2k16 pro tip: use a repeating move to inflate your match score. For example, a fist drop will get you 300 signature points toward the match rating, while a delayed fist drop (which is just a fist drop x3) will gain you 900.

Can you do run ins via universe mode? As you select who you want to play after the entrances so I don't think so?

I know how to keep every NXT match from being a 3-finisher match.

One finisher isn't enough to keep them down, but 2 is. The issue is most of the top-line guys have Resiliency 3 which gives them a free kick out, and they are smart enough to not use it on the first.

So if you have a signature move stored, use it, then pin which may force them to use their resilience check. THEN hit the finisher and pin.

If you select "edit match" instead of play, you can assign your character before the match starts, so try that.

I am guessing you are talking about My Career Mode? If so, then you buy movesets (like John Cena's move set, so you get the AA, STFU, etc).

I haven't noticed any greyed-out moves in normal creation mode.

Thanks. I didn't realize that since I just jumped into career mode first. Seems pretty dumb to make you "work" for the extra moves when you can just make a CAW first, then just copy his move set to a Career character.

If I'm not incorrect, MyCareer characters all start with the same moveset, even if you import.

They do, but you can edit them right after the introduction.

After playing around a bit more, Universe mode breaks down if you try to get too creative.

I've been running an all-CAW brand, and an all-women brand. Some automatic rivalries just disappear before each PPV. If you try to set the rivalries manually, they reset after the first week. And, of course, the whole 'not being able to set your own title match' thing.

So far, the only way to play seems to be to turn off rivalries completely, and just set the number one contender the show before the PPV.

That being said, I like the feel of the gameplay. And career mode's cool this year. Even if it does take forever to move past jobber-stats.

How can I just change the color of attires (threads) without using up a CAW slot? If I want white Seth Rollins, I shouldn't have to waste a slot over it.

And MyCareer guys start without skills/abilities, so no second finisher or top rope moves, for instance. My guy is using the Tanahashi preset, but I can't do the frog splash till I get the top rope ability.

Correct, but at least when you copy from a moveset from the get-go, you'll get access to MOST of the locked moves in Career mode like grapples, taunts, corner grapples, submissions, etc...

So if you want a rookie Nakamura in Career mode, you can start with the Strong Style Running Knee finisher by copying the moveset from a CAW that has it. Suplex breakbreakers on Tyler Breeze all day from the get go.

Go to logo manager in community creations and push x to get a code, put that code in the following website and upload your photo in the correct format. Then you download it from the logo manager by pushing square to "go to my logos".

You know, trying to figure out to get these Storylines to work in Universe Mode (PS3) makes me wonder if that's why I never saw any real variety in the cutscenes in 2K14. It's just that to trigger them you needed to have a precise set of circumstances (i.e. crowd reaction, who's an ally to who, who's a rival to who).

You get more interesting things happen if its even face/heel alignment (10 on either side) and set the next months teams, alignment, status, number one contenders at the end of a PPV ready for the next TV show. Things will auto book with a little more logic.

One of the goals is to win the Rumble multiple times, I believe, so I assume you can enter it just like anyone else would when January rolls around and your guy's on the main roster.

EDIT: Anyone else notice that the AI this year seems really set on getting it's poo poo in? Balor ALWAYS goes for the shotgun dropkick over the reverse Bloody Sunday, and Owens is the same with the cannonball.
