WrestleMania: The Challenge - Page 6 - Wrestling -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

This.

I mean... here are the facts if you don't have Austin on your card:

★ WM 13 was horrendous
★ Bret doesn't have that many amazing WM matches
★ This match isn't for a title
★ It is arguably the #1 match of all-time

You just put it on your card for free basically! (Unless you went a different way with Austin but I am not talking to those people because they still have Austin ON THEIR CARD somewhere.)

ok yeah you have a point here =P. actually i forgot that match was even at wm.

(still gonna leave it as is tho, had a write-up sent in etc, cbf changing it)

Yeah our cards are probably very similar. The HBK match I picked seemed like the obvious pick given the structure of this, but based off of what others have been posting I'm not sure.

Which Cena/Rock match did most of you use? Couldn't decide if I wanted it for the title or not.

I went with non-obvious Taker and HBK matches because it made for a better overall card IMO and got more people into the mix.

I actually had HBK vs. Vince on my first draft (love that match lol) but had to scrap it at the end.

Why the hell are people TALKING ABOUT THEIR SPECIFIC MATCHES IN THIS THREAD? SHUT UP. I know this is a meaningless exercise, but part of this challenge is the frustration of making your lineup work. In the midst of this frustration, people are more likely to forget/not remember some classic matchups that make things work the right way. You're taking away from part of the damn challenge in the first place.

I'd like to go one step further and suggest that it's a disqualification of your entry if you're naming specific matches you used in this tread.

Recent posts have caused me to rethink a certain match on my card.

I'm just thankful Michael Cole has only been in one 5-star match at WM, so this isn't a tough choice on my end

Burdz,
I am pre-emptively informing you that your entry is not funny. Like not even a little.

You have to go non-title here to leave room for Hogan/Yokozuna.

Hogan/Yoko is not the worst title match in WrestleMania history. It's too short for that honor.

Wisdom teeth extraction surgery sucks.

I have cards for:
dnkyhunter31
Dylan
wesrwood
DWetzel
ucaclint
Eskimo-Sickness
teejayC
littlekeed
TrueNorth
LKJ (ineligible)
yankeys316
diskoteque
qbler
rublicious
spring83
tpir
thediceman (ineligible)
derwipok

As far as I know, there are no exact duplicates. It'd be pretty amazing if that happened.

Planning to reveal either late Friday or sometime Saturday evening.

Sigh...one more change. I got Foley and Owen onto the card after all, but it will no longer be a once in a lifetime card, nor will it be best in the world.

Also, the card I created before starting this contest is probably near the bottom of my rankings. You guys rocked it. A couple of the cards I got are just flat out ridiculous.

I could have had him, but the match was pretty meh and I went another way. I'll post the other six cards I have after the reveal tomorrow, I'm pretty sure he's on all of them one way or another.
