That was quick! But I think you forgot to put up a poll option.

Vastardikai 07-22-2022 08:37 PM

I count 16 entries. Headbangers and Headshrinkers are both in this group, and that could cause some confusion.

Oh FUUUCK that last matchup.

Honestly wasn't that hard for me. Great as MV are, the express are a favorite to win the whole damn thing.

Sheephearders vs Gangstas was the toughest one.

Mr. Nerfect 07-22-2022 09:19 PM

Who voted for The Nasty Boys? Show yourselves.

(Just kidding, vote for whoever you want to)

Bad News Gertner 07-22-2022 09:19 PM

Headshrinkers vs Badd Company was the toughest for me. I love both teams.

Supreme Olajuwon 07-22-2022 09:21 PM

Are “The R & Rs” supposed to be the Rock and Roll Express

Mr. Nerfect 07-22-2022 09:21 PM

I think the Headshrinkers are weirdly underrated, but I went with Badd Company because the stuff that peaks for me peaks way higher.

Mr. Nerfect 07-22-2022 09:22 PM

Hardest for me was FTR vs. US Express. FTR are among the best teams today, but the US Express was over man. Way more “significant.”

Bad News Gertner 07-22-2022 09:27 PM

They were extremely over. Then came the Bulldogs.

Their stuff as the SST's is really good. Those fucking squash matches.

The R & Rs were "Ravishing" Rick Rude and "Raging Bull" Manny Fernandez. They had a brief run as NWA Tag Champions. The R & Rs name was because they were feuding with the Rock and Roll Express, as well as the Road Warriors. A pretty underappreciated team.

#1-norm-fan 07-22-2022 11:55 PM

Oh shit. Well… I voted for the wrong team. Lol

#1-norm-fan 07-22-2022 11:58 PM

I forgot the Express was in the last group.

Vastardikai 07-23-2022 12:26 AM

I went with the Assassins, because they're a classic team. And I have an Assassin mask.

As good as the Hardy's were, I went with the Outlaws, because it is Dick Murdoch and Dusty Rhodes. Not really a hard choice for me.

Motor City Machine Guns was another easy one. And I hate to say it, but the most interesting part of the Headbangers was how they got that gimmick. The mental image of Jim Cornette experiencing Marilyn Manson is hilarious to me.

Went with Badd Company because they had some of the slickest double team moves this side of the Midnight Express.

I actually went with FTR over the US Express because, despite US Express being the first to come out to "Real American" and were awesome as fuck, FTR has the better argument for "Best Team in the World."

Voted for the Sheepherders, though it would be the most violent war of all time. Of all god damned time.

I voted for the Nasty Boys. I had to. I just have a soft spot for them. And I enjoyed their wild brawls.

Any other matchup, Dr. Death and Bam Bam cruise to an easy win. But they drew the short straw on this one. I cannot, under any kind of good conscience vote for anyone other than Beautiful Bobby and Loverboy Dennis.

#1-norm-fan 07-23-2022 12:31 AM

I hated voting again The Midnights in round one but Gordy and Williams vs The Steiners is peak tag team wrestling for me.

Mr. Nerfect 07-23-2022 12:41 AM

I went R & R over Assassins, although I think Assassins are probably more iconic, really.

Jordan 07-23-2022 09:25 AM

The only upset I voted for was The Gangsta's over The Sheephearders. I fucking loved it when that music would hit and The Gangsta's would start wrecking the ECW arena.

Ok yeah I remember them from the Thursday Watchalongs now. They seemed good. Paul Jones kinda annoys me though.

Vastardikai 07-25-2022 08:55 PM

So, the results are in. The Winners are:

1. The R & Rs via tie breaker. (I voted for the Assassins so, if I didn't vote, Rude and Fernandez would have won.)
2. The Hardys
3. Motor City Machine Guns
4. Headshrinkers
5. FTR
6. Sheepherders
7. Rockers
8. Midnight Express

Group C will be up here in a moment.
