Luke Graham

Hey guys! Luke is there any particular moment you look back at and think ‘smeg, I’d do that better’ and Pete when did you know you’d won 😂

Homerstar

For the next season will you be adding DLC characters? Also have you thought about including Custom Characters as well?

John Molden

Hey guys, really loved the series and the ups and downs, i was feeling them with you. As a GM, what is one decision you made which you regretted later on, and what is the one thing you would do different, i cannot wait to see the finale and a season two would be amazing.

Robbie Clegg

Is there going to be a season 2? This one was so great to watch, and will it be you two or someone else from the office taking on the winner?

Harriett (Manga Girl)

Hey guys! Going down a different route but what was your favourite song to listen to while making notes when planning the shows? Loved the air drumming moments! And thank you for making this series, it was so fun to watch

Kevin Fleuriot

Luke, why do you hate Bayley ? Pete, why do you hate Tucker ? What would you say was the hardest part of the game to understand ? Also, a question about production, how did you record the talking heads segments ?

Liam Leonard

Hi guys an idea I have is you could allow patreon backers of a certain tier to add 1 custom superstar to your my gm game and if they appear in the draft pool or free agents the person must be signed before you are allowed do anything else.

Alex Shaw

Can we get a video of ‘How Adam Would book’ this series or get him to do season 2 to put money where his mouth is?

Quinn Hogan

Luke. Were you playing up the complaining because like you got WAY more vetos then Pete so like pete getting one at the end was kinda fair tbh

Frogman Le Blanc

If/when you do a season 2, will you be versing each other in round 2 or will there be new GM’s joining the series?

ProdigalGeek

Since Series 1 was sponsored, were there limits to what you could do in-game that would hopefully not restrict you for a Series 2? Also, would you be open to playing MyGM with the 1.09 update and for a period of more than 15 weeks?

Reece Johnson

Brilliant series! When is season two coming out? I know you lads are always busy but this series definitely needs to continue even if it is with different people from WT.

Scarmack94

Where do you think you went wrong in the series/where do you think your opponent went wrong? And if you switched places (Luke running SmackDown and Pete running Raw) is there any one thing you would have done differently than was originally done?

Matt Kimberley

Would you be open to do a Wednesday Night Wars kinda show with WWE v AEW, obviously allowing Create-A-Wrestlers in to balance it out ?

Kevin Simpson

How do you feel by doing this series you have inspired upupdowndown to bring bck there on battle of the brands? Thank you for this series it has been great ad looking forward to another series (hopefully u are doing one!!) with the new update I think you can book more matches ad have tag champs.

Rannos

Which Dream Wrestler would you add to your roster, if there was DLC or a Community Creation

Callum Lucas

What improvements would you make to the GM Mode to make it better? Also, do you think it would’ve been easier or harder if you could’ve booked tag titles?

Darren Lloyd

Love the series and like the contrasting outfit styles. What led to the outfit choices and what outfits did you not use

Hannah Alan

With slapjack being the obvious no.1 draft pick for either brand, who's a likely second? Watching the series it was fun to learn along the way. Will you be going for a more algorithmic approach next season, or is there still an appeal to get over some of your favs? #lotsoffun #lotsoflove

Vault-Tec Doormamu

(Ignore the super king username, just doormamu is fine if you get to this question) How many episodes did y’all shoot a day? With the episodes being over 25-30 minutes each, and the update, you didn’t film them all in one batch.

Darren Lloyd

Would you do a harder difficulty in season 2 to have tag champs

Stephen Reilly

My partner and I have had a lot of crash issues on PS4 resulting in loss of data. Is this something you've run into on PS5? If so how did you resolve it. Great show, its inspired a rivalry in my home. I just can't beat my GF who is wrestling and gaming Noob

Irving Sanchez

Hey guys, I really loved this series was really funny. Specially seeing Luke getting *PEEEP* 90% of the time (I’m sure the editors loved that). Anyways my question is… Are you planning doing future seasons with other members of the wrestletalk crew? I would love to see Laurie just unhinged in utter rage while Sully just laughs while doing an accent.

