That Street vs. Rogers match was awesome. I was pulling for Exotic Adrian to pull off the upset but the "Nature Boy" is in an elite class. As a matter of fact if we are making predictions I am going to back Buddy Rogers all the way to the finals! Loved how Brody went through Black in short order. That was awesome. I am really interested in the next bout between two southern fan favorites and I am going with Magnum and the Belly-to-Belly for a big win.

Since I have not yet officially done so, I am picking RVD to win the entire ball of wax!

Another great match. The best of the tourney so far. Next match I'm pulling for the big old cowboy: Blackjack!

Thanks again for the feedback everyone.
Blackjack Mulligan (23) v. Magnum TA (42)
Great match up of the baby face against the heels was next. Allen is very nearly counted out early on after a vicious assault on the floor and crawls back into the ring a bloody mess. Allen struggles from underneath as the fans get behind him. Mulligan avoids a charge and Allen crashes against the buckles. Mulligan rolls Allen up for a two count with his feet on the ropes (R7/P3) before unleashing the CLAWHOLD. With the fans frantic, Allen makes the ropes (R7/P6). Mulligan is connecting with everything and even lands a deathjump smash. Mulligan then applies a CLAWHOLD in the middle of the ring and that is it (R7/P7).
Up Next... Steve Willams (26) v. Ted DiBiase (Glove) (39)

Looks like Milligan and Magnum had one of the best matches yet...
Gonna pick Williams over DiBiase... And I expect Dr. Death will go far in the tourney.

Good match. It seems T.A. couldn't get an upper hand. I'd say Williams in the next match.

Thanks again everyone for the feedback. I found it hard to predict a winner for the next match as well.
Steve Willams (26) v. Ted DiBiase (Glove) (39)
Friends, enemies, partners, opponents. Regardless, these two know each other well so the action was back and forth early on as you would expect. DiBiase strikes with a spinning neckbreaker that gives him a 1 count (R9/P2) and then blasts Williams with a LOADED GLOVE drawing huge heat. The referee counts to one and Williams is out of the cover (R11/P3). We go to the floor and DiBiase runs Williams into the ringsteps. Back inside, a second LOADED GLOVE shot drops Williams in a heap and busts him open. DiBiase hooks the leg but Williams kicks out at 2 Β½ (R5/P4). The assault continues in and out of the ring and DiBiase earns more heat with a chair shot at ringside. Back in the ring back to back second ropes elbows set up a spinning neckbreaker. DiBiase covers and this time gets the three count (R4/P5). Williams has very little offense and is out of the tournament in shocking fashion. With just nine bouts remaining there are plenty of big names who have yet to compete. Mascaras, Muraco, Rich, Gotch, Londos, Savage, Jonathan and Bockwinkel all will have their opening round matches over the next few days.
Up next . . . Roddy Piper (7) v. Greg Valentine (58)w/Captain Lou Albano

I enjoyed the last two matches. I was pulling for a Magnum win but Blackjack advancing is cool. It was shocking to see "Dr. Death" go down like that but good on Dibiase for advancing. Plenty of great names left to compete and I am really looking forward to Piper vs. Valentine, hopefully bringing back some memories of their legendary bout at Starrcade 83'!

Piper beats the Hammer my guess.
