2011 WWE Pink Slip Pool
 

So I missed out on this last time and I haven't seen anyone update or post a new one so, I wanna see about doing this again. Use this thread to sign up to be part of the 2011 WWE Pink Slip Pool. Will probably start this as of 11/1/10 or Survivor Series, depending on the participation level. I'll post more info later.

This is open to all who are interested mind you.

*Updated rules.*

Ok so this is officially going to start as of 11-08-10. So I will take sign-ups and your picks until 30 minutes prior to Raw this coming Monday night. That gives everyone who signs up ample time to think things over and get their picks to me. Now in the intrest of fairness, I will post my picks here so nobody can accuse me of changing my picks and their will be proof of who I picked, but for everyone else I will need the names of any 12 superstars currently working for the WWE. So with that being said, whoever gets the most picks right from now until the second Raw of November 2011 wins. NXT superstars do count towards this pool mind you. You're trying to guess who will be fired/retire/quit/etc. in the next year. Anyone who is added to the roster after the start date will not count. Guys who are currently injured and not on TV do count so keep that in mind.

First bitches

Dammit, Jayman. Ermax, how did you switch user names so fast?

2 internet explorers

What is this?

never done a pink slip pool

until now

Basically, you'll pick ten names from the WWE roster as of whatever I set the start date as, and you wanna see how many out of the 10 you pick get future endeavored/quit/retire/etc. I'll link you to last years.

<font color=goldenrod>Technically, the last one doesn't end until there is a definitive winner. However, the odds of that happening anytime soon are not likely. Most had a guy like Jamie Noble who was taken off the roster however not fired. He's likely a lifer as an agent.

I'd be all for a new one.</font>

<font color=goldenrod>For the record, here was my submission for the last one, which I sent in on 9/1/09 and still have going:

Abraham Washington
Brie Bella
<s>DJ Gabriel</s>
Festus
<s>Jimmy Wang Yang</s>
<s>Katie Lea Burchill</s>
Nikki Bella
<s>Paul Burchill</s>
Primo
<s>Slam Master J/Jesse</s></font>

That would explain why I haven't seen any updates. Well in that case, and no disrespect to CSL (I believe he was running it?), we'll do this one in the span of a year to see who can get the most right? A bit different, but somewhat the same concept.

I think I wanna sign up then.

Count me in.

Let's do this.

Definitely sign me up. When do we announce our lists? Is it two lists between each brand?

I'm thinking of starting this the Raw after Survivor Series and ending it next year at the Raw after Survivor Series so people have time to think about this. As for the lists, it'd be a total of 10-12 names across all brands. Not one for each brand.

I'm so in.

I was gonna sign up, or vote, or whatever it is you said but I cant stop watching the web cam loop you have in your sig

I'll do it

I'm in.....

Me too.

Does everyone have to have different lists or can you have some of the same as someone else?

im in

off topic but who is the girl on your sig?!

In.

Yeah, why not?

I would like to sign up.

I don't usually sign up for anything in the wrestling forum. But yeah, I'll give this a go.

Sign.

Most of the people on my list last time are still around.

So I guess I'll make a new one.

Is there still a place? Count me in, if so.

I don't know anyone like that so I have no idea what you are talking about good sir. I take it you're in though?

I'll sign up!

Me.

:'(

That could very well happen.

What is the policy on NXT? A lot of the people eliminated may not be fired but will end up in FCW. Is that tantamount to fired? I think there was an issue with Jaime Noble last time because he retired but stayed employed as a road agent and this is kind of like that.

I'll only count an NXT as being fired if they are actually future endeavored, much like Jamie was. If they are put back into developmental it will not count, but if they are put back in developmental and THEN future endeavored within the year, then it will count. The same goes for someone like Finlay. He is still listed as active on the SD roster, but is a road agent, but if the WWE releases him and you had him in your pool, it counts.

So basically the person cannot be employed by the company in any form?

Correct sir.

I'm in

:lol: I know man. I was just refusing to call you a piece of shit is all. So I take it you're going to join us?

MoFo, edit your list out of this thread and PM it to me. I'd rather everyone's picks be only known to them and me, even though everyone knows my picks.

Im In sign me up.

Ok so the deadline is 8:30 PM today and I have lists from 5 people, but a bunch more signed up. Is there something I'm missing? Do I need to push the deadline back a week?

It was Halloween weekend man, too many parties all over. I will get you my list by tonight.

