A. Attribute List [ATR]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Before we start, let's have a rundown of what each abbreviation stands for. You
can check back to this section should you get confused with what each of them
means. There are just few of them. Here are they:
> STR - stands for Strength. This just basically shows the amount of damage you
can inflict on your opponent.
> SUB - stands for Submission. This just basically shows the amount of damage
you can inflict during submission holds. This stat also increases time you can
do submissions on one opponent.
> DUR - stands for Durability. This just basically shows how long you can
withstand your opponent's attacks. In other words, you take less damage from
your opponent's attacks.
> TEC - stands for Technical. This just basically shows how your superstar will
reverse your opponent's attack and grapple.
> SPD - stands for Speed. This just basically shows how fast you can sprint in
a limited period of time. Your quickness on attacking your opponents.
> CHA - stands for Charisma. This just basically shows the amount of your
finisher bar. Higher charisma means you can do your finisher in the shortest
time possible.
> HRD - stands for Hardcore. This just basically shows the amount of damage you
inflict when using weapons or objects. Almost all matches will allow you to get
weapons, but beware that when you turn DQ on, you might get disqualified
resulting in a loss. Turn DQ off in Match Rules if you want to use weapons
without getting caught by the referee.
> STA - stands for Stamina. This just basically shows the rate in which you use
always in any match types. If you have a high stamina, you can sprint for a
long time.

D. Increasing superstar attributes [INC]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In this section, I will explain certain ways on how to increase a superstar's
attributes. That is, by training your superstar in 24/7 GM Mode. This is
possible either before or after the week. For example, if you're show is RAW,
your day-offs are Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays and Non-RAW PPV
events. Select "Training Exercise" once you click any of the said weekdays. It
will look something like this:
There is a difference between Training Exercises and Skill Improvement. Let's
take a look at both.
Training Exercises only adds up to your stats (like TEC, CHA etc.) while Skill
Improvement will only enhance your skills on the ring like Fan Favorite
Training, Fan Heat Training and others. I recommend doing the practice so if
you succeeded, it adds 1% stat on that particular stat. If you pick Strength
Training, you will have to perform a number of Ultimate Control Moves within 1
minute. If you complete it, your STR stat increases by 1%.
Don't just increase your stats, also check out if the overall increased. This
only affects the superstars' attributes from GM Mode only. Their default
attributes will be used on Exhibition.
These items in the WWE Shop are the only items that can be bought multiple
times not unlike other items which are buyable one-time only. All the items'
