Good answer

[MT 915]

Is there some joke i'm missing?

[Blackjak 57]

It's the tagline for the PPV. Well, "It's time to kick ass and take names!" is. So commentary's said it ad nauseam, as usual... and it's even worked its way into some of the promos.

At the end of the season (this season ends at Survivor Series), the top three are the belt holders until the end of the next season. We put the Universal at the Top Spot because WWE clearly value that the most even though it sucks  

 

So Nick, Brianne, and I are the defending champs. But you're in good shape right now for a belt.

Also, that was a surprisingly good PPV. Maybe because there were such low expectations. Even the 40 people in attendance seemed to like it. 

[Psycho666Soldier 283]

Legit, not a bad match on the show.  Just a few slower ones.  That Kofi/Ziggler finish was insane. 

 

Actually funny because about 5 minutes before it happened, I was thinking that would be a cool finish somewhere in wrestling's future.  Kofi ahead of the curve 

[Blackjak 57]

I'll put everything together tonight.

[MT 915]

Why is bonus question 5 a thing? Isn't that answered in the question about who wins the match? Also, does bonus question 2 only count for the final 10 count, or any of them? I assume it's only the last one.

 

1. Rollins/Lynch

4. Gulak
5. Team Recycling

No, the whole setup has basically been that Nikki's done all the hard work to get Alexa a shot. And it's a handicap match, not a triple threat. It's implied that if Nikki were to get the pin, Alexa would still get the belt. 

 

But that doesn't mean that's what would happen. There's many avenues it could go if Nikki got the pin. Nikki wins, leaves with the belt. Nikki wins, Alexa leaves with the belt. Nikki wins, Alexa tries to leave with it and Nikki attacks her.

 

Or Bayley could win  Or Alexa could get the pin and leaves with it. Or Alexa wins and there could be a double turn where Nikki ends up bad and Alexa good.

Generally, yes. But it was added literally like 3 hours before the pre-show started. So too late for it. 

 

 

I've literally never heard of WWE Now, so I'm not counting something being announced there as being announced.

The only match we picked for that's happened so far is Gulak/Nese. So you won't get credit for that. You're good for everything else. 

[Eizan 126]

Ah ok. I don't know usually pay attention to stuff outside show results, I though it was added when he beat Balor Tuesday. My bad.

Just now, Eizan said:

Hmm... we used to have a rule specifically for this kind of thing, I'll have to re-add it I guess. Maybe make it be "Any title match added to the card within 48 hours before the show starts won't be picked, unless no picks have been made at that point." 

 

And yeah, I was expecting it to be, but it never was until today.

 

[Garlic Junior 136]

Yeah it was super last minute no way we could have added it.

 

Also, JJ, I told you I had a bad feeling about this one lol

Lets start thinking of any bonus questions for SummerSlam and Takeover this weekend. I'd like to get the Template and Spreadsheet finished by the end of Thursday since I leave Saturday morning for my two weeks in the summer with the Army. 

 

(This also means that it'll be up to someone else to fill in the picks in the spreadsheet that aren't submitted before Saturday morning and keep score of the events... since I won't even be able to watch the events, let alone keep score )
