WWE 2K22 MyGM Ep7: Will We Ever Get Good At This Game? | Monday Night War Season Two!

I just want to hug Luke, poor guy! Hug him tight, then whisper into his ear "Please spend money on advertising!"

Jive Owens is the Titus O’Neil of Monday Night Smackdown. No storylines to speak of, but what a nice charity man!

[@jessebarrett17]

The Jive Owen's bit is the greatest bit of charity work I've ever been able to witness. The man is a legend.

[@michaelkelley7826]

Dudes gonna main event and win the title at mania. Calling it

Truly, the Sarah McLachlan of Wrestling.

Move over John Cena with all your Make A Wish stuff... Jive Owens is the king of charitable wrestlers!

> Luke doesn't book the logistics that explicitly gets you more fans > "What am I doing wrong???"

[@TheMisfitChef]

Nothing about Luke leads me to believe he's a mess with no attention to detail. I get doing things for the "content", but there comes a point where it's annoying

[@blablablaa14]

@@TheMisfitChef Oh no he is really old and never played video games. He is this bad at this

[@arnoldkaran8965]

@@TheMisfitChef agreed. Luke is so annoying I have to believe it's all a work. He can't be like this IRL.

[@TheMisfitChef]

@@arnoldkaran8965 Oh, I don't find Luke annoying in general, in fact I quite like him. It's just moments in this series.

[@jeyrm]

😂ohhh Luke

[@yoshistarhunter]

important thing some people forget, in a call out promo, the person being called out IS NOT being used, so they get a full rest and can be in a separate match too. so if you want to further a fued AND rest someone, the call out is the best way to do it.

[@josegarza4202]

The JOC (Jive Owens Charity) help my fellow Texans learn how to two step. We had too many ppl with two left feet and he saved them from the disaster!

[@MoonMan2k2]

The JOC helped supply power to my hometown so we could do the Electric Slide.

[@Jam3sA]

Luke: King Nakamura, is there a reason you won't start any rivalries? Shinsuke: No-ah

[@daniel_howlett8153]

You may have already filmed TLC but if you haven’t can you please spectate some matches even if it’s just the main events, from experience the comedy they produce is brilliant

[@dkfcb3]

They already filmed the complete season months ago, nice idea for season 3 tho👍

[@slowmo99]

Luke got lower level rivalries on the card which lowers the match quality slightly. Also Pete met one of his optional bonuses for running 2 different promos with a wrestler popularity over 70. The bonus for that is 4k fans and a show quality bonus. That is why like had the better show but Pete still win the week. Logistics are absolutely massive.

[@tobybeauchamp2323]

Luke should of dropped the bigger ones he booked and saw if he could get the bonus from them.

[@andrewmurphy5055]

I will never fathom how Pete has the restraint to not leather Luke in the face with his idiotic “look at me” dancing. You have the patience of a saint Chopper

[@scottdempster7705]

LOL!

[@dlcdnl]

The Tyler Bate bit always gets me, lots of fun with this series

[@9thDallasMowerExpo]

Somehow I get the feeling Tamina is going to be kicked around for a long time after this. "100 grand?! 😆 F^*k off Tamina."

[@itsjustRob]

I love the Tyler Tyler Bate bit, every time Pete does it. Every single time.

[@chamelius]

Can we all appreciate Luke reaction, going through the free agents of: deep in thought & slightly irked, to, in a genuinely pleased surprise "Oh! Look at that! Mickie James is in the game. Delightful.", back to lamenting his current status of his roster option...

[@DaisuSaikoro]

I noticed that as well. It seems to be part of his charm but also his downfall as he can be so scatterbrained. Heh

[@timnovak698]

One thing I noticed is my show quality went up the higher level logistics I did. So Luke should invest in the higher logistics rather than other stars, that should help

[@georgefeliu2383]

Pete: The answer for Brooks is yes but in a tag team match this protects the rivalry while allowing you to keep your promise. Tucker is right because Tyler Bate would have given you a tag team for Wrestlemania You also need to use the largest stadium available. Luke is almost beyond help;but get rid of Brock. You need the money. Then you can make strives to win.

