So i'm playing 2112. Cordanus goes in the Rigel Rumble last-and he throws out Mensar to win! Now i'm playing it like either he was thrown out or Mensar took a dive, but he legitimately did throw him out by roll of the dice. So then he goes to GalactaMania vs. Mandrill for the GWF title. And wins! Of course Mensar helped. Still. Now that's the man with the power. Can you imagine that storyline working any better? Or worse? So of course he took on Sir Ender in his first defense, and wins. But Wolf challenged him, beat Mensar for a title shot, and then beat Cordanus in short order.
I'm still just stunned Cordanus managed that.

Pretty cool. And thankfully perhaps that Sir Ender didn't win.

Yeah Rumbles play out very oddly sometimes, right now a running theme the dice have decided for me is for partners to be the last two man standing every year. Dibiase/Andre were partners when they came down to the final two, then BG/Kip James, when I did GWF classics I had Sam/Krakan as a tag team and it came down to them, Actagon/Proteus were a final, Dreggs/Mace, Skinhead/Prodigy, Bloodline/Encubus TWICE with each coming out on top and to this year where it came down to Havok/Payback.

I do agree that Rumbles work out in weird ways. In fact we've had bad luck everytime we've done one. The first one we did for a while Tanck won on his debut. Fortunatly the next one Killprey won, but it was on his debut. We did one to get rid of everyone from 2118 who wasnt there for the New Beggining. Vyper won a lifetime contract from the winners bracket, but in the losers bracket, Grovel absolutly destroyed everyone until it got to Nightmare who beat him. Archon went against Nightmare and won, again, unfortunatly, but we wrote him off as ripping up the contract and leaving for good giving it to Nightmare. Again they have odd things happen in them.

I don't usually like to book the Rumble winner to go to GalactaMania, like WWE. Because there's no control. The amazing part was he actually beat Mandrill. Thunder is having a good time taunting Mandrill about that in my fed.

I love that the dice will throw some curve balls some times. It adds a element of excitement when things go differently than you think they will.

That is a great story. had something similar happen in CPC, Transvoler lost the belts to the Upstart punks in their first title defense. Made for a fun story line. The Punks talked crap for a good month before the mandatory rematch which was a squash of course, but it was fun. Love hearing stories like that.

I generally use my Rigel Royal Rumble like a WWE Money in the Bank Ladder Match, the winner gets to get a title shot at any time in that year, not just a shot at Galactic Wrestlemania.
