Btw, our roster is already huge so by the time we all add our other favourites to it now I imagine it’ll be a crazy size. I might have to add a second show and each week just have a bunch of random matches with all the people who aren’t being used much at that current time to keep them happy and stop their morale from going way down and basically making them worthless to anyone who does want to use them down the line. It can be like our very own Superstars/NXT.

Or we can have a draft and brand extension with 2 people going at the same time on different shows. Then the 2 shows can have a rating war and make it more like a competition at the same time.
That's more work for you though. And it might get old fast. And we wouldn't be able to use everybody cause they'd be on a different show.
Whatever. Just ignore me lol
Edit: But whether you do all that or not, the 2nd show should be called Friday Night Bitch Fight

The only other Divas missing from our roster that I'd like to see are Brooke Tessmacher, Cameron Lynn, Tara, Beth Phoenix and Natalya. I only included the last three because I would also like to suggest a Divas Tag Team Championship. We certainly have enough teams with the Beautiful People, TnT, LayCool, Bella Twins, Divas of Doom, Chickbusters, Rosarita, Naomi and Cameron, etc.
And for guys, the only ones I noticed that we're really missing are mid-carders like Dolph Ziggler, Derrick Bateman, Kofi Kingston and Evan Bourne.

The brand split idea could be really fun, and we'd all get our turns a lot quicker. I would assume that the champions can appear on both shows, or just the world champion. Or even a second world championship being created for the second brand.
The only flaws I can find is running shared PPVs and Burke having to put more effort in.
The Divas Tag Team Championship was an idea that crossed my mind, but I thought that NFA's main point is the intergender matches, storylines and champions.
I can think of some people to axe so we can cut the fat... Most of my signings tbh.

I had that same thought about using the brand extension option and having two competing shows. After thinking about it for more than 5 seconds I started getting confused though. Like, would the PPV at the end of the month feature a few separate matches from each show or matches pitting one show’s people vs. the other shows people (in that case, who decides who wins those matches??). Then what does the winner/show who gets the highest ratings get? The choice to steal someone from the other shows roster? But two new people would be taking over right after and we'd just be doing another draft again anyway. My head hurts just thinking about it, lol.
The only way I can imagine it working would be like two teams with 5/6 of us on each side competing against each other over the course of say 6/12 months with either one person a month from each team taking charge for their respective show or everyone on each team working on it together (or the ones who can be bothered, lol) via PM etc. So there really wouldn’t be much in the way of write-ups and stuff (which can be annoying tbh if you’re not in the mood) but more of making it a fun little competition.
Anyway, for now, is everyone happy with JR and Booker as our announce team? Any other suggestions?

Two shows with two separate rosters just sounds way too complicated. But if you don't have to split the roster I like your idea of using the second show to keep the less utilized people happy. And it wouldn't be as much work for you since you would just throw them on the card without having to put as much thought into it as the main show. As for commentators, I vote for JR and King. I agree that we could cut some people as well. Maybe you could post the roster and we could nominate a few people and unless someone wants to save them, they can gtfo.

I'm fine with cutting this lot, due to them not being over and not being used enough.
Amasis - Face Billy Gunn - Face Chuck Taylor – Heel Joey Mercury (Injured) - Face John Morrison - Heel Johnny Gargano - Heel Ophidian - Face Val Venis - Face
And this lot because they're non-wrestlers/not being used.
Jillian Hall - Heel Joy Giovanni (Non-Wrestler) - Face Kristal Marshall - Heel Shelly Martinez (Non-Wrestler) - Heel Stacy Keibler (Non-Wrestler) - Face Sunny (Non-Wrestler) - Heel Torrie Wilson (Non-Wrestler) - Face

The 2 brands this is not nearly as complicated as you are all making it sound. The one and only downside to it is it's more work for Burke.
You can just split the PPV's down the middle, with one show getting half the segments and the other show getting the other. And if we decide to do a interpromotional match, we're all civilized people. I'm sure we can just talk about who should win and who should write it. And if you can't, don't do it. Simple. The winner of the ratings just gets bragging rights, and that is more of just an added feature than a goal.
The team thing just doesn't make sense. We can just agree on who gets what show that month, and agree on roster trades if you want someone the other show has.
Astro and T play too, and if you're inviting Zino, Angelwings, and Faker to join in, or if Mal, MC, and 1988 want to take a turn. 1 person a month makes for long wait times. We've been doing this almost a year and I've only had 1 turn.
I'm not saying we have to do it, I was just throwing it out there. But you guys are making it seem way more complicated than it really is.

The only person out of all the people that B said that I want to save is Chris Jericho. I'm happy with getting rid of Britani Knight too, if I need her I can always bring her in. It's not like there's going to be a bidding war over her anytime soon.

Okay, so it looks like we all agree that Amasis, Chuck Taylor, Johnny Gargano, Ophidian, Val Venis, Britani Knight, Joy Giovanni, Kristal Marshall, Shelly Martinez and Sunny can all go. Agreed? Going once, going twice... See Burke? Wasn't that easier than all of us going back and forth naming individuals we want to save every time they're put up to be cut?

Yeah, all those ones you mentioned will be wished well in their future endeavours unless someone wants to keep them.
I’d also like to add Sin Cara, Drew McIntyre, Alberto Del Rio and Ricardo Rodriguez to our roster.