Jacob Smith

Hey guys! Absolutely loved the series. After the draft episode came out I was having a really rough day mentally, and having heard me gush about how great the game looked from seeing you guys play it my fiance bought me a copy to cheer me up and that it did. So thanks guys for helping me through that day. Anyway, I was wondering were there any decisions you made about formatting the show you wish you had done differently, or things you would change going into Season 2 if that were to happen? For instance, the time limit adds a lot of pressure and hilarity to both sides of course and I think helps Monday Night War stand out, but is it something you would handle differently given the chance?

Chris Smith

First off, I just wanted to brag about winning a 15 week season using only women for my roster. My question is can you draft your CAWs next season instead of making them GMs?

Phillip Jesurun

Awesome stuff, guys! Made for excellent lunchtime viewing here on the east coast of the U.S.! If a Season 2 gets the green light, would you make it longer (either have more weeks in the series or maybe doing two weeks per episode?) or would you perhaps humor the idea of increasing the difficulty? Grivalries must row, after all.

Greg Cherry

I’d love to see a series 2 of nothing but CAW characters. Maybe include people from CBW, NRB and QuizzleMania as the roster. What is the one feature that you’d like to see added to the GM Mode that isn’t a part of the game?

Wyatt Yappel

Absolutely love this series!! Not sure if this would work but i know you all are very busy so to help lighten the load maybe do tag GM mode? Like 2v2 but switch each week. You could either work together or switch in blind to book together without communicating, which would be hilarious😂 Cant wait for more either way love you guys!

Zachary White

Thank you for the very entertaining series guys! If there’s a part two, Pete can you pick tucker and slapjack? And Luke can you sign brute force? MVPs of season 1

Matthew Moses

Why did you implement the 7 minute time limit? I think if there's a season 2, that's really the only aspect I would change. I think it'd be better if maybe just have each of you leave the room while the other books their show stess-free under no time limit.

Wig92

Big fan of this series and think you two have fantastic chemistry together - like pretty much everyone who's commented I would very much welcome a second season and would love to see how you intend to take things up a notch. My question is pretty straightforward - have you both figured out how grivalries row yet?

Daniel McAvoy

Big fan of the series too. Luke and Pete work great together. i love to have a second season too. I wouldn't change much. I would go 10 minutes like Matthew Moses said earlier. I know it would take long but watch some of the matches. Love to see GM interfer in their match. I love the way it is. I know it would take too long every week. Just have a balance roster. Miss Big E not being on either rosters too. Have a great week. Daniel McAvoy

Steve Suess

Great stuff so far guys! Would you consider a second season with CAWs of AEW wrestlers? I get why you wouldn't include them in the 2k-sponsored first season, but I think it would be a cool new twist (in addition to some of the updates - i.e. tag titles - that have come since you started the series).

Stew Sizer

Loved this series, more please! Season 2, 3, 4, how ever many you can. Maybe have the winner stay and the loser replaced by another team member. :)

Andrew Wright

Love the series. Can't wait for you guys to do another one. My question is , would you consider adding your created wrestlers to the draft pool? I think it would be really funny.

Brett Storm

Really enjoyed this series. Loved watching all the mistakes (some that I myself have made too) and you two learning more about the game as time went on. What do both of you think was the biggest success and failure of each of your own shows and Pete, why is it upsetting everyone on your roster? lol

Alun S

It was an enthralling series to watch. Part of it was that it was a new mode with new rules so most people who weren't playing GM mode were discovering it alongside you both. I might be alone in this but I enjoyed the 7 minute timer; it added urgency and gave something for the person listening to the music to do (plan the show.) I'm not sure if it'll be the same with two experts gaming the system but the discovery with the highs and lows really delivered. Hopefully you may do a second series of this but not sure how you'd top this one. What do you think, would you rather learn the systems by playing through it or know well in advance what each system does before filming?
