Some of this was originally written by Jae DVDVR MARCH MADNESS VIII March Madness started in 2009. I think. It was a bit messy with more emphasis on madness. In the second year it became the sort of Wrestler of the Year competition though it really isn't. The field this year is 80 entrants. (Entrants meaning man, woman or group from all over the world). I didn't really intend it to be 80. I had actually wanted 72 but math is stupid and I spent 6 fucking hours over two days getting the fucking bracket predictor to do what I fucking wanted. And so much moving around guys. I know that a lot of you haven’t seen shit from a big chunk of these folks. I ask that you at least give each unknown a shot before voting. A match or two isn’t asking much and who knows maybe you’ll find something you can watch considering how many of you are hate watching the WWE. And you are going to have like 3 or 4 days on the first round. RULES Eligible Work is from March 1, 2016 - February 28, 2017 Generally speaking one votes based on a wrestler's performances over the last year. People are allowed to argue in favor or against any wrestler, as well as post any video evidence needed to back up said arguments. However don't take shit personally - this is all in good fun, and any trolling should be recognized as such. At the heart of this - it should be about watching good wrestling and the exposure to more of it. IMPORTANT: If you take things too far, or become too much of a nuisance - you'll be getting a time out. So if you're trolling and having a laugh - my patience is very little. If you're being trolled, wake the fuck up. Above all: Don't be an idiot. HALL OF CHAMPIONS 2010: Rey Mysterio (Runner Up: CM Punk) 2011: Daniel Bryan (Runner Up: CM Punk) 2012: Daniel Bryan (Runner Up: CM Punk) 2013: Daniel Bryan (Runner Up: CM Punk) 2014: Antonio Cesaro (Runner Up: Daniel Bryan) 2015: Shinsuke Nakamura (Runner Up: Rusev) 2016: Bayley (Runner Up: Sasha Banks) POLLS OPEN MONDAY, MARCH 1, 2016

These are the 64 selections I have right now. I also have a list about 20 names deep that are waiting for me to change my mind and slip someone in (or when it is pointed out that I forgot a major name). I would say about 58 of these are firm. You will find out the official field on Friday but you can use this to start your watching. Alpha by first name/group name. Spelling mistakes are obviously my own Low # of matches or having almost no available matches easily available to watch are reasons I might eventually bounce someone. So there are a few people ear-marked for that. And if you work for the WWE, you are more likely to lose your spot than others. (Since - at least to me - the purpose of all this is for you to watch new wrestlers) I clearly and putting way more energy into this than I ever really should. And I am just setting myself up for disappointment... again

MAKE SURE YOU READ THIS BEFORE VOTING!!!! Since the field is going back to 64 - it is getting harder and harder to justify having 45 WWE affiliated wrestlers in the field. Especially when only about 3 of them had a legit year I would actually say was worthy of winning this. Now - I debated just making my own cuts but I am going to do this poll to at least let you have a say. No matter what - tough choices (well maybe for some) need to be made. KEEP READING ALL THIS BEFORE YOU VOTE This poll is only for MAIN ROSTER folks. I have CWC/205Live and NXT folks in their own separate lists I already have 12 "spots" filled for WWE MAIN ROSTER guys. They are: AJ Styles, Charlotte, Bayley, Becky Lynch, Chris Jericho, Kevin Owens, Roman Reigns, Miz, John Cena, Sami Zayn, Wyatt Family (Bray, Orton & Harper) and Cesaro/Sheamus. If they aren't in this list or in the poll - it is because I am not wasting my time with them. It is possible I spaced on someone but I just went through the roster on WWE.com so I think I am good. I mean I am already pushing it at 12 HOW TO ACTUALLY VOTE You may choose to vote for UP TO THREE people (It is the honor system so if it shows I can't trust you fucks - I will just end the poll and make my own picks) TOP TWO get into the tournament (the next two will be on the bubble and may or may not get in depending on the numbers.) Poll will stay open till the end of Tuesday (unless it is obvious who is winning)

Only 6 star wrestlers please ELIGIBILITY TIME PERIOD: March 1, 2016 - February 28, 2017

I expect you to watch that random Russian fed that is on Youtube and tell me who is good ELIGIBILITY TIME PERIOD: March 1, 2016 - February 28, 2017

All LU that was aired during the time period is eligible (so we don't have to worry about taping date for them) ELIGIBILITY TIME PERIOD: March 1, 2016 - February 28, 2017

Basically everything that isn't the WWE (TNA, ROH, PWG, WWN, etc...) I know it is tempting to just say "Entire CWF Mid-Atlantic Roster" but please be specific ELIGIBILITY TIME PERIOD: March 1, 2016 - February 28, 2017

My yearly debate of whether to include Dolph Ziggler begins anew ELIGIBILITY TIME PERIOD: March 1, 2016 - February 28, 2017

Oh God - I already have to start thinking about this Okay down to business I will be starting nomination threads in a moment: Usual breakdown: WWE (NXT is here), North American Indy (US and Canada Indy and includes ROH, TNA, etc), Lucha (includes Lucha Underground), Europe and Japan As per usual - guys fit in multiple categories and there isn't a set number of spots for each group GENERAL TOURNAMENT INFO Time Period: March 1, 2016 - February 28, 2017 Who: Man, Woman, Group/Tag Team ON OR ABOUT FEB 17 - I will release the names of the folks who will be in the tournament. I know one of the "complaints" has been not enough time to watch "lesser" known guys. I will give you a two week head start so you can do some prep work and not fucking just for WWE guys because they are dreamy ON OR ABOUT FEB 24 - I will release the bracket. Yes there will be a pick'em again. This will give you about 5 days to enter your picks. To answer a question I am sure will be asked - I do not know how many people I am putting in the field yet So yeah... that's it for now. Time to start creating Nomination threads
