Did TNA/currently GFW have super scripted promos like WWE or do they have more freedom on the mic?

This is what I need. From the DEFENSIVE standpoint, I need help determining HOW certain wrestling styles react to certain TYPES of wrestling/MMA/Fighting moves.
For example: This is what is said about TECHNICAL wrestlers
So for TECH, I would give them 1s in Punch and Kick defense. But what about the rest?
Here is the full list of styles and explanations.
You can take your time and do one at a time.
So I would like to see
Technicians: Don't like to be punched, can tolerate agile wrestlers, ROUGH style wrestlers give issues, etc. Also, rationale would help
Fight Style: Changing this will change your wrestlers affinity for
different moves. The higher the wrestlers affinity for a move the less
tiring that move is for that wrestler. For instance, give a wrestler
the lucha style and he can do moonsaults and hurracanrana's all day long
but powerbombs will tire him very quickly. Give that same wrestler the
power style and he will find the powerbombs very easy but the moonsaults
much harder. He can still do them, and they'll do the same damage, but
they'll take more out of him.
Orthodox: A basic, all-round wrestling affinity with no real bias to
any particular style.
Technician: Favors suplexes, submission holds and moves that target the
joints. Low affinity for roughneck style puches and striking moves.
Typical technicians are Bret Hart and Dean Malenko.
Wrestling: Has the hightest affinity for suplexes. Also has a high
affinity for takedowns and legsweeps (eg Fireman's Carry, Russian
Legsweep). Low affinity for power moves like Powerbombs and drivers.
A typical user of this style would be Kurt Angle.
Ground: High affinity for submission holds and chokes. Low affinity
for most standing moves (the exception being standing submission moves
and rollups). A shootfighting kind of style.
Power: High affinity for power moves like Powerbombs, Headbutts,
Lariats and Drivers. Low affinity for most aerial moves, submission
holds etc.
Typical power wrestlers might be the Undertaker, Albert etc.
American: Another basic style, not particularly biased to any type
of move but leans more towards technical and striking moves than the
orthodox style does.
Junior: This is a nice style, almost a hybrid Lucha/Technical style.
High affinity for aerial moves and technical submission holds and
rollups.
Typical Junior style wrestlers are Chris Benoit, Chris Jericho, Owen
Hart and the Dynamite Kid to give you a few examples.
Luchadore: High affinity for high-risk, high-flying moves and
elaborate pins like La Magistral and Hurracanranas. Very low affinity
for power moves.
Typical luchadores are Rey Misterio Jr., La Parka and Hayabusa.
Heel: Favors dirty tricks and illegal moves. If its not strictly
legal, you can bet this style has a high affinity for it. Also the
crowd will boo you poses and taunts.
Mysterious: Think Tajiri or Muta and you won't be far off. An
unorthdox technical style.
Shooter: High affinity for punches, martial arts kicks, chokes and
submission holds. Low affinity for wrestling moves and aerial attacks.
Fighter: High affinity for Karate and Kick-Boxing style moves.
Grappler: High affinity for Jujitsu style throws and takedowns.
Panther: High affinity for aerial moves and martial arts strikes.
Giant: Think Andre the Giant. Headbutts, punches and kicks. Also
roughneck holds like Biting, Mouth Claw etc. Has a low affinity for
most grappling moves (even powerbombs and slams) and a very low
affinity for aerial moves.

right then, so what if I was to say an Orthodox wrestler (Val Venis/Christian/Miz) wouldn't typically do well in a match against a Shooter (Blackman/Shamrock/Nakamura) because their power striking and quickness would be overwhelming for competitors who do pretty much everything pretty well and nothing great but would do well against most Fighters (journeyman boxer), who although powerful essentially have no clue how to wrestle and aren't used to not getting regular breaks?
or that a Technician (Bret/Malenko/Storm) would have a good shot in almost any match against an Orthodox wrestler because of greater in-ring skill, but is vulnerable to the tactics of a Heel (Flair/HHH/Guerrero) who knows it's probably the other guy's day and is gonna cheat from the bell?
EDIT: that Naito pic reminds me, seeing cartoon Kenny Omega speak fluent Japanese is funny for some reason. must be how it feels for Italians to see Galileo quoted in English.
yes, I did just tie together astrophysics and NJPW.

I completely plan to get Fire Pro when I get a PS4. I like creating the wrestlers myself though so I don't know how much copying I'll be doing online. Plus isn't everyone going to have to be recreated anyways on the PS4 servers?

A mix of both. A lot of guys come in cutting those anti-WWE "I was held back but not anymore" promos. Eli Drake, Brodus when he was there, and EC3 are the best talkers I can think of. Moose is cool, nothing flashy but not embarrassing either. Lashley is so much better now and I wish he was in the WWE doing this same stuff.

Joe Rogan's podcast with Peter Schiff should be a good 2 hour listen for financial information.
