Wrestler fame in [[Paper Wrestler]] is determined every 24 hour period with the top 50 "famous" wrestlers receiving a special icon next to their name. Only branded wrestlers are ranked. To view what rankings are relevant to a wrestler - check the Rankings for a wrestler while viewing their [[wrestler card]].

Fame does not affect performance but affects the audience size at events.

====== Social Media Accounts and Followers ======

Social Media followers generate from the moment a wrestler exists in the Paper Wrestler world, whether they are signed or not.

===== Gaining Social Media Followers =====

==== Holding Any Belt ====

Holding a belt grants a flat 1 to 6 New Social Media followers per day held. This stacks if the wrestler holds multiple belts with a 1 to 6 roll for each belt being added of followers.

==== Due to Fame ====

Fame is the largest impact on the number of fans a wrestler generates per 24 hours(0:00 CST). Fame is gained at a rate of 

''X = (number of ranked wrestlers)-(current rank) 
''
at a dice roll of 1 to that X.

So for example if there is 110 ranked Wrestlers, the #1 ranked wrestler will gain 1 to 109 new followers each 24 hour period while maintaining that rank. 

''X = 110-1''

"Twitter Followers" also is a part of the determining factor of Overall so these two (Fame and Twitter Followers) have a symbiotic relationship.

==== Due to Branding ====

Being hired to a brand generates a daily amount of 1 to 2 new followers per day.

==== Due to Existing ====

Simply existing generates a daily amount of 0 to 1 new follower per day.

==== Being In Matches ====

Base "maximum" fans gained depend upon the event itself and if you are a winner or loser.

Winning on a Pay Per View = 15
Winning on a Broadcasted Match = 10
Winning a House Show = 5

Losing in a Pay Per View = 6
Losing in a Broadcasted Match = 3
Losing in a House Show = 1

=== Unique ===

If your wrestler has a negative "Unique" value, their bland personality will actually decrease this number per mark to a minimum of 1.

A positive "Unique" persona is a huge boost for Fans gained. Not only does it add +X where X is the Unique points but ALSO multiplies the maximum fans possible by this amount.

So if you had, for example, 2 unique points on a wrestler and they won a Pay Per View event

''x = (15+2)*2 = 1 to 34 New Fans''

Uniqueness of a wrestler can cause very large follower gains from appearing on TV, even if you lose matches over more bland characters.
