This week in my Ring of Vegas (ROV) fed, I am running my first annual King of the Ring of Vegas 64 person tournament. Wrestlers from Ring of Vegas, Lachikaras Vegas, and Combat Vegas Wrestling (CVW) are participating and this year's winner will become the first-ever ROV Champion.
Since this is March and I used to do a similar tag team tournament contest in my LOW fed, I decided to offer this as a contest to you with the winner receiving courtesy of Ring of Vegas a free 5-6 color card expansion set/non intro set of their choice. Or the winner could also instead select for example an LOW expansion, the recent NPWD set, next month's CHIKARA expansion, or basically any single item in the store worth up to about $16 in value. Your choice as long as you win the tournament.
To play, fill out the ballot below with your picks. Each wrestler's seed is designated in (parenthesis.)
Rules:
One ballot/entrant.
Ballots must be submitted before the first tournament results are posted on Wednesday night.
Ballots can not be edited after the first tournament results are posted (obviously.) Edited ballots get a DQ roll of 12.
Picks need to follow bracket structure. In other words, if you pick Robert Anthony to defeat El Generico in the first round then you can not pick El Generico to win a later round.
Point allocation: 1 point for correct first round picks, 2 points for correct 2nd round picks, 4 points for correct Sweet 16 picks, 5 points for correct Elite 8 picks, 8 points for correct Final Four picks and KOTROV Finals picks.
Tie Breakers: In the event of a numerical tie. The first tie breaker gives first place to the person with the tied for first ballot that correctly picked the biggest upset (in terms of seeding) in round 1. If necessary, the second tie breaker gives first place to the person with the tied for first ballot who correctly picks the highest seeded wrestler to advance into the Sweet 16. If the first place ballots are still tied after both tie breakers, then both persons win and each of them can select a free expansion set worth up to $16 courtesy of Ring of Vegas.
For this tournament I am using the ROH cards for both Adam Cole and El Generico.
Good luck!