I'll go ahead and push the deadline back until next Monday so people that have signed up have a bit more time.

Sign me up!

Do we need the lists in by then?

Lists will now be do by 8:30 EST next Monday (11/08/10) night. I've also underlined the names of the people who have given me their lists on the first post.

You'll have mine this evening

alright

I am in

do i PM My list to you?

Yes along with nude photos of Beth Phoenix.

Updates made to the first post. Still need several lists, but you've got about 7 days to still get them to me.

<font color=goldenrod>On the off-chance that WWE fires somebody this week and the people who have submitted their lists early (well, techically on time I suppose) have them on it, do we still get the points?</font>

Yes, I will give credit to those who have already sent their lists in and have said talent on the list, but if it's someone who hasn't sent me a list adds the released talent onto their list, it will not count and they will be asked to pick someone else. Also as a reminder, please pick 12 talents this time around.

i want in.

Do any of the old nXt guys count? The season 2 guys.

lol

Yes, but the only ones on the main roster are Harris, Kaval, Riley, and McGuilicutty so keep that in mind. It's up to you to pick 12 talents so if you wanna put season 2 NXT guys on there, be my guest.

I'm in

I PM'ed my list to you.

I'm in!

Updating this at work today. Still haven't gotten lists from The Jayman, Supreme, and a few others. Any lists I don't get by 8:30 PM EST tonight will be taken out of the contest. Just a heads up guys. Might swing something for Supreme, but that's mostly because he's a mod and would just edit his shit in here anyways.

Still need lists from the following people:
(or you'll be dropped)

The Jayman
Supreme Olajuwon
Aguakate
DAMN iNATOR
Geodude91
Rollermacka
Mike Adamle
Nicky Fives
Cool King
Lock Jaw
JimmyMess
Beth Phoenix Fan
Edward
Bigslimjj

I think DAMN iNATOR is still on Bizarro TPWW

Am I too late? I can send you my list right now if not.

Ok, this is now closed and has officially begun. Scoring will be updated every month in this thread.

And we have first blood folks. I'll update the rosters and calculate the points and post them up.

WWE has released Luke Gallows. He joins Shad Gaspard and creative team member Chris “Big Dick Johnson” DeJoseph, who were also reported as released today.

I got one. :cool:

They announced four more: Tiffany, Jillian, Vance Archer, and Caylen Croft (not Trent Baretta though)

So far I have at least one on my list but I don't wanna give away how many i actually have or who.

Big Vito and Ultra Mantis are tied for the lead currently, but a good majority of everyone else has 3 so, it's still anyones game at this early stage.

Does anybody know, who's releasing who?

Haha, I can't hear.

I heard more are on the way.

I had a feeling that they were gonna cut a bunch of guys lose to make room for the "new wave."

I got 2

Give us a full update on pink slip rosters of everyone, will you?

Oddly enough, someone actually put Big Dick Johnson and got it right.

Talent cut since 11/08/2010: Big Dick Johnson, Shad Gaspard, Luke Gallows, Vance Archer, Caylen Croft, Tiffany, Jillian Hall

Can you post the lists? I forget who I had.

Big Dick Johnson was on a WWE brand roster?

Thedamndest=2
Primo
Zach Ryder
Yoshi Tatsu
Curt Hawkins
JTG
Luke Gallows
Joey Mercury
Naomi
Maxine
Michael Tarver
Caylen Croft
Trent Barretta


At one point he was. I believe the Smackdown roster?

Nah, the links on the 1st page are not updated yet. No Big Dick Johnson anywhere.

He was definitely on the RAW roster page for a while. Within the last year.

I figured it was just someone trolling, but clearly they were serious with that pick. Now if only we could get rid of Hornswoggle and Ranjin Singh.

Also, why does Swagger's Eagle not have a roster bio up yet?

<font color=goldenrod>I wouldn't be surprised at all if only Jillian's talent contract was eliminated while she stays on as a trainer. It'd be kinda like Jamie Noble last year in that anybody with him on their list is technically stuck with them.</font>

I saved my list when I sent it, saved it in my sent folder.

I have a copy of everyones list saved in my inbox as well as on an 8 page printout on MS Word. No worries.

Oh but he does

lol

I wonder whatever happened to King Leonidas or Torrie Wilson's dog. Smackdown has had some crazy superstars in their day.

Nacho Libre had a page.

Remember FiFi and Hiroko?
