Re: WWE Fantasy Pick Em

I came up with this idea a little while ago and seeing the Rumble Pickem it gave me the idea to start it.And with the WWE Network coming I figured it will be easy for me to run this.

It will more or less be a pickem for PPVs over the entire WWE season, starting with Wrestlemania 30. I'm looking at having it like a fantasy league, looking at keeping it pretty exclusive with only regulars of the WWE Forum, whereas people come out of the woodwork for the Rumble pickem. I would be able to handle 12-16 participants. I figure there are 10-12 that I have reserved that I have regular members in mind of filling those spots.

Basic concept: With PPVs we will only pick the matches that are set in stone prior to the PPV going live, once the PPV starts at 7 PM Central time picks will be locked. Each correct pick will be worth 5 points.

Also for PPVs you could pick how the match ends: pinfall, submission, disqualification for an extra 1 point.

For Monday Night Raw the only match that will be able to be picked will be the main event/last match to go on, as it would be too hard to do the whole show. Those correct will get 1 point.

For Smackdown, it would difficult to do with it being pretaped, so the only prediction will be matches announced on Raw that will be done on Smackdown, those will need to be in before the tapings on Tuesday, so by 4PM Central Time on Tuesday afternoon, I'll say. Each correct pick will be 1 point.

The last possible situation is debuts or returns, you can predict a debut or return, which is good for 2 weeks. For example at the beginning of May I could predict that Sami Zayn will be debuting or Hulk Hogan will be returning, and for me to get the points it would need to happen in a 2 week span. Correct predictions will be worth 15 points.

To avoid from people always throwing out a prediction every two weeks, incorrect predictions will lose 10 points.

Last note on debuts/returns are if I see your prediction on a dirt sheet prior to your prediction it will not count. I read the dirt sheets often, so I will know if you saw it online.

This can continue to evolve and have stipulations added. Just looking to see who is interested. Those joining will be up to my digression, as you need to be a regular on the WWE Forum. I have an idea of who would join, so spots will be reserved for those who I think would join. This league would start at Wrestlemania, as that is the start of the WWE season.

Re: WWE Fantasy Pick Em

I'm down if you have a slot open

[Majingir]

Re: WWE Fantasy Pick Em

I'd consider it

[Chrisksaint]

Re: WWE Fantasy Pick Em

I'd be interested just have to make sure I keep up on the SD part of things

[almostbobsaget]

Re: WWE Fantasy Pick Em

I'm in.

And stuff.

Edit: A potential better/easier way to do Raw and Smackdown is to have everyone pick 5 wrestlers who will be "winners" before the beginning of Raw each week and the method of winning and score it that way. You could even tier the wrestlers into categories:

Lower Card (5 points)
Mid Card (3 points)
Upper Card (1 point)
Tag Team. (2 points)

This way if someone keeps picking John Cena every week because they know he will appear they won't get as big of a payoff as picking Zack Ryder to win via submission on Raw and Tyson Kidd to win on Smackdown.

It might be easier on you to keep track. ( especially if you're not able to be present for predictions) and will add a bit of a wildcard to the equation.

Just a thought.

Re: WWE Fantasy Pick Em

I'm only doing 1 raw match and only SD if advertised on raw. That's it. If a PPV match is really big then maybe give it more points. Depends what it is.

Chris, it would just be if it's set up/announced on raw. So like NAO vs. Goldust/Rhodes was announced on raw this week and taped yesterday, you could pick a winner right when it's announced.

Re: WWE Fantasy Pick Em

Also if there's anyone that I talk to on twitter that I don't recognize on here lemme know.

Re: WWE Fantasy Pick Em

And if I don't add you right away to the list I'm just trying to get a grasp of how many I was expecting from regulars. Might go up to 20 if there's that many.

Re: WWE Fantasy Pick Em

I'd be in, I tend to go back and forth between lurking and being active here (only been back into WWE since Nov 2012 so definitely not a regular participant) but interested.

Re: WWE Fantasy Pick Em

I'd be up for joining. So, would the "season" be from one Wrestlemania to another and reset after that one season?

Ok yeah sounds good forgot they tend to be announced early

It will start at Mania 30 and go through the Raw and Smackdown before Mania 31, then reset starting with Mania 31.

Only those, like this week on Raw they announced New Age Outlaws vs. Cody/Goldy on Smackdown, those are the only ones that are pickable for SD, as they are pretaped.

Re: WWE Fantasy Pick Em

Just updating my "reserved" spots for now, once I get a grasp of who's in, I'll know who else can come in. If you've posted by now, good chance, 95% you're in. Just make sure you're a regular poster in this corner of the forum.

Re: WWE Fantasy Pick Em

I flip around between posting and lurking. I have read every post in the Raw, PPV, Spoiler, and Dirt Sheet threads over the last 4 years so in my head I feel like a regular haha. So if there's a spot id love to join :-)
