Have you ever used the same card for two different wrestlers?
I introduced Freedom Fighter (regular card) as part of the Van Winkle clan to have them feud with my Four Horsemen-esque stable. Once this feud was over Freedom Fighter was jumped by members of The Divide (my foreign heel stable), injuring him so bad that het could never wrestle again.
The Divide later introduced Hammerhead as their golden boy. Hammerhead started using the Freedom Fighter gimmick (foil card) to get under the Van Winkles' skin and later, after het turned face, to honor the original Freedom Fighter.
At the moment I'm also running a storyline where Detective X (foil) is investigating who attacked Notorious BB, which will lead to the eventual debut of the Undermaster at Survival of the Fittest. The two Will have a Casket Match, which will have Lucha Underground rules (the loser is never seen again). A few months/years later I might introduce a different Detective X (regular card), since it is a codename that gets passed on to a different person if the first one dies.
Another example is when I tried to recreate the "Black Scorpion" storyline in my previous playthrough. Strutter was banned from challenging for Lazer's World Championship after their blowoff match. After that Lazer and his friends started getting attacked by the mysterious Brimstone (regular card), who eventually got himself a championship match. After the contract signing Brimstone revealed himself to be Jet Set Strutter.
A few months later the real Brimstone arrived in RnR and feuded with Strutter.
I also do the opposite, like:
Average Guy is helping his son Jobber Joe win a singles championship, but unfortunately the kid isn't a "Natural." When his father does win a singles championship at the tailend of 1994 Joe snaps and turns into Silvergod.