[@SteintheKid]

Who else was yelling at Luke to use the health spa on Lesnar?

[@abhikeswani1]

Pete did an advert bonus and got +4K fans. Also, Luke, you didn't book the final logistics thing (Yes I know you couldn't afford it)

[@grindstone11]

He just needed to take away the terrible mid card 20k match lol

[@benburke9355]

Luke mouthing the words to my favorite Spice Girls song is all I needed today...

[@gbox4t0]

The fact someone has already made that website is hilarious, what a legend

[@lod689]

Great episode, the interaction of the two of you always makes a good watch. How badly the game is played at times makes it even better! :) If either of you read these...two easy tips: if you get a "run-in on a champion" from HHH just make a singles match for a tag team champion and run-in on them...it will still count, one easy way to start a rivalry w/ someone, like King Nak is for you Luke, is have him run-in on someone who isn't in a current rivalry...it usually gets the run-in victim to ask for it.

[@jonasaugustsson7806]

Kudos to the person who actually made the website. You beat me to it!

[@RealBrizz]

Wait Pete really still doesn’t realize that the person being called out in a promo still can be rested?

[@JacksonOwex]

Hasn't he switched around callouts because he wanted to rest the person he first wanted to do the promo though?! They really ARE bad at this game!

[@blablablaa14]

So many things they don't realize

[@SJxPVR]

It's why I love watching this series 🤣

[@badnews2222]

The person editing over all of lukes swear words definitely earned their money in this video

[@kronic66]

Luke books the lowest advert tier and wonders why his show suffered.

[@iyadel-hout3527]

Luke being so bad at the game and never learning is both incredibly frustrating and entertaining

[@TheTrueNateHustle]

Can you explain what hes not doing. Because Pete seems to do everything the same as Luke but his results are better.

[@iyadel-hout3527]

@@TheTrueNateHustle Pete had the 4th tier of Advertising in logistics (Superstar Signings) while Luke had ZERO. Maybe he couldn’t afford to have the same one, but he didn’t need the TLC power card at all. He should have found a way to get better logistics. There are just so many things Luke could be doing better. Like, why spend 20k for a Midcard feud? Make it a tables match. Here’s another idea. If he was gonna spend cash on a power card, he probably should have gone for “Fix Match” card, made the match between Nakamura and Brock a title match and get the belt off Brock since he’s so banged up.

[@TheTrueNateHustle]

It's weird to me that show logistics is more important than who you have in the match, so why not keep the money and get Higglesby and Jive instead of Brock?

[@iyadel-hout3527]

@@TheTrueNateHustle That’s a question for the game designers, not me 😅. I think popularity does matter, but it seems more important for match quality and to determine who wins than getting fans directly. If Luke at least used tier 3 advertising (I don’t know what it’s called), I believe he probably would have had more fans than Pete this week. Definitely wouldn’t have been behind. You can tell it makes a big difference because Luke’s show quality was a C while Pete was a B.

[@jessebarrett17]

Been waiting for this to drop! It's my signal to go to Patreon and watch next week's episode.. right now! ✅️

[@dreadkalibur1613]

Honestly watching Pete Vs. Luke.. it's like WWE vs. WCW in terms of booking.

[@jacegarcia3255]

Not sure if you heard it Pete, but Luke said "Rose-alez"!!!

[@dbone3356]

12:33 $4,000. $14,000. What's ten grand between friends, right?

[@ThePhrozenGamer]

I would love to see this series continue , if you two don't want to how about Tempest vs Oli or Adam vs Andy.

[@zergy55]

I think it could be a good idea for both Luke and Pete to spend some time sitting down with the game without recording just familiarising themselves with the game. It could help them understand how to row grivalries. Even just watching a couple vids on how to play the game could be beneficial

[@JacksonOwex]

5:20 He's just trying to do his part in making the "stars of tomorrow", that IS what your show is all about isn't it?! Also TUCKY!!!

