2006 Anderson Cup

[Tony149 0]

For the second year in a row the Anderson Cup will be held throughout the month of February on HeldDOWN~! with the Finals occuring at Zero Hour. Some changes have been made to the format. There will still be two conferences (Miracle Weirdness Connection & Los Infernales), the "invitation only" gimmick has been dropped in favor of a traditional playoff style format because of the explosion of tag teams not controlled by myself or Eski. If you would like to be involved in the 2006 Anderson Cup say so here.

 

The GPX are the defending champions but I don't know if they'll be available. If they are, and I'm sure Zack could work this into whatever he has planned for them, I'm thinking they'd be upset in the first round by Los Diablos de Feugo. The GPX are gonna beat them in the next few weeks so it makes sense.

GPX and NRG are fine by me. Keep in mind we also could use the reborn "Strong Stylin'" James Blonde and Faqu, who I've been tossing around nicknames for ("Samoan Tsunami" being one of them).

Consider them in. I also like the "Samoan Tsunami" nickname.

 

All I need now is 2 more teams. Team Heyross is high on my want list. I'm determined to get them paired up with the Sooner Bruisers at some point. I'll push them past the opening round to get that done if need be.

 

I'd also like to know how many of you guys would be up for writing some matches? I'm pretty sure I can count on Eski, what about the rest? I could have a tournament bracket up by the end of the week, or sometime next if I get lazy.

i may suck, but i will help

Feel free to use Team Heyross. I'm open to using TK/Reject, as well, but I'd like to see them at least get out of round 1 if it's no problem

[King Cucaracha 0]

I'm sure I could write a few matches if needs be, seeing as I'm heading the Tag Division and all.

 

Glory By Anarchy are more face than heel, btw. Infact, I should have edited stats by now to make them faces, but apparantly I haven't because I am a boob.

 

Also, isn't the Anderson Cup for the #1 Contendership at Anglemania this year? If it is, then that means no NNMX (who, granted, aren't there) and no Usual Suspects (who are on the possibles list), right?

[Mystery Eskimo 0]

Yeah, I'll try and help as much as I can. And yeah, Team Heyross-Sooners would be fun.

No. After what happened last year, with the whole why should the losers of the tournament get a shot at the title before the #1 contenders, I've changed the stip to where the winner gets a shot at the tag titles at AM instead.

 

Blonde and Faqu are on the bubble. If a face team is replaced, they'd be the first to go. The same for NRG on the heel side.

ZOINKS!!!! Isn't that how it worked last year? GPX beat Black T got the Anderson Cup and the right to face COD at AM for the tag titles.

Awwww!

ZOINKS!!!! Isn't that how it worked last year? GPX beat Black T got the Anderson Cup and the right to face COD at AM for the tag titles.

 

Yes and no. Remember when I questioned having COD defend their titles prior to AM because I thought it took away from the AC winners? Months later it hit me. The AC should of been for a title match at the biggest show of the year, not for the #1 contendership.

 

Much manly man love to those who've offered their services to write matches. I got some of our best and brightest onboard.

[alfdogg 0]

I think TK/Reject will be faces by the time this starts.

I was actually thinking today of adding a new heel team in the near future, that you can use instead of TK/Reject. They'll actually be feuding with each other, with the newbs putting Reject out of action at Climax, and then in his return, him and TK could cost them their tournament match. In favor of kicking said feud off, I'm going to put a different team in the 6-man finals against Brock/Heyross, who will be winning the titles, if anyone has a suggestion for that slot.

[Mystery Eskimo 0]

I'll take Docs-Heyross, sounds like a fun match. Otherwise, I have no requests.

[King Cucaracha 0]

I'll take Bruisers/GBA, seeing as I've got a direction I want the GBA to go in.

[Zack Malibu 0]

I'll do Blonde/Faqu vs. Black T, and most likely (depending on time) the GPX/Diablos match.

[Tony149 0]

The bracket has been edited to reflect who's writing what.

 

Popick, you said you'd help, so may I suggest The Heavenly Rockers-PR/SJ match?

 

Patty, wherever you're lurking, you've been excellent with the Boiz in the past and I think you can do some great work with the SCM, so I'd like you to do the Boiz-SCM match.

[Patty O'Green 0]

Seeing that you're giving me like a four month advanced notice, I suppose I can fit the SCM/Boiz match in somewhere. I had an idea for the SCM but I'd rather not reveal it in front of the unwashed masses who inhabit this folder.

[Stephen Joseph 0]

Ill take that match Tony.

 

Word. 4 month notice, I can write a blockbuster!

[Tony149 0]

Excellent. Every match now has a writer. Thanks to all of you who have volunteered to help. This year's AC should be rockin'.
