My picks are: Titan Storm (Love that name, I may steal it) Martial Arts Masters Towers of Pain Power and Pride Eternal Warriors Defenders Animen Invasion Big Things Hunters of Prey Claw Masters
I like how you pair the tag teams with different sets. Makes it really interesting for me to see how they do with others. And I do like the names for your teams as well. Some good thoughts on the names.
Looking forward to the card itself.

I'm going to put the tag show aside....will get to it some point soon I hope but I'm hitting 8,000 posts, so something big.......512 wrestlers big.......512 of my favorite wrestlers fighting to be King of the Filsinger Universe.
I'll be doing 8 matches at a time and as you can guess, this will be a while.
Thantos (87) defeated A.J. Styles with the Satanic Skull Smasher. This went back and forth for a while with Styles getting a long two count after the Rack Bomb. Thantos caught him with a kick into the midsection eventually and then used a Satanic Skull Smasher and scored the surprising three count. (Styles rolled snake eyes)
Rob Van Dam (LC) put away Amazing Mann (aCe) with the Five Star Frog Splash. This was a good battle with both wrestlers having chances but Van Dam never let Mann catch him with the Contortion and finally hit a big Five Star for the win.
Ace Arcadium defeated Anarchy (07) with Cheat Code (+3). This went a while and Anarchy made a nice comeback but finally Ace got Anarchy into position and hit his special finisher to get the victory.
Hector (24) finished off Jake Milliman with I Know Your Secret. Hector toyed with Jake for a long while beating him to a bloody pulp before finally finishing him off. He taunted Ace Arcadium saying he knew about his stone cold secret.
Duke of Destruction put away Bug Buster with the Grip of Doom. Duke was all action here as he worked over Bug Buster before using the Duke Deathdrop to set up the Grip of Doom for the win.
Endgame (25 for now) held off Mayhem Unleashed with the Ultima Leap. Endgame dominated but Mayhem did not want to stay down. He escaped the Rolling Figure Four and made a comeback. However, in the end, the floor failed Mayhem as Endgame regained control and hit the Ultima Leap for the victory.
Max Shield (00) edged Neuromancer with Maximum Impact. Shield kept putting Neuro down and Neuro kept escaping at the last moment. Finally, after Neuro dominated for a bit, Shield came back with one more Impact and got the three just before Neuromancer could swing his foot on to the rope in time.
Paralyze (25) pinned Massif after Permanently Paralyzed. Massif actually gave a big kickout from one Permanently Paralyzed but he could not gain control and eventually Paralyze did it again and this time got the three.

Ugh! First match of possibly the greatest tournament in FG history... And my favorite real-life wrestler is eliminated... Really? REALLY?
Seriously though, this is gonna be an absolute BLAST to follow... Without knowing for certain who's getting a chance to participate, right now I'm picking Shayne to take it all...
Play on!

At this moment, Pariah, even I don't know who all will be in...but it's going to be fun to roll and I hope everyone who watches will enjoy it. Also fingers crossed that 33 will be out so I can use Specimen, Epoch and Probation's new cards.

Hey TTX and Pariah!! This will no doubt be the greatest tournament in FG history! You wanted to do something big Troy - this is immense!!!!!!! Sorry about Styles - but man how flippin awesome will this be. And to your point if you can get the 2133 cards including Moog & Sentinel that would be huge. If I had to pick one - I'm going with Endgame - The Silver Shadow. As to your point Pariah - we dont know whos coming next - its virtually a bottomless roster. Outrageous Troy - Rock on wit cha bad self!

Bryan Danielson defeated Heracles with Cattle Mutilation. Danielson had all he could take from Heracles but somehow turned the big man's power against him long enough to lock in the Cattle Mutilation. Heracles tried to make it to the ropes but the referee counted his shoulders down before he could escape.
Coven Black edged Arizona Chance with Bite of the Vampire. Coven had a big challenge from the adventurer and nearly fell a few times but held on and finally caught Chance with a bite to gain the victory.
Randy Savage overcame Matador of M83 with the Flying Elbow Drop. Savage and Matador was a very close match and neither guy gave an inch. It took all of the might of Savage's elbow to finally put Matador away.
Nicodemus finally put away Lance Hoyt with Nuclear Winter. Hoyt just did not want to stay down. Nicodemus kept hitting him with move after move but Hoyt seemed oblivious to it all. Hoyt even got several near falls before Nicodemus caught him with the aCe Crusher and Nuclear winter to score the pin.
Tauran easily handled Agent Dick LeHart with the Prime Powerbomb. LeHart showed heart but little else as Tauran squashed him showing off a variety of moves without ever going for his finisher before powerbombing the big man to score the fall.
Murdok defeated Mighty Leo with the Centra Takeover. Leo dominated early but couldn't keep Murdok down and Murdok eventually gained control, battering Leo around the ring before two Centra Takeovers scored the three count.
Bruiser Brody smashed Pulsar Prime with a twisting vertical suplex. Prime gave it a run but Brody was just too much as he tossed Pulsar around the ring for a while. Pulsar looked to be making a comeback but an ill advised arm drag attempt was countered with a lariat and then followed up by a big suplex for the pin.
Zeta Grey upset Darkest Justice with a shoot takedown. No one was expecting this but Grey dominated the match. Justice did have one run where he caught Grey with Police Brutality and then used his Rod of Injustice but Grey would not stay down, came back with his finisher twice before using basic wrestling to score the upset.

Pierre the Enormous defeated The Crusher with the Ginormous Drop. Crusher gave it a good run and looked to finally be gaining control when he locked on the Crusher Nelson, but Pierre managed to get them both to the floor where he dropped Crusher through a table before tossing him into the ring and dropping down on top of him for the pin.
Aegis (A20) trounced Nigel McGuiness with the Centra Spinebuster. McGuiness never really gave Aegis much of a challenge as an Opening Salvo softened McGuiness up for the spinebuster and the three count.
Diamond Dallas Page (CA) pinned Minotaur (19) with a flying cross body press. Minotaur did not want to stay down so Page went high to surprise him and rolled him up for the win.
DragonMaster defeated Bobby Heenan (LC) with the Dragon Drop. Heenan actually dominated early but DragonMaster came back with the Titan Drop and Dragon Drop to take the fall.
Malice (10) pinned P.N. News with a front backbreaker. News kept it surprisingly competitive but Malice caught him with a powerslam and then the backbreaker to finally score the victory.
Paganax (29) squashed Invincible Krakan (87) following Ascent of the King. Krakan could do nothing against the Heathen Chief who tossed him around like a rag doll for a while before hitting Ascent for the academic three count.
Dalton Castle demolished Sir Ender with the Deadlift German Suplex. Sir Ender tried a punch which Castle easily dodged before knocking Ender down with an ax handle. After avoiding a clumsy dive by Ender, Castle hit a perfect suplex and bridge to gain the pin.
Nth Degree put away Flying Fred Curry using the ropes for leverage. Nth and Curry had a surprisingly close match but Degree caught Curry off guard near the ropes and used them for leverage to win.

Some fantastic matchups and of course, I am stoked that Coven Black is heading into the next round...
Cool to see some of underexposed talent like Zeta Grey and Nth Degree making their marks... And I'm expecting Pierre to go a long way in the tourney...
Fun stuff!

Thank...yeah in his bracket, Paganax is probably Pierre's biggest challenge. Be curious to see how Coven matches up with Danielson. Probably some more shows tonight.
