Vampiro69 Posted August 20, 2005 Author Report Posted August 20, 2005 I was wondering where that team came from. Curses, you are now ahead of me!
DrVenkman PhD Posted August 21, 2005 Report Posted August 21, 2005 I'm taking a chance next week... I have a 10 person roster with a lot of cheaper guys, hoping for another fluke like before with the Hearth Throbs getting so many points on Raw. I figure at the very least I'll get Heat points for once, although Conway has been showing up on Raw lately and Masters may be back this week too. I assume 5 of these guys will be champs this week too, so maybe some title retain points (maybe LOD will finally defend them?). Antonio, Carlito, Benoit, Masters, LOD 2005, Angle, Maria, Conway, Hurricane. Actually, I might not be taken as much of a chance as I thought... Antonio and Hurricane are the only questionable picks but they've been on Raw lately. Edit: Antonio is out, Nunzio is in.
Team Angle Pusher Posted August 21, 2005 Report Posted August 21, 2005 That roster sucks to be honest because you can get a lot more from guys like Cena, Batista and HBK because they major matches on Summerslam. With Antonio you never know if he even appears on WWE TV because one week he's beating the Tag Champs and the next week the whole storyline is put aside. Same goes for Hurricane, Conway and Masters. Only decent picks are Angle and Benoit.
DrVenkman PhD Posted August 21, 2005 Report Posted August 21, 2005 Cena, Batista, and HBK have not been wreslting regularly on TV at all since this season started (Cena only recently and HBK not at all since superkicking Hogan). I replaced Antonio with Nunzio on the assumption that he's going to get title retian points on Velocity doing the "Vito kills the guy then Nunzio pins him" angle for a bit but we'll see. Like I said, I'm taking a chance this week.
Vampiro69 Posted August 21, 2005 Author Report Posted August 21, 2005 I hate trying to pick a roster after a PPV. It is so hard to gauge what the heck is going to be on TV that week.
Xavier Cromartie Posted August 22, 2005 Report Posted August 22, 2005 I hope Never Kissed A Girl wins and then I hope he wins the entire thing so they let him appear on WWE.com and he meets all kinds of WWE guys lol while he has that stupid username. And the winner: "never kissed a girl!" <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm up to 85th place in the overall standings now.
Astro7x Posted August 22, 2005 Report Posted August 22, 2005 Thanks to the carwash scene I got points for Maria, SCORE!
Jericholic82 Posted August 22, 2005 Report Posted August 22, 2005 Well for the first time this season all the guys in my roster who were in PPV matches (thats all of them cept for melina) won their matches. Good thing I decided to pick Randy instead of Matt, as he got me 62 total points for the week (to slightly make up for the fact that I didnt pick Benoit-cuz they ddint annoucne his ppv match till raw last week- who wound up with 68) Im up to 331th place! ( a big jump considering I started last week in near the thousands) as I got 249 points at the ppv (if my calculations are correct) But still not on the week leader board sadly. But I was just 12 points behind the leader for the week and now have a total of 2043 poitns this season, 230 points behind the overall leader. My top scorer this week turned out to be Cena with a total of 72 from Raw and SS my points for week 10 broke down like this (scores grand totals of the week prior) Batista-58 Hogan-63 Cena-72 Angle-64 Orton-63 Mysterio-63 Melina-23 for a grand total of 405 points I cant figure out who to pick for this week (11) right now I have Team: IWC 4 Life Nunzio Angle Benoit Animal and Heidenreich (theyve been getting squash wins for like 4 or 5 weeks now every week, I assume theyll be at leats one more this week-cuz I guess this week Animal gives Heidei some LOD tights to finish his image makeover) Orton Mysterio and 4.5 mil left in the bank what to do what to do.
Jericholic82 Posted August 22, 2005 Report Posted August 22, 2005 I added christian figuring hell get arevenge match vs one of the mexicools this week and perhaps even finally win a match? HAd 1 mil left so I picked maria for the hell of it.
Jericholic82 Posted August 22, 2005 Report Posted August 22, 2005 ok, now my team consists of Benoit Angle Edge Christian Orton Nunzio Maria Animal Heidenreich hope thats a good team but i dont have much to work with with no matches announced for this week
fazzle Posted August 22, 2005 Report Posted August 22, 2005 Ugh. Last week sucked for me. I completely fucking bombed at Summerslam, and this is the first week since week....3, I think, that I actually DROPPED in my overall ranking.
DrVenkman PhD Posted August 22, 2005 Report Posted August 22, 2005 I'm steadily rising the ranks... I'm like 10,000th-ish overall now (I used to be 88,000-ish) and now in the top 10 of the league. I hope my "9 cheap guys and 2 expensive ones" instead of "4-5 expensive guys and 2-3 cheap ones" pays off. Assuming Flair is in the $3m range (I'm going to check now) I might drop Hurricane for him as he may have a match with Carlito tonight.. he is at least appearing.
Carnival Posted August 23, 2005 Report Posted August 23, 2005 damnit I'm starting to suck at this. It hurts to only get appearence points for like 4 RAW people. Damn you Vampiro69, as you are about to pass me.