[@MarcoTalin12]

Hey Luke. A quick heads up here in the nicest way possible. The entire 4k fan deficit from this week was from the advertising logistic thing you didn't spend on, so yeah, it's still the logistics that's giving you trouble.

[@MrBrknsyt]

If Pete wins this season... I would love to see Tempest dress-up as JIVE OWENS to annoy Pete/Luke.

[@sukhisingh10]

This made my Monday. Love this series!

[@ohhhdear]

Luke, it could've been worse....tempest could have NOT booked the show instead of Pete that week and you'd be further behind 😂 but at least you'll always have mr. higglesby

Dont forget about Jive Owens

[@tripleparakeetshoes4613]

Pete said that Jive Owens is building water lol

[@dt284]

@partsFUNknown "Rosales" is actually spanish for "Rose bushes"

[@danieldeleon45]

is also an actual last name jajaja

[@randypeace6691]

Poor Luke. Are we tuning in now to see how he mucks it up next? lol

[@JacksonOwex]

Can Season 3 be Pete vs. Adam?! I mean Adam IS the one that does all the "How I would book [wrestling thing here]"!

[@EndParenthesis]

I understand that y'all are under a time limit, but it really would benefit you to read what the logistics (and their optional bonuses) actually do. Luke could have potentially gotten a bonus 25% to Show Quality as well as bonus fans and an increase to certain superstars popularity and morale if he had booked his logistics and bonuses better. Still a very enjoyable show thoguh! But yeah, number one tip if you want to get better is to pay more attention to the logistics ;)

[@whitmana]

Jive Owens is the backbone of the company.

[@seanreddy985]

It’s def true that DAD spends way to much time on enjoying music than his show cuz I spend most of his time yelling at the scream. Quit scheduling crazy expensive matches and you’ll have more money lol

I love the British idioms I'm learning!

[@irrsinnrainer]

[@minininja2792]

Happy halloween nerds!!!!! Also, amazing series

[@andymcdougall9385]

Have the devs given any reasons for not including triple threat/fatal 4-way matches amongst many other missing match types? Older GM modes had way more options for match types and being able to set wrestlers as managers for a match also helped big time in keeping rivalries going without the same matches week in week out

[@grahamcurran8744]

Played GM mode this weekend 25week game Mr.Higgelsby was my top star fued with the Rock at Wrestlemaina and he left the champ

[@danieldeleon45]

25:19 FYI: Rosales is an actual last name here in Latin America, so.... jajaja

[@belhariry]

I hope they make the GM mode in 23 like the one in 07. With the better roster, it'll be a must buy for me for sure.

[@mikeduncan3953]

Luke, Pete had better show quality because he had better logistics.

[@DieselofSteel]

Luke. If you use a health spa it makes the wrestler unavailable so you could have bought it and used it on Brock and it would have gone to your next most popular.

[@PapaCoco1128]

19:10 should have booked lesser logistics to get the bonuses, that would have won you the week, no doubt

[@Qbort.]

Use more specialty matches and more run-ins to get DQs or wins in non-DQ matches, tag matches to get more rest, use less stamina...

[@wxthomas3716]

Pete u should get the injury power card it would be beneficial to resting or getting your superstars back from injury

[@markharger8435]

Sorry man Slapjacks the Billy Gunn to Mr Higglesbys Rock

Instead of Rosealez, you should call them Rocky Rose 🙏🏼

[@poobrainpony6610]

the ranking every week is based on whos in the lead, without a way to sway 10's of thousands of fans a week, youll need a PPV to see a change in lead.

[@Afterthoughtbtw]

Putting less popular stars in a tag team with a popular one can be a great way to make stars out of them. I headlined Wrestlemania with a random gen I brought in one week one, and became a tag team champ on day 1. She was my most popular star in the company. So many better uses for them than constant charity promos...

[@lazypaladin]

Ah yes; _The Charity Gimmick_

[@renaissancemangaming998]

If you do a season 3 one of you should make a tag team champions of the nakamura’s
