This mod provides examples of:
* Creator/AndyKaufman: His wrestling days in Memphis are well documented in the game, and Kaufman appears as a character.
* ArtisticLicenseHistory: The author stylized the scenario somewhat, including a few then-deceased wrestlers who had died in the previous year, as well as making a few slight changes to historical rosters and title histories.
* BearsAreBadNews Ted, the wrestling bear, is included as a worker you can hire. Not surpringly, he has a complete "F" in microphone skills.
* TheCameo: Several of the celebrities that were a part of the 80s wrestling scene are included as well, not just Kaufman and Lauper.
* GameplayAndStorySegregation: The house show loops of the wrestling promotions (where they wrestle basically the same show various times per week) is condensed into a single weekly show.
* TitleDrop: "Who will be the first to cause ... The Death of the Territories" is part of the brief scenario description.
* VestigialEmpire: The Wrestling/NationalWrestlingAlliance, due to gameplay limitations, is not shown as a united network of promotions. The World-level titles are fully exclusive to one company and cannot be defended by a travelling champion. Ironically, this is somewhat of a TruthInTelevision for the latter days on the NWA.
* YoungFutureFamousPeople: Wrestling/TripleH (as Paul Levesque), Wrestling/KevinNash, Wrestling/TheUndertaker (as Mark Callous, although he would historically debut in 1988) and Wrestling/{{GLOW}} are included, among others. [=GLOW=] is in there likely to give its fans a women's wrestling league to start.