RHR Posted August 23, 2005 Report Posted August 23, 2005 I have been lurking in the TSM top10 for quite awhile...but....maybe I can move into the top5 after next week....we'll see....
DrVenkman PhD Posted August 23, 2005 Report Posted August 23, 2005 I'll consider my experiment a failure for this week. Dropping Hurricane/Maria for Flair sucked because I only got one set of appearance points for Flair, same I could have got for Maria, plus Hurricane has a match on Heat. Conway beat Hardy though, so that worked, but man, should have picked Cena. Also I don't think Conway's elbwo drop was considered a finisher (probably will be for next week, I haven't checked the page yet for my placement). At least I had Angle. Hopefully my SD! roster works out (LOD 2005/Benoit/Nunzio).
Spaceman Spiff Posted August 23, 2005 Report Posted August 23, 2005 I"ve had Cena pretty much the whole "season". I wouldn't even think of dropping him, as he nets big points practically every week.
DrVenkman PhD Posted August 23, 2005 Report Posted August 23, 2005 The few times I picked Cena without a match being known before hand, he only got a few sets of appearance points. Ditto for Batista. I decided to stop picking the champions unless a match was announced ahead of time.
The Mandarin Posted August 24, 2005 Report Posted August 24, 2005 Good night for The Tag Team Divisions Suck. I had Cena, Conway and Angle.
Jericholic82 Posted August 24, 2005 Report Posted August 24, 2005 The few times I picked Cena without a match being known before hand, he only got a few sets of appearance points. Ditto for Batista. I decided to stop picking the champions unless a match was announced ahead of time. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> yea thats why I didnt pick cena yesterday and I got screwed for it, only winding up with like 30 points for raw. why did I go so SD heavy?
DrVenkman PhD Posted August 24, 2005 Report Posted August 24, 2005 Well, I sure ended up sucking this week. Hope next week works out better.
Team Angle Pusher Posted August 24, 2005 Report Posted August 24, 2005 I forgot to update this week but Cena, Batista, Hogan and Angle all won so I'm happy. On RAW Angle won and he attacked Cena, Cena won a special match, Batista will probably win a match, Carlito showed up on RAW and Chris Masters too. So not bad.
DrVenkman PhD Posted August 24, 2005 Report Posted August 24, 2005 The "You're Fired" match was not ruled a specialty.
Team Angle Pusher Posted August 29, 2005 Report Posted August 29, 2005 Hey hey we still have WWE Fantasy guys. I just realized that and I changed my roster just for the deadline. Here it is: Batista Carlito (wrestle Carlito!) Chris Benoit (I hope he beats someone this week) Chris Masters John Cena Ken Kennedy (....Kennedy...) Kurt Angle (since he's the no.1 contender and he needs to look good) Rob Conway (and this week he finally jobs again, wait and see ) Oh and WHOO I'm now at no.13 after I screwing around at 20 all the time.
DrVenkman PhD Posted August 29, 2005 Report Posted August 29, 2005 I took the cheap way out this week and picked HBK/Masters/Edge/Hardy since all 4 are in Specialty Matches, albeit against each other. That should get good appearance/match/specialty match points. I kept Carlito and Angle too. I only have Kennedy and Benoit for SmackDown! this week. Next week I'll probably go big on SD! since 3 matches are already known.
Vampiro69 Posted August 29, 2005 Author Report Posted August 29, 2005 Well I am in 5th place right now 2 points out of 4th. My lineup for this week is as follows Masters Edge Cena Angle Maria Hardy Orton Michaels Only person I am unsure of is going with Orton. But I think I can do good with this team for the week.
Jericholic82 Posted August 30, 2005 Report Posted August 30, 2005 Flair had to come out and negate the specialty points !!!!! (I lost 16 points right there) I had Masters-29 Carlito-24 Matt-17 Angle-4 (I should have picked Big Show as I orginally planned) Val Venis-0 (hope hes on heat) for SD I have Orton Benoit Ken Kennedy Christian
Guest Christian88 Posted August 31, 2005 Report Posted August 31, 2005 My team this week is Masters - 29 Carlito - 24 Bischoff - 9 Edge - 17 Conway - ? Val - ? Long - ? Kennedy - Has Match on SD Benoit - Has match on SD Heidenreich - Has match on SD Animal - ? Pretty damn happy with that team, although i didn put Animal in at the last second and he isnt wrestling, which sucks

Pretty damn happy with that team, although i didn put Animal in at the last second and he isnt wrestling, which sucks <{POST_SNAPBACK}> glad to hear benoit kennedy have matches on sd. val is on heat this week too. Hope Orton gets me some more points too. But I dont want to read spoilers
DrVenkman PhD Posted September 1, 2005 Report Posted September 1, 2005 I'm having a difficult time with next week as there are 5 matches announced right now, plus one more out of the SD! spoilers not to mention the fact that 3 of them are now specialty matches and 2 of them are title matches. Actually 3 are! I'll see what I can come up with but I think I'll ignore the Angle/Eugene match in favour of the Masterlock Challenge and SD!s announced matches.

As well as Masters as I think Shawn won't win the challenge so they can set up a Unforgiven match. unsure to pick Eddie or Rey
