Maybe I'm missing something here, but is there any way to import teams you created in Team Management into Universe mode? I really don't want to have to go through and re-create several teams and stables and entrances. They're automatically there. Are you not seeing them? Nope. Not there. These are teams I created in My WWE > Edit Teams I go into Universe mode > Customize Universe > Edit Teams and they are not there.

Finally settled how my schedule is going to look in Universe mode. Rosters are TBD. WWE WEEKLY SHOW: Raw is War - Tuesday
PPVs:
Jan - Royal Rumble Feb- St. Valentines Day Massacre Mar - WrestleMania Apr - Backlash May - Over the Edge Jun - King of the Ring Jul - Unforgiven Aug - SummerSlam Sep - In Your House Oct - No Way Out Nov - Survivor Series Dec - Vengeance
------------------------------------------ WCW WEEKLY SHOW - Monday Nitro - Monday
PPVs:
Jan - Mayhem Feb - SuperBrawl Mar - Uncensored Apr - Spring Stampede May - Slamboree Jun - Bash at the Beach Jul - Great American Bash Aug - Clash of the Champions Sep - Fall Brawl Oct - Halloween Havoc Nov - World War 3 Dec - Starrcade
------------------------------------------ NXT WEEKLY SHOW - NXT - Wednesday
PPVs:
Jan - Takeover: Rumble (Royal Rumble theme) Feb - Takeover: Chicago Mar - Takeover: Gold Rush (Night of Champions theme) Apr - Takeover: Montreal May - Takeover: Hardcore (Extreme Rules theme) Jun - Takeover: Vegas Jul - Takeover: Fatal 4-Way (Fatal 4-Way theme) Aug - Takeover: Brooklyn Sep - Takeover: Breaking Point (Breaking Point theme) Oct - Takeover: London Nov - Takeover: Survival (Survivor Series theme) Dec - Takeover: Tokyo
------------------------------------------ ROH & NJPW WEEKLY SHOWS - ROH on SBG - Thursday, NJPW on AXStv - Friday
PPVs:
Jan - Wrestle Kingdom Feb - ROH Anniversary Show Mar - All-Star Extravaganza Apr - Power Struggle May - Wrestling Dontaku Jun - Best in the World Jul - Death Before Dishonor Aug - Dominion Sep - G1 Climax Oct - King of Pro Wrestling Nov - Glory by Honor Dec - Final Battle
Obviously, the schedules are not 100% accurate to their real life counterparts, but I didn't want to go that route with it anyway. The NXT one was the trickest to figure out what to do, because they only run events quarterly and they are all Takeover: (insert subtitle here). I decided to go with a schedule of alternating PPVs at Full Sail with some theme, and on the road. I'm going to pretty much have to design logos and arenas for all of the Takeovers. I'll probably take me a week to get this setup the way I want it to with the daily download limit.

I'm currently working on mapping out my Universe mode. I plan on having 5 brands with the max 4 PPVs each month.
WWE (Weekly show on Tuesday, PPVs 4th Sunday)
WCW (Weekly show on Monday, PPVs 3rd Sunday)
NXT (Weekly show on Wednesday, PPVs 2nd Sunday)
ROH (Weekly show on Thursday, PPVs 1st Sunday with NJPW)
NJPW (Weekly show on Friday, PPVs 1st Sunday with ROH)
It's going to take forever to setup and download all of the arenas and logos I need thanks to the daily limit, but it'll be sooooo worth it when done.

My internet has been out for the past week. It was finally fixed today while I was at work.
My plan for tonight is to download the patch, and then download the max amount of community creations that I can in a single session.

I am loving the gameplay for this game. So much fun.
Over the last week, I've mostly played exhibition matches because I'm having so much fun just playing random matches. I've played some of the Austin showcase and tooled around a little with create an arena, but beyond that, it's been all exhibition stuff.
I haven't even touched Universe, MyCareer, or even CAW mode yet.
I have no problem saying that I think this is one of the best entries in the series in some time.

Yep. I have no problem telling people that I am a wrestling fan. I even make it a point sometimes to mention that I watch wrestling from all over the world, not just the WWE stuff to illustrate that it's a full blown hobby, not just some show I watch. If you do it with confidence instead of acting embarrassed, most people won't judge you on it.
And for those that do, the conversation usually goes like this:
Me: "Yeah, I watch wrestling."
Them: "You do know that's scripted and fake, right?"
Me: "What's your favorite TV show?"
Them: I watch *insert CSI/NCIS/Games of Thrones/Walking Dead/etc.*"
Me: "You do know that's scripted and fake, right?"
Usually shuts them right up.
Bottom line: If you're a fan, OWN it, don't hide it. If someone judges you negatively over it, they probably aren't someone who's opinions on how you spend your free time should matter to you anyway.

