Rules
For every WWE main roster Pay Per View (so no NXT), you will select a wrestler. If your choice wins their match you survive. If your choice does not win, you are out. You cannot select the same wrestler twice for the duration of the contest. Last person standing wins.

Advancing

You only advance when your wrestler wins.
Wins will be determined by the official result.
In the event of a double count out, double DQ, or any other situation in which neither wrester wins, people who picked either wrestler will be eliminated (as they didn't win).
You have a wrestler for the entirety of the PPV. If they wrestle more than one match, they must win them all to advance.
In the event a wrestler has their match scratched from a Pay Per View, all people selecting that wrestler will be eliminated. The selected wrestler would not have won a match at the Pay Per View.
In the event of a restart, the final decision will be the one that counts.
Preshows will not count.
In the event everyone left loses at the same Pay Per View, all players still alive before than Pay Per View will advance (The wrestler they chose will be unable to be picked again).

Playing
All you have to do to enter is send me a PM with your selection for the Pay Per View prior to it starting. I will do my best to keep the thread updated with the official card as events come around, but it is ultimately your responsibility to know the official card prior to your selection.

I'll do my best to also post a spreadsheet as the event starts for maximum sweats.

This will start with Wrestlemania XXX.

I think I covered any potential hang ups, but if you can think of another one let me know. Would rather get them all solved before they come up and it has an effect on the game.

Oh yeah, I said I'd do this but completely forgot. In.

Btw I think if a wrestler wrestles more than one match one win should get you through but it's up to you obv.

What happens if someone fails to send their pick in time? I suggest assigning them the first available wrestler on the official card by alphabetical order.

Maybe. Or maybe someone is in for LONG HAUL and is saving it!

I'm gonna go with eliminated, seeing as how you'll have 3-6 weeks to take the 30 seconds to send in a pm. Even if the card isn't official early, you still have a basic idea of who will be fighting with a few weeks to go.

Got a lot of entrants already! Get in everyone!

You are truly lacking in cutthroat sensibilities.

Everyone say it with me: 90% of the point of being alive is to exclude people from things. (So good call, Jim.)

I'll be in obviously.

This could make for a sick beat if a wrestler wins their match and then gets MITB cashed in on them. I like it.

Fair enough, I don't mind either way just figured it needed addressing.

Obviously I'm overstating the glory of exclusion from things, but I do figure it would be unfair for one person to submit and be eliminated for it and one person to stick their thumb up their ass and then rand a winner and move on.

I only just finally figured out who you were talking about here. I'm a little slow.
