Welcome to Downey Games!, ...Rolling the Dice is still King here too! It's the first Downey game I have purchased, and after figuring out the rules it's a neat game. It takes from 2-4 dice rolls to play a "move". Also there can be cage matches and tag team. You can also do a universe and have story lines, pre and post bout events, managers interfering with the match. I bought the Minneapolis Territory module, but there are others.
Downey has two other wrestling games, an Ultra Quick and Vintage Pro Wrestling games.
I paid via PayPal and and downloaded the ebook less that 5 minutes later. Pretty fast service.

I think I am going to try Vern Gagne v. The Crusher this weekend, get to know the game better. I live in Minneapolis and watched these guys (Larry Henning, Mad Dog Vachion, Mr. M, Doctor X, and my favorite tag team, Mr. High and Mr. Low) as a kid.
If you check out the downloads at Brian's other website

tabletop-sports.com :: Where rolling the dice is King!

You can find 31 Title Bout board game down loads if you want to be nostalgic. Among these are Title Bout board game cards that Brian created for 90 WCW wrestlers in an excel format. Having been inspired after reading John Dewey's brief bios of boxers I remembered that these had been created around the time that the Trunzo's put out the last card release about 10 years ago and posted on a website that Brain had back then. I couldn't readilly find my old print outs of these but was happy to see the files still available on the web. I down loaded the files last week, as well as some kick boxers, and fictional fighters. Working on converting them into my game format. The Trunzo's old file for converting the board game into an RPG is also there.
