion:
When W. Industry is high: the promotion gets better TV/PPV deals, attendance numbers are higher (and maybe grades are also higher?)
When W. Industry is low: The promotion is on a downward spiral, attendance numbers drop, etc.

Popularity based:
Usually they are on the "Not to be rocked" scale; Industy changes don't mean a thing. Altough they may just very, very slightly affect the things mentioned earlier, but very slighly.

So this is the only way wrestling industry changes counts in the game? Attendence change and probability of having a network intersted in your Tv show?

At the end it is not so bad being very sensitive to wrestling industry changes.

You're underestimating it. I'm not sure but the industry levels could effect the segment/match grades also. Imagine the worst case scenario: If you are a National sized performance based promotion and somehow managed to drop to Cult and the industry is falling down, it is really, really hard to get up from there. Not only will the TV and PPV deals be much harder to negotiate or even have, the attendance numbers drop, you're finance situation plummets and with your huge written deals you're soon in a bad situation, losing money by the hundreds of thousands, even millions in the long run.
