I mean, I'm never not IN. Here's hoping this is the year @ness makes it to the finals against Baker-man, and I've gotta make a Sophie's Choice.

We can do two things at once! His idea sounded like a group fed to me. Still do it!

Can you draft non-wrestler entities? Like PPVs and random props (big gold belt)? Like could I book Big Gold Belt vs. Winged Eagle? Sid's Broken Leg vs. The Mae Young Hand?

If we struggle for participants.. instead of doing first round triple threats.. I say we do everyone vs everyone. People vote out who doesn’t make it to the next round. With 12 of us, we put twelve cards up against each other.. the lowest two votes get voted out. Next round of 10, lowest two. Sixth round should be a head to head where most votes win. Maybe have everyone vote for what roster hey want eliminated? A twist on this. We could have a ten poster league where everyone faces each other. Two points are rewarded to the winner, one point if it’s a tie. After everyone faces one another the highest ranked four posters go into a sudden death play- off (1st vs 4th, 2nd vs 3rd) which will determine our final!

In the spirit of WRASSLIN' how about all participants put up their cards, and we do it royal rumble style and vote for the one winner.

Call me old fashioned, but I have no interest in doing battle royal fashion. I love the tournament; the steals; planning detailed strategies that fall apart when I lose in the first round. That’s what I’m here for.

Considering how much voter interest wanes over the course of the voting tournament, the battle Royal idea might be actually be kind of genius. That way there's also an improved chance of jTjohncenaGOAT actually being able to see one of these things through from start to finish!

I get the tradition, but I think the last few drafts on PW have really dragged on. One never even got to the voting part. The funnest part to me is the actual drafting. By time we get to round II my heart is generally not in it. Sure part of that is I never make it to round 2, but still try and vote.
Anything to spice things up. I tried to do that internally with gimmick picks, although those are rarely over so I get it's a one man crusade.
