So, taking a page out of WWE's playbook (shocking, I know), I've decided to put together a fantasy rating system to "rank" SWF wrestlers. Unfortunately, building a team with a salary cap and edits and trades like WWE's would be migrane-inducing. Instead, after each show wrestlers will be ranked according to this rating system:
Storm/Lockdown/Smarkdown appearance (+3)
Storm/Lockdown/Smarkdown match (+5)
Storm/Lockdown/Smarkdown win (+7)
Board promo (+5) [to be added in the post-show update]
PPV appearance (+5)
PPV match (+8)
PPV win (+12)
All shows:
Title win (+20)
Successful defense (+8)
Specialty match (+3)
Specialty win (+5)
Elimination [battle royal, tag match] (+2)
Executed finisher/locked in submission (+1 each)
Finisher resulting in victory (+4)
Kicking out of a finisher/escaping locked in submission finisher (+3)
Foreign object shot [only when said foreign object's use is not inherent in the match; ie hardcore is a specialty match, but no foreign object points are awarded] (+3 each)
Final match on card (+3)
Disqualification (-4)
Suspension (-10)
Double No-Show (-15 for all involved)
Will this cause people to show more? Always use their finisher to win? Always kick out? I don't know, I'm not trying to change anyone's style with this, this is merely for fun. And always using a finisher to win is boring anyway.
Points are cumulative, so if a wrestler appears in a match and wins with, say, a roll-up, his point total would be 3+5+7 = 15. Without further ado [well, ado into the next post to keep it neat and tidy for updates], here are the results after Lockdown (and please, let me know if I made any mistakes):
