This is the last episode of Superstars aired in the US. I've heard that it will still be broadcast on WWE.com, however. I will decide if I should still include it in the scoring.

If they continue it on the website then you should because, y'know, you still count NXT and it's on the website.

That was what I realized as well, but more importantly I hope people on the Internet still have results and shit. I will not have time to go out of my way and watch the entire show on the website.

Seeing as how they record Superstars before RAW/Smackdown/NXT...yeah, I'm pretty sure results will still get posted.

...honestly, I'm confused as to why you think results WOULDN'T be posted.

Because since it's no longer on American TV, I doubt it would still be newsworthy.

I don't know, Heat was a webshow in its dying days and nobody did results for it at that point. We'll see.

I take it Tough Enough won't be scored either? Just a question because I know a couple superstars will be showing up each week.

Australia's broadcasts of WWE seems to have Tough Enough replacing Superstars it seems.

So whats the verdict for FMW then?

I already asked and he said it wouldn't be counted.

Sucks for Aussies.

So I just realized why no one signed up for the second league, Ro. I don't know why, but when you created this sub-forum, you set the permissions so that only members of the WFL group could see it.

Either way, it's open now (I messed with other permissions and moderator stuffs as well).

Tough Enough will not be scored. It is a non-scripted show and thus does not count.

Also, Sleg, DGS posted here once and he's not part of any groups. That's weird. I assumed all members could see this forum.

Scores after SmackDown:

Romeo - 21 (+4 Kofi Kingston, +2 Byron Saxton, +5 Wade Barrett, +8 Kane, +2 Vladimir Kozlov)
AVO - DQed

RCA - DQed
Leon - DQed

SOS - 17 (+3 Maryse, -2 CM Punk, +1 Alberto del Rio, +10 Yoshi Tatsu, +5 Vickie Guerrero)
Butters - DQed

Slegna - 20 (+3 Titus O'Neil, +2 Drew McIntyre, +2 Daniel Bryan, +8 John Morrison, +5 Triple H)
PX - 4 (-1 Chavo Guerrero, +4 Randy Orton, 0 Cody Rhodes, +3 Rey Mysterio, -2 Kelly Kelly)

Nick - 16 (+1 Matt Striker, +3 Conor O'Brian, +3 Heath Slater, +4 Undertaker, +5 The Rock)
Panzer - 14 (0 Darren Young, +2 Lucky Cannon, +2 Alex Riley, +1 Christian, +9 Justin Gabriel)

Four people disqualified. How embarrassing.

At least almost everyone else, save for PX who sucks at predicting, managed to hit the ground running. I hope we have a better turnout next week.

-Week 2-
Leon vs. Romeo
AVO vs. Butters
RCA vs. PX
SOS vs. Panzer
Slegna vs. Nick

Standings as of Week 1:
1. Romeo (1-0-0) 21
2. Slegna (1-0-0) 20
3. SOS (1-0-0) 17
4. Nick (1-0-0) 16
5. Panzer (0-1-0) 14
6. PX (0-1-0) 4
7. AVO (0-1-0) 0
8. Butters (0-1-0) 0
9. Leon (0-1-0) 0
10. RCA (0-1-0) 0

Isn't RCA & myself in 5th & 6th place seeing how we tied this week (noticably on DQ) But there needs to be a result of that clash.

As much as I don't want to cost myself points, since Christian lost his match in my HOT seat, wouldn't he be at negative points?

I'm pretty sure all the appearances negated his loss.

Oh. Yeah. Duh.

No. You were both disqualified, thus you both did not compete, thus you both forfeited, and thus both of you lose.

That is not the same thing as both fielding a team which earned the same amount of points to draw.

I mainly thought Rey would win cuz i figured Del Rio would win and hence, more faces needed to win but eh, win some and you lose some

Seriously Sleg? Editing my team name? Not cool.

Seriously Panzer? Continuing a joke past its use-by date? Not cool.

Charlie Sheen is never going to be past his use by date, Aussie.

and lolsleg

I shall continue to make Charlie Sheen jokes as long as it pisses Slegna off.

Fuck Charlie Sheen.

I named my team after Larry Sweeney. RIP.

Classy, Jeff. I just heard about it, Sweeney ruled in RoH.

And I'm not mad, Panzer. Just bored at the time. Fuck writing math papers.

Ok fine, I will continue to annoy Slegna for as long as he is bored enough to retaliate.

OH GOD WHY IS R-TRUTH BEING GIVEN A SHOT AT THE TOP BELT?!

I mean, it's nice to see them push different talent to the top. But seriously, R-Truth?

Same reason a Bella is Diva's champ. Sucking some McMahon cock.

In other news it was revealled that Sin Cara's debut into the WWE was a result of HHH creating a new department which looked to international talent to bring to WWE.

So if Sin Cara receives the same HHH treatment as those before him (Shemus, Swagger) he should be on the rise pretty soon. *Fingers Crossed*

Also Ro I hope my "Gamble" draft picks have gone up from the C that you gave me. New Nexus is back, Sin Cara is already getting chants, Swagger is keeping in the Cole feud and Bourne is still jobbing.

Oh and SUCKS TO BE AVO, without Edge his team is subpar.

Scores after RAW:

Leon - 17 (+3 Ezekiel Jackson, +3 Evan Bourne, +6 Sin Cara, +5 Jack Swagger)
Romeo - 5 (+3 Wade Barrett, +1 Tyson Kidd, +1 Vladimir Kozlov)

AVO - DQed
Butters - DQed

RCA - 5 (+3 Miz, +2 Dolph Ziggler)
PX - 0 (0 Randy Orton)

SOS - 6 (+1 Yoshi Tatsu, +1 Maryse, +1 CM Punk, +3 Vickie Guerrero)
Panzer - 8 (+3 Alex Riley, +5 Justin Gabriel)

Slegna - 6 (+2 John Morrison, 0 Santino, +3 Daniel Bryan, +1 Triple H)
Nick - 4 (+3 Heath Slater, +1 Ted DiBiase)

Obviously the big news coming out from this Monday's RAW is that Edge has been forced to retire due to his deteriorating physical condition. (Some other people should follow. *cough*Taker*cough*) You may find that your scores are higher than normal; because of Edge's retirement and the applause he got backstage, everyone who appeared on RAW and/or is on the RAW roster gets an extra +1, regardless of whether you could see them in the backstage segment or not.

The bigger issue is that this is a huge loss for AVO's team, which heavily relied on Edge last season to win the league. However, an even bigger issue is that AVO and Butters have not even shown their faces yet. If they do not appear by Week 4, I will start giving their teams to other people, such as Bryson.

Two surprising outcomes have turned previously meh draft teams into potential winners; the New Nexus - at least, Mason Ryan, David Otunga and Michael McGillicutty - have returned in a night where CM Punk was nowhere to be found, making Leon's gambled draft a winner for now.

Another is that R-Truth is now featured in the main event of Extreme Rules along with John Cena as a challenger to the Miz's WWE title. This provides a welcome boost to Panzer's team, especially when it is common knowledge that Truth is not expected to win the match. As a consequence, as well, John Morrison's stock has gone down. Sorry, Sleg.
