Greetings wwe fam!

Lifelong fan who hasn't really been into the games since Smackdown vs Raw days. I want to hop into universe mode but im timid. Ive only so far dabbled into the showcase mode which I'm really enjoying.

Couple things I'm considering and I know they aren't really easy questions to answer, as they are opinion based. So I'd like to just collect as many opinions as possible.

1.) do you guys just pick up with IRL rosters and begin your own thing or do you start out with your own draft? 1b.) if you do a draft how do you formulate a fair method for the shows?

2.) do you have a set of rules you follow to maintain realism? Or do you just continue giving the guy you want to get the strap all of the shots? The DnD player in me wants to create some type of dice roll method that helps me make unbiased decisions.

3.) when do you allow yourself to play the matches?

I'm sure I'll come up with a lot more so anything else that you guys think of that helps maximize your enjoyment please share!
