[Sickman]

Like your fed dude. How do you determine your match rating?

[graymar]

I use the following:
Number of fatigue points
+1 for feuds
+1 for title
all divided by # of wrestlers in the match.

For example, in a singles match if one wrestler has 3 fatigue and the second has 2 when the match ends...the rating is 2.5 (+3+2)/2.

Thanks for reading.

After weeks of facing each other, the fans wondered if Race and Bockwinkel could work together. Last week, Bockwinkel defeated Race and was attacked by the Alliance of Violence. Race quickly came to his former foe's defense. All four men put on a show with The Sheik bloodying both Bockwinkel and Race with foreign objects. Sabu looked to put Race away with his TRIPLE JUMP MOONSUALT, when Bockwinkel attacked him and put him in the FIGURE-FOUR LEGLOCK only to be disqualified. Farouk quickly escorted his men from the ring as Bockwinkel argued with the referee.
