The Wrestling Game Returns 2016

Don't know whether to Gambit Nakamura for Takeover or not, but I may as well. Last gasp to catch Mackem.

Mackem will probably have the most Rumble entrants. I'll pick my RR gambit when I know the full card.

im gonna gambit Nakamura for takeover and don't really want to gambit AJ as think hes gonna lose title but might as well try not finish bottom so AJ for Rumble takeover

How do points work for the rumble match? 29 losers and points will be lost. Do you get extra points for a winner?

I'll leave to you guys to decide the fairness of this but, if someone on your team wins how about +25 pts to that wrestler so it can basically guarantee that you will gain a spot on the board assuming it's someone who isn't shared between all 4 of us.

Sound Good?

I don't honestly think anyone we have will win the match but for added fun how about +1 pt per wrestler eliminated by a member of your team as well,

All my male wrestlers are in title matches, so I doubt I'll get many eliminations haha

Watching some of Raw and there is 21 wrestlers on the specific Rumble match advert so far. I honestly can't see anyone on our teams winning either, unless Vince just throws a fit and gives Reigns another go. (Theres a slight Rollins story brewing, but hopefully for the HHH match, and not so he can screw the authority and win the Rumble because that is boring and I don't have him in my team lol.)

I have Strauman, Rollins, Corbin, the Miz and Samoa Joe (think he'll be in the rumble) that can get me points by eliminating people. Do I lose a point if/when they are eliminated?

Also :- no gambit for NxT

I'm torn between Reigns and strawman for rumble gambit. I'm thinking even though strawman won't win the rumble he could enter between 12 - 15 and throw a fair few out gaining me a few points.

On the other hand Reigns is my captain also, and potentially lose a lot if he loses. I'll have a little think.

Gambit AJ Styles. He can't get beat down one week, buried in a promo the next and then lose his title. (if he gets dq'd that's cold)

nobody see AJ losing title and then winning rumble

Well obviously he can get beat down, buried in a promo, lose the belt if he then gets to win the Rumble yeah lol. my original thought was he is the only deserving main eventer of WM. But then he could retain and lose at EC as well and still main event anyway, so there's still that. It would be a sexy 50 points for me if he did win as my gambit. Minus whatever a gambit title loss is

If it does go down that way EC will be minus AJ. So Cena,, Corbin, Ziggler, Miz, Ambrose, Orton, Harper and Wyatt are left to fill 6 spaces. But Wyatt, Orton or Harper may be left doing their own thing, and Ambrose might be defending the IC. Harper vs Ambrose possible if Bray and Orton go on as a two for a few weeks before mania. That might be the next month of booking by accident lol. Cena vs 5 heels, seems about right

no losing points or gambits in the actual rumble

APOLLO IS ON THE BOARD!!!!!

Also if anyone is interested in changing anything this close to Mania (AKA the Last PPV of the Season) Seth Rollins does have a knee injury and is tradable.

can I swap Rollins for Wyatt?

Yup

and make Wyatt my captain please

Come on the swerve.

Wyatt is the most obvious winner of a match in the history of time. And it's going to be booked as a shocking turn of events lol. I thought WWE had moved on from this type of thing, as it realised that most people can see through the old style of 'you didn't see this coming because we never mentioned the possibility of it happening on tv' booking.

although it fits their long storyline, if Wyatt wins the title and faces Orton, it's all down to a lot of kayfabe luck and chance. Orton's revenge should have been a cold and calculated one, tearing the family apart before finally getting Bray at his weakest and destroying him when he trusts him the most.

Right now it's "ooh I won the Rumble and Bray won a title, that's a bit of luck we get to fight at WM"

Surely storylines are screened for these red flags. How can it have been Orton's plan to lie in wait to strike, if it's a fat load of luck that means they are in a match. Because that will be what is said afterwards, that it was his plan all along.

How does the points work in the chamber match? Points for eliminating people? Points for winning, runner up, 3rd etc?

Gambit Jordan even though I think Uso's might win. Might as well get risky now

Can I swap rollins for...a risky Dolph Ziggler

wyatt gambit too