First really weird glitch like this I've had. Everyone just dropped through the ring during the intros.

Just had one hell of a 6-Man Survivor Series Elimination Match. Sami Zayn & The Vaudevillians (my team) vs. The New Day. Great back and forth match with both teams trading eliminations. First English is eliminated, then Woods is downed by a Helluva Kick, then Kofi is eliminated, then almost pulled off the solo win after he gave Sami the Big Ending, leading to a pinfall. I quickly ran across the ring as Gotch and nailed an exhausted E with a dropkick and a quick cover for the win before Sami could even get out of the ring!
An absolute blast of a match. So glad that tag matches play better this year.

Anyone else thinking of changing everyone's minitron/ribbon to "Arena Movie" so that none of the graphics change in a created arena?
I mean, that's a big task to go through and do it for everyone on the roster, but I think it would be worth the hassle.

So, according to a few posts on Reddit, the way the submission system works is NOT by rotating the stick, but instead by simply moving the stick directionally (up, down, left right) toward the direction you want your part of the meter to move. The meter will automatically take the shortest route to where you want it it go.
I'm at work right now, so I can't try it myself, but if it's true, it would explain a lot of the frustration people are having with submissions.

So, anyone else give Roman Reigns his entrance animation from last year back?
Seriously not a fan of the way they animated it this year.

Picked it up at Midnight last night. Played a few matches. Beat Ryback for the IC belt with Owens, then lost a close back and forth match as Balor to Tyson Kidd w/Cesaro for the NXT title, then I played a quick match between Randy Savage w/Elizabeth and Adam Rose w/Rosa (random button selection).
Here are my quick thoughts:
-I love how the game automatically suggests tag partners/managers in matches where they are available. That's a very nice touch.
-I dig the new reversal system. It really forces you to play with some strategy, there were a couple of times during that Balor/Kidd match (especially in the late stages) where I would opt to take some punishment for the sake of having a reversal when I really needed it most.
-The new stuff before the match with no loading times is amazing. It did lead to some awkward moments in the first match when the game was still installing stuff in the background, so there would be some weird pauses in audio or it would linger on one of the prematch scenes for a little too long, but I think that was just first time loading issues, I doubt they linger now that the game is fully installed.
Overall, I liked what I saw during my short hour or so of playtime. Can't wait to dive deeper into the game tonight when I get home.

I know I said it earlier in the thread, but I'm thinking of putting actual wrestling gear on Arnold and using him from time to time.

I'm 50/50 on doing the Midnight release tonight.
On one hand, I have to be at work at 9:30 tomorrow morning, so by the time I get home with the game from Gamestop and install, I wouldn't have much time to actually play before I would have to call it a night so I'm not dragging tomorrow morning.
On the other, if I do the Midnight release, even if I don't get much time with it tonight, it will already be installed and ready to go when I get home from work tomorrow.
What the hell am I saying, of course I'm dragging my ass out to get it at Midnight.

Not gonna lie, if I can find it, that hauler may be my first Stackdown purchase. Maybe the nWo set as well.
I'm starting priced out of collecting Mattels, so I'm contemplating jumping to the Stackdown side of things.

The 2K forums are quality entertainment right now.
I get that it's frustrating that you can't just arbitrarily make title matches whenever you want in Universe Mode, I'm slightly frustrated myself, but the complete and total overreacting over on those forums is hilarious to read. People acting like it's some incredible game breaking glitch or something, after all the incredible improvements that have been implemented this year, the roster, create modes, etc., and THIS is the one thing that ruins the entire game for you? Come on.

This whole "no custom title matches in Universe Mode" thing is really strange. Why would they take something like that out of the game? So you literally can only have title matches on PPV that the game creates for you. So there'll be no surprise title matches or guys getting a shot out of nowhere. Considering John Cena has been defending his United States Championship on TV for the better part of the last 7 months, it makes absolutely no sense. I'm going to stick to my theory that I kinda suggested earlier in this thread. I'm thinking it was done in an attempt to make rivalries work/play out better, which is something people have been asking for to begin with. It's hard to let a rivalry play out with cutscenes and WWE.com headlines and such if you are disrupting the way it's supposed to go by just randomly making one of the matches a title match. I'm just taking a guess here, but that's the way I'm leaning.

I can think of two possible explanations for the inability to make a title match on a random Raw/Show in universe:
1: The guy may have done something wrong. Maybe the champ has to be selected first, or maybe the champ can't be in a rivalry, etc.
OR
2: Maybe it has something to do with storylines/rivalries this year. I remember seeing a Wyatt/Rollins match someone played in Universe, and afterwards it popped up a news story about how Wyatt was now #1 contender after a strong showing against the champ, so maybe for the sake of rivalries playing out the way they are supposed to be played out, you can't "change the course" so to speak and disrupt that by randomly putting the title on the line.
