Triple threat matches

[destruction420]

Is anyone else having very low ratings for triple threat matches particularly involving the ME and Legend wrestlers. I had Hunk, Spades and Merc at my last ppv and it only got 1 star. I've noticed it a lot lately just curious

Most triple threats in real life are garbage too. It is what it is!

I wish they would do away with them from the game or at least until the mid 90’s kick in.

I think you should get a good rating if you make it good vs bad vs tweener and there's at least a feud there.

But restricted to the 90s is a good idea tbh.

Perhaps some specific Triple Threat Feuds??

Spades vs Hunk vs VTC - Platitude Age

Brohan vs Valedictorian vs Buzzsaw - Wrestling Rocked

That's a brilliant idea! Triple threat feuds! Mind blown!!!!

I would like it if we could use our regular Feud cards in triple threat, so when I have Average Guy, Jet Set Strutter and Dude Brohan in the same match I can still apply the "Feud For The Ages" Flavor card.

I've never got above 2 stars, I don't think I've even gotten that to be honest

The big issue of not being able to use feud cards in triple threat matches is a top contributions to its failure as a good match.

The other problem is that as I understand it, the more competitors that are in a match, the more +1's it has to get to get a higher star rating.

Meaning that a 2-man match has a lower bar to clear.

The big problem for me is that even if I give a +skill manager to all 3 competitors, it is still very common for it to go "+1 good, +1 bad, +2 good, OVER"

Compounding that is the issue of not being able to add feuds to boost the result further.

So I'd imagine the solution would either have to be make it less likely for triple threats to end quickly, or lower the required "bar" to get over in order to have a higher star match.

Otherwise you're rolling the dice that none of the 3 competitors will hit the "win the match" RNG.

I know the pain though since even if I fill my main event triple threat match with Mercenary (90s), Flawless one, and HFK (all foil) the result still ends up with 1 star.

Specific 3 way feud cards are only going to make for a few sets of guys so trying to pump a lot out isn't gonna be easy.

What if instead you had some (expensive) flavor cards for 3 way matches that only show up when certain conditions are met:

Aerial Action: 3 High Flyers or Cruiserweights
Monster Mash : 3 ghoulies
Reinforce the Ring: at least 2 Hulk's
The Good, The Bad and The Ugly: one of each alignment
Etc.

What I've noticed more than anything is that it's usually the weakest wrestler out of the bunch that wins, or it's the wrestler in the #3 slot.

Like 90% of the time.

I really hate having to book triple threat matches in the 80’s and even early 90’s considering they didn’t even exist in the WWE/F until 1997!!! I end up having to use a tag team and a single wrestler and just pretend it’s a handicap match.

[Slashmaster]

I like to have the option to book triple threats, I use them quite a lot on the weekly shows. One thing that I do dislike is the default World Championship triple threat at Valentine's Day Massacre.

I used to have Battle Royale as my "season finale" and have the winner of the battle royal challenge for the title in February. Now I have to come up with convoluted reasons to include an additional person in the match each time.

I wish we could choose between a regular singles match and a triple threat for each of the P4V championship matches.

Yeah a little more customization of PPVs would be nice...perhaps simple a Title Match slot and you get to decide the format instead of just a fill-in-the-blanks for a preset.
