2012 WWE Pink Slip Pool

[Ermaximus]

Since the 2011 edition will be ending in about 2 weeks, I am going to take sign ups now for the 2012 edition. I will take sign ups until 8:30 PM the night of the November 7th episode of Raw. This is open to anyone and everyone, but make sure you PM your selections to me, but also sign up in this thread.

Rules: You must select 12 active superstars (Raw, SD, NXT, Divas) from the active roster pages that you think will be be future endeavored/retire/quit from the WWE within the next year. If they are gone before the 2nd Raw of November, then they will not count. The pink slips start counting by the November 7th Raw.

Remember, pick 12 from that list. Darren Young, Titus O'Neill, Derrick Bateman, Maxine, and anyone else from the clusterfuck that is NXT Redemption is also eligible.

[Immortal Moose]

[Lock Jaw]

I will do it this year. I no longer have any inside information/sources since they threw me out of the company.

[Ermaximus]

Hmm, I will count Annonymous Raw GM as an active superstar. :shifty:

[Lock Jaw]

How can I be active when I was FIRED?

[What Would Kevin Do?]

Yeah, why not.

[Xero]

I am in. Will send my list in a few hours.

[Blakeamus]

I'm in.

[Tazz Dan]

Count me in buddy

[parkmania]

In for the win.

[XL]

A game where I can't be eliminated in the first week of competition? Count me in!!

[Ultra Mantis]

I'd love to put the curse on some more guys this year. Sign me up.

[Skippord]

[ddpBANG]

[loopydate]

I'm in.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>In.</font>

[VSG]

In

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

In. List later.

[Ermaximus]

I'm pretty sure Khali and Morrison are both safe picks for the record.

[VSG]

Your list made me sad :(

[Ermaximus]

Because of Kaitlyn?

[VSG]

Mostly her, also Taker.

[Ermaximus]

Dude, if you think Taker has more than 1 match left in him, then I will have to question your motiff.

[VSG]

Doesn't mean I don't want him around :(

[Ermaximus]

I'd like to see Taker It Easy weigh in on this.

[Ermaximus]

Also, someone force JERRY to sign up for this.

[VSG]

Screw that sock, I want to see DLVH84 in here.

[Graveler]

I just sent you my list

[Corporate CockSnogger]

So Taker counts if he just retires at this Wrestlemania? Because he would still be a part of the company I'm guessing with a legends deal or whatever. Similar to HBK now.

[Ermaximus]

Yes Iggy, that would count as valid.

[crazeewhiteboi]

Ill give it a try

[Ermaximus]

All updates made.

[DAMN iNATOR]

Count me in.

[In Exile]

Count me in, sent a list.

[Ermaximus]

Quite the showing this year.

[glanville6]

count me in

[Ermaximus]

Today is the last day to get your lists in to me. You have until 8:30 P.M. EST tonight or else you get dropped from the running. The game officially starts tomorrow.

[Lock Jaw]

I guess I should probably send in a list.

[XL]

I guess I should probably send in a list.

[VSG]

Just confirming whether you got my list or not.

[Ermaximus]

No, I never got a list from you.

[Jari]

Just noticed this and it's past sign up so I ask for permission to join at the very last minute.

[VSG]

No, I never got a list from you.

IT WASN'T MY FAULT!

[Ermaximus]

I'll allow it. You have 1 hour to get me a list.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

This is like an episode of 24.

"hmmm Jinder Mahal or JTG..?"
"Dammit Chloe I need that list of names!"

[Ermaximus]

Although Morrison isn't officially gone yet, I'm counting him as first blood for this years pool. Adios JoMo, go eat your luncn in TNA, and by lunch, I meant Melina's sloppy gooch.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

Can't remember my list at all. I think I might have left Morrison off though, cause I thought he was going to surprise us all and get his shit together. Gonna go check.

[Corporate CockSnogger]

Yeah I left him off. Damn.

[Ermaximus]

It's not "official" yet so no sir Gertner.

[Ermaximus]

Updated with the Bellas. Only 1 person had them on their list.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Wow we've all done pretty bad so far. Like half of my guys from 2011's list are still around too. So, I've done pretty bad in straight years.

Maybe that's a good thing that people aren't being fired all the time anymore.

[Innovator]

Roster cuts might be coming soon

[Me Like Wrestling]

the next to get future endearments is gonna a be that yoshi cuz they have lord of the tensai now and they doesnt need 2 japan wrestlings

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Yoshi is on my list. He keeps bitching about Lord Tensai on twitter. He already got squashed by him, so he should probably stop. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gone in the talent purge post-draft.

[BANNING IS BANNED]

BANNING IS BAND FOR MOD!

[loopydate]

Haven't seen it on wwe.com yet, but pwinsider is reporting that Goldust was released today.

[DLVH84]

I believe they only show names of wrestlers released. Goldust was a road agent.

[Evil Vito]

<font color=goldenrod>Bothers me greatly that I had the Bellas in the last 2 pools only for them to finally get released after this year's.</font>

[JimmyMess]

Not the 'Dust!!!!

[Sepholio]

Supposedly something happened backstage with golddust a couple weeks ago at Smackdown. No one is reporting exactly what it was, though.

[Ermaximus]

Scores updated.

I find it odd that in a half years time, the WWE has only gotten rid of 6 talents. This is highly unusual for them.

[Ermaximus]

Eli Cottonwood is out of here, but I don't think anyone picked him. Updated the list anyways, and other than that, roster cuts have been really slow this year. What's the deal?

[Triple Naitch]

Think I had Eli Cottonwood two years ago.

[Ermaximus]

Scores updated on what has truly been the shittiest year to do this game yet. 3 people cashed in on Maxine calling it quits.

[Ermaximus]

With the departure of Tyler Reks, many people gain a bit of ground on our leader. The better question is, does anyone care that he is gone?

On another note, does anyone know what happened to Trent Baretta? Is he still on the roster?

[Ultra Mantis]

Trent broke his arm (or in his own words his arm "exploded") in Feb / March. He came back at the last set of NXT tapings to defeat future grand slam champion and face of the company Johnny Curtis in singles action.

[Lock Jaw]

Did I ever enter this thing?

[Ermaximus]

Did I ever enter this thing?

Yes. I think it's time for another game of give a little as well, but with a twist this time.

[JimmyMess]

Did anyone pick Cameron? lol

[Ermaximus]

She wasn't even on the roster when we started this thing.

[Innovator]

Bump for Kelly's release.

[Ermaximus]

Nobody had her either, but 90% have Tamina and Kaitlyn listed.

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Score me one from 2012 for Derrick Bateman. #USAGUY

[SlickyTrickyDamon]

Updated my totals to eight out of 12.
