Some suggestions

While I tried to update the WWE wrestler exports, I have came up with some suggestions for a later build of TNM. These are all fairly minor (I think), and shouldn't be too hard (but then again, I'm no expert).

* The possibility to assign "triple moves", like Eddie's triple back suplex or Benoit's and Angle's triple german suplexes.

* The option to change the finisher-like maneuver's name, like Booker T's Bookend and Cena's Five Knuckle Shuffle. I know it's easy to just make up a new move with the exact same stats as the original ones, but it makes it a little easier.

* Also, the option to let the wrestler signal for the finisher-like maneuver, like Benoit does for his flying headbutt.

I know these are all minor details, and possibly not top priority, but I think they could add some nice flavor.

1) You can already more or less do this with the combo move feature.  For Chris Benoit, input the both the first and second move as German Suplex.  For Eddie Guerrero, do the same except with Vertical Suplexes.  This will cause the wrestler to generally chain between 2 and 5 (I think) together.  It's not exactly a triple move, but it's close.

2) This is an old request, and from my understanding it isn't very likely.  If you're bothered by Booker finishing a lot of matches with Soviet Suplexes, then just copy the Soviet Suplex, rename it the Book End, check it always being followed by a pin attempt, and change Booker's moveset to include it.

3) Not sure how feasible this is, but it sounds like a decent idea to me.

1) I will add this to Build 2. If only the first move for Combo Move is set, it'll be akin to a series of three (what's that affection with the number 3 anyway *g*?).

2) The reason why it isn't being done is because it wouldn't be consistent. It would be possible to rename a certain move for a certain wrestler as an active move. However, the fun part is when the wrestler counters a move with his finisher-like move. Then it would use the generic name instead of the given name.

3) This can and will be done for Build 2.

The affection with 3 you ask?  I'm not sure if it applis the same way to the wrestling world, but with the improv comedy training I've done, a pretty consistent rule is everything is funnier in threes.  For some reason, adding a 4th is too much and it kills the joke.  That's all I got. :)
