Tag Team Title Question...

Jimbo_from_MemphoPosted on 04/29/04 at 16:34:14

I'll go into this question acknowledging that I can force a wrestler to stay in my fed if I want to...but let's assume that I don't want to.  

What if one member of my tag team champions leaves the fed?  What are my options?  Is there a way for the remaining member to just add a new partner and retain the belts? Or do I basically have to vacate the title?

I'd like to hear what some of you guys have done, and what is possible in TNM.

Thanks

If one guy bails, you can use the Hand Over function to name the remaining member and a new partner as champs.

It won't show up in the title history, but you'll have new champs without vacating the belts.

or you could always use the "i" key when booking the match... to bring in the champs, even though one no longer "works" for you.

Except he already said he knows he can "force" them to stay if he wants to...=)

I believe in First Edition if you simply changed the members of a tag team while retaining the name, TNM wouldn't notice the difference in your Tag Team Champs and the new pair would carry on defending them as if nothing had changed.  I don't think this is still the case, however - the code that brings about the new entrances for teams seems to mean TNM can tell different iterations of a team apart because it stores the rankings under the Team Name + (Wrestler 1 & Wrestler 2) rather than just Team Name.

I could be wrong, though.
