Wow more great stuff. That first round was wild. I kept seeing LOW guys beating the COTG guys and then the first LOW team to lose is one I could see winning, the Briscoe Brothers. Nuts. Also nuts is how neither Gladiator team made it out of the first round. But Road Warriors and Young Bucks are a pair of tough teams. Mornin brother on_the_edge! It was definitely a wild tournament, and as you said, especially considering how neither Gladiator team got out of the first round. Bloodline & Encubus striking out really surprised me too. I'm hoping for some serious competition from this tag roster. Here's to hoping that they keep us entertained! Many thanks for being in the seats! Heavyweight tournament will be up in a few. |

Lack of blood..one star.  Fun tournament with an unexpected winning team especially with one's PIN rating. Lol. Mornin brother TTX! If they want blood, they got it! Starting with the (soon to be posted) Heavyweight tournament results, I'm going to be listing the fatigue counts as well. So the Sisterhood can see the truth that lies at the heart of combat! How about those Estorians! This tournament was their finest hour for sure. But now how long can they hold onto the belts? Rocks in a hard place, they are. Heavyweight tournament results coming up next, probably the most interesting and fun tournament I've run so far. A 32 man tournament that needed not 31, but 32 bouts to settle it! Many thanks!! |

Hard to beat Thesz when he puts the press on.  |

Legends running wild in that tournament. Mornin TTX! They really did. To try and balance out the strengths between the three major brands is always tricky and never boring. It was painful having Thesz wind up against Sammartino in one of the matchups, but I was happy Lou was able to capture the belt. Will be interesting to see how the COTG and INDY wrestlers answer. Thanks again for being in the seats! |

Hard to beat Thesz when he puts the press on. Mornin on_the_edge! This is definitely true. What really surprised me was how Jimmy Snuka competed. Really didn't think he'd get as far as he did. I'm toying with an idea for a secondary title, but with maybe a different kind of tournament. Posting the poster for the next card in a few. A thousand thanks for being a part of the action! |

Lou Thesz is the man! Every time I use him he's just damn near unbeatable. Now he's ABPW champ! YES! Mornin awsomsinger! I was pretty stoked when Thesz won. He is my favorite Legend and actually my favorite in the entire game. Really enjoyed his book too, "Hooker". As an ebook it was only 8 or 9 bucks. Here's to hoping he puts together a nice title reign. He's got his work cut out for him with Nosfera and Omen. Should be posting the results of card 14 at some point today. It was a ton of fun. Thanks brother! |
